The recently discovered ancient tunnels of Buenos Aires are one of the city's best kept secrets. Depart for Plaza de Mayo, the city's founding site and genuine starting point of Buenos Aires' urban development. Next is trendy San Telmo, a former enclave for local aristocracy. In San Telmo you'll get to visit one of the recently unearthed ancient subterranean tunnels, a part of a 3,000 sqm. labyrinth below the streets of San Telmo, made up of a long corridor with vaulted ceilings and display cabinets exhibiting many items and utensils recovered during the excavation. From ancient times, many myths have been created around the tunnels: people said they witnessed secret encounters, disappearances, murders or even political conspiracies.
Other areas that are included in your tour include La Boca, (which was strongly shaped by the working class Italian immigrants, with its make shift houses made from scrap materials found in local shipyards), Puerto Madero - Buenos Aires' latest and most sophisticated neighborhood, and La Recoleta, where a short stop is made at the gorgeous Plaza San Martín, the Basílica de Nuestra Señora del Pilar, (the city's second oldest church), and the celebrated Recoleta Cemetery, an imposing labyrinth of ornate graves and mausoleums where some of the most important characters of Argentina's political and cultural life (including Eva Peron) are buried.

A visit to Buenos Aires would be incomplete without a tango show. Tonight enjoy a tango show along with dinner at La Esquina de Carlos Gardel. A shared pick up from your hotel to the tango show is provided.
Watch as professional Tango dancers take over the room; sliding heels along the floor and whipping their feet while they enchanting the audience with the romance and heat of this dance. The Argentine Tango has drawn its influences from all regions and settings, and is famous for its fusion of styles and combination of world dance techniques. Embrace this authentic dance in the place where it originated, as you enjoy dinner and drinks. Experience the unique sexual magnetism of the tango performed by some of the best Tango dancers and singers. The dance's origins are traced back to the 1880's, and its birthplace being the suburbs, account for its deep malevolent, sexual and violent contents.

While watching this spectacular show, let yourself be spoiled with the subherb dinner service and the most delightful typical Argentine and international dishes.

"We are back. We did have a wonderful time with our daughter and I certainly had no reason at all for being at all nervous that things would not go smoothly. Everyone associated with our time in Iguazu Falls was helpful, more than pleasant and always on time. I thought originally that we could manage such a trip on our own. But when we got there and saw the hassles we would have run into with the visas, border crossings, transportation and such, I realized that going the way we did was the wise choice. Absolutely we would travel with you again. And if anyone asks about the best way to see that part of the country, I would not hesitate to recommend KT. "

"Well, Cindy, we've been home for a week but I can't stop replaying every day of our wonderful holiday in my head! It was all that I had hoped for and MORE! We enjoyed all of the locations we visited – the beauty of the landscapes, the sight of wildlife, the rich culture & interesting history of Argentina & the outgoing, positive attitude of its people. Our guides were terrific – so friendly & knowledgeable & helpful & enthusiastic! We had no delays or difficulties & our accommodations were outstanding. Have I mentioned that it was a FABULOUS holiday??!!! My thanks to you for coordinating, booking, confirming and generally taking care of our requests in planning our adventure. "

"Fabulous trip to Machu Picchu, Cusco and Lima. Trip of a lifetime with a sensational group of guides, drivers, and transfer staff! Loved the Sanctuary Lodge! A must! Thank you, Nella Huaringa, for planning this amazing journey! Thanks for making sure we didn't miss a thing on our itinerary even when we lost a travel day, due to a broken airplane that turned back midair, on our way to Lima. We appreciate your service above and beyond. "

