Matthew McConaughey & Camila Alves; Top Secret Texas Wedding!
Sorry ladies! However, Matthew McConaughey has been taken for quite a while. He and longtime love, Camila Alves, are getting married at a private ceremony in Texas this weekend. According to E! News, the couple reportedly invited only about two dozen close friends and family for an intimate celebration. Workers for the event had to sign nondisclosure agreements.
The 42-year old actor and 30-year Brazillian model have been together since 2006, and Matthew proposed on Christmas Day over the holidays. They have two children together, Vida, 2, and Levi, 4.
The family has recently moved from L.A. to Matthew's home state of Texas. Relocating to Austin made Matthew very happy as he told E!, "We got children, family values, neighbors and common sense."
Congratulations, Matthew & Camila! Enjoy your weekend!

Even for a city of its size and stature, hotels in the Indianapolis area exceed expectation with regard to price range and lodging details. From historic club-style downtown icons and European-style boutiques with high tea to ultramodern design-focused and affordable hotel accommodations, guests will find an option that fits not just budget, but lifestyle as well.
Most area hotels are located close to the city center, and many are connected to both Lucas Oil Stadium and the Indianapolis Convention Center via the Skywalk enclosed pedestrian connectors. During your stay in downtown Indianapolis, you will find the city center pleasantly packed with retail, restaurants, and cultural entertainment, voted one of the best downtown areas in the U.S.
Access to the downtown business and financial districts via IndyGo city bus is provided on a regular basis from the airport and other points within the city. Once guests have arrived in the city core, a car may prove unnecessary due to the proximity to many attractions. While bus service does connect to a number of venues citywide, a shuttle offers further connections from the downtown area to several nearby cities.
Lodging and hotel price points are average for a medium-sized city in the Midwest, with a broad range from affordable value-priced stays to some fairly extravagant downtown suites. There are several options near the airport, again with a broad range, and several hotels located on Interstate 465 as it circles the city. Such locations may prove appropriate for guests visiting addresses outside the city center, in which case a rental car may be advisable.
Hotels in Indianapolis, Indiana
With a thriving arts culture, myriad outstanding museums, multiple high-profile sporting events throughout the year, and numerous historic landmarks, it's no wonder that Indianapolis is such a popular travel destination. Once nothing more than a patch of wilderness in the center of the state of Indiana, today, Indianapolis is a booming metropolis with a lively downtown area. You can spend an afternoon perusing one of the city's many museums, like the Indianapolis Museum of Art or The Children's Museum of Indianapolis. You can view the city's impressive monuments and memorials or enjoy a leisurely stroll through beautiful White River State Park. Sports fans may want to catch a Colts game at Lucas Oil Stadium or a race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. You're sure to get caught up in the Hoosier spirit when you visit this thrilling city! And Travelocity can offer you the best rates on Indianapolis hotels. You can stay close to the action and still save money with our incredible deals on hotels downtown. Indianapolis is the place to go for a vacation you'll never forget, and Travelocity is the name you can trust to get you there.
What to See
The Indiana Soldiers and Sailors Monument on Monument Circle is a touching tribute to Indiana's military members and a breathtaking sight you won't want to miss. Built between 1888 and 1901, it has the distinction of being the largest monument of its kind in the United States built to honor everyday soldiers. This impressive limestone obelisk topped by a bronze statue stands 284 feet tall. Since 1962, the monument has been decorated with strings of lights every holiday season. Next, stop at the remarkable Indiana War Memorial. Designed to resemble one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Tomb of Mausolus, this magnificent memorial contains the Indiana War Memorial Museum. And no trip to Indianapolis would be complete without a visit to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, home of the Indianapolis 500 as well as the Brickyard 400, races that attract huge throngs of spectators every year. It is the largest spectator facility in the world. Even if you're not a fan of racing, this iconic Indianapolis landmark and the accompanying Hall of Fame Museum are definitely worth seeing.
What to Do
There are plenty of great ways to stay active in Indianapolis. You'll find a number of walking and bicycle tours that will take you to all of the city's major sights. You can also walk or ride your bicycle along the Indianapolis Cultural Trail, an eight-mile urban bike and pedestrian path that connects five of the city's various districts. This amazing path offers access to a number of Indianapolis attractions, including museums, restaurants, shops, and Lucas Oil Stadium. Get back to nature with a hike in the city's gorgeous Eagle Creek Park. Just minutes from downtown, this massive city park includes about 10 miles of nature trails, where you might spot deer and other wildlife, and Eagle Creek Park Marina, where you can take a boat, a kayak, or a canoe out on the water. The scenic White River State Park is also a fantastic place for a bike ride or a run. Located on the banks of the White River in downtown Indianapolis, it's a popular place for people to enjoy the great outdoors.
While you're there, you should check out the many cultural attractions in the park. Take time to admire all of the live animals in the various habitats found at the Indianapolis Zoo. Children and adults alike will delight to see elephants, tigers, giraffes, orangutans, dolphins, and the many other exotic animals that call the zoo home. Next, visit the Indiana State Museum, also located within the White River State Park. Inside, you'll find all sorts of exhibits relating to the fields of science, history, and art. The museum is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. If you're all tired out from riding bicycles or touring the cultural attractions, the White River State Park is also a wonderful place to just relax. You could sit in the shade or enjoy a picnic on the grass with friends.
When to Go
There's no bad time to travel to Indianapolis, Indiana. The city sees a lot of visitors during the summer months, when temperatures hover in the 80s and school is no longer in session. This is the most popular time of year for families to go on family vacations, and the many sporting events that Indianapolis hosts in the summer make the city a favorite with Hoosiers and non-Hoosiers alike. The Indianapolis 500 takes place over Memorial Day weekend each year, and if you're a racing fan, this is definitely the time to visit. Just be aware that Indianapolis hotels, especially hotels in downtown Indianapolis, will fill up quickly for this event, so don't wait until the last moment to book your accommodations online. Fewer people choose to visit Indianapolis during the winter, when colder temperatures and snow could put a damper on vacations. However, Monument Circle is a dazzling spectacle during the holiday season, when the Indiana Soldiers and Sailors Monument is decorated with sparkling lights like a giant limestone-and-bronze Christmas tree. Due to the decrease in tourism, the winter is a great time to find savings on Indianapolis hotels. Downtown Indianapolis is also the perfect place to do some holiday shopping. Mild temperatures and smaller crowds make spring and fall ideal times to go to Indianapolis. Downtown hotels are available at unbeatable prices year-round with Travelocity.
Indianapolis is a beautiful city with so much to offer! Whether you come for the rich history, the splendid parks, the thrilling sporting events, or the eye-catching art, you are sure to find everything you are looking for and much, much more in the city known as "The Crossroads of America." With Travelocity, astonishing vacation packages and incredible deals on cheap hotels in Indianapolis, Indiana, are at your fingertips. Buy your tickets online now!

