Apocalypse Nana
Is Barry Manilow really in Pittsburgh this week? Yes he is!!! And is Barry in the Apocalypse Nana bunker during our show? Not quite, but we can only wish for a miracle.
Now that the superstar singer with those adorable plastic cheeks and bright-white dentures is completing his last year of touring, we want to ask the questions: Will and how can Barry Manilow survive the dreaded and life-taking apocalypse? We all know he can't smile without us and he can "Copacabana" just fine ... but let's look and see if he can make it as a survivalist. Does Barry have the gumption to live during the end of the world, singing "Looks Like We Made It," while he battles zombies or survives the plague, or will he go down singing, "Somewhere in the Night," lost and confused, and bunkerless?
Enjoy a fun-filled and informative hour with Jacqueline "Mandy" Druga, the Apocalypse Nana herself, and her delicious sidekick, the "Bandstand Boogie" guy himself, R. W. Clinger, when they discuss celebrities at the end of the world? Who's strong enough to survive ? And who will plummet to their deaths while signing "Let's Hold On"?
This Thursday evening, enjoy our comments and tales of a weekend in New England chasing after Barry in the late eighties, and how we believed the world was going to end, preparing for the worst nuclear disaster during the Reagan years. And also play the popular Flash Fame Game with us that every bunkmate and prepper-listener enjoys.

George W. Bush Will Unveil 24 Portraits of World LeadersJuxtapoz // Friday, April 04, 2014
Earlier this morning on the Today Show, much to the world's (well at least our) continued bewilderment, former president George W. Bush shared an exclusive, first-ever look at a series of portraits of fellow world leaders including his father. "I painted a gentle soul," Bush said. The paintings will be on display at the George W. Bush Presidential Center starting April 5th if you for some reason feel inclined to check them out for yourself.
Paintings by Owusu-AnkomaJuxtapoz // Thursday, April 03, 2014
It all began in my childhood. As a young adolescent I made drawings on almost everything I could get my hands on. I had the tendency to dream and daydream, so I developed into an absentminded dreamer who saw goodness and beauty in nature and people. This has been the foundation of my artistic career...

The Work of Lena RevenkoJuxtapoz // Wednesday, April 02, 2014
I don't know what influenced me more, Russian miniatures, Soviet children's books, Hebrew manuscripts, Indian paintings, or Japanese prints. They all created a crazy image library in my head. Since I like to draw on old books, memos, and letters, people often ask me if there is a connection between my drawings and the meaning of the texts...

Every animal is at a loss; how is one to known if they are the predator or the prey in the uncertain microcosm presented? In this bizarre world the trees bare few leaves and seem of little importance to anyone besides the occasional moose cleaning the skin from its new antlers. Humans may have inhabited this place at some point, but not anymore...
"Between Red," Paintings by Sea Huyn LeeJuxtapoz // Monday, March 31, 2014
These jagged, detailed oil paintings by South Korean-born artist Sea Hyun Lee represent the mountains of North and South Korea. They are a reference to Lee's sense of the past and it's losses but also seem to hint at the painfully fragmented relationships between the two countries.
Drawings and Paintings by Lily Mae MartinJuxtapoz // Monday, March 31, 2014

My work is often described as grotesque, dark, or aggressive, which isn't what I intended but I find it interesting that people have that reaction. My drawing style stems form my interest in anatomy...'

