Reach for the skies and enjoy a stopover at Top Farm Caravan and Camping Site where you can experience dizzy new heights when it comes to camping and glamping. There's summit for everyone at Top Farm: aim high with a cosy stay in a traditional shepherd's hut, bed down for a tiptop night's sleep in a camping cabin, or keep it simple and pitch up under canvas or in your motorhome or caravan.
The aptly-named Top Farm is just north of Norwich in the small town of Marsham, 20 minutes from the pretty Norfolk coast. It's been owned by generations of the same family and you'll feel on top of the world during your stay - seven acres of well-drained, flat land and views of the Norfolk countryside to make for some very happy campers. Keep your feet on the ground with a stroll into the woodlands of Marsham Heath, which back on to the campsite.
Top-notch facilities include a dishwashing area and a well-maintained toilet block with an equally well-looked after separate shower block, all with plenty of hot water. A chemical waste disposal point, electric hook-ups for pitches, a fridge/freezer and a communal covered area with firepit and chiminea are also ready for guests to use.
The eco-friendly camping cabins are enough to make anyone green with envy. Each is made with 100% recycled material, six-inch thick timber-insulated panels and doors, double-glazed windows, and comes with its own electricity supply so you can use the kettle, microwave and heater provided. They're all topped off with a nifty piece of private outer timber decking - we wood most certainly like a stay here. Baa-sk in your own shepherd's hut with woodburning stove and homely furnishings for a break to get you feeling warm and fuzzy inside…This is glamping without the pricetag too, so you'll feel far from fleeced and needn't be sheepish about treating yourself either...All in all, we think it's simply tip top.

Wave hello to north Norfolk's seafronts and lap up the entertainment you'll find for all. Less than half an hour from the coast, the five beaches closest to Top Farm will all have you diving in feet first with their top-quality bathing water. Try and refrain yourself from putting in an offer on one of the colourful beachfront huts overlooking the sandy expanse at Mundesley, while the Victorian pier at Cromer shows any seaside town 'just the way to do it' with traditional rides and entertainment taking place on and around the historic pier and in its Pavilion Theatre, along with ice cream parlours and Mary Jane's renowned fish and chip restaurant that's anyfin but ordinary.
You'll be on just the right track with little locomotive enthusiasts as you chug along to the Bure Valley Railway - Norfolk's longest 15-inch gauge line. The 18-mile round trip runs from Aylsham to Wroxham and back, and you can hop aboard at either stop (each are around 30 minutes in the car north or south of Top Farm) and it runs through many a market town enroute. Controllers-in-the-making will be steaming with delight as they spot the wildlife in the rivers and meadows along the way. The cycle and walking trail which runs alongside the line is a rail treat too.
Go wild at BeWILDerwood, only 13 miles away, for a creepy-crawlingly good day of fun. This is the Norfolk Broads as you've never seen before - from treehouses to tricky tunnels and storybook characters young bookworms will be wriggling to meet, the intriguing characters hanging around the BeWILDerwood forest put an interesting 'folk' into Norfolk, and kids will be desperate to get exploring!
For tiring the tots out or for simply some of the best ways to see the local area, walking paths and cycle routes are bursting around the Broads, while if you fancy dabbling in the water itself, canoe hire is also available for active and nature-spotting types. Thorpe Marshes is 30 minutes south by car where you can spy species of damsel- and dragonfly and Cockshoot Broads, around half an hour to the east, is brilliant for birdspotters.
Fifteen minutes' drive northward and you'll be tickling with excitement as you arrive at Blickling - a National Trust property which will have historians hankering to find out more about the area. With gardens to get the green-fingered positively emerald with envy and home to a book collection which will have library lovers falling over themselves, a day out at Blickling Estate is a must. The Muddy Boots café on site means everyone's invited for a scone, no matter how you get there…
Food, drink, art, history...if your group of holidaymakers have an interest every which way - a day trip to Norwich city centre will have them all going 'nanas for Norfolk and it's just half an hour's drive south from Top Farm.

Not everyone can afford to own a home, and there's nothing wrong with that. Renting a place to live, whether it's an apartment, condo or small house, still provides you with a roof over your head.
When you were 15, you probably fantasized about how awesome it would be to have your own car and drive anywhere, anytime. Fast forward to now, and you probably realize that owning your own vehicle is more work than play. Between check engine lights and weird noises, there may be times when you think you would be better off trading your car for new one. But, a little preventive maintenance can go a long way.

