VIERA, Fla. — Though Jesus Flores is making progress in his recovery from shoulder shoulder, the rehabbing catcher isn't progressing quickly enough to start playing in actual games.
Manager Jim Riggleman said today that Flores won't be cleared to play when the Nationals open their Grapefruit League slate Thursday.
"He won't be playing in the games early on," Riggleman said. "I'm not sure when we'll get him into games."
Flores, who had surgery in September to repair a torn labrum, has slowly been progressing in his throwing program. He's currently worked up to 90 feet, though he's still not allowed to throw the ball back to pitchers when catching bullpen sessions.
Veterans Ivan Rodriguez and Wil Nieves will get the bulk of the starts behind the plate during the early portion of the exhibition schedule. Prospect Derek Norris and veteran Jamie Burke will also get some playing time.

Mark,Can you get a picture of Guzman's feet? It is the only way to know if he is OK. He will not tell us and his range has never been good so how else will we know if he is OK?
- Positively Half St. - Feb 27, 2010 at 6:41 PM
Although they are just saying this now, they certainly seemed to be hinting at it pretty broadly before. I wonder which DL Flores will start the season on.
- Positively Half St. - Feb 27, 2010 at 6:43 PM
If anyone is going to display images of Guzman's feet, I'd like advanced notice so I can look away.Gak.

Hey Mark. I'm gonna say #33 for Frank Howard and #42 for Jackie Robinson.************************************************Mark Zuckerman said… Natsone_Va: Yes, Adam Kennedy is wearing No. 20 and is the first National since Frank Robinson to do so. The number was never officially retired by the club, but it was sort of held by clubhouse manager Mike Wallace out of respect for Frank. When Kennedy signed, he asked to wear No. 20. Wallace checked with the proper authorities to make sure it was OK, and he was given the green light. Trivia question: Do you know the only two numbers that haven't been worn by any Nat since they arrived in town (among the traditional baseball numbers, I mean, not like 93 or something ridiculous)? And what's the reason neither number has ever been given out?

"Walter Johnson High School in Bethesda, Maryland, (and is the only High School named for a Hall Of Fame player), has been named for him. The monument to him that once stood outside Griffith Stadium has been moved to the school's campus. The school's yearbook is called "The Windup" and the newspaper is called 'The Pitch.'"For Strasburg et al: they need this monument and that number in B-I-G HUGE letters … plus stats. Might help to keep everyone humble.I guess no one in baseball can use #44.
- peric - Feb 27, 2010 at 7:22 PM
Sorry I meant #44. Walther Johnson: (numbers on Jerseys started in 1931)JERSEY NUMBERS: #28 in 1931, #25 in 1932 (both as Senators Manager)STRENGTH: Speed – most estimates place his fast ball at 97-99 MPH (7-12 MPH faster than most other great pitchers of his time)
- peric - Feb 27, 2010 at 7:24 PM
I meant #42 … keep thinking Reggie Jackson … and his wonderful 1 year stint with the O-ri-ole's.
- peric - Feb 27, 2010 at 7:35 PM
Numbers below 60 that have never been used looks like #33, Howard's old number, the other has to be #42 for Jackie Robinson. They should consider retiring #28 and #25 to honor the very best player in DC baseball history.
- TBC - Feb 27, 2010 at 7:38 PM
Trivia question: Do you know the only two numbers that haven't been worn by any Nat since they arrived in town (among the traditional baseball numbers, I mean, not like 93 or something ridiculous)? And what's the reason neither number has ever been given out?In perusing the 2007 and 2008 media guides, the only numbers below 81 that were not worn during spring training by someone (aside of course from 42, which is retired across MLB) are 66 and 69. Why that would be, I have no idea.The Dawson/Raines Expo retired #10 has been worn by Ronnie Belliard and Brandon Harper. Gary Carter's 8 has been worn by Chris Snelling and Aaron Boone. Tim Raines' 30 has been worn by Justin Maxwell.Walter Johnson wore no number as a player. As a manager, he wore 25 (Austin Kearns) and 28 (1b coach Jerry Morales). Frank Howard's numbers 9 (Lenny Harris, Bernie Castro) and 33 (Larry Broadway) have also been worn. Although Broadway never played a regular season game, did he? So the answer to your question may be 33 and 42.
- peric - Feb 27, 2010 at 7:46 PM
Thanks TBC!
- Jimmy - Feb 27, 2010 at 7:47 PM
I don't understand why baseball won't retire #3 across the league. If it wasn't for the Babe (after the Black Sox scandal) no one would have a retired number. He's still the greatest to ever play the game. No one can claim 714 HRs and 96 wins as a pitcher.Washington be a leader and retire #3 for him and maybe the other teams will follow suit.Wshnats
- Mark Zuckerman - Feb 27, 2010 at 7:59 PM
You guys are correct: No. 33 (Frank Howard) and No. 42 (Jackie Robinson) are the only numbers not worn by any Nats since they arrived in town. Robinson's number is officially retired by every MLB team. Howard's number is unofficially retired by the Nats, as Frank Robinson's No. 20 was until Adam Kennedy arrived and was given permission to wear it.
- peric - Feb 27, 2010 at 8:22 PM
There's really just Killebrew (also #3) and Oliva who briefly were part of the original Washington Senators franchise. Cronin who's number was retired by the Carmine Hose played briefly for DC. Given the new "Strasburg" era it might be fitting to do something to honor Walter Johnson? Let Ballimer and NY honor the Babe.
- Sunderland - Feb 27, 2010 at 9:18 PM
I've been assuming that they will put Flores and Detwiler on the 60 DL, opening up 40 man spots for Livo and Guardado.
- JayB - Feb 27, 2010 at 9:29 PM
Hey Mark,Stan's speech to the team seems to have opened a interesting line of questions…."the time for making excuses is over"….that is about what he said right? Did anyone follow up on behalf of the fans and 6 year season ticket holders to ask, why was it acceptable to make excuses before now? Stan has made a bunch of excuses over the past 4 years in my view…I would like him to tell us why he though making excuses used to be unacceptable to him prior to 2010. Stan is so oily that would be a waste of my questions….you have mine already…Tim Foli holds the keys to if this team is going to improve.
- peric - Feb 27, 2010 at 9:36 PM
Why Tim Foli?
- JayB - Feb 27, 2010 at 9:59 PM
Foli has a new job….best I can tell unique to for the Nats….I have asked Mark in the past if it is unique to Baseball but did not get a response….yet….He is MLB coach in charge of pre game….he can not be in the dug out during the game. He will travel with the team. I would think he is in charge of defensive drills, fundamentals and effective use of warm up time…..something this team really needs bad. I like to get to the park early when I can and it is just stupid how much standing around and 15 hop grounders with no throws this team displays…..leads bad baseball every year if you ask me.
- Mark Zuckerman - Feb 27, 2010 at 10:25 PM
Foli's position is not unique. In fact, Jack Voigt held a similar role for the Nats back in 2005. I can't tell you off the top of my head how many other MLB clubs have the "extra" seventh coach, but there are more than a few.
- JayB - Feb 27, 2010 at 10:45 PM
Thanks Mark,Glad to hear that other teams have used it…..not too surprised to hear 2005 was the last time Nats used it….what was their record that year again and who owned the team?
- JayB - Feb 27, 2010 at 11:45 PM
"Nyjer!! I need you to get the bunt down all the time, not half the time!!" shouted Minor League Instructor Tim Foli. "You need to place every single bunt right on the dime, no margin for error!! You understand?" From Nats230 site
- peric - Feb 28, 2010 at 12:11 AM
Fundamentals … gotta love it.
- JayB - Feb 28, 2010 at 2:56 AM
I do love it….long over due…Foli is going to make a huge impact on this team.