RE/P Files: Construction Of A Live Echo Chamber
Here we present a portion of a chapter in the new book "The Audio Expert" by Ethan Winer, published by Focal Press.
"Science is not a democracy that can be voted on with the popular opinion." — Earl R. Geddes, audio researcher
In this chapter I explain how to assess the fidelity of audio devices and address what can and cannot be measured. Obviously, there's no metric for personal preference, such as intentional coloration from equalization choices or the amount of artificial reverb added to recordings as an effect. Nor can we measure the quality of a musical composition or performance.
While it's easy to tell—by ear or with a frequency meter—if a singer is out of tune, we can't simply proclaim such a performance to be bad. Musicians sometimes slide into notes from a higher or lower pitch, and some musical styles intentionally take liberties with intonation for artistic effect.
So while you may not be able to "measure" Beethoven's Symphony #5 to learn why many people enjoy hearing it performed, you can absolutely measure and assess the fidelity of audio equipment used to play a recording of that symphony. The science of audio and the art of music are not in opposition, nor are they mutually exclusive.
High Fidelity Defined
By definition, "high fidelity" means the faithfulness of a copy to its source. However, some types of audio degradation can sound pleasing—hence the popularity of analog tape recorders, gear containing tubes and transformers, and vinyl records. As with assessing the quality of music or a performance, a preference for intentional audio degradation cannot be quantified in absolute terms, so I won't even try. All I can do is explain and demonstrate the coloration added by various types of audio gear and let you decide if you like the effect or not.
Indeed, the same coloration that's pleasing to many people for one type of music may be deemed unacceptable for others. For example, the production goal for most classical (and jazz or big band) music is to capture and reproduce the original performance as cleanly and accurately as possible. But many types of rock and pop music benefit from intentional distortion ranging from subtle to extreme.
"The Allnic Audio's bottom end was deep, but its definition and rhythmic snap were a bit looser than the others. However, the bass sustain, where the instrumental textures reside, was very, very good. The Parasound seemed to have a 'crispy' lift in the top octaves. The Ypsilon's sound was even more transparent, silky, and airy, with a decay that seemed to intoxicatingly hang in the air before effervescing and fading out." — Michael Fremer, comparing phonograph preamplifiers in the March 2011 issue of Stereophile magazine
Perusing the popular hi-fi press, you might conclude that the above review excerpt presents a reasonable way to assess and describe the quality of audio equipment. It is not. Such flowery prose might be fun to read, but it's totally meaningless because none of those adjectives can be defined in a way that means the same thing to everyone. What is rhythmic snap? What is a "crispy" lift? And how does sound hang in the air and effervesce?
In truth, only four parameters are needed to define everything that affects the fidelity of audio equipment: noise, frequency response, distortion, and time-based errors. Note that these are really parameter categories that each contain several subsets. Let's look at these categories in turn.

First run on a new track - Enjoy all the crashes :D
This is Troy's track, he spent about a month working on it, this was one of the first group runs. There were a lot of guys trying to get used to the new track :D
At 0:50, on the right, you can see my buddy's daughter, who is a lefty, holding the remote upside down so she can steer with her left hand.
Heheh, that's what quads are for, rescue vehicles :D
It definitely has a slope to it, less than 38 degreees, but pretty close to that. Depending on the wind, I don't think the Slash would have enough momentum to even carry it all the way to the bottom...
OK Tires: Stock traxxas salsh fronts and Panther paddles in the rear.
Gearing: Robinson 12 tooth pinion, Team Associated 58 tooth spur with 32 pitch
Ambient temperature: It was cool and very windy,...
Haven't tried the mohawks yet, hoping to get some gift cards for Christmas to help acquire a pair. I think they would definitely cut through the sand a lot better than the stock Slash fronts.
Here's a pic of Half Moon for those of you who don't live in the SoCal area. I used Photshop to merge three pics together, it's big!
It took forever, but we finally managed to have a Slash, a video camera, and the dunes all in one place. We hung out mostly in the play dunes to test the Slash's capabilities in the soft sand, but...
We finally took a Slash out to Glamis, can't believe it took this long. Paddles are awesome!! :wub:

This is a video of Frank's track, he and Ty are cool enough to let us race in their backyards. Thanks guys!
Ty's Track in So Cal. Frank's track will need a video too, but that will come later. It's too hard to film and drive at the same time :cool:
Great track, man!! I'm lookin for property right now with no landscaping in the backyard so I can do the same thing. :)
For anyone with sapce constraints, my buddy Ty made a sweet backyard track...
You don't need a lot of room to have a track in the backyard. My buddy Ty made one in his backyard, and it's compact but it works great for racing. I'm not sure what the square footage is, but the...
Vid of my friend Ty's track. The spotlights had just been added.

Well I finally found a light kit to install. It was some generic one I found at my LHS. Sorry I can't remember the name. But it came with four lights, two white, two red, colored caps if you wanted...
That definitely didn't work out the same. A good driver, or pilot, is a must have for these vids. I've been pondering whether or not to attach a camera to my quad and use that to chase the Slash...
That was a great video. I gave it 5 stars. With some of those close-ups it was like watching the Baja from a chase helicopter. I hope you feel honored every time someone copies your video stylings. I...

