|Port Royale 3 - Achievement Guide
XboxAchievements.com - Every Point Counts
There are 61 achievements with a total of 1350 points.
|Hypocritical (10 points)
|Pray 10 times
This needs to be done at the church. Every port has a church so all you need to do is make sure your ship is docked or you have a building in town. Highlight the church and you will see an option to pray. Do this 10 times and the achievement is yours.
|As you wish (10 points)
|10 tasks fulfilled
Tasks are offered in any port from the Town Palace, Tavern, or Church. Depending on what building you select, determines the type of task. Tasks include importing a certain number of a certain type of good, building certain types of buildings, rescuing people or items lost at sea or simply buying goods off a merchant or pirate.
|Master of Benders (10 points)
|Visit all 60 taverns
To visit a tavern, enter the town by docking a ship or having a building already established, then highlight the tavern (they are the same structure in every town and are usually placed by the docks) and press to open the tavern menu. (Be sure you have opened the tavern menu and not a nearby building's menu.) You aren't required to do anything other than open the tavern menu. There are 60 towns on the map so you need to visit them all. Click HERE for a map showing all 60 towns.
|Treasure Hunter (10 points)
|Find a treasure with the help of a treasure map
There are several ways to find pieces to treasure maps, buy them from people in a town's tavern, accept and carry out a mission for the women in the tavern or find them scattered around the Caribbean yourself. Each treasure map has 9 parts and you will receive 1 part per mission. As more of the map is revealed you will be able to tell where on the nautical map the treasure is hidden. Once you know where the treasure is hidden, set sail and be sure to move your ship directly over the location marked on the map. As soon as your ship moves over the treasure's location the achievement will unlock.
|Crow's Nest (10 points)
|Discover 10 pirate nests
Every so often you will encountered a pirate convoy while on the nautical map, either by sailing past it while it is in range or by having one directly attack one of your ships. When this happens you need to follow it (keep it in range) as it moves along the map. Eventually it will reach a point on the coast and disappear and a pirate nest will be revealed on your map. It is also a good idea to check a town's palace as any pirate sightings made by other ships will be noted with a rough area of where it appeared. The sightings will include a town or area where the sighting was made. From there all you need to do is sail around the area until you locate the ship, then follow it as mentioned above.
|Treasure Chest (25 points)
|Pile up to 4 million gold pieces within one game
This will most likely come naturally once you have progressed further into the game and have established multiple trade routes and businesses.
|You're Welcome (10 points)
|Reach the highest reputation in a nation
The bar at the top of your screen represents you current standing with the other nations. You can also view the exact percentage by viewing your journal. You need to reach 100% with a single nation for the achievement. The easiest ways to raise your reputation are by completing tasks for a town's administrator or governor, or destroying pirate convoys. Once you reach 100% the achievement will unlock. This will most likely come naturally as you progress through the Trader campaign.
|True Hero (10 points)
|Reach the highest popularity in a town
This requires you to reach 100% popularity in a single town. To increase your popularity you need to keep a steady supply of needed goods and be sure not to buy so much that you leave the town without enough food or resources, as this will decrease your popularity. You can also boost your popularity doing missions for the town's administrator or governor. Once you reach 100% the achievement will unlock.
|Peacemaker (25 points)
|A town annexation by peaceful methods
To annex a town through peaceful methods you need the following:
|Conqueror (10 points)
|A town annexation by matial methods
All you need for this is a decent sized convoy (6+ Liners or Wargalleons) fully loaded with sailors and weapons. Sail around pressing on each town until you find one that isn't currently defended by a convoy. Once the battle starts move your ships into position (marked on the map) and take out the town's defence fortresses. Once the fortresses are down, attack the marketplace and the town and achievement are yours.
|Wedding bells (10 points)
This requires you to have control over a town. Once you are the administrator, build a manor in your town. If your reputation with the nation you took the town from is still high enough, you can speak to the viceroy and ask to marry his daughter/son. You will need to collect a quantity of food and deposit it in the viceroy's town. Once you have enough visit the town's church and the achievement will unlock. A good time to do this is directly after finishing either one of the campaigns.
|David-versus-Goliath (25 points)
|Win a battle with a pinnace against at least 60 guns
You will need a pinnace for this achievement. They are rare but can be obtained early on in the trader campaign or as the starting ship in Free Play. Once you obtain a pinnace, make sure it is fully supplied with sailors and cannon shots.
|Flawless Victory (10 points)
|Win a battle without taking any damage
This is a simple achievement if you have a large convoy consisting on 5+ warships all carrying maximum sailors. Find a merchant ship with a reasonably low combat strength, and engage them in a manual battle. If you have a combat strength difference of 40+, as soon as the battle starts, the enemy will surrender and the achievement will unlock.
|Collector's desire (25 points)
|Possess all ship types in one game
Ships are obtained 2 different ways; by buying them from a large shipyard (located in towns where a governor or viceroy reside) or capturing them during naval combat. You need to check shipyards regularly as new ships will only appear for a short time before other nations buy them, but shipyards will have more on offer every couple of days.
|Keelhaul (25 points)
|Rescue 100 sailors from sharks
During naval battles enemy sailors will fall overboard as you attack their ships. You can rescue those sailors by bringing your ship close to them. They are often difficult to see unless you have the camera zoomed in but can usually be found around the sharks that will gather as the battle continues.