FORT WALTON BEACH — It's not been an easy road for 14-year-old Taylor Springer, but on Tuesday morning she was reminded again that tough beginnings can lead to happily ever afters.
The realization dawned during a 45-minute assembly with a pilot from Miami named Barrington Irving who clawed his way out of poverty and into the record books when he became the youngest person to fly around the world solo at the age of 23.
"I've literally worked from the ground up, too," said the eighth-grader, who has "been through the foster care system."
Taylor was one of hundreds of elementary, middle and high school students to hear Irving's message during a series of assemblies at Choctawhatchee High School designed to inspire them not only to dream big, but consider careers in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math, or STEM.
"Don't let anyone stop you from pursuing your dreams," Irving, who is 29 and president of Experience Aviation, told the students. "And remember, it all starts with one step forward."
Irving also spoke to adults who gathered at the Okaloosa STEMM Center on Monday evening to hear his story, which began in the most unexpected way.
Irving was 15 years old when a pilot named Gary Robinson walked up to him in a store and asked if he'd ever considered becoming a pilot.
"The first thing out of my mouth was, 'I don't think I'm smart enough to fly an airplane,' " Irving recalled.
Out of curiosity, Irving asked Robinson how much money he made. When Robinson told Irving $117 an hour, the teenager's interest kicked up.
"I said, 'I may not be smart enough to fly a plane, but I'm certainly not dumb enough not to try," Irving told students with a laugh.
But it wasn't luck that landed him in front of the students Tuesday, he said, and it wasn't because anyone handed his future to him.
It was because he fought for it and never let it go even when it meant turning down a full football scholarship to the University of Florida.
"I believed in something, and what I believed was I could become a pilot," he said. "I was just wiling to do whatever it took."
Now he's ready to give back, and at the advice of Robinson — who Irving still considers his mentor — he has started talking to students to spark their interest in STEM through hands-on activities organized by his nonprofit company.
His next venture will begin in September 2014 when he boards an airplane retrofitted into a classroom and starts offering students a new way to take field trips.
"Basically (I'm) creating a real-life Magic School Bus with wings," Irving said.
During his five-month journey he will land on all seven continents and ask students to use math and science to help direct his activities in each location.
"We need to make math and science real for kids," he said after his talk. "I know what it can mean for these kids."