"Wow! All my life, I have planned and organized our trips, requiring considerable research and contact time--not to mention, most significantly, all the stress involved at each destination to make sure all connections are made. This time, I put it in the hands of some extremely capable people--and sat back and relaxed. And relax I did! We were booked into full-service, quality accommodations at all times; our transport and tour guidance were all on an individual, private basis, except where public transportation was in order; and--most valuable to us--we were met and assisted through all travel/hotel connections. We truly felt pampered. At one point, in fact, we had a problem with an immigration paper that we had lost, and a Kensington representative personally accompanied us through the whole process of replacing it--even though we were officially "on our own" that day. That's what makes the difference--the responsibility and accountability toward clients. Kudos to Kensington and to our representative, Brandi Merchant. We are already planning more travel and see no reason to look any further than to an agency that has earned our trust. "

"We had a wonderful time on our trip. The accommodations were all great. The guides and drivers were all very pleasant and knowledgeable. We were very happy with our choice of destinations and with the way the trip was organized. It was a lot of flying in two weeks but well worth it. Erika was able to accommodate a short-notice addition (Nazca Lines) to our trip which we appreciated. Thank you Erika for your help. Great trip!!"

"I know it's silly to give all 10's, obviously every trip has it's ups and downs, but if it hadn't been for our Kensington Tours planning, guides and drivers we would have been lost! It was wonderful to be out in a strange new environment yet know we had a safety net and a friendly face. The places we visited were awesome but I think we'll remember most the people that we met. Thank you and I'll send photos soon! Sincerely, Christina Adams"

Fujiyama Green
Fujiyama Green
WFor Women
Item #
- Design House: Succes De Paris
- Fragrance Notes: a blend of citrus, sweet florals, green tea, sweet woods and bay leaves.
- Year Introduced: 2001
- Recommended Use: casual
No reviews written for this product
This MIGHT be good for a young girl that doesn't want a stronger smelling cologne. I did not like it at all! It has an odd smell that i can't even describe. I suppose it's a good thing that it isn't very strong. Keep looking….
Written by Bonnie on April 08, 2014Read Review details ►
Re: Fujiyama Green A fabulous fragrance ( if you like the classic green tea scent, very comparable to Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea ) and very affordable ( even less expensive than EA's GT ) ... BUT! The scent - in both of these fragrances - evaporates within 15-30 minutes so I'd never buy either one again, solely for this reason. The closest fragrance to this type of scent that I've found is Tommy Girl by Tommy Hilfiger. It's more expensive but it's worth it. One liberal spraying in the morning and you're good to go all day without any re-application.

Fujiyama Green is a very fresh citrus scent at first and then dries down into a nice clean modest scent. After an hour it's perfect for closed in areas where you don't want to offend anyone.
Written by Karen on March 02, 2010Read Review details ►
Fujiyama Green starts off with a citrusy note and calms down to a scent reminiscent of Tone soap. (the original yellow bar) I would say that it's a fresh, clean scent. I recommend it.
Written by Carlito La Voz on February 02, 2010Read Review details ►
Fujiyama Green is a very strong citrus scent at first and then dries down into a light powdery scent. The scent doesn't last long on skin, longer on clothing though. It's a nice light scent for just about anyone and not likely to offend anyone. Nice price.

Donovan International is a power to be reckoned with in the dazzling and cutthroat worldwide gem trade -- and is therefore a target for the murderous greed of unscrupulous competitors. Though a shrewd businesswoman, Honor Donovan has been effectively shut out of the dangerous family enterprise by the Donovan males -- until her favorite brother, Kyle, mysteriously vanishes along with a fortune in stolen amber.
Now, linking up with "fishing guide" Jake Mallory -- whose previous association with the Donovans has bred mistrust and suspicion -- Honor sets out for the Pacific Northwest in search of answers. But old wars and new politics have lured ruthless, high-stakes players from around the globe into a deadly game. And suddenly, elusive trust can be the only salvation -- and death the penalty for deceit -- if Honor and Jake hope to survive the perilous intrigues surrounding a breathtaking lost Czarist treasure known as the Amber Room ...

Seeing Gary Kelley work is one of the most amazing things I had happen when I was in school, this is a can't miss for you guys who might be on the fence about attending the second one. Add Manchess to the mix? Holy crap!!
Well actually, both events seem like a can't miss
Great to meet you this weekend Dan & Irene, and thanks for making these opportunities available.
July 26th, 2006 #10
See, it's events like these that make me realize that I live in the wrong city. To anyone debating whether or not to spend the spare change for a ticket, I've flown out from Chicago for the first 2 Art Out Louds and it was worth every penny. Fantastic set of artists there... I would have loved to see Bennett paint, but making it out to these just ain't in the cards.
Irene, Dan, Greg, you guys put on a hell of a show.

I believe the bulk of Lockwood's work is done in Painter, with some adjusting etc done in PS. I'm sure someone who knows better than I can answer for sure.

My beautiful wife!
Greg Manchess' work in progress. I don't know how I only ended up with one shot of your painting! Where you were, and the people around you, I must have not been able to get more shots. This one came together so fast!
Tons of fun and I learned a lot. I will have to see if my schedule lets me get to the next one. Definitely worth the trek from Arizona.

Don't overlook the lowly ottoman; you might trip
Compact, affordable and versatile, the footstool shouldn't be overlooked
Mark Mulligan / The Herald
Carole and Pete Falleen use ottomans throughout their Whidbey Island home. Only one of the five ottomans pictured actually stays in the room full-time.
Michael O'Leary / The Herald
Group three ottoman "cubes" in a row for effect (and as a pet perch for people-watching). They can be moved all over for extra seating, used as coffee tables, and, if you find the right type, used for extra storage.
Make way for the ottoman.
This is the perfect furniture: Easy to move. Affordable. Comfy.
Ottomans have come a long way since Dick Van Dyke tripped over one in the opening scene of the 1960s TV sitcom.
The once lowly ottoman -- aka a hassock or footstool -- has emerged as a centerpiece with form and function. They store stuff, flip over as trays and double as coffee tables.
Even so, these armless, backless thingamajigs still get taken for granted.
"They're the afterthoughts when you go out and buy furniture, and it's the thing you actually wind up using," said Pete Falleen, a retired Boeing production manager.
He uses all five ottomans scattered throughout his Whidbey Island home.
"I use them to put trays on," he said, "and my feet."
Think of it as healthy loafing.
"It's good for you. That's what we learned as stewardesses," said his wife, Carole, who worked for Pan American Airways. "The worst circulation for people's bodies is the sitting position. It is much better circulation for people to stick their legs out and have them propped up. When we'd come off a flight, we'd flop down and put our feet up."
The Falleens, now Windermere Real Estate brokers, rely on ottomans when entertaining grandkids, friends and clients.
"They expand your seating capacity without having to have a lot of chairs around," Carole Falleen said.
Ottomans are a cheap fix. Fifty dollars buys a decent ottoman at discount stores, often in an array of colors and fabrics. Or you can spend $500 for a high-grade leather square.
Pretty much anything goes. Ottomans are tufted, knitted, skirted, studded, sequined -- even hairy. Some makers are leaving the fur on the cowhide and dyeing it into different patterns and colors, said interior designer Heidi Beegle, owner of H. Beegle & Associates in Edmonds.
Ottomans are often ottomen. "I have 'ganged' them," Beegle said, "taken several small cubes and added them together in a longer line for a coffee table."
She said storage ottomans are especially popular in rooms with limited space to stash linens and toys. Beegle, a designer since 1981, has seen the ottomans expand to just about every room in the house and even on the patio.
"It's so versatile," she said.
The word pays tribute to the Ottoman Turks, who covered footstools with ornate fabrics. From there, the ottoman made its way to Europe and beyond.
American settlers liked its practicality, and furniture designers cashed in by matching colors and fabrics with sofas. Then along came Dick Van Dyke and great rooms and giant TVs and …
The rest is history in the making.

