GREAT WESTERN CHEMICAL Co. June 17, 1993 Governor Cecil Andrus statehouse Boise, ID 83720 Dear Governor Andrus: 1717 EAST FARGO NAMPA, IDAHO 83687 (208) 466-8437 ~~~~~WIE~ JUN 181993 1r¥' Of' tea OF GICJIII&Rf'IOft I am very concerned for the welfare and future of the stibnite Mining operation located 65 miles east of cascade, Idaho, in Valley County. The present road use plan, submitted to the Stibnite Mine, doesn't allow for proper road use to cover the transportation of products into the mine, which would allow this operation to operate at a normal schedule for a 5 month period. The plan is attached: The plan states in Par. 1 that only 4 T/L of hazardous material can be transported per week at a gross weight of 25,000/lb. This would equal 25/ton per week including the weight of the vehicle which the product is transported in. This is an unreasonable amount to consider for this type of operation. This operation employs 130 people at the mine, with many other businesses on the outside in support. The operation at Stibnite is too valuable and important an economic factor for Valley County and the surrounding area to be shut down. Closing an operation of this kind, would have a considerable impact. The ripple effect would be far reaching. This looks like a government out of control. Your valuable input would be appreciated. sincerely, 13~ ~'() Bob Saunders Great Western Chemical co. BS:dc NORTH HOLLYWOOD, SANTA FE SPRINGS. BAKERSFIELD.

The cogeneration facility burns wood waste from the sawmill as its fuel source and creates an ash by-product in considerable quantity. TEP has, on several occasions, had the chemical composition of the ash by-product tested and it has been found to be environmentally benign. The news article on the Triumph mine points up an opportunity that should be considered. The ash is a very fine, somewhat granular substance with a very low Ph. It would serve very well as a "fill" or "cover" material at the Triumph mine site. The chemical and physical properties of the ash provide ideal cover and, in addition, the ash compacts very well. I can provide you with a good amount of research which supports these facts. TEP would be more than happy to provide this ash to state, federal, local, or private entities seeking fill material for the Triumph mine tailings problem or any other such reclamation or Governor Cecil D. Andrus Page 2 June 14, 1993 cleanup project. TEP currently has a substantial amount of ash which could be made available immediately. Please give me your thoughts on this proposal.

ANOI'I'US -·- OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR n .. no:.u.TOL BOISE 13'7l0 Prepared Remarks of Cecil D. Andrus Governor of Idaho before the Idaho Mining Association Biennial Convention Sun Valley Lodge Sun Valley, Idaho Auqust 18, 1989 For Delivery: 12:15 p.m. (MDT) (208J 334-2100 --1- Let~ begin this afternoon by saying, as directly and positively as I can, that I truly believe the future of the mining industry in Idaho is as promising today as it was in the 1860 1 s when gold was first discovered in Idaho territory. I want to talk some more about that in a moment. I also want to discuss the role your industry has played in a revitalization of the economy. And I want to give you a few of my thoughts on the current discussions in Washington, D.C. on the Mining Law of 1872. The Mining Industry in Idaho As you know we are nearing the Centennial of Idaho Statehood, and it seems to me altogether fitting that we should be celebrating a renewed strength and promise in the mining industry in Idaho. No industry in the 100 years of Idaho statehood has contributed more to the economy and development of Idaho. Your industry has continued to play a tremendous role in the decade of the 1990's and beyond. The mining industry has a firm place in the future of Idaho. I recognize that, you do, and so do the citizens of Idaho. Just look around the state at what is happening: the Thunder Mountain projectl the Cyprus operation at Challis; and Meridian Minerals has under development a tremendously importance project near Salmon. The fertilizer industry is doing well, and that means the phosphate mines are doing ~ --2-- well. And, of course, there are other projects on the drawing board. Frankly, as I survey the industry, I see only one bleak area and that is, of course, the price of silver. I know that I have a difference of opinion with some in this room about what should be done about that, but the fact remains that the price must be up around $7.50 an ounce in order for the industry to enjoy the stability we would like to see. I know that the argument is made that we operate in a world market where there is a world price for silver and that we can't, or shouldn't, do anything to try to bring that price up. I would remind you that we also have a world market for sugar, and wheat, and lots of other products, but that does not keep us from establishing mechanisms to help maintain the price of those commodities. All I have ever asked for is a level playing field that prevents third world countries, Peru and Mexico for example, from destroying a traditional and terribly important Idaho industry. Is there any doubt in anyone's mind that Peru and Mexico are subsidizing silver production in their countries? Well, fair is fair and, in my opinion, Idaho's silver industry and the jobs and economic impact it provides has the same right to --3-- survive. I hope and pray we will see some improvements in that area. But, with that one big qualifier, I have to repeat my belief that the industry is well positioned for the future in Idaho, and the future is as bright as it has been in many years. The Idaho Economy In fact, the entire Idaho economy is in increasingly good shape. Let me give you a short list of statistics that tell a pretty good story: --Since early 1987, a little over two and a half years, we have created more than 30,000 new jobs in Idaho. --The unemployment rate is down from more than 8 percent to just over 5 percent. --We have enj~yed, in the last 18 months, a one billion, SOD-million dollar increase in salaries and wages paid to Idaho workers. --During calendar 1988 we actually lead the nation in percentage increase in new manufacturing jobs. --we have enjoyed major new business expansion and start-ups in every corner of Idaho. Anheuser-Busch in Idaho Falls, TJ International in Twin Falls, Spears Manufacturing in Jerome, Micron in Boise, Omark in Lewiston, International Mill Service in Kootenai County, several new businesses in Sandpoint, and the list goes on and on. --4-- --we ended the fiscal year on June 30th well in the black, and, frankly, I see no reason why the economic strength should waver during 1990. --During the last legislative session we took further steps to improve the business climate by cutting unemployment taxes by $16 million this year, and $40 million next year. Also, last year, we returned more than $15 million in dividends to state insurance fund customers, and we are working right now to reduce, and if possible stop, an increase in the cost of private workman's camp coverage. All in all, it's a pretty good record. Don't get me wrong. I don't stand before you today to take all the credit for all of this, but I do believe I am entitled to some of the credit. Many people--and certainly people in this room and in your industry--helped bring about this economic turnaround. I don't take all the credit. No one person is going to do it all by themselves, but I'll take some of the credit for putting together a good team in state government, for building an effective Department of Commerce and for working every day to help get things turned around. I also tell you with no hesitation that we have more work to do. Rural Idaho still needs our attention. There are problems that remain to be solved, but I do think the successes of the last year are a testament to what can be done when Idaho people are working together, solving problems and putting the best interests of the state out in front. --s-- If ail this tells us nothing else, it should tell us that confrontational approaches to problems don't work. The sit down and work it out approach does work. Water Quality I am very aware that there has been a deep division in this group over the approach your leadership took in solving the long-running water quality hassle. I know that some of you remain skeptical about how well it will work. Let me say this. This process has brought your president to my office many times with the concerns of your industry. He and I have an agreement that when concerns arise we are going to talk them through. Your industry should have no concerns about being represented and being heard. You are being well represented, and you will be heard throughout this process. The industry will be treated fairly by this Administration. I think you will find if you ask some of the people from Cyprus, for example, that we have been willing to work through the bureaucratic ~red tape~ to see to it that their facility is helped and not hindered in its operations. We have rules and law, of course, but it's our job to work with you to meet the rules. And in the Andrus administration we don't believe in cutting ~red tapeR lengthwise. At the very least, out of this process you--the mining industry--were able to sit down with your alleged adversaries --6-- and work out an agreement that a majority of your membership can live with. In my opinion, that was a significant accomplishment that ~ can take credit for. 1872 Mining Law Now, as I indicated a few minutes ago, I can't come before this distinguished audience without addressing, at least briefly, the repeal, re-write or replacement of the Mining Law of 1872. I have reviewed Senator Bumpers' bill, and I have one piece of advice for you. If you, and the industry, adopt an attitude of blind opposition to any change I am afraid you will loose. My advice is to recognize that reality and become a participant in shaping a law you can live with. You have a choice, it seems to me, of having the law changed with you or without you. There is widespread agreement, in my opinion, about at least a couple of provisions needing a re-write. One is the royalty issue. Right now the cowboys are paying for the right to graze on the public domain. Oil and qas interests are paying. Those who are extracting uranium and coal are paying a royalty, and the Congress and the public frankly expects that a royalty will be paid for other minerals as well. That does not have to mean the end of the industry. .I can't tell you today what the right figure is, perhaps coal --7-- gives us a guide. But the fact is, some changes are going to be made. I am committed to the position that miners ought to have the right to explore for minerals on all public lands that are available for mineral entry. And that miners should have the right to extract minerals under a guaranteed lease arrangement. But I also know that there have been some abuses in the transferring of title to some ground where frankly extraction of minerals was not really the purpose of the lease, There is a current case in the Dunes National Recreation Area where a lease application was made under the 1872 law. The mineral involved is sand, and it appears to some that the real purpose behind the lease is to offer up homesites. The public expects those types of abuses to be addressed, The industry has every right to use the land for locating and extracting minerals, but not for building condos, apartments, bordellos and gambling casinos. I am fully aware that some of you believe that once that law is opened up it could create a great opportunity for mischief that will do real damage to the industry, damage that goes beyond the kind of legitimate concerns I have mentioned. I do fear that if you plant both feet and say ftNo• to any changes, it will spawn a harsh reaction to your stance and you may, in fact, face outright repeal. I offer whatever assistance I can give in this area. I have already tried to make it clear that Idaho 1 s interests are --8-- interwoven with the interests of the industry. We are all citizens of the same state. We have shown that we can work together, and I stand ready today, and every day, to keep that solid relationship in place. --the end-- '. Dear Governor Andrus, lfYU(l '-' ' , .. -~ - ' ' -'~' About four years ago I wrote you a letter pertaining to some dubious logging practices and was grateful for your response. Since then, two things have surfaced that I'd like to comment on. I am hopeful governor that you will be concerned enough to look into them. The first occurs in southeast Idaho where minin~ is a large part of the economy. In the Caribou National Forest were we have elk hunted for five years, mining has taken a toll on the land. I don't begrudge people making a living but must it be at the expense of our national forest. We've watched huge chunks of prime habitat turned into nothing but piles of dirt. Reclamation of this land consists of planting grass. What was once a large stand of aspen, fir, or sagebrush has now been "reclaimed". Reclaimed for what? The forest that was once there is gone. In some places no attempt is even made to reseed. Why aren't these mining companies required to restore the land to what it was, or at least close?. The forests belong to everyone. Why are we letting a handful of companies do irreparable damage to them in the name of jobs or the economy? Requirements for reforestation are in place for the logging industry. Why isn't the mining industry subject to the same rules? One specific area is called Dry Valley. It's located twenty miles northeast of Soda springs. It is significant elk calving area but two different companies have mining rights there. Yes, elk numbers will be affected. They already have been. Idaho Fish & Game seems either uninterested or powerless to do anything. However, Fish & Game is concerned about funding. I'm referring to the tremendous increase in nonresident hunting license fees. Wow when you people propose an increase you don't mess around! In the newspaper article I read an official said he felt the market would bare the increase. The market he refers to must be the people with lots of extra cash around. I've paid 463.00 for deer and elk tags this year. If the current proposal is approved that figure will jump to 650.00. I'm a state worker with a family making thirty thousand a year. With everything on the rise except salaries it's tough to justify that kind of money. Instead of pricing the average person out of hunting, legislators should look to a wider base of funding for fish and game. It's such an important economic resource for all of Idaho yet only sportsmen are expected to shoulder all the costs to support it. Please let me know your feelings on these issues and if I can do anything about them. Sincerely, Jim Ebel 390 N. Hofstetter Colville, Wa. 99114 TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: MEMORANDUM Keith Higginson.~ Wayne T. Haas$~ March 9, 1993 Cascade/Deadwood Storage Negotiations with USBR The purpose of the memorandum is to summarize some of the key points addressed in the draft contract with the Bureau of Reclamation. Cost of Storage - Draft Contract The cost of Cascade storage is $11.218 per acre feet. The total investment cost for cascade is 300,000 acre feet x $11.218 = $3,365,400. The cost of Deadwood storage is $9.309 per acre feet. The total investment cost for Deadwood is 80,000 acre feet x $9.309 = $744,720. The total contract cost is $3,365,400 + $744,720 = $4,110,120 Cost of Storage - Proposed by USBR. Washington D.C. The staff of USBR in Washington D.C. originally proposed that the allocated cost be indexed at 3 percent from the date of construction to present. This would increase the investment cost of Cascade to $12.4 million and Deadwood to $4.5 million for a total cost to the state of $16.9 million. Annual Operation and Maintenance Costs The draft contract would provide that the state would pay a percentage of the total operation and maintenance costs for the two projects. At the present time, the state's allocated percentage would be 11.8 at Cascade for a cost of $26,450 and 10.82 at Deadwood for a cost of $26,800. The 1993 O&M cost to the state would have been $53,250. The following annual O&M costs were provided by the USBR: (Federal Fiscal Year) ~ 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 (est) cascade $ 60,893 76,256 79,701 119,161 165,807 316,352 224,200 Deadwood $ 51,168 39,778 49,493 80,944 110,249 138,186 247,700 State Share $12,721 13,302 14,760 22,819 31,494 46,587 53,250 The O&M costs have taken a jump to over $50,000. Since the primary benefits are for resident fish & wildlife, recreation, and water quality, some consideration could be given to assigning some portion of the cost to the Fish & Game fee account. Benefits to Other Parties The original authorization/appropriation to the IWRB provided for the possibility of assigning some portion of the cost to other parties that would benefit from maintaining the water level at Cascade and Deadwood. At the time this was assumed to be the recreational development (Valbois) at Cascade. It would appear that Idaho Power Company has and will continue to receive a direct benefit from the contract. The headwater benefits calculation by FERC attributed considerable benefits to the Cascade and Deadwood Projects. The FERC study indicates Energy Gains of 13,820 Mwh for Cascade and 20,327 Mwh for Deadwood. If the contract avoided further consumptive use (there are requests for additional irrigation contracts), each acre foot available to pass through the Hells Canyon complex would provide revenue to the company. The Idaho Power Company has taken the position the contract would have little if any direct value to the company. They state this conclusion is based on Model Studies they have made. An independent analysis could be made by a consultant to evaluate the assumptions and results of the Idaho Power Company Model Studies and the information used by the department. The money for this type of study is not available in the department budget. Perhaps the study cost could be taken from the $3 million already appropriated for the cascade/Deadwood storage negotiations. OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR CECIL D. ANDRUS GOVERNOR Joseph A. Scheuering STATE CAPITOL BOISE 63720-1000 February 8, 1993 General Manager, Development Noranda Minerals Corp. 2501 Catlin, Suite 201 Missoula, Montana 59801 Dear Mr. Scheuering: (208) 334·21 00 I write to draw attention to a problem at the Blackbird Mine Site that must be immediately resolved. The problem centers upon the West Fork Tailings Dam and the presence of extremely high concentrations of hazardous substances in the front of and within the tailings dam. Over the past twelve years, everyone who has examined the dam, including your own contractors, has raised concerns about the potential collapse of the West Fork Tailings Dam. In 1981, ESA Geotechnical Consultants reported to the U.S. Forest Service that there may be a significant problem with the culvert that passes beneath the tailings dam. In 1984, a U.S. Forest Service study likewise questioned the integrity of the culvert that passes beneath the tailings dam. The reports reveal that the culvert is designed to contain only a fourteen-year flood event. For at least the past five years, snowpack at the site has been substantially below normal; this year's snowpack, however, is at or above normal. A potential, thus, currently exists for a fourteen-year flood event. If runoffs exceed capacity, water could run over the top of the dam like a giant weir. Water would then erode the downstream side of the earthen dam, leading to collapse. Another concern is whether the culvert can handle pressurized flows. If the flows become pressurized by water pending above the inlet, leaks around the culvert's joints could cause seeps through the dam. Internal erosion of this type has caused catastrophic collapses of older earthen dams like the West Fork Tailings Dam. In 1988, Morrison-Knudsen Engineers concluded that the dam may be too steep and that a more stable slope configuration is advisable. Concerns also were expressed about the stability of the dam in the event of an earthquake. The presence of geologic faults in the valley where the dam is located underscore this concern. In September of 1988, the state requested that the Noranda Companies take appropriate measures to address the condition of the West Fork Tailings Dam. Nothing apparently was done. Throughout Joseph A. Scheuering February 8, 1993 Page 2 1992, in several meetings with representatives of your company, the state has again requested that the Noranda Companies take appropriate measures to address the dam's condition. No action of any substance apparently has been taken. Inaction cannot be countenanced any more. The West Fork Tailings Dam impounds about 2,000,000 tons of tailings from the mine's milling operations. In October of 1992, a consultant to the state of Idaho was at the site and took samples from tailings that had just been dumped at the base of the dam. The consultant's analysis of those samples, which was just recently completed and provided to your company, reveals extremely elevated concentrations of hazardous substances, including 12,100 mg/kg arsenic, 5,060 mg/kg cobalt, 17,200 mg/kg copper, and 298 mg/kg zinc. Site-wide, the average concentration of arsenic is approximately 3,500 mg/kg. For comparative purposes, a recent emergency action performed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency involved relocating the town of Mill Creek, Montana because of risks posed by concentrations of arsenic (and, to a lesser extent, cadmium) in soils that contained an average of 612 mg/kg of arsenic, with a maximum reported value of 4,080 mg/kg. The disclosure of the alarmingly high concentrations of hazardous substances, coupled with the dam's uncertain condition, poses an imminent and substantial threat to the environment. If the dam or its culvert fails, large quantities of hazardous substances will be released into tributaries of and will ultimately reach the Salmon River. It would be a catastrophe for Idaho's River of No Return. Please let me know what measures the Noranda Companies will take to address the dam's condition and to mitigate the presence of the extremely high concentrations of hazardous substances in the tailings that the dam impounds. Due to the immediacy of the problem, I request an answer within fourteen (14) days. Also, be advised that we have requested EPA to take emergency action under Section 106 of CERCLA if you fail to act. I look forward to hearing from you. CDA:abf cc: John White Sincerely, ~oc:R~.

Boise, ID 83720
Dear Governor Andrus:
Of' tea OF GICJIII&Rf'IOft
I am very concerned for the welfare and future of the stibnite
Mining operation located 65 miles east of cascade, Idaho, in Valley
The present road use plan, submitted to the Stibnite Mine, doesn't
allow for proper road use to cover the transportation of products
into the mine, which would allow this operation to operate at a
normal schedule for a 5 month period.
The plan is attached:
The plan states in Par. 1 that only 4 T/L of hazardous material can
be transported per week at a gross weight of 25,000/lb. This would
equal 25/ton per week including the weight of the vehicle which the
product is transported in.
This is an unreasonable amount to consider for this type of
This operation employs 130 people at the mine, with many other
businesses on the outside in support.
The operation at Stibnite is too valuable and important an economic
factor for Valley County and the surrounding area to be shut down.
Closing an operation of this kind, would have a considerable
impact. The ripple effect would be far reaching. This looks like
a government out of control.
Your valuable input would be appreciated.

My prediction is LSU signs 6 players for 2013, likely 4 post players, a point guard and a wing. The extra scholarship will come from at least one player going pro, or transferring due to a lack of playing time. This list is based on various recruiting services and other sources and rumors I have heard. It is not definitive and will be changed numerous times over the next year. I welcome any news or comments that would be relative to this list. Commitments: 5 Deng Deng (PF, 6-8, 215) Lee College, Baytown, TX and Australia. Will have 3 years of eligibility at LSU. John Odoh (C, 6-10, 230) Hill College, TX. Former UNT signee with Johnny Jones. Will graduate from Hill in December and enroll at midterm. Will redshirt in the spring at LSU and have 2 years remaining to play. Jordan Mickey (PF, 6-7, 210) Prime Prep, Dallas, TX. 4-star recruit ranked No. 38 in the country. Ohio State, LSU, SMU and Oklahoma State have all offered and are his final 4. He is LSU wide receiver James Wright's brother. Tim Quarterman (Combo guard, 6-5, 180) Savannah, Ga. Johnson HS. 4-star multi-purpose player that can play multiple positions, from PG to SF. Ranked No. 62 overall in the Rivals 150. Has many offers and has not announced a final listing. Reportedly took an official visit to LSU on Sept. 16. Jarell Martin (PF, 6-9, 200) Madison Prep, Baton Rouge, 5-star forward ranked No. 10 in the country in the Rivals 150. No.11 ranked PF on Scout. Martin was somewhat of an unknown player that had a huge summer on the AAU circuit. Has offer from LSU. Also considering Oklahoma State, St. John's, UCLA, Alabama, Louisville and Texas A&M. Recruits Dylan Johns (Center, 7-1, 220) England. Played in a summer development program at the Trent Internationale School in Sugarland, TX, but was never a student there. Got some exposure with Trent playing in some summer events. Played on England's U18 national team. Has played on some Spanish club teams. Only played basketball for 4 years. Lots of upside. David Taylor (PG, 6-2) Germany: Son of former LSU star Derrick Taylor. Has the potential to be a high major recruit. Ranked as the No.13 player in Europe for the 2013 class by Eurohopes.com Read the following scouting report on him: Euro stars Keith Frazier (SG, 6-6, 192) Kimball H.S. Dallas; 5-star wing has a final list of LSU, Texas, Texas A&M, Memphis and SMU. Has taken no official visits and plans to be a spring signee. Brian Bridgewater (SF/PF, 6-6, 220) Scotlandville, Baton Rouge, 3-star forward but has dropped out of the Rivals 150. Ranked as a 4-star on Scout and is the No.17 PF. Brother of former LSU basketball player Brad Bridgewater. Has an LSU offer. Also has offers from Oklahoma State and Baylor. Also considering Kentucky, Georgetown, Alabama, Arizona, Marquette, Oklahoma and Purdue. Also has an offer to play WR/TE for LSU. Could be a big decision for him, choosing which sport to play in college. This post was edited on 11/2 at 3:08 pm Reply Back to Top |
Posted by LSUIEGRAD13 on 11/22 at 3:28 pm to Bubba Hotep I feel like the recruiting services get basketball correct much more than football. Probably because it is less players. I hope we can land a legit big man. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by ralsu on 11/22 at 3:33 pm to Bubba Hotep With a good 2011-12 season this could be a special class. Barber, Martin, Kingsley & Bridgewater Reply Back to Top |
Posted by Bubba Hotep on 11/22 at 3:36 pm to ralsu Perhaps it's just his philosophy, but Trent Johnson is very stingy with the offers. Even the higher level programs like North Carolina and Florida, seem to hand out scholarship offers like candy. Or it could be that many of those offers are not legit. Reply Back to Top |

Posted by Bubba Hotep on 11/22 at 5:47 pm to Geauxld Finger Bridgewater has A LOT of ground to make up if he wants to go to Arizona. Sean Miller is recruiting as good as anyone in the country right now. Unless he completely strikes out next year, 3-star recruits probably won't even get asked to visit.

Heatran also has four metal claws attached to its feet. It also has an iron mask and orange eyes. Heatran as well possesses gray and yellow spots all over its body along with a gray underside.
Special Abilities
Heatran has the ability Flash Fire and the Dream World ability Flame Body.

Buck will then take the stone and leave Stark Mountain, causing the mountain to begin to act up. After you talk to Buck in his house, he will return to the mountain go put the stone back. Go back to the top of Stark Mountain and Heatran will be there in the place of the Magma Stone. Heatran is encountered at level 70 Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl.
Pokemon Platinum
The story on how to obtain Heatran is relatively the same, however in Pokémon Platinum, for some reason, it is encountered at level 50.
Pokémon Black and White 2
Just like most of the other legendary Pokémon available for capture, Heatran is only able to be captured after the game is complete. But first, you must find the Magma Stone. It is located on Route 18, near the P2 Laboratory. You can also meet Crasher Wake along here, too. Anyway, the player can fly back to Lentimas Town, head to Reversal Mountain and capture Heatran. It is Level 67.

A Vermont man has pleaded guilty to persuading a 12-year-old girl to take nude photos of herself and send the images to his cell phone.
The U.S. Attorneys office says 26-year-old Richard Fletcher of Sheffield pleaded guilty to producing, receiving and possessing child pornography in federal court Wednesday.
Fletcher admitted that in 2011 he persuaded the girl in Utah to take the photos and send him the images.
Fletcher and the girl never met face-to-face. Prosecutors said he met her on a social media website, obtained her cell phone number, and began calling and texting her. They said he pressed for the photos after persuading the girl that he loved her and wanted her to be his girlfriend.
Fletcher is scheduled to be sentenced on April 22.

A landlocked country in the heart of West Africa, Burkina Faso is a gem for those seeking "authentic" Africa. Mass tourism has had little impact here, and old traditions continue to linger. The isolated Dogon culture can be found in the northeast, while in the south, the ruins of Loropéni will delight even the most seasoned traveller.

Ouagadougou is the capital of Burkina Faso and the administrative, cultural and economic center of the nation. It is generally known as the home to the Mossi, the largest ethnic group in the nation.

Review: Nemiroff Birch Special Vodka
Posted by Arctic Wolf on June 2, 2011
The Nemiroff Birch Special Vodka is one of the youngest of the Nemiroff flavours. It is advertised on the Nemiroff website as being built upon centuries-old traditions of Ukrainian 'horilka' distilling, and the use of high quality natural ingredients. Launched on the Ukrainian market in March, 2005, its recipe includes the light bitterness of birch buds, and the mellow flavour of the linden blossom. Some ingredients used in the blend to apparently trace back to the traditional Kievan Rus recipes of birch-bud-flavoured liquors.
Here is an excerpt from my review:
