I agree that legalization is miles better than the current insane policy today, but alas, good is the enemy of the better. Given marijuana's notoriety as a gateway drug, I find it difficult to believe that it would not lead towards a slippery slope.
There was an excellent article on the September/October 2011 issue of Foreign Affairs that advocated a "partial decriminalization" of drugs. The premise is that if jail stays were extremely short (1-2 days), inspections were frequent, and repeated offenders were given mandatory treatment, the level of drug use would fall dramatically. Hawaii's HOPE program, which offers these very principles, was able to reduce hard drug usage (meth, cocaine, crack, etc.) by 80 percent in just a year. The program more than paid for itself by reducing spending on incarceration.
Because drug abuse is an ENORMOUS public health problem and can be a contributor towards rising health costs in the long term, it needs to be addressed rather than tolerated.
Here are my full thoughts:
But isn't the main way that marijuana is a "gateway drug" due to the fact that it is illegal? That is, it is a gateway only because the same person is selling a variety of illegal drugs. If it was legal, the buyer would not make the initial contact with the illegal drug dealer.
If that's correct, it would suggest that legalization would actually decrease the slippery slope problem you are talking about.
Correlation does not prove causation. The "gateway drug" myth is something that has been repeated to death since the beginning of the War on Drugs. It is not true. You can read for yourself via a study by the Institute of Medicine, commissioned by the U.S. Congress in 1999:
Smoking marijuana does have long-term health effects, but so does smoking tobacco and drinking alcohol. It should be kept in context. There are also other ways to consume marijuana without smoking it -- vaporizers, edibles, liquid drops, etc.
I agree that any drug abuse is a bad thing. However, I think it's far worse to jail or give criminal records to people who are drug users. A drug charge on your record, even for possession, can hurt future job prospects. Incarceration is also costly to society and not a good use of resources. Unless you used drugs and hurt another person in that act, there is no reason the criminal justice system should even be involved. I do think we should have treatment centers, but they should be voluntary, not punitive.
Marijuana's notoriety as a "gateway drug" can be ultimately traced back to one man: Harry J. Anslinger, who was the first commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics from 1930 till 1962(!) In 1951, Anslinger was going to testify before a Congressional committee why the proposed Boggs Act should be passed into law, when the witness before him--an MD who ran a drug rehab clinic in Lexington, KY--stated that the medical community had pretty much established marijuana wasn't addictive, nor did it make you insane or kill you; all the things Anslinger had been claiming about marijuana since before 1930. Having thus had his main talking points pre-empted, Anslinger had to think fast, and what he came up with (more or less on the spur of the moment) was that marijuana was dangerous because it was "the certain first step on the road to heroin addiction."
When weed is laced with these harder drugs which is often the case it is most definitely in that context a 'gateway drug'. And there in lies the problem IMHO. The quality control of legalization of weed or the lack thereof will usher in a call for full legalization of all drugs now deemed illegal. That is the only slippery slope that concerns me. Kids ODing on on hard drugs as first time users, etc will happen with frequency. As well, the cops and authorities that "missed the memo" will still harass and worse(like the kid that was killed in Georgia that was naked and stoned) A bad trip on the wrong drug could get a person shot these days if the cops are around legal drugs or not.
You say "often the case" but do you have any statistics to back that up? In my experience, I've found that to be extremely rare if not regularly overstated. Also, one of the key points of legalizing marijuana is to bring the suppliers and the transaction out of the dark so it can be taxed and controlled. You can guarantee a safer product this way. If you look at the marijuana dispensaries in the Netherlands or California you will see that most of them sell marijuana alone and I haven't read about any cases of them selling products laced with other substances. Correct me if I'm wrong. It makes sense because they are a business -- people will not come back as repeat customers if the product is tainted or they get a bad reputation.
I understand your worry about legalization of all hard drugs. The problem is that it's not a good argument for keeping marijuana illegal. If it were, we could use the same argument for keeping alcohol illegal. And we know how that turned out.
You mention that case in Georgia. This same thing can happen when someone gets drunk or is simply mentally ill, and it does. Should we ban alcohol because of these examples? You see where I'm going with this. Life is full of risks and dangerous drugs in the wrong setting can amplify those risks. The solution to that problem is better training about how to identify and calm people who are ODing, not to keep drugs illegal and continue to maintain a costly and ineffective military-style war on people.
