Windhoek — While the coast is crowded with visitors and accommodation is hard to come by, the majestic Etosha National Park still has accommodation for holiday-goers without prior bookings and Namibians are encouraged to go and experience the beauty of the park and its abundant wildlife.
The coastal towns of Swakopmund and Walvis Bay have already run out of accommodation with residents renting out their flats, while there are those who are undeterred by the accommodation shortage and have taken to converting their vehicles into their sleeping quarters.
Speaking to New Era yesterday, Tangeni Kaulu, Namibia Wildlife Resorts (NWR) Sales and Trade Manager said Etosha still has openings available in the five camps of Onkoshi, Namutoni, Halali, Okaukuejo and Dolomite.
"They have different family accommodation comprising of double and bush chalets with barbeque facilities. The park also has camping sites with ablution facilities at a cost of N$200 per site," Kaulu said. The NWR is currently offering a special 25 percent discount per night and 35 percent for three-night bookings.
The park is very safe provided visitors adhere to the park's rules and regulations. According to her, the park does not offer camping equipment, therefore people should bring along their own tents and other basic needs such as sunglasses and sunscreen lotions.
Etosha falls in the malaria zone because of the water holes and Kaulu advises visitors intending to camp to take along mosquito repellent and long-sleeve protective clothing. The rooms are equipped with mosquito nets.
Kaulu said the camps also have tourist shops. Namibians are particularly encouraged to bring their families, especially children to experience and see different wild animals and to appreciate the country's beauty.
"The kids are being taught about different things in school such as animals, but they have never seen them in real life. It is good to bring them so they can learn easier," according to Kaulu.
Etosha is a huge national park of mixed forest and grassland centred on a large saltpan. It is home to a great variety and number of game, which is easy to find as the animals congregate at different times around the waterholes.
Wildebeest, zebra, impala, gazelle, kudu, elephant, giraffe and lion are all common sights. Etosha is also a good place for birds, with plenty of water birds on the lakes and weaverbirds and hornbills in the trees.

Beautiful rooms, staff is super friendly. We stayed there twice in two different rooms. Both were clean and beautifully decorated.The host is super friendly and very knowledgeable. he helped us to get around Maputo and discover a few gems in the (otherwise not so beautiful) city. The area seemed to be safe, still there was a guard 24h outside the house. Would go back there every time!

Boy band CN Blue is set to release a DVD of its first performance from its Asian concert tour, which took place last September.
The DVD was filmed at Olympic Park in Seoul, and the group's agency said it includes both onstage performances and clips from backstage. It also contains footage showing how the film was made.
It will go on sale to the general public on Jan. 31 along with a 100-page photo album.
CN Blue is also gearing up for its first performance in the United States. On March 9, FT Island will join CN Blue at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles. Last week, a representative from FNC Music, which represents the two groups, said that the concert will be a great push forward for the stars as they look to enter the global music market. It will also be the first time that the two bands will share a stage.
CN Blue made its debut in Japan last year with an album release there. Within five days of the release, the band topped charts in several Asian countries.

This document was created by the Land Titles Office of Victoria (LTO) which is part of the Department of Sustainability and Environment. It can also be accessed through the Department of Sustainability and Environment website (see under "Links" below).
A purchaser of real estate, will acquire what is known as an "interest" in the property purchased. However, a purchaser will not be the legal owner of the property until their interest is registered with the Land Titles Office of Victoria. This means that there is a risk that someone else could register their own interest in the property before the purchaser registers theirs. By lodging a caveat a purchaser can prevent others from registering interests ahead of theirs.
The word caveat means beware, and the lodging of a caveat over a property is a way telling anyone who wants to deal with the property to be aware of the fact that someone else's interest already has priority. In other words, a caveat is a written warning to anyone who checks the Certificate of Title of the property that the person who lodged the caveat (known as the "caveator") has an interest in it. The Registrar of Titles cannot deal with the property without first notifying the caveator. (See also Withdrawal of Caveat.)
When a purchaser signs a contract to purchase real estate, the purchaser acquires what is known as a "caveatable interest". This means that the purchaser is entitled to register a caveat to protect that interest. Other people can also acquire a "caveatable interest", for example:
It is best to have the caveat lodged by legal representative, so that advice can be obtained as to whether a caveatable interest actually exists, whether there are any contractual prohibitions on the lodging of a caveat, and whether further registrations to be made on the caveator's behalf may be affected (a carelessly lodged caveat could prevent a purchaser's own Transfer of Land from being registered or cause a lender to refuse to provide funds on settlement day).
A caveat should be lodged as soon as a caveatable interest is acquired (usually as soon as the purchaser's offer has been accepted by the vendor of the property).
Sometimes a real estate contract for an off-the-plan purchase will prohibit the lodging of a caveat. In these cases a caveat should be lodged as soon as the plan has been registered and the property is allocated its own volume and folio numbers.
In all cases, legal advice should be sought before the caveat is lodged.
A purchaser who lodges a caveat will have to pay the Land Titles Office a registration fee of approximately $70.90. If the caveat is lodged through a lawyer a fee will be charged for legal advice, preparation of the caveat, and the actual lodging of the caveat at the Land Titles Office (usually $110).
The risk in any particular case depends on the individual circumstances. Here are some examples of problems that could be dealt with by lodging a caveat:
If a person with a competing caveatable interest lodges a caveat and gains priority ahead of a purchaser, the purchaser may incur considerable time and expense in ensuring that the caveator's interest in the property is dealt with and eventually disposed of.
The lodging of a caveat by a person with a competing caveatable interest could force a purchaser to delay settlement. This could have a flow-on affect if the purchaser's loan expires and the purchaser cannot obtain the finance to complete the purchase.
This document should be completed in accordance with the instructions contained in the guide (see Caveat - Land Titles Office - Guide to Caveat under "Links" below).