War stats
Original post made by Jag Singh, Duveneck/St. Francis, on Oct 13, 2006
To add insult to injury, Bush claimed that Iraqis are willing to be maimed or killed in the pursuit of freedom a freedom where fatalities have resulted in approximately, 'four 9/11's every month! Given the U.S. population is about ten times that of Iraq, this is equivalent to about 80,000 U.S. fatalities each month.

I went to "Iraq Body Count" on the web. It states that the estimated amount of Iraqi deaths so far in the "war" is between 44000 and 49,000. This is certainly a far cry from 600,000. Iraq Body Count seems to be somewhat liberal in its leaning, so it seems that it would be in their best interests to give the highest number they could come up with.
I think that someone is lying (as usual).
I find it disgusting that the truth is in the hands of mass media which has its own agenda.
I am neither left nor right. I want the truth!!!!!!!!!!1

Ontario man acquitted of charges in home attack says case sets self defence precedent
Ontario man cleared of charges stemming from an attack on his home, says he is proud of precedent set with regard to Canadians' right to armed self defence

Share via Email
OTTAWA—An Ontario man says he has been cleared of charges stemming from an attack on his home and is proud of the precedent the case sets with regard to Canadians' right to armed self defence.
Ian Thomson said a judge in Welland acquitted him on Thursday of firearms-related charges in connection with a 2010 incident in which he fired three warning shots at a group of men who set his Ontario home ablaze with firebombs.
Some experts say the ruling by Justice Tory Colvin could have wide-ranging implications for self defence law in Canada.
Thomson described the two-and-a-half year legal battle as a "horrible ordeal."
"I firmly believe they wanted to make an example of me, and to put the fear into every Canadian firearm owner that you are not allowed to defend yourself with a firearm," he said.
In August 2010, 54-year-old Thomson was sleeping in his Port Colborne, Ont., home when he awoke to the sound of Molotov cocktails exploding. Looking outside he saw part of his house and his porch ablaze, and four masked men outside. A former firearms instructor, he quickly unlocked his gun safe, loaded a .38-calibre revolver and stepped outside.
Thomson fired three warning shots, which caused the men to flee, before he doused the flames with a garden hose and called 911.
When police arrived he was taken into custody, and his collection of firearms—assorted handguns worth over $10,000 – and ammunition were seized and impounded.
Soon after, Crown attorneys charged Thomson with careless use of a firearm. These charges were later dropped, and he was charged with two counts of unsafe storage of a firearm.
Canada's leading firearms lawyer Ed Burlew represented Thomson, and said the decision is a significant victory for Canadian gun owners.
"We all have a fundamental right to protect out property and our families," he said. "You've got to be able to defend yourself without fear of prosecution, and I think that's well established now."
Crown prosecutors argued Thomson had fallen afoul of safe storage regulations because, on the night of the incident, Thomson had a box of .38 Special ammunition in his bedside table. The judge ruled this was irrelevant, Burlew said, since Thomson's guns were all securely locked away in a gun safe.
The four men who attacked Thomson were all sentenced to between two and four years incarceration.
Unless the Crown decides to appeal the case, Thomson's collection of guns must be returned to him within 30 days.
Thomson said he came under intense pressure from police to enter a plea and accept a weapons prohibition, but refused due to his belief he was innocent.
"I would not cut a deal because I did not break the law," he said. "And – to use a pun – I stuck to my guns."
Thomson said he racked up about $60,000 in legal costs during the trial, but said much of that was paid by donations from members of the National Firearms Association, the Canadian Sports Shooting Association (CSSA) and readers of the popular pro-firearms online message board CanadianGunNutz.com.
Many messages of support for Thomson were posted on the internet by gun owners following the decision.
"This case is extremely significant and Mr. Thomson's victory is a victory for common sense and freedom for all Canadians," the CSSA said in a statement.

The Urban Institute, the Center for Court Innovation, and RTI International conducted NIJ's Multi-Site Adult Drug Court Evaluation. This presentation uses data collected for MADCE drug court participants to describe key court policies, practices, and dynamics (e.g., treatment, leverage, judicial supervision, judicial interaction, case management, drug testing, sanctions, rewards, etc.). It addresses: 1) how policies, practices, and courtroom experiences vary across drug court programs; 2) which policies, practices, and courtroom experiences make drug courts more or less effective; 3) whether courtroom experiences mediate drug court success; and 4) whether the effects of specific policies and practices vary by offender subgroup.

