WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - For almost forty days we have been writing a series of articles entitled "Catholic Countdown to Election 2012". For some reason, our counting seemed to get lost along the way and we were about to fall one day short. So, we thought on the Lord's Day, the last Sunday before the election, we would address themes which are, in a sense, outside of time.
From antiquity Christians have pointed to this day as the "eighth day", the day on which the new Creation began in the Resurrection. The Catechism reminds us, "Jesus rose from the dead "on the first day of the week." Because it is the "first day," the day of Christ's Resurrection recalls the first creation. Because it is the "eighth day" following the sabbath, it symbolizes the new creation ushered in by Christ's Resurrection. For Christians it has become the first of all days, the first of all feasts, the Lord's Day (he kuriake hemera, dies dominica) Sunday." (CCC# 2174)
There is much more to life than politics. However, participation in politics is a part of faithful citizenship and fulfilling our obligation of building a truly just and civil nation worthy of the human person. It is also a key to authentic progress. Today, we focus on a broader perspective. We want to consider whether the current political, cultural and policy agenda calling itself "progressive" is progressive at all.
The term implies progress toward something better. In fact, much of the agenda being offered under the moniker of "progressive" is regressive. The dictionary defines "progressive" as an adjective, meaning "Moving forward; advancing." We have lived through the word games many times in the last few decades.
The misuse of the word "progressive" is one more example of what the late great C.S. Lewis, in his "Studies in Words" called "verbicide." Lewis warned about allegedly "progressive" governing schemes wherein a collectivist ideology built upon moral relativism is unleashed in his book entitled "The Abolition of Man." In it we find these insightful words, "A dogmatic belief in objective value is necessary to the very idea of a rule which is not tyranny or an obedience which is not slavery."
One of his Essays found in "God in the Dock: Essays on Theology and Ethics" and entitled "Is Progress Possible? Willing Slaves of the Welfare State" warned, "Let us not be deceived by phrases about 'Man taking charge of his own destiny.' All that can really happen is that some men will take charge of the destiny of others. The more completely we are planned the more powerful they will be."
There is a concerted effort to paint those who adhere to the classical Jewish and Christian vision of the human person, the family and a truly just civil society as "backward." We are deluged with direct and indirect efforts to portray us as committed to a kind of return to some perceived "dark age". In fact, what we offer is the path to true progress. True progress passes through authentic human freedom.
We are further accused by some of forcing "our view" on others. While those who engage in this kind of word game, using the word "progressive" to promote a regressive political, social and cultural revolution, are actually the ones who are intolerant of any view other than their own. Let's consider three of many policy agenda items of the political "progressives" of our age and consider our alternative claim.
1) Abortion on Demand
Abortion on demand is the current state of the law in the United States since the infamous decisions of Roe and Doe. Our youngest neighbors in the first home of the whole human race can be killed by surgical instruments, chemical weapons or suction, at any time, for any reason. While restrictions on the practice are being slowly enacted in the States, the current state of the federal law has not changed.
However, our medical science has advanced. We now routinely reach into the womb and offer surgery to these same children in order to help them live fuller lives after birth. Our criminal codes have advanced. We now prosecute a criminal offender who, in the course of committing another felony, takes their lives as well as their mothers. We take 4D images of them and send them to our friends. Sadly, the same technology guides the abortionist in his or her execution of those who are "unwanted".
We all know the truth, that child in the womb is our neighbor. We also recognize the Natural Law written in every human heart which gives us the basis for our criminal codes. The real "Right" is the Right to Life. Without life there can be no other "rights" or liberty. The Right to life is the foundation of the prohibition against killing our innocent neighbor. All human persons have a right to life.
Those currently stealing the label "progressive" made up a so called "right" to reach into the womb for any reason and kill the innocent child. They now use the police power of the State to secure this fictional "right." Is reaching into the first sanctuary of the human race and killing the first immigrants, the first refugees, properly called "progressive"?
Defending the intentional killing of children in the womb at any time and for any reason is grounded in a counterfeit notion of "freedom" as a raw power over those who are vulnerable and not wanted. Those who defend this practice are not "progressives", in any proper sense of the word, they are barbarians.
2) Marriage, Family and Society
Some within the movement currently called "progressive" are committed to a future where homosexual sexual practices are considered morally equivalent to the sexual expression of marital love between a man and a woman and the positive law enforces the equivalency. Is that really "progressive"?