Law enforcement has a chip on its shoulder regarding this 'war on drugs' fiasco and that chip will become a boulder if drugs are legalized. The point I made about the case in Georgia is that the kid was stoned on something other than marijuana. Cops over reacted because they knew the guy was on drugs...had he just been drunk I do not see it ending the way that it did. People to my knowledge do not become psychotic on alcohol. But I am sure you die-hard marijuana advocates will disagree. Whatever if you want to use marijuana so badly I am sure legalization is not stopping you. Furthermore your likelihood of spending anytime in jail let alone getting arrested over marijuana use is almost nill so the odds are in your favor...not sure what the whole legalize it now hubbub is all about. Taxes you say? Regulation? I thought you pot smoking liberatarian types were for smaller government? It is bad enough that government makes money off of gambling but now it wants to make money on street drugs...(not that they aren't doing that already anyway) but really now. One last point...alcohol has never given me an unwanted secondary contact buzz...marijuana is not something the user can keep to themselves...I do not want to get a random drug test at work and fail because I was exposed to someone elses pot smoking. Children and others that do not like or want to smoke pot should not be exposed to the effects of your choice. Your rights end where mind begins.
You have yet to bring up one convincing point for continuing this failed War on Drugs. We can argue about the dangers of drugs all we want; the focus should be kept on the current War on Drugs. The question: is the damage done by the usage of drugs (something that is verifiably not stopped by prohibition) worse than the War on Drugs itself? Do you really believe that?
1. Law enforcement doesn't have a "chip on its shoulder" -- they are doing their jobs, to enforce drug prohibition. Once prohibition ends, law enforcement doesn't need to be involved. Any "chip" would end with time as attitudes change. But, honestly, that is your argument for keeping prohibition? Because police have a chip on their shoulders ? Give me a break.
2. You keep citing this case in Georgia, could you provide citations and medical sources about the autopsy? I've never once heard of a scientific case proving marijuana causes psychosis. I've only ever heard it through anecdotal evidence or anti-drug campaigns. It's a wonder the last three U.S. presidents got to where they are after being turned psychotic from smoking marijuana. Steve Jobs was one of the most functional psychotics i've seen. Almost every case I've read is someone who already had some undiagnosed mental illness prior to the marijuana usage. Many of them end up self medicating through marijuana.
3. Your argument about second hand smoke and failing a drug test has absolutely nothing to do with legalization. I agree that should not happen -- people should not be exposed to second hand smoke if they don't want to. It's the same as society agreeing that kids should not be forced to drink alcohol; it's common sense. But this second hand smoke scenario you describe can happen today, while drugs are illegal. Legalizing drugs does not change that scenario.
4. Alcohol may not give a secondary contact buzz, but it does affect other people. Stop trying to act like alcohol is some benign substance. It is far more dangerous than marijuana. How many people are killed by drunk driving each year? What about children killed in crashes involving alcohol? You're worried about second hand marijuana smoke. Please cite some statistics about all these people who are being harmed and killed by marijuana. Where are all these psychotic marijuana smokers being shot by police?
5. I believe a tax on the marijuana sale is reasonable because then we can use those to fund drug treatment centers, improve drug education, find new ways to stop addiction, etc. That is a far better way to spend the money instead of locking people up or putting drug convictions on their arrest record.
Read some more about alcohol prohibition. The parallels to the current situation are no mistake.
Dude get a grip...you are not reading my posts so this is the last I will have in reply to you. I have said for the third time that this guy in Georgia was said to be on a hard drug not marijuana and my point was that it would be a scene repeated if hard drugs were legalized. This was my concern about legalizing marijuana as it could easily usher in the legalization of all street drugs. That is all. Good day...and breathe deeply. LOL
you must be completely ignorant if you have never read any studies on the link between pychosis and pot, it is well known and well documenteted
Why on earth would drug dealers lace the CHEAPEST drug (marijuana) with other more expensive drugs and then (1) not tell the customer and (2) charge the same price as before.
It doesn't make any sense and it's bad business.
Also, most pot dealers only deal pot and even then most of that dealing is to support their own habit. Obviously, as you go up the chain of dealers to the bulk suppliers, they're dealing other drugs but "street level" suppliers usually only deal one drug so they idea that purchasing weed puts people in contact with people that sell harder drugs is ridiculous.
Because when they ended the alcohol prohibition cocaine was magically legal?
Terrible point.
Hell I bet you the drug in the case your referencing in Georgia was actually a legal drug... banned, but legal.
"This was my concern about legalizing marijuana as it could easily usher in the legalization of all street drugs"
hwwaaaahhh? um... that is not self-evident. you're arguing that marijuana functions as a gateway (to) drug... legalization? like lawyers and lawmakers are going to get hooked on legalizing; they just keep chasing after that first rush, having to legalize harder and harder drugs...
Ummm read my post before you start your ignorant Azzed rants. Cuntie

