When art and fashion mix
Painter Dominic Rubio and fashion designer Frederick Peralta draw from each other's aesthetics
More News from Alex Y. Vergara
Drawing inspiration from each other's works, painter Dominic Rubio and fashion designer Frederick Peralta last week staged a rare art exhibit-cum-fashion show at The Podium's Atrium in Mandaluyong City. Billed as "Artes," the joint display runs until July 4.
Even if they belong to different disciplines, the two artists share one thing: a love for elaborate, Filipiniana-inspired fashion that harks back to the colonial era.
While Rubio expresses this fascination on canvas with paintings of his signature elongated human figures garbed in intricate native finery, Peralta channels it through actual models wearing his heavily beaded, embroidered, tiered and layered creations. They include a number of ternos, stylized Maria Clara dresses and barongs, made from such fabrics as piña, lace, cotton, tulle and Issey Miyake-inspired crinkled silk.
The exhibition/fashion show was presented by Gallerie Stephanie and directed by Robbie Carmona. It featured, among others, model-turned-media personality Wilma Doesnt, who wore Peralta's winning piece—a heavily beaded gold column with strands of floor-sweeping bugle beads attached to the sleeves—at the 1994 Internacional Concour des Jeunes Creatuer de Mode in Paris.
"It's a breakthrough piece for me, and I've kept and maintained it all these years," said Peralta. "Imagine how happy and proud I was when Dominic decided to immortalize it in one of his paintings."
Mutual admiration
Rubio, a native of Paete, Laguna, and a graduate of the UST College of Fine Arts, also has a considerable following among art collectors here and abroad.
Fresh from his successful ninth one-man show at SM Megamall, Rubio staged a series of well-received shows in Hong Kong, Singapore, Toronto and New York. His works have also been auctioned off in leading auction houses in Asia.
Oddly enough, the two had never met before they decided to collaborate a few months back. But their mutual admiration inspired them to draw from each other's aesthetics as they beefed up and reworked their respective collections months before the show.
"We weren't friends," said Rubio. "But because of my interest in fashion, I've been following Peralta's works for some time now. I've always admired his clothes. A gallery owner introduced us. We soon hit it off and decided to do a collaboration."
Direct link
Peralta is adept at doing contemporary Western-inspired pieces as well as clothes with a Filipiniana flavor.
"The period he focuses on is actually one of my favorite sources of inspirations," he said. "I'm amazed at the amount of details he puts into his paintings. Since I had to rework a number of existing clothes to conform to the show's theme, the challenge for me was to be able to achieve a balance that would reflect Dominic's paintings and still be true to what I stand for as a designer."
Peralta and Rubio also auctioned off two hand-painted barongs for the benefit of Operation Smile. Beauty queen Shamcey Supsup, an active supporter of the NGO, made a personal appeal for donations.
Even before their collaboration, Rubio had always maintained that there was a direct link binding fashion with the visual arts.
"The relation between fashion and painting is far from vague," he said. "In fact, it's a big one, especially in my case. My paintings always feature human figures dressed in period pieces. None of these would have been possible without my fascination and deep respect for fashion."

Animal Husbandry Minister Revu Naik Belamagi has said that the outbreak of bird flu at the Central Poultry Development Organisation (CPDO) at Hesaraghatta near Bangalore has not spread to other parts of the State.
"Incidents of bird flu are limited to turkeys and no other species on the campus or elsewhere in the State has shown signs of avian influenza," he told The Hindu here on Sunday.
Mr. Belamagi said there was no proposal to extend the ban on the sale of chicken and eggs and the direction to eateries not to serve cooked chicken and eggs, which was in force within a 10-km radius of the CPDO.
He said the State government was keeping a vigil on all the farms and precautionary steps were being taken against the spread of the disease.
Mr. Belamagi said there were no reports of the virus affecting human beings in the State.

