Nice work.
Nice theme. I like the header.
@population2 Thanks
@jbright It is easy. The readme file guides you to change the colors. If you need help, just ask me
That does the job well for the testimonies (down right), but doesn't change a thing for the slider.
Look: http:eskermedia.com/technodistributrice/temp/
(settings are "speed: 1000, timeout: 12000")
I've tried to copy/paste the timing of the testimonies, but it didn't work.
My mistake, I looked at the wrong setting. Sorry
So here's the right one, replace this in the head section of the HTML :
with this:
$('#slider').nivoSlider({ animSpeed:500, pauseTime:3000, });
...and adjust the values. You can find more possible settings at the NivoSlider homepage. The link can be found in the readme file. I hope this helps
I recently purchased this theme – very nice.
Rounded corners isn't working in IE. In firefox the menu at the top, slider image and buttons all have rounded corners. They are square in IE.
Is there a fix for this?

The City of Greater Dandenong in the south-eastern fringe of Melbourne, Australia is a traditionally industrial area with one of the country's most culturally diverse populations. As such, it has long been haunted by its image as a place of social unrest, exacerbated by a media obsessed with telling bad stories. These negative perceptions, combined with high unemployment rates and poor economic prospects were making the place unsustainable. In a bid to rejuvenate the region, state government authority Places Victoria (formerly VicUrban) and the City of Greater Dandenong launched 'Revitalising Central Dandenong' a major urban renewal masterplan worth $AUD290 million.

Chane Behanan becomes Louisville's fourth four-star prospect in the 2011 class
Originally Published: September 7, 2010By Reggie Rankin | ESPN Recruiting
Coach Rick Pitino and the Louisville Cardinals put on a full-court press over the weekend to land a fourth big-time prospect for their 2011 class. On Monday, the Cardinals' mission was accomplished when four-star, in-state power forward Chane Behanan (Bowling Green, Ky./Bowling Green) committed to Louisville after visiting the campus. He picked the Cardinals over Ohio State, Kentucky, West Virginia and Texas.
"I felt in a great comfort zone there with the coaches and players," Behanan said. ...

Statement from Kate Grant, CEO of The Fistula Foundation, in celebration of the first-ever United Nations' International Day to End Obstetric Fistula on May 23, 2013
These remarks from Fistula Foundation CEO Kate Grant mark the United Nations' first-ever International Day to End Obstetric Fistula, on May 23, 2013. The day marks the 10th anniversary of UNFPA's Campaign to End Fistula, of which The Fistula Foundation is a partner.
(PRWEB) May 23, 2013
In September of 1994, the world community gathered in Cairo for the United Nations International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD). It was the largest intergovernmental conference on population and development ever held, producing a comprehensive Programme of Action that remains today as both touchstone and framework for the field. Yet in all 194 pages of that landmark document — which covers everything from female empowerment to male responsibilities in family planning — the childbirth injury of obstetric fistula was not mentioned, even once.
Today, it has been nearly two decades since the ICPD, and it is heartening to now celebrate the first International Day to End Obstetric Fistula. We celebrate a world that has finally come together to create a global, multi-sector response to this previously neglected challenge.
In the decade since the 2003 launch of the United Nations´ Campaign to End Fistula, the global community has made important strides toward healing the staggering backlog of women suffering from this injury. Collectively, we are more organized, more focused and more efficient at identifying and treating women today than ever before.
Advances like the Global Fistula Map created by Direct Relief, UNFPA and the Fistula Foundation allowed us to pool resources and channel funding to facilities that have the capacity to provide more fistula treatment services. Corporate partners like Johnson & Johnson are leading the way in supporting fistula treatment and prevention efforts, by strategically partnering with our Foundation to help direct critical funds to advance treatment in under-resourced communities. And inspiring journalists, such as Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, continue to open hearts and minds to the plight of fistula patient and the doctors who treat them, demonstrating how fistula is often the symptom of greater problems such as gender discrimination and poverty.
While there is no simple solution to the global problem of obstetric fistula, the coordinated response of the international community is truly making headway. But our collective efforts to end fistula will not cease until the day when women living in rural Africa and Asia have access to the kind of emergency obstetric care that so many of us take for granted in the developed world.

