Freezing car theft suspect calls 911 for help
FAIRFIELD, Ill. - Lost and fearing he would freeze to death, a Wayne County, Ill. man suspected of stealing and wrecking a Ford Explorer dialed 911 for help Sunday night. The call eventually landed him in jail.
Ryan Tibbs, 21, of Cisne, Ill., dialed 911 around 11:30 p.m. and told an Illinois State Police dispatcher that he had wrecked his vehicle somewhere around Cisne, and was on foot, lost and afraid he would freeze to death.
"We contacted the phone company to ping his cellphone," said Wayne County Sheriff Mike Everett. "It showed he was in the bottoms southeast of Fairfield — nowhere near Cisne."
Everett said one of his correctional officers knew Tibbs and sent him a text message asking his location. "All he could tell us was that he had sought shelter in a big equipment shed."
Shivering from the cold, Tibbs was found around 6 a.m. Monday in a machine shop owned by a local farmer.
The vehicle he is accused of stealing, a 2000 Ford Explorer, was found wrecked about seven miles away in the bottoms, southeast of Fairfield. The driver missed a T-intersection and landed in a ditch, Everett said. The vehicle had been reported stolen the night before by Jerry Carter, a local farmer.
After being taken to Fairfield Memorial Hospital for treatment of injuries sustained in the crash, and exposure, Tibbs was lodged in the Wayne County jail on a preliminary charge of being in possession of a stolen vehicle.

The genetically warped "chickenhead" John Isidore has visions of a tomb-world where entropy has finally won. And everyone plugs in to the spiritual agony of Mercer, whose sufferings for the sins of humanity are broadcast several times a day. Prefiguring the religious obsessions of Dick's last novels, this book asks dark questions about identity and altruism. After all, is it right to kill the killers just because Mercer says so? --Roz Kaveney, Amazon.co.uk --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.

It's a good book; solid characters, good story, decent ending.
These days I imagine that most people, like myself, read "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" after having seen and enjoyed the movie "Blade Runner".
Like all PKD books this one speaks about the social injustice of the world and how what we think might be real could actually be a lie.
Poorly written. A product of its times. At times imaginative. It seems the books cultural inspiration (i.e. Bladerunner) has clouded the fact that this isn't a very good book. Read morePublished 13 hours ago by JVF

Officer killed in Mass. brother of Hendrick worker
Updated: April 19, 2013, 12:48 PM ETAssociated Press
KANSAS CITY, Kan. -- Hendrick Motorsports was shaken by the news Friday that the MIT officer killed during the manhunt for the Boston Marathon bombing suspects was the brother of Andrew Collier, a machinist in its engine shop.
Sean Collier was found shot to death late Thursday in his vehicle in Cambridge, Mass. Authorities have said Collier was responding to a report of a disturbance when he was shot.
Andrew Collier has been working for Hendrick Motorsports since September 2008.

- Tomorrowland
T-shirt advertisement
- Tomorrowland is held in Belgium as an outdoor dancing event (festival) organized every year in the town of Boom since 2005.
Essentially, the 2012 Tomorrowland Festival main stage is made up of giant fairy tale books, the largest of which can open and close in the center of the stage. The massive main stage measured almost 500 Feet long, close to two football fields, and weighed 138 tonnes.This mechanized book is equipped with an huge LED screen that is tailored to each performance on the stage. Truly embracing the magical atmosphere that this festival is famous for, the main stage is straight out of a fairy tale.
I have made the T-shirt advertisement for the online web shop,I've tried to create something magical and unique,fantasy background to picture of the festival atmosphere.

text: Once upon a time, we all knew that BB did NOT spend high draft picks on guards. Or inside linebackers, who took years to develop. Plus you could count on him to trade down, not up, in round 1. Needless to say, he has pretty much obliterated all attempts at formulating Patriots draft "rules." But the idea that he strongly favored players from the most competitive conferences, and especially the SEC, was still kicking around. So, naturally, the first two days of the draft netted 4 players, two from Conference USA and 2 from the Big East. Rules, shmules.