Denmark to give $135 million ODA for green growth The Government of Denmark will provide US$135 million in official development assistance (ODA) to Viet Nam during the 2011-12 period, with the funds earmarked for projects that foster green growth.

Kansas is a wonderful place to pursue birds. I can't say it's the easiest place to fill a limit, nor is it even the most visually stunning location to chase game. But, it does have a charm that's unique to the small towns that fill its landscape, indifferent to the pace of life that circles its boarders. It has a robust and well managed walk-in-access program that gives the foot hunter limitless opportunities to pursue a wide variety of game birds, giving you a sense of freedom that only comes from abundant options. And for the pointing breed man, there is perhaps no other place on earth that quenches a passionate commitment to quietly observe the methodical purpose of a Pointer, Setter or other such staunch creature exercising their birthright.
Earlier this week, I spent three splendid days wrestling plum thickets, rooting through weed choked brushy draws and creek bottoms in pursuit of quail. With a good amount of snow on the ground from a recent winter storm, I was confident my pursuits would be rewarded with a few birds, maybe even a limit.
I learned a few things about the search for quail in a vast landscape. They're magicians, here one minute and faint memories the next, leaving only frustrating reminders that they are indeed close by. A few tracks, an occasional snow melted roost, maybe even a feeding scrape here or there, but count on being able to reliably locate them based on the evidence and you'll be painted a fool.
When my hunt concluded, I managed exactly what I originally expected - only a few birds. We moved five coveys on our first day and I witnessed some truly spectacular dog work. An untimely spell of poor shooting on my part left the birds in good condition and free to concern themselves with more ruthless predators. I managed only two birds among a bevy of opportunities. Our second day resulted in only one covey, but a double taken by my cohort made the best of the challenging conditions. Bird sign was abundant. Hopes ran high. Yet at the end of the day, we were left scratching our heads and kicking the dirt, completely bewildered. The third day provided a small amount of redemption on my part with two coveys moved and my being able to connect with three birds, all singles after a covey flush - the last shots of the day.
Of all the riches I encountered on this trip, there are two things that occurred repeatedly during the hunt that warrant additional discussion. One, why is it that after a five mile hike in snow filled crop edges the quail erupt fifteen feet from the truck? Two, why is the most illusive creature on earth the rooster that gets up when you're expecting a covey of quail?
Cold first day. Plenty of birds eased the chill though. |

@Needlebay: The op is not specific, what is this a h2h or weapons or what? is Black Canary allowed her Canary Cry? as it stands i see team 1 stomping.
Canary Cry + Zealot.
Rose Wilson has enhanced stats.
Shiva, Cassandra Cain and White Canary... I do believe that they outskill a lot of the Marvelers.
Seems IMBA.
DC wins as most of their team has super powers (Zealot/Canary/Rose) to backup their skills. You could have at least provided Marvel females with an equivalent power levels (Mockingbird/Tigra/X-23/Mantis).
Shiva, Cass, and White Canary on the same team!!!!!!
@Cochise said:
DC team easily... With Zealot what did you expect?
Zealot - super strong (two tonner), super reflexes, healing ability, thousands of years of experience, dark sorcery (seldom used), invulnerable to small arms fire (as long as it is not powerful armor piercing rounds). I don't think she qualifies as street level. Even Rose is stretching the definition.
Team Lady Shiva. Add people like Gamora to Elektra's Team.
Team Elektra wins........... at getting b&^%hslapped.

The Mongrel I saw the dog again this morning. He was waiting for me in the wooded area near the parking lot leading up to the office, just like he had been for past several days. He is a beautiful animal, kind of reminds me of those wolf/German shepherd dog crosses people sometimes buy because they want to "own a piece of the wilderness." Large muscular frame, dark gray sable colored coat, one ear held pricked up and alert while the other is allowed to flop over to the side. The charming appearance is marred only by the look of neglect he has earned over what must have been a lifetime spent living as a stray. The handsome coat is dull and patchy in places, and numerous scars tell the tale of a life spent struggling with others over whatever food could be found. Despite the general air of roughness about him, I can sense that he is a very unique individual. More than anything it is his eyes that tell me this. They are an icy light blue color, and when he looks at

If I have misrepresented anything in the following Journal, I apologise. If anyone has anything to add, feel free to comment."Rape isn't about uncontrollable sexual desire. You only have to listen in on a Call of Duty game to see that. When that kid crows, "I raped you!", he's not calling the other guy sexy; he's saying he defeated him, dominated him, humiliated him.