The standard way to refer to a citizen of the United States is as an American. Though United States is the formal adjective, American and U.S. are the most common adjectives used to refer to the country ("American values," "U.S. forces"). American is rarely used in American English to refer to people not connected to the United States. In British English American can refer to somebody or something from the Americas, or from the USA, depending on context.
The word can be used as both a noun and an adjective. In adjectival use, it is generally understood to mean "of or relating to the United States of America"; for example, "Elvis Presley was an American singer" or "the American president gave a speech today;" in noun form, it generally means U.S. citizen or national. When used with a grammatical qualifier the adjective American can mean "of or relating to the Americas," as in Latin American or Indigenous American. Less frequently, the adjective can take this meaning without a qualifier, as in "American Spanish dialects and pronunciation differ by country," or "the ancient American civilizations of the pre-Columbian period were advanced in mathematics and astronomy." A third use of the term pertains specifically to the indigenous peoples of the Americas, for instance, "In the 15th century, many Americans died from imported diseases during the Spanish conquest".
The Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, and Italian languages use cognates of the word "American", in denoting "U.S. citizen". In Spanish, americano denotes geographic and cultural origin in the New World; the adjective and noun, denoting a U.S. national, estadounidense (United Statesman), derives from Estados Unidos de América (United States of America). Portuguese, has americano, denoting a person or thing from the Americas, and for a U.S. national and things estadunidense (United Statesman), from Estados Unidos da América, norteamericano (North American), and ianque (Yankee). In French, étasunien, from États-Unis d'Amérique, distinguishes U.S. things and persons from the adjective américain denoting persons and things from the Americas; like-wise, the German usages U.S.-amerikanisch and U.S.-Amerikaner observe said cultural distinction, solely denoting U.S. things and people.
The Spanish words estadounidense (United Statesman), norteamericano (North American), yanqui (Yankee), and gringo are Mexican, Central American, and South American usages denoting U.S. things and persons. In personal denotation, "gringo" means a norteamericano, in particular, and anglophones in general, and, linguistically, any speech not Spanish, i.e. "She is speaking gringo, not Spanish". Cognate usages may cause cultural friction between U.S. nationals and Latin Americans who object to American English's exclusionary denotations of American.
The derivation of America has several explanatory naming theories. The most common is Martin Waldseemüller's deriving it from Americus Vespucius, the Latinised version of Amerigo Vespucci's name, the Italian merchant and cartographer who explored South America's east coat and the Caribbean sea in the early 1500s. Later, his published letters were the basis of Waldseemüller's 1507 map, which is the first usage of America. (SeeCohen, Jonathan The Naming of America: Vespucci's Good Name. Retrieved on 2007-06-26..)
In 1886, Jules Marcou said Vespucci renamed himself from Alberigo Vespucci (Albericus Vespucius) to Amerigo Vespucci after meeting the native inhabitants of the eponymous Amerrique mountain ranges of Nicaragua that connect North America and South America, an important geographic feature of New World maps and charts. Moreover, there is the 1908 theory that America derives from Richard Amerike of Bristol, England, financier of John Cabot's 1497 expedition. Cabot is believed the first Western European on the mainland. In the event, the adjective American subsequently denotes the New World's peoples and things.
The 16th-century European usage of American denoted the native inhabitants of the New World, soon extended to include European settlers, namely Spaniards and their children. In 1776, the Declaration of Independence and the Articles of Confederation proclaimed the country named The United States of America. The confederation articles state: "In Witness whereof we have hereunto set our hands in Congress. Done at Philadelphia in the State of Pennsylvania the ninth day of July in the Year of our Lord One Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy-Eight, and in the Third Year of the independence of America."
The first, official usage of the formal country name is in the Declaration of Independence: "[the] unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America" adopted by the "Representatives of the united States of America" on July 4, 1776. The current name was established on November 15, 1777, when the Second Continental Congress adopted the Articles of Confederation, the first of which says, "The Stile of this Confederacy shall be 'The United States of America' ". Common short forms and abbreviations are the United States, the U.S., the U.S.A., and America. Colloquial versions are the U.S. of A. and the States. The term Columbia (from the Columbus surname), was a popular name for the U.S. and for the entire geographic Americas; its usage is restricted to the District of Columbia name. Moreover, the womanly personification of Columbia appears in some official documents, including editions of the U.S. dollar.
In the Federalist Papers, Alexander Hamilton and James Madison use American with two different meanings, political and geographic; "the American republic" in Federalist Paper 51 and in Federalist Paper 70, and, in Federalist Paper 24, Hamilton's American usage denotes the lands beyond the U.S.'s political borders.
President Washington's farewell in 1796 says: "The name of American, which belongs to you in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of patriotism more than any appellation.
Originally, the name "the United States" was plural — "the United States are" — a usage found in the U.S. Constitution's Thirteenth Amendment (1865), but its common usage is singular — "the United States is" — since the turn of the twentieth century. The plural is set in the idiom "these United States".
Before the Constitutional Convention, several country names were proffered, the most popular being "Columbia". The problems of "the United States of America" as a name (long, awkward, imprecise) were discussed; the Constitution ignores the matter, using "the United States of America" and "the United States". The name "Colombia" (derived from Christopher Columbus; Sp: Cristóbal Colón, It: Cristoforo Colombo), was proposed by the revolutionary Francisco de Miranda to denote the New World — especially Spain's and Portugal's American territories and colonies; it was used in the (short-lived) country name "United States of Colombia".
Early official U.S. documents betray inconsistent usage; the 1778 Treaty of Alliance with France uses the "the United States of North America" in the first sentence, then uses "the said United States" afterwards; "the United States of America" and "the United States of North America" derive from "the United Colonies of America" and "the United Colonies of North America". The Treaty of Peace and Amity, of September 5 1795, contains the usages "the United States of North America", "citizens of the United States", and "American Citizens".
Semantic divergence among Anglophones did not affect the Spanish colonies. In 1801, the document titled Letter to American Spaniards — published in French (1799), in Spanish (1801), and in English (1808 — might have influenced Venezuela's Act of Independence and its 1811 constitution.