|Land Lubber (25 points)
|Build 250 buildings
Buildings can be built by speaking to a town's architect but before you can build a building you need to purchase a licence from the architect in the town you wish to begin building. To do this you need to be the rank of sailor, and meet the reputation requirements (both in that town, and with the host nation). The required reputation increases each time you purchase a license in a town. Once you meet the requirements you can purchase a license that allows you to build warehouses and houses.
|Lean Back (25 points)
|Patrol fought out 500 battles
You can set any convoy to patrol by aiming at a section of water on the nautical map and pressing . This means any enemy ship or pirate that enters its sight will be engaged. Unless you have ample military convoys you can leave scattered around the map and have a low reputation (below 25%) with other nations, chances are this achievement will require some grinding.
|Davy Jones' Locker (50 points)
|Sink 1,000 vessels
This is fairly straight forward, any enemy ships your convoy sinks, either in a manual or automatic battle will count towards this. If you are fighting a manual battle be sure to choose the 'Attack my Target' command (the red crosshairs) so your AI ships shoot to sink. This may come naturally as you progress through the game and work towards other achievements but will probably require some grinding.
|Hunt for Booty (25 points)
|Loot 25,000 barrels
You can loot barrels by attacking merchant ships. To loot a merchant ship you need to ensure you have a decent sized convoy (7+ ships). When you see a merchant convoy (indicated with the 'scales' when you highlight it) engage a battle by pressing . If your combat strength is far greater than the convoy's, it will surrender and all loot on board will be yours for the taking.
|Horting (25 points)
|Posess 250,000 barrels of goods within one game
This needs to be done in a single game and will likely be achieved late in the game. You will first need to ensure you have the capacity to hold 250,000 barrels and can check this by viewing the first page of your journal. To increase your total capacity you either need to build additional warehouses or purchase/capture additional ships.
|White Lamb (10 points)
|Highest fame as 'Trader'
You can check your 'Trader' status in the journal. It will be the green portion of the pie chart and can be increased by trading, either via a convoy or manually, and by building businesses in towns.
|Wolf in Sheep's Clothing (10 points)
|Highest fame as 'Privateer'
You can check your 'Privateer' status in the journal. It will be the blue portion of the pie chart and can be increased by attacking pirate convoys and hideouts, completing certain missions offered by administrators and viceroys and by attacking a country's ships and towns while carrying a letter of marquee from an allied nation.
|Beelzebub (10 points)
|Highest fame as 'Pirate'
You can check your 'Pirate' status in the journal. It will be the red portion of the pie chart and can be increased by attacking a country's ships and towns so long as you are not carrying a letter of marquee from another nation.
|Arrr! (10 points)
|First time boarded a vessel successfuly
To board a vessel you need to play a naval battle manually. Before engaging the 'Board Ship' option it is a good idea to wear down the enemy ship's defences by using chain-shots to destroy the masts and slow the ship, and scatter shots to decimate the enemy crew. As is recommended several times throughout the game, equip your sailors with a 4:1 ratio of cutlasses and muskets.
|Plundering (10 points)
|Ambush a trader
This can be done at anytime on the nautical map. All you have to do is find a trade ship (indicated with the scales icon when you highlight it) and press to initiate the fight. Once you ship is close to the trade ship the pre-battle menu will appear and the achievement will unlock.
|Walk the Plank (10 points)
|Destroy a pirate convoy
This can be done at anytime, but you will need a decent sized convoy in order to win. Every so often you will notice a pirate flag appear on the nautical map. This indicates a pirate convoy is nearby. Search the area until you locate the ships then initiate the fight. As long as your convoy is more powerful, you shouldn't have any trouble defeating the pirates. Once the battle is won, the achievement will unlock.
|Arm of the Law (10 points)
|Destroy 10 pirate hide-outs
Refer to "Crow's Nest" on how to find pirate hideouts. To destroy a hideout you will need a strong convoy (8+ warships with maximum sailors and weapons). Highlight the hideout on the map and press to engage. You will have to fight 2 pirate convoys first which shouldn't prove difficult with a strong convoy. After that you will have to land and fight the pirates on land. With a full crew and weapons this will be easy. Once you have destroyed 10, the achievement will unlock.
|Lord of War (50 points)
|Be in possession of 5,000 guns
This requires a total of 5000 guns across all ships. You can check your current number on the first page of your journal. To reach 5000 total you will need to buy or capture additional ships. Below is a list of the ships and the number of cannons they have, obviously the larger the ship, the more cannons it will have.
|Puppet Master (50 points)
|Occupy 15,000 employees within one game
You can check how many employees you currently have on the first page of your journal. Both workers in your businesses and sailors on board your convoys count as employees. To increase your number of employees you need to recruit settlers from other towns (preferably viceroy and governor towns, as these will have many more settlers willing to work for you) You do this by selecting the town's dock and transferring the settlers to your convoy. Once you begin to establish businesses, you will need to unload sailors to convert them to workers, which will free up space on your convoys for additional sailors. Continue this process as you build up your businesses and convoys until you hit a total of 15,000 workers/sailors.
|Aye aye, Capt'n! (25 points)
|Reach the highest rank
The highest rank is 'Ruler of the Sea' and can be reached with a total worth of 6 million gold, a holding capacity of 25,000 and 6000 total employees. This achievement will most likely come naturally as you progress through the game and work towards other achievements.
|1-Way-Weapons (50 points)
|Use up 4,000 handheld weapons in boarding combats
Refer to "Arrr!" for how to board a vessel.
|D-Fence (50 points)
|Defend a town from 5 attacks
Each town has a defensive rating between 1-10, with 1 being poorly defended and 10 being heavily defended. To check the defensive rating of a town select the dock, and scroll to the left most screen. The rating will be the cannon icon in the top right corner.
|Checkmate (50 points)
|Reduce a nation's number of towns down to two
This requires you to take towns by force as you can only peacefully take control of a town if the host nation has at least 5 towns still under their control. If you are playing the Trader campaign or have started a Free Play game in 1550, then the easiest way to achieve this is by attacking the Dutch as they only have 5 towns to begin with.
|Whizz-Kid (25 points)
|Maximize all abilities of a captain
Each convoy has its own captain, and each captain has 6 abilities. This may unlock naturally as you progress through the game but may require some grinding, as each ability takes a long time to rank up. It is a good idea to wait until late in a game before grinding this, as you will find many of the captain's abilities will have ranked up naturally over the course of the game. You can view your captains and the level of their abilities by pressing and selecting each convoy on the list. You can always add and remove different ships within a single convoy, just remember that each time you add or remove ships you ensure that the convoy itself is never disbanded.
|Veni, … (25 points)
|Take control over 5 towns within one game
See "... vici."
|… vidi, … (50 points)
|Take control over 15 towns within one game
See "... vici?."
|… vici! (50 points)
|Take control over 30 towns within one game
This will take some time and planning, as rushing in can lead to your demise long before you take 30 towns. Towns captured both peacefully and by force count towards this but if you are short on time, resort to taking each town by force. Having said that, it is a good idea to try and take 5-10 towns peacefully while you build up your economy and fleet as this will reduce the time needed for the strategy below.
|Everything's new! (25 points)
|Build each new type of building in one game (Harbour Master)
|Green Fingers (25 points)
|Plant 100 trees and plants in one game (Harbour Master)
|Red Light Tycoon (25 points)
|Build 10 brothels in one game (Harbour Master)
|Self Made (25 points)
|Get 10 liner built in the shipyard (Harbour Master)
|Respect! (25 points)
|Reach maximum respect as pirate (Dawn of Pirates)
|Ruler of the Seas (25 points)
|Become the most infamous of all pirates (Dawn of Pirates)
|Gold Addict (25 points)
|Plunder 100,000 Gold (Dawn of Pirates)
|Your Ship My Ship (25 points)
|Privateer 10 ships (Dawn of Pirates)
|Off the back of a lorry (25 points)
|Plunder 30,000 barrels in Piracy mode (Dawn of Pirates)
|Town Neurotic (25 points)
|"The Rise of Christi" completed (New Adventures)
|Money Addict (25 points)
|"The bet with Pablo" completed (New Adventures)
|Pirate Terror (25 points)
|"Pirate Hunt" completed (New Adventures)
|Party Animal (25 points)
|"The Big Party" completed (New Adventures)
|Blackout (25 points)
|"Consequences" completed (New Adventures)
Secret Achievements
|Got ye new Ship (10 points)
|The first vessel purchased
Visit the shipyard in any town with a governor or viceroy until you find a ship on offer, select the 'buy' tab then select a ship you can afford and buy, simple as that.
|Wistfulness (10 points)
|The first vessel sold
Visit the shipyard in any town with a governor or viceroy with a ship in your possession, select the 'sell' tab then select your ship and sell it.
|There, I fixed it! (10 points)
|Perform an emergency repair
An emergency repair takes place on the nautical map when one of the ships in your convoy reaches less than 3% health. Ships slowly degrade as they sail the seas and can also sustain damage during a naval battle. As soon as a ship requires an emergency repair, the achievement will unlock.
|Kudos! (10 points)
|Tutorial completed successfully
Play the trader campaign and complete the first 3 missions.
|1st ARRR!chievement (10 points)
|Fist time on sea
This is a simple achievement that requires you to set sail to another port. As soon as you gain control of your ship select another port and press , the achievement will unlock as soon as the ship leaves its current port.
|Ship Ahoy! (10 points)
|First naval battle
This requires you to engage another ship in combat. To do this select a nearby ship on the nautical map and press . Once your ship is close enough the pre-battle menu will display, select manual and the achievement will pop. Unless you stick to only trading, this achievement will come naturally as you progress through the game.
|Ship Naming (10 points)
|Name a convoy
When you come into possession of a new ship, either by purchasing one from a shipyard or by capturing one during a naval battle, make sure you are in a port. From there select the ship and a menu will display, prompting you to create a new convoy. Press to initiate the convoy and a convoy name will be displayed. Press and rename the convoy to something of your choosing. Accept the name change and the achievement will unlock.
|The Message is Trading, dude! (10 points)
|A trading route is active since 365 days
This requires a convoy to be listed as 'active' on a single trade route for 365 game days. Provided the convoy is not attacked or deactivated you can check how long it's been active by pressing RB and scrolling across to the convoy tab. This will probably come naturally as you progress through the game, but to increase the chances of the convoy not being attacked, be sure to have a number of warships (with maximum sailors and weapons) included in the convoy.
|Hey Mr. Tallyman (25 points)
|Turn over a total ammount of 100,000 barrels
This requires you to sell a total of 100,000 barrels of goods and will come naturally as you progress through the game. The more convoys you have operating on trade routes the quicker you will earn this. Once you begin creating businesses, you should have barrels quickly piling up in your warehouses, either set convoys to 'empty warehouse' or manually sell the goods yourself.
|Pollywog (25 points)
|Spend 50 hours in the Caribbean
Simply play the game for a total of 50 hours. Depending on how you play through the game, this may be your last achievement but shouldn't be to far off as many of the other achievements can be time consuming. This does not have to be 50 hours for a single game and will carry between game files.