Michael Buble Biography & News
Michael Buble Details
|Official site
About Michael Buble
Michael Buble manages to Let it Go (Updated 06/12/2014)
If you're Michael Buble and you've already posted covers of everything from Kylie Minogue's "Can't Get You Out of my Head" to Maroon 5's "Moves Like Jagger" on your Instagram account, how exactly do you up your game? The answer, it seems, is a cover of "Let It Go" backed by a full string orchestra.
Buble's Instagram followers were treated to a snippet of the anthem from Disney's "Frozen" back on May 13. The performance, as it were, was the result of fans being able to vote on the songs he uses as his backstage warm-up. Unfortunately, it only showed about 15 seconds of the performance and cut off before Buble hit the soaring high note of the song's chorus. What a tease!!
Buble recently took his very first tour of New Zealand, which kicked off at Vector Arena. Fans were treated to two stages, pyrotechnics, a 13-piece jazz band and dazzling graphics. The shows also followed his 14-city Australian tour, where fans and critics raved over the visuals, high production values and Buble's audience interaction.
Buble made headlines Down Under when he knocked out a tooth during a show at Sydney's Allphone Arena by hitting himself with the microphone. The singer was performing "Haven't Met You Yet" when the incident took place. After the gig he tweeted a photo from the dentist's chair, and the tooth was back in place for his show the next evening.
Buble resumes the North American leg of his world tour with two shows in Vancouver on June 19 and June 20.
Buble still riding top of the charts (Updated June 26, 2013)
A lot of youngsters take an interest in music, and Michael Bublé was no different. But his introduction to the music of the swing era came not through music lessons, but via his grandfather, who filled young Michael's ears with everything from Ella Fitzgerald to Frank Sinatra while he was growing up in Burnaby, British Columbia. That early exposure gave way to a whole new world of sound, and in turn led to Michael playing gigs with several local bands. But the best was yet to come…
While still a teen, Bublé won the Canadian Youth Talent Search, released several independent albums, and performed on cruise ships, in hotel lounges and even in a traveling musical revue titled "Swing" that went across the U.S. Still, it seemed success was ever-elusive for Bublé – at least until his luck changed at the turn of the century.
Bublé's introduction to Grammy Award-winning producer and record executive David Foster proved lucrative for both men. Bublé had an outlet for his music and Foster produced an album that entered the To 10 in Canada, the United Kingdom and South Africa and reached No. 1 in Australia. It sparked a plethora of awards, TV cameos and a tour that officially introduced 'Boo-blay' to the world. His latest release, "To Be Love," bowed on April 15, 2013 at the top of the Billboard 200, his fourth-consecutive number-one album on the chart.
About Michael Buble
"Fever" singer Michael Buble appeared on the music scene in 2003 with the release of his self-titled debut. Producers were unsure of how to market his unique sound and type of music but the album peaked at number one in Australia, although it had marginal success in the United States. Things took a turn for Buble, however, with the release of his album "It's Time" in 2005. His second album featured the number one single on the Billboard Adult Contemporary Tracks, "Home," which garnered amazing success and sparked tremendous demand for Michael Buble concert tickets.

If ever you've been working with a build.xml file or some Jelly script and found yourself a little restricted by all those pointy brackets, or found it a bit wierd using XML as a scripting language and wanted something a little cleaner and more straight forward, then maybe Ant scripting with Groovy might be what you're after.
Groovy has a helper class called
AntBuilder which makes the scripting of Ant tasks really easy; allowing a real scripting language to be used for programming constructs (variables, methods, loops, logical branching, classes etc). It still looks like a neat concise version of Ant's XML without all those pointy brackets; though you can mix and match this markup inside your script. Ant itself is a collection of jar files. By adding them to your classpath, you can easily use them within Groovy as is. We believe using
AntBuilder leads to more concise and readily understood syntax.
Below are some examples (most taken from Groovy's own AntBuilder tests) which demonstrate:
- the use of Ant inside Groovy using the AntBuilder DSL notation
- a demo of iterating through an Ant FileSet using
- that normal variables can be used to pass state into the Ant tasks and that Groovy code can be embedded anywhere in the markup.
Compiling and running a Java file:
Sniffing around ...
Using the joint compiler
Here is a small build file which uses the joint compiler to compile Groovy and Java source files together, and put them in WEB-INF/classes:

Arlington's vibrant core
The city's decision to revitalize its downtown serves as a model

Peter Merceri of Arlington, a semi-retired building engineer, prepares to pull away from the curb Friday along Olympic Avenue in a 12-cylinder 1990 Jaguar JVS convertible. Merceri said the car, built in England, is one of only 700 made.
Dan Bates / The Herald
From left, David Voyles, Eddie Taylor and Scott SchenkVonStofferburg, all of Arlington, relax in the shade of The Gazebo at Legion Park on Olympic Avenue in Arlington on Friday. Veterans of the Vietnam War, the men provide friendly and interesting conversation for an out-of-towner. The park contains memorials for Arlington's citizens who lost their lives in wars.
Today, city officials and business owners believe the revitalization of Arlington's downtown main street helped the city weather the economic recession, boost community pride and even attract industry to town.
Olympic Avenue is where people gather to attend public meetings, participate in local festivals and otherwise shop, eat and do business.
"Prior to the project, our main street was in dire need of help," said David Boulton, owner of Flowers by George, a longtime floral shop on Olympic Avenue. "It didn't function well and it looked bad. We were desperate for a change."
In Mountlake Terrace, city officials are about to embark on a similar revitalization project designed to create jobs, offer affordable housing and reduce the need for cars in the downtown area.
Arlington city spokeswoman Kristin Banfield believes the project will help the south Snohomish County city.
"Arlington's project did exactly what we thought it would," Banfield said. "The business owners, the city and the community stepped up to make our downtown core better. I run into people all the time who want to tell me what a nice downtown we have. With thousands of people on the Centennial Trail right alongside Olympic, we know that many stop here for lunch and other services."
For about $4 million, Arlington replaced its water, sewer and storm water lines under Olympic Avenue. A block at a time, the city built a new roadway with new curbs, gutters and sidewalks, planted trees and erected new street lighting.
"We even got new trash cans," Boulton said. "The main street project kicked off our campaign to encourage people to shop locally, including our farmers market. It was the start of a new era for our city."
The investment of tax revenue paid off, Banfield said.
"You concentrate on your streets and the return is investment by business," Banfield said. "In turn, that attracts manufacturing because companies like the quality of life we have here. We've had ups and downs during the past six years, but Arlington is in a good place right now."
Mountlake Terrace and Arlington are very different cities.
Arlington, in north Snohomish County, is about twice as old, has an airport and was built on farming and logging. Mountlake Terrace, along the King County line, remains a suburban bedroom community of Seattle, with pockets of retail shopping and services.
However, the outcomes of those cities' main street projects should be similar, said Shane Hope, community and economic development director for Mountlake Terrace.
The city plans to rebuild some failing streets such as 56th Avenue W., from 230th to 236th streets; 232nd Street SW, from 56th to 58th avenues; and 236th Street SW, from 56th to the transit center along I-5. The work includes underground power lines, wider sidewalks, bike lanes, trees and new street lights.
The city is encouraging the construction in the downtown core of multi-use, multi-level buildings, with retail businesses on the ground floor and residential units above, Hope said.
If all goes well, estimates show that Terrace's revitalized downtown area could support 1,400 new jobs, Hope said. The $12 million project is to be paid for by city and state transportation funds and grants.
"The City Council developed the Town Center Plan in 2007, but the recession knocked out any new development," Hope said. "Now we have one new multi-use building finished and two more in the works. We believe the main street project here is going to turn the tide for Mountlake Terrace."
The goal is to begin street construction in 2015, Hope said.