Sherlock- BoxJohn blinked at the box in the middle of the floor. It was fresh, new. The label on the side was addressed to Speedy's café, so John knew it wasn't originally meant to be in the flat. Mrs. Hudson wouldn't randomly leave a box in the middle of the floor, and John definitely hadn't had anything to do with it, so that left Sherlock.As far as things Sherlock brought back to the apartment, a cardboard box was mundane, at best. That was part of what worried John. He moved to examine the box, speculating as to what could be inside.The first thing that he noted was that it was upside down. The bottom of the box, which was now the top, was still sealed with packing tape. Closer examination showed that the tape across the top of the box (now tucked underneath) had been peeled off, so the only opening was at the bottom. This also meant that it had been opened, which reduced the fear that Sherlock was stealing a café's mail.With a huff, John plopped down in his chair, staring at the b

What to expect when you're expecting (an acceptance letter)
4.12 / 5.00 4,592 ViewsPart 3 of my experimental "Sock" series. Once again it's based on my dreams. It's full title is "10 Different Types Of Soup". You may find it confusing, but then dreams ARE confusing.
I loved it, even more than every other cartoon you have made, and that's saying something. This one was extremely funny (especially the random polar bear heads) and had fantastic voices, please keep making more!
whoa mang
Damn your weird. i love it! i dont know what else to say. after seeing salad fingers its about what id expect from you. only this was a bit better because of teh confusion. i liked the odd polar bear heads, they just didnt seem to have any meaning whatsoever.
Another David Firth
Great, original, scary, and I love it!
But if i ever see you on the street I'm going to run in the other direction.
Poor David Firth. This is pretty amazing stuff. I feel sorry for his brain though. Keep making flashes.
Your crazy man...
I like it O.o cause im not so right in the head either with my dreams.... Like the one about me walking on the roof while a dog floats across the sky barking and a plane flys by... real wierd and confusing but its makes plenty of sense to me O.o

"This book is well-written though the truth is not always easy to absorb. The book lays out Islam's plans for world dominance -- often using Christianity's own methods, the importance of Muslim presence -- why they build mosque as quickly as possible in a location, the social implications of Islamic Law (Shariah) -- a scary proportion, the role of fear in Islam -- fundamental, and much more. In a culture that seems to be embracing the press release, sanitized, version of Islam, this book reveals the truth with balance and truth and without hate. Every Christian who wants to discern truth from rhetoric should read this book."— Carolyn R. Sheidies

Open the Mac App Store to buy and download apps.
Having two monitors on OSX is both a joy and a pain. Simple things like viewing a movie or playing a game quickly become a hassle when you have one screen playing and the other blasting full brightness your face. There is no quick and easy way to "cover" or dim a single screen, so I got to work on a solution...
The result is what I am creatively dubbing "ScreenDimmer." It allows you to selectively dim up to three monitors in all sorts of configurations and opacities (brightnesses), while not interfering with your other applications. You could choose to have your second monitor be dim while your primary plays a movie, or maybe have your primary and third be full black while you play a game on your second. The possibilities are endless! Some of you with single monitors may also find this little utility useful as it will give you more "fine grained" control over your brightness.
I initially created this small utility for myself but it evolved into something that I am proud to release. I gave it my best and I hope you enjoy it!