Pokémon Yellow Version: Special Pikachu Edition

It is only for GB. Pokémon Yellow is notable as it is the first of the series to allow Pokémon to walk alongside the player character, as well as having an Electric-type Pokémon being the starter Pokémon, as opposed to a Water-type, Fire-type, or Grass-type,
Pokémon Yellow is very similar to its predecessors, using the same locations and sequences of them, however, Pokémon Yellow expands upon the basis of the original pair to become more similar to the anime series. Much like Ash Ketchum's adventures in the Kanto region, the player character begins the game with a Pikachu, who grows more fond of the character over time and refuses to return to its Poké Ball, and has frequent run-ins with Jessie, James and Meowth. Additionally, the starter Pokémon of the original pair, Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle, can all be found in-game. Charmander is received from a poor trainer, Bulbasaur is received from nurses and Squirtle is received from Officer Jenny after defeating Lt. Surge in the Vermillion City gym.
Gym Leaders
Brock Pewter City | Misty Cerulean City | Lt. Surge Vermilion City | Erika Celadon City |
Koga Fuchsia City | Sabrina Saffron City | Blaine Cinnabar Island | Giovanni Viridian City |
Elite Four and Champion
Lorelei | Bruno | Agatha | Lance | Blue |
- Pokémon Yellow is the first game in the series to have only one starter Pokémon.
- Pokémon Yellow is the only game to have a pure Electric-type Pokémon as the version mascot.
- Pokémon Yellow is the only game to have a starter Pokémon that needs an Evolution Stone to evolve.
- It is impossible to complete the Pokédex without doing the Mew Glitch.
- The gym leaders' Pokémon's levels in Pokémon Yellow are generally higher than those in Pokémon Red/Blue.
- Pokémon Yellow is the first game to feature your starter following the player, the second being Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.
- Pokémon Yellow is the only game where Pikachu won't evolve, the only way to make it evolve is to trade it, evolve it, then send it back to Yellow.
- During the game, you are able to obtain Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle in different locations, so you are truly able to complete your Pokédex.
- it's very hard kicking off your game as the first leader is Brock and he may have ground-rock types.

Ramp Carbonara
I have really been enjoying the ramps, aka wild leeks, this spring and and up next is this ramp pasta done carbonara style. Carbonara is a simple pasta that traditionally consists of bacon, eggs, pecorino romano and pepper. The basic idea behind the carbanara pasta is that you cook the bacon in a pan, add the noodles and then pour the noodles into the egg and cheese mixture where the egg is 'cooked' and the cheese melts. Of course there are a lot of variations of this recipe and I often like to add seasonal ingredients like asparagus or zucchini and this time I added some wild leeks. I sauted the bottom white part of the ramps in the bacon grease and I mixed in the sliced green parts then I assembled the pasta at the end. I have to say that this is a truly amazing way to enjoy some of springs bounty!

Describes a situation faced by Mr. Ely Callaway, the 80-year-old founder, chairman, and CEO of Callaway Golf Co., in the fall of 1999. After a decade of stunning success with the marketing concept, Callaway suffered a significant loss and witnessed a steep decline in sales in 1998. Mr. Callaway had built a $800 million business by making a truly more satisfying product for the average golfer, making it pleasingly different from the competition and communicating the benefits to the consumer. The results in 1998 forced Mr. Callaway to reconsider the marketing program that had successfully supported the product until now.