At level 3s, which is grade level, it was at 34 percent, 13 points better than last year. Level 4s roughly doubled, from 5 to 10 percent; and Level 5s remained at 3 percent of the third graders.
At ABC, level 1s and level 2s in math both grew, to where 46 percent of the school's 37 third graders have a level of achievement below passing. Level 3s in math dropped from 37 to 30 percent, while level 4s and 5s were both pretty constant, from 20 to 19 percent of 4s, and 6 to 5 percent of 5s.
At ABC, level 5s in reading shrank by a tiny amount, from 11 to 8 percent, while level 4s contracted considerably, from 40 to 25 percent of third graders. The largest growth was in level 2s, considered behind grade level, which expanded from 9 percent of third graders, to fully one-third. Level 1s also shrank by only a little, from 17 to 14 percent.

I'm Dick Eliis, I'm the Head of Department of American and Canadian Studies at Birmingham. We run a very inter-disciplinary department, which I hope shows up by the pictures behind me which are prints by the artist Eduardo Paolozzi who was very active just after the war. He went to Paris to research how he would like to develop his arts and he discovered American G.I's clutching their comics, magazines and journals that had been sent over from American, and you can see he came across startling images, very technicolour. Very different from the world of black and white rationing that existed in the UK after the war. This was a very exciting experience for him and turned it into these collages that are kind of funny and ironic and kind of affectionate and sexy in a way. So we're really excited to discover these trans-Atlantic connections that link up the visual arts, writing and all these other dimensions of interaction between American and British culture.
My own research in particular focuses on The Beats and Beat writing, both in America - such figures as Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg, but also the way in which there's been a trans-Atlantic influence of The Beats on such poets as Roger McGough and the lively exchanges that occured across the Altantic which culminated in a famous reading at the Albert Hall where Allen Ginsberg attracted an audience in the thousands, which almost seems inconceivable today but it was a very exciting time.
My other main research area is in African-American writing and culture from the lmid nineteenth century. I'm looking at such writers as Harriet Wilson, Fredrick Douglass, and writers like that who were exploring the problems of being black in America at that particularly problematic time just before slavery would lead to the erruption of the civil war and the whole break up of the idea of what America might mean and its reconstitution with the abolition of slavery in the famous emacipation declaration by Abraham Lincoln.
So you can see that we roam across the nineteenth and twentieth century, trying to select particular areas of inter-disciplinary excitement which are looking at the ways in which certain conjunctions in history there are dramatic changes which evelve and influence the whole of the course of western history.

Template talk:Sign
How to use
POKéMON RBY
Sign design!
First of all, since the sign designs differ from game to game, put the version:
RBY = Red, Blue and Yellow
GSC = Gold, Silver and Crystal
RS = Ruby and Sapphire
E = Emerald
FRLG = FireRed and LeafGreen
FRLGspeech = FireRed and LeafGreen speech bubble design
FRLGbattle = FireRed and LeafGreen battle dialogue design
DPcity = Diamond and Pearl city sign design (grey)
DPcitymap = Diamond and Pearl city map sign design (brown)
DProute = Diamond and Pearl route sign design (green)
DPtip = Diamond and Pearl Trainer Tip sign design (blue)
BW = Black and White
BWbuilding = Black and White buildings
{{sign| DPcitymap |
Then out of the following:
Header, always put this first:
For city/town signs with a map, include this next, providing only the full name of the city/town (eg. Twinleaf Town, with the space), and the image will be displayed if it exists (image name should then be NAME_Sign_Map.png):
{{sign|DPcitymap|map| full name of city/town (with capitals and any spaces) }}
Then comes the content, add the title parameter to put a bolded title:
{{sign|DPcitymap|title| put title here }}
{{sign|DPcitymap| put text here }}
{{sign|DPcitymap| put text here (will add a new line) }}
{{sign|DPcitymap| put text here (will add a new line) }}
After everything, close with footer:
A better way to present stuff written on signs, notices, and perhaps even Trainer Tips soon etc. Will be adding the designs for other versions later.
Please post here for suggestions or before changing it in any way. -–<×vVvvv τλικ to ς1tHςι4γ3r ^^vVv×>–- 15:09, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
- What about fonts? ht14 03:06, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
- If you mean displaying the sign text with the font used in the game, unfortunately that would depend on whether or not the font is installed on the server, and whether or not the browser used to view can read that font. In my opinion, it would be best to keep it to the default font for the moment. Though I did find a script collection of the fonts used in RSE and FRLG here. -–<×vVvvv τλικ to ς1tHςι4γ3r ^^vVv×>–- 05:28, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
New designs
Yessir, they have arrived. The sign designs for Emerald and FireRed/LeafGreen! They're as close to the real as I could get them. Also, map images are able to be added to the Diamond/Pearl city map signs. I will be personally uploading all the map images when I get to them, then adding them to the appropriate articles. -–<×vVvvv τλικ to ς1tHςι4γ3r ^^vVv×>–- 09:25, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
I added the RBY design. OK? I think we can't get the little Poké balls at the corners...

Japanese specific variants for Generation III text box
Would it be possible to add the Japanese variants of the text box from the Generation III games? It's because in the Japanese versions of RSEFRLG, the borders are wider and it would be nice to replicate that difference, IMO. One example of where it would be useful is the Faraway Island article. SatoMew 13:57, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
It is transcluded on over 250 pages. Probably should be protected. --Abcboy (talk) 23:01, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
- FRLG speech bubble is causing vertical lines to appear along the page in Apple iPad Safari. --Abcboy (talk) 19:17, 2 November 2012 (UTC)
Protection and Request
Can someone please protect this template. Also, I would like to request to add signs for B2W2 and XY. --Cinday123 (Talk) 11:03, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
- Aren't BW2 signs exactly the same as BW? Also, this page hasn't been vandalized so there doesn't seem to be a reason to protect it. Protected for autoconfirmed users is the best thing to do, if it gets protected at all. The reason I say this is because I highly doubt that the admins want to do all the signs, and most editors on this page aren't admins. I'd have to check the X and Y signs, but I believe they fade into the background near the edges, which could be a problem. I don't think MediaWiki supports translucency minus for shadows and images. Pikachu Bros. (talk) 17:19, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
- I think it will be okay to leave this unprotected for now. If anyone knows how to make the XY signs, feel free to add them. If not, we can try to get it added in the near future. --Pokemaster97 21:18, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
Suggesting a replacementThe look of our HTML <pre> tag could be updated to something like this. This would replace this template altogether and allow for a consistent look of quotes from the games (and perhaps other texts). Doing this is particularly relevant given the mobile version of the site (in which this template is broken) and the lack of Generation VI designs.
This is how the <pre> tag looks right now here:

When we are at home, save for the five exciting minutes when we come from work/grocery/life events, Rhett Butler is a pretty sedentary dog.
For example:
However, all bets are off when he gets to take a car ride to Detroit to visit his Grandma and Grandpa, aka my in-laws. The minute you get off the interstate and start making your way through their neighborhood, his interest is piqued. He sniffs and once you turn down their road, he is THE WORLD'S MOST EXCITED DOG, OH MY GOD MOM, GET ME THERE, GET ME THERE, GET ME THERE. This past weekend he and B took a trip to Detroit (for a wedding) and it pretty much went down like it always does: insane excitement at the prospect of Grandma & Grandpa's house.
The reason for this insane excitement is two-fold. One, my father-in-law is willing to pet Rhett Butler for extensive periods of time, while allowing the dog to sit in his lap (they enjoy watching football, the Discovery Channel and other various learning shows) and the fact that my in-laws have carpet.
In case you were wondering, carpet allows traction and back scratching and belly rolling, unlike his parents oh-so-cruel hardwood floors. Carpet allows small beagle whippets to run in tight circles, toss their toys with reckless abandon while "swimming" on their backs and generally act like total fools. So much so that Rhett Butler came home withrug burnon his belly. B told me that every time the urge struck him, or during any moment of excitment, Rhett Butler would army-crawl with a toy in his mouth, all through the living room, happy as a clam. His insane "YAY CARPET, YAY GRANDPA, YAY DETROIT" mentality goes so far as to turn him from a regular old beagle on a walk to something more like this:
My mother-in-law actually got a few great photos of him spazzing out, but technology is conspiring against me so I can't share them. Womp womp.
Don't be alarmed though. We are back in Chicago and back to the same old same old.
We fully anticipate the dog asking for carpet for Christmas. He is going to be so disappointed.

News of Riverton, Lander and Fremont County, Wyoming, from the Ranger's award winning journalists.
Second Amendment rights infringement needs corrected
Feb 14, 2014 - Jack Gordon, Dubois
Who is Steve Barlow? According to a story in the Jan. 18 issue of The Ranger, Mr. Barlow is the Central Wyoming College campus safety director. The story further enlightens us to the fact that Mr. Barlow had administrative authority to infringe on our Second Amendment rights.
Somehow, I forgot to remember ever voting for, hiring, vetting, anointing, or in any way abrogating my Second Amendment rights to a non-law enforcement state employee or, for that matter, to a college employee anywhere in this state.
My previous hope had been in the last legislative session that HB 105 would have borne fruit and this defect in state law corrected. As such was not the case, I ardently request that our legislators undertake a mission to correct this significant assault on our Second Amendment rights.
Don't you find it disconcerting that our gun-banning neighbors to the south, in Colorado, protected their citizens' rights on Colorado college campuses while Wyoming has not?

Students interested in applying for a CASPER Fellowship should begin the application process by reading the descriptions of the active research areas within CASPER which are listed below.
A brief description of each research area along with selected papers and related links are supplied to provide applicants with relevant background material. A more comprehensive description with a list of selected CASPER papers and background reading material is included as a single pdf document below.
Selected CASPER papers and background reading material.
CASPER - HIDPL/SSL Summaries
Low Velocity Impact Studies/Dust Detector Design - Truell Hyde, Lorin Matthews, Jorge Carmona, Mike Cook, Jimmy Schmoke
Dust Crystals in an RF Reference Cell - Truell Hyde, Lorin Matthews, Jie Kong, Ke Qiao, Bernie Smith, Jorge Carmona, Mike Cook, Jimmy Schmoke
Dust particles immersed within a plasma environment acquire an electric charge. If the ratio of the inter-particle potential energy to the average kinetic energy is high enough the particles can form a "liquid" structure with short-range ordering, a crystalline structure with longer range ordering or a mixture of the two. A variety of experiments within complex plasmas investigating nano- and meso-scale physics will be on-going during the coming summer. Additionally, the S100 nano-manipulator brought on-line in June 2005, provides unparalleled perturbative capabilities for the lab. Complete lab diagnostics and theoretical simulation capabilities as well as full-time technical support providing machining capability and electronics R&D are also available to Fellows working within the HIDPL. A list of current projects available along with background reading material, is appended to this document.

CASPER ASSTG Summaries
Numerical Simulation of Plasma Crystals - Truell Hyde, Lorin Matthews, Ke Qiao, Jie Kong
Kuiper Belt Studies - Truell Hyde, Ray Nazzario
Recent observations show that binary Kuiper Belt objects exist contrary to most theoretical expectations. (These are the same objects that recently resulted in the 'demotion' of Pluto.) Although their creation presents problems in current models, the inclusion of a third body (ex. one of the outer planets or a forming protoplanet) often provides several of the necessary conditions for their formation. The presence of such a perturbing body can also provide clearing of the primordial Kuiper Belt while at the same time producing quasi-stable, longer-lived binary Kuiper belt objects. Numerical investigations involving a fifth order Runge-Kutta algorithm are employed to examine the situation described. Up to thousands of Kuiper belt sized objects are simulated to look for the formation of binaries (along with structure of the resulting belt) in both solar systems and protoplanetary situations. The interparticle gravitational interactions can create one of several effects; scattering into the Oort cloud, collisions with nearby growing protoplanets, formation of binary pairs, or creation of a single Kuiper belt object. Additionally, the initial location of the progenitors of the Kuiper belt objects may also have a significant effect on binary formation with objects near resonances tending not to form binary objects. A list of current projects available within the CASPER theory group, along with background reading material, is appended to this document.
Numerical Simulation of Preplanetary Dust Aggregation - Truell Hyde, Lorin Matthews
Recent data from the Hubble telescope show that planetary formation from the cloud of gas and dust orbiting a new protostar is a much more efficient process than first believed and may occur on a time scale of less than 10 million years. Initially uncharged grains in space and laboratory plasma environments become charged due to currents driven by potential differences in the dusty plasma. Certain macroscopic effects such as coagulation of smaller grains into larger fluffy aggregates are then affected by the grain charge. The charge distribution on the aggregate structure itself appears to play a role in determining the coagulation rate for the dust population. As particles collide, a numerical code can be used to determine the effect of the dipole and higher multipole charge distributions on the openness of the resultant fractal aggregate and the coagulation rates of the particles. A list of current projects available within the CASPER theory group, along with background reading material, is appended to this document.
Gravitoelectrodynamics in Saturn's Rings - Truell Hyde, Lorin Matthews
Saturn's magnetic field exerts a significant perturbative force on charged micron- and submicron-sized grains in its ring system. This force has been shown to cause the formation of "spokes" in Saturn's B ring and may play a large role in the formation of the evolving clumps, kinks, braids and waves observed in Saturn's F Ring. These effects can be modeled numerically using the Box_Tree code and can be used to predict or explain new features that currently being seen by the Cassini probe in orbit around Saturn. A list of current projects available within the CASPER theory group, along with background reading material, is appended to this document.

Bears name Phil Emery General ManagerContinue reading.
Is Phil Emery the favorite to become Bears next GM?
The Bears wrapped up their fifth interview in five days with candidates to become the team's next general manager.
And they felt strong enough about the pool that they will not expand it.
So Jason Licht of the New England Patriots, Jimmy Raye of the San Diego Chargers, Marc Ross of the New York Giants, Tim Ruskell of the Bears or Phil Emery of the Kansas City Chiefs will replace Jerry Angelo as Bears' general manager.
If the hunches of two league sources is correct, Emery is the leader in the club house.
Emery is currently the Chiefs college scouting director, and he served in the same capacity under Tim Ruskell in Atlanta.
Before that, though, Emery worked as an area scout for the Bears from 1998 to 2004.
He's considered a "grinder," a college scout who is on the road constantly, searching for the next wave of NFL stars.
A native of Garden City, Michigan, he started his career at the U.S. Naval Academy, as the director of strength and conditioning services and an associate professor. He was responsible for the development, administration and supervision of all strength and conditioning activities for 4,000 Midshipmen.
He also had been a strength coach or defensive line coach at several schools, including Tennessee and Saginaw Valley State.

EPOC is a family of operating systems developed by Psion for portable devices, primarily PDAs. EPOC came from epoch, the beginning of an era, but was backfitted by the engineers to "Electronic Piece Of Cheese".
In the late 1990s the operating system was referred to as EPOC16 to distinguish it from Psion's new EPOC32 OS.
The first version of EPOC32, Release 1 appeared on the Psion Series 5 ROM v1.0 in 1997. Later, ROM v1.1 featured Release 3 (Release 2 was never publicly available.) These were followed by the Series 5mx, Revo / Revo plus, Series 7 / netBook and netPad (which all featured Release 5).
The EPOC32 operating system, at the time simply referred to as EPOC, was later renamed Symbian OS. Adding to the confusion with names, before the change to Symbian, EPOC16 was often referred to as SIBO to distinguish it from the "new" EPOC. Despite the similarity of the names, EPOC32 and EPOC16 were completely different operating systems, EPOC32 being written in C++ from a new codebase with development beginning during the mid 1990s.
EPOC32 is a pre-emptive multitasking, single user operating system with memory protection, which encourages the application developer to separate their program into an engine and an interface. The Psion line of PDAs come with a graphical user interface called EIKON which is specifically tailored for handheld machines with a keyboard (thus looking perhaps more similar to desktop GUIs than palmtop GUIs). However, one of EPOC's characteristics is the ease with which new GUIs can be developed based on a core set of GUI classes, a feature which has been widely explored from Ericsson R380 and onwards.
EPOC32 was originally developed for the ARM family of processors, including the ARM7, ARM9, StrongARM and Intel's XScale, but can be compiled towards target devices using several other processor types.
During the development of EPOC32, Psion planned to license EPOC to third-party device manufacturers, and spin off its software division as Psion Software. One of the first licensees was the short-lived Geofox, which halted production with less than 1,000 units sold. Ericsson marketed a rebranded Psion Series 5mx called the MC218, and later created the EPOC Release 5.1 based smartphone, the R380. Oregon Scientific also released a budget EPOC device, the Osaris (notable as the only EPOC device to ship with Release 4).
In June 1998, Psion Software became Symbian, a major joint venture between Psion and phone manufacturers Ericsson, Motorola, and Nokia. As of Release 6, EPOC became known simply as Symbian OS.

Inpatient rehab saved my life. I now cherish every day of it and have the tools necessary to overcome my addictions. Recovery is possible for anyone.Josh G. *San Diego, CA 2012
People seeking help frequently wonder what the difference is between inpatient Cocaine treatment and outpatient programs in Saint Bernard. They need to research the advantages of each. Usually, inpatient therapy requires, as you might guess, that you reside at the center for the length of treatment. This allows you to make a clean break from your problems. Studies have shown that inpatient facilities are generally more successful at keeping their clients free from drugs and alcohol long-term. Outpatient programs are often lower-cost and more convenient to the addicted person, though that freedom comes at the cost of a greater rate of relapse.

Gay Marriage a Long Way Off in Wisconsin
Repealing Wisconsin's constitutional amendment banning gay marriage will make legalizing those marriages in the state much more difficult than it has been for Minnesota. Partially, says Katie Belanger, with Fair Wisconsin, because the state's constitution is so hard to amend anyway. And republicans are in charge in Madison. And public sentiment isn't quite there yet
Back in 2006, 59% of voters agreed to the constitutional amendment that banned gay marriage in Wisconsin. Minnesota had no such amendment on the books and became the 12th state to legalize gay marriage this week.

Stephen Hawking: Earth is doomed if humans don't explore outer space
Stephen Hawking believes Earth is doomed if humans don't explore outer space more than they currently are. The professor and cosmologist gave a lecture at Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Regenerative Medicine Institute where he made a case for humans to push forward in space travel.
"We must continue to go into space for humanity. We won't survive another 1,000 years without escaping our fragile planet," he said through a machine that converts his facial movements into speech.
The 71-year-old toured Cedars-Sinai's stem cell laboratory, which is studying how to slow Lou Gehrig's disease's progression. Hawking was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's 50 years ago, and has lived longer than most others with the neurological disorder. That hasn't stopped him from trying to understand the meaning of the universe, though.
"To understand the universe at the deepest level, we have to understand why is there something rather than nothing," Hawking told those in attendance, via The Independent. "Why do we exist? Why this particular set of laws, and not some other? I believe the answers to all of these things is M-theory."