About The Fistula Foundation
The Fistula Foundation believes that no woman should suffer a life of isolation and misery simply for trying to bring a child into the world. We are dedicated to raising awareness of and funding for fistula repair, prevention, and educational programs worldwide to help eradicate fistula. We fund local partners at 38 sites in 19 countries — completing more fistula repair surgeries worldwide than any other nonprofit not receiving government funding. Based in San Jose, California, in the heart of Silicon Valley, the foundation is honored to have received seven consecutive 4-Star ratings from Charity Navigator; only 2 percent of charities have received this designation.

SEATTLE -- After visiting 30 Major League Baseball parks in 54 days, four teenagers returned to Safeco Field Wednesday, the place where their journey started.
Kellan Larson, Travis Smith, Kendal Young and Jack Wilson -- known as the Ballpark Boys --have been friends since their days playing Little League Baseball in first grade.
They initially wanted to see a Mariners game in another city, but the plans ballooned into the epic, cross-country road trip that took place this summer.
Every day on this trip I could just count on having remarkable experiences because we're doing such unique things and meeting so many people, Larson said.
In all, the teens traveled 14,638 miles in a van decked out like Scooby Doo's Mystery Machine.Each driver took2-hour shifts, and the boys actually slept in the vanmost nights. The top of the van popped up, giving them a couple more sleeping spaces.
A fifth friend, Ruben Palmer, joined them for part of the journey.
The dashboard displayed a collection of souvenirs collected from each ballpark -- including a few bobble heads.
The teens also collected money for the Martinez Foundation, an organization started by Edgar Martinez and his wife to promote educational opportunities for minorities. Through sponsorships and donations, they were able to collect $10,000 for the foundation.
Martinez was so impressed by their efforts, he surprised the teens at Safeco Field before Wednesday's game between the Mariners and Athletics.
I looked over and all of a sudden one of my childhood heroes was right next to me, Wilson said. It was pretty surreal.
Martinez simply wanted to thank the group.
That was pretty amazing, he told them. I'm very happy for your guys.
They presented Martinez with a $10,000 check before the game.
The teens blogged about their trip. You can find more information, including highlights from their voyageatwww.ballparkboys.com.

Re: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 - America Under Siege teaser trailer
I'm interested to see how this game will pan out. It is a no brainer that this CoD installment will be designed more for console, but are even console players sick of CoD ? I can't see it doing that well at all on PC but i have a feeling it will sell on the console for just the name alone.
CoD SP is pretty good that goes without saying but is it $60 good ? I dont think so especially seeing that if the rumours are true surrounding this 'premium online service', then it would seem that more effort would be put into the MP than SP.
You never know we might just be in for a surprise but if there last attempt is anything to go by then i doubt it very much.

USC baseball edges LMUFebruary 20th, 2013, 9:04 pm by By RICH HAMMOND
USC's baseball team again used some late-innings magic as the Trojans rallied for a 2-1 victory over Loyola Marymount in a nonconference game Wednesday night at Dedeaux Field.
Trailing 1-0, the Trojans tied the game on Adam Landecker's seventh-inning double, then took the lead in the eighth inning when Vahn Bozoian's two-out single scored Greg Zebrack from second base.
In their previous game, the Trojans (2-2) scored two runs in the ninth to beat Nebraska, and they're now .500 on the season heading into a weekend series against Cal State Northridge.
USC freshman starter Brent Wheatley (Orange Lutheran High) threw five shutout innings, and four USC pitchers combined to allowe only eight hits and four walks. Nigel Nootbaar (1-0) pitched a scoreless eighth for the win and Kyle Davis (Pacifica High) pitched the ninth for his first save.
The Trojans were stifled early, as they left seven runners on base in the first six innings. LMU starter Patrick McGrath allowed only four hits and one walk in six shutout innings.Read the rest of this entry »