Manufacturer: M.Toulouse
Model: Aachen
Category: Dressage Saddles
Purchase: Purchased this saddle through SmartPak Equine, Dec. 2009, due to their free shipping promo and their return policy. Paid $999 for a brand new saddle. I have seen them go for less at other online stores, but I trust SmartPak (loyal longtime customer).
Likes: I have had some higher-end saddles in my life, and this saddle ranks up there with the best in terms of balance and comfort. The leather, as other reviewers have noted, is absolutely amazing. I'm a devoted full-seat wearer, and even my slipperiest knee-patch breeches are secure in this saddle. I'm currently coming off a Prestige 2000D, and thought my position problems were due to myself (constantly fighting to keep my leg long and my thigh vertical), and I have had great difficulty sitting my gelding's bouncy trot. After riding in this saddle just once, I could keep my leg long and sitting trot was actually comfortable! My gelding also didn't hollow his back in sitting trot, which speaks volumes for HIS comfort.
Dislikes: The only negative I can say about this saddle is that right by pommel, where the nailheads are located, there are a couple of stitches that looks fairly cheap to me. The billets are also not of the quality you'd expect on a high-end saddle - they're strong, but they're not "finished". Other than that, my non-horsey husband was extremely impressed, and the rest of the workmanship is well-above average. Please bear in mind that this is a sub $1000 saddle. It doesn't appear to me that the makers have sacrificed quality where it matters (i.e. safety).
Quality: Due to the way the saddle allows a long leg and the slightly forward flap, my thigh actually does not come very near the kneeroll, which is on the smaller side compared to my Prestige. This isn't a bad thing, as I have had trouble with most dressage saddles and the knee rolls/block being too vertical, with my knee pressing against or even overlapping the roll/block. The saddle is so supportive that I find that I don't need it at all. I normally take a 17.5-18" in a dressage saddle (my Prestige is a 17"), and this saddle in an 18" fits me perfectly, with a little wiggle room. I could probably go down a size, but I have a long thigh and like the room it gives my leg. I also have a 31" inseam, 18" from hip to knee, and I'm 5'5 overall. The billeting system is slightly adjustable - the front billet is located near the front, almost like a point billet, and there is a "Y" sliding billeting system in the rear. I haven't had reason to adjust it on my fairly average gelding. However, my Wintec girth tends to draw in both billets close together, which might pinch on a more sensitive horse, so a different girth or some adjustment may be in order. The gullet is a bit narrower than on my Prestige or on an Albion, County, or other brand that is known to fit a broad-backed horse. If you have a super-wide, table-topped breed (like the more Baroque breeds, or a QH, draft cross, or Morgan), I wouldn't recommend this saddle. Even the extra-wide doesn't get that wide. Go up a tree size when ordering. They run narrow. For a TB type, though, I think this would be perfect. My typey Trakehner gelding normally takes a MW in most saddles, and this one is close fit for him. His Prestige is a 34cm, his Amerigo jumping saddle is a MW, and his Black Country XC saddle is also a MW.
Summary: I find that I like to sit back a bit more, especially in a dressage saddle. MY Prestige tends to sit me a bit further forward, more like my Amerigo, over his center of gravity. This sits me back a bit further, which I like because it helps me keep my upper body and thigh back at the sitting trot and canter. It rides more like an Albion in that respect, than like the French and Italian saddles. Definitely a saddle to consider, especially if you are on a budget, and even if you're not.

*Updates to address ANR's
*Improved Off-line document management
* Streamlined document capture and submission process
* Refreshed and updated user interface
* Additional integration and customization options
(58 stars)
Love the new interface. Very nice, but lags a lot. Phone shuts off during doc capture even with full battery. Also is only turning in only 3 transactions per payday. Behind on bills cause off it. Also would like the option to review docs, and option to send in multiple trip paks as if I were using the TP computer scanner program. Plz speed up processing time too. One star for now till needs or at
(58 stars)
Can not preview images before sending to ensure that there are no duplicates. Also, if you have multiple stops and try to capture the bills after each one, the app will send them automatically. Can not have a passenger use if you are in motion either, they are not driving so it should not be locked out while moving.