An Old Beauty
On my way somewhere, passing through Ameyokocho between JR Ueno and JR Okachimachi stations on the Yamanote line in North-central Tokyo I saw this elderly beauty hanging out on the street corner – a 12 year old chihuahua. Her owner assured me that she was in tip-top health, never been sick, and I was happy to spend a minute playing with her. Tokyo is not always as cold and inhospitable as people may tell you. As long as you take your time and smile, people will usually smile back. Still, it helps that I consider myself rather lucky with old ladies and dogs!

Painfully uncomfortable interview with Jake Tapper of CNN and former Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell
6 Responses to Painfully uncomfortable interview with Jake Tapper of CNN and former Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell
Marcus is a brain-washed monkey, interviewer was on point, shit don't make sense!
Jay, this interview is brainwashing, read accounts and realize he was part of the planning as were his commanders that perished. the intel wasn't sub-par as suggested, but very good, which is hard when playing whack a mole with terrorists in the dark. he along with all others knew what they were signing up for God rest their souls. They were all true patriots to the core.
Most people in this country don't realise that ANY Veteran that has ever served (wartime or not) since the last draft for Vietnam, has VOLUNTEERED to serve this country. ALL Veterans have handed our Nation a personal blank check….. payable in blood, up and including their LIFE.
My thanks and gratitude to all Veterans that have served during an actual conflict – as well as those during times of "peace".
My time was served during the Cold War…….
God Bless all those who have surrendered their life in the ultimate sacrafice in service to God and Country.
amen Christopher!!!! God bless those who sacrificed both time and their lives! Truly brave men and women.
I have so much respect for all men and women who serve, my 92 yr old Mom was a Marine, my cousin was a Green Beret, my whole family was in the Military until me and my Cousins generation. This headline was misleading to me, I never heard Tapper say they were helpless, soon as that happened and the Seal was defensive I quit watching. I don't like misleading things. If I misunderstood, then I apologize.
afghanistan was just another amerikan illegal immoral war based on lies that resulted in the death of hundreds of thousands of innocent men women and children who were never a threat to anyone. on top of that, hundreds of thousands more displaced, maimed, orphaned and sickened for decades to come.
usa military is of no service to the country, to the citizens, or to the enlisted.

Mexico continues to lead the SBDC expansion in the Americas with 108 SBDC centers throughout the country and more than a 1,200 staff trained through customized training sessions.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Bl977K7FcMw unfortunately i do not have hbo or any paid premium channels (not a big movie guy) but this is priceless video. really takes off the covering off the facade. a clear peek behind the curtains. i think this was done pretty well. some think it proves philbin's stint will be short in miami. i think bb would have gone down the same road. its about the big pic, noone thing, nothing personal, just not working out, then called security to get the playbook and what not. perhaps the meeting isnt just one on one but with 2 or 3 others in the room and the refrain "we" comes up a few times. hope chad replays this a lot and gets his head screwed on better. this is about LIFE not just football. so many americans can relate to ocho's helplessness in that moment. your entire life as you know and have planned it is essentially over. now has to call his "wife" and tell her no mo paychecks from football and from tv show.. no $!
frankly, i would like to see bb do hard knocks the year following our next SB win (2014).... y the big mystery? it helps everyone involved if done correctly.

posted at 8/15/2012 9:46 AM EDTIf Bill Belichick and the Patriots were on Hardknocks, Coach Belichick would have kicked the camera crew out of his office. When Coach Belichick would have let Johnson go, he would have made sure the scenario was one on one. Not one on one with a camera crew present. Coach Belichick would also make sure one could not view him letting a player go on YouTube. This is the one of the current differences between the two organizations.

The Sioux Falls Storm are a professional indoor football team. They are a member of the Indoor Football League. They play their home games at Sioux Falls Arena (also known as the Storm Shelter & also the home to the NBA D-League's Sioux Falls Skyforce). As a member of United Indoor Football, they won all four of that league's championship games.
Before helping to create the UIF in 2005, the Storm were members of the NIFL and the IFL (Sioux Falls Cobras). The Storm hosted the 2004 NIFL championship game against the Lexington Horsemen in the Storm Shelter in front of a sellout crowd. The Horsemen won the championship game, but the Storm beat the Horsemen in the 2nd round of the 2005 Playoffs.
The Sioux Falls Storm were charter members of the UIF and were the first ever UIF Champions with a win over the Sioux City Bandits in 2005. The Sioux Falls Storm won their second consecutive UIF championship in 2006 on their home turf, defeating the Lexington Horseman 72-64 on July 29th, 2006. It goes without saying that the 2006 Storm will go down in history as one of the greatest indoor football teams ever assembled. Quarterback Terrance Bryant named United Bowl II MVP after throwing eight touchdowns in the contest vs. Horsemen. They also employ the Sack Master Nate Fluit, who has recorded 16.5 and 15.5 sacks the last two years respectively.
They are also one of the few teams in indoor football history to post a shutout, beating the Peoria Rough Riders 71-0 on June 3, 2006.
On Saturday, August 4th, 2007, the Storm defeated the Lexigton Horsemen for the second United Bowl in a row, 62 to 59. With 19 seconds left to go in the game Storm quarter back, Terrance Bryant, threw up a prayer, and though protested by the small crowd of Horsemen fans, was ruled a touchdown pass. With 3 seconds left in the ball game, with the help of a frantic fan going for the game ball, the Horsemen gained 15 yards for a chance to kick a field goal and tie the game, but the kick was missed by Horsemen kicker, Collin Barber. The first kick also missed.
On March 29th, 2008, the Storm lost to the Omaha Beef 34-18, ending their historic 40-game winning streak and giving them their first loss since July 15, 2005. They went on to win their fourth United Bowl later that season against the Bloomington Extreme.