Online Colleges in Minnesota
Minnesota has long recognized the benefits of online learning across all levels of education. Read on to learn more about online education in Minnesota, including key trends, programs and resources.
On this Page:
- Introduction
- The Most Affordable Online Colleges in Minnesota
- Snapshot of Minnesota Cities
- Helpful Resources
Minnesota is an economic powerhouse. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the state supported more than 2.5 million workers in 2013 across diverse industries. The mean annual wage for all workers that year was $47,370, well above the national average. As of July, 2014, its statewide unemployment rate of 4.5 percent was one of the lowest in the nation.
What's Minnesota's secret? At least part of its economic success can be credited to its highly educated workforce. According to data from both the U.S. Census and the non-profit Lumina Foundation, an impressive 47.7 percent of working-age Minnesotans held college degrees in 2012, including Associate, Bachelor's, Master's and Doctoral degrees. Not only did this figure represent faster-than-average growth over the previous year's rate, but also eclipsed the national average of 39.4 percent. Still, Lumina warns even these impressive trends may not be enough.
Georgetown University's Center on Education and the Workforce projects that by 2025, a full 60 percent of U.S. jobs will require a college degree. If Minnesota's higher education attainment continues to climb at the current rate, it will fall just short of meeting this demand. In other words, the state needs still more college educated workers. Online education, which makes higher education more convenient and accessible for many students, can be a key part of the state's solution.
Minnesota is a pioneer in online education, and it has the record to prove it: Minnesota scored an "A" for innovation in online learning from the 2012 "Leaders & Laggards" report by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce due to its efforts in promoting online options at postsecondary schools. The Minnesota Office of Higher Education counts nearly 200 public and private institutions statewide, and many of these now offer online courses or full online degrees. The University of Minnesota, which launched its first online course in 1996, hosts over 30 fully-online programs through its Digital Campus.
As one of dozens of schools partnering with the popular massive open online course (MOOC) platform Coursera, the University of Minnesota extended higher educational access to students from all across the globe, and at no charge. Students enrolled in MOOCs do not traditionally earn college credit for their work, but the platform cultivates both professional and personal enrichment among students who would otherwise be unable to attend college.
Many national online colleges also offer degree programs to students in Minnesota. Some even have physical locations in the state, which may offer hands-on training or blended learning opportunities. DeVry University, ITT Technical Institute and University of Phoenix are among the national colleges that have campuses in Minnesota.
For students who want a broad overview of online options in the state, Minnesota Online is a comprehensive directory of online programs from schools within the Minnesota State College and Universities system. The site offers ctourse listings, financial aid advice, demo courses and much more.
The Most Affordable Online Colleges in Minnesota
The following list ranks the 10 schools in Minnesota that offer online degrees at the lowest tuition costs. This ranking is based on a number of factors that are important to prospective students such as the actual degree programs that are taught online, and information on tuition fees, accreditation and notable alumni. Tuition figures are sourced from the National Center for Education Statistics (2013-2014) and reflect in-state tuition (when in-state tuition is available) for all students, including online students.

The school offers a number of additional web-based tools that support online learners, including digital "active learning classrooms" and eTextbooks.

According to its official website, the University of Phoenix serves nearly a half-million working professionals each year, many of whom complete their educations 100 percent online. Students also have the option of blending online and campus-based courses, which is an especially convenient option for students enrolled in hands-on disciplines that incorporate a lot of clinical or laboratory work.
#7 - DeVry University (Visit School Site)
- Tuition: $16,010 (2013-2014)
- Accredited:
- # of online programs: Dozens of online Associate, Bachelor's and Master's degrees in: business, engineering, liberal arts, health sciences, information sciences, media arts and more.

Bonus: High school students can enroll in the school's "Early College" program, which allows them to earn college credit online while attending school.
Snapshot of Minnesota Cities
Minnesota's name is drawn from the Dakota word for "clear blue water," thanks to its large share of lakes. These waterways, combined with the state's forests and other geographical features, supported thriving agriculture, mining, fishing and forestry trades early one. Minnesota's economy has grown and evolved considerably since then, and its highly educated workforce has drawn employers from across the nation. The following cities and metropolitan regions provide a snapshot of the state's largest economic centers, including their typical earnings and industries. All economic data comes from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and the 2014 Cost of Living Index published by The Council for Community and Economic Research. All demographic data comes from the U.S. Census Bureau and the latest Labor Force Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington Metropolitan Area
Together Minneapolis and St. Paul make up Minnesota's famous Twin Cities, and are part of the state's largest metropolitan area. It is also a thriving economic center: The BLS reports that as of 2013, the district supported nearly 1.8 million workers in a plethora of industries, including Trade, Transportation and Utilities; Education and Health Services; and Professional and Business Services. The BLS reports that the mean annual wage for workers in the region was $51,050 in May, 2013, which is well above both the statewide and national averages that same year. The Cost of Living Index is 108.2, with home prices averaging $342,280.
The Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington metro was home to an estimated 3,175,000 people in 2013, and according to the BLS, supported a full 4.7 percent of the state's total workforce as of July, 2014. This share only grows when one accounts for commuters from surrounding communities, like St. Cloud, Red Wing and Northfield.
Fun Facts for Online Learners
The City of St. Paul calls its city the "Most Livable City in America," thanks to its local economy and cultural vitality. It is also home to several Fortune 500 company headquarters, not to mention a number of historical and cultural landmarks. In 2013, The Huffington Post published an article applauding the Twin Cities for their healthy residents, naming the region the "most active metropolitan area" in the nation.
The BLS considers Duluth Minnesota's second largest metropolitan region, though it remains significantly smaller than the Twin Cities metro. As of May, 2013, the BLS estimated that Duluth supported more than 123,000 workers. Mean regional earnings that year were $40,700, or a bit under the statewide average. The region's largest industries by employment, as of July 2014: Education and Health Services; Trade, Transportation and Utilities; and the Government. The Cost of Living Index in Duluth is
An estimated 274,000 people called Duluth home in 2013, though its economy draws commuters from across St. Louis, Douglas and Carlton counties.
Fun Facts for Online Learners
Duluth is situated on Lake Superior, which is the largest freshwater lake in the world, and according to the website "Visit Duluth", was once home to more millionaires (per capita) than any other city in the world. It was also once named one of the top four Midwestern small cities in the nation by Money Magazine, based on sheer livability. Many of its restaurants, parks and museums are accessible by an extensive, climate-controlled skywalk downtown.
Rochester is Minnesota's third-largest economic center. It is just a touch smaller than Duluth, statistically speaking, but according to the BLS, still supported more than 100,000 workers in 2013. The region's largest industries, as of July, 2014: Education and Health Services; Trade, Transportation and Utilities; Manufacturing; and the Government.
The U.S. Census estimates that as of 2013, 110,742 lived in Rochester proper. Of residents age 25 and over, 42.7 percent held at least a Bachelor's degree that year.
Fun Facts for Online Learners
Rochester is a Midwestern mecca of arts and culture thanks to its Rochester Art Center, the Rochester Symphony, Chateau Theater and more. Perhaps Rochester's best known legacy, however, is its world-famous Mayo Clinic, which not only trains and supports surgeons and physicians from all across the world, but contributes thousands of dollars each year to medical research.
Helpful Resources
There are a number of resources prospective students researching online colleges in Minnesota may find helpful. Minnesota Online is an online directory of web-based courses and degree programs offered through the large, public Minnesota State Colleges & Universities system. The Minnesota Office of Higher Education offers additional resources to now-and-future college students, including key information on college readiness and financial aid. While all the colleges featured in our list provide plenty of information about their programs on their websites, it is important to remember that tuition, program options and accreditation status can change. We suggest contacting schools directly to learn more.

Sampdoria coach Delio Rossi was asked about Genoa's spying before yesterday's dismal derby defeat.
Samp caught Genoa youth team goalkeeping coach Luca De Prà hiding in the bushes to spy on their training session dressed in full camouflage gear before the game.
"I am sure someone sent him, as he hardly went of his own volition," said Rossi, scoffing at Genoa's claim it was 'personal initiative.'
"I actually felt pity for him, as the poor thing said he was 'just working' when we caught him. Anyway, that whole affair had absolutely nothing to do with this result."