The positive law of the Nation, under their agenda, will force us to call to be a marriage what can never be a marriage - or face the punitive police power of the State. They want homosexual relationships, incapable of achieving the ends of marriage, to be given the same legal status as a marriage. The new Orwellian "newspeak" surrounding this campaign calls it supporting the "freedom to marry", when it is in reality, opposing marriage.
Marriage is not simply a "religious" construct. The Natural Law reveals - and the cross cultural history of civilization affirms - that marriage is between a man and a woman, open to children and intended for life. Marriage is the foundation for the family which is the privileged place for the formation of virtue and character in children, our future citizens. The family is the first society, first economy, first school, first civilizing and mediating institution and first government. Defending true and authentic marriage between a man and a woman is defending the common good of society.
Added to all of this, there is a game plan: make defending marriage sound "religious" and then argue that such "religious" positions have no place in public policy. However, marriage as between one man and one woman is not only a "religious" position. It is an objective and ontological truth which cannot be changed by changing the definition of a word and then using the police power of the State to force us all to bend the knee to the new definition. To confine marriage to heterosexual couples is not discriminatory. Homosexual couples cannot bring into existence what marriage intends by its very definition.
3) Religious Freedom
We close by reminding our readers of the policy concern which strikes at the very heart of the mission of our Church and our participation in it, no matter our state in life or vocation, religious freedom. In May of 2011, the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences gathered in Rome for its 17th annual plenary session. Its theme was "Universal Rights in a World of Diversity - The Case of Religious Freedom". The gathering reflected the deep concerns the Holy See has repeatedly expressed over growing threats to the fundamental human right to Religious Freedom.
Pope Benedict XVI told the Pontifical Academy, "Since man enjoys the capacity for a free personal choice in truth, and since God expects of man a free response to his call, the right to religious freedom should be viewed as innate to the fundamental dignity of every human person, in keeping with the innate openness of the human heart to God. In fact, authentic freedom of religion will permit the human person to attain fulfillment and will thus contribute to the common good of society."
"Aware of the developments in culture and society, the Second Vatican Council proposed a renewed anthropological foundation to religious freedom. The Council Fathers stated that all people are "impelled by nature and also bound by our moral obligation to seek the truth, especially religious truth"
Only months into his pontificate, in December of 2005, the Pope told the Roman Curia: "The Second Vatican Council, recognizing and making its own an essential principle of the modern State with the Decree on Religious Freedom, has recovered the deepest patrimony of the Church. By so doing she can be conscious of being in full harmony with the teaching of Jesus himself (cf. Mt 22: 21), as well as with the Church of the martyrs of all time."
"The ancient Church naturally prayed for the emperors and political leaders out of duty (cf. I Tm 2: 2); but while she prayed for the emperors, she refused to worship them and thereby clearly rejected the religion of the State. The martyrs of the early Church died for their faith in that God who was revealed in Jesus Christ, and for this very reason they also died for freedom of conscience and the freedom to profess one's own faith - a profession that no State can impose but which, instead, can only be claimed with God's grace in freedom of conscience."
"A missionary Church known for proclaiming her message to all peoples must necessarily work for the freedom of the faith. She desires to transmit the gift of the truth that exists for one and all. At the same time, she assures peoples and their Governments that she does not wish to destroy their identity and culture by doing so, but to give them, on the contrary, a response which, in their innermost depths, they are waiting for - a response with which the multiplicity of cultures is not lost but instead unity between men and women increases and thus also peace between peoples."
On Thursday, January 19, 2012, he addressed the Bishops of Region IV in the United States (Baltimore, Washington and the archdiocese for the Military Services) gathered for their ad limina visit. He warned of a "radical secularism which finds increasing expression in the political and cultural spheres". He warned the Bishops that the "seriousness of these threats needs to be clearly appreciated at every level of ecclesial life. Of particular concern are certain attempts being made to limit that most cherished of American freedoms, the freedom of religion."
On January 20, 2012, Kathleen Sebelius, the Secretary of Health and Human Services under the Obama Administration, issued a mandate requiring all employers, including Catholic and other religious employers, to cover sterilization, abortion inducing drugs, and contraception in their health care plans. The alleged exemption provided for religious employers did not cover hospitals, universities, soup kitchens, outreaches to the poor and many other vital expressions of our Catholic faith and mission outside of our church buildings. The purported accommodation which followed was a fraud, a shell game, which accomplished nothing.