Officials kicked off a public awareness campaign on the Courthouse Green on Tuesday on a November voter referendum to change the county's model of government.
Indiana lawmakers passed it earlier this year, and it now goes to the voters.
County Commissioner Nelson Peters and Greater Fort Wayne Inc. Chamber of Commerce board Chairman Ron Turpin spoke in favor of the referendum, which would replace the three-member commissioners with a single elected executive. In addition, the referendum, if passed, would increase the County Council from seven members to nine, each representing a specific district.
"County government is not sexy, and most people don't pay a lot of attention to it," Peters said. "It's an uphill battle to make people aware of this effort."
Advance Allen, the name given to supporters of the campaign to raise awareness of the referendum, plans to hold many more meetings to explain the issue to county groups and communities up until the election, he said.
If the referendum passes, the new county executive and council would be elected in November 2018 and take office January 2019.
Peters said a big part of the initiative is about jobs.
"We've taken too long and haven't been able to agree on issues that would have brought in jobs," he said about the three-member board of commissioners. Peters cited several examples of near-missed opportunities.
Allen and Huntington counties' $30 million plan for an extension of Interstate 469, connecting it to U.S. 24 in Roanoke, almost did not happen because the county did not move fast enough, Peters said.
The new Great Batch Medical manufacturing facility on Kroemer Road was another near miss, he said.
"We discussed and argued on how it should be done for a long time," he said. "Even on this issue, if you ask all three of us our opinions, you would get three different answers."
But county government would see no change in economic development with the new model, said Marion Township Trustee Harold Kleine of Decatur.
Kleine, also a 40-year member of the Indiana Farm Bureau, is one of the majority of the Farm Bureau's membership who oppose the referendum, said Megan Ritter, the bureau's director of public policy.
The bureau has 70,000 farmers in the membership, Ritter said. "Our membership has voted against a single county representative of government," she said.
The move would represent a loss of control for the people, Kleine said. "There are too many questions with no answers," he added.
With the new model, Allen County voters would choose one county executive and one council member within their districts.
Currently, they choose three county commissioners and four council members – three at-large and one within their districts.
"We would lose representation, and that's too much control in one person's hand," Kleine said.
Kleine helped form and is president of an opposition group called No To One PAC which meets biweekly, he said.
"We are very strongly opposed to this model of government," he said.
The single county executive is a model used by more than 400 communities across the United States, Peters said. Those communities include Milwaukee, Green Bay and Madison, Wisconsin; Cleveland and Akron, Ohio; and Joliet, Illinois.

text: Il Dimenticato: Piedmont's New White Star Has a Mysterious and Forgotten Past Evan Dawson December 14, 2011 Evan Dawson, FCG, Food & Conversation 13 Comments A thick tome, 132 years old, has survived to tell the story of Piedmont's grape-growing past. That is, if you can decipher the flowery penmanship and wade through the anachronistic turns of phrase. There, in a section on grape varieties in the book called "Wine Production and Oenology in the Province of Cuneo, 1879," lies both the question and, perhaps, the answer to one of the region's great mysteries. What happened to Nascetta? Piedmont is Nebbiolo country, first and foremost, though of course many other varieties grow and thrive. Nascetta is a white wine grape that few modern wine lovers have ever encountered. This is not unique in Italy; vineyards in this country produce almost incalculable numbers of varieties, and most never produce a special varietal wine. But this is where Nascetta parts ways with its hundreds of viticultural cousins. Winemakers recognized the unique appeal of Nascetta early in its history. Writing in that 1879 book, Lorenzo Fantini describes Nascetta as having a "goodness uniquely owing to the nature provided by an exquisite grape, tending toward art…" Art! Fantini described Nascetta as being refined, comparable to grapes of the highest known quality. Surely, Nascetta was positioned to stand together with Nebbiolo as the strongest white and red grapes in Piedmont. In that same passage, however, Fantini offers what likely became Nascetta's obituary: "…tending toward art, which makes it absolutely defective for producers. They obtain results that are technically satisfying but economically burdensome." When producers realized that Nascetta didn't work as a bulk wine, they opted for something else. This stately white grape became Il Dimenticato, The Forgotten One, existing only on the pages of ancient Italian texts. The variety was kept alive in small quantities until finally a group of winemakers were curious enough to see what all the excitement was about so many years ago. Led by winemaker Valter Fissore of Elvio Cogno, interest in the grape began to ripple quietly across the region. Nascetta's most vocal modern champion is probably Enrico Rivetto, winemaker at Rivetto in Serralunga d'Alba. On a recent visit, I learned that Rivetto is now producing 300 cases of Nascetta annually, and is dedicating new sections of vineyard to the grape. "Rivetto is among the few producers who produce and study Nascetta," Enrico said. "We believe in the potential of this vine, forgotten for years and now rediscovered." Rivetto is encouraging his colleagues in Piedmont to plant Nascetta and produce a varietal wine from it; for now, only about half a dozen producers are doing so. "Thanks to the peculiarities of the terrain, it's destined to become the great white wine of Langa," Enrico added. It's an ambitious declaration, given Nascetta's relative youth. The 2010 Rivetto Nascetta marks the first time Italian authorities permitted wineries to label the wine as Nascetta; previously the wine carried the nebulous title of "Langhe Bianco." The legal recognition has changed the game. "We're proud of the grape and we wanted customers to see its name on the bottle, to understand and become familiar with what this wine is," said Rita Barbero, who led us on a tour of Rivetto's vineyards. In Rivetto's tasting room I had my first opportunity to experience modern Nascetta. It was one bottle, of course, just one glimpse, but I was left wanting many more. The aromatics were explosive and layered, reminiscent of Muscat in the floral character, but tilting toward Sauvignon Blanc with its fruit. In the mouth, this Nascetta wove its colorful personality around a stony core. The 13.5% alcohol by volume stitched into the wine seamlessly. High quality, but also high character; how often do you taste a wine that is utterly unique and yet not simply idiosyncratic? The proselytizing of Enrico Rivetto and the other Nascetta converts is already making an impact. Two of the finest Italian wine journalists have recognized the quality of Rivetto's Nascetta, most recently Franco Ziliani, as well as Jeremy Parzen, who delves further into the details of Nascetta's fascinating history in this post. Ironically, Rivetto produces a wine called "Il Dimenticato," but it's not their Nascetta bottling. Enrico thought it would be a clever name for a late-harvest red wine, but don't be fooled. The true story of Il Dimenticato goes back more than a hundred years, and it seems that eventually, wine lovers will laugh at the notion of Nascetta as a forgotten grape. It will make up for the lost time, and soon. Evan Dawson is the author of Summer in a Glass, a book about Finger Lakes winemakers. Evan is also the Finger Lakes Editor for the New York Cork Report.