The Latter-day Saints' Articles of Faith refer to the American continent as where they are to build Zion. . The Old Catholic Encyclopedia's usage of America is as "the Western Continent or the New World". It discusses American republics, ranging from the U.S. to the "the republic of Mexico, the Central American republics of Guatemala, Honduras, San Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Leon, and Panama; the Antillian republics of Haiti, Santo Domingo, and Cuba, and the South American republics of Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay, the Argentine, and Chile"..
The use of American as a national demonym for U.S. nationals is challenged, primarily by Latin Americans.
The Luxury Link travel guide advises U.S. nationals in Mexico to not refer to themselves as Americans, because Mexicans consider themselves Americans. The Getting Through Customs website advises business travellers not to use "in America" as a U.S. reference when conducting business in Brazil.
In Latin America, usage not distinguishing between the word American denoting the Western hemisphere's landmass, and American exclusively denoting U.S. nationals is perceived as disadvantageous to Latin American countries dealing with U.S. foreign policy.
Moreover, the Royal Spanish Academy advises against using americanos exclusively for U.S. nationals:
English translation:
In Canada, their southern neighbor is seldom referred to as "America", with "the United States", "the U.S.", or (informally) "the States" used instead, although "American" is the usual demonym in modern Canadian English. Modern Canadians rarely apply the term American to themselves — some Canadians resent being referred to as Americans because of mistaken assumptions that they are U.S. citizens or an inability—particularly of people overseas—to distinguish Canadian English and American English accents. Some Canadians protested the use of American as a national demonym in the past. When Canadians need to refer to the larger continental context, North American (or North and South American), not "American", is the term in current usage.
People of U.S. ethnic origin in Canada are categorized as "American (U.S.)" by Statistics Canada for purposes of census counts.
The terms Étasunien and Étatsunisien are sometimes used in Québec French as a demonym for American citizens in place of the more common Américain.
Generally, Americano denotes "U.S. citizen" in Portugal. Currently, Brazilians are brasileiros (Brazilians), rarely americanos (Americans), although the usage was different in the nineteenth century. Usage of americano to exclusively denote people and things of the U.S. is discouraged by the Academia das Ciências de Lisboa (Lisbon Academy of Sciences), because the specific word estado-unidense (also estadunidense) clearly denotes a "United Statesman" and a "United Stateswoman".
Brazilians refer to themselves as "americanos", in general, and "Latino-americanos", in particular. Still, the word "América" has, in the past fifteen years, become a popular synonym for the U.S., especially in the big cities influenced by U.S. consumerism culture, especially after the great Brazilian immigration to the U.S. in the mid-1990s. In parts of the country "norte-americano" denotes someone from the U.S. and "América" denotes the other American countries.
The United States Census Bureau reports 7.3 percent of U.S. residents to be of "United States or American" ancestry based on responses to the 2000 Census long-form questionnaire (1 in 6 sample). Discrete responses of United States and American or an ambiguous response or a state-name response (excluding Hawaii) were aggregated as "United States or American". Distinct racial and ethnic groups such as "American Indian", "Mexican American", "African American", and "Hawaiian" were coded separately.
Diplomatic usage of American varies; in a speech given in Honduras, ex-President Clinton, speaking in Spanish, said: ". . . todos somos americanos" (. . . we are all Americans), as translated by the Washington Post newspaper and the CNN television program.
American in the Associated Press Stylebook (1994) is defined as: "An acceptable description for a resident of the United States. It also may be applied to any resident or citizen of nations in North or South America". Elsewhere, the AP Stylebook indicates that "United States" must "be spelled out when used as a noun. Use U.S. (no space) only as an adjective".
The New York Times Manual of Style and Usage (1999) America entry reads: the "terms America, American(s) and Americas refer not only to the United States, but to all of North America and South America. They may be used in any of their senses, including references to just the United States, if the context is clear. The countries of the Western Hemisphere are collectively the Americas ".
International law uses "U.S. citizen" in defining a citizen of the United States, not American citizen, which is an informal, non-legal usage; an excerpt from the North American Free Trade Agreement:
American is defined in the sixth edition (1990) of Black's Law Dictionary as: "Of or pertaining to the United States". The two more recent (1999 and 2004) editions have no such entry.
Products that are labelled, advertised, and marketed in the U.S. as "American Made" must be "all or virtually all made in the U.S." The Federal Trade Commission, to prevent deception of customers and unfair competition, considers an unqualified claim of "American Made" to expressly claim exclusive manufacture in the U.S. "The FTC Act gives the Commission the power to bring law enforcement actions against false or misleading claims that a product is of U.S. origin."
In Spanish, estadounidense, estado-unidense or estadunidense are preferred to americano for U.S. nationals; the latter tends to refer to any resident of the Americas and not necessarily from the United States. In Portuguese, estado-unidense(or estadunidense) is the recommended form by language regulators but today it is less frequently used than americano and norte-americano. Latin Americans also may employ the term norteamericano (North American), which itself conflates the United States and Canada. However, this term may also refer to anyone from the North American continent, which also includes Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean.
Worldwide, speakers of Esperanto refer to the United States of America with the term "Usono", which is borrowed from Frank Lloyd Wright's word Usonia. Thus a citizen or national of the United States is referred to as an "usonano". The Esperantist terms for North Americans and for South Americans, by continent rather than country, are Nordamerikano and Sudamerikano, respectively.
Adjectives derived from "United States" (such as United Statian) appear awkward in English, but similar constructions exist in Spanish (estadounidense or estadinense), Portuguese (estado-unidense, estadunidense) and Finnish (yhdysvaltalainen: from Yhdysvallat, United States); and also in French (états-unien) and Italian (statunitense).
The word Gringo is widely used in parts of Latin America in reference to U.S. residents, often in a pejorative way but not necessarily. Yanqui (Yankee) is also very common in some regions. In Argentina, Uruguay and some regions of Brazil, the word Gringo is also used for any foreigner, not just for U.S. Citizens.
With the 1994 passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement, the following words were used to label the United States Section of that organization: in French, étatsunien; in Spanish, estadounidense. In English the adjective used to indicate relation to the United States is U.S.