Perhaps it could have been considered an act of charity that the President gave the Catholic bishops a year to consider whether or not they would conform to the demands of the unjust mandate. But an act of charity must always be ordered to the good, and the willingness to give the bishops more time to consider whether or not to provide insurance coverage for contraceptives, abortifacients, and sterilization does not fit that criterion. It displayed, in our opinion, arrogance of power.
Catholics believe that the Gospel of Jesus Christ demands a response which goes beyond the walls of our Church buildings. We are our brother and sister's keeper. We do not reach out to people in need because they are Catholic. We reach out to people in need because we are Catholic. For an institution to receive an exemption from the Obama administration it must serve only members of its own denomination.
As many of our good bishops and leaders pointed out, even the ministry of Jesus would not qualify for an exemption. Well, the ministry of Jesus continues through his Body, the Church, of which we are members. We cannot - we will not - comply with this mandate. This HHS Mandate not only injures the Church and religious institutions it injures American society. It harms the common good.
This HHS Edict is not only a roadblock on the way to true progress, it is a violation of the Free Exercise of Religion which is protected under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. The Birth Certificate of our Nation, the Declaration of Independence, affirmed the existence of inalienable rights and self evident truths. Those Rights of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of happiness are endowed by our Creator and not conferred by a Government. They cannot - they must not- be taken away by Government. Religious Liberty is at the heart of the very understanding of Right to Liberty in the Western tradition.
The Competing Visions of Progress
We know there are many, many other issues and concerns which need to be addressed, applying the principles offered by Catholic Social Doctrine to the arena of public policy. We hope to continue to do that in the future. However, there is a hierarchy of application and urgency in the three areas we addressed above.
The positions being espoused and lifestyles being affirmed as "progressive" by those currently using the term as a political label are anything but. They turn the clock back on true human progress.They show us that we are dealing with competing definitions of human freedom, human flourishing and human progress. What is also threatened in this particular election is the vital role of religious faith and institutions and the values and services they offer society.
It is the promotion of faithful, monogamous marriage, family, authentic human freedom, the dignity of every human person - and the insistence that there are objective truths that can be known and unalienable rights that are endowed on all men and women - which have guided true progress in human history. Such a vision has helped to overcome the slaveries that have arisen from flawed ideologies that have treated people as property to be used and manipulated.
Such a vision of progress has inspired leaders to speak truth to power, condemning the lies that elevate power and function over the primacy of the person, thereby suppressing the deeper and higher values that civilize and set people and Nations free. This is the vision of progress which should inform our Vote on November 6th.

Home > Press > European project breaks efficiency record by converting sunlight in electricity
Scientists of the Commission-financed project FULLSPECTRUM have developed photovoltaic (PV) multi-junction (MJ) solar cells which are able to convert 39,7 % of the energy of sun light into electricity. This is the highest percentage ever reached in Europe, according to researchers after their final workshop today in El Escorial, Spain.
The main barrier to large-scale deployment of PV systems is the high production cost of electricity, due to the significant capital investment costs. Research is engaged to reduce manufacturing costs and to raise the efficiency of the cells. Today conventional PV cells made of silicon are converting only a fraction of the solar light spectrum around 17%.
FULLSPECTRUM's multi-junction solar cells are able to catch more sun light energy due to their composition of different materials, including gallium, phosphorus, indium and germanium. These multi-junction solar cells are expensive and have only been used for applications in space. However, the cost can be considerably reduced by arranging them in special panels witch include lenses that focus a large amount of solar energy onto the cells. These concentrators can reach far above 1000 times the natural solar power flux and have also been the object of the project research.
FULLSPECTRUM is an integrated project involving 19 European public and industrial research centres from seven EU Member States, as well as Russia and Switzerland. It is coordinated by the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Instituto de Energía Solar and started in November 2003 with an overall budget of € 14,7 Million of with the European Commission financed € 8.4 Million.
The European Commission has spent more than € 105 Million in research on photovoltaic energy since the start of Framework Programme 6 in 2002. Many of the projects are trying to get production costs of silicon solar cells down.
Energy research is constituent of the European Union Energy and Climate Package. One of its ambitious targets for 2020 is to increase by up to 20% the level of renewable energy in the EU's overall final energy consumption. To reach this goal the European Commission started the Strategic Energy Technology (SET)-Plan.
The Solar Europe Industrial Initiative as part of the SET-Plan has recently elevated its target for the participation of photovoltaics in the European electricity demand by 2020 from 3% to 12%. This can be translated into installing from 350 up to 400 GW P (Gigawatt of peak capacity) in photovoltaics, corresponding to an average growth of ~40% per year from today's situation.