My husband took some guests over to Cogno for a tasting and there happened to be a bottle of Nascetta open from a publicity degustazione before they got there, and after the tasting, our guests (and we) were convinced of this grapes uniqueness. We cellar it now as part of our white wine collection. Piemonte is loaded with finds like this – another superior terroir-specific white is Timorasso, from the Tortona hills. It also has had champions who have worked hard at bringing it back, similar to the Nascetta. Living here is very adventurous for the wine lover. Michael Verhaeghe Anna Maria Abonna has a very good nascetta as well and it so happens that she won some prizes of the New York Times with her dolcetti (who are fabulous, by the way …). I live in Belgium, my wife and I have a house in Piemonte where we go as often as possible. Unless I am mistaken, Anna Maria has an importer in Northern America. I can really recommend her nascetta (and dolcetto).

LOS ANGELES (June 29, 2010) - Teleflora, the world's leading flower wire service, offering only hand-arranged, hand-delivered floral arrangements, announced today its plans for the 10th anniversary of Make Someone Smile® Week, the floral industry's leading benevolent program running from Sunday, July 18 through Saturday, July 24. Thousands of Teleflora member florists and community volunteers will deliver bouquets in the company's keepsake gift Be Happy® Mug to those most in need of a smile, such as hospital patients, senior citizens living in nursing homes and assisted living homes, and recipients of Meals-on-Wheels programs. In honor of the 10th anniversary, Teleflora will also award 10 lucky member units a check for $1,000 to be given to a charity of their choice.
Teleflora will donate more than 50,000 of their Be Happy® Mugs to its member florists, who will work with local wholesalers and growers to secure donated flowers. Local Teleflora florists will use these donations to design cheerful Be Happy® Bouquets, full of roses and daisies, and deliver them to residents in their local communities.
I can't believe 10 years has passed since the first Make Someone Smile® Week. None of this would have been possible without the dedication of our member florist volunteers who work hard each year to see that residents in their communities benefit from this wonderful program," said Rich Salvaggio, Vice President of Industry Relations and Publications, Teleflora."And I think it is only fitting that on the 10th anniversary, Teleflora is awarding a $1,000 check to 10 lucky florists, to give back to a charity of their choice."
Since its launch 10 years ago, Make Someone Smile® Week has become the floral industry's most successful charitable program. In 10 years, more than 22,000 florists in the U.S. and Canada have donated their time. Teleflora's program has delivered more than 200,000 bouquets to those most in need of a smile.