The Blitzboks beat England 14-10 at the Wellington Sevens to finish top of Pool B.
South Africa trailed 5-0 at the break, but took the lead when Mark Richards scored a try early in the second half. Branco du Preez then beat three defenders to give his side a nine-point cushion.
England scored their second try in the final minute of the match, but the Blitzboks secured the kick-off, won a penalty and booted the ball into touch.
Earlier in the day, Cornal Hendricks scored a brace in South Africa's 43-0 hammering of the Cook Islands in Wellington.
Paul Treu's charges shot to a 19-0 half-time lead thanks to tries by Hendricks, Steven Hunt and Boom Prinsloo. Frankie Horne scored soon after the restart while Hendricks added his second two minutes in. Cecil Afrika and Paul Delport added further tries to complete the rout.
The Blitzboks also recorded a 21-0 win over the United States of America. Afrika scored a brace while Hunt also got his name on the scoresheet.

I think we renounced our rights to Landry and Marco a while back for some move.

I think we renounced our rights to Landry and Marco a while back for some move.
"we might make dollars, but we don't necessarily make sense"
"always be sincere....whether you mean it or not"
We've lost masses of veteran leadership, no chance we make the playoffs next season.
Whether or not we make the playoffs, this team is going to be fun and competitive next year. It's going to be a fun team to watch next year, no matter the result.
Maybe we could send Warrick and Henry for Rush. The warriors get 2 expirings and they were looking at Landry so it seems they want a Backup PF.
If we have this roster I think we make waves.
Vasquez, Rivers, Roberts
Gordon, Rush, Rivers
Amino, Thomas, Miller
Davis, Anderson, Smith
Lopez, Whiteside, Bowles (Bowles is our bubble boy)
We can make the playoffs with this team if we play up to our potential Aminu could be a lock down defender we know E.J is a scoring machine when healthy and honestly Vasquez is better than J.Jack. J.smith is better then alot of people think(only true hornets fans know that) AD23 is small right now but that doesn't mean he cant be successful Ex: Marcus camby, Kevin Garnet, and Tim Duncan (he's a better athlete then all 3) Ryan Anderson,A.Rivers, and Robin Lopez will fit it very good and get their minutes...I feel D.Mill will become a better james jones....I think we will be fine.
I don't see warrick staying on the team...I really hope X.Henry comes on strong because he has alot of potential and he is only 21
Don't expect too much from Henry. I think Hornets staff know they are limited this year with Lewis's contract. Looking ahead to 2013-2014...
PG: Vasquez, Rivers
SG: Gordon
SF: Aminu, Miller
PF: Davis, Anderson, Thomas
C: Lopez, Smith
That is 10 players signed for a total of 40 million leaving 20 million for next year's class. Could be increased to almost 24 million if don't pick up Aminu's option. Add 1-2 studs to these 10 and 2 draft picks and can start approaching contending status.
That means a lot of things have to go right. EJ has to actually play, Aminu has to develop into a lock down defender and knock down open shots, Rivers has to be able to sufficiently plays at the 1 and stay healthy, Davis has to be a difference maker (at least on the defensive side) from Day 1, etc.
I'm not saying any of these things are going to happen. But if the majority of them do, a low seed is not out of question. That's why I said peak, and not projection.

"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
I hope we look at Delfino
When A.Rivers become a better facilitator this team will be dominant because both him and EJ can penetrate and our bigs can bring others bigs away from the paint with their shooting ability. If we plan on being a lock down defense I think we should start A.Rivers E.J Aminu AD23 and RoLo but if we're trying to be a offense dominated team I say Vasquez Ej Ryan Anderson AD23 and Jason Smith(who is wildly underated)
I really hope Henry steps up this year as a back up 2 or 3 ! He has that potential! I believe in his shooting ability with his form. He could shoot that corner 3 for us and throw some fouls. Nice for a back up.
I believe in you X, but it's up to you !!!

I think we sign one of 3 players to a 1-yr contract as a backup SG with our current cap situation. In order of preference: Michael Redd, Willie Green, or Roger Mason.