Zephyr, Futuro, or Ventahood?
Any help/opinions greatly appreciated! We are fixing up the kitchen in a new home, currently has a 36" gas cooktop with a downdraft vent.
We need an island hood to go over a 36 inch 6 burner gas Bertazzoni cooktop (about 51,000 btu's total).
We are planning a 42" island hood.
We like the glass canopy models such as Zephyr Milano and Futuro Mooncrystal, but are worried about capture area and upkeep of the glass. The Zephyr Napoli looks a little better for capture area. The vent-a-hood seems bulky, and our current VAH seems louder on low speeds than the zephyr we saw in the showroom. We have read the very mixed reviews on the Futuro (6" duct issue), and a few positive on the Zephyr. Our old house has VAH. Cooking style is simmer and saute, no wok, always boiling pasta water.
Any current opinions/recs on these hoods?
Thanks in advance!

Basically the only rankings that are worth looking at are those that Jason does for Intermat.
Too many others are done by myopics, or people who obviously drink too much during their deliberations. These Rev rankings must be almost purely opinion. At one weight they have a guy with a 3-2 record and no good wins, while leaving off a guy who has wins over two guys that ARE ranked.

Living a Shamanic Way of Life
12 steps
Shamanism is a way of life. It reminds us that everything is alive with energy and that we are all connected to and inseparable from a universal web of life.
-Sandra Ingerman
When we teach Medicine for the Earth: How to Transform Personal and Environmental Toxins we talk about living a Shamanic Way of Life. People have been asking me "What does that mean"? So I am dedicating this month's Well of Light Newsletter to exploring twelve key elements that I believe support living a shamanic way of life. Like any practice there will be days when you are fully engaged in all of these steps and others when you only manage to spend a few moments connected to this path. In the end, it's all about love. We must first learn to love and embrace ourselves when we don't do it perfectly. When we love the eternal spirit that lives within ourselves, we learn to love all life, as we are all deeply and profoundly interconnected with the web of life and the Spirit that lives in all things.
Shamanism is the oldest spiritual healing practice on the planet dating back at least 50,000 years. It is a system of Direct Revelation (all the world religions were originally based on this practice). The word shaman means "one who sees in the dark". Shamans enter what is called non-ordinary reality, to access information that is not accessible to the linear mind. While it is useful to have a teacher and outside inspiration, the important thing is to become still enough to hear our inner spirit. The basic principle behind this work is that if we want to change the outer world of form and substance, we must first transmute the inner world of toxic thoughts, beliefs and assumptions into the golden light of loving awareness. We live in a time when the solutions to today's challenges will only be solved by a spiritual awakening on the planet. Without this awakening, future generations (if they survive), will live very challenging lives. Here are some basic practices that can lead us to living in a shamanic way.
Your true home is in the here and the now.
-Thích Nhất Hạnh
1. Cultivating Presence: Our contemporary world is one of distraction, denial and disturbance. To live a shamanic life we must learn to focus the mind. Concentration on the breath is a traditional way of transcending our constant preoccupation with the remembered stories of the past and imagined fears of the future. Presence is already here. Mostly we aren't. We must learn mindfully to put our attention on what is happening moment to moment or we miss our life.
Our intention creates our reality.
-Wayne Dyer
2. Living an Intentional Life: Intention is the key to living in an intuitive and self-revelatory state of awareness. Imagining the kind of world we want to live in and not being distracted by the daily dose of bad news or the myriad disruptions that present themselves moment to moment is essential to living the life you were born to live and manifesting the quality of living that is your longing. Letting your own luminous self shine needs only that you hold the intention to bring your light forth into the world and shine. All manifested dreams start with intention. Create daily reminders of the future you want to live into.
Man does not weave this web of life. He is merely a strand of it.
Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.
-Chief Seattle
3. Honoring the Web of Life: Humanity is, for the most part, suffering from a serious case of "Nature Deficit Disorder". Every part of nature works in collaboration with every other part, except the human species. We must reawaken our relationship with the seasons, elements and cycles of the natural world to rediscover how to live in harmony with her. Shamans call forth their power from the trees, mountains, rivers, sun and moon. They know the spirits of nature are their allies. Indigenous peoples have always known that the role of the human on this planet is as a caretaker of the earth and all life.
The Navajo people have a saying: May you walk in beauty. In saying this, they mean never say anything that will create fear or harm in another. Do not
curse others with your words. Rather, bless them with words
that create beauty in their lives.
-Sandra Ingerman
4. Walking in Beauty: Our perception creates our reality. Most of us have been trained by our culture to focus on what's wrong rather that basking in the beauty that surrounds us. If we want to transform our suffering, struggling and despair we must attune ourselves to the miracle of just being here. It's easy to find fault with our parents and ancestors, but can we celebrate all the things we appreciate about the vision of life on earth that they bequeathed us? Turn off the radio and TV news and open to the radiant joy of each breath. Celebrate the little things each day that bless you and make your heart sing. What you shine your light on will reflect your own divinity.
Some men see things as they are and say, "Why?" I dream of things
that never were, and say, "Why not?"
-George Bernard Shaw
5. Holding a Positive Vision for the Future: Psychology research has clearly shown that at the heart of most depression is not having a compelling vision for the future. It is important to hold a clear image of the life we want to live into, to literally have something to wake up for every day. Setting short and long term goals brings us more directly into contact with life. The future of life on this planet depends on our holding a picture of a positive future for our descendants and ourselves. Take the time to imagine and write down the life you envision today and watch the magic unfold.
Although you appear in earthly form your essence is pure Consciousness.
You are the fearless guardian of Divine Light.
6. Seeing all Beings in Divine Light: Our identification with our ego and story of who we think we are keeps us separate from each other. Our character and personality has very little to do with who we really are, which is the eternal light of spirit. We don't have to condone the behavior of someone to see them in their Divine nature, surrounded by the light of love. To honor the Spirit that lives in all things it is imperative that we practice seeing others in their Divine light. When people are truly seen, they begin to transform as there is no further need to engage in the dysfunctional ways they learned to try and receive the love and attention they never got.
Webster's dictionary, defines integrity as a state or condition of being whole, complete, unbroken, unimpaired, sound, in perfect condition.
7. Being in Integrity: Integrity has nothing to do with right and wrong, good or bad or being morally upright. It is about being true to our nature and honoring our word as our self. It means not leaving things undone and having the strength to engage in courageous conversations when they are needed. The world we live in is the one that comes out of our mouth. Speak the world you want to live into. Being in Integrity means practicing right speaking, thinking and acting based on the values that we hold.
What you appreciate appreciates.
-Lynn Twist
8. Expressing Gratitude and Thanks Giving: It is so easy in our terminally busy lives to take the miracles that surround us for granted. We worry about our future; will I have enough money, time, love; we get caught up in fear, doubt and anxiety; and we rush around missing the life that is disappearing in the wake of our motion. Shamans always begin and end all ceremonies and every day with expressing gratitude for the ancestors, the elements, the directions, all the nature beings and the life they have been given. What we hold in lack increases, just as what we are grateful for grows.
When the inner garden is under cultivation and Spirit is present, harvests are regular events. The fruits? Things like courage, hope, love,
endurance, joy, and lots of peace.
-Gordon MacDonald
9. Tending Your Inner Garden: A wonderful metaphor for our inner lives is to imagine it as a fertile garden. Whatever we plant there grows. If we sow seeds of fear, anger, separation and suffering our garden will resemble a garbage strewn abandoned inner city lot. But if we sow seeds of love, gratitude, joy, light and possibility we will reap a rich golden harvest of connection, abundance, health and prosperity.
Three things to remember in any discipline: Practice, Practice and Practice!
10. Engaging in a Daily Practice: Practice is a discipline. You don't need to get it right all the time, you just need to do it. To live a shamanic way of life means that you practice every day. You find ways to remind yourself to engage in the rituals, ceremonies and activities of your path. One of the most important ways to keep going when you are distracted or don't want to (the most important time to engage in practice) is to surround yourself with a community that reminds you of who you are when you forget. You are the Divine, trying to remember your true nature.
It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is
humility that makes men as angels.
-Saint Augustine
11. Practicing Humility: We have an epidemic of loneliness in our culture. One in four people in the US have no one to call in case of an emergency. It is our ego that keeps us separate and is constantly measuring our sense of self worth against the hierarchy of righteous indignation. When we see the numinous beauty in others we experience it in ourselves and thereby elevate the level of love and goodness in the world. A true shaman knows that the work they do is coming through them as spirit. They are merely messengers, a hollow bone or conduit for the Divine to flow through. It's time to get over ourselves.
The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.
-Mahatma Gandhi
12. Being of Service: The happiest people on the planet are those who have learned how to serve. To give ourselves to a path of service is not particularly good or noble, it probably won't make you a lot of money, but it will make you happy and bring greater meaning into our lives. Being of service teaches us humility and compassion – it dissolves the barriers of separation at the heart of all conflict in the world. A shaman lives in service to the whole of the community in the web of life.
If we would just focus on these 12 steps to living a shamanic way of life we could transform the state of the planet into one of beauty, love, compassion and peace. I invite you to join me in integrating these practices into our daily lives.
With love and gratitude,
The purpose of our lives is to be happy.
– Dalai Lama
It's a new year and while there is much to be grateful for, there is also a collective fear in the air as wars wage on, ecosystems continue to deteriorate, and inequality grows. If the purpose of life is, as the Dali Lama says, to be happy, we seem to be missing the mark. But, what if happiness had nothing to do with our possessions, outer circumstances or even our challenges? What if it was an inside job? There is increasing scientific and spiritual evidence that we can cultivate joy and happiness by developing presence, perception and practice. There is also indication that joy and happiness are contagious and might very well bring about the shift in direction towards a more life sustaining way of living and being on the earth.
As a journalist and researcher I have a tendency to read a lot of scary material about what is happening in the world. My radio show, teaching, consulting and workshops come out of my commitment to make the world a better place – to inform, inspire and support the revolution in consciousness towards a more sane, humane and just world. Recently I realized that I had a belief that with so much pain and suffering in the world it would be arrogant and self-centered for me to be happy. But wait, there's so much beauty and goodness in the world. Could it be that recognizing and embracing the beauty and joy that surrounds us, pain and suffering could be alleviated? I had fallen into the media trap of focusing only on what isn't working when there is so much to celebrate and be grateful for in our world.
Our joy and happiness is up to us. Our suffering or well-being is not solely determined by what's happening in our present circumstances but to a large degree by our relationship with what is happening.
– James Baraz
Christine Price, my Gestalt meditation teacher often used the quote, "pain is inevitable, but suffering is a choice." But, can we really choose to be happy and joyful? We are bombarded with negativity in our culture. Newspaper editors have a phrase, "if it bleeds, it leads." Advertisers use our feelings of inadequacy to sell us their products. Our culture encourages self-indulgence and competition over cooperation and reflection in myriad ways. What if our children were raised to put happiness above "winning" and joyfulness was the measure of our success?
So what does presence have to do with choice? Most of us spend very little time during our days being present. We are either driven by our past experiences or concerned over our imagined future. These mental states of denial of the now are what constitute the voices in our head, limiting our happiness. We could continue to live as an expression of our egos, or be present, here and now. This is the first step towards choosing happiness and joy in our lives.
The past perpetuates itself through lack of presence. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.
– Eckhart Tolle
Being present with what is happening moment to moment is a practice. As any meditator knows, the mind is a busy place. It's like grand central station and there is a new train leaving every minute. The trick is to not get on board! We can choose to stay beside the track and watch the train go by. As the thoughts pass through, we can put our attention on our body sensations, feeling emotions, and focus our awareness on what's happening in the moment. We can focus our attention on looking for the beauty, love and joy that surrounds us. We can choose to find joy even in the most difficult of times. This is the secret of the sages and why we so often see them smiling, even laughing. It's not that they don't see the tragedy, the suffering and the challenges of life. They just don't dwell in them and instead focus on the beauty, joy and wonder of life itself. Being happy and joyful is something we cultivate by looking for it.
Since the beginning of history focusing on the breath has been a way to slow down the chatter and become more mindful, more present. When we slow down and observe what is happening in our mind and body a whole new world of possibility and perception opens up. We come alive and we have the opportunity to make a real choice. It is only from this place that we can choose authentic happiness. Every day when we wake up we can choose life, happiness and joy. We can choose to not deny our humanity and circumstances but to embrace them inside of the joy of just being alive.
Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of human freedoms – to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.
– Viktor E. Frankl
When we choose joy our hearts open, we feel an expanded sense of connection with others and the web of life. We have challenges, but we know we are not our circumstances. We are so much bigger than that! Shamans know the importance of honoring the spirit of the elements and receiving the unseen guidance of the Spirit world and power of nature. Our breath connects us with the spirit of air, our body is the clay that dances with the spirit of the earth, our tears are from the water from which we came and connect us to our compassion and the cycles of life and our passion is the fire that comes from the sun and gives us light and life. Let's be thankful for the life we have been given and celebrate. We are so much grander when we are joyfully grateful and our life resonates with life itself.
It is possible that by stepping fully into the joy of being human we could ignite a fire in the hearts of every person we touch. You know people like this, people you just want to be around because they are over flowing with joy and happiness and it's contagious. Think of a world gone mad with joy, happiness and celebration. How beautiful life could be if we focused our attention on bringing more joy into the world… I invite you to join me in practicing the cultivation of joy in your life and bringing your happiness out into the world. Let's have a joy-filled coming out party. Let's dance and sing to the beauty that surrounds us. Let's be joyful for the world and the future generations… Know that our joy has the potential to transform the world!
With love and joyful blessings,
We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think.
When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
The Buddha
I am currently writing a book that integrates my shamanic practices with three decades of Organizational Development work. Organizational Shamanism (OS) is the practice and application of ancient shamanic techniques to solve contemporary organizational and community challenges. It is a whole systems approach to gathering information that can help us to revitalize and energize the spirit of our organizations and tap into new levels of creativity, intuition and wisdom not available with contemporary perception. OS focuses on transforming inner states of consciousness to bring about outer change, and taps into a creative potential beyond limiting beliefs and assumptions.
I am currently looking for companies that are interested in trying these new approaches to solving organizational issues. If you and your organization or any one you know are open to applying this pioneering work in your company to bring about organizational change please give me a call. Or email 530.277.0937 or email@example.com
In Original Mind, neuroscience and learning pioneer Dee Joy Coulter takes us on an odyssey back to our "beginner's mind," and into our many undeveloped potentials. Through fascinating research, insights, stories, and engaging practices largely overlooked by other "brain science" books, she challenges us to question the conventional definitions and limitations of our minds, and then to move beyond them into a state of unlimited presence.
What would it feel like to experience the world again like a child-deeply engaged with our senses and filled with wonder and creativity?
Original Mind takes us on an odyssey back to our "beginner's mind," and into our many undeveloped potentials. Through fascinating research, insights, stories, and engaging practices largely overlooked by other "brain science" books, neuroscience and learning pioneer Dee Joy Coulter challenges us to question the conventional definitions and limitations of our minds, and then to move beyond them. This delight-driven odyssey explores a vast landscape of untapped dimensions of consciousness, including:
- How to see again with the fresh wonder of an infant
- Calming, Enriching, Magnetizing, and Self-Regulating-four keys to character development and emotional resilience
- How reading profoundly changes our brains, and how to develop the remarkable capacities of the "pre-literate" mind
- Engaging the body to enrich the art of thinking
- Boredom, Complexity, Ambiguity, Permeability, and Novelty-five "tolerances" to liberate creativity and joy
- Protecting-and expanding-our cognitive faculties as we age
- Blending newfound intuitive skills and "school-learned" abilities to navigate the complex demands of the modern world, and much more
Dee Joy Coulter, EdD, is a nationally recognized neuroscience educator with a master's degree in special education and a doctorate in neurological studies and holistic education. In addition to 14 years as a special education teacher and program director, she served on the faculty of Naropa University for 20 years. She lives in Boulder, Colorado.
I hope you will listen to last week's interview with author Leonard Jacobson, who teaches us how to become fundamentally present and arisein mastery of the mind and ego, so that we are no longer involuntarily pulled out of Presence. His book the Journey to Now
Leonard Jacobson is deeply committed to helping others break through to the joyous experience of living in the NOW. He teaches how to become fundamentally present and how to arise in mastery of your mind and ego, so that you are no longer involuntarily pulled out of Presence. He has been teaching people how to be present for over 30 years. Leonard has the unique ability to support others in entering directly into the experience of the awakened state.
All elsewhere being World,
how many times have I stood
in the bright shadows of a wood,
no track or trail leading in, out-
as though ground coverrenewed as I went through?
I sometimes own the moments where I stand
alone. Everything else is air
and arbitrary firings of neurons
we call memory if they happened,
fantasy if they didn't- same pictures.
Call it prayer, then,
the moments where I'm not aware
even of how lovely the moment is-
not liking, not disliking-
not aware there is a moment
until I'm back in the world
and remember it- construct it
in my mind as having been beautiful.
I'm too often bitten by silence.
My mother called it dawdling,
the ex, brooding. My students call it
absent-minded professor.
The kindest students bring me back gently.
But I live most when silence,
shade, and light like this harvest me,
a kind of prayer I'm gathered to,
not the prayer I clutter with will or words.
- Paul Allen

RE: Hoi An Riverside Resort or Hoi An Beach Resort?
Stayed 4 nights at the HoiAn beach resort 2 years ago and I couldnt fault it. We had a river view room upstairs and it had a great balcony where you can sit and watch the fishing boats go by in the early evening. We only ate breakfast at the hotel but it was excellent qaulity as well, staff are friendly and helpful.
Theres a few small restaurants within a couple of minutes walk which were excellent value and qaulity.
The only drawback is its about 5 or 6 kms from the main town but we hired a scooter for a few bucks a day from the guys out the front and it wasnt a drama.
I think they have a free shuttle bus that runs between the 2 hotels but we couldnt be bothered using it.

Hitmaker Ester Dean on Songwriting, Fighting and Eating Hot Dogs (Q&A)
Ester Dean's achievements are eclectic. While she has been a hitmaking songwriter for years -- getting her first No. 1 with Rihanna's 2010 hit "Rude Boy" and penning Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass" -- in 2012 she did voice work for Ice Age: Continental Drift and co-starred in the Anna Kendrick musical comedy Pitch Perfect. "[This year] is me really wanting to show myself as a whole, in a raw form," says Dean, 28, who in January dropped the first single from her yet-untitled solo album, "How You Love It," featuring Missy Elliott.
PHOTOS: Pop Music's Top Hitmakers
The Hollywood Reporter: Tell me about your plans for 2013. What's the plan for the release of your solo album?
Ester Dean: Songwriting has taken care of me as a whole -- and I would never have even known it was going to do that -- I am able to be blessed with so many opportunities just through songwriting, so I'm not really like, "I have to get the album out right now because we got to make some money." This album is going to go out to the people who want it, and I want to make sure that there are people out there who want it.
THR: What are your other goals for 2013 then?
Dean: [This year] is me really wanting to show myself as a whole, in a raw form. I represent the people who are in the raw, so in 2013 I have to show that with my songs, with the things that I choose. I'm the only girl songwriter that fights for a lot of things. I fight for songwriting fees, which record labels want you to shut up about. I'm only telling you this because if a songwriter reads this, they'll know that I'm fighting for it, so you make sure you do too.
THR: When it comes to your songwriting, are their certain songs that you're most proud of?
Dean: I'm proud of [Katy Perry's] "Firework" because it was a song that touched people in a way that I didn't know if would. At the time, [Rihanna's] "S&M" was out, and that's me, and so here I am with "S&M" and I thought with "Firework" being an inspirational song, is the radio going to take that? So here I had two songs on the same same chart that were totally different.
THR: Do you ever get tired of hearing your own songs?
Dean: I don't really listen to them [once they're on the radio]. I listen to them before I give them away. I listened to "What's My Name" and "S&M" a whole year before they came out on the radio.
THR: What's your ideal working environment?
Dean: A heater at my feet. This strong ass coffee called Cool Brew, which is amazing. I call it coffee crack. As long as I have a comfortable environment. I was just in the Bahamas, and it wasn't a comfortable environment, and so I had to go get hot dogs. If I'm out of town and I'm in a situation where I have to be creative, it has to be hot dogs because that's my comfort food.

THR: Is there a song of yours that you felt should have been a hit but wasn't?
Dean: Usher's "Little Freak" with Nicki Minaj and Usher's "Hot Tottie" with Jay-Z. I was like, "How in the hell is that not a hit?" Nicki when she first came out and Jay-Z and Usher! I'm still mad.
THR: How do you get feedback on new lyrics you're working on? Do you tweet them?
Dean: Hell no! I've got to keep my lyrics. It's so funny because if you tweet your lyrics and then you hear it in a song next week you're like, 'Hey I had that same idea.' I'm very secretive with my music. We have to send emails password protected. Because once that song gets out, you aren't selling that thing.

I'm wondering if there is a way in atk 4.2 to have a specific tab selected based on what search results where found after submitting a search form.
if have a simple search form (searching for keywords or criteria given by the user)
that updates a number of GRIDs each under its own tab.
these GRIDs get updated after the user submits the form, as mentioned here: Implementing a search form that updates grid or lister
now when a grid has no search results, it says 'no records found' which is a bit confusing for the user, and it would be better to automatically show the user a grid which does have search results...
the idea would be to select the first tab with a grid that has results, and possibly hide tabs for grids that returned empty search results, is this possible?

I need some input on my preliminary ideas for a week's vacation in Honduras. I friend and I are looking for the type of vacation where half the day is adventure / hiking, etc. and the other half is relaxing.
I was thinking about spending 3 nights at the Pico Bonito Lodge with lots of hiking during the daytime. Then getting to (how?) Rataon and spending 4 nights someplace comfortable (but not too upscale) where we can actually swim, snorkle, and maybe do a day trip or 2.
Advice? Is it easy enough to get from Pico Bonito to Roatan? Is there something else that we should be doing instead in Honduras?

Another must-see area (and accessible by bus to the coast) is Copan. If you can fit it into your itinerary, I would highly recommend it -- the Maya architecture there is simply incredible. For a hotel there, we loved our stay with Flavia at Hacienda San Lucas.
Report Abuse
I love Copán, too, but I don't think you have time with only a week. You can either fly from La Ceiba to Roatán or ferry across. My photo/blog/travelogue/review site is below in case you're interested. Happy trails!

Also highly recommend Copan if you can squeeze it in!
Also if you were interested to check out La Ceiba, here's the ferry: http://www.roatanferry.com
Report Abuse
You can easily get to Roatan from Ceiba using the ferry. Just make sure you take meds if you are prone to get sea sick. It's not a long ride but I have yet to make it without getting ill.
Once you get to Roatan it's easy to get a taxi from the ferry and many hotels will arrange tranfers if you ask.
We always stay at West Bay Lodge in West Bay. It's not right on the beach but a close walk and it's great to go back to lounge by the pool. Just beware of the cruiseship crowd as it was much busier the last time we were there. I belive you can find a schedule online.
We loved Copan and especially loved our overnight trip to Finca Cisne. Great food, horseback riding and real Honduran experience. I wouldn't miss it.
Have fun.

Stayed in Roatan in March for five days at Infinity Bay. They have a shuttle that takes you to the ferry dock. The ferry was enjoyable for me because I don't get seasick. It was no big deal traveling with your luggage either. Getting it once you get off the ferry takes a few minutes as there really isn't a great system but you will get it.
The lodge at Pico Bonito has a bus that will pick you up if you notify them in advance. I'm pretty sure they charge for it but it's a lot easier than trying to crab a cab on your own.
Enjoy Pico Bonito. The trails were nice and I particularly enjoyed their butterfly and reptile houses.
Report Abuse
Has anyone travelled to the Mosquitia and Olancho area? I didn't even know about it until I started reading a travel book. Apparently it's still very unspoiled territory, and sounds interesting and adventurous. Maybe too adventurous, I'm not sure, but my interest has been piqued, at least as part of my vacay.
Any info/suggestions/warnings?

John Stossel's skepticism of government and his storytelling approach about free-market economics have made him a rock star in conservative and libertarian circles.
He spoke at The Heritage Foundation on Wednesday about his new book, "No, They Can't: Why Government Fails—But Individuals Succeed." It is Stossel's latest attempt to debunk the myths that government can solve America's problems. He tackles everything from crony capitalism and federal regulations to teachers' unions and gun control.