(58 stars)
Just Awesome!
(58 stars)
Will not pull out of my Gallery
(58 stars)
Works great now!
(58 stars)
App appears to be better but still needs to have the option to review documents and delete them or retake them I still think it is a poor update

Friday Means FUN!
Today is Friday, and regardless of what Rebecca Black might say, we don't all gotta get down. Some of us just want to play games. If you're under the impression gaming is reserved for Windows users, you are sadly mistaken. Here's a few I like:
Arcade Fun - M.A.R.S.
M.A.R.S. is a silly little game with great graphics and fast gameplay. It's the sort of game you can start playing at the beginning of a commercial break, and be knee deep in fun by the time your show starts again.
M.A.R.S. includes a great tutorial mode for people like me that struggle with games. If you're are an Ubuntu user, M.A.R.S. has a ppa for simple installation. The M.A.R.S. homepage is here.
Strategy - MegaGlest
MegaGlest is based on the game Glest, which is probably not too surprising based on its name. MegaGlest is a 3D realtime strategy game. The gameplay is similar to other RTS games, in that your job is to battle with your opponent to take over the world. Very Linux-minded.
MegaGlest is simple to install by executing the downloadable installer. It installs into your home directory, so superuser access isn't required. The MegaGlest homepage is here.
First Person Shooter - Alien Arena
I often recommend Open Area to Linux users, because it's open source and lots of fun. I had to mention Alien Arena this time, however, because a FPS with a scifi theme is pretty cool. Like most first person shooter type games, the goal is pretty simple: Blow up the other guy. Alien Arena has some great graphics and excellent maps.
Installing Alien Arena is a little tougher to install, as it requires you to compile from source. The compilation isn't too terrible, but it's definitely not a click and go endeavor. Here is their website, which offers download options.
While I'm not a "gamer" in the traditional sense, I do enjoy playing computer games occasionally. There is a big misunderstanding in the computer world about Linux having no gaming support. That's just not true. If you'd like me to blog more about Linux gaming options, let me know in the comment section. Oh, and sorry for that Rebecca Black link, but someone sent it to me, and misery loves company!

enjoy yourself.
thank you!!
Urban Terror
If you haven't tried it yet, Urban Terror is a fun team based FPS. It runs on the Quake 3 engine and is a mix between a realistic FPS and an arena style shooter. It doesn't have the eye popping visuals like Alien Arena, but I like the gameplay better.
Beneath a Steel Sky
For me, finding "Beneath a Steel Sky" in my Synaptic Package Manager a couple of years back was a godsend for my boring, internet-less diggs while I was working in Wales.
I know it's a port of an old game, but it's concept and storyline is just class.
Hi, here are some links to linux gaming.
I don't know what they are like, just found them with google.
Spread the Game-bit Love
Really cool and informational post. More would be greatly appreciated but this is a great start for someone like myself who is just getting into the gaming aspect of Linux. Thanks and Kudos to the post once again.
More Games plox
Rebecca Black ruined Friday!!
But in all serious I'd love to see more on Linux gaming. Keep up the good work Shawn :^)
regular feature?
Seems like every time I find a new Linux forum, the question that will not die is 'what games can I find for Linux?'. The answers that will not die are 'Frozen Bubble', 'Battle for Wesnoth' and 'Tuxracer'. I'm not saying these aren't good games, it's just that after more than seven years of asking the question, these games are the unchanging answers.
Can this be a regular feature? Even if it's just a 1/4 page spotlight... or 1/2 page, with two contrasting games (twich/brain, casual/hardcore, eyecandy/ASCII). Oh god, am I volunteering?
For more games try

More casual gaming please :)

I'm game! Hah! I would love
I'm game! Hah! I would love to know more about the Linux gaming world now that I've completed all the levels of Super Tux.

