Working on the rigging of the sail training ship ' Spirit of New Zealand ' at Auckland, New Zealand alongside the Maritime Museum at Princes wharf.
It has certainly changed since my days at sea – I never had the company of a lovely young lady like this when working aloft – I usually had some hairy deckhand with a personal hygiene problem !

From a single RAW image.
I'm not surprised! To be honest I think I would have a personal hygiene problem if I had to go up there! Great photo Roy.
Thank you for the compliment Peter – I used to love working aloft in my younger day but I'm the wrong shape now…..lol !
– Roy Massicks
Now this I can relate to…… As I have done it myself.
A good capture.
Cheers Larry, good fun swinging around up there eh ? Thanks for the kind words.
– Roy Massicks
What a super capture dear Roy.x
Many thanks Catherine !
– Roy Massicks
now you get down from there captain,your supposed to be at the helm,great shot roy,cheers mike
Glad it's not me these days Mike – wrong shape ! Thank you for your kind comments.
– Roy Massicks
Ahhh times have changed Roy xx
Thank you very much Lynn – they sure have ! I hear they even have carpets, washing machines and TV's these days……lol !
– Roy Massicks
Great shot Roy.
Many thanks Gary. This shot reminds me of an old sea ditty about the rigging but I promise I won't sing it here !
– Roy Massicks
Great image Roy, my problem would be more in the squeaky you know what department.
Thank you Alex – I used to love it, going up aloft but not any more due to my shape ! I can well remember an episode where my cabin mate had just stolen a string of sausages from the galley porthole and not having had a chance to hide them properly, stuck them down the waist of his shorts.
Well, there we were swinging around the top mast painting when a passenger spied three links of sausages hanging out of his shorts leg ! She squeaked and pointed and in a panic he took his deck knife, cut them off ! This produced even more mayhem ! Yes, there was a very nasty conclusion to this story for him.

Blue Bomber Report Record: 7–11–0
Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
New beginnings
Blue Bombers rookie camp getting underway in Florida
BRADENTON, Fla. -- The curtain will rise here this weekend on a new era of Winnipeg Blue Bombers football, giving Bombers fans their first indication of whether the 2014 production is going to be a hit, or just the latest in a long line of flops.
The Bombers are holding their annual spring mini-training camp just south of Tampa on Florida's Gulf Coast, beginning on Sunday.
While the locale is new to the Bombers, Winnipeg's decision to hold their rookie camp here is hardly revolutionary -- other CFL teams, notably the Saskatchewan Roughriders, have been holding their spring camps here for years.
The weather is obviously better and more reliable; it's cheaper to fly mostly U.S.-based players here than to Canada; and if you want to hold a surreptitious workout of an unsigned player on the side, well, hey, it's not like there will be many people watching down here, right?
But what will be new and dramatic and -- long-suffering Bombers fans are hoping -- revolutionary at the IMG Football Academy is this will be the first unveiling of what the rookie triumvirate of CEO Wade Miller, GM Kyle Walters and head coach Mike O'Shea have in mind for the Bombers this season.
While Miller and Walters took over midway through the 2013 season, they inherited a mess of a club and its former head coach, Tim Burke, and were forced to make the best of it in what were at the time interim roles.
But Miller and Walters had those interim tags lifted over the winter and the 2014 Bombers are going to be entirely their handiwork, beginning with the new head coach they hired in O'Shea, who -- like his GM and CEO -- is also new to the job description and learning on the fly.
It is unusual and a bit risky to operate a football team with rookies in the three key jobs of CEO, GM and head coach. But Walters says he sees Winnipeg's lack of experience at the top as a strength rather than a weakness.
"The biggest advantage the three of us have," Walters mused earlier this month, "is that we're all smart enough to know that we're all relatively new to this. And so we lean on each other mentally. There's no hidden agendas, there's no one saying, 'I have to have my way because that's the way I've always done it.'
"We're very good at closing the door and throwing ideas around. It's a fantastic dialect when the three of us get together to discuss issues. We vet the problems, everyone has input and that's the biggest advantage -- there's no one saying this is the way we've always done things, blah, blah, blah.
"That's so common in some workplaces. But with three fresh people with no egos, there's been none of that. It's been great."
While that sounds good, talk is cheap and Walters is the first to agree the actual result of all that feel-good back and forth in the Bombers offices this winter will be determined on the field, not behind closed doors.
After beefing up their scouting department over the winter and holding what's believed to be an unprecedented number of free-agent camps -- 12, as compared to 3-4 in recent years -- the Bombers invited 48 players (at last count) to Florida, where the team will hold two-a-days on Sunday and Monday and one more practice on Tuesday morning before everyone flies home.
The invitees include the four quarterbacks the Bombers expect to take to main training camp in Winnipeg later this spring -- Max Hall and newcomers Drew Willy, Brian Brohm and Robert Marve. The rest of the list is made up of mostly CFL rookies signed over the winter, as well as a handful of free agents and negotiation-list players the club wants to get a closer look at before deciding whether to bring them up for main camp in Winnipeg.
"We want to find the players that are going to come in and challenge our guys," O'Shea said recently about his goals for mini-camp. "And we want to teach them the Canadian game, so they're not caught off-guard. We want guys to have an understanding in terms of the football expectations when they come to the main camp...
"I've got high expectations."
Miller says while the club embarked this winter upon a major rebuilding, he expects some of the changes already put in place, particularly in the scouting department, to have an immediate positive effect that should already be evident on the field down here.
"We're going to see some results for sure. We've been working hard towards that," said Miller. "We're going to compete hard this year. We want to win and we want to win now -- there's no question about that.
"Is this going to take some time? Of course it is. Anytime you have change in an organization -- and a football team especially -- it's going to take some time to get adjusted... but we know what our mandate is and what we need to do."

Kelly Rowland Breaks Down Beyonce and Michelle Williams' Work on 'You Changed'
R&B diva Kelly Rowland is excited about her collaborative song with Beyonce and Michelle Williams for her upcoming album, 'Talk a Good Game.'
R&B diva Kelly Rowland is excited about her collaborative song with Beyonce and Michelle Williams for her upcoming album, 'Talk a Good Game.'
Blue Ivy is already trying to steal the show from her superstar parents.
Time has named its Most Influential People in the World for 2013. This list focuses on the 100 gamechangers of 2013, and points the finger (in a good way) at Beyonce, Justin Timberlake and several other key players in pop music.
We all know Beyonce has a rather, shall we say, contentious relationship with photographers.
Her publicist famously asked news outlets and photo agencys to remove all unflattering photos of Queen B, so it should come as no surprise to us that Bey has banned any professional photographers from snapping photos at The Mrs. Carter Show tour.
With a new H&M campaign hawking beykinis, a lucrative Pepsi sponsorship and several other business ventures in her portfolio, Beyonce may have tipped the financial scales in an astronomical way, making her and Jay-Z the first billionaire couple.
Beyonce launched the Mrs. Carter World Tour this past week in Serbia. And to her surprise, the Queen B was attacked by the BeyHive! Watch the video inside…
Six days before Beyonce kicks off her European tour in Paris on April 24, the R&B queen has announced that Luke James will be her featured opening act.
Snippets of songs from the soundtrack to Baz Luhrmann's film, 'The Great Gatsby,' have surfaced online. The two most anticipated songs from the collection are from Mr. and Mrs. Carter.
After returning from their romantic anniversary vacay in Cuba (which had everyone up in arms), seems Jay-Z now has plans to buy wife Beyonce her own island.
Because when you're Jay-Z and have a $227,000 American Express balance, picking up some flowers at the gas station last-minute just isn't going to cut it.
On Monday, Beyonce kicked off her much-anticipated "Mrs. Carter Show Tour" in Belgrade, Serbia.

Much-disliked Spacek somehow has managed to be +9 both years he was with the Habs (2nd and 1st on the team, only behind Andrei Markov once) while playing tough minutes out of position. Advanced stats tell us this didn't happen by chance. He's been a perfectly fine top-4 D-man for the entirety of his Habs career.
Gorges is also an extremely solid defensive-minded top-4 D-man who can limit scoring chances even against tough opposition.
Toronto's blueline, by contrast, is full of players longer in reputation than ability (Phaneuf, Schenn) and sorely lacking in vital puck movement skills. Individually the players are not bad, but the unit as a whole is poorly constructed. It gets a lot of praise for its size and physicality, which obviates the fact that these do not constitute defense on their own, and that
the unit is very low on puck-movers.
We have one puck mover with NHL experience and that is Subban, they have one and it is Liles. We have a puck mover who is a rookie (Diaz) and they have one who is a rookie (Gardner). I would rate Phaneuf ahead of Campoli in that area. I don't consider Gorges or Spacek to be a tremendous puck moving defensemen, certainly no better than Gunnarson and probably not as good.
Maybe I am over-rating the Toronto defense here but it seems to me that it is a unit that has a reasonable balance among size, skill and toughness. I wouldn't gloat about how much superior we are in that area just yet.

I've certainly had worse ear worms
Friday night the drama club at the high school put on 2 one act plays. There was a 15 minute break between plays and a pianist played both before the plays and between them.
Before he played a couple of Beatles tunes and a couple I didn't know the name of but they were pleasant.
The plays were good but what we really remember was the unlikely group with Fur Elise.
Between plays he began playing "Fur Elise", I have always loved this but after a few bars a girl came out beside the piano with a flute. I kind of groaned inwardly thought it would probably be slaughtered then after a few bars with them together a boy with an oboe began playing with them and a few bars later a girl with a guitar joined in. About as unlikely bunch for Fur Elise as you could imagine.
But we and the audience were absolutely enchanted the music was beautiful. The girl with the flute was definetly the lead with all others accompanyment.
The group of instrument sounds unlikely but it was wonderful..Mr. Beethoven would have loved it too.
Wonder who Elise was? Now I'm still hearing that music constantly.
Since I got nosey too, I checked a couple of dissertataions on that subject on the German internet. Nobody seems to know. Several women in Beethoven's circle of friends and family had names which could have been changed to Elise, a very fashionable name at that time, but there is no proof.

Produced by a Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science, this gathering patrician Science and Critical Thinking presents a array of convincing vignettes designed to applaud the energy of science from singular perspectives. Each didactic shred facilities insights from a row of philosophers, professors, scientists and veteran skeptics. At a core of it all is Dawkins himself, a eminent figure who started his substructure as a means of swelling a gospel of evolution, and preventing a annihilation from classrooms and other forums via a world.
These evolutionary beliefs are illustrated in several of a segments hosted by Dawkins, including one patrician Saddles and Domes: Evolution of a Giant Tortoises. In this vignette, Dawkins explores a ability of these fascinating creatures to adjust to new environments, quite by a revision of their protecting shells. In another shred patrician Why Are There Still Chimpanzees?, Dawkins explains a evolutionary attribute with a planet's hierarchy of primates. Psychology highbrow Robert Seyfarth continues a scrutiny of a gorilla by examining a calls of a vervet monkey, that might offer as an denote of a beginning forms of language.
The element contained in Science and Critical Thinking serves an vicious function, generally in a midst of a multitude that too mostly trades a value of systematic reasoning for conspiracies, shoal speculations and ill-considered teachings. "You supply yourself with information about a universe to be lettered opposite a whole range, and generally to be scientifically literate," says A.C. Grayling, a worshiped philosopher and one of a film's renowned hosts. "To be an sensitive member in a good review of humankind is to have an warning recognition and bargain of what's function in a world.'
In Grayling's view, doubt and vicious meditative are peerless to heading a inestimable existence and realizing a intensity of your humanity; a view echoed via a instructions of any educational shred of a film.
Fast-paced, fascinating and informative, Science and Critical Thinking explores a attribute to and continued bargain of a evolutionary process, a justification of that we declare opposite scarcely each aspect of a daily sourroundings and in a farthest reaches of a globe.

In fact, one would be hard-pressed to find an obsession some-more hackneyed than a one we knowledge for sugar. But it's an obsession that could be murdering us in record numbers.
The documentary patrician The Secrets of Sugar examines this obsession and a hazardous impact on a contentment of a tellurian society. Extensive investigate has pinpointed sugar's blame in a series of a many common and life-threatening ailments, including high blood pressure, obesity, heart disease, cancer, diabetes and even Alzheimer's disease.
The weight detriment craze that began holding figure in a 1980′s originated as an conflict opposite fat. Yet, even in a meridian where a open enjoys rare entrance to low or no-fat foods, a rates of deleterious illness sojourn alarmingly high. "Which is worse: a sugarine or a fat? The sugar, a thousand times over," asserts Dr. Robert Lustig, a pediatric endocrinologist who serves as one of a film's pivotal talk subjects. In his view, sugarine is a poison and serves as a recipe of drop for people of all ages. As a heading crusader opposite a dangers of sugar, Dr. Lustig faces an ascending conflict in altering existent practices within a food attention and educating an gullible open who falls chase to their tactics.
According to a observations presented in The Secrets of Sugar, these strategy embody obscure or dubious nourishment labels, hairy science, and a ascent of an promotion debate unmatched in scale even by a likes of a tobacco industry.
Without a change in open consciousness, a superiority of sugarine in a daily diets threatens to worsen illness epidemics to an even larger degree, and might eventually lead to a failure of a whole medical complement within a United States and Canada. By exploring an emanate that too mostly stays obscured, The Secrets of Sugar seeks to light a transformation among a viewers to redress this unfortunate trend before it's too late.

The Jobs Game opens with a story of a immature mom who has been absent from a pursuit marketplace for 8 years, and has found no fitness in securing re-entry.

Her community, and a bland struggles with that she contingency contend, are emblematic of Australia as a whole. The nation is now pang a top rates of stagnation in over twelve years. In response to this crisis, a supervision has shaped Job Services Australia, a module designed to get people behind to work.
At a cost of $1.3 billion a year, a module can have a inclusive impact in nurturing a strong economy and in restoring a spirit of a residents. But widespread rascal has sabotaged these efforts, and dashed a hopes of an fervent workforce in waiting.
How distinguished are these instances of fraud? According to a 2012 news from a country's Federal Department of Employment, usually 40% of a fees paid by a module to pursuit chain agencies are verifiable.

America a Beautiful is examining a standard standards of beauty in United States by articulate in infrequent settings with standard Americans, "normal" people, for miss of a improved word. From what group demeanour for in women, to what women and immature girls consider of themselves, we hear a innumerable of responses per what creates a chairman beautiful, and therefore desirable.
If complicated standards of beauty, and a approach a media saturates us with them, is a cause, afterwards low self venerate in women and girls opposite a nation is a effect; during slightest if we are to trust a indicate of perspective championed by several people interviewed via a movie. Although not everybody concerned with a film tends to agree, this documentary takes a tough position behind a mistreat caused by industries like conform and party that mount to benefit from what is mostly called "the beauty myth."
The personal and veteran story of former indication Gerren Taylor (who after went on to seem in a brief lived wire radio existence show) and her knowledge as a runway indication from age 12 to roughly 15 years of age, is intertwined with a themes, statistics, and arrange of anti conform and displaying attention position presented by several people being interviewed in a film, including Gerren's center propagandize principal.

We're given a possibility to see things from a full spectrum if we know where and how to look, and there are copiousness of subtleties to be left adult to interpretation by a viewer.

The new millennium brought onward a tidal change in a song attention and one artist stood tallest in that transformation. Marshall Mathers, some-more ordinarily famous as Eminem, swept a tellurian song stage with his singular phrasing, spreading productions, and roughly uncomfortably confessional lyrics. The new documentary Not Afraid: The Shady Records Story, constructed by Complex Media, traces a duration arise of Eminem by his solo efforts, high-profile collaborations, and a arrangement of his possess association Shady Records.
The origins of Eminem's career as swat luminary began underneath a origin of Dr. Dre, who unprotected his immature protégé to a possibilities of song production, and a origination of a consistently provocative sonic knowledge that carries over a march of an whole album. Another early collaborative change was Paul Rosenberg, a budding song manager who always dreamed of starting his possess record label. Hitting it off with Eminem on their initial assembly in 1997, a dual would make that dream a existence dual years after with a first of Shady Records. Their partnership is sketched in a classical creative-managerial mold; Eminem lives for a studio, crafting a many appealing and provocative beats he can conjure, while Rosenberg works to labour a picture of their company, and markets any prolongation to strech a many receptive masses.
The film's mural of a artistic behemoth during a core – Eminem – is quite revealing. Surprisingly constant and humble, Eminem uses his company's height to pointer many impossibly singular and gifted artists who started with him prolonged before celebrity hit, and his contributions have catapulted their low-pitched success into a stratosphere. In annoy of a plateau of accolades and awards of approval he's perceived over a march of his career, he refuses to rest on his laurels.

What might have started as a elementary assembly of a minds, where stream issues could be discussed, analyzed and debated, would shortly morph into something distant some-more sinister in a influence.
Cloaked in a shadows from a light of open scrutiny, these emperors of industry began to form their possess self-indulgent agendas, and wielded their measureless energy and resources to redesign a universe in their vision. They called themselves a Bilderberg group, and their classification still exists and operates to this day.
Today, this aged establishment contingency duty in a meridian that has turn some-more wakeful of their sold code of back-door dealings, interjection to a new call of savvy inquisitive reporters and a withering and judicious new documentary patrician Bilderberg'$ Club. The film takes on a staggering charge of bark divided a tip story and ongoing change of a organization.
The group's stream membership, as settled in a film by talk theme and editor of a American Free Press Jim Tucker, are "a garland of unscrupulous, lousy, decaying general criminals."

In a opening moments of Our Rising Oceans we learn that tellurian disaster lies underneath a grand dark blue skies and resounding white icescapes of West Antarctica. The systematic information per a effects of meridian change on a ongoing routine of freezing melting is overwhelming. Yet according to a many subjects featured in a film, a towering commission of a open stays doubtful, and a politicians and other routine influencers sojourn wavering to act due to ill-informed doubt and corporate interests.
In response to those naysayers, VICE owner and horde Shane Smith ventures to a epicenter of a predicament to learn firsthand a scholarship by that these changes are being observed, and a apocalyptic consequences of inaction.
"Antarctica is starting to melt," warns consultant glaciologist Dr. Eric Rignot. Over a past twenty years, Dr. Rignot has analyzed reams of delicately procured data, and his discoveries prove a fast deteriorating sourroundings that could perpetually change a predestine of mankind. Here, in a midst of a Antarctic plains, breeze is present during an rare rate and pulling comfortable waters underneath a large sheets of ice. This energetic effectively melts these sheets from a bottom up, and has a profoundly pathetic impact on rising sea levels.
Over a march of a film, Dr. Rignot is assimilated by a horde of additional scientists who dedicate their lives to temperament declare to these shocking changes, and posterior solutions opposite a antithesis of politicized stagnation. But even in a deficiency of this opposition, a catastrophic effects of meridian change might be too distant left to rectify. Dr. Rignot contends that even a strictest glimmer regulations can't retreat a tides of a redefining tellurian landscape. Others attest that additional environmental insurance policies might delayed a process, though will by no means pledge a sustainability of destiny generations.
But even a slivers of wish that do exist seem unfit to comprehend given a gridlock of bureaucratic care within a United States, as a member sojourn neatly divided on a small existence of meridian change. "I consider it's roughly like denying sobriety now," says Vice President Joe Biden in an talk that closes a film. Our Rising Oceans paints a absolute mural of a world on a margin of ruin, and a domestic dysfunction that continues to pull it over a edge.

In a past several years, a Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), has forcefully taken a building in regions via a Middle East, and a inflection of their singular code of terror continues to enhance on a daily basis. Few of a world's inhabitants have been defence to visit news reports of a mass killings, monster beheadings and other acts of blood curdling fear perpetrated by this most feared militant organization.
The frightening and timely new documentary ISIS: On a Frontline, constructed by Ahlulbayt TV, places us during a epicenter of this ever-evolving cancer, and follows a dauntless Iraqi adults who have dared to mount joined in their rebuttal of ISIS.
"There is no doubt that when ISIS attempted to take over certain tools of Iraq, their aim was to seize a whole nation regardless of a sacrament followed," attests Sayed Ammar Al-Hakim, a President of a Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq, during a march of a film. According to a testimony of Al-Hakim and others, ISIS militants have shown no bias to any sold sacrament or sect, and have indiscriminately massacred anyone who stands in antithesis to their rule. In response to this threat, normal Iraqi adults have been speedy to enroll in a troops to urge their position within their homeland.

For viewers who have deliberate a hazard of ISIS usually from a outsider's viewpoint driven by western media outlets, ISIS: On a Frontline offers a profitable mural of a fight being waged on a inside. The hurdles faced by those who chose to fight this brutalizing hazard are vast, and most blood will be strew before an finish is reached.

Earth on Fire is a one hour, Australian special that focuses on mega fires and fires in ubiquitous as they describe to a forests and ecosystem. This documentary reminds us that a thought of a healthy and ideal state of things isn't always formed on a existence that ever existed outward of a possess complicated world, and it does this by examining a rather stream widespread of mega fires via a globe.
It doesn't come as a warn to many that fires can and do hurt topsoil in immeasurable amounts of timberland areas, changing a rate of expansion when it comes to leaflet in those areas. One such area that has been altered by time by fire's affects are a forests in New Mexico, that one of a documentary's dual narrators visits to pronounce about a story of fires in a area with internal ecologists and glow fighters. What were a forests like in a time of a local Pueblos, and how were they influenced by a fires we see as a arrange of ultimate environmental hazard? The answers to these questions might warn you.
As Earth on Fire is an Australian production, a film also visits forests there and shows viewers initial palm a sorts of leaflet and landscapes being influenced by mega fires. In Australia, we find out that certain trees have developed along side fire, wanting it to origin a seeds and concede underlying buds to sprout.
All trees enclose fuels, and some tree's leaves are naturally doused in oil, in fact it is given of trees and other land plants that glow is even possible. Just as glow can be both good and bad for trees and forests, fires and a meridian also have a arrange of give and take relationship; any affects a other.
Knowledge of things like this helps Australian ecologists answer questions as to either or not issues with fires in a forests that approximate them are singular or not. Knowledge of what a trees have to tell us does a same. We can see glow scars, age rings, and even either or not there were droughts in a tree's lifetime by simply looking during a bark, and meaningful what to demeanour for.
Unique hurdles now face forests around a universe that don't see any approach advantage as a outcome of burning, and even those that mount to benefit can be spoiled by too most too shortly when it comes to uncontainable flames. While there are ways that fires can be manipulated by male in allege of any vital issues, a methods behind this run discordant to a enlightenment of glow termination that has been inbred in many of us given most longer ago than many can even remember.
You'll be vacant during all we don't know about a ethereal change between fire, trees, and a climate. What this film lacks in frills it creates adult for in facts, and it would be utterly tough to watch Earth on Fire but gaining some arrange of believe about things we substantially feel we know some-more than adequate about.

Throughout a history, amiability has set a sights on clearly unfit goals, and found a approach to comprehend those goals opposite all obstacles. This grand power is on full arrangement in a opening moments of a new documentary The Choice is Ours, as late NASA wanderer and veteran astronomer Jeff Hoffman testifies to a glories of space travel.
With unparalleled willpower and ingenuity, we crafted a collection and technologies to try what was once singular to a fabrications of Hollywood parable makers. But even from atmospheres over a own, a earthbound hurdles we have nonetheless to conquer sojourn in full view. Having manned mixed space flights over a march of many years, this existence became apparent to Professor Hoffman as he gazed on a surfaces of a universe from his capsule. "There's a viewpoint of a impact that humans have had on a planet, and that can be flattering scary," he reflects.
The many dire issues confronting humankind currently – from meridian change to widespread crime to financial difficulty to a fast exhausting healthy resources of a universe – take core theatre in The Choice is Ours, though they're approached from a refreshingly singular perspective. This elegantly constructed film promotes a ability to plead certain change in a world, and considers a behavioral and informative shifts that contingency take place to make this possible.
The Choice is Ours is a prolongation of The Venus Project, an classification clinging to uncovering innovative new approaches to problem solving. The organization's founder, 97-year aged futurist Jacques Fresco, serves as a principal beam via a film's narrative. With convincing and clear insight, Fresco argues for a reconsideration of what is probable in any of us, and by extension, a universe during large. In examining either a behaviors are dynamic by tellurian nature, or by interesting a sourroundings that surrounds us, a film offers clues as to how we can start to reconstruct a existence of a universe from a belligerent up.
If defeating self-doubt and detachment were a manners that governed a class decades ago, would we have ever invented a record to try into outdoor space? By requesting a same power of certain concentration to tellurian pursuits, we can urge a viewpoint of a planet, even from a stars.

In reduction than 50 years, sea life as we know it could be totally finished for. This not usually means passed oceans, though a passed ecosystem, and mass deaths of all who count on it. That means us. Does this sound distant flung? So does a thought that vertebrate life in a oceans has decreased some-more than half in a past 40 years, though those are a statistics expelled by a World Wildlife Foundation's 2014 Living Planet Index. In 1990, governments began to accommodate and plead what we can do to revoke CO emissions and equivocate tellurian warming.
According to information supposing in a Drop in The Ocean, there are now 61% some-more CO glimmer in a atmosphere than there were behind then. What does it all mean, and what can we do now to urge things for ourselves and generations to come? These are a questions examined in this film.
As a film points out, many complicated luxuries like tellurian transport and a prolongation of record minister to tellurian warming. Should we give these up, or are there smarter approaches to take towards shortening CO emissions? What competence those approaches be, and how can governments get on board, fundamentally heading countries full of adults who have already voiced interests in these sorts of activities on a same path? The answers exist, during slightest partially, in a form of vital institutions such as hospitals that use measureless amounts of energy, and tiny towns where village run breeze industries can offer genuine solutions to those who would opt for healthy appetite alternatives though simply can't means them during a going rate.
There is as many systematic justification behind a dangers of meridian change as there is behind a couple between smoking cigarettes and cancer. While management total can repudiate meridian change all together, or during slightest put off any approach movement to urge things until it serves them some arrange of approach benefit, a reason many bland people donќt lift meridian change issues during a forefront of their minds is utterly different. Think about it, how mostly are we influenced by what happens in a healthy world, and to what extent?
Ireland being tighten to, and in some places, (including a ports) during sea turn means that it is during a sold risk, though it is not a usually place. Factual information being relayed to bland people and approach movement from a governments can change things. Those who mount to advantage from a complement that means financial benefit for a few during a cost of dangerous meridian change and rising oceans for all of us have opposite priorities than a good many of us.

The medical village has prolonged avowed a countless risk factors compared with an diseased diet. The dishes we eat can play a primary purpose in last a disadvantage towards many potentially life-threatening conditions including obesity, high blood pressure, heart illness and diabetes.
But stream nutritive investigate studies are examining a links between diet and ongoing illness from a earnest new perspective: a interactions between a germ in food and a gut.
According to a divulgence insights presented in a new documentary Gut Reaction, a pivotal to illness impediment might distortion in how we chose to uphold a germ that resides in a intestines. For many years, scholarship regarded germ in many a same proceed as a open during large. Bacteria were noticed as nasty and melancholy parasitic life forms that contingency be avoided and stable opposite during all costs. Just a few brief years ago, however, complicated technologies authorised us a look into a middle workings of a microbial universe like never before.
Through endless investigate that stays ongoing, we've come to know a many advantages compared with a germ that exists within a bodies. This "good" germ regulates a defence complement and determines a defenses opposite potentially damaging germ from a outward world. In so doing, it also maintains a essential purpose in a areas of mental and earthy wellness.
Gut Reaction shows us how inlet works to acclimate us to a participation of profitable germ from a really commencement stages of life. Through a routine of vaginal childbirth, a baby is awash in a healthy germ of their mother, and this creates a refuge from that they can build defenses opposite damaging environmental elements. Researchers now trust that a shocking arise in cesarean births has denied many infants of this security, and increasing incidents of asthma, allergies and other ongoing conditions have been a result. This energetic carries on into adulthood and is mostly reflected by a unfamiliar and diseased germ that dwell in many of a dishes we eat.
Could a germ be a ultimate barometer for measuring a risks for a world's many inauspicious diseases? Gut Reaction captures a promises of this sparkling new area of nutritive research, and suggests a uninformed proceed to a ailments that extent a longevity as a species.

In a face of potentially life-threatening dangers, they dauntless to pronounce law to power. They're a whistleblowers; a crusaders for law who mostly mount as a sole couple between depraved corporate and bureaucratic interests and a public's right to know. The stirring film War on Whistleblowers, destined by acclaimed documentarian Robert Greenwald, outlines a hurdles and sacrifices faced by these untiring activists, and calls courtesy to their augmenting significance in a multitude where a absolute are some-more omniscient and unregulated than ever before.
Thanks to a efforts of Edward Snowden, a purpose of a whistleblower has gained a turn of inflection in a enlightenment distinct anything we've witnessed given a Watergate era. The arrangement of unconditional inhabitant confidence structures in a issue of a Sep 11 attacks begat a new call of permissiveness in how comprehension was collected. As illustrated in a top-secret materials expelled by Snowden, this comprehension entertainment enclosed rare invasions of remoteness and instances of rarely controversial electronic notice practices.
The film spotlights a frightening charge that followed as a outcome of Snowden's actions in a form of a widespread government-sanctioned allegation campaign. In a process, a open was urged to doubt either Snowden was a loyalist or a traitor.
"It's intensely dangerous in America right now to be right as a whistleblower when a supervision is so wrong," concedes Thomas Drake, a former comparison executive of a United States National Security Agency and one of a film's arch talk subjects. Drake is assimilated in a film by a row of additional renowned subjects who know a perils of whistleblowing all too well, including Daniel Ellsberg, a troops confidant who leaked rarely supportive supervision papers associated to a Vietnam War in 1971, and David Carr, a late New York Times publisher who built a career embodying a virtues of law and transparency.
Whether operative to overpower a upsurge of information from a sole wolf or an whole news media, a increasingly inhospitable sourroundings that works to mishandle a efforts of a modern-day whistleblowers leaves us all vulnerable.

Silencing a Thunder presents audiences with a hurdles confronting bison (or buffalo) conversationalist, and cattle ranchers in Montana and nearby Yellowstone National Park. Brucellosis, a illness that is carried by defence elk and buffalo, and has never been transmitted from bison to cattle in any reported cases, is open rivalry series one for Montana cattle ranchers who trust a buffalo should be traumatically driven away, or worse, on exiting Yellow Stone National Park.
Some ranchers, like a one featured in this documentary, site skill drop as another reason since a stream methods, that are described early on in Silencing a Thunder, are a scold approach of going about determining a animal. However, residents of Yellowstone who are nearby adequate to a park to have a current opinion on a matter will contend prosaic out that a genuine means of repairs is bison being frightened by a sounds of sleet mobiles or helicopters used to follow them away.
Chasing buffalo divided with a assist of a aforementioned machinery, sharpened them on site, or herding them off and promulgation them to massacre houses, as against to Yellow Stone National Park where they are protected, is a approach a buffalo emanate is rubbed in Montana. The largest partial of that emanate being a income it costs ranchers in a beef attention to have their stock tested for brucellosis if bison association with them and a volume of extending buffalo would do on open land if they were authorised to leave a park. Should giveaway roaming animals be cramped from open spaces utterly presumably since a beef attention is against to giveaway and open weed that afterwards helps ranchers make income in a private sector? Silencing a Thunder opens your mind to questions like this and more.
Questions or dilemmas aren't a usually thing this film has to offer, it also offers singular solutions to issues lifted by ranchers that are being used in some places already. The solutions seem even some-more value essay towards when we cruise a bison as a unwavering being rather than a hazard to your bottom line.
While we might find yourself similar overwhelmingly with one side or a other, it is value observant that people with clearly loyal philosophy who seem to trust in a correctness of their statements are being interviewed here. Neither side of a contention is represented by an apparent ignoramus and this directorial choice, nonetheless "these casting choices" might be a some-more accurate statement, says a lot for change and a eagerness to tell a story and benefaction an emanate but seeking to change it in any approach as a executive or narrator.