Atomic Skintec Classic
A very simple, functional product. Atomic has nailed it here. Great kick, good glide, and no maintenance! Not a lot to say — they do what the manufactures says they do. Plain and simple. Full review
Atomic Skintec Classic
I went out for the first time on these skis a few days ago. I'm a recreational skier and on the trails almost daily, mostly using waxable skis. I found the Atomic skis great for grip on a fairly icy track, good glide, but watch out for lichen in the track. I do know that if a ski is waxed with klister the same can happen. I was very careful when first going over windfall on these skis. All seemed good; they did glide over windfall so I stopped worrying. Almost finished my loop, I hit some old man's… Full review
Salomon Vitane Pilot CF
I have loved these boots. I've been perfectly happy with these, until I looked down and realized the sole was delaminating from the topskin!! Bummer!! These boots have been great to ski in. Salomon knows how to make a boot that fits a woman's foot. I even bought Salomon downhill ski boots and love those. The narrower heel and spacious toe area make all the difference in fit. Most other brands don't fit this well. However, after only four seasons with not that much use, the sole is delaminating… Full review
Rossignol Men's BC X6
Very good light-medium-duty off-trail xcountry performance, poor lacing system. I have owned these boots for a few years, but only used them rigorously for one season. Although the performance is excellent for what they are designed to be (medium-duty off-trail xcountry) the very poor lacing system ruins this boot. This is the 5th Rossi nordic boot I have tried with this type of quick lacing/locking system and the 5th one that I hate. With older versions of this basic design I had trouble with releasing… Full review
Rottefella NNN BC Manual
Excellent off-trail xcountry binding. This setup is much more efficient at classic kick and glide than a 75mm binding. I would not choose the automatic binding if you plan on truly skiing off-trail. The auto bindings will ice up off-trail. The auto NNNBC bindings are probably fine for skiing on broken trails; such as snowmobile trails. I would recommend sizing up to the NNNBC Magnum binding, if your ski has a wide enough waist. The NNNBC Magnum will give you that much more stability; but it is… Full review
Rottefella NNN BC Magnum
Ultimate off-trail xcountry binding. When I say "xcountry" I specifically mean classic kick and glide skiing. This is without a doubt; the best off-trail stride and glide binding available: stable and efficient. This setup is much more efficient at classic kick and glide than a 75mm binding. Choose this binding over the automatic binding if you plan on truly skiing off-trail. The auto bindings will ice up off-trail. The auto NNNBC bindings are fine for skiing on broken trails; such as snowmobile… Full review
Alpina Alaska 75mm
Ultimate off-trail x-country boot. I have been an avid nordic skier for more than 30 years. My everyday skiing is off-trail x-country through rolling terrain (with the occasional steep climb and decent). Although I appreciate 75mm telemark equipment when I truly need it; I find it agonizingly inefficient compared to NNNBC for most of the skiing I do. Recently I have struggled to find the perfect boot. I have tried the Rossi BC line; like it; but not enough support. I have been using the Fischer… Full review
Fischer BCX 6
Boot materials and design are improving. I have owned this boot for a few years and loved the performance out of the box, but eventually had to abandon them. The older version of this boot (grey and black) has a serious design flaw. The flex point in the boot pinches and squeezes your foot (metatarsus). By the time I finally gave up on this boot my feet remained tender for a couple of weeks. The new model (brown) has an improved design and materials. Apparently (my close friend has a season on the… Full review
Madshus Epoch
Versatile off-trail xcountry ski. This ski is identical to the Karhu XCD 10th Mountain. This ski is marketed as a hybrid between a telemark and a xcountry ski. Perhaps the best way to review this ski is by comparing it to its two siblings: the Madshus Eon (Karhu XCD GT) and the Madshus Annum (Karhu XCD Guide). First of all, from my perspective, all of these skis are designed to be first and foremost off-trail, classic kick and glide xcountry skis. Yes, they do have a progressive sidecut; they… Full review