Some 16 young students of Brisbane Christian College have been plucked out into safety as the school bus they were riding got stranded in flash flooding near the intersection of Learoyd and Paradise roads at Acacia Ridge on Monday morning at 8.40am. All children were safely recovered.
Eye witness accounts said the school bus got stranded on a traffic island as its driver greatly maneuvered to avoid flooded roads and rising waters. Rescue crews from Queensland Fire and Rescue and Swift Water Rescue were later seen rushing to attend the scared school children.
All 16 children were safely loaded into inflatable life rafts and then ferried to dry land within an hour. No one among the children, the bus driver and the members of the rescue teams bore injuries.
Wet Weather, More Floods
Central and southeast Queensland are both expecting to receive up to 200 millimetres of rain from Monday up into the early hours of Tuesday following the movement of a huge trough that crossed over the coast just after midnight.
The Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) forecast strong winds and flash flooding are expected to fall in parts of the southeast in the next 24 hours.
BoM likewise warned that up to 100 millimetres of intense rainfall may occur within a six-hour period in the coastal areas.
"That could cause some problems," Ken Kato, BoM forecaster, was quoted by Brisbane Times.
Beaches located along the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast have temporarily closed.
"It's a pretty horrible day down here on the beach," Rhys Drury, a Sunshine Coast lifesaver, told ABC radio on Monday. "The winds are quite strong ... and they'll get stronger as the day goes on."
Rainfall is expected to be much heavier over the next 24 hours. Flash flooding alers have been issued for Gladstone, Gympie, Bundaberg, Kingaroy, Hervey Bay and Fraser Island.
Sunshine Coast, along with Brisbane, Ipswich and the Gold Coast may likewise experience possible flooding.

Studios advertising "hot yoga" have become popular almost everywhere. Hot yoga, or "Bikram" style yoga, is a specific type of yoga that includes a series of 26 postures that are practiced in a hot, humid room. According to the Mayo clinic, the optimal temperature for hot yoga is 105 degrees F and the humidity is 40 percent. The sweat-inducing environment is thought to help the muscles relax into the challenging postures.

We are the Dreisbach Family. My husband and I bought this cabin in 2000. There wasn't a yard or a basement at the time so we added some t hings and in 2002 we got married on top of Grand Targhee overlooking the Tetons and then had our reception at the cabin. In 2004 we moved up to Big Sky Montana where we currently live and own a construction company and try and keep up with our three children. We love to come back to Teton Valley and enjoy this beautiful valley and all that it offers.
Joanie Dreisbach purchased this cabin in 2000
I love this property for so many reasons.
-its quiet
-great views!!
-close to town if you need anything
-close to Ski Hill Rd which takes you to Targhee and Teton Canyon my favorite to hike, xc ski or just hang out in.
-hot tub to stair at the stars and Tetons
-the cabin is very comfortable not so fansy that you don't feel comfortable in.
Nothing is quite like the unobstructed views of the Tetons which I never get tired of gazing at and I love how quite it is at the cabin.
Bluebird days, amazing Teton views, lots of soaking in the hot tub, fun skiing with friends, cross country skiing and pizza deliveries from the Italian place in Driggs. So much fun, thanks for everything!
We loved the local scenery around the Driggs cabin, including the views from inside. It was beautiful. The décor was really charming and it was very clean and well supplied. We loved the hot tub, especially with the following incident. Unfortunately, the hot water heater broke in the middle of the night and started making very loud noises. By the morning, there wasn't any hot water. The property manager came out at night and was able to stop the noise, but the repair required parts so he couldn't fix it. Also, the DVD would not work correctly - the videos would only play in black and white. We believe it had something to do with a new HD tv and an old DVD player, but not sure.
With all of this, the owners did agree to refund half of our costs, which we really appreciated. We know that things break and you never know when it will happen. I would be happy to stay there again.
This is a cozy and clean cabin, as advertised. We had a great 5 days in the cabin skiing at grand targhee and cross country up Teton canyon. I would recommend this to anyone, driggs is a great location for outside activity and is much quieter than Jackson.
For my 5 friends and I, our idea of New Year's Eve isn't being crammed into some loud, expensive club in a city - for us, the tradition has become to escape to a ski hill for a week and ring in the new year in a rural dive.
Our recently completed trip to Driggs, Idaho was by far the best yet. For a powder hound, you can't do better than Grand Targhee! That was our one and only order of business on this trip, and we did it well: four straight days at Targhee, followed by one day at Jackson Hole. But if we do it again, we'll probably just stay at Targhee. Why? It's simple: far better snow, zero crowds, and good prices.
If we'd just had great skiing and mediocre lodging (as we did last year in Lake Placid, NY), the trip still would've been the best yet. However, this cabin was freaking amazing. Warm, inviting, lots of places to sit, plenty of beds with plenty of warm blankets, and lots of things to do if you just wanna chill. I was thrilled to see NO internet and NO cable TV, but plenty of DVDs and old VHSs to laugh at if needed. We played the heck out of the Scrabble board during late nights.
A few things makes this property shine:
* Location. You're an 11 mile drive from Grand Targhee. In the morning, you can look out the huge windows on the back of the property and see the Teton peaks. Yes, you can literally check ski visibility from the property.
* The view.
* Everything works. Which is to say, all the appliances work: the washer/dryer, all the kitchen appliances, the hot tub, etc.
* The hot tub. This monster was the coup de grace! Roomy, hot, and outside. The six of us have very fond memories of crawling into the tub after beating ourselves up on the ski hill each day, and lowering ourselves as much as possible into the tub to avoid the windy chill that would near zero degrees. Nothing beats sitting in that tub, staring at the Teton peaks, drinking a beer and watching the sun set.
The owners are darned helpful and friendly.
Driggs, the nearest town, has a big supermarket and some good restaurants (the Bangkok Kitchen is fabulous).
For NYE, we went to the Knotty Pine bar in Victor, 14 miles away. A funky local band raged while we got hammered and danced like idiots.
Bottom line: don't fall for the Jackson Hole hype. Grand Targhee is the bomb! And way cheaper, and way more peaceful. We will absolutely be back to Driggs, to this specific property, hopefully before next New Year's Eve.
My husband and I spent a weeklong vacation at this cabin. Everyday and night great sunrise and sunsets. Loved the evenings on a clear night-- beautiful stars,milky way. We had spent several days in the area of Driggs, fishing and hiking. Drove to Yellowstone, via West Yellowstone entrance--great drive. Your cabin was everything we had expected, though more space then two people need. Loved the hot tub after some long hiking trips. Enjoyed the covered porch for meals or just relaxing reading. Thank you so much again.
Our Family of 6 thoroughly enjoyed your cozy cabin! Thank you so much for sharing! We loved the quietness fo the area, and didn't realize how much, until we drove over to Jackson! We biked Targhee, hiked to Darby wind cave, spent some time at both National Parks. The cabin had everything we needed, and was very peaceful. My only complaint, is that we packed light since we had the washing machine available, and when we arrived, found it on "strike." It would have been nice to know ahead of time! Otherwise, everything was Great, and it felt wonderful to sit in the hot tub after our adventures!
We really enjoyed our stay in this house. It was a very clean cabin and had that rustic feel. We used the hot tub, firepit, horseshoes, etc which was great. Everything worked great and the location was fantastic. We would recommend this home to anyone looking to travel to the area.
great field across the street to cross country ski around, perfect for the kiddos!

'Round the Towns
Preston Ramon Cruz, 27, of Jalapa, Nicaragua, is spending 13 months at the Dave and Rita Wilson home at Ridgeview Farms in rural Preston, as part of the University of Minnesota�s MAST (Minnesota Agricultural Student Trainee) program. The mission of MAST is to "improve global understanding by providing educational and cultural enrichment through international exchange."
Cruz is the first Nicaraguan to participate in the MAST program. His duties at Ridgeview Farms include working in all phases of the 600-sow farrow to finish operation.
Cruz spent eight years of his boyhood in a United Nations refugee camp in Honduras during the Nicaraguan Contra war of the 1980�s. Two of his older brothers lost their lives in the conflict. An English teacher by profession, Cruz met Dave and Rita Wilson while they were on a medical/construction mission to Jalapa.
Cruz says that he enjoys the small town friendliness of the people in Fillmore County, and likened it to the area of Nicaragua where he is from. About the impending cold weather, Cruz says that some local people are trying to scare him. "I have never seen snow before," he says, "but Rita has assured me that there is a lot of beauty in winter."
Spring Valley: Spring Valley residents were notified last week, by outgoing city administrator Mike Bubany, that more land may need to be condemned by the city to construct a recreational trail to the City Farm. Earlier this year, the city council, at Bubany�s recommendation, condemned 6/100�s of an acre for the trail, believing that construction could then proceed.
Now, it appears that one of the landowners along the route never actually signed a purchase option for their property. In taking responsibility for the oversight, Bubany wrote that, "certain public officials in this town knew of the lacking option all along and for whatever reasons did not care to mention it even though it would have prevented this mess."
Bubany told the Journal last week, that the amount of land in question is 8/10�s of an acre and it is his understanding that the landowner "will not sign an option".
"If the city wants to proceed with the trail route, they will have to consider condemning this land as well," Bubany said.
Bubany�s replacement will be current city clerk/treasurer Deb Zimmer, who will serve as interim city administrator on a three-month trial basis. Bubany pointed out that he gave his notice of resignation last June, and that the current situation is totally unrelated to his departure.
Lanesboro: Cornucopia Director John Davis is pictured next to �Square Crow�, the winning entry in the 2nd Annual Lanesboro Scarecrow Contest, sponsored by Lanesboro ACT. There were 13 entries in this year�s contest. Cornucopia received $25 Lanesboro Bucks for the winning scarecrow.
Preston: PRO-CORN Ethanol plant in Preston has applied to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency for an amendment to increase its production from 18 million gallons of ethanol fuel to 22 million.
In a phone call with the Journal last week, Plant Manager Richard Eichstadt said that he expects the MPCA to approve the amendment by the end of October.
Eichstadt also said that PRO-CORN�s Board of Directors is currently discussing a possible expansion of the plant to a 40 million gallon output. "We would need twice as much corn as we do now," Eichstadt said. He also said that the plant would need substantial expansion of its storage and production facilities as well as an increase in its electrical requirements.
Eichstadt said that the board is watching to see the outcome of pending legislation in Washington, which would require that all gasoline be blended with 10% ethanol.
"This would triple the demand for ethanol within ten years," Eichstadt said, "and would raise the overall price of corn by thirty cents."
In the meantime, PRO-CORN�s board is talking with bankers and going forward with the permitting process for the potential expansion. Eichstadt said that several other ethanol plants in Minnesota are planning to expand their operations as well.
The Preston plant currently has a workforce of 25 employees.
Houston: A fire was reported at 12:55 PM on Saturday, October 14, at Creative Tool, a tool and die manufacturing business in Houston. Houston Police Chief Paul Folz, who also serves as Information Officer for the Houston Fire Department, told the Journal that the cause of the blaze has not been officially determined. He went on to say that it possibly started from one of the machines that was running at the time. The 52� x 120� building, owned by Kevin and Kathy Jumbeck of Houston, was a complete loss.
The Houston Fire Department was assisted by the Rushford and Caledonia fire departments. "We had our hands full," Folz said, "and it certainly was a benefit to have the manpower and equipment of the Caledonia and Rushford departments. We�re very grateful for their help."
Folz said that the Jumbecks have already applied for a building permit to get their business back in operation.

Although takeaway Thai food might be a familiar crutch after a busy working day, Thai New
Year is an excuse to treat yourself to a slap-up, sit-down meal meal and break from the norm. From modest hidden gems to popular upmarket eateries, London has no shortage of Thai restaurants to
choose from – and Square Meal has rounded up some of the best.
You'll want to loosen your belt when you catch a glimpse of this bustling Thai restaurant's flavourful menu. With enticing dishes such as fishcakes spiked with
chilli, lime leaves and earthy fish sauce (pictured), or green curry with rabbit and punchy Thai basil, there's definitely no lack of sizzle at this eatery. Don't forget to save space for the house
dessert – creamy, sticky rice adorned with juicy mango.
The interior may need a facelift, but the low prices and quality of food keep Esarn Kheaw in the game. Starters such as homemade Thai sausage or bamboo-shoot salad –
two Esarn specialities – are priced under £5, and even most of the traditional curry and noodle dishes stay below the £10 mark.
The contemporary decor may not represent the vibrancy of Thai culture, but the flavours in the menu embody the zest of the country's cuisine. For a taster of several
dishes, opt for the £6.90 lunch boxes – with combinations including roasted-duck red curry, a papaya spring roll, jasmine rice, and fresh fruit, they're quite the bargain.
This family-run eatery doesn't offer much in the way of frills – especially if you're seated at one of the tables in the car park – but the authentic flavours and
friendly staff have helped boost Kaosarn's popularity all the same. The only dish that leaves you no change from a tenner is a delicious marinated and grilled half-chicken, served with sticky rice
and green-papaya salad. A second branch can be found in
Black-clad waiters equipped with earpieces show diners straight away that a meal at the cavernous Mango Tree is not your average Thai-food experience. But don't fret
– friendly staff, leather banquettes, and a cocktail menu just add to the experience, even if you just stick to your usual plate of pad Thai.
The lovely view of Hyde Park and the classy traditional Thai decor contribute to the steeper prices here, but the dining experience is worth the bill. The menu mixes
traditional dishes and chef specials – such as crispy chicken wings with minced prawns and sweet chilli sauce – all prepared by a well-established kitchen team.
For casual, affordable grub, Rosa's Thai Cafés (including sites
in Soho
and Shoreditch) offer something for everyone, from
stuck-in-their-ways solo snackers who want to chow down on a familiar green chicken curry, to adventurous diners who can tuck into interesting salads and specials such as fish satay.
This Covent Garden café and restaurant offers guests an overflowing menu of traditional Thai dishes and a contemporary, two-floor eating space for lunch and dinner.
Whether you eat alfresco overlooking St Martin's courtyard, or watch the chef in the open kitchen whip up your chicken satay, the menu is tempting and more than affordable.
This chic, dark wood-panelled Fulham restaurant prides itself on its service, although the food has garnered helpings of praise too. Try dishes such as the plah tuna
salad (thinly sliced tuna dressed with lemongrass and fresh-mint vinaigrette) for authentic south-east-Asian flavours presented in creative original dishes.
Although takeaway Thai food might be a familiar crutch after a busy working day, Thai New Year (12-15 April) is an excuse to treat yourself to a slap-up, sit-down meal meal and break from the norm.
From modest hidden gems to popular upmarket eateries, London has no shortage of Thai restaurants to choose from – and Square Meal has rounded up some of the best.