Back in 2006, the total installed capacity of PV systems in the EU was 3,4 GW P , representing approximately 0,5% of the total EU electrical capacity. The electricity generated by PV was approximately 2,5 TWh (Terawatthour), or 0,1% of the demand. The annual installations of PV systems in 2006 in the EU reached 1250 Megawatt.

Why FOREX? Why Not? Tips That Will Make It Work For You!
Posted by Eugene Wallace | Filed under Articles
The foreign exchange market is a great platform for those who wish to develop their trading skills. The forex market allows new traders to enter and assist in the conversion of international currency. Forex trading requires discipline, hard work, determination and knowledge. The information in the following article will give you the necessary knowledge to trade in this market.
Limit yourself to just a few markets in the beginning. Choosing a few markets to work with will allow you to focus and learn. Knowledge is one of the keys to a successful run in the Forex market. So, limiting yourself will allow you to become an expert in your chosen currencies.
Start your forex career with small amounts of money and low leverage. This will let you get your feet wet without losing your house. As you start to make a profit, reinvest a portion of it into your trading account. Try to not add more of your own money in past your initial starting investments.
If you plan on participating in forex trading, you must understand what is going on with the market. Therefore, you should have a solid understanding of rising commodity prices and falling commodity prices. Rising commodity prices typically signal a strong economy and rising inflation. Falling commodity prices typically signal a weak economy and falling inflation.
When trading on forex try to coordinate your trading times with times in which different markets overlap. These times will be when a majority of trading will happen on those markets. Even if you cannot do this, at least make sure that your chosen market is open and do not trade during their closed times.
Keep your cool as you are trading. Do not get over excited when you win a lot or lose a lot. It will keep you from thinking clearly and there is a good chance that you will lose everything that you won or that you have. Do not over trade and shake your money management.
Save yourself money and grief before entering the money market by trying a risk free practice account for a while. The Forex market should be treated with caution and respect just as any other significant life experience. Be patient and use common sense; practice and train yourself first.
Do not try to put your money against the market's money. Put your money with the market's money instead. Predicting the future will not benefit you in many cases. You should stick with the momentum that favors the trend trader. When currency hits its major support level it will become too oversold and drop further.
As stated before, the forex market is a great platform to develop trading skills. Newcomers can easily enter the market and trade international currency. Success in the market is determined by the amount of hark work one does, as well as the amount of determination, discipline and knowledge they have. By using the information from the article above, you can have the proper tools to enter the forex market.
Tips For Understanding Forex Trading In Today's World
Posted by Eugene Wallace | Filed under Articles
Currency trading has so many possibilities as to what you can use, do, and how you can apply it to your own personal strategy. It is rare to find somebody that will trade just like you, so why not take advantage of that and create a powerful trading strategy that works for only you? This article can help.
When trading forex it is important to start out small and only use your earnings gained through trading to add more to your investment. If you throw too much money at it from the get-go, you run the risk of losing all your money in a bad investment. It is not wise to risk more money on an account that you are not certain of.
Take opinions from others in the markets with a grain of salt. If you allow others to control your decisions with speculations and guesswork, you lose control. The ultimate goal is to build your positioning from solid decision making which can only come from you and your confidence in the knowledge you have obtained through homework and experience.
When participating in forex trading, an acronym you should always keep in mind is KISS. This acronym means "Keep It So Simple." Most of the time, simple trades are best. Do not make trades that are too complicated because you are likely to over-think them, which will lead to bad decisions.
A successful trader and an unsuccessful trader have a glaring difference. While the unsuccessful trader is ruined by a downswing, a successful one has the ability to weather the storm. When investing, never risk more than two or three percent of the total account. Several loses in a row is a quick road to ruin otherwise.
Some things within forex may seem as if they're rather complicated, but once you cut through the complex lingo, you will find that it's very easy to understand. For instance, some people do not understand buy and sell signals. Just remember that a failed sell signal is a buy signal, and a failed buy signal is a sell signal.
When you are engaging in a risky environment, the one thing that you need to do is anticipate the chance of failure. This will put you in a position where you will understand the potential of losing money, which will not hurt as much if your investments failed.
Abandon a Forex prediction when market movement renders it inaccurate. Predicting the way the Forex markets will move is hard work. If you put effort into making your own predictions you are likely to get attached to them. You always need to be willing to murder your darlings, though. A prediction that does not reflect movement accurately is worse than useless.