Wild Mushroom Fajitas
recipe by Shazzy
Long a symbol of longevity in Asia because of their health-promoting properties, shiitake mushrooms have been used medicinally by the Chinese for more than 6,000 years. More recently, their rich, smoky flavor has endeared them to American taste buds and these exotic hearty mushrooms can now be found in supermarket shelves across the U.S. throughout the year.
Like other mushrooms, these specialty mushrooms are as mysteriously unique as they are delicious. While often thought of as a vegetable and prepared like one, mushrooms are actually a fungus, a special type of living organism that has no roots, leaves, flowers or seeds.
Health Benefits
A symbol of longevity in Asia because of their health-promoting properties, Shiitake mushrooms have been used medicinally by the Chinese for more than 6,000 years. Now that their rich, smoky flavor has endeared them to American tastebuds, these exotic hearty mushrooms can be found in supermarket shelves across the U.S.
Invigorate Your Immune System
Recent studies have traced shiitakes' legendary benefits to an active compound contained in these mushrooms called lentinan. Among lentinan's healing benefits is its ability to power up the immune system, strengthening its ability to fight infection and disease. Against influenza and other viruses, lentinan has been shown to be even more effective than prescription drugs; it even improves the immune status of individuals infected with HIV, the virus that can cause AIDS.
Promote Optimal Health
Lentinan, which is technically classified as a polysaccharide and referred to as a branched beta-glucan, has also been shown to have anti-cancer activity. When lentinan was given for human gastric cancer, reticular fibers developed in tumor sites. Reticular cells, which are spread throughout the body in various tissues, are immune cells that have the ability to ingest (phagocytose) bacteria, particulate matter, and worn out or cancerous cells. When lentinan was administered, not only was there a proliferation of reticular cells in gastric tumor sites, but many T lymphocytes (another type of immune defender) were drawn to these cancer sites with the result that the cancer cell nests were fragmented and destroyed.
A Hearty Mushroom That's Good for Your Heart
A large number of animal studies conducted over the last ten years have shown that another active component in shiitake mushrooms called eritadenine lowers cholesterol levels-and this amazing compound lowers cholesterol no matter what types of dietary fats the lab animals are given. Even when lab animals are given dietary protein rich in methionine (an amino acid researchers have found causes an increase in cholesterol formation), eritadenine still lowers plasma cholesterol levels in a dose-dependent manner. In other words, the more eritadenine given, the more cholesterol levels drop.
Shiitake Mushrooms Found to be Top Food Source of Potent Antioxidant
L-ergothioneine, a powerful antioxidant, has been discovered in mushrooms, thanks to a new analytical method capable of identifying this antioxidant in plant material. In research presented at the 2005 American Chemical Society meeting in Washington, D.C., an American research team revealed that mushrooms contain higher concentrations L-ergothioneine than either of the two dietary sources previously believed to contain the most: chicken liver and wheat germ.
Testing mushrooms consumed in the U.S., the team found that shiitake, oyster, king oyster and maitake mushrooms contain the highest amounts of ergothioneine, with up to 13 mg in a 3-ounce serving. This equals forty times as much as is found in wheat germ.

One 'n Only Argan Oil Moisture Shampoo
Luz C.United StatesHairMedium BrownNormal HairOily HairFine or Thin HairChemically Treated HairInteresting Texture, But It WorksThe smells is great and it works well. The only thing is that it doesn't really lather. It has a texture similar to hair gel and I'm not used to that, so it's hard to tell if my hair is clean. But it sure does feel as small clean when my shower's over.
FYI: I pair this up with the conditioner and hair syrum.posted Jan 15, 2013Link to this post -

It smells great and left my hair feeling clean and soft for long road trip back home. Ordered after I returned home and have loved it since.posted Sep 18, 2012Link to this post
BethOregonHairLight BrownDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairDisappointingLove the conditioner and oil. The shampoo does suds up at all unless I use a huge amount of product. The bottle is mailed with the lid not on securely and both times it was mailed shampoo leaked out. The first time the bottle arrived empty all over the rest of the products I ordered. Ick! Once I got a ton of it on my hair I also didn't find that it gave my hair moisture.posted Jul 22, 2012Link to this post

Completely PARABEN FREE and sulfate free, which is huge, as parabens are estrogen receptors and found literally in every women's product on the market. Nice fresh scent of shampoo, lathers up nice, not terribly sudsy, but does not strip the hair. My hair has never looked so great!

Sorry for the inconvenience. However, here are some links to help you find the 1845 penny information you want, whether you are interested in selling, buying, or just learning more about U.S. large/eagle pennys. The following are 1845 penny auctions currently running on eBay. These are live auctions. Click on any of the links for more information. If there are no listings above, there may be no large cents available, or it could be a bug in the program. I recommend clicking over and searching for "1845 penny" or something more specific. The variety of coins, paper money, and tokens being auctioned every day on eBay is amazing. If you're wondering how much your large cent is worth, i.e. the value of an early American one-cent coin minted between 1793 and 1858, these eBay auctions are one of the best ways to get a true sense of the going prices. (For help judging the condition of your large cent, click here.) To sell your 1845 penny, you have two main options. The first is eBay or another online auction. Auctions have always been the best way to get the real value of your coins, without a coin dealer taking a cut. Selling on eBay (or eBay UK, eBay Canada, or eBay Australia) is easy. You just have to register, which is easy and painless. The disadvantage of selling coins on eBay is that it can take some time, especially if you have more than one coin to sell. The fastest way to cash out is to sell to a coin dealer. One national dealer I know is Jake's Marketplace. They're good folks and they give fair prices. But you may prefer to find a local dealer. By the way, before taking your collection to a dealer, you may want to get the most current and reliable price estimates for your coins. Invest the 10 bucks in this year's Black Book or Red Book Guide to U.S. Coin Values. They're both comprehensive, reliable sources for coin prices. Have Fun! Chris Whitten

Parks Canada Celebrates 100th Birthday
19 May 2011Parks Canada is celebrating it's groundbreaking 100-year anniversary this summer and there will be special events to mark the occassion at the various historic and scenic sites across Newfoundland and Labrador. That means lots of interesting things to see and do, all summer long, at some of the most beautiful and fascinating areas in the province. Read on for event info...
Storytelling events underway
8 Mar 2011Here in NL, we're proud to lay claim to a deep storytelling culture, and on Tuesday, the St. John's Storytelling Festival officially kicked off. The festival is running for 8 days, so you still have time to hear (and maybe tell) a few tales.
History Along the Coast
10 Jan 2011Rugged, wild and beautiful, the coastal communities of Brigus and Cupids will take you back in time. Rich in culture and history, the two towns are just a stone's throw from one another, and both are located just an hour outside of St. John's. Let the townspeople take you in as you explore heritage that has been preserved for hundreds of years. And see for yourself what we've been celebrating.
Of all the mariners who set to sea in Newfoundland and Labrador over the centuries, none is more justly famous than Captain Bob Bartlett of Brigus. A noted explorer in his own right, and perhaps the greatest ice pilot who ever lived, Bartlett guided American Commodore Robert Peary to within 150 miles of the North Pole in 1909, at which point Peary set out with one servant to finish the job on foot. Bartlett won numerous awards and spent many summers exploring the Arctic, and had a gift for self-promotion that in the first half of the 20th century made him one of the most famous men alive.
The most easterly point of land in North America
10 Jan 2011Located at the most easterly point of land in North America, Cape Spear is where you can see nature at its most beautiful and wild; tranquil and ferocious; it all depends on the day you visit. The site is surrounded by spectacular scenery and wildlife such as whales, seabirds and icebergs in season.
In 1834, construction began on the first lighthouse, with a foghorn added in 1878. The light was first lit by oil, with acetylene adopted in 1916, and electricity in 1930. In 1955, the dipodic system was moved to a new light tower, not far from the original lighthouse. The original lighthouse is the oldest surviving lighthouse in Newfoundland with the original building and the lightkeeper's residence restored to the period of 1939, and shows how a lightkeeper and his family might have lived there during that time.
St. John's Time
10 Jan 2011St. John's Time is an 11-day festival taking in the Royal St. John's Regatta, the George Street Festival, the St. John's Downtown Buskers Festival and the Newfoundland and Labrador Folk Festival. The festival starts in late July and goes until early August.
Thousands descend on George Street every year to take in the annual George Street Festival - one of the biggest and friendliest patio parties in the world. This event always precedes the Royal St. John's Regatta. The Royal St. John's Regatta is a 1-day event and is the oldest, longest running sporting event in North America! This 1-day festival draws in the vicinity of 60,000 people to Quidi Vidi Lake in the heart of St. John's to watch the races and to try their luck on various ticket spins, or just sit back and relax and take in the sights. This event is always the first Wednesday in August.
Great Finds on the Avalon
10 Jan 2011Newfoundlanders and Labradorians are known worldwide for their hospitality. Making your own way to (and through) Newfoundland and Labrador is sometimes exactly what's called for, but if you're interested in travelling here without having to worry about the details, there are many package tour operators that take care of arrangements for you.
CapeRace Cultural Adventures and Ocean Quest Adventures are just two of many tour operators that let you truly experience and explore the majestic beauty of our province, our rich culture and heritage and, maybe even, our ocean floors.
Ocean Quest Adventure Resort offers a 7-night multi-adventure vacation package on Newfoundland and Labrador's Avalon Peninsula. CapeRace Cultural Adventures is a self-guided eco-cultural tour that features exclusive-use, serve-yourself accommodations at heritage houses in St. John's, Heart's Delight and Bonavista
"Five days of hiking the East Coast Trail transformed us into proselytizing zealots. Now we're the ones eagerly asking, 'Have you hiked the East Coast Trail?' hoping for an opportunity to tell all about it." Forget the West Coast Trail, travel writers Craig and Kathy Copeland discover that when it comes to big Canadian hiking adventures, Newfoundland's east coast is the place to go.
Mistaken mystique
21 Nov 2010Mistaken Point is a remarkable place. A beautiful, rocky headland at the tip of the Avalon Peninsula bearing the fossilized remnants of ancient creatures more than half a billion years old. Etched onto two shelves of stone, these cryptic messages from the distant past were once primitive animals living at the bottom of the ocean. The volcanic ash that killed them, also preserved them
This Vancouver Sun article talks about a recently discovered cemetery in Cupids, NL, which is thought to be the oldest English burial ground in Canada. We also happen to have the oldest burial site in all of North America, located at L'Anse Amour, Labrador. It dates back 7,500 years — 3,000 years before the pyramids of Egypt.
On the hunt for pirate treasure
11 Nov 2010Is the greatest pirate of all time from NL? Newfoundland and Labrador's infamous pirate, Peter Easton, who plundered foreign ships sailing the Atlantic Ocean in the early 17th century, may well be the most notorious pirate of all time. CTV's W5 went diving for evidence off the coast of Conception Bay, NL.
The November issue of National Geographic Traveler Magazine rated the Avalon Peninsula of Newfoundland and Labrador at the very top of 99 coastal tourism destinations in the world, beating out popular seaside travel spots in Wales, New Zealand, Hawaii, Italy, Australia and other provinces within Canada.
The magazine said that Newfoundland and Labrador has struck the right balance in developing its tourism industry without destroying what makes it unique, and noted it has welcomed the economic benefits of a strong offshore oil and natural gas industry while maintaining its "stunning natural and cultural integrity". The article also noted the unspoiled scenery, revitalization of waterfronts, rural communities, coastal hiking trails, colourful birdlife and seafaring heritage as among the components which make the Avalon Peninsula "one of the best-kept tourism secrets."
Just back from: Newfoundland
21 Oct 2010CNN's travel reporter has been charmed by our "Viking history, stunning rocky landscapes and warm, welcoming locals." Read all about her experience exploring remote, wild and beautiful, Newfoundland and Labrador.
The love keeps pouring in for St. John's and NL. This travel feature appeared in Britain's widely read Daily Mail newspaper. It highlights some of the similarities between Newfoundlanders and their friends across the pond... most notably, an affinity for the longest running TV soap in the world...

Geographic Coverage: United States
Time Period:
- 1990
Date of Collection:
- 1990-09--1991-02
Unit of Observation: individual
Universe: The population of the continuous United States, aged 12 and older, living in households.
Data Types: survey data
Data Collection Notes:
Data were collected by Research Triangle Institute, Research Triangle Park, NC, and prepared for release by National Opinion Research Center, Chicago, IL.
For selected variables, statistical imputation was performed following logical imputation to replace missing responses. Unique code values were assigned to the recency-of-use variable when such logical imputation occurred. These code values are readily identifiable by the phrase "... LOGICALLY IMPUTED" or "... LOGICALLY ASSIGNED" in the code value descriptions.
Data were weighted based on the three stages of sampling that were used. The person-level sampling weight is the product of the three-stage sampling weights, each of which is equal to the inverse of the selection probability for that stage. Adjustments were made to compensate for nonresponse and sampling error. Adjustments also included trimming sample weights to reduce excessive weight variation and a post-stratification to Census population estimates.
To protect the anonymity of respondents, all variables that could be used to identify individuals have been deleted from the public use file.
For some drugs that have multiple names, questions regarding the use of that drug may be asked for each distinct name. For example, even though methamphetamine, methedrine and desoxyn are the same drug, their use was measured in three separate variables.
Sample: Multistage area sample design with an oversampling of young people, minorities, and the Washington, DC, Metropolitan Statistical Area.
Data Source:
personal interviews, including self-enumerated answer sheets for questions on drugs
Extent of Processing: ICPSR data undergo a confidentiality review and are altered when necessary to limit the risk of disclosure. ICPSR also routinely creates ready-to-go data files along with setups in the major statistical software formats as well as standard codebooks to accompany the data. In addition to these procedures, ICPSR performed the following processing steps for this data collection:
- Performed consistency checks.
- Standardized missing values.
- Created online analysis version with question text.
- Checked for undocumented or out-of-range codes.
Original ICPSR Release: 1993-02-14
Version History:
- 2013-05-06 Data collection instrument released.
- 2008-07-25 New files were added. These files included one or more of the following: Stata setup, SAS transport (CPORT), SPSS system, Stata system, SAS supplemental syntax, and Stata supplemental syntax files, and tab-delimited ASCII data file. The variable CASEID was also added to the dataset.

We are just entering our 14th year in the gallery world! That is hard to believe, but true. It is definitely with gratitude that we move forward and continue to represent such an amazing group of talented artists. The summer has flown by so quickly, that it is difficult to realize that we are heading in to fall….and, yes, placing orders for the HOLIDAY SEASON. Yikes…stop the madness!!
Our biggest news of the year, involves all the changes that have occurred at 401 Second Street. Joe Christensen and Jude Ryan Reiling moved their clay studio to the lower level of the building…great for them as they are working on one level and have so much more space. Great for us…the noise and dust is located below us. Then, Robbin Firth, fiber artist, moved her studio to the same level as the gallery. She and her husband, Harry own Heartfelt Silks, specializing in the art of felting using innovative wooden tools that Harry creates in his home workshop. The addition of Robbin's colorful work, as well as her class offerings has added new energy and a new aspect of life to SEASONS. If you haven't visited the studios in their new locations, now would be the moment!
In the meantime, we have added some other amazing artists to the gallery. I am just going to highlight a few…hoping that will lure you in to see new works by all of the artists we represent. Jill Van Sickle is a wonderful acrylic artist that brings a fresh and feminine touch to the space. Her work is very organic, colorful and has a certain abstraction that is amazing. Jill is going to be paired with glass artist, Nolan Prohaska for our show in October. It will be dynamite! We have also added jeweler and two dimensional artist Melody Tudisco to the mix. Mel is edgy, bold, and unique in both areas of her work. Her copper and acrylic wall pieces are textural in nature and have a lovely impact on the eye. Over the summer, we also added glass artist Michael Hopko with his series of fresh water fish…a big hit with our customer base. In addition, we have added Karen Sebesta, an accomplished ceramic artist from Hudson. Her southwest influenced work is a beautiful, authentic addition to the gallery. We also brought back Dust Furniture…it feels very much at home and we love having it. Vincent Lehman, the artist, has added a new line that helps give the same feel, but at a lower price point. If you love the whimsy of this work, you might want to check out the new pieces. Other new jewelers include: Terri Logan, Jill Smith, Susan Panciera, and Catherine Schroenner, to name but a few.
Many of our artists continue to meet with national acclaim. Melissa Belanger, a Hudson resident and "artistic director" at SEASONS over the years, has been invited to be a featured artist at this years "Ghoultide Gathering" on September 28th in Chelsea, Michigan. This is a BIG DEAL as the artists are selected individually. One of her charming Halloween images made the cut for their postcard which adds to the excitement. We wish her well and know she will have a great show! In addition, Marian Angelica, a wonderful potter we know and love has received much recognition throughout the year, as has Nolan Prohaska (glass blower), Barbara Bend (fiber artist) and Beth Novak (jeweler). It is a pleasure to represent these, as well as so many other fine artists.

The upgradable, recyclable Bloom laptop concept
Stanford's simple-to-disassemble Bloom laptop concept is designed for easy recycling
Article Summary
It's a given that we will one day be discarding our present laptop computers. It's also a given that e-waste is currently a huge problem, that looks like it's only going to get worse. While most of the materials in a laptop can be recycled, all of those pieces of glass, metal, plastic and circuitry are stuck together pretty tight, and require a lot of time and effort to separate. What is needed are laptops that are designed to be taken apart, for easy recycling – that's why a group of graduate students from Stanford University made one.

1) The characteristic of not being able to "tone down" one's personality. When a situation calls for a relaxed, collected, and in particular, calm manners, a person who is "too much" will show up after ten rounds of tequila-shots and make an excessive number ill-received jokes that s/he stole from Comedy Central Present's not being able to chill the fuck out; or 2) not being able to chill the fuck out
i.e., Philip is "too much" man, I can't fucking stand to be around him before noon, or after 8pm. I mean, he's cool when I'm drunk and shit, but other than that, why can't he relax.
i.e., Tell that kid to stop being too much, we're at my little brother's barmitzvah