Maben Fire Department Chief Justin Collins resigned Tuesday, citing personnel issues, according to sources.
Oktibbeha County Fire Coordinator Kirk Rosenhan said his departure is strictly an internal situation and a personnel matter.
"This present situation is the culmination of several issues that have developed over the last 1 (1/2) years," Rosenhan said. "They involve some personalities and related situations."
Collins, who had led the department since May 2011, reportedly claimed that 24 of 25 of the volunteers on the department's staff were also tendering their resignations.
Rosenhan said he was unaware that Collins had 25 active firefighters on his staff.
He said the department will hold a meeting to appoint an interim chief out of the department's active members shortly. The town of Maben will then have to decide how to fill Collins' vacancy on a permanent basis.
Rosenhan said Collins' departure will not affect Oktibbeha County Fire Services' ability to provide emergency response to residents.
"The usual mutual aid resources from Mathiston, Bell Schoolhouse, and Adaton/Self Creek (Volunteer Fire Departments) are available as requested.
"We're stepping forward and not worrying about the past," Rosenhan added. "We ensure the volunteer firefighters of Oktibbeha County are on the job and dedicated to continuing to provide services to the county."
The Maben Fire Department is run by the town of Maben and funded by Oktibbeha County.

Kankaria Lake
This man-made lake was developed by Qutb-Ud-Din in 1451. Today it is a popular recreational spot for the residents of Ahmedabad. The lake is surrounded by beautiful gardens and also houses an aquarium on its banks. Located in the middle of the lake is a beautiful island palace that was visited frequently by Nur Jahan and Jehangir during the Mughal period.Teen Darwaza
These arched gateways were built by Sultan Ahmed Shah. They formed the royal entrance to the Maidan Shah or Royal Square. From here the Sultans watched the processions from the palace to the Jama Masjid.Hatheesing Jain TempleEmbellished with intricate carvings and built in white marble, the Hatheesing Jain temple is one of the most ornate Jain temples in Ahmedabad. It was built in the nineteenth century by a rich Jain merchant and is dedicated to Dharmnath, the 15th Jain Apostle.Sarkhej RozaThe Sarkhej Roza is one of the most elegant and unique architectural complexes in the city. These buildings do not have arches and there has been a remarkable use of pierced stone trellises.Shaking MinaretsNear the Ahmedabad railway station is the mosque of Sidi Bashir. People come to this mosque to see the pair of shaking minarets. The amazing thing about the minarets is that if one is shaken the other also rocks in sympathy. It is said that the minarets were built in this way to avoid damage during the earthquakes. The British partially dismantled the pillars in an attempt to understand how they were built. However, they were unable to find out, nor could they replace dismantled parts.Sidi Saiyad MosqueOne of the most famous mosques of Ahmedabad, Sidi Saiyad Mosque was constructed in 1571. The mosque has ten semicircular windows, each carrying a splendid filigree screen. The intricate carvings on the windows represent the intertwining of the branches of a tree.Dada Hari Vav (Stepped Well)This well was built in 1501 to provide a cool resting place and water to the travellers. The stepped well is among the finest examples of Gujarati architecture. Even on the hottest days, the well remains cool.Jama Masjidb
Built in 1423, the Jama Masjid is one of the most beautiful mosques in western India, providing a fine example of exquisite workmanship.Rani Sipri Mosque
Another beautiful mosque is the Rani Sipri mosque, built by the Queen of Mahmud Shah Begda in 1514. After her death she was buried in the premises of the mosque itself.Gandhi Ashram
This ashram, founded in 1915, was the starting point of Mahatma Gandhi's Dandi Yatra in protest of the British salt laws. It was an important base for India's freedom movement.The Calico Museum
This museum of textiles displays antique and modern textiles. It is housed in a carved wooden haveli and exhibits rare tapestries, wall hangings and costumes. Some of the old weaving machines are also kept here. The museum's collection dates back to the 17th century and it also has an excellent reference library on textiles.NC Mehta Museum
The NC Mehta Museum houses a spectacular collection of miniatures from various Indian painting schools.The Shreyas Folk MuseumThis museum displays some of the finest examples of the traditional arts & crafts of Gujarat. A must-see for those interested in folk art
Gujarati cuisine is delicious, almost strictly vegetarian and is served traditionally on large silver or stainless steel platters. One turns vegetarian out of preference, due to its varied and palate-pleasing choices. Some could find typical Gujarati food a little sweet.
Besides the many traditional haunts across the city, visitors can choose from a number of restaurants that serve different cuisines.
Chinubhai Centre
Ashram road
Makar Sankranti
This festival is celebrated all over the country, but in Gujarat - and Ahmedabad in particular - the day is celebrated as a Kite Festival.

I read Lissey's Story, which I liked very much. That's the only book by him I read so far, but I have the first three parts of the Dark Tower somewhere in my book shelf and I intend to read those.
I know quite a few of the movies derived from his books. To this day I can't look at Tim Curry without remembering Pennywise (...which probably contributes to my thinking that the actor looks creepy as hell).