Isn't creating your own personal currency trading strategy interesting? As you have seen in this article, there are a lot of ways this can be done and no two strategies or trades will yield the same results. There are also lots of options that can work with your personal strategy.
Helpful Tips For The Forex Trading Entrepreneur
Posted by Eugene Wallace | Filed under Articles
Whether you call it Forex, FX or the currency market, the Foreign Exchange is where over two-trillion (USD) is traded on a daily basis, making it exponentially larger than the New York and London Stock Exchange combined. Before you leap in with big hopes of cashing out, though, take a minute to read these Forex-related trading tips.
The best Forex traders are the traders who check their emotions at the door, so remember that allowing your emotions to get involved could mean that you lose your investment. When you become attached to any type of trade or allow your emotions to weigh on your decisions, you will almost always fail to act logically. This is bad for business.
Beginners in Forex would do well to focus on only one currency pair until they understand how multiple pairs work. World currencies are very complicated and constantly changing in value. Forex is difficult enough to understand as it is, without having to keep track of multiple currency pairs. Pick one and study it. Try your particular nation's currency to start.
The first thing you must do if you want to participate in forex trading is to learn the basics. You didn't learn to ride a bike on the first try. The same applies to forex trading. You do not have to have a degree, but you must be educated on the subject in order to have success.
Never become optimistic without a reason. If your trade is not doing as well as you had hoped, get out of the market when you do not feel it is right. False optimism can lose you a lot of money in the long run, as you should always have a reason for staying in.
Start your forex career with small amounts of money and low leverage. This will let you get your feet wet without losing your house. As you start to make a profit, reinvest a portion of it into your trading account. Try to not add more of your own money in past your initial starting investments.
Avoid anything reminiscent of gambling. Gambling belongs in casinos, not in trading. Just like with overdoing it with gambling, you can lose everything with trading too by being careless and seeing it as a game. In a game, someone has to win and someone has to lose, don't be the loser because real money is at stake. Plan your strategies seriously to avoid losing a bundle.
When trading on the forex market the canny trader will never make a trade where the potential reward is less than twice the possible loss. No one is 100% successful in forex trading. Sticking to a two-to-one reward to risk ratio will protect a trader from the inevitable deal that goes wrong.
The reason that you cannot rush into anything uninformed, much less the Forex market, is that you will always be in a position to fail. People in a position to fail often do fail. It's like a universal law. But by learning and applying the tips above, you'll put yourself in a position to succeed. And, as you may have guessed, people in this position often succeed.

'Live Free or Die Hard' Producer Joins 'Iron Sky' Filmmakers on 'Jeremiah Harm'
'Iron Sky' helmer Timo Vuorensola will direct the sci-fi feature based on the graphic novel of the same name.
COLOGNE, Germany – Tero Kaukomaa and Timo Vuorensola, the Finnish filmmakers behind the crowdsourced 'Nazis from Space' film Iron Sky have teamed with producers Arnold Rifkin (Live Free or Die Hard) and Ross Richie (2 Guns) to adapt the graphic novel Jeremiah Harm for the big screen.
VIDEO: 'A Good Day to Die Hard' Trailer: Bruce Willis is Back as John McClane, Again
The sci-fi drama, which Vuorensola will direct and Kaukomaa, Richie and Rifkin will produce, focuses on a intergalactic bounty hunter sent to Earth to hunt down a group of space-traveling criminals and the girl they kidnapped. The graphic novel was written by Keith Giffen and Alan Grant for Boom! Studios. Richie is the founder and CEO of Boom! Studios.
Taking a page from Iron Sky's playbook, the filmmakers plan to use online crowdsourcing to help finance and produce Jeremiah Harm. Iron Sky raised around $1 million of its $10 million budget from fans and investors online and tapped its Internet fan base to help develop and promote the movie. For the new movie, the producers have launched a new site: www.jeremiahharm.com where fans can create their own aliens for the film.
Iron Sky earned a slim $122,000 on U.S. theatrical release but has grossed upwards of $8 million worldwide.

