Farely Mowat's best loved book tells the splendidly entertaining story of his boyhood on the Canadian prairies. Mutt's pedigree was uncertain, but his madness was indisputable. He climbed tress and ladders, rode passenger in an open car wearing goggles and displaying hunting skills that bordered on sheer genius. He was a marvelous dog, worthy of an unusual boy growing up a raw, untamed wilderness.

As you make yourself comfortable in your seat and start to flip through the pages of the Ndege News magazine, this may well be the start of your safari or perhaps the beginning of your business trip in East Africa on board one of our group Airlines operating in Uganda, Kenya or Tanzania. This magazine will highlight some of the many unique features that this region has to offer. I hope that you will find these articles and pictures informative and pleasant to read.
I have had the privilege of living in Kenya for many years, and for most of them I have been flying in Africa to major hubs and bush airstrips, meeting people, learning new cultures, admiring landscapes, enjoying the African skies. I consider myself very lucky that to date I am still able to do all that. So I am confident to say that wherever we fly you today it will undoubtedly be a wonderful experience, one you may remember for years to come!
We always try to make your journey as pleasant as possible and strive to give you the best and safest service. Our crews are well experienced and very familiar with the areas we fly you to: many times when hopping from one destination to another we fly low, an excellent opportunity to enjoy the view below, many things to discover, and it may well be your first game drive with an aerial view! In July this year, Airkenya Express launched a refurbished departure lounge. To date we have received many positive comments about it. With a new-look Dormans coffee shop, free wifi, improved check in and security procedures, and a pleasant atmosphere, we aim to give our customers a good start to their journey.
Airkenya's Tanzanian subsidiary, Regional Air Services (RAS), plans to open a new hub in Zanzibar effective from June 2015. Great news for tourism in Tanzania: passengers flying with RAS will be able to fly from Zanzibar and Dar es Salaam, with morning and afternoon scheduled flights to the Selous Game Reserve just south-west of Dar. They will also be able to connect from the Serengeti National Park to the Selous via Zanzibar, a long journey, now possible in one day and an ideal solution to maximize on your holiday time.
AeroLink, Airkenya's Ugandan subsidiary, is continuing to make an impact in the Ugandan tourist circles, offering convenient scheduled flights to the Ugandan national parks, allowing AeroLink's customers to avoid the long road journeys to these far destinations and letting them arrive relaxed and full of energy, ready to start their walking safari to view the Gorillas in their beautiful natural habitat.
It is my pleasure to have you on board today and I sincerely hope that we will be able to do our part in making your holiday a wonderful experience. I also take this opportunity to wish you all the very best for the oncoming festivities and a great start to the New Year.
Thank you for flying with us,
Capt. Dino Bisleti
General Manager

You'll never find a happier person than Rose. A single mom living among the worst killers, thieves, and drug addicts in the city, she's never had a down thought cross her mind. Not until her least favorite person hooked up with a boy she was more than sweet on. The day Rose saw Beth and Orson together something broke inside her, and now this air-headed, happy-go-lucky, highly promiscuous, fake-blonde is out for blood—and she doesn't care whose or how much is spilt. Can this buxom bombshell's heart be "fixed" before she blows up Baltimore and ruins Orson and Beth's own revenge plans, or will the next bouquet of flowers she gets be the ones on her grave?

STRAY BULLETS CONTINUES WITH THE BEGINNING OF A BRAND-NEW ARC OF STORIES! SUNSHINE AND ROSES is about violence, love, and really bad decisions. The Baltimore underworld is falling apart at the seams and blood has been spilt. Where and when things went to hell in a handbasket can be traced back to a time a few years earlier, when a man named Harry ran the city, Spanish Scott and Monster enforced the rules, and an insecure young man named Orson met a wild and crazy girl named Beth. The two together cooked up the boldest, most outlandish, and just about the stupidest plan ever devised—a plan to steal a whole lot of Harry's money and drugs and get a little revenge along the way. While every issue of STRAY BULLETS presents a complete story, the start of each new arc is the perfect place to jump on board and see what everybody else is talking about.

»Corky's Barbecue
This exceptionally popular restaurant with a pleasant, cabin-like dining room has been featured in publications such as Bon Appetit, USA Today and The New York Times. The best choice on the menu is the pork shoulder sandwich. A barbecue sandwich in Memphis means dark, chewy shreds of meat that have been smoked for hours, layed out on a bun and topped with cole slaw and a spicy sauce. You can buy the barbecue in packs with all the fixings. Cold beer, on tap or by the bottle, is the drink of choice.
»Rock'n Dough Pizza Co.

As for the food, the mussels in broth make an outstanding appetizer or whole meal. Pasta portions are huge, so you can take the leftovers home for lunch the next day.

Reservations are recommended on the weekends at this popular eatery.
»Hog & Hominy
Hog & Hominy was lauded as one of the top five newly opened restaurants when it was launched. This place is family-owned and it shows. The service is quite good and the food served is Italian cuisine with a Southern twang. The most famous dishes on their menu are the duck sausages and the bourbon pecan curd pie. There is also a bocce court for patrons to enjoy. They only reserve half their tables and leave the rest for walk-ins, so if you feel like going out for a family dinner or enjoying a wholesome meal with friends, this is the place to head to.
»Houston's Restaurant
This always-popular restaurant has a lot to offer—pleasant atmosphere, good service and plenty of old favorites on the menu. Popular items include the hot artichoke dip and the baby back ribs. The grilled fish with rice or baked potato and salad is a well-executed standard. The hamburgers are large and luscious, and the homemade soups and salads make great lunches or starters. Houston's demonstrates what fern bar decor should be—comfortable, attractive tables and banquets, good lighting, and enough plants to add life and soften the edges. The atmosphere and the fast, pleasant service are just right for office workers out for lunch and friends meeting for dinner before the movie.
»Bravo Ristorante
This restaurant draws diners from across Memphis, who come both for the food and to hear the singing servers. Performing Broadway or light opera tunes, the servers entertain you while bringing your food in the softly lit dining rooms. Italian and Mediterranean fare are the evening specialties, while American-style breakfast and lunch menus start the day. From Monday through Friday, a lunch buffet features Southern-style cooking and an impressive brunch is served on Sunday. The restaurant overlooks the hotel's reflecting pond, making for a pleasant dining experience.
»Belmont Grill
A cool, dark stop on a hot Memphis day, this place is a regular East Memphis haunt. During the Great Depression, turnip green sandwiches were sold at this location, but the fare has improved greatly since then. The burgers are a cut above the usual and the aroma of char grilled burgers fills the air. This place is also known for sandwiches, such as the catfish steak and the po' boy. Follow up your meal with some key lime pie. The servers here will make you feel like a regular.

North Hardin boys' soccer coach Jim Stone came into the preseason with worries about how the team would play without Tyler Blankenship, who scored 60 percent of the team's goals in his senior season.
It didn't take long for the Trojans to put their coach's mind at ease.
The composite schedule for the Central Hardin, Elizabethtown, Fort Knox, John Hardin, LaRue County, Meade County, North Hardin and North Hardin Christian boys' soccer teams:
Frankfort Christian at NH Christian 5:30 p.m.
LaRue County at North Bullitt 5:30 p.m.
Meade County at Grayson County 6:30 p.m.
Bullitt East at North Hardin 7 p.m.
Fort Knox at Elizabethtown 7 p.m.
South Warren at John Hardin 8 p.m.
The News-Enterprise Senior setter Molly Kennedy had 14 of LaRue County's 21 aces as the visiting Lady Hawks rolled to their third consecutive win with a 25-11, 25-14 victory over 18th District rival Caverna on Thursday. Kennedy also had six assists and two kills for LaRue County (3-0 overall, 1-0 district), while sophomore outside hitter Kara Paden had four aces and t
The North Hardin Lady Trojans can see the light on the horizon.
After a tough rebuilding year, in which they went 2-14-1, the Lady Trojans are beginning to see the fruits of their labors as they enter this season with high spirits and expectations.

The Central Hardin Bruins have been slowly building the program back up to the level it needed to be since Mike Wiersema took over three years ago.
After a 10-4-4 record last year and a successful preseason, one might think the Bruins would be giddy with anticipation of the upcoming season. But Wiersema is quick to point out a good week at camp and the Bluegrass State Games doesn't mean much.

The Elizabethtown Lady Panthers are after a decade of dominance.
The Lady Panthers went 15-8-2 last year in their first season under coach Jerry Crabtree and lost to Louisville DuPont Manual in the first round of the state tournament.
With nine starters and 11 reserves back from that squad, the Lady Panthers are heavy favorites to win their ninth straight 10th District Tournament championship and their 10th consecutive 5th Region Tournament title.
After four consecutive 5th Region Tournament runner-up finishes, the Elizabethtown Panthers finally broke through last season by making it to the state tournament for the first time since the early 1990s.
Never mind it took the Panthers a 10-member senior class to get it done and three of those graduates are now playing in college.
John Hardin coach Alex Shearer has been through this scenario before, and each time the Bulldogs emerged stronger from it.
The Bulldogs are coming off a 12-6-2 season, but they graduated 17 seniors. It seems like it would be a rebuilding year, but that's not the way Shearer and the Bulldogs are approaching it.
The News-Enterprise It was a long two days for the Central Hardin Lady Bruins and coach Wendy Boeglen, but the trip to Owensboro was well worth it. The Lady Bruins went 7-0 to win the two-day, 25-team Apollo Summer Slam on Friday and Saturday. Central Hardin defeated Franklin-Simpson (25-10, 25-9), Daviess County (25-18, 25-10), Marshall County (25-16, 25-19) and Union Cou

1059 Tasting Notes
My new Butiki teas arrived! I've been quivering with excitement ever since, and waiting till this morning to try them :D
I brewed a cup of this, and patiently waited for it to cool down a bit before tasting it. Whoa, the white tea really does have a champagne characteristic about it! It is sweet with a delicate faint hay like flavor. The rose is not at all obnoxious like some rose flavors can be, and the cream! OH THE CREAM! This tea is super creamy. I really want to figure out a way to make this flavor into some kind of mousse dessert. Can you imagine a champagne and rose cream mousse? OMG! I've got some rosewater in the cabinet…maybe some day I'll have time to experiment :)
I'll be hanging out with my new friend Sheng for the rest of the afternoon. We'll be whispering and telling secrets in the corner and pretty much ignoring everyone else…don't mind us! ;)
Seriously though, now I want to try more sheng pu-erhs darnit! I already have too many teas on my "want" list :/
Yep… just how it started out for me all those years ago. So happy you are enjoying this tea! I think I already shared with you that I'm a little obsessed with this one currently.
I can also recommend a 2007 purple leaf cake that we have from Haiwan. Very nice, it sells very well here and many repeat buys. Also Gifting Raw, 2007. Only 4 or 5 of those left.
Will have 4 or 5 new sheng pressings made in the next month or so for us. All material is super cleanly grown and we had it tested for sprays/chemicals and it all came through with flying colours! Expensive to test, but gives us peace of mind for us and for our customers/friends (one and the same, really) – so very worth it.
These cakes are a dangerous thing for me. Tea that is OK even encouraged to hoard because it gets even better with time! Thank you so much for the recommendations, I'll definitely be putting a few on my Christmas list, and I LOVE that you test for chemicals!
Do please post on your Facebook or here on Steepster if you start to get low on the Wild Monk cake. I will need at least one more I think! :)
We are doing pretty well with our stash of the Wild Monk. I had alot of them pressed and just secured a whole bunch more of the mao cha to sell as loose leaf. The new mao cha will be 2013, though, and not 2012 because I bought all of that from the producer last year. Next year, will likely do another pressing of their mao cha. We'll see what the tea names itself this next time :)
Here's Hoping Traveling Tea Box
When I saw this in the traveling tea box, I had to try it! Artichoke? So weird!
I'm not sure if this suffered from tea box contamination, but I'm getting some citrus flavor from it. Also butter greens, but no distinct vegetable or artichoke flavor is detectable. Pretty tasty, but probably not how it is really supposed to taste? Some other reviewers of this tea did mention a vinegary or meyer lemony taste, so MAYBE its really supposed to taste this way. Anyway, I like it! It is weird :)
Yay my first Sheng! I'm really glad I ended up liking this cute little cake. The first few steeps were very smokey and woodsy, but still somewhat light tasting compared with shu. The later steeps became less smokey and started to have this CRAZY sweet dried apricot aftertaste that lasts for several minutes after each sip! I get a flavor similar to this from certain oolongs. Anyway, there is also a difficult to describe creamy or nutty element. I look forward to exploring this tea further :)
Mmmmmm Special Dark! I love this tea! I got it in the mail yesterday evening along with my first cake of sheng, which I am really excited to try, but this tea was the one I decided I HAD to have this morning. I prefer to drink it extra strong. I steep 1 tablespoon for a couple of minutes. OH YEAH dark and rich! Like creamy unsweetened cocoa powder but with absolutely no bitterness.
Oh goodie! P.s. you have something heading your way on Monday :) since you couldnt be in the first round of secret pumpkin.
Here's Hoping Traveling Tea Box
I've never actually bought anything from Lupicia, but I've had the pleasure of sampling quite a few in Steepster swaps. I am really impressed with their fruity teas! I am drinking this hot, but it would be hella good iced in the summertime :) YUM!

what kind of Gourami have I been given?
Hi, I have been given asked to give a Gourami (and a couple of other orphans which I know the names of) a good home along with my other tropicals. It's grown a lot since being in a larger tank and is around 8cms long. The other elongated ray/fin is there, it's just tucked out of sight...I need to know more about it so can you ID it for me please.....thanks.
Looks like a blue gourami...
Thanks, being relatively new to trops, I was a bit confused as to if it was a Blue (aka 3 Spot or Opaline) as there doesn't appear to be two distinct spots....although the caudal spot is sort of there. Guess it's just not a very good example?
That is very definitley an Opaline Gourami and it appears to be an egg-laden female. In one old book it is also called a Cosby Gourami. Its scientific name is Trichogaster trichopterus, which is also the same scientific names of the blue, gold, butterfly, etc... - just one of the strains thereof. Easy to breed!
Petiolaris, hello. Interesting as it's the only Gourami my neighbour has ever had and I don't have another either!! Between us we have had 'it' for over 12 months. I was going to ask for an opinion as to it's sex. Must admit I thought 'it' was a male as the dorsal fin extends to the beginning of the caudal fin. On all the pics of the females have found their dorsal to end much shorter than this. Possibly the light bouncing back off the pectoral area gives a false impression of a plump egg laden female?
I am NO expert believe me, so I am open to all opinions, and stand to be corrected! What does anyone else think?
Thanks in advance, Gill.
I do think it's the flash that makes it look fat, as head-on he is relatively slim. Admittedly he does have a good appetite and is first in the queue for flakes or mashed peas! Have thought about getting a partner, that's why my initial enquiry was to try and determine 'its' type and sex. Have read up on breeding them on-line and it does seem easy enough...and tempting as I have never bred a bubble nester before.

Painting quote-does this seem high?
We bought a 'new' house and just got an estimate from a highly recommended painter in our area. A little background on our house and the
-Built in 1920s
-2 sets of french doors
-3000 sq ft
-lots of chair rail molding and dental crown moldings
-intricate stair railing
-walls and moldings needs lot of prep due to cracks, dents etc
-entire house to be painting: walls, moldings, wood windows, trim, closets, stairs, railing and 3 bathrooms
Quote was 12,000 no materials included.
Does this sound like a fair price?
This is helpful to me, as we are under contract on a "new" house and we will be painting the entire interior as you are. I have spoken to friends that have had painting done to get an idea of what to expect. I was thinking it would be about $15k, including materials. One friend, with a similar space to yours, paid over $20k. Maybe her work was more intricate in nature? Another friend said $12k. Not sure if that included materials.
So, it probably depends on what area you are in. My quotes are for the NYC area.
Good luck!

hostas on vancouver island
I am considering moving myself and my hostas from Quebec to somewhere on Vancouver Island. I would appreciate any info on hosta growing there... and perhaps the best part of the island for hostas. Thanks so much.
Hostas grow like weeds pretty much anywhere in the Pacific Northwest......if you can keep the deer and slugs away from them :-) There shouldn't be any issues (other than those 2 already mentioned) growing them anywhere you like on Vancouver Island. FWIW, many hostas can be grown in full sun here without problems - we are far enough north that the sun even in summer is not very intense.
It's just as Garden gal said Hosta's thrive here. The only problems are deer, slugs and unfortunately I have to add snails to that list. I think you could choose anywhere on the island for Hostas.
If you are interested in growing some of the more tender plants the closer to Victoria the better. They grow plants on the south end of the island that I can't grow here in Nanaimo.

No apples this year
My dwarf apple tree is 3-4 years old I was hoping to get some fruit this year after seeing some blooms early on but nothing good has happened since. I've got 4-5 branch tips that dying off 6-8 inches down the tips, leaves are getting yellow spots that I'm attributing to cedar spot but have not had a problem with the branches dying off until this year. What is the best thing to do about the dying branches and cedar spot?
If your branches are dying you have a serious problem with your tree. Perhaps you should research fireblight and see if that is what your trees have. Perhaps something has girdled your tree or eaten the roots underground. Voles do this. As for the cedar apple rust, there is a product called immunox which does a great job of dealing with this fungus. Hope this helps. I can relate to your disappointment. Ted

Garden art in shop
laurastheme(8)August 25, 2010
I have a friend who owns an antique shop here in town. She has a large space for new rustic garden stuff. She asked me to bring some of my garden art there to sell on consignment. I took 5 pieces in a few days ago. Haven't checked to see if any of them have sold. The owner and all the clerks had wonderful words to say about them. Hope the customers like them well enough to buy.

Institute of Cultural Inquiry
An independent research and exhibition center with its own small but salient publishing arm, the Institute of Cultural Inquiry lives up to the lofty and slightly Poindexter promise of its name, using a variety of approaches to articulating how technology is affecting our collective experience of artistic, social and political culture. At times the ICI's projects are traditionally formatted gallery installations at its Mid-City location, and these often involve workshops and other public-engagement aspects. Certain projects exist entirely online. In principle, ICI is open to suggestions from artists and arts groups wishing to present their own ideas. Since opening its practice in 1990, ICI has cultivated an open-minded and offbeat program that doesn't just use the spaces it occupies to explore cultural paradigms in themselves, but to more deeply examine the very mechanisms, aesthetic and documentation strategies, and premises that shape those explorations themselves. All of this far-ranging activity takes place during gallery hours most of the time, but as ICI frequently conducts field research and/or checks in with its European outposts, you'll want to call to, um, inquire. 1512 S. Robertson Blvd., Mid-City. (310) 273-7181; culturalinquiry.org.

I'm easy-going, non-judgemental, and love to laugh. I enjoy traveling and volunteering. A few years ago I went down to Honduras and Ecuador on a medical brigade/clinic so that we could treat these patients who would otherwise not receive any medical care. The experience was incredible and sparked subsequent trips to Central and South America. I love to eat out and be the first to try the newest restaurant in the city. Depending on the night I could I go for the miso cod with a glass of red as much as I could devour a turkey burger with a pint of Guinness. My family is fanstastic and we have a great time when we're all together. I'm the oldest so I guess I'm pretty responsible and somewhat of a planner. I treasure the relationship I have with my friends and am really good about keeping in touch even if its only a long phone call every few months. While there really is no perfect match... in a perfect world he would be a good listener but offer the best advice, love to travel, have a hobby, enjoy watching tennis and U of M football, have a great smile, and maybe even enjoy doing some highbrow things together.