In a beginning origins of time, as complicated scholarship has been means to conclude it, a star was firmly squeezed into an roughly unimaginably tiny space. Billions of stars and galaxies were afterwards distant and widespread out among a star by a routine that is famous as a Big Bang.
If this enlargement had been positively well-spoken and perfect, afterwards complicated systematic proof dictates that intelligent life as we know it could not exist. Our planet's inhabitants usually exist in a imperfections – or fluctuations – of a universe's expansion. This source has prolonged undetermined a world's tip scientists and astrophysicists, and it serves as a fascinating basement for Custom Universe: Fine Tuned for Us?
As a film's many worshiped and achieved subjects attest, these imperfections resemble "fine-tunings", and it seems rarely doubtful that they were a outcome of totally pointless coincidence. In fact, scientists are assured that these fine-tunings were privately designed to concede for a existence of intelligent life forms on a planet. For some, this justification of pell-mell sequence in a star speaks to a participation of a aloft power. Others have done it their life's query to find an reason for these obscure concepts by systematic regard and reasoning.
As illustrated in a film, some of a theories that have resulted from these systematic explorations are a bit far-reaching. Are we vital in a together universe? Are aliens obliged for a existence on a planet? Are we merely projections of a mechanism module that exists distant into a future?
Or maybe Earth is merely a one world out of all a billions of planets in a star that only so happened to be ideally matched for a existence of life. This "multiverse" judgment is one of a vital theories that has perplexed a courtesy of a systematic village in new years. "If there are many, many universes with many, many opposite features, afterwards it's no warn that there's one that would fit us," explains mathematical physicist Brian Greene, one of a pivotal subjects featured in a film.

Filmmaker Thomas Behrend has endured a hazardous 8 hour expostulate by a jungles of a Central African Republic to strech a medium of 3,000 silverback Makumbas, a stately and generally mild-mannered gorilla. Assisted by universe eminent zoologist Angelique Todd, who is famous as "The Gorilla Whisperer", and a group of inventive trackers, Behrend braves a elements and sets out to record a Makumba class in their healthy environment.
His tour of find is prisoner in The Jungle Adventure: Living among Gorillas, a divulgence demeanour during these singular and stately creatures, and a ardent conservationists who persevere their lives to watching and safeguarding them.
The Makumba are good acquainted with their tellurian neighbors, and possess a turn of comfort with them that roughly borders on a dismissive. Teams of students, scientists and other explorers from all opposite a universe mostly make a trek to a segment for a event to correlate with a gorilla, and to learn a intricacies of their function and their attribute with a universe around them.
As a film so beautifully demonstrates, clever holds are probable between these gorillas and their tellurian counterparts, generally those who deposit sufficient time, and denote a correct volume of calm and honour for a creatures and their home. Such is a box with Todd, who has remained in their association for years, watching their each pierce and custom, and even nursing them behind to health when they tumble ill.
Perhaps many profoundly, Living among Gorillas is revelatory in a depiction of Todd and others like her. The film provides a pleasing clarity of a fraudulent sourroundings in that these explorers contingency work. They nap in artless camps dark low within a jungle, and are surrounded by potentially dangerous insects and a consistent hazard of pleasant disease.
The jungles that offer as their foundations of scrutiny are not usually inhabited by a gorillas they seek; a segment is also teaming with commanding elephants who are mostly not as easy to tellurian outsiders. Their lives are driven by a same clarity of purpose that defines a film: an unquenchable enterprise to know a many stately of creatures that stock a planet, and to expose a place among them.

Collaboration is a documentary film that was combined to record a routine of an examination in collaborative work within a context of a systematic village as good as to be a messenger square to a incomparable PhD topic of tyro from Denmark named Alfred Birkegaard.

The doctrine to be schooled from Collaboration affects some-more people than those who are now in, or looking to turn concerned with, any larger systematic or educational community; nonetheless a systematic village is comprised of many people who wouldn't cruise themselves a partial of it. The film also creates we re-think how you, and how we as a whole, find to answer a tough questions, and because a stream proceed isn't a best, as valid by how quick problems can be solved when plainly sourced vs. when worked on by a singular group of scientists.
Reaping and sowing, another aspect of operative collaboratively and holding a time to use a best means as against to rushing by for ultimate finish of particular gain, is also overwhelmed on in a film in a approach that should means critically meditative audiences to take a step behind and demeanour during themselves as people as good as a universe and nation as a whole and what motivates how and because things are done. Our interests as a whole seems really angled towards reaping, as shortly and as most as we can, with no concentration on a arrange of tolerable sowing that in a past has meant a origination of things like open internet and electricity that we are means to entrance in some-more places in a grown universe than not.

The stock has gained a puny 12% in the past three years, even with its hefty stake in VMware—far behind the S&P 500's 50% advance.
The good news is that investors can win either way: If VMware is spun off, they would get shares of that faster-growing company, and it could unlock value in the unloved storage business. "That business is not being valued at nearly what it should be," says Angelo Zino, a Standard & Poor's analyst. But if VMware keeps its structure intact with its "federation" model, in which its units work independently, its stock is still likely to climb, especially if corporate information-technology spending picks up.
"A SPINOUT COULD certainly pop the stock to around $32," says David Rolfe, portfolio manager of the RiverPark/Wedgewood Retail fund (RWGFX). "But we think it gets there on its own in the not-too-distant future. And management could lever up and buy back a few more billion in stock." EMC's strong balance sheet would let it do that. The company has about $9 billion in net cash, a substantial free cash flow that's being deployed for acquisitions, a 46-cents-a-share annual dividend (initiated last year) and an expected $3 billion in stock buybacks this year alone.
EMC bulls see 10% to 20% upside, depending on the scenario.
Launched in 1979 and based in Hopkinton, Mass., EMC is led by Joe Tucci, the widely respected CEO who has been in charge since 2001. Adding to the intrigue surrounding the Elliott activist stake is that Tucci has said he plans to step aside as CEO early next year. The company didn't respond to Barron's interview requests for this story.
EMC has made big inroads in the enterprise market—data-storage products, particularly higher-end ones, sold to companies. Its global share of enterprise storage exceeds 30%, well ahead of second-place NetApp NTAP -0.535815002820079% NetApp Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD35.27 -0.19 -0.535815002820079% /Date(1427922000733-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2769543 AFTER HOURS USD35.27 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 18238 P/E Ratio 18.18041237113402 Market Cap 11054938238.747 Dividend Yield 1.8712787071165295% Rev. per Employee 498263 More quote details and news » (NTAP), which commands only about half that percentage. In the past, EMC peddled hardware with disk drives, along with integrated software and processors for things like servers, a high-margin business. Now, however, "the software is not tied to any piece of hardware," notes Toni Sacconaghi, an analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein. Software virtualization, as it is known, lets users consolidate and automate hardware, and employ it more efficiently. Instead of having a bank of servers, each devoted to a different application, virtualization allows each server to perform several functions. VMware has done this very successfully.
One of the biggest investor gripes about EMC is its faltering top-line growth, particularly in storage, which accounts for about 70% of sales. In 2011, that business had $14.7 billion in revenue, 16% above the year-earlier total. Last year, it came in at $16.1 billion, a 5% gain from the prior year's level. And in the second quarter, information infrastructure, which includes businesses like data security and analytics, eked out a 1% year-over-year revenue gain, to $4.4 billion.
EMC HAS BEEN HIT hard by slower overall IT spending, which has been rising about at a 2% to 3% annual clip, with more money going to the cloud. What's more, "Nobody knows what the data center will look like in three or four years, and, as a result, you see a lot of enterprises putting off making any major changes to their storage architecture," says Tim Daubenspeck, an analyst at ClearBridge Investments.
The days of the so-called client-server model—a company had its in-house data center—has given way to a world in which mobile devices dominate, and huge pools of data are moving to the cloud. However, the demise of the more traditional storage business isn't imminent.
Sarah Ketterer, CEO of Causeway Capital Management, which has held EMC stock since late last year, points out that many companies are "moving some applications to the cloud, but they also need traditional storage." And she adds: "We talk to chief information officers and the one area they don't want to skimp on is storage."
While trying to bolster its own cloud business, EMC is selling more products to cloud-service operators. It's also launched Pivotal, a unit in which it has a majority stake and that also draws on VMware, to develop cloud-related projects. Its second-quarter revenue was $54 million, much less than EMC's other divisions, but up nearly 30%, year over year.
VMware is a proven success. Acquired for about $625 million in 2004 and subsequently spun off, with EMC retaining an 80% stake, it's the company's crown jewel, accounting for roughly one-quarter of its revenue. VMware's second-quarter sales totaled nearly $1.5 billion, up 17%, year over year, and it's more profitable than the storage segment.
VMware plays a big role in the activist case of Paul Singer, Elliott Management's boss. "EMC has a highly unusual structure that is highly inefficient," says a person familiar with Elliott's thinking. One of the flaws of the federation structure, this person says, is that EMC and VMware compete against each other in areas such as storage.
During the company's second-quarter conference call on July 23, Tucci suggested that spinning off VMware didn't make sense. "Spinning out one of your most strategic assets—I don't know of another tech company that has done that and been successful," said Tucci, while still contending that he is open to hearing Elliott's ideas.
ANNOUNCEMENT OF a VMware spinoff could quickly boost EMC's stock. If EMC resists that move, a lengthy proxy battle could ensue.
Kulbinder Garcha, an analyst at Credit Suisse, says that if VMware is soon spun off, EMC could fetch up to $38 a share, depending on how much stock it buys back and how much debt it issues. Garcha maintains that EMC's storage business on its own would fetch a higher multiple, probably at least 10 times forward earnings, because it "has more opportunity for share gains within its main businesses and superior free-cash-flow generation, compared to peers."
Under a conservative scenario, in which EMC bought back $5 billion of its stock, the numbers would work this way: 10 times the $1.65 core EMC is expected to earn next year, or a price of $16.47; and 21 times the 75 cents VMware is likely to make next year, for a price of $15.72. Add those together and factoring in the lower share count, the stock is worth more than $33. In a more aggressive scenario, in which the company repurchases more shares, the stock could be worth $38.
The Bottom Line
EMC, recently below $30, could jump to $38 if it boosts its stock buybacks and spins off its VMware virtualization unit.
Even if VMware isn't spun off—and there's a good chance that it won't be, at least in the short term—EMC should do fine with its federation structure, though it could take longer for the stock to move.
As for the core storage business' slow growth, it has "more to do with the IT spending landscape," says S&P's Zino. "That business could start to improve once secular head winds start to subside a bit." What's more, EMC is upgrading some key products, including its high-end VMAX storage line, and that could help sales later this year.
In addition, Bernstein's Sacconaghi says Elliott's involvement likely puts a floor under the stock price: "When an activist gets involved, companies get focused on shareholder value."
So, regardless of what course EMC chooses, its stock should come out from under the cloud that's been hovering over it.

We did have 30 amp service, so could use the AC. I'd ask for shade next time, but we didn't give much notice before reserving. Restrooms and showers were very nice & clean. They had everything we needed. We had a great camping experience there. They have boat rentals, a nice lake which is across the road from the camp store.

What do you expect from a country that originally had a white population from only two different groups: Criminals, and jailers?
Reminds me of a quip from an Aussie acquaintance a few years ago: He said he was happy that Australia got the criminals and America got the religious groups.
Of course, that's not really relevant to this issue. Politicians anywhere should be assumed corrupt and on the take unless they can prove otherwise. And laws limiting the population's access to information about their government's inner workings are de-facto proof of the "otherwise".
"In the United States, free speech is given primacy among rights, and therefore the potential harm caused by restrictions on speech is thought to outweigh the potential harm caused by speech that is not restricted. In Australia free speech does not necessarily have the same primacy. "
A respected Australian retired judge would seem to endorse that view. And he not only applauds the greater restrictions on their speech that Australians "enjoy", he thinks that we don't enjoy enough of them.

Exterior of house: stucco over brick vs stucco alone
We are getting ready to start building a new house, which will have a stucco exterior, and are getting conflicting opinions about how to apply the stucco. Our builder feels strongly about first bricking the house and then applying stucco over the brick. He says that this cuts down on moisture issues that tend to be associated with stucco exteriors. However, we have talked to some stucco and masonry companies who feel that if stucco is applied correctly ( with waterproofing layer, etc) there is no need for brick. We live in Oklahoma so not sure if that makes any difference. At this point we are just trying to educate ourselves as best we can and avoid any unnecessary costs (brick plus stucco is substantially more expensive) but we certainly don't want to run into major issues down the road. If stucco over brick offers substantial benefits it would clearly be worth the cost. Any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated!
there are several stucco systems available today. a couple of the more popular are EIFS type system and a traditional 3 coat.
i think the first thing you need to explain is how your home will be constructed? A home that was constructed using standard stick framing and OSB seathing would be pretty a traditional method. if that is the case then you can more than likley use either system i listed above. both will require the application of craft paper or tar paper etc to create a barrier between the finish coat and the wood structure of the home. Todays stucco typically has an acrylic topcoat as the final finish, this will have the pigment and sand included to give your stucco the trowl finish you choose.
IMHO in my climate (denver co) i do not like traditional 3 coat stucco finishes. the 3 coat systems dry and crack out over time, even with the use of control joints. if i had to use stucco in my climate i would use a EIFS system with the proper drainage protection between the foam and the home. EIFS got a bad rap in the begining because they thought it was a barrier type finish and never anticipated the leaks around window frames etc.
Is this hard coat stucco or EIFS? EIFS I wouldn't have on a bet. . . many lawsuits from years ago and those houses are extremely hard/impossible to sell around here. I had a home with EIFS accents before this one. It sold the first day we put it on the market. I am so thankful because I am not sure it would have passed the moisture meter test . . . I have heard the best way to do hard coat stucco is cement block then stucco. I would think that is much cheaper than brick and would probably provide the same level of water resistance. . .
In the Atlanta area anything other than hardcoat stucco is nearly impossible to sell as athens eluded to. Even hardcoat has can be a tad difficult because people associate it with EIFS. The alternative is to do mortar washed brick. It gives the same appearance. That is very popular down here.
One thing you may not have considered is how it could potentially affect your Homeowners Insurance. Foe places in the country that are often hit by problems from highwinds, may find your insurance companies provide a discount due to the added protection. The discount may be signifigant. Even if you are far off from building, your insurance agent/company should be willing to give you a "what-if" quote.

This is the Aston Martin Design Prototype 100. It's the latest concept car in a series of rather good ones built for Gran Turismo 6 on the PS3, which manufacturers now seem be using as a de facto virtual motor show. And it's possibly the best one yet.
TopGear.com26 June 2014
Is this the future of Aston Martin?
DP-100 racer is the latest concept to join Gran Turismo 6 ranks. And possibly the best
The other GT6 Vision GT concepts from Mercedes, Nissan, BMW and Volkswagen, have all taken a few too many sips of the digital Kool Aid, and this is right up there. A firm riposte to many TopGear.com commenters who accuse Astons of always looking the same.
Actually, there are some familiar nods. The HDMI socket grill remains, of course, and the light blade rear lamps and judicious use of yellow are reminiscent of the CC100 Speedster Concept we saw last year. Design Director Marek Reichman says "many of the design cues visible ... could also feed through into future sports cars that we'll launch in the offline world. The importance of this project should not be underestimated."
There will also be a digital twin-turbo V12 offering up 800bhp in the game: imagine the NA monster from the One-77 with a couple of massive blowers on it, although that can probably remain strictly a virtual fantasy for now.
A model of the car will be at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend. Worth a poke around to get close to the future of Aston Martin. You never know, the Mercedes Gran Turismo concept eventually became the AMG GT S...

Honolulu Hop On Hop Off Trolley Excursion Reviews
The Hop On Hop Off Trolley is a quick and easy way to move around Waikiki and explore freely.

Mar 2014
If Hilo was a disorganised underwhelming disappointment, this place could not possibly be more different. Well organised. Professional, helpful people and a brilliant sight seeing tour on the hop on hop off open bus. Excellent driver/tour guide. Really knew his stuff. Plenty to see and do. Great shopping as well. Highly recommend. Would love to go back.

I use Gray Line's hop-on/off service just about everywhere I go. They always do a great job. It's economical (especially if you buy through Groupon like I did for this trip) and it's convenient. The bus stopped right in front of my hotel. We made stops at all of the interesting places in Honolulu, and also toured around Diamond Head. The people who worked the buses, especially the wonderful Auntie who sold tickets in front of the Duke statue, were all really friendly and knowledgable. Highly recommended.Read SpendingTheirInheritance's full Pride of America cruise review

We were in Honolulu overnight. The trolley fare was $34 each and that gave us full access to all three of their lines for the two days. It was so simple to hop on right at the pier and go where ever we wanted. They don't mention that they make special stops when the ships are in port at the piers but they do. We were so pleased that we did this and the staff and drivers of the Hop On Hop Off Trolley company are unbelievable. They are hilarious, pleasant, knowledgeable, friendly and from what we could see bilingual in Japanese and English. It made all the tours so interesting.Read 332266's full Zaandam cruise review

The Hop-on-Hop-Off Trolley was a nice way to view Waikiki, but it took us a while to find it. The ship's excursion desk had no information about where to locate them on the pier, and there was nothing printed on the excursion ticket. It would be nice if the Trolley ran later, with the longer days -- they only run until shortly after 5pm. As it was, we barely had time to see Diamond Head, and make the last trolley connection back to the ship.Read wwcruisers's full Celebrity Century cruise review

MEDFORD, Ore. -- Desiree Young is a mother who wishes she could have taken a photo of her 10-year-old son.
Instead, she gets to look at a computer-generated one.
On Monday, a local trucking company is revealing Kyron Horman's new age-progression photo to show what he would look like at the age of 10. The image was created by the National Center of Missing and Exploited Children at the two-year mark of Kyron's disappearance.
The poster will get added publicity by being displayed on the Gordon Trucking fleet of trucks in Washington and Oregon.
"I'm still thinking of Kyron as a little boy and know everyone else still thinks that way of him as 7 so I think to have a photo out there will help us to be able to identify him easier," said Desiree Young, Kryon's mother.
It's been nearly three years since Kyron Horman disappeared from a Portland school where his stepmother, Terri Horman, says she dropped him off.
Family and friends are still holding out hope for the boy to come home.
Young wrote her son Kyron a letter just a few days ago and one of the things she remembers most is his smile.
"You have always been able to bring me joy joy looking up and smiling, oh how I miss seeing that smile every day," she said.
Young said she and the rest of Kyron's family will never give up hope in seeing his smile again someday.