This page describes a Groovy solution for ShortestSudokuSolver. Check the link for all the details, but basically the puzzle state is fed in as a String. Each line of the script must be no more than 80 characters in length.
The solution (210 characters plus 2 newlines):
- The script could be 26 characters shorter if Groovy supported integer division.
- The script could be 2 characters shorter using
rather thanprintln
if you didn't care about formatting - To make the function stop as soon as it finds the first solution (proper puzzles will only have one solution), the
becomeselse println a;System.exit(1)
Add the following line to the script to solve a partially complete puzzle (should take just a few seconds):
Alternatively, add the following line to the script to solve a puzzle from scratch (may take 30-60 minutes or more):
The expected output is:
Here is the more usual representation of the puzzle:
You can run it from the command-line by adding ;r args[0]

My Name is Konohamaru! (木ノ葉丸だ コレ!, Konohamaruda Kore!) is episode 2 of the original Naruto anime.
Naruto used a bizarre photograph of himself in his Ninja Registration Form. The Third Hokage told him to retake his photo, as the photograph made him seem senseless, but Naruto used his Sexy Technique in order to frustrate him. A child tried to attack the Hokage, but he tripped on his own scarf. A ninja arrived and seemed concerned for the child. He noticed Naruto, identifying him as the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. The child claimed that Naruto made him fall, trying to deny the fact that he fell over himself. Naruto disputed with the child, but the ninja, Ebisu, told him that the child was the grandson of the Third Hokage, revealing him to be Konohamaru Sarutobi. Ebisu then told Konohamaru to train with him so he will be Hokage quicker, but the boy slipped away during Ebisu's speech to follow Naruto. Ebisu panicked and left swiftly. The Konohamaru then followed Naruto through Konohagakure, trying to avoid being spotted. After Naruto saw through his obvious disguise, Konohamaru ordered Naruto to train him and teach him how to overthrow the Third Hokage.
After doing various steps of the training, Naruto asked Konohamaru why he was obsessed with the Hokage. Konohamaru then told him that the people never identified him as himself and just saw him as the Hokage's grandson, so he wanted to be Hokage, but Naruto told him that it was not easy to become one.
At the rooftops of the Hokage mansion, Iruka asked the Hokage about Naruto's ninja registration form. The Hokage then explained that he had issued a decree not to let anybody know the fact about Naruto's being a jinchūriki, and that he would punish those who broke it. He also said that the Fourth Hokage wanted the village to see Naruto as a hero, but most of the villagers saw Naruto as the Nine-Tails itself.
Finally, Ebisu found Konohamaru and Naruto. Konohamaru announced that he was trying to learn the way to beat his grandfather so he could become Hokage. Ebisu taunted Konohamaru, who responded by using the Sexy Technique on Ebisu, who was horrified by it. Then, Naruto used his Shadow Clone Technique. The Hokage watched them with his Telescope Technique. Then, Naruto transformed the clones into nude women with the Sexy Technique, and Ebisu had a huge nose bleed and fell unconscious. Naruto told Konohamaru that there was no shortcut to be Hokage. He then told him that they would be rivals, and that they would fight one day for the title of Hokage.
- In the edited English version, when the Third Hokage and Ebisu saw Naruto perform the Sexy Technique, the blood from their noses was censored.

I dont' know if anyone has tested Vadim's shader backend on a 2400 but it might be interesting to try.
The 2400/3200/3450/4200 have always had relatively poorer performance with the open drivers than with Catalyst -- I was about to say "and I'm not sure if we know why" when it occurred to me that those parts also have shader cores which are "more weak relative to the other blocks on the chip" and so it's *possible* that making the compiled shader code more efficient would have an even bigger difference on performance than it does with larger chips.
AFAIK you need latest mesa from git and to set an environment variable : R600_DEBUG=sb.
It's also possible that the slowdown is more related to the limited memory bandwidth. I'm not sure if the kernel driver in 12.04 LTS is new enough to let you enable the most recent tiling features (which should help on a bandwidth-limited card)... have you tried them already ? Not sure of current state of hyper-z on your card, hopefully someone can comment.

The Grammys, Los Angeles
The 7am start was shockingly unrockandroll, but its generally regarded as a good idea to arrive at the venue prior to the band. (The Edge was coming in early as he had an extracurricular activity for his Music Rising charity which had a feature slot on the Grammy show.) My van companions were equally underwhelmed by the early start but putting a brave face on it, though it did require an emergency coffee stop en route. I was most amused to find I could sit in the van outside and get online via the coffeeshops WiFi, whilst Steve conducted an international conference call. It was all a bit 21st century.
On arrival at Staples Center the madness was in full swing. Security was a circus, metal detectors, bag searches and large men with ear pieces. We waited in the queue, then once I got to bag-search the security automaton found my little pocket camera. 'Im sorry sir, theres no cameras allowed.' Err..Im with U2. 'Sir, youre going to have to put this in your car.' Err...I dont have a car. 'Well sir, you cant come in with this, there are no cameras allowed.' Err..but what about every cell phone in the building? 'Im sorry sir, Im going to have to ask you to stand over here.' There were now three of them going at me and they were starting to get quite large. I explain Im with U2, I have no intention of photographing anybody and my band is about to do their rehearsal so Id better be there. 'Im sorry sir.etc., etc.' Ive learned the hard way that there is absolutely no point in reasoning with this breed, so was just thinking Id have to go to plan B when I saw Bono arriving with his security guy, coming through the crowd, right past me, about to enter the building. I gave his shoulder a squeeze and slipped the camera into his pocket as he breezed through the metal detector and disappeared inside unharrassed. Trying to keep a straight face I turned back to the wall of grumpy security guys whod witnessed the whole thing. 'Thank you gentlemen, I no longer have a camera.'
The technical rehearsal - a full run through of the whole show - was a vast improvement on yesterday, as wed hoped and expected. We then only had four hours to kill before the show went live on air. I hung out, met lots of people I knew, caught up with friends and even managed to slip out for a bite to eat. There are 108 Grammy awards but only a dozen or so are televised. The rest, including such fabulous categories as 'Best Polka album' and 'Best Spanish Language Spoken Word Spoken Word Album', are given out at another ceremony preceding the main one. The TV show got underway at 5pm by which time U2 had already picked up Grammys for 'Sometimes' and 'City of Blinding Lights. U2s performance went well, so all were pleased and relieved and we even started to relax just a little. Bruce and I sat on chairs in the backstage corridor for a while to watch the melee, which was highly entertaining. So many famous faces passed back and forth, it was really quite surreal. One that I recognised was Rolan Bolan, son of Marc Bolan. Id never met him before but felt compelled to shake his hand and say hello, as T.Rex were my number one teen idols. Rolan was extremely nice and was wearing a T.Rex t-shirt to bring a little of his dad to the ceremony. It was a big moment for me.
As you will already know, by the end of the night U2 had picked up five Grammy Awards including Best Album which is the big one. It sounds predictable and unlikely to say so, but the band genuinely didnt expect to win. The competition was so strong and the Atomic Bomb album has been out for over a year so it seemed unlikely that theyd get it, which made the winning all the sweeter. It was great to watch them. There was much rejoicing (though sadly U2 was overlooked yet again in the Best Polka category.)
Everyone went out to party the night away, but I bailed. By the time I got back to the hotel I was the living dead. I havent stopped running since I landed at LAX on Monday. Im still punch drunk with jet lag and Im going to Mexico tomorrow. But other than that...

Bridget Moynahan Gossip
Bridget Moynahan gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Gisele and the parental hand-off
Click here if you missed the pictures last week of Gisele Bundchen visiting Tom Brady at Patriots' training camp with Ben and Jack. On Saturday she was seen packing up with the boys on their way to the airport. Brady did not travel with them. Full Story
Congratulations…dripped in acid
Bitter Bridget still isn't over it. As you know, Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen announced the birth of their son yesterday. It's Brady's second child. He and ex girlfriend Bridget Moynihan are the parents of little Jack. So Bridget felt compelled to release an acidic statement Full Story
Beezus and Bridget
Received an email this week from a Bridget Moynihan fansite requesting more Bridget. Here she is on the set of Ramona and Beezus yesterday getting touched up. You'll hate me for saying but she looks bitchy. Am told she's super bitchy. This is not Photo Assumption. Also – the adorable Selena Gomez holding a baby, playing big sister. Full Story
Tom Dad, Gisele Stepmother
Tom Brady. Yum. He spent Father's Day in LA with his son John and, of course, Gisele too. Looks lie G is bonding with the little guy. Attached – photos of Gisele holding the baby and of both hugging the nanny who came to pick him up. Scenes like these probably don't sit too well with Bitter Bridget. Full Story
Bridget's Brazilian Revenge
Interesting. Bridget Moynahan made a big deal about her suffering at the hands of Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen. She discovered she was pregnant right after they split, and there are differing reports about his involvement in his son's life. Bridget of course would like you to believe the theory that Tom is an absent father who prefers his supermodel over his spawn. Full Story
When the Ex Moves On
It's a good thing! And finally a piece of positive news for Tom Brady, pictured here in New York the other day out and about with Gisele. Although every day with Gisele must be a good day, there's no way the Superbowl sting has subsided. No f*cking way. And spending most of his time in New York probably doesn't help either. Full Story
Gisele & Tom: Best of 2007
Ridiculously hot separately. Supernova hot together. And supernovas always burn out. Pray Xenu Gisele and Tom can make it. Love them. Loved watching them all year. Love every rare candid photo. Love the way she flaunts her effortless gorgessity in the face of mounting wrath from the MiniVan Majority – a demographic now being courted by Tom's baby mother ex who pre-pregnancy had a reputation not so unlike the Alba Bitch. Full Story
The New MiniVan Favourite
Hollywood is awash with media savvy famewhores these days. Leading the pack Jessica Biel of course and newly emerged is Katherine Heigl and now Bridget Moynahan has joined the fray - tearing at the heartstrings of the MiniVan Majority to secure herself a professional foothold as a an attractive single mother and working actress hanging on to, yes would you believe it?, a development deal with ABC. Full Story
Why Bridget is Bitter and Bitchy
They were dating, they broke up, supposedly had not-very-careful goodbye sex, then he moves on not to a mousy looking football groupie but to Gisele Bundchen – easily one of the most amazing looking women on the planet. Can you blame Bridget Moynahan for burning the way she is? I'd be bitter and bitchy too. Full Story
The New Denise Richards?
I wonder – do the paps hang out at church? They must do because here's Bridget Moynahan, who wants all to know that Tom Brady wronged her, dutifully at church yesterday carving out a new image: devout single mother walking with the Lord. Do you smell Denise Richards? I smell Denise and maybe Shelf Ass's rep for good measure. Full Story
Trading Slaps
So Bridget Moynahan had her baby. Tom Brady was apparently at the hospital but not permitted inside for the birth. Word is he did spend some time with the boy before being told his mother wanted to limit his involvement. And despite telling teammates and even announcing on the field during a pre-season NFL game last week that the child had been christened with his own last name, Bridget's publicist made it very clear this week that motherhood has not tamed Bridget's bitch. Full Story
Brady Daddy
Bridget Moynahan gave birth today to a baby boy in LA. Apparently Tom Brady was present for the delivery and was seen at the hospital with flowers. Very sweet. Would it be wrong to smugmonger and wonder about Gisele on this happy occasion? source Full Story
Gisele Insecure or Bridget's Wishful Thinking?
Trouble is apparently plaguing the world's most beautiful couple – word is Gisele and Tom are rowing because Bridget Moynihan is scheduled to deliver Tom's son on Friday which is also Gisele's birthday. Even though his family is vacationing with the two of them, some say Gisele is becoming increasingly insecure and the tension is spilling over in public. Full Story
Brady, Bridget, Bundchen…and Baby
Awkward. Bridget Moynihan and Tom Brady broke up just before the holidays. She's now 3 months pregnant. Which pretty much means she was fertilized during Goodbye Sex? Now of course he's with Gisele. Reportedly hooked up around Christmas. Getting closer and closer by the day and currently enjoying a romantic week in Paris. Full Story

Gallery: VanDusen Botanical Center to Be Canada's First Living Building
The center was inspired by an orchid and features 'petals' that shoot off from a central stem, which also serves as the lobby and central atrium.
The design for the visitor center was inspired by the leaves of an orchid — its wings consists of 'petals' that shoot off from the 'stem', which serve as the central atrium and lobby. The stem has been built from rammed earth and features a vaulted ceiling and roof constructed from prefab wood-glue laminated beams made by StructureCraft Builders Inc. A glass tower in the atrium infuses the center with natural daylight and also serves as a solar chimney that exhausts hot air. Grass and colorful floral bulbs will be planted on the undulating green roof, which will also direct rain into underground cisterns for use around the center.
A photovoltaic system on the roof will generate electricity for the center, and hot water will be provided by a biomass boiler fed by dry wood waste reclaimed from the surrounding area. Totally off-grid, the center will provide all of its own power and will source all of its own water from rain catchment, storm water and black water recycling.

crystal-clear pink wine with fresh and delicate fruit on the nose. It is aromatic, well balanced and appealing.
A deep velvety red with flavours of blackberry and blackcurrant and just a hint of spice. It is bold, juicy and and well-structured with soft seductive tannins.
Dark reddish-purple, this Languedoc red breathes ripe, grapey fruit, raspberry fruits, and fragrant black pepper with a lightly herbaceous 'leafy' back note. Full and luscious on the first taste, its juicy black fruit is nicely balanced by tart, crisp acidity, with soft tannins lurking behind the fruit to create a fresh, mouth-watering flavour - great structure. Very luscious on palate. Finishes on ripe intense black fruit finish - delicious!

Exhibition The Etruscans and the Mediterranean.
The City of Cerveteri
from December 4, 2013 to March 10, 2014
This exhibition presents the Etruscan civilization through the history of one of its greatest cities: Cerveteri (formerly Caere).
Many people still have a romantic view of the Etruscan civilization as that of a mysterious people who lived in central Italy during the centuries of peace, and for whom death was, in the words of D. H. Lawrence, "a pleasant continuance of life". But this vision is far from the reality uncovered by the archaeological excavations of recent decades.
The exhibition introduces this great civilization—a confederation of autonomous city-states—with a focus on the city of Cerveteri, the ancient Caere. By comparing the results of research conducted in museums and on-site (in the necropolises, city and port), it is now possible to trace the development of this powerful, densely populated maritime city whose political, cultural and commercial history is linked to that of the great cities on the shores of the Mediterranean, from the Near East to North Africa, from Greece to southern France, not forgetting Rome.
Organized by:
Françoise Gaultier and Laurent Haumesser, Musée du Louvre; Paola Santoro, Vincenzo Bellelli, CNR-ISMA; Alfonsina Russo, Rita Cosentino, Soprintendenza per i Beni Archeologici dell'Etruria Meridionale.

The Army Black Knights sing their alma mater after the win over the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs at the Cotton Bowl Stadium. / Jerome Miron, USA TODAY Sports
After nearly 48 hours of uncertainty amid the federal government shutdown, the Department of Defense gave the go-ahead for the service academies to play college football this weekend. That includes a game between Air Force and Navy in Annapolis, Md., which had been sold out and scheduled for a national network broadcast on CBS.
The Naval Academy athletic department announced late Wednesday night that the game would go on as planned, with kickoff set for 11:30 a.m. ET. Army is scheduled to play Boston College at 12:20 p.m, though neither athletic department officially announced that the game was happening. It was unclear whether other sports scheduled for this weekend would play, Navy spokesman Scott Strasemeier said via Twitter.
Officials at all three schools spent most of Wednesday in limbo, waiting for approval from the Pentagon, which on Tuesday suspended all intercollegiate athletic competition at the service academies in the wake of the Federal government shutdown. Air Force, according to a person with knowledge of the discussions but who was not authorized to speak publicly, submitted a plan to Department of Defense in which all travel expenses would be paid with non-government funds, which was crucial given that other non-essential government services have been shut down. Boston College athletic director Brad Bates said earlier Wednesday that his school had offered financial assistance for Army to travel.
For everyone involved, playing games this weekend was preferable to the logistical nightmare of trying to reschedule for later in the season. Navy had also planned other events around Saturday's game, with several alumni scheduled to travel in for a special ceremony, not to mention more than 40,000 ticketholders who would have been inconvenienced.

House fire leaves woman, baby homeless
Tiffiney LozanoStaff Writer2/24/2010A house fire last week, inadvertently caused by a property owner, has left a Blairsden women and her 14-month-old daughter homeless.
No injures were reported; however, the duplex unit located just off Bonta Street suffered significant damages.
According to Graeagle Fire Protection Chief Ed Ward, homeowner Steve Parks and Vincent Martinez, both of Portola, were spraying foam installation under the house, last Wednesday, Feb 17. The men were under the unit's hot water heater when the spray came in contact with the pilot light flame, causing the home to ignite said Chief Ward.
Parks confirmed in a phone interview that he was under the house at the time of the fire. At the time of interview the cause of fire was still under investigation.
Parks said there was no explosion, just a loud "poof," and then "whatever it was ignited." He said he quickly ran to the hardware store and bought two fire extinguishers and tried to put the fire out.
The fire department arrived on scene, and unable to go inside, put the fire down from the outside as quickly as possible. Battalion Chief Ivan Randall said firefighters were on fire watch all night, but by morning the fire was completely out.
One unit was completely destroyed, all personal belongings lost, while the adjoining apartment suffered mostly smoke and water damage.
According to Parks, both tenants had moved in recently. The destroyed unit was home to Shirley Spalinger, who had moved in a week ago with her baby.
Spalinger was not present when the fire broke out, and arrived to find her home engulfed in flames. There was no time to save anything. She was left with no food or clothing for her baby, not even medication for her mother, who was visiting from out of town.
Spalinger went to use the phone at nearby Mohawk Realty. Owner Jeannette Sasser reported the woman and her husband had recently adopted the baby. Shortly after the adoption, the husband passed away in August, leaving Spalinger alone with their new baby.
Sasser said the community felt awful for the victims, who were clearly "devastated," and pulled together to provide what little help it could.
Neighbors scrambled to find fire extinguishers and water hoses in the cold of winter to kill the flames. Sasser said a man who saw the flames from Johnsville came down to help.
Mike Boyd of Feather River Park provided a cabin for the women to sleep in that night, and the Red Cross provided a hotel the following night.
Chief Ward said his office would offer whatever support it could in the way of money or volunteers. The department will also accept any donations on behalf of the displaced woman and baby. Donations may be made by contacting Judy at 836-1340.
Parks said the Spalinger Family Support fund is also being set up through Portola Station Baptist Church. Donations of furniture, clothing or funds can be made by calling 832-4334.

Who ever proposed merging it with Mesa?
1. It's closed source, so that throws that out the window
2. The code is very likely to be non-portable considering the amount of effort required to get it running on Win/FreeBSD/Linux, and since the Win32 code is so different (d3d backend), it may as well be a completely separate project
3. Even if the developer opened up the source code, it would take so much effort to integrate it with mesa/DRI/DRM that it'd be easier to rewrite it from scratch
4. The renderer seems to sacrifice accuracy/precision in the name of speed, and that's generally not how mesa rolls (at least not without making it a user-tunable option).
This is just more of the crazy Germans and their ray-tracing, software-rendering nonsense...
Does a chip even exist in the sub-$10,000 range which could draw a game like Mass Effect 3 at 60 fps at 1920x1080 in real-time using ray tracing, software rendering, or both? (We're assuming just the actual visual fidelity of a game like that, not THE actual game, because you'll say that the API it was coded in is fundamentally flawed blah blah).
Don't google it; I'll answer your question: No.

Othy down

Re: Othy downKeep up the good work and recovery.
All power to you - the bike is waiting patiently !!!
Re: Othy downThanks for the update. That x-ray is mind blowing
It's good to hear you are making progress, however slow it may seem. Keep at it FPR Ragamuffin
Re: Othy downgood luck Othy. it's challenges like this that define us and it sounds like you're meeting it head on. it's good to read about your progress.
Re: Othy downSmall update. Physio again today. My vertical lift is 120 degrees on the right and 110 degrees on the left, +20 degrees improvement in a month, but still a long way to go, doctor was hoping for 160 in two weeks time but I think thats probably ambitious. Strength is really poor on the outer arm muscle which probably has a technical name (didn't have much to lose on the upper body strength).
Went for a drive yesterday and visited the velodrome for training and had a chat. That plus hydrothrapy yesterday made for a sore morning at the physio so that may have skewed the results a bit. Not much else to report, just sticking at it. Hooked the bike up to the mag trainer but haven't done a session yet. Sat on it briefly and it was too uncomfortable. Might try again on the weekend.
Re: Othy downGreat to hear that you are progressing well, albeit slowly.
Keep it up !!!
Re: Othy downKeep it up, my friend. Persistence pays. I'm coming up on two years since my shoulder op and I'm still eeking out small improvements nearly every week.
Will it ever be normal? Perhaps not, but I'll be damned if I'm going to 'settle' for a second-best existence like my Dad did after his spinal injuries.
Re: Othy downAppologies I didn't get to chat, as you saw I was busy with the newbies. Will catch up another time
Got bored of my signature
Re: Othy downBeen a while since I updated. Jules21 thread reminded me to post this, originally posted on my club forum last week:
I had my first x-ray checkup at the end of May, and it was found that my left shoulder is most likely suffering from necrosis. Somewhat speculative as the x-rays can't completely confirm it until the structure of the bone starts to deteriorate and by that point its too late for further treatment. I was given a referral to an Endocrinologist to see about a therapy that they use for osteoporosis patients that may prevent the necrosis from progressing. I booked him in for mid this month as he was on leave, but was willing to see me his first day back. In the mean time I had blood tests for a bunch of things and a Bone Density scan in preparation for the appointment to speed everything along. Had the appointment and discussed the medication, its side effects and treatment and was booked in last Wednesday to receive it. Was required to take some large doses of Vitamin D on a weekly basis to help with the treatment. The drug used is a bisphosphonate called Zoledronic acid. It requires 1 infusion now and another in 6 weeks time, followed by xrays after that to see if anything has changed. On Wednesday last week I had my first treatment. Apparently they're all done on this day so it was me and a group of ladies, all of which old enough to be my grandmother, waiting for our turn. The drug is given over a 15 minute infusion through a drip. It was all pretty straight forward and no immediate effects. I went to work afterwards and was fine for the rest of the day. The side effects kicked in that evening and it wasn't particularly pleasant. It felt like a flu but no coughing/runny nose. Just ached all over and had a headache. Felt really tired, lethargic, and weak. Stayed like that for two days, which I barely left the bed. My shoulders got very sore, but this could be from lying in bed for prolonged lengths. I brightened up a bit on the weekend and I think I'm now better, but suffering a little from fatigue. Shoulders aren't sore anymore (seem to return to normal levels) and I'm moving around more. Hopefully the drug is doing some good. Its somewhat experimental but weighing up the risks and the possibly positive outcome I think its worthwhile trying. It was pretty expensive too considering its a off script usage from medicare, and therefore all out of pocket.
Re: Othy downthanks for updating othy. stay strong and look forward to hearing more about your progress.
Re: Othy downBugger !!! Keep up the positive attitude and hope that it all goes well.
Re: Othy downIf it works for you Othy, then it's worth it. All the best mate!
I don't suffer fools easily and so long as you have done your best,you should have no regrets.
Goal 6000km
Re: Othy downCome on Othy,
how are you doing. Your well overdue for another update. Surly Ogre, Carry Freedom Y-frame Trailer, Extrawheel trailer.
Re: Othy downNecrosis Strewth! Sorry to hear that.
Please keep us up to date.
Re: Othy downTime for another update. Good news now..
I had several treatments with the (experiemental..) zoledronic acid for the necrosis, and it seems this has worked. My humeral heads have not collapsed, and it looks like I'm past the danger time frame for this occurring. Had a bone scan with spect to determine if the heads had re-vascularised, and they have (except for a small section, but apparently this should come good). Will have another bone scan in 6 months time to confirm everything is still good. Saw the orthopaedic surgeon too, he has no concerns now and says any further treatment will be up to me. I should be doing as much physio as possible, and in 4-5 months time I can evaluate where my movement is at. I still haven't plateaued yet in strength and range. It may then be possible to get more movement by doing some key-hole surgery to remove scarring in the joint. This involves an overnight stay but apart from that is fairly low risk and won't cause me to have to start again as far as learning to use my arms goes. I probably have 75% percent of my left arm range back, and 65% of my right. I plan to get to the Velodrome tomorrow night for my first ride back since the accident in January. I've gone from being a super fit 70kg, to a fat 83kg in that time.
Re: Othy downThat's good to hear Othy!
Foo I don't suffer fools easily and so long as you have done your best,you should have no regrets.
Goal 6000km
Re: Othy downGreat news re the necrosis !!
Re: Othy downgood on ya otty. it's heart warming to hear of your progress and that you're getting back on the bike.
Re: Othy downI've been doing a few commutes, including today - and everyone overtakes me. Also been to Centennial Park on Saturday mornings. Longest ride has been about 40km, and was slow (~25km/h). Getting my fitness back up slowly, haven't lost any weight yet but not too concerned. Shoulders are doing well - I think the riding is helping. Still doing lots of physio.
Re: Othy downYayyyy happy dances all round!
Now have patience and don't over do things. Foo I don't suffer fools easily and so long as you have done your best,you should have no regrets.
Goal 6000km
Re: Othy downWhoa!
Don't know Othy but I'm glad he healed quick. Kudo's to the Truck Driver for stopping to help EDIT A million apologies - I thought this thread was one page 2012 Oppy A4
Re: Othy downI'd missed the update - glad to hear the treatment worked.

Epic is incredible : they are contracting someone (Icculus I guess) to port their closed source game to Mac and Linux and they don't even know where the things are ?
It's not the way I'm used to follow my contractants in my job. I guess that way my boss wouldn't appreciate it.
Could you imagine this scenario :
- Hey, were are we with that project we've paid for ?
- I don't know
- Well... Could you do something to know ?
- ... not really. I can't reach him, I don't know where he is... And to be honnest, I don't really care.
- Ok, do you see that door over there ?
I guess the next step in UT3 linux/mac client will be to say : "the financial crysis urge us to stop any further development for the port. Too much expensive, too few potential clients, we stop everything. Call the banks and the traders responsible for the world crysis and fµck them all".
I bet a cookie (a real cookie, not a firefox cookie ) that the crysis is the perfect story for ending that mess from Epic/Midway.

One of the many questions we are asked in the Discovery Centre is about the many and varied birds and mammals people sight in their own surburban backyards. One such enquiry came to us from Steve from East Brighton who had spotted an albino possum in his garden.
Ally, the albino possumImage: Steve Mitchelmore Source: Steve Mitchelmore
In February 2012 Steve discovered an albino baby brush-tail possum in his backyard. He wanted to know how rare they were as he had been observing possums for years, and this is the first albino one he had seen. One of our experts responded with the following;
Albino mammals are not totally unknown; we have received specimens at about a three year interval on average. Once the gene is introduced into a local population then their occurrence becomes a bit more periodic although only about once in a generation. Because they are not camouflaged as well as their parents or siblings they are readily detected by predators and could be easily taken as prey. A true albino will also have poor eyesight due to the lack of pigmentation in the eye again making them susceptible to predation. It will be interesting to follow this young animal and see how it survives such traumas.
To which Steve responded;
About three weeks ago I noticed the small tail and one paw protruding from the mother's pouch seemed unnaturally pale in colour, then last night the juvenile, creamy white with deep red eyes, was on its mother's back...
P.S. Regarding predators, do you know if Powerful Owls inhabit the East Brighton area?
To which our expert replied;
I am unsure about the Powerful Owl's situation in East Brighton but I can say that they have been seen/heard in many Melbourne suburbs. So if the area concerned is heavily vegetated – that is with large trees then there is every possibility that one of these large owls will make its presence felt.
Early in July, Steve sent the following update;
... you mentioned that it would be interesting to follow her development and any 'traumas' she may endure. She still comes by almost every night, having been AWOL on only six or seven occasions since late January. She has the un-original name of 'Ally' (as in Ally the Albino)... As for traumas, so far so good, apart from when she fell into the pool three nights ago. Luckily the water level was so high following all the recent rain that she had no trouble getting herself out.
Then in late July, he sent in his last update;
Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but . . . Sadly, Ally has not been sighted since Monday night...Some months ago she disappeared for three nights straight, but I won't hold my breath after seven. I've made numerous calls to local vets, DSE, Wildlife Victoria...Animal Rescue etc. all to no avail and searches of neighbouring yards for fur or remains have also been fruitless... I'm still amazed she survived as long as she did. Anyway, it was certainly an enjoyable (and educational!) six months. She will be sadly missed. Once again, thanks for your time and response to my emails.
Got a question? Ask us!
UPDATE: Ally has been spotted again!
WILD: Amazing animals in a changing world
Hi Michelle,
The home range (feeding grounds) of a Brushtail Possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) vary depending on the amount of food available and the population density of possums in any particular area. Home ranges decrease as food becomes more abundant, and as the population density increases - and vice versa. This will change over the years as circumstances change, and a possum will sometimes leave its home range altogether and set up a new one somewhere else. But generally a possum's home range is in the vicinity of 1-15 hectares.
Coincidentally, an albino Brushtail Possum living in Hampton was spotted two kilometres from where it was first seen a year previously. More information can be found here and here.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.
Well spotted! And yes - we would love to see your photos. More than likely it is Ally as the chances of another Albino possum in Brighton are rather slim, though not impossible.
We would also be happy for you to send us your photos too.
For Museum Victoria's position on feeding possums, please refer to our webpage Feeding native animals.

Great! I can tell that it works when I take it, and it doesn't when I do not take it. So, since I can tell the difference, I know that I need it. It really has helped my IBS.
After years of no life and never being able to relax in public my Doctor gave me some samples of Align I noticed a difference in less than a week! I heard that Align won an Edison Award for innovation it definitely gets my vote! Thank you Align for giving me my life back !!!!
This is a good quality calcium. It seems to help with my muscle aches and stopped heart palpitations. Only down side is, my herbalist said that the dosage is a little low and that two a day are needed, if one.
Calcium is important for bone support. Suitable for vegetarians. sugar and starch free.

Hang on to your faboosh hats everyone, I'm about to use my Mom Voice. You know what the "Mom Voice" is, don't you? It's that voice that every mother has – it comes out of nowhere, with an abundance of power and authority that dare not be questioned by any child or husband within earshot. It doesn't come out very often, but oh boy, watch out when it does….
We all have heard of "Rock The Vote" right? Well here's an update for 2011 – "Mom The Vote!"
The #MomTheVote campaign is the brainchild of Canadian blogger Karen Green – who started the movement on her blog "The Kids Are Alright" just a few short days ago. Fast forward to today, and the media frenzy that #MomTheVote is creating is gaining momentum and speeding up like crazy. So far #MomTheVote has been covered by the Globe & Mail, CBC News, as well as countless blogs (by moms and non-moms alike!). Next week, Karen will be writing articles related to #MomTheVote on YummyMummyClub.ca & you know that the momentum is only going to go full speed ahead after that! We're down to the last 2 weeks before the election, Moms have a voice, and we're all putting our "Mom Voice" into full gear.
For more info – check out the Mom The Vote fanpage on Facebook, or Karen Green's Twitter feed. You – will – be – glad – you – did!
PS – In case you hadn't already figured out my thinly veiled message – on May 2nd, get out there and VOTE! It's your right as a Canadian, exercise it.

Living vicariously through your travels for now!!
Sounds like you guys have encountered some serious hostel weirdos... well agros!! Geez what's wrong with people!
And cracking up that there was actually something living in Al's beard!!!!!!
Peru, Lima
Trip Start
Apr 10, 2012
Trip End
Apr 06, 2013
Our airport pickup was there as promised by the hostel and we headed off. On the way Jerry and The Pacemakers Ferry Across the mersey came on! How spooky just as we arrive in a country half way across the world and an iconic Liverpool song comes on! After about 15 minutes we arrived at the hostel. The area seems ok, there are a lot of people milling about and it does seem like a poor country but there are also loads of beautiful buildings, some that are a bit run down but that adds to the character.
The hostel is in a big old mansion style building with really high ceilings and big tall doors. SJ thought that it felt nice and was light and airy. It would be great to have party's as everyone would be able to stay because there are so many rooms!
We dumped our bags in our dorm and headed off to the common area for happy hour. The beers cost 5 soles which is about £1.18, bargain! AK was very impressed!
We got chatting to a guy from the US and had a good interesting conversation about all kinds of stuff. We headed off to bed and woke everyone in our dorm by rooting through our backpacks! We need to get savvy with dorm etiquette. So we settled down in our separate bunk beds and had no problem falling asleep.
We got up fairly early (it is very rare these days that SJ has a lie in although she is still grumpy when she first wakes up) had our breakfast that consisted of bread rolls and butter and jam with Coffee or Tea. It was basic but free so we didn't complain.
We headed out to explore....first stop the supermarket. It's quite cheap in Peru, we bought bottles of body wash, soap, food and drinks, battery's and good quality padlocks for our backpacks and a few other bits and bobs and the lot came up to about £20! Back home it would have been at least 3 times the amount.
We walked around seeing the sights and ended up in the main square. The weather was nice and it was a Sunday so lots of the locals were out and about. The square was really nice and had lots of grand old buildings. They were all around a big park and water fountain. We went to the tourist information centre and found out about all the cool and free (or really cheap) things to do.
We stumbled across a big church and monastery and decided to pay £1.50 to look around the monastery side. The church is called Saint Francis Monastery and is part of the UNESCO world heritage list. It has a library with really old books that date back to before the Spanish Conquest in 1532. The church and monastery itself dates back to 1673 and survived many earthquakes although it suffered extensive damage in the 1970 earthquake.
Underneath the monastery there are many narrow tunnels. These were used as a cemetery or ossuary and contain over 70,000 burials.the catacombs are now literally scattered everywhere. We I say scattered I mean the bones are lined up by type rather than in complete skeletons and there are a number of skulls which make it quite eery. There were deep wells that contain layer upon layer of skeletons.
Some tunnels were bricked up and are thought to lead to places such as the cathedral in another part of the city. It was really interesting and the only thing that spoiled it was a rude and arrogant American lady. We had initially joined a Spanish speaking tour guide as we did not know that there was English ones. Needless to say we didn't understand much of it! We then passed an English speaking guide so decided to tag along at the back. We didn't know that it was infact a private guide (not sure what that even means! If someone is speaking in public is it against the law or wrong to listen??). So we think this busy body American lady had pulled the guide to one side and complained. The guide asked us what group we are in so not realising about the 'private status' we pointed to the American lady's guide and said this one at which the American lady smugly and arrogantly said 'no you are not'. Not sure who made her the 'private guide police'. Some people must have real self esteem issues to delight in someone else's mistake to make them feel good about themselves. In the end it was ok as we joined a group of Irish people who had an English speaking guide. They were much more friendly and warm.
On our way home we stopped off at the supermarket to buy something cheap for dinner and came away with rice and meat and crusty bread.
After dinner we decided to stay in the hostel common area and have a drink. We had a great time chatting to everyone. About 12pm an older American guy who looks in his late 50s early 60s came out of his room and sat down next to a dutch guy called Casper. He started to talk about visiting prostitutes and was just generally being weird. At one point he asked SJ where she is from and then started to act like she was speaking a foreign language and told her several times that he couldn't understand her but in a real arrogant and cocky way. After a while SJ just told him he needs to learn proper English and decided to ignore him. Poor Casper had no such luck as the American guy continued to chat shit to him for ages.
Later on, and after several large glasses of liquor he started to get a bit more arrogant and cocky and a bit passive aggressive. A really nice Finnish couple came over and asked AK & SJ what time breakfast was and this seemed to kick him off as he got all nasty saying that the breakfast was crap and that they didn't serve real coffee. We tried to ignore him but he was like a bad smell and hung around. He overheard us talking about visiting Tennessee and muttered under his breath 'bunch of ni_____rs' - insert racist word. We really could not believe it so AK asked him what he had just said and he wouldn't repeat it. We carried on talking and then he muttered 'cock sucker' under his breath, we assume at AK so that was it. AK was not happy and confronted him but again he was being a coward. SJ pushed AK into the bedroom and told him to leave it but he wouldn't so he confronted him again but the spineless little man just sat there. After we went to bed we heard him storming up and down and shouting and acting all big by knocking things over and saying 'let's start this' but really he is just a sad old drunk who shits himself when anyone confronts him!
AK still didn't take any chances though and sat up in bed clutching his pepper spray in case he came in. At one point he was stood by our dorm door, in just boxer shorts (and very tight ones at that) pepper spray at the ready waiting for him to come in. The old guy would have had the shock of his life, even before being hit with pepper spray, at the sight of a bearded man in just a pair of briefs! AK eventually fell asleep with his hand firmly clutching the pepper spray.
So we ended our first full day in Peru by being insulted by two rude and obnoxious Americans but it didn't spoil things for us. We have good vibes about Peru and although Lima is how we imagined a south American City to be it is also very different as well. We feel that we are going to have good times in Peru.
After the events of the night before we woke up a little tired and as it was raining we decided to hang around the hostel and catch up with things on the computer. We looked for some volunteer work and sent some emails and SJ tried to catch up with the blog.
The rain went off so we decided to go and look for flip flops for SJ to wear in the shower. The hostel reception reccomended an indoor market so we headed there. On the way we bought deep fried whole potatoes that are stuffed with mince meat and are served with cabbage for 1 soles which is 25 pence, bargain. They tasted really good and were quite filling so that was lunch sorted for us! At the market SJ found the pair of flip flops that she wanted so we tried to barter with the seller for a better price but she was having none of it. We walked away without buying them. SJ was gutted as she really liked them but we might go back tomorrow.
We headed to the supermarket for food for dinner and AK got a whole cooked chicken and some barns and SJ got tuna, avocado, tomato, fresh lime and plantain and made a tuna salad back at the hostel (we think there might be some hidden cooking skills in her somewhere as it turned out pretty good apart from the fact she burnt the plantain!)
We spent the evening drinking beer in the common area and met two English lads who were taking a break from their medical degree and are in Peru doing research on the effects of altitude versus sea level. SJ headed off to bed and AK stayed up drinking. There was another drama when a French lady started to freak out and tip bins over because people were being loud in the common room! We have found that 75% of the older generation of hostel goers are totally nuts and are dysfunctional in some way. She was threatened with eviction because of her reaction. Even SJ knows that you can't do a damn thing about the noise in hostels and that decent ear plugs are a must.
We woke up on Tuesday fairly late at 9.40 as we were tired from being kept awake by these crazy people but we showered, had breakfast and headed out to the market to get the flip flops SJ wanted. We had a good think and realised that at 30 soles (£7) they were a bargain!
We visited another museum and seen loads of traditional Peruvian stuff like clothes and pottery and coins. We also visited an art gallery and SJ got shouted at because the guard thought she touched the painting but she didn't. They then followed us around the gallery watching us which spoilt it a bit.
In the evening we had dinner from the supermarket and SJ chilled in the dorm and caught up on the blog a bit while AK went drinking in the bar until late (there is pattern developing here!). We got a bit of sleep but as we are in a dorm it is inevitable that you get woken up.
On Wednesday morning we decided to take the bus to the next town called Miraflores. The bus cost 3 soles each (75p) but it is a little crazy! There is a driver and another person that hangs out the door shouting the destination of the bus. This person hangs on for dear life, the bus itself was ancient and definitely would not pass its MOT back in the UK so coupled with the fact that the roads are crazy too it makes for a very dangerous job!
Miraflores was a nice little town with a park called Kennedy Park or 'Cat park'. There was at least 60 - 70 cats that were hanging around the park, all of them stray but they looked pretty healthy. The local people (well mostly crazy old cat ladies that SJ is sure to become one day) turned up equipped with tins of cat food, bowls and fresh water for all the cats. This made SJ very happy.
We headed toward the coast as we had been told It was quite pleasant and after a 30 minute walk we found a lovely pier and a beach made from fairly large pebbles. The waves were fairly large and there were a number of surfers. AK and SJ think they might have a go of surfing but probably not until we get round to the warmer waters of south east Asia.
After a McFlurry (McDonalds really is everywhere) we jumped on another crazy bus back to Lima. This bus was exactly the same distance and route as the morning bus but cost us 4 soles each. We think they make up the prices depending on your accent!
We were still a couple of blocks away from our hostel when the woman who hangs out the door started to say something to us in Spanish but we didn't understand at first. Then another passenger tried to explain but again we didn't know what they were saying. Eventually we figured that she wanted us to get off the bus! She gave us some money back and kicked us off the bus! We thought maybe it didn't go right up to the hostel but the bus seemed to be heading that way so we are not sure why we had to get off!
In the evening we headed to a fountain/laser show with a few people from the hostel. We had heard that it was pretty good so we bought a bottle of beer each and headed the two blocks up to the park. After smuggling in our beer (you can get arrested for drinking on the streets unless it's in a brown paper bag!?!) we caught the last five minutes of the show which was pretty impressive and was a bit like the Bellagio water fountains. What was more impressive though was when someone exclaimed 'oh my god there is a caterpillar in your beard' at which we all rushed over to AK to investigate and there it was, a real live caterpillar battling its way through the thick mass that is AK's facial hair.
SJ being SJ she promptly rescued the poor little thing that was clearly worn out and very relieved to be free of what must have seemed like a very dense jungle, and placed him on a tree trunk.
The third impressive thing we witnessed that night was the cork from a bottle of wine being removed with nothing but a shoe and a brick wall....yes it really can be done!
As we missed most of the first show we stayed for the second show and then headed back towards the hostel and the supermarket to get dinner. Also, AK had decide that seeing as it was our last night in Lima he was going to purchase and drink a pint bottle of the local rum which you can buy for about £4.50!
Back at the hostel SJ stayed up until about 1.30am buy decided to call it a night as we had to be up early for our flight to Cusco in the morning. When SJ left AK he was half way through his bottle of Rum and was starting to take on the glossy eyed look that SJ knows so well. He was having a great time though so SJ said goodnight and reminded AK to set his alarm when he came to bed (SJ can't hear it through her ear plugs).......
AK woke SJ up about 8.15 which was about 45 minutes later than planned. AK was very hung over and had forgotten to set the alarm. After hastily packing our bags, showering and shovelling down breakfast we said goodbye to everyone and ran out onto the street to get a taxi to the airport.
We were told that it was easy to just stop a taxi right outside the hostel so we tried to stop a few but they didn't seem to want to take us! We started to panic a bit and started to walk down the road and around the corner. Again every taxi we stopped said no when we told them we wanted to go to the airport. Some didn't even bother to say 'no' and just drove off!
Eventually one agreed to take us but by this time we had about 25 minutes to get to the airport and get to check in before it closed. It was at least a 20 minute drive so AK and SJ were very nervous (although AK probably less so as he was still a bit drunk from the night before!) after battling traffic we pulled up at the airport with about 1 minute to spare so we hastily paid the taxi and literally ran as fast as we could with our 15kg backpacks up the airport check in desks until we found the LAN one! The very friendly check in staff (we are not used that back home!) checked us in even though we think it was past the check in time! On that note we have found the South American airline Taca/LAN to be very modern, efficient and reliable with great on board facilities and the staff very friendly! This is not what we expected and very different to some of the western operated airlines we have used!
So we boarded yet another flight, in the nick of time, and got settled for the short flight up to Cusco flying over the beautiful Andes. SJ didn't have time to get nervous although if she knew what that short flight was going to be like she might not have even got on the plane!
hiya sarah and Alan you both look realy well and i am enjoying looking at all your photos and reading what you both are up to.I loved the photo of footprints sarah im sure your dad is watching over you both and smiling lots.we are all fine here suzanne is getting realy big not to long now and you will be an aunty and uncle again. take care of one another lots of love sue xx

""It's not so much a frenzy as it was before, but in the long term it's going in the right direction." "
Aircraft Guide
As soon as the first owner departs from the manufacturer's delivery center, a new airplane technically becomes used (or preowned). For various reasons, however, 10 years after an aircraft's final production date is generally considered the milestone separating "newer" used business aircraft from "older" ones.
In deciding which aircraft to cover, we went well past this 10-year mark to provide information on all business airplanes and helicopters manufactured since 1993. This means our list includes some models manufactured before that year, as long as they were still being produced as recently as 1993. As a rule, a long production run is indicative of a successful aircraft.
We have not listed new models that, at press time, had yet to receive final certification.