On the voyage of the Beagle the young Charles Darwin took a break between graduating and starting his career as a clergyman to study the natural history of South America, an interest he had developed at the University of Edinburgh and the University of Cambridge. Influenced by Charles Lyell's Principles of Geology, he became an able geologist as well as collecting plant and animal specimens, and fossils of gigantic extinct mammals. By the return journey, he was connecting patterns of geographical and historical distribution, and starting to doubt the stability of Species. In September 1838 he conceived his theory of natural selection as the cause of evolution, then as well as developing his career as a geologist and writer worked privately on finding evidence and answering possible objections, and showed his essay written in 1844 to his friend Joseph Dalton Hooker. After turning his attention to biology and completing eight years of work on barnacles, he intensified work on his theory of species in 1854.
Alfred Russel Wallace, a naturalist working in Borneo, had a paper on the "introduction" of species published in Annals and Magazine of Natural History. This made guarded comments about evolution, and in the spring of 1856 it was noticed by Lyell who drew it to the attention of Darwin who was then working out a strategy for presenting his theory. Darwin apparently mistook Wallace's meaning, writing "nothing very new... Uses my simile of tree, [but] it seems all creation with him". However, he spelt out the details of Natural Selection to Lyell, who found the idea hard to accept but urged Darwin to publish to establish priority. On 14 May 1856 Darwin began what became his draft for a book titled Natural Selection.
Wallace collected specimens and corresponded with Darwin from Borneo. In December 1857, he wrote to ask if Darwin's book would delve into human origins, to which Darwin responded that "I think I shall avoid the whole subject, as so surrounded with prejudices, though I fully admit that it is the highest & most interesting problem for the naturalist". He encouraged Wallace's theorising, saying "without speculation there is no good & original observation", adding that "I go much further than you".
Wallace wrote his paper On The Tendency of Varieties to Depart Indefinitely from the Original Type at Ternate in February 1858 and sent it to Darwin with a request to send it on to Lyell. Darwin received it on 18 June 1858 and wrote to Lyell that "your words have come true with a vengeance,... forestalled" and "If Wallace had my MS. sketch written out in 1842, he could not have made a better short abstract!" While Wallace had not asked for publication, Darwin would, "of course, at once write and offer to send [it] to any journal" that Wallace chose. He sadly added that "all my originality, whatever it may amount to, will be smashed". Lyell's immediate response urged Darwin to publish his own ideas, and in his reply of 25 June Darwin agreed that he could point to his own Essay of 1844 which Hooker had read in 1847, and a letter to Asa Gray of 1857 showing that he was still developing the ideas, "so that I could most truly say and prove that I take nothing from Wallace. I should be extremely glad now to publish a sketch of my general views in about a dozen pages or so. But I cannot persuade myself that I can do so honourably... I would far rather burn my whole book than that he or any man should think that I had behaved in a paltry spirit", also requesting that Hooker be invited to give a second opinion. Darwin was overwrought by a deepening crisis of illness of his baby son Charles Waring Darwin, who died of scarlet fever on 28 June. On the morning of the 29th he acknowledged Hooker's letters, writing "I cannot think now", then that night he read the letters, and though "quite prostrated", got his servant to take to Hooker Wallace's essay, the letter to Asa Gray and the Essay of 1844, leaving matters in the hands of Lyell and Hooker.
Lyell and Hooker had decided on a joint publication at the Linnean Society of London of Wallace's paper together with an extract from Darwin's essay and his letter to Asa Gray, The last meeting of the society before the summer recess had been postponed following the death of former president the botanist Robert Brown on 10 June 1858, and was to be held on 1 July. On the afternoon of 30 June Mrs. Hooker copied out extracts from the handwritten documents they had just received from Darwin, then that evening Lyell and Hooker handed them in to the secretary with a covering letter.
About thirty were present, including two unnamed guests from overseas, with many there to hear an obituary notice for the former president and botanist Robert Brown given by Lyell. Wallace's natural history agent Samuel Stevens happened to be present, while Darwin's friends there included William Benjamin Carpenter and the geologist William Henry Fitton. Amongst the others, Daniel Oliver and Arthur Henfry would later support evolution, while Cuthbert Collingwood became an opponent. George Bentham was persuaded by Hooker to step down so that the Darwin and Wallace papers were first on the agenda, followed by six other papers on botanical and zoological topics. Bell had introduced discussions at the end of meetings, but there was no discussion of natural selection, perhaps because of the amount of business that had been dealt with, or possibly due to polite reluctance to speak out against a theory which the eminent Lyell and Hooker were supporting. Bentham noted that the audience appeared fatigued. Hooker later said there was "no semblance of a discussion", though "it was talked over with bated breath" at tea afterwards, and in his reminiscences many years later thought "the subject [was] too ominous for the old school to enter the lists before armouring. Although Bell apparently disapproved, the Vice-President promptly removed all references to immutability from his own paper which was awaiting publication.
Darwin wrote to Wallace to explain what had occurred, enclosing a letter which Hooker wrote at Darwin's request. His next action was to get his family away from the danger of infection, both himself and Emma exhausted by sickening fear about the safety of their children. The day after the funeral they moved to his sister-in-law's in Sussex, then on to Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight. At first they stayed in the King's Hotel, Shanklin, and on 30 July Darwin began writing an "abstract" of his book on Natural Selection, planning a short paper in response to Hooker's urging to publish a scientific paper in the Linnean journal. They next rented a villa in Sandown and Darwin pressed on, with the facts he felt necessary to support his "abstract" expanding far beyond the thirty pages Hooker had originally suggested.
The paper consisted of a communication letter by Joseph Dalton Hooker and Charles Lyell dated 30 June 1859, giving information on the three sections of the papers. The introduction is shown below, along with the section headings:
MY DEAR SIR,—The accompanying papers, which we have the honour of communicating to the Linnean Society, and which all related to the same subject, viz. the Laws which affect the Production of Varieties, Races, and Species, contain the results of the investigations of two indefatigable naturalists, Mr. Charles Darwin and Mr. Alfred Wallace.
The gentlemen having, independently and unknown to one another, conceived the same very ingenious theory to account for the appearance and perpetuation of varieties and of specific forms on our planet, and both fairly claim the merit of being original thinkers in this important line of inquiry; but neither of them having published his views, though Mr. Darwin has for many years past been repeatedly urged by us to do so, and both authors having now unreservedly placed their papers in our hands, we think it would best promote the interests of science that a selection from them should be laid before the Linnean Society. Taken in the order of their dates, they consist of:—
The communication letter briefly describes the first two, and regarding Wallace's paper states that he sent to Darwin "with the expressed wish that it should be forwarded to Sir Charles Lyell, if Mr. Darwin thought it sufficiently novel and interesting. So highly did Mr. Darwin appreciate the value of the views therein set forth, that he proposed, in a letter to Sir Charles Lyell, to obtain Mr. Wallace's consent to allow the Essay to be published as soon as possible. Of this step we highly approved, provided Mr. Darwin did not withhold from the public, as he was strongly inclined to do (in favour of Mr. Wallace), the memoir which he had himself written on the same subject, and which, as before stated, one of us had perused in 1844, and the contents of which we had both of us been privy to for many years. On representing this to Mr. Darwin, he gave us permission to make what use we thought proper of his memoir, &c.; and in adopting our present course, of presenting it to the Linnean Society, we have explained to him that we are not solely considering the relative claims to priority of himself and his friend, but the interests of science generally".
Despite illness, Darwin pressed on with writing the "abstract" of his "big book" on Natural Selection; this condensed version was published in November 1859 as On the Origin of Species.

I really like this laptop, it is powerful, and versatile. If you travel a lot then the EliteBook 2760p would be great because of its compact size. If you need a tablet, but you also need something more powerful than an iPad or Android tablet, the 2760p would also be a great fit. All in all the EliteBook 2760p will fill many shoes and work well in any situation. However, as tablets become more powerful, computers like this will become increasingly obsolete.

The 2760P is a very well executed convertible netbook and was built with an eye for detail. The construction is very solid and the screen is both responsive and offers good viewing angles. The Sandy Bridge platform provides optimal performance with virtually any productivity app, while the battery assures almost all day autonomy. Still, we were a little disappointed by the lack of a USB 3.0 port and about the little build flaw that doesn't allow you to hermetically lock the screen over the keyboard when in tablet mode. These are not major problems and are easy to work with, so in the end the 2760P is an admirable Enterprise machine.

The Universe in a Single Atom: The Convergence of Science and Spirituality, by H.H. Tenzin Gyasto, the 14th Dalai Lama
Broadway Books, 978767920810, 216 pp., 2005
Many books that touch on science and spirituality follow the pattern of using one to try to (dis)prove the other. In this book, while His Holiness seeks the middle path of Science and Spirituality, he doesn't try to marry the results, but the process. Rather than trying to show how science is directly supporting or opposing Buddhist thought, he spends the time focused on the process of science and the importance it holds to Buddhism, as well as how Buddhism must change with the understanding of our world.
"My confidence in venturing into science lies in my basic belief that as in science so in Buddhism, understanding the nature of reality is pursued by means of critical investigation: if scientific analysis were conclusively to demonstrate certain claims in Buddhism to be false, then we must accept the finds of science and abandon those claims."
His Holiness so believes Continue reading