Country store 1/2 mile walk. 5 Major VT ski resorts within 20 to 30 miles. Some of best fishing is at our end of Pond. So peaceful at pond for relaxing and watching the Vermont natural habitat undisturbed.
Ceiling Fans: Over-head Ceiling fans in Kitchen, Bedrooms, & Living Room.
This gem is hidden on private road with beautiful view of the mountains, where you can enjoy morning breakfast on spacious wooden porch, checking your email and feel just the peace around you, kick back and relax. My entire family loved to stay here, my son enjoyed himself on hammock, actually without video games and friends. We had a lot of fun on lake with canoe, tried some fishing, enjoying camp fire. If you are looking for quiet place where you can kick back and enjoy some Vermont this is place to come and stay. We came with my parents who are in their 70s and they loved it! Easy way to get around. Even, we took this week to see almost the whole Vermont, squeeze one day in Canada, our son still enjoyed Okemo Mountain roller coaster:) I wish to stay here the whole summer, if I could:)
Bring your gang and just enjoy beauty of Vermont, if they young or old , you will like it. If you work online - Internet worked great and if you little cool just heat up in the wooden stove. We did a lot of viewing on this stay, but you can stay in this house a week and do not need to go anywhere. If you have a dog, you can make sure he/she will love it!!! Our labrador loved this place so much that after we return back home he looked around and run back, jumped back in the car and did not want to go home. So If you like outdoors, and even if you do not this is fun place to stay, house is comfortable and lovely. Surrounding are like from a picture. Our whole family had a lot of fun, and yes, I would recommended this house to all ages.
Four of us (2 adults + 2 kids, 10 & 11yo) spent Presidents' Day long weekend here. It was a great experience and we are thinking of coming back for a week in summer as well. The surroundings are very beautiful - meadows, woods, pond and views of the mountains - quiet and secluded. The house is well equipped, comfortable and and tastefully decorated. It is a great place to get away from it all and admire scenic Green Mountains, but once you feel the pull of city offerings, 15 miles drive brings you to Manchester with planty of shopping and dining options. This was third year that we were in this area for a long winter weekend and the routine of horseback riding at Mountain View Ranch nearby, exploration of the winter woods, dining at our favorite spots in Manchester is well rehearsed and much anticipated. The trailheads connecting to Appalachian/Long Trail network are also few miles away and, as other reviewers noted, several skiing resorts are nearby as well. It might not be the most obvious/advertised destination, but it is a great spot to enjoy Vermont.
We spent the holiday week after Christmas at this property. The property is located such as the skiiers in our group were able to ski Bromely, Killington and Stratton throughout the week. The nonskiiers were able to keep busy at the house playing with our dog on the large secluded piece of property. The backyard has a great hill for kids to go sled riding. There was also a large rustic pond out back on which some of my family found a spot to
go ice skating. And if all of this wasn't enough, there are plenty of first class outlet stores in Manchester 15 minutes away. Basically this house provides the perfect place for a winter stay, something for everyone.
My husband, dog and I had a wonderful week here in June. The house is very comfortable and spacious. We made use of the full kitchen and the grill on the deck. The grounds surrounding the house are so beautiful - lots of open space including meadow and woodland, and best of all - the lake! The views from the deck of the mountains are wonderful. Canoeing on the lake was so peaceful and so much fun. I went horseback riding at Chipman Stables (literally a 10 minute walk from the house) and took a falconry lesson at the British School of Falconry in Manchester. There are lots of nice restaurants in the area, scenic drives and great hiking including the Appalachian Trail. We had a great time and highly recommend this property and location!
Thank you to Dan for the vacation we had at his place in Danby VT. The mountains were breathtaking as were the starry nights. Many fish were caught in the pond behind the house and the tranquility was endless.
We had a slight problem with the hot water upon arrival but as soon as I notified Dan he immediately had his plumber fix it. Amazingly fast!
The house was very clean and nicely furnished. We had a great time. Thank you again to the owners.
A beautiful cabin in a beautiful setting: the large meadow and good-sized pond were perfect for both cross-country skis and snowshoes, and the weather cooperated by snowing every day but one. The cabin's kitchen is admirably equipped with all the right tools and spices, and the great room is cozy and perfect for puzzles as well as the Wii we had brought along. An added plus is the fact that we could bring our dog who enjoyed the snow every bit as much as we did. He was particularly intrigued by all the ice fishermen on the pond.
This would also be spectacular in the summer as it is ringed with mountains and good for fishing.
Danby four corners is according to Vermont Life Magazine 'one of the most beautiful places in the whole USA.' Danby is just off Route #7, 13 Miles north of Manchester. 20 miles South of Rutland. Our Cape/Chalet is 4 miles west of Danby center. Danby is a historical Vermont small town, with many antique shops and several Inns. The Vermont Summer Horse show is 10 miles away, with Manchester an additional 5 minutes beyond for outlet shopping, variety of restaurants or golf at Fleneagles Golf Course. World Class skiing is 30 minutes away at Okemo, Stratton or Bromley, with Killington just a few minutes further. 20 minutes away if beautiful Lake St. Catherine. Great Hiking trails abound nearby, with wonderful walking everywhere. Our vacation house is In the middle of rural southern Vermont, but close enough to great restaurants, outlet shopping and even Lake George within 1 hour.

Anyone done this? How many hours were you able to drive/sit before you were miserable?
moving across the country between 24-30weeks?
Posted 10/12/2012
We moved across the state of TX when I was about 26 wks....not the same as across the country I know, but it was an 8 hour drive. We stopped every couple hours so I could get out and walk around. After that 8 hours though I was DONE! Not sure I could've done much more in one day. Good luck to you!
Posted 10/12/2012
When i was pregnant with my first we took several trips from ct to oh (11 hr) and from oh to il(8 hr) and i was fine with both, stopping every few hours. And ive driven from va to oh (8 hrs) early on and will again in dec but im used to driving long distances, i think it all depends on how you feel. Just be sure to stop and walk around (youll probably have to pee then anyway)

My husband and I moved from CA to WY when I was about 17 weeks. My 2yo son and I came back to visit my family here. I don't mind long drives, so it doesn't bother me to drive the 16 hours alone. Tomorrow we are heading back home. It'll be a very long day for the three of us, but luckily my bambino doesn't make noise yet :)

I moved across the world (denver to holland) at 31 weeks with my first pregnancy. It was quite uncomfortable. But time never stops, and eventually you will get there!
Posted 10/13/2012
I moved from CA to DC at 7 1/2 months. We just stopped as I needed, it varied from day to day, but it did take us 4 days!! I'd just say rest as much as possible while you're driving, it makes it easier, and try to stay hydrated.
Good luck to you!!!
Good luck to you!!!

Ziploc Can Substantiate Evolve Bag Claims – With More Info
The National Advertising Division (NAD) determined certain environmental claimsmade by S.C. Johnson & Son regarding its Ziploc Evolve storage bags could be supported but recommended that the company provide clearer information about its use of wind energy in the product's production.
In its advertising for the Evolve line of storage bags, the company claimed that its new ultralight bags are "better for the environment," are "made with 25% less plastic," and are "made with wind energy." The claims included an asterisk to a disclosure at the bottom of print ads and in television commercials, "Made with a combination of renewable energy and energy from traditional sources."

Disneyland Southern California Tours
Presented by Rydax Enterprises Inc.
Email us anytime
Click here to sign up or make payments
Never thought you could afford Disneyland? Think again!
How does a low down payment sound? And payment plans? What do you think of a package that includes bus ride, hotel, and theme park tickets to the below attractions??
All for comparable (and sometimes less) than just a plane ticket alone would cost.
We offer low budget motor coach tours from Saskatchewan to Disneyland.
Disneyland tour details
Our tours pick up in Saskatoon, Regina, Moose Jaw, and Swift Current. The rate you pay includes your express transportation to and from California via motor coach, your accommodations, theme park tickets, and all needed shuttle service. Meals are NOT included but the hotels usually offer a free breakfast.
"Express" means you go straight thru to California with no overnight stop. Two drivers take turns driving and sleeping in a special bunk to get you to California and back as quickly as possible in order to give maximum time at the destinations. So for example, you board the bus early morning in Saskatoon and arrive in Anaheim the next afternoon.
Theme park tickets included are the Southern California City Pass which as of today includes:
Three day park hopper to the Disneyland Resort which is two theme parks, Disneyland itself as well as Disney California Adventure.
One day pass to LEGOLAND.
One day pass to Sea World in San Diego.
Also included on the tour is a short stop at Huntington Beach (in summer), as well as a stop in Vegas on the way thru, either the way down or way home.
For a small additional charge you can add a short trip (couple hours) to Hollywood to see Madame Tussauds Wax Museum and the Walk of Fame.
NOTE: If for some reason any slight adjustment is made to the City Pass our tours will be adjusted accordingly.
The tour includes transportation to all theme parks from your hotel.
In a nutshell, we have you covered. Get on the bus and don't worry about the details. Your transportation, rooms, theme park tickets (which include rides) are all taken care of in the rate you pay.

Our rates include transportation, hotel room, and theme park tickets. You pay us, we handle it all. The only extra expense you have is meals.
We pick up in Saskatoon, Regina, Moose Jaw and Swift Current. Live in Alberta? We can arrange a Medicine Hat pick up as well.

More importantly it is where you can all connect directly with a Barrett Tours expert who will fill the group with tips and advise, from dining to shopping, and more.

Last week, in a move intended to lower interest rates on federal student loans, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Bipartisan Student Loan Certainty Act , which had previously been passed by the Senate. The Act changes the interest rates for federal student loans other than Perkins Loans made on or after July 1, 2013. While the new rates are fixed rates, the Act provides that the rates can be adjusted annually for new loans based on changes in the yield on 10-year Treasury notes, subject to specified caps. The CFPB has listed on its website what the new rates will be for loans made on after July 1, 2013.
The timing of the change in rates creates compliance challenges for lenders and servicers in providing the Truth in Lending disclosures required for private student loans. Both the TILA loan application and solicitation disclosure form and the TILA loan approval disclosure form must include the current rates for various types of federal student loan programs (in a section labeled "Federal Loan Alternatives"). Since the new rates will immediately become effective retroactively to July 1 when the law is signed by President Obama, any TILA disclosures already prepared when signing occurs but not yet delivered to consumers or prepared after signing will be inaccurate if they do not reflect the new rates.
In light of the compliance challenges, four industry trade groups have sent a letter to the CFPB asking for a 30-day grace period for lenders and servicers to make the necessary changes to their systems to accurately reflect the new rates in their TILA disclosures. The letter points out that lenders have multiple application processes that need to be changed and tested prior to implementation and many lenders work with multiple vendors. The trade groups also want the CFPB to clarify that lenders and servicers will not be required to send borrowers modified TILA disclosures to replace those provided prior to or during the grace period.

Pretty Little Liars really is quite the underrated show, at least in the category that most counts. Crazy ridiculously hot female thespianics. The bulk of them including Shay Mitchell, Ashley Benson, Lucy Hale, Trojan Bellisario and Emma Ishta made their way out, decked out and showing off chesty goodness in Manhattan, perhaps shooting some kind of formal wear scene. I probably won't watch to be honest. I'm more of the peeping tom on the street kind of viewer. And these views were spectacular.
It's pretty darn amazing if you think about the full roster of hotties on television these days. So many shows, so many fine women, so little time to properly dream of them all. But I remain dedicated to servicing them all during my nightly REM sleep, supplemented by some day time fantastical moments. Shay Mitchell, I mean, come on, if she's not inspiring the creative part of your brain in the R to X-rated virtual dreamscape, you really need to start taking a multivitamin or something. Enjoy.

Teacher's pay
First-year teachers with a bachelor's degree:
State average$43,524.
Teachers with Ph.D and more than 5 years experience:
State average$88,262.
Source: ConnCAN
Starting teachers' salaries in Meriden are higher than those in surrounding school districts, but pay for city teachers falls behind suburban districts when educators become more experienced, according to a contract comparison released by an education reform non-profit.
ConnCAN, based in New Haven, released a website that allows visitors to easily compare teacher and administrator pay in state school districts with each other and state averages. Administrators' contracts were added this year while the teacher contract database was started last year and updated this month to reflect the latest agreements.
Jennifer Alexander, ConnCAN CEO, said she hopes the data will result in demands for education reform. The group advocates for charter schools and supports linking teachers' performance with rewards.
"We hope by providing access to this data in a user-friendly way, everyone in the system will have a better understanding of how the system works," Alexander said.
Teachers' contracts drive a good portion of schools' policies and expenditures, Alexander said.
The American Federation of Teachers, a union representing Meriden teachers, criticized ConnCAN which they said was "scapegoating teachers."
"With the largest achievement gap in the nation, what Connecticut really needs is a meaningful discussion about how we build a system of great neighborhood public schools. One where educators have the tools and resources to meet the needs of each and every child," said AFT President Melodie Peters. "What we don't need is more emphasis on sanctions instead of support for teachers in the classroom."
For first-year teachers with a bachelor's degree, Wallingford, Southington and Cheshire contracts were all within a few thousand dollars of the $43,524 state average. Meriden pays new teachers $47,379.
The highest-end teachers, those with a Ph.D. and more than five years of experience, are paid $84,404 by the city. Surrounding suburbs all pay higher. Cheshire pays $95,637 to teachers with similar education and experience, while Wallingford pays $94,963.
Meriden School Superintendent Mark Benigni said retaining veteran teachers is a common problem for city schools although for the most part Meriden has been able to retain its employees.
Pay is higher at the starting levels to compensate for city schools that often have higher class sizes than suburban counterparts along with other challenges. Benigni said for some teachers, urban districts are attractive for reasons other than pay.
"Some of the issues or challenges are what make working in an urban district rewarding," he said. "We've been fortunate we've been able to recruit high-quality teachers."
The city doesn't have the money to pay more than surrounding suburbs the whole way up the pay scale, however. That's led to the loss of some older teachers to districts that can pay more.
"We've definitely lost a handful of teachers but we're fortunate that our teachers enjoy working in Meriden and embrace the challenges of working in a suburban district," Benigni said. "Meriden has done a good job of retaining teachers."
The state should provide money or other incentives for teachers to remain in urban districts, according to Benigni.
In addition to pay, the database compares contractual benefits, professional development days and whether the district allows for performance pay. Up to $1,089 per year is allowed for performance pay in Southington schools.
Wallingford is one of the districts which pays close to the state averages. School Superintendent Salvatore Menzo said it's a result of the school board and the teachers working together.
At all experience and educational levels, Cheshire teachers earn more than the state average. Cheshire Board of Education Gerald Brittingham said that's in part due to the longer days town teachers work. According to their contract, teachers work 7 hours and 20 minutes while the state average is 7 hours and 13 minutes.
That extra time is used in part for collaboration between teachers and administrators, Brittingham said.
While pay is part of what keeps teachers with a district, Brittingham said it's not the only factor.
"The way you retain quality teachers is the overall spirit and experience in the community," he said. "There's more to retaining teachers than just pay."

What were a couple of the news items heading into Phoenix? Let's dig through our notes and see what we can find…
Following Broc Hepler's broken collarbone during his first practice session at A1, Yamaha Factory Racing returned to their favorite substitute-in-waiting, Sean Hamblin. Besides the fact that he was coming off the bench (though he had been scheduled to go to Germany for a race the same weekend), were a couple minor details. He hadn't ridden Supercross since '06, he'd never raced a 450, and the last time out, 2-strokes were still in vogue! With only a few days to prepare, he kept his expectations in check, and while he did ride a bit tight, he did almost reel in Moto XXX's Daniel Blair for the final transfer spot in the LCQ.
Ryan Dungey showed up in new Fox gear and promptly put his replacement sponsors for One Industries in the winner's circle.
Another item that seemed to generate plenty of drama was Rockstar Makita Suzuki's Ryan Dungey, who parted company with One Industries and the gear contract that he'd signed…whoa, just a couple months ago. There wasn't much chance that he'd show up in a t-shirt and Levis, though. Fox quickly snapped him up. Dungey was more interested in focusing on the racing side, "Coming into this week, the goal was to win it. Tonight we had a good night and right from the start, the bike felt awesome."
Ryan took the Lites main event, scoring his first win of the season. From the start of the main event, he was dueling with last week's Lites class winner, Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki's Jake Weimer. Dungey seemed to be closing the gap on Weimer when Jake crashed in a twisty sand section. Fortunately, he was able to remount and continue, but Dungey was long gone at that point. If he'd been able to continue? It would have been a repeat for Weimer, since he'd taken the Lites main there the year prior.
Following the main, Dungey talked about the opening round, where he rode to a hard-fought third place finish. "Last week we know what we did wrong, and where we went wrong, and this week was the week to get back in control." In control he is, taking over the points lead. He also noted that both Trey Canard and Jason Lawrence were on the sidelines, due to crashes. "Both of the champions from last year, they didn't make the main event. That's unfortunate, but it was a time for me to make up points. We've seen a lot of strange stuff in the championship series, so anything can happen. But we're going to do our best to keep our heads down and keep moving forward."
Due to track conditions, the starting gate saw a mix-up of riders that forced many top guys to the outside for better traction.
Looking back at Anaheim 1, we probably couldn't have had a better setup to the season in the 450 class. Just when we were all focused on James Stewart (San Manuel / Yamaha / JSE) and Chad Reed (Rockstar Makita Suzuki) running out front? Blam. They had their big yard sale after James missed a shift and collected both Chad, and later, Geico Powersports Honda's Kevin Windham. At that point, pretty much any expectations you'd had of business as usual you could toss out the window. And we'd bet ticket sales for Phoenix immediately went up accordingly.
A good finish in the heat races along with a good gate pick was pretty crucial this week. Many of the gates had a blue-groove portion right where the riders would dump the clutch, followed by a hole where the tires would finally catch traction and start digging in. Chad Reed mentioned, "The whole starting line was tough. Right where the rear wheels stood, it was really, really slick. It was crucial for everybody to pick and choose. You probably noticed that a lot of the good guys were actually on the outside, which is normally where you don't want to be, but it was so hard, we had to go where the dirt was good."
Josh Grant snagged the holeshot, again.
Josh Grant (JGRMX Toyota/Yamaha) actually started on the outside of Reed, and scored the holeshot. From there, Josh led only a portion of the first lap, before being passed by James Stewart. Chad Reed did keep James honest, getting close enough to show him a wheel before the halfway point, but then making a mistake in the sand that allowed James to build a small safety cushion. Chad whittled away at it throughout the rest of the main, however, and at the finish, Stewart had just over a half-second lead.
It probably wasn't the prettiest ride of James' career, but it was effective, scoring a full 25 points to go along with the mere two points that he'd taken home the first week. Chad Reed finished second, with Josh Grant grabbing the third spot. Following the race James said, "I knew I had to be smart and get it done. If it was going to come it would come, but I wasn't going to override the track."
James did go back to basics during the week, though, in an effort to minimize mistakes like the one at Anaheim. "The biggest thing I was working on was shifting the motorcycle. I had to go all the way back to the basics…learn how to shift a motorcycle and learn how to start the thing. We worked on that this week. But I knew I just had to ride. I didn't ride that good last week, and I rode a little better this week. But it definitely feels good to get the monkey off my back a little bit and we've just got to go for it."
Stewart enjoyed good, clean racing which he took to the checkers.
When asked if his recent switch from Fox to Alpinestars boots might have had any affect on his shifting, he said, "No, I'll tell you one thing, these boots are the best boots I've ever had on. It was me trying to block my line and short shifting. It didn't go into gear. It's always easy to look at an excuse, and there's a lot of things I could have blamed it on. But I won't blame it on anybody but myself."
James also enjoyed the racing with Chad. "That's the cleanest we've ever raced. Except for the last lap, I was never worried about him coming in on me. That's the way we should race. That's the way Ricky (Carmichael) and I raced. I like that."

It has many years since I retired as a health teacher. I still have some materials online here for anyone to update and use. Health alone is victory!
These days I spend three mornings a week volunteering at Misericordia in Chicago. At Misericordia I help staff work with severely disabled adults.
I spend summer days showing and driving our 1967 Rolls Royce, our 1950 Morris Minor, our 1960 Herald and 1992 Mercedes 600 SEL.
I am still recovering from a serious bicycling accident that left me with multiple injuries including 8 broken ribs
(4 surgically repaired) a broken scapula, and a dislocated collar bone, and more! I hope to be riding by the summer of 2015. Now I am receiving physical therapy three times a week and doing exercises at home.
Carole and I also enjoy our four Devon Rex cats. They make life interesting.

Ok i've searched around the internet on the actual benefits of investing attrib points into beastmaster and here is what one person had to say.
"A pet can be very powerfull, with no points invested in beast at all. As a matter of fact beast will probably end up giving you a less powerfull pet then if you boosted wilderness for instance since you can get healing spring, which will heal both your pet, and any other party members/allies and minions you have.
Pets can be usefull in pvp as well. The most usefull ability a pet has is disrupting lunge by far. This will destroy a spellcaster big time. Disrupting lunge, and beast again needs no points to be effective. And since most players don't bother to target a pet anyway, this makes them even more effective."
Personally i think he's full of it because they should pretty much take the beastmaster skill out of the game if it were true. Furthermore he goes on saying that increased points in beastmaster skill just increases your pet's chance to do a critical hit but not how much damage he does. So a level 10 beastmaster will kill an enemy 10 percent faster than a level 0 beastmaster. LOL Please tell me this guy is smoking the ganga.
If any of you rangers here have some light to shed on the subject i'm all ears.

Chinese puzzle chinois - photography by Albert Russo
by Albert Russo
This is dedicated to one of my favorite aunts who lay for several months in a coma state, they gave her no food or water and practically starved her to death, she was in her eighties. My cousin who had power of attorny signed off on the ok to just let my aunt lay until she finally died. It was her final wish not to be kept on life support, but I'm not sure if that included no food or water.
I'm not judging my cousin for the tough decision that he had to make, I'm just glad I don't have it on my conscious. Most of the family never really understood or appreciated my aunt. She was a tough lady very well accomplished who always taught me to forgive others for their trespasses, especially family. Thelma Waddell Vines, head nurse at North Carolina A&T State University, a strong lady until the end, salute!
Now I lay me down to sleep
a final rest that will finally keep
Hopefully I'll be entering
heavens doors
basically finish with all my
earthly chores
I've never really been a hating person
wanting to even any scores
I've always tried to make peace
so as to break from the devil's lease
Some have me misjudged
even on them I've not grudged
I pray for those who this world
has totally smudged
Even though I've found love
for all humanity a cure
It is a hard traveled road that
isn't that pure
Yet this is my final answer
for sure
Now I lay dead in the ground
finally there's some peace I've found
Basically I tried to do my best
but not toward this final rest
I would have preferred more
peace on this earth
A goal I strived for starting from
the first day of my birth
Never hardly found it for
what it's worth

They insisted on speaking with him. I told them again he wasnt available and while in the middle of asking if they wanted to leave a call back number and a name they hung up.
JL said: the call is from Wells Fargo soliciting a special promotion. if you call the number (855) 812-0321, it is a recording that allows you to have your number removed from their calling list.

jebdup said: Have received many calls from this number over several years asking if I have high credit card balances. The voice says press "3" if you wish to not receive any more calls which I do and yet I still hear from them. I call the number back and get a discontinued message for that number. ANNOYING AS HELL!!!!
Anon said: Just called, has called multiple nights in a row, said they were doing a study for the University of NH. I said I was on the do not call list, and if it did not apply, to remove me from their own list. Woman said they had no list, then tried to ask more questions (whether I had children, etc), to which I interrupted and said I would NOT be answering questions, and to remove my number from any "list" they might have and hung up. She was VERY pushy, and rude - so I was back.
SMc said: Rec'd two calls minutes apart, both listed as "unavailable" caller ID, but the phone number was shown.
Called back 2 hours later, tired man said it might have been his partner, and if it was important, they would call back.
Sounded like a personal phone line, no business indicated on answer.
me said: Called work number and left no voicemail.
Mt. Juliet also said: Unusual activity in accounts. Same here. We called back, and it said the mailbox was full. Mt. Juliet TN. What's the deal?

|Made a river walk to this pub on a Sunday afternoon. It's a busy place and very foody but has a lovely area outside where you can sit with a view of the river. However, talk about serving short measures. I must admit I have never been served a pint so low down in the glass. I also order half of guinness for my partner - embarrassing! I though the barman was going to come back and top up after taking my money (given that one drink was a guinness) but he just turned his back and ignored me - amazing, Well not if you like short (and expensive) measures!!!

|Sought out this pub on a very hot Saturday in late July. No room on the riverside part but a few seats were left indoors and I enjoyed a pint of Pride (3.94) with several hot & happy pedestrians & cyclists. The pub really delivered as a tourist venue: great location, low ceilings, nooks & crannies, conversation & laughter. Next trip I will try to visit midweek, so I can enjoy the view.

|I simply love places like this. You can smell the history. Like a museum, I would be happy to pay an entrance fee.
Great pint of London Pride and we worked our way to the terrace around the back to get up on the elevated section. Terrific location.
Then a couple came and sat next to us. Thought I recognised a face from work 10 years ago and sure enough, it was him. Shouldn't have been that surprised, as he was also a massive Nick Cave fan and this was the reason we were both in the area.

|Good to see The Dove has been turned around. Visited yesterday (Sunday), the new manager seems to be enthusiastic, as were the staff. Beer in good order.
Now upgraded my rating to reflect the changes.

|This pub is a real find! Fantastic location on the river. Great pub food but better than your average. Beers seems in good health consistantly and everyone is friendly and cheerful. You don't go to pubs expecting service like the queen but something half way is good and we have been back here time and time again. Well worth a look in!