Jen & Arquettes Enjoy Long Walks On The Beach
Jennifer, Courteney, David & Coco spent their Memorial Day enjoying the beautiful California coastline with a stroll on the Malibu beach. Hopefully the weather was as beautiful wherever you spent your Memorial Day as it looks here. It's awesome to see Jen looking so relaxed and refreshed (also, not hiding) -- better than ever. Not to mention how cute she is with little Coco, too. It's been too long since Jen has looked all Happy America's Sweetheart-y (and, to be fair, there's no need for her to act that way), but I gotta say it's nice to see her looking upbeat and gorgeous again.
To see more of the Friends (with a capital F) and baby Coco being totally cute just read more

I guess some people are into skinny legs and long arms full of veins. LOL. Or maybe Helmet hair? Gorgeous and Aniston in the same sentence makes so much sense cause she doesn't pretend to be anything else except herself. She has lovely healthy curves and her arms have enough fat on them. Thanks POP for posting she looks great. At least she has friends (unlike someone else I know..)

I've always like Jen's look, the natural, youthful, sweet, sexy with absolutely beautiful hair and timeless beauty that is very becoming. At 38yrs she looks way too young for her age,unlike Whorelina, who looks like a wrinkly 42yrs old at 32yrs.

While I don't think Jen is a classic beauty, such as a Marilyn Monroe, she does have fantastic legs and a great ass! For me, I think the only time I would take heed of her would be if she was bending over in front of me. If I happened to be behind her and she dropped her keys, etc. and bent over to pick them up, I would be titillated. Her personality seems quirky enough, but romantically she seems adrift. Most of the time when I see images of her, she appears lugubrious.

'His behaviour constitutes a breach of trust which harms the public, harms morality, and harms the public's trust, in how he behaved corruptly'
"Life for Israelis and Palestinians is not perfect, but a two-state solution is possible only if the Palestinians want and accept peaceful coexistence with Israel."
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu used secret information to argue against emerging deal with Iran and gave it U.S. legislators, Wall Street Journal reports
The move appeared to be an attempt to heal rifts and mute criticism. Netanyahu drew accusations of racism in Israel, especially from its Arab minority, and a White House rebuke
As 1900 approaches, my great-grandfather is faced with the challenge that will face American Jewry in the 21st century: how to maintain a Jewish identity in an open world, how to preserve a Judaism not shielded by the walls of a ghetto, how to prevent the dispersion of the Jews into the liberty and prosperity of the modern West.
Harper's more low-key approach on Sunday contrasts with that of Barack Obama, who has publicly expressed his disappointment with Netanyahu's comments
"Netanyahu cannot be blamed for the lack of a peace agreement with the Palestinians."
It took just a brief look in their eyes to see that though we might vote too often here, they understand that waiting in that line is a rare privilege in this region.
Mr. Netanyahu will have a delicate task weighing the demands of his likely coalition partners against the needs of his country
The re-election of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu means the United States and Israel are now diametrically opposed on two vital international security issues