I'm surprised no one has mentioned instant-return mirrors. Not all Hasselblads have them; the SL66 does. I always found finder blackout disruptive, especially when shooting events.
When I shot weddings with my SL66 (in the seventies), the combination of instant-return mirror and the unrivaled close-focusing capabilities were great. I also find the SL66 film magazines a lot easier/faster to load, although I'm sure I could get used to either.
Today I shoot for fun, and I find the SL66 a fantastic camera, either handheld or on a tripod. (although, if I could somehow rationalize the purchase, I'd probably go for a Rollei Hy6 instead. )

The UK European Consumer Centre has put together a handy "What you should know" online guide for people visiting London's Olympic and Paralympic games to help overseas visitors enjoy a trouble-free Games.
Jed Mayatt, UK European Consumer Centre manager, said: "Many people have been looking forward to the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games as one of the sporting highlights of their lives. If rogue traders start to flourish, we want to ensure that consumers - both in the UK and those visiting the UK from elsewhere in the European Union and beyond - understand their rights.
"During summer 2012, hundreds of thousands of people are expected to descend on London and the rest of the UK. We want to help all visitors to ensure their stay goes without a hitch. There are so many possible pitfalls – either with accommodation, eating out, fake tickets or buying goods in the UK – so consumers need to be on their guard."
The UK ECC is ready to offer assistance for any EU traveller whilst they are in the UK, however, overseas visitors should contact their national European Consumer Centres if they wish to pursue a complaint once they have returned home.
The UK European Consumer Centre can be contacted by email – firstname.lastname@example.com – by an online contact form , by cross-border complaint form , or by phone on 08456 04 05 03 weekdays between 10am and 3pm.
EU consumers can also consult the Commission's website or submit a web request for any consumer-related problems they have.
The UK ECC is part of the European Consumer Centre Network (ECC-Net) - with 29 centres covering Europe, plus Iceland and Norway. The network provides advice and support to consumers who have a dispute with a trader based in a European country outside the UK.

Lol, love KSI, can't believe i hadn't heard of him until a couple of months ago when i first saw you post a video of his. So uh thanks for that, +3
Related story: My cousin and I were playing Faceoff on MW3 about 3 weeks ago. Going against 2 clanfags in Kill Confirmed. Beat them at the end by like 3 dogtags. Then i hear one of them call us "camping faggots" because in the final killcam it shows me behind cover raping them with my bullets. Respond with a strongly worded message. Get called a "fag" again for using Assassin. I'm a "faggot" for using a perk to my advantage? Okay then. He then proceeds to tell me that he'll take my cousin and i on by himself with his godly 1.45 K/D. Agree to it, tell him to add my account since we were on my cousins. Log in to mine and surprise, no friend request from him. So i send him one, he accepts, then i invite him to a private match and wait for like 10 mins. After waiting and waiting, i get an invite from him. Tell him i invited him first, to which he replies "don't trust you." Fucking pussy.
Guy i went against

He is awesome
I wonder if you just can add him on xbox live
Vans - replied 2012-07-11 16:21:34+1there are a lot of people that play video games and make funny comments and review them. If they get a lot of views, they get some money and games send to them to review them, because so many people take for granted what they say, and it is better than a review in some magazine because you dont see how they play it and if they are just raging over the game or are too stupid to play or anything like that.
There are even people that are SOOOOOO unfunny I get really pissed that they get money.
I wanted to see the darkness 2 uncut, because I was wondering what they actually took out of the game and saw a review. I rage quit because his jokes where so lame. He was throwing one of those parking charge thingy threw a person and he was like "didn't you pay for parking" and was laughing all the time and never stopped talking it was so annoying. I found out that they buy them equipment and stuff so the reviews are better and the HD graphics are more shown.
So I was wondering if he gets money because he actually deserves it, even though I would love to have his job. Just like the people that play video games on TV and review them and get paid from MTV just to play games. They arent even pro gamers they are average and they dont know that much, pretty much as much as I know. But I dont think they would ever give me a job, because there are people that know so much more than me and whatever lol. It makes me sad, I am just going to university and studying IT so I may get a job like that XD