We're still enamored with conventional small-blocks, and this month we put together the ultimate thumper for any street machine. That means we didn't go overboard with a radical camshaft or shoot for the sky with monster compression; instead, we went big with the cubic inches, installed a hydraulic roller cam, and topped it off with a 4150-style carburetor. To get this build going, we went to our favorite machine shop, A.R.E. Performance & Machine in Simi Valley, California, where we assembled our 434ci small-block combo.
We started by ordering a Dart SHP block outfitted with a stout rotating assembly, including a 4-inch stroker crankshaft, 6-inch rods, and forged pistons. For induction duties, we relied on a pair of healthy lungs from Dart's line of Pro1-series CNC-ported 227 cylinder heads and matched it up with Dart's single-plane manifold.
The 227 heads are impressive to say the least, flowing 309 cfm on the intake and 226 cfm on the exhaust at 0.700-inch lift; granted, we used a rather small hydraulic roller and only took advantage of the flow in the mid 0.550-inch range, but this would allow us to grow into this combination in the months to come. You didn't really think we would stop, here did you?
For this build, we wanted to focus on a truly streetable combination that would make for a good cruiser, both on the open highway and for the occasional romps, be it on the tarmac or on an autocross course. Why the 434? That's easy, we wanted big-block–like torque that could move everything from a portly land yacht to a svelte lightweight that could take advantage of the horsepower-to-weight ratio.
Given the post Westech Performance Group dyno numbers shown on page 24, we think you'll agree, this combination produced a great, usable powerband and could supply a lot of fun in any given chassis. Where do we go from here? Honestly, there's a nitrous system we've been eyeing recently, and a number of dyno tests we've been itching to do. Is there something in particular you would like to see? If so, email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or post it up on our Facebook page at facebook.com/chevyhiperformance and let us know!

Here's a forum game to play.
Someone posts a name of a person from any DW book. Then someone else takes the last letter of that name and uses it as the first letter of a place on DW. Then the next person uses the last letter of the place as the first letter of another person's name on DW, and so on...
For example (Harry Potter theme):
CHARACTER - Hagrid
PLACE - Durmstrang
CHARACTER - Grawp
PLACE - Platform Nine and Three Quarters
CHARACTER - Scabbers
PLACE - Shrieking Shack
You get the idea!
If we get stumped, and I'm sure it'll happen, we'll try another name/place with a different last letter - but give everyone fair time to try and think of an answer first. Any DW character is game, no matter how minor, as is any DW place...city, street, town, burg, room, building, etc.
If a double name or multiple word location is listed, like "Harry Potter", then R is your last letter.....or "Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry" then the last letter is Y.
Also, you can only post one item per post and only once in a row...meaning that you can't answer yourself, but you can answer someone who posted immediately after you.

An investigational drug is one that is under study and is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for sale in the United States. Medical research studies are conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug. These research studies are also called clinical trials. Once an investigational drug has been proven safe and effective in clinical trials, FDA may approve the drug for sale in the United States.
Rintatolimod is an investigational drug that is categorized as a biological response modifier.2 Biological response modifiers (also called immunomodulators) are substances that help to activate, boost, or restore normal immune function.3,4
Rintatolimod was studied for its ability to delay re-emergence of HIV during structured treatment interruptions of antiretroviral therapy (ART). A structured treatment interruption is a planned break from treatment, for example, ART. Structured interruption of ART is not recommended outside of controlled clinical trials.5,6
Rintatolimod was also studied as a medicine to add to ART in people whose current HIV medicines weren't controlling their HIV infection.7 Also, rintatolimod has been studied for various non-HIV-related uses, including to treat chronic fatigue syndrome and cancer and to boost the body's immune response to a flu vaccine.8-11
Clinical trials are conducted in phases. Each phase has a different purpose and helps researchers answer different questions.12
Rintatolimod for HIV treatment has been studied in Phase II clinical trials.2
A Phase II study looked at whether rintatolimod could extend the time a person could stay off HIV medicines during structured interruptions of ART before their HIV began to rebound. (A rebound is when there are detectable levels of HIV in the blood after a period of undetectable levels.) During this study, up to three structured interruptions of ART were planned over a 64-week period. All participants in this study had taken HIV medicines before entering the study (treatment-experienced) and had a viral load level (the amount of HIV in the blood) of less than 50 copies/mL while on ART. The participants were divided into two groups. One group received rintatolimod by intravenous injection twice weekly during the structured interruptions of ART. In the other group (the control group), the participants did not receive rintatolimod during the structured interruptions of ART. The structured interruptions of ART were stopped once a participant's viral load rose to certain detectable levels.5,6
In this study, participants receiving rintatolimod were able to stay off HIV medicines for longer (while maintaining controlled viral load levels) during the initial structured interruption of ART than participants in the control group. The average duration of the first structured treatment interruption in participants receiving rintatolimod was 27 weeks, whereas it was 13 weeks for participants in the control group. CD8 T lymphocytes (a type of immune cell that recognizes and destroys cells infected with microorganisms, such as bacteria or virus) increased more in participants receiving rintatolimod than in participants in the control group. In terms of safety, side effects with use of rintatolimod were described as being generally mild.6
Rintatolimod was also studied in a Phase II trial as a medicine to add to ART in people whose HIV medicines weren't controlling their HIV infection. This study, however, was stopped prior to completion.7
In the Phase II study looking at the use of rintatolimod during structured interruptions of ART, side effects were generally mild and cleared up without treatment.6
Because rintatolimod is still being studied, information on possible side effects of the drug is not complete. As testing of rintatolimod continues, additional information on possible side effects will be gathered.
More information about rintatolimod-related research studies is available from the AIDSinfo database of ClinicalTrials.gov study summaries. Click on the title of any trial in the list to see the ClinicalTrials.gov trial summary and more information about the study.
Participating in a clinical trial can provide benefits. For example, a volunteer participant can benefit from new research treatments before they are widely available. Participants also receive regular and careful medical attention from a research team that includes doctors and other health professionals. However, clinical trials may also involve risks of varying degrees, such as unpleasant, serious, or even life-threatening side effects from the treatment being studied.12
Your health care provider can help you decide whether participating in a clinical trial is right for you. For more information, visit NIH Clinical Research Trials and You.

History of Congress and the Capitol
This is the story of one of the world's great experiments in government by the people.
For more than two centuries, a new Congress has convened every two years following elections that determine all the seats in the House and one-third of those in the Senate. While the individuals change, the institution has endured-through civil and world wars, waves of immigration and great migrations, and continuous social and technological change.
After the civil war, the country faced dramatic change as a landscape of farms and villages yielded to factories and sprawling cities. An abundance of labor and plentiful raw materials brought prosperity to many, and the image of the United States as a beacon of freedom and opportunity encouraged immigration from all parts of the world. Many workers, including immigrants, racial minorities, and children, however, often toiled long hours in dangerous conditions for little pay. By the turn of the century, reformers in Congress were pressing for new ways to make government more responsive to the needs of poor farmers, laborers, and urban dwellers.
Letting the Voters Choose
For Congress's first 125 years, senators were elected by state legislatures. This system proved troublesome almost from the beginning. Political party conflicts frequently delayed the selection, causing some states to go without full representation in the Senate for extended periods.
The resulting deadlocks seriously disrupted state business. Political bosses frequently manipulated Senate elections to advance their own economic interests. Reformers responded by campaigning for a constitutional amendment that would take the selection of senators out of the hands of corruptible state legislatures and give it directly to the people. With ratification in 1913 of the Seventeenth Amendment to the Constitution, the Senate, like the House, could truly call itself "the people's branch."
A More Businesslike Body
As America grew more complicated in the early 20th century, the Senate tried to make governing more efficient. The Industrial Revolution created a complex economy and brought vast social changes. The arrival of the activist Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson brought new challenges to congressional authority. The Senate responded by centralizing and streamlining operations. Party caucus chairs (representing members of each party) and committee leaders increasingly controlled the agenda. They were less successful in limiting debates. As constituents demanded more services, senators gained small support staffs and space in a permanent office building.
Congress hoped to improve the lives of American Indians with the Dawes Act of 1887, but what was meant as reform instead disrupted the Indians' cultural traditions without improving their economic conditions. Previously, the government had established reservations for Native Americans, which tribes ran as sovereign nations. Massachusetts Republican Henry L. Dawes, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, sponsored legislation to transfer these communally owned lands from tribes to individuals and to grant citizenship to those who participated. The Dawes Act aimed to encourage Indians to become farmers and to assimilate into American society, but it also permitted the Indians to sell their surplus land. By 1900, Indian-held land had decreased significantly from the 138 million acres under Native American control in 1887. The Indian Reorganization Act of 1934 restored tribal authority over reservations and returned remaining lands to tribal ownership. By the beginning of the 21st century, about 54 million acres were held by American Indians.
After the Civil War, Senate activity shifted from individuals to groups of members formed into committees. This gave tremendous power to important committee chairmen. By 1900, four senators known as the "Senate Four" dominated the most important Senate committees: Nelson Aldrich of Rhode Island (Finance); William Allison of Iowa (Appropriations); John C. Spooner of Wisconsin (Rules); and Orville Platt of Connecticut (Judiciary).
These close friends met regularly to share information and plan strategy. As one newspaper reporter wrote, "These four men can block and defeat anything that the president or the House may desire." Their links to special interests, and their resistance to policies favored by President Theodore Roosevelt, provoked public concerns that led to calls for reform, including a constitutional amendment for direct election of senators.
"These four men can block and defeat anything that the president or the House may desire."
— A newspaper reporter of the time, February 19, 1903
How could it happen? That's what people asked after the Titanic went down with many prominent Americans among the approximately 1,500 who died. The Senate asked too. Although the ship was British, there were lessons to be learned by all seafaring nations. In 1912, a special Senate subcommittee convened to investigate the Titanic disaster.
Surviving passengers and crew, and company officials, testified to the subcommittee with vivid and dramatic accounts that drew eager attention from the press and public. The hearings were the first to be held in the Senate's ornate new Caucus Room. Though the Titanic investigation did not lead to criminal prosecutions, the subcommittee did recommend laws to improve ship safety.
Isaac Bassett walked the Senate halls for 64 years. Appointed a page in 1831 by Daniel Webster, Bassett served later as messenger and then as Assistant Doorkeeper before his death in 1895. In his later years, reporters and visitors often sought out the old man, eager to hear stories of the Senate's "golden era."
Bassett is famed for turning back the clock—literally—to let senators pass last-minute laws. His true legacy, however, is on paper. Planning to write a memoir, Bassett kept careful notes, clipped news items, and wrote short vignettes of people he'd met and events he'd seen. Bassett died before finishing it. Fortunately, the manuscript survives, a rare firsthand account of the 19th-century Senate.

Posted 12 January 2013 - 04:06 AM
i mean, these days you can buy unused piece for less then 200 $.
that is significantly cheaper then any other strobe currently being popular.
is really SB 105 that useless or has much less power or what is the trick?
thanks for opinions.
P.S. i am aware of current process where nikon changes 103s with 105 s for free, but

FWIW, if you've still got your heart set on SB-105s (they're compact, run off of AA batteries, and are powerful), I've got 6 - 2 working great and 4 in various stages of working/not-working - that are just taking up space on my shelf. Contact me privately (firstname.lastname@example.com) if you're interested in giving them a new home.

According to the folks I talk to at Nikon here in LA, they stopped that program in the middle of 2012-ish.

About Nikon Europe, i managed to change old forgotten 103 for 105 somewhere mid summer 2012, guess i was lucky then.
After that bought another 2 in ebay, so dont really need another. Thanks for offer anyway, maybe some1 else will catch you when
it is now obvious that nothing is wrong with 105s.

I made myself a ruffely camera strap….my husband hates it. I told him I'd make him a manly cover if he actually used the camera…but he quickly informed me that NO covers are manly….manly men don't use strap covers. Good to know. :) Anyways, I love this cover.
My first cover drove me nuts because it slid from side to side and I was constantly centering it. This one has tapered ends and a small slit in the side that you slide the strap into. There are oodles of tutorials for camera strap covers…but if I make another one I'll snap some pictures for ya.
Maybe if my hubby did use the camera I wouldn't have to take so many bathroom mirror pictures of myself. :) The blue fabric is by Anna Marie Horner & the dot is from Amy Butler's Lotus line.
ps. the Modern Chain Quilt is being featured over at a Quilt Story today…check it out here!

When it comes to choosing outdoor animal statues, you want to choose animals that will not be found in every garden space. There are a number of animals to choose from, depending on the theme you choose. One furry creature that is seen often enough is the meerkat. But not many people know its true meaning. Meerkats are used in a variety of settings, and have been seen as characters in everything from The Lion King to fantasy novels. A meerkat statue in your home is a way of implementing a wild animal theme, without going as fierce as say, a tiger. Here are some ways to do so.
Who didn't fall in love with Timon the Meerkat in The Lion King series? You can bring Timon right into your own back yard with a meerkat sculpture that creates the scene just perfectly. If you are looking for something a little more whimsical, Meerkats that hear no evil, see no evil, and speak no evil as you welcome your guests will be a delight for anyone you invite to your home.
For those that don't know what a Meerkat is, it is easy to shy away from something that looks a little pesky. However, these adorable fur creatures while they are known for their peskiness, it is this very quality that endears them to all ages. Invite a Meerkat into your home or garden and create a whimsical enchanting place by doing so.

Hey All,
I am in abit of a dilemma, my XFX4890 is showing signs or failure, so i am now using an old 8800GTX. I only play World of Warcraft and Counter Strike: Global Offensive, so not massively graphical games to be fair.
My system runs these games pretty well, around 150+fps in CS:GO and since the 8800GTX i get around 40-60fps in WoW, it use to be higher with the 4890.
I have a Core2Duo E6850 @ 3GHz with just 4GB of RAM and a Crucial M4 SSD, Its a pretty old setup i have had since 2008! But it seems to run great for what i use it for...
My dilemma is do i upgrade to something like a Nvidia 650ti now or do i save the money and buy a new mobo / cpu / ram / gpu around Christmas time when there should be some good deals on, however if i buy a new card now... i could use that in a new system in the future... but then the card will be out of date! Its like a catch22, plus Christmas is expensive for me as it is... and the word "Christmas Bonus" this year is met with angry faces.
So i just wanted some opinions really on what you would do, because i only play the two games... i don't think i need massive amounts of power, however maybe i dont know what im missing by not having a high spec machine, i suppose if i played WoW on a i5 / 16gb / 650ti setup i would notice a huge difference and wonder how i managed for so long!
Honest opinions welcome x

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

For my gaming machine, I was looking into getting this motherboard and using it with my Athlon X3 OC @ B50 processor. The best part is it comes with 8GB of DDR3 ram! The reason why I'm upgrading is:
1. I don't want my wallet to get raped on ram prices.
2. In the future I want to do SLI. My current ASrock only supports X-fire.
4. I can always upgrade to an AMD 8350 in the future.
5. 6 gb/s SATA (Currently have SATA 2)
6. Lossless Audio never hurt anyone.
What do you guys think? Good quality Mobo? Got another (better) suggestion? Let me know.
Best Answer f0rk_b0mb , 18 June 2013 - 15:47
A little late update but, I went ahead and got a new mobo, ram and 1045t. Pretty decent upgrade.