I am writing to highly recommend the Wellness Home to anyone who may be traveling to London and considering a stay at a bed and breakfast. Valerie and David were excellent hosts who were by all accounts very welcoming and considerate. The location is superb, not even a five-minute walk from the Turnham Green tube stop, which provides direct access to Westminster, Big Ben, and central London. The rooms and bathrooms were spotlessly clean; the beds and pillows very comfortable. In addition, the healthy, wholesome breakfasts practically get you through to dinner! This is one of the best places I have ever stayed and could not have hoped for a better London experience. My sincere gratitude to Valerie and David for a wonderful stay at the Wellness Home.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Our Wellness Home offers an organic vegetarian or vegan breakfast in our family kitchen and we include home-made muesli and bread, tea or coffee and freshly made vegetable juice.We provide a Wellness environment with ozone-free air filtration system, superb filtered drinking water and beds designed around the physiology of sleep. We request that guests remove their outdoor shoes on entering the house but we can provide slippers if required. Please note: our minimum stay is 2 nights. ... more less

Belize Scuba Tuesday March 15th
I am a single diver on the Seven Seas Navigator 3/12 to 3/19. The Regent line has no dive trips for certified divers and I would like to book an excursion to dive Belize. Most of the operators want a minimum of 4 people to book a trip. Looking to join up with a larger group or even assemble a group of 4 or more. Please email if you are on this cruise and would like to dive Belize.
Pat Cotter
If you have the time, in Belize best diving from the Cruise ship is in Ambergris Caye.
However, you will need to take a short flight to get to ACaye. After you tender, you will need to take a short flight (35min) (e.g Maya Air) to San Pedro and link up with a good Dive Op (e.g., Amigos Del Mar)...Dive sites are 5 min from the pier. If you do not have the time to fly to San Pedro/AC then you diving will be in/around Belize City.
Wow - great info Col - thank you.
I would just like to add that if you are to visit Belize, dive the Blue Hole because there's no other place like it and it's worthy of being in every diver's bucketlist.

Voluntary Registration for Mediators
In recent years, as mediation has become more widely recognised as an alternative to litigation, increasing numbers of individuals and organisations have set themselves up either to train mediators, and/or to practise mediation.
Current practice standards are variable, to say the least: some practitioners have minimal training but years of practical experience; some have little or no experience at all but their training providers tell them that they can call themselves 'accredited mediators' just by attending their course, while others are offering something they call mediation, which unfortunately turns out to be something else altogether!
#Dressgate & Mediation
You can't have missed the social media storm that was dressgate.
It all started at a wedding in Scotland and like an apocalyptic pandemic it soon engulfed the entire world with everyone from Neuroscientists to The Washington Post and from US Senators to Kim Kardashian getting involved
One man in a moment of questionable judgement even rushed out to get a tattoo of a blue and black dress upon his person.
Big Increase in Court fees from Today
From today, Monday 9th March 2015, the UK government will be increasing the fees in the civil courts for money claims exceeding the value of £20,000. Under the new scale, fees will be calculated as 5% of the value of the claim, up to a ceiling of £10,000. Discounts will be applied to claims submitted electronically.
So, for example, if you issued proceedings for a £20,000 claim last Friday, you would have paid £610. If you do it today, it will cost you £1,000. But for a claim of £200,000, the fee goes up today from £1,315 to a whopping £10,000, almost a seven-fold increase! The aim is to raise more money to fund the courts

BO Trainer Broken
I looked back and didn't notice any thread for this, which shocks me. This is a huge PITA. I've been stuck with BOff powers I don't want for *days* because the BO Trainer is broken.
Whether or not it's known is not the issue, but the fact that it hasn't been fixed is. This isn't brain surgery... the trainer works fine everywhere else. How hard is it to do a quick patch with the working code? The servers were taken down for an hour later on the same day the trainer lost functionality to fix something. Sounds like that would have been a good time to fix something that effects gameplay a lot more than whatever the other problem was.
i agree I am hoping this is fixed because i am tired of not being about to train my BO like i want. I am hoping this week it gets fixed but probably not. So far i am beginning to run into more problems at captain than i did before. So keep fingers crossed they get fixed asap....