California's iconic grapeland is a great place for a meal Northern California's wine country features great dining, food events and delicious festivals
Twenty minutes south there's peaceful Yountville, where chef Thomas Keller, a global food titan, owns multiple eateries. The town has been admiringly dubbed "Kellerville." Make months-in-advance reservations for his three Michelin-starred French Laundry (6640 Washington St., Yountville, (707) 944-2380 or frenchlaundry.com; $270 prix-fixe menu). It's easier to swing through Keller's Bouchon Bistro (6528 Washington St., Yountville, (707) 944-8037 or bouchonbistro.com) for a gourmet gravlax brunch, and those Bouchon Bakery shortbread cookies make stellar gifts. Farm-fresh comfort dinners await at Keller's Ad Hoc (6476 Washington St., Yountville, (707) 944-2487 or adhocrestaurant.com). Behind Ad Hoc, look for benches and Keller's picnic-catering shack, Addendum, (707) 944-1565 or adhocrestaurant.com/addendum. Open 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursdays through Saturdays from spring until the rainy season, it offers $16.50 barbecue pork ribs with pulled pork or buttermilk fried chicken, the same moist-bird recipe from Keller's "Ad Hoc at Home" cookbook.
Push on to the city of Napa, home to corporate brands (Panera Bread), a shred of night life (see the Empire lounge at Andaz Napa) and a few extraordinary sights like the underground 45,000-square-foot Jarvis Winery (2970 Monticello Road, Napa, (707) 255-5280 or jarviswines.com). Head to a bend of the Napa River, to the Oxbow Public Market (610/644 First St., Napa, (707) 226-6529 or oxbowpublicmarket.com) for specialty and made-to-order foods, like C Casa's BLT tacos, or a cult fave from Gott's Roadside, the blue-cheese burger with garlic fries. Culinary celebs cruise the market, including chef Curtis Di Fede, whose restaurant Oenotri (1425 First St., Napa, (707) 252-1022 or oenotri.com) was called "the best new Italian restaurant in the United States" by Food & Wine magazine.
For a designated driver, consider the Napa Valley Wine Train, (800) 427-4124 or winetrain.com, whose cars are fed by three onboard kitchens and stocked with Napa wines. Rolling parallel to Highway 29, the train makes winery stopovers. Spring $139 for the Grgich Hills Estate tour: You might meet 90-year-old Mike Grgich, the winemaker behind a fabled Napa Chardonnay that beat French wines in a blind tasting, aka 1976's Judgment of Paris.
Make sure to explore the Silverado Trail, Napa's scenic back road. There you'll find a French-inspired meal reminiscent of "Babette's Feast" at Auberge du Soleil (180 Rutherford Hill Road, Rutherford, (707) 963-1211 or aubergedusoleil.com). Have six courses — from rich, statement meat like a prime-beef pavé with morels and white corn to poached Maine lobster with mango and snap peas — for $150 at this Michelin-starred restaurant. You must sit on Auberge's hillside terrace, for a full view of Rutherford's serene valley floor.
If you can't get a reservation at the top-tier Restaurant at Meadowood, its sister, The Grill at Meadowood (900 Meadowood Lane, St. Helena, (707) 968-3144 or meadowood.com/dining/the-grill), is a quick Cali-cuisine alternative with fig flatbread, organic chicken and tempting Wagyu burgers.
Before you leave Napa, have a no-frills meal from Buster's Southern BBQ (1207 Foothill Blvd., Calistoga, (707) 942-5605 or busterssouthernbbq.com). Just look for a long line of men intent on $9.15 smoky, tri-tip steak sandwiches (a side like chili beans comes with).
Close your trip with a bit of food history and visit the Bale Grist Mill State Historic Park (3369 Highway 29, St. Helena, (707) 963-2236 or parks.ca.gov; admission $5, kids $2; open Saturday to Sunday), home to a water-powered, functioning mill built in 1846. The Bale Mill reminds visitors that Napa was once known for wheat, barley and oats. Make a donation for polenta, cornmeal and pastry flour, ground and bagged on-site, to re-create some fine Napa eating at home.

There are no shortage of hip uses for cell phones, not the least of which is self-aggrandizement and voyeurism. In light of those facile uses, emerges an opportunity for storytelling through a new cultural form--cell phone cinema. The Cell Phone Cinema Contest was launched by Women in Media-Newark as an initiative to help students think deeply about Women's History Month, as well as to encourage young people interested in making films to practice the craft.
Students ages 16-22 will be rewarded cash prizes for an original 3-7 minute film. The contest has two categories: film and poster. There is a rubric for judging criteria of both categories on the contest webpage. Full contest rules and guidelines can also be found on the webpage, including steps to entering the contest.
Because Women in Media-Newark are using the contest partly as educational initiative, they require feature films to focus on awareness of health and human rights issues. Specifically and according to their website, these issues include themes such as: eradication of violence against women and sexual exploitation; elimination of discrimination based on gender, age, or race; strategies to combat homelessness; economics of health and a healthy lifestyle; and the right to an education.
The contest is open to students worldwide, and the top two film winners will receive cash prizes. Poster category winners will also be awarded. The deadline to enter the contest is January 3, 2014. The winning films will be screened at the Women's History Month Film Festival in March 2014.

added more
let's see if that was the top for the day.$83.96.... anyone want to predict a close? I'm going with $83 on the nose

Recent Culver Lake Reviews
An Atmosphere Where Everyone Immediately Feels at Home
My family and I had a wonderful early spring weekend at the Cardinal's Culver Lake Cabin. We arrived in a snow storm on Friday afternoon only to be met by Paul, Barbara and Richard's son, who was sporting a backhoe and cleared off the driveway for us to park safely. It only got better from there. We had plenty of wood to burn in their enormous fire place, comfy beds and couches, a lovely kitchen and dinning room with many small amenities that just made us feel at home. This is the heart of it; the Cardinal's have somehow created an atmosphere where everyone feels at home both with them and also in their cabin. We were at once absorbed by the fact that this cabin was one of 11 historical units built in the 1920's but fully updated with every modern convenience. From our base in Culver Lake we used our weekend to visit Raymondskill Falls, Millbrook Sugar Camp reenactment, Shops in quaint Lafayette, and had several meals in the Chatterbox, one of our favorite local restaurants. Great mini vacation at a reasonable price.
It has what they promise !
My family had a wonderful time at this lovely property. We plan to return when we can. The house is roomy, the bedrooms have beautiful views and the porch is even better than the pictures online. We didn't realize how easy it was to go from quiet afternoons reading to taking little dips in the nicely developed lake-shore water area, in easily handled kayaks. A fully-stocked grocery store and lake-side restaurant are within a minute or less. We spent one of the hottest weeks of the Jersey summer enjoying cool breezes 24/7 on this Culver Lake house, which is just an hour away from New York City environs. A delightful (and very reasonable) winner of a vacation spot!

|An Award-Winning Humanist Press — Independent Publishers Since 1986
"Humanism is free from divisive doctrines about the unknown..."
Like all philosophies, Humanism is defined, interpreted, and lived in a variety of ways. Unlike theistic philosophies, Humanism does not cling to a historical, unyeilding, unquestionable source of truth, nor does it particularly concern itself with such mysteries as why we exist. Humanism accepts differences among individuals, embraces growth and change based on an ongoing exploration of our natural world, and views morality in terms of our having proper relationships with nature and each other.

The golden throne was brought out from the Mysore palace strongroom on Sunday and readied for Dasara.
A piece of priceless heritage, it will be used for conducting the 'khas durbar' (private durbar) by Srikantadatta Narasimharaja Wadiyar of the erstwhile royal family during the Navaratri festival.
For people visiting Mysore it is the only opportunity to catch a glimpse of the throne as it is dismantled and secured in the strongroom after the festivities.
The assembling of the throne — including the main seat, the umbrella and the series of steps leading to the seat — on Sunday was accompanied by special rituals supervised by a group of priests. After this, a curtain was drawn to mask the throne.
The throne will be on display for the public from October 5 to 13.
The origin of the throne is shrouded in mystery. Though historians believe that it was a gift by the Mughals, a legend links it to the Pandavas of the Mahabharata. According to the legend, the throne lay buried in Penugonda, now in Andhra Pradesh, and was retrieved by Harihara-I, one of the founders of the Vijayanagara Empire, following sage Vidyaranya's instructions. After the fall of the Vijayanagara Empire, the throne passed on to their governor Srirangaraya at Srirangapatana, who handed it to Raja Wadiyar in 1610. The throne has been with the Wadiyar family since then but for a brief interlude when Mysore was ruled by Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan.

Our train from London pulled into the tiny Gobowen station at exactly 2 p.m. on the button. After 20 minutes a lone taxi appeared and took us three miles to the Maestermyn Cruises rental office along the Llangollen Canal.
Here we are picking up the company's newest addition to its fleet of narrow boats for hire. She's called the Romantic Princess and is 48 feet long and 6 feet 10 inches wide. We will float her west along the canal from England into Wales.
Princess was ready and we self-loaded our luggage hopping between boats trying not to slip in the crowded mooring space. One of the company's boatmen whisked us through the introduction process concentrating on safety features while pointing out functional items like pots and pans and extra bedding. When he finished, he plopped a reference guide on the galley counter.
"Any questions?" he asks.
Given my husband is a waterman, canoeist and rafter, and I a pretty good helmsman, we say no, but we did inquire as to when we would encounter the first locks.
He tells us they are about 30 minutes up the canal adding that if we get confused as to their operation to refer to the diagrams in the manual.
We're off.
The canal is much narrower than I had imagined, but it is wide enough for boats coming from the opposite direction to pass. It's single file going as the maximum speed on the canal is only three knots.
We reach the first pair of locks, reduce our speed and aim for the side. I jump off and my husband flings me a hefty rope. I pull with all my might to slow Princess down. He jumps off and joins me. Now what?
We check out the locks, but the diagram in the book proves useless. Fortunately another boat moors behind us. They are veterans and walk us through the process. We had been told that the locks would be no problem as they are all located near villages and that young boys hang around to help people like us. Not. This was the first reality versus expectation of the trip.
Not afraid to admit our ignorance of canal savvy, we team up with the other couple and because food has not been provisioned decide to stop at the nearest pub for dinner. The literature says that pubs and taverns are numerous, dotted along the countryside. Not!
A good two hours later we find a hotel restaurant and clumsily maneuver our lanky boat into a slip. The joint is closed. Backing out we get stuck in the sludgy, gooey bottom on the canal's opposite shore. My husband grabs the boat pole and tries to push us off as we slowly rotate straddling the canal.
The pole slips out of his hand and cements itself on the bottom like a flagpole. An approaching boat motors up and effortlessly nabs the pole returning it to us. The embarrassed greenhorns finally get on their way as the smirking world watches.
At 9 p.m. we find another restaurant and moor out front for the night squeezing in among an armada of narrowboats. We walk into the pub just as the cook is leaving and the servers are delivering the last portions of steaming, sumptuous legs of lamb.
With saliva nearly dripping out of our mouths, our friend volunteers to pay the chef triple if he will cook for us. He won't. We are directed to a hotel about a half mile up the road. By 11 p.m. we've been fed.
The next morning our friends get a head start. My muscles are complaining after a day of jumping off Princess and pulling her to shore plus cranking, un-cranking, cranking, un-cranking the blasted locks and lift bridges. Sleeping on a four-foot wide bed wedged between a wall and another body didn't help either.
This trip sounded wonderful in the literature. "Enjoy your very own narrowboat meandering along the picturesque Llangollen Canal passing through sleepy villages and England's lush pastoral rolling countryside." A smiling photo of Harrison Ford at the helm of one of the company's canal boats highlights the text. Maybe that version lies ahead I surmise.
The Llangollen Canal is known as one of the most scenic canals in Britain. There are thousands of miles of canals in the United Kingdom. Navigable canals were first used to transport goods in the mid 1700s during the industrial revolution.
The canals flourished for about 60 years until newly built rail lines started capturing the transportation market in the mid 1800s. Their use dwindled until the 1960s when they were revitalized for pleasure cruising. Today some retired couples live on narrowboats year-round going from one canal to another, the English version of America's RVers.
Our 48-foot narrowboat is beautiful and private, but small by comparison. Many go up to 70 feet. It even has a jetted tub. Two leather recliners make watching TV at night relaxing, if one can get reception. We didn't. There is a small deck forward and aft deck for the captain and spotter.
It's April and the tourist season is not in full swing. As narrowboat recreation is increasing exponentially and canals are finite, I wouldn't want to be here any later with increased summer traffic.
Today we enjoy the tranquil landscape as advertised. Rolling hills, grazing sheep and one of the highlights, the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, a masterpiece of engineering and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Completed in 1805 it is a daunting, narrow eleven-foot wide trough of water and walkway suspended 127 feet up and stretching over 1,000 feet in length.
After a boat coming from the opposite direction completes its sojourn, we're next up. Princess is launched. There is no need to steer, as the trough is so narrow she just floats along bumping along the sides. My husband jumps out onto the adjacent footpath running ahead to snap photos.
I look to my left from my seat on the bow and nearly faint. There is no guardrail of any sort and it is absolutely straight down. I later find out that the aqueduct was drained a few years ago and engineers found it was just as strong as the day it was built. No metal fatigue whatsoever.
The Llangollen Canal dead-ends in the town of the same name. A marina hosts about 20 boats for a maximum of three nights per visitor. Here we meet up with our lock friends and enjoy a bottle of wine. They are on the canal for a week opposed to our two.
Neighbors moored on both sides of us are narrowboat aficionados owning their own boats. One fellow shines the coal burning brass smokestacks from dawn to dusk while the other hoses off every speck of dirt collected on the trip.
We are the oddity, the newbees. The old hands take us under their wings and try to determine why our gas heater is not working properly. They recommend that for what we are paying in weekly rent ($1,000) that we call the home office. We do and they send Mr. Repair guy over promptly, after all he's only 12 miles away.
Llangollen, North Wales is a quaint walking town of 3,000. Expectation met. We lunch overlooking the River Dee which runs clear over boulders and rocks while watching old steam engines on the other side come and go, taking tourists on short jaunts.
My husband orders bangers and mash, a U.K. tradition, fresh sausage and mashed potatoes with brown gravy. Afterwards, we visit the local butcher loading up on Welsh pork and leek sausages, farm raised chicken, delectable lamb chops marinated in mint and free-range eggs for our return trip.
After three toasty nights we reluctantly head back to Ellesmere. It's so much easier this time as the terrain is familiar and we have gained confidence in our boating skills.
The canal just below Llangollen village is narrow with some stretches only wide enough for single boat. So what happens if you meet another boat, a walker asks me, as I run ahead on the path scouting for an oncoming traffic.
"Well someone has to backup," I tell him.
Later we moor for the night in a remote section of the canal with the place all to ourselves, if you don't count cows and sheep. We chain to the side of the canal without getting too much movement from passersby, except for some people who think they own the canal and speed by creating waves that violently bang our boat against the bank.
The following day we leisurely float our way back past the rental office and into new territory for our last week. It's not as pretty as where we have been, but we did find a couple of quiet places to rest and contemplate this unique adventure.
Outside of the quintessential English town of Ellesmere, we find a beautiful mere. One of nine in the area, Blakemere is a lake formed by a glacial depression in the land during the last ice age. It is serene except for a few persistent Mallard ducks that jump on the bow in search of a handout.
After two weeks we feel like veterans, almost, and would like to stay longer. We have traversed some beautiful landscape sandwiched between less desirable areas, but hey, that's travel. Would I go again, "you betcha."

Bullshit unreadable article, but there's a money-quote at the end:
Like the Uncharted games, The Last of Us has a third-person perspective, in which you see the character on-screen, but it has a more realistic, cinematic look. "We're trying to move the medium of video games into an area elevated in the same manner of respect of film," Balestra says. "We want to redefine what our medium is even called. 'Video game' is not an accurate name anymore. It is not necessarily a game with rules and a winner and a loser. It's an experience."
I.e. not a game but a simulation, what I call "The Cinematic Videogame". But anyway, the dude's claims are highly dubious: these people can't even fucking DRAW a DECENT CHARACTER -- the idea that it is precisely THEY who will move this genre forward (a genre that already has such amazing titles in its ranks as Planescape: Torment, Shenmue, Eternal Darkness, and many others -- titles which these dudes are obviously treating as non-existent, in order to put themselves forward as some kind of ORIGINATORS of the genre) is ludicrous. The characters in this game are even uglier than those in Uncharted, how could they possibly manage to draw anyone but a subhuman with the aesthetic sense of a BAT into their world? I mean look at this shit:
How could anyone possibly want to be that dude? I'd rather play the little girl instead, and even she is not that cute.
Western devs should stick to first-person perspective, where at least you can't see the ugly mug they have designed for you. And it's more immersive anyway, which many of the "experience" evangelists seem hilariously incapable of grasping.