Congressional spouses bond in a photo-shoot
More News from Maila Ager
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines—The spouses of lawmakers also got their own share of the spotlight in a photoshoot before the annual State of the Nation Address (Sona) at the House of Representatives Monday.
Evangeline Pastor, officer in charge of the Congressional Spouses Foundation Inc., said they hold annual photoshoots every Sona because this is the only time they are all together.
The Congressional Spouses Foundation Inc. is an organization composed of the spouses of lawmakers. They conduct outreach programs and other socio-civic projects, Pastor said.
She said since they are all dressed up already for the Sona they took the opportunity to take pictures.
A few of the spouses decided to wear dresses made from traditional fabrics to show their cultural heritage and ethnic roots.
Cecilia Dalog, wife of Representative Maximo Dalog of the Lone District of Mountain Province, wore a dress made from the traditional fabric of Paracelis in Bontoc.
Josephine Agyao, wife of Representative Manuel Agyao of the Lone District of Kalinga, also wore traditional fabrics from Kalinga.
Some lawmakers came to pose for a family portrait with their spouse.
The head of the organization is the spouse of whoever is the current Speaker of the House. However, Feliciano Belmonte, whose wife is deceased, chose Quezon City Vice Mayor Joy Belmonte, his daughter, as his representative.

Blog-abration #4: Yeoju, South Korea: A Photo Tour of Our Korean Hometown

Published: October 5th 2009
Home Sweet Yeoju
This picture, not this one but one exactly like it, was the first ever visual evidence I had of town. I got it about a month before leaving for Korea on Google earth. Little did I know it was from the Yeongwaloo pavillion overlooking town. Sure gonna miss this little place!
Before coming to Korea, we couldn't find any information on the designated town we were to call home for the next year. Literally, the only two solid bits of information, if you can call them that, in which we knew for sure was that Yeoju is the home for some kind of world ceramic festival and there is a premium outlet shopping mall in town. You could say we were going in pretty blind, but in the end, it was an absolute blessing.
Before I get into Yeoju a little, we're currently enroute to Japan, the final leg of our Asian experience. Those blogs are coming right up, sorry I'm a little behind on the writing- been a little busy. We officially have left Korea, Yeoju, our jobs, and friends which was all quite sad. As most of you have gotten from the gist of these blogs we've really cherished this incredible opportunity (most of the time) is. It has been difficult at times, but we've learned an astronomical amount about the world, different Asian cultures, and have met some fantastic people along the way.
I don't know if I will ever be able to accurately describe what this

year has provided, but maybe I'm just not supposed to. Ask any traveler why they travel and it certainly won't sound as worthy as it is in actuality. Words so often thrown around, and accurately so, are things like, "perspective, growth, self realization, knowledge." Even those don't do the justice a year abroad living or working or traveling really offers; they still lack in some way I can't quite put my finger on. What I really do know is this, the man writing this blog one year ago, is much different than the one writing now, and it is because of these things and so much more.
I wrote in the last paragraph of my article on
"is the personal growth that happens as a result of the humbling, the first hand experience, the uncomfortable job and life, when you start to realize living and working in a different country may have just been the best decision of your life."
So… we are excited to get back to the comforts of home, to see Denali and everyone we've missed this past year, but it is hard to say goodbye to such great friends when you don't know

Yeoju's famous crop, along with peanuts and sweet potatoes, that is known around the country.
when you'll see each other again. I suppose that is the journey of life and the growing process, but that doesn't make it any easier. The comforting thought is that we all know that we will make an effort to stay in everyone's life, in one way or another.
But I'm getting off track…
Yeoju, about 40 miles east-southeast of Seoul is an area of about 100,000 people. We soon found out that was the county of Yeoju (or Yeoju-goon), and not the city (known in korean as Yeoju-eup), which was smaller at about 50-70,000 people. It is 'very country' by Korean standards, but having everything you could ask for and only an hour bus ride from the city, it suited us wonderfully. You can run into the city for shopping, a night out, Superstar K, or a Jason Mraz show and be back in no time. One of the best things that happened to us was probably having our recruiter from
Reach To Teach
saying, "I realize you're both from Montana, so I thought you'd like a placement a little outside of Seoul." You couldn't have been more right, Mitch.
We've really enjoyed it, and it has a
King Sejong
Overlooking his city. He is the king that invented the Hangeul language (written korean) and is the only modern language with a documented date of invention. The reason was to differentiate the Korean language from Chinese and for easier communication between Koreans. He is currently buried in town.
lot of little treasures in and around it. I've learned this little blog has cropped up on some of the teachers/families Google searches for Yeoju. That's pretty cool. Cass and I are most definitely going to continue posting to this blog (despite the "joncasssouthkorea" name), and keep sharing our adventures from wherever we are (as long as people keep reading it, I suppose) and I just want everyone and anyone out there to know I'm more than willing to field any questions now or in the future about it, Korea, or the general ESL experience (or really anything for that matter). Feel free to shoot me a message or comment- no worries.
But, since this is a "Photo Tour of Yeoju" I won't right any more. I will rather share this cool little place we called home with you in the captions of these photos we've taken throughout the year.
From Gucci to Coca Cola and the ancient King Sejong, from farming famous rice to the world's greatest ceramic coffee mugs, please let me introduce to you…

pages of Yeoju pictures and some stories about them to check out.
p.p.s. - Here's a ploy at getting you to subscribe the the blog. It's the easiest way to know if I change it up ever, since I will continue this into the future. Just go to the front page of the blog, there is a blue square button that says 'subscribe' (under all the links I put up and the green trip links)- click it and give your email. Then, everytime I post a new blog entry, you'll get an email! Easy, painless... and I think it's probably the best way to keep in touch out there! Thanks so much!
Oh, and p.p.p.s. (is that right?), Yeoju rhymes with Soju… coincidence???

Brief history of South Korea
Korea was an independent kingdom under Chinese suzerainty for most of the past millennium. Following its victory in the Russo-Japanese War in 1905, Japan occupied Korea; five years later it formally annexed the entire peninsula. After World War II, a...

Restaurant Street
Downtown Yeoju seemed to have this one street with an abnormally large percentage of restaurants, marked with this little green archway. About a black down was the scene of our late night romp after the fourth of July- picture soju infused hot greasy grilled bacon and Lance... good times
Bus Stop, Yeoju Style
We spent quite a bit of time under these. The public transportation here is amazing, and pair that up with our bikes... and all of Korea is ours.
여 주 곷(Yeoju Flowers- how's my korean?)
Yeoju-eup Rice
This is not far from our apartment, in a rice terrace one the main road of town. "Yeoju is very country."

Hyway 42, Yeoju-eup, Yeoju-goon, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea
Streetside Peppers
The before product of that famous red pepper paste... yummy
It's currently harvest season, Korean Thanksgiving called Chusok, so this guy is getting things ready.
Street fruit
We were dumbfounded by the seasonality of the food in Korea. There were definitely strawberry, peach, watermelon, grape seasons and this different yellowish fruit that was good. So many of the street vendors just bag it up and let it sit on the street or the back of trucks until its sold. The fruit is so so good here, so so good.
The downtown sidewalk, locals strolling, relaxing beauty of rural Korea
Nam Han River through town
The floating fish restaurants on the river. Just outside of the picture is where we celebrated the 4th on the beach.
Park Fountain
The city park in downtown Yeoju had this cool fountain, the most dangerous playground I've ever seen, and numerous badminton courts.
King Sejong style
The Infamous One Time
Just a convienience store, keep in mind. This is the place, once the weather got nice enough to drink outside, all the weigookins (foreigners) would meet to put down some soju around the cheap plastic tables they set up outside. Lots of memories and debauchery here...
Korean Sunset
During one of our BBQ's at the Yeongwolu Park in town, I grabbed this shot of a sunset. It could be one of the most asianistic pictures I have.
Night lights of downtown Yeoju
Street vendors
Every fifth day, the Yeoju market street erupts with life becasue of the market day. stinky fish booths, clothes, anything you can imagine from the locals is being sold... I even heard there is a section of live animals, like stock animals, that are sold at the end of the street, but we never got that far. It's good fun just for strolling and passing time and getting some wicked culture too

Well done...
Your love of the place and the people shines. I'm an old Peace Corps/Korea volunteer, married to an almost as old Peace Corps/Korea language teacher, and we intend to retire to a farm/orchard with relatives within the next few years. Looks like a real good fit!