- Selected monitors can be any configuration of 1, 2 and/or 3.
3. Click enable
- The overlay should now pop up
4. Use the slider to change the brightness level.
5. Enjoy!
What's New in Version 1.3
- Made monitor icons automatically rearrange to match desktop orientation
- Made screen remain dim while in expose (note: it is currently imposible to have the app remain active while in mission control. I spent the greater portion of a week trying to figure it out, but sadly it appears to be impossible with the standard apple libraries. Sorry to all who wanted that feature!)
- Fixed constraint error
- Removed misc files (decreased app size!)
NOTE: This feature is new, and as such may have issues. I have tested it to the best of my abilities, but if you encounter any bugs please email me (email@example.com). Thanks!
I would like to briefly thank everybody who has downloaded the application, especially those who left reviews/emailed me! The fact that you took the time to write a nice little paragraph about something I made is incredibly gratifying. If you have any questions, comments, or requests please do not hesitate to email me (firstname.lastname@example.com). Thanks!
Customer Reviews
App works great but to be clear, it doesn't adjust the brightness on the display...
The app works great, and from the user's perspective, it appears to dim the monitor. In that I am grateful because I like dim displays at night in the dark. But one thing that needs to be pointed out is that it doesn't change the brightness control on the attached display and therefore is not decreasing the power consumption of the attached display when dimmed. This app overlays an opaque black on the display and sets the opacity for some level in order to simulate a decrease in bghtness.
Hey, it works and my eyes are none the worse for wear because of it, but I have spent the better part of my career working on energy mangement issues and I am disappointed Apple and the display OEMs haven't worked this problem out (the cinema displays need a USB cable to have the MBP control them...). It's a simple problem for them to fix if they would work together.
Anyhow, to the app developer, good job and BTW, the display pyronometer (aka; ambient light sensor or auto brightness control sensor) in the MBP/imac/etc is available to developers. You should tie into it and adjust the brighness of displays automatically based on the observed brightness in the room. It's trivial to get the sensor data and it's an enum with kGetSensorReadingID as it's first member, and the ints reflects a scale between dark and saturation. You could then dim displays based on ambient light conditions.
Works, but with some problems
This app works great and I have been using it for months now. Over time though, I have noticed some minor annoying issues. First, when I have this app set to start up with my mac the application does not work and I cannot enable or disable it. I then have to quit and relaunch the app for its functionality to return. Second, if I have one monitor plugged in with the app running, then I plug in an additional monitor the app doesn't recognize it and I have to quit and relaunch the app. Final problem I have noticed is that when switching spaces the dim overlay flashes to regular brightness then back to the brightness that I have set. It creates an annoying brightness flicker. I have yet to try out any other brightness apps but this one could use some screen recognition fixes and startup fixes
Huge improvement
The 1.3 update is a huge improvement over the last version. Now that the mission control/exposé issue has been dealt with, this easily takes the top spot as far as screen dimming solutions go. Easy to control and with a great range of settings, and the multiple monitor support works just like it should.
Additionally, when I emailed the developer with my mission control complaint, I received some of the best support I've ever gotten. The dev has earned both my money and my respect.
Do yourself a favor and buy this thing already!

Cape Cod fireworks canceled
POSTED: Saturday, July 5, 2014 - 11:00am
UPDATED: Saturday, July 5, 2014 - 11:09am
Hurricane Arthur puts a damper on celebrations. Katelyn Flint reports.
(NECN) Cape Cod is preparing for an unwelcome visitor this Fourth of July.
Tropical Storm Arthur's threat has prompted the town of Barnstable, Massachusetts, to cancel its annual fireworks display for the first time in nearly 20 years.
Town manager Tom Lynch says the decision to cancel the show, which costs around $40,000, is partly due to cost, but mainly due to safety.

Full year Adjusted EBITDA was $445.7 million. Excluding the impact of the aforementioned malpractice cases, full year Adjusted EBITDA was $455.4 million;

Thanks danker. This is a really tough draw.
Not only is Zhang in great form, having won the futures in Auckland last week, but even Hubacek is a very tough first round. She was one of the players I watched last week, she's young with a strong serve, good volleys, and a fair amount of power. Her coach, a woman who for some reason reminds me of Lleyton's mum, watches her matches and was videoing the match with a camera on a tripod. She seems to call her "Lenky" and she encourages her a lot. She lost in the third set tiebreak to the top seed, Sandy Gumulya, in a long match that took about three hours, and really could have won, but for a few naive decisions at big points. She had a good chance to go up a minibreak at a crucial time with an easy short ball but chose to dropshot instead of going for a regular winner (which would have been easily successful).
Quite frankly, if Dianne can get through these first two rounds she can probably win the whole thing. But these rounds are quite hard, probably among the toughest matches in the draw.

Chandler has anything you want, shopping, lodging, restaurants,helicopter factory, industry.