Clothes For Layering, San Francisco
42 Reviews
42 Reviews
Luggage and bags:
Bring a daypack and put a sweater into it. This is also a GREEN place to put souvenirs bought, as San Francisco has now passed ordinances against the use of plastic bags in shopping. Also, as a convenience, have plenty of quarters to put into the MUNI transport ticket machines. The machines also accept bills, but won't provide any change, so you want to put in the exact fare when buying a ticket.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Although the urban transport is very good, visiting San Francisco will mean a lot of walking, so bring good comfortable walking shoes that can pound the pavement all day long without giving you heal spurs or toe cramps. Even in the middle of summer, the marine layer can blow in and make this city surprisingly cool, particularly in the morning and evening hours, so always bring along a sweater to layer over the shirt you may be wearing. Winter weather is surprisingly forgiving though, as it very rarely freezes in San Francisco. Visitors from the Eastern USA and Northern Europe will find winter in San Francisco quite pleasurable overall. At the same time, the wind chill factor from the ocean and bay breezes can make the weather seem particularly cold, so bring a warm jacket in winter.
Photo Equipment: A good wide angle lense is nice for capturing architecture. In museums, flash is prohibited, but photography is OK, so have a camera that takes decent images even in low light conditions. Bring plenty of memory for your digital camera.
Miscellaneous: Generally, fog comes mostly in the late spring and early summer, while winter is more likely to be clear. The water that surrounds the San Francisco peninsula moderates the climate in dramatic fashion, making weather reports from the surrounding Bay Area and Northern California poor predictors of weather in San Francisco itself. In summer, San Francisco will be as much as 30 degrees cooler than Sacramento, while in winter, it will be 30 degrees warmer.
Luggage and bags:
Whatever you'd generally use.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Bring layers of clothes, and don't forget windbreakers and/or pullovers. Especially if you're visiting in the Summer. This is not Southern California, and San Francisco can be downright chilly in the Summertime. Spring and Autumn are the best time of year for warm weather.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: San Francisco is a place of fairly mild weather all year long during the daylight hours. However, by night the weather can change very rapidly, the fog rolls in from the bay, and the city can experience some pretty chilly nights. Pack warm comfortable shoes, dress in layers, carry a sweater or two and maybe a well lined jacket. Come to San Francisco but dress for WARMTH!
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear:
Layering is a must. When we were walking in the city, at one point we'd be sweating standing in the sun, but waiting for the trolley in the shade, we were freezing! Comfortable shoes required & be prepared for rain/fog.
Photo Equipment: 400 speed film as it is cloudy a lot.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: We were in San Francisco in the fall, which is probably the best time to go. I found the weather varied from 80 degrees to 58, depending on the location, time of day, rain or fog. So bring stuff that can be layered. Oh, and an umbrella! If it's cold and foggy in the city, as soon as you cross the bridge to Marin County, it can be immediately hot and sunny.
Luggage and bags:
Don't make the mistake we did and think that because you are travelling to California in August you wont need any warmish clothes. In fact in San Francisco down by the sea the wind whipped up and it was really cold. I had a cardigan (thankfully) but it really still was'nt enough.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Take good comfy shoes for walking and pack a fold up brolly in case it rains, or if not and the sun is too hot, you can use it as a parasol.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Unless you need certain prescribed medicines you will be able to find whatever you are requiring when you get here.
Photo Equipment: Films for camera/batteries are widely available at much the same price.
Miscellaneous: If it is hot, take (or buy one here) one of those little mini fans to cool you down.
Luggage and bags:
Your usual roller board and duffel bags.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Casual wear and good walking shoes and socks. Sweaters, gloves/mittens, scarfs and an umbrella during the Oct-April months.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Your medications and vitamins. Should you forget them, local pharmacies are easy to accommodate your prescription orders and can get them to you on the same day.
Photo Equipment: Photo cameras of all type for taking pictures. Major brand stores operate in the city, Best buy and Circuit City. Check with Walgreen's for your photos "on the go" type cameras, disposable, digital and panoramic view. They also process your 35mm film usually within one day for a higher fee or several days if you're not in a time constraint.
Miscellaneous: Most of what you need can be bought in and around the city should you forget something.
Luggage and bags:
Depending on where you are staying, there are many hills in San Francisco. Thus, for luggage, make sure you can adequately transport it without being tired from walking all over the hills to get to your hotel. Or, one can just take a cab or public transportation.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Too many tourists come to San Francisco wearing and packing only T shirts and shorts. That is a big mistake, as San Francisco weather is on average, much colder than most cities in the summer. Whichever season you come to SF, make sure you bring a jacket and clothes for layering (T shirt, long sleeve over, a sweater when it's winter time, and a jacket). Also check the forecast for rain. The fall tends to be the best season weather-wise for San Francisco (especially mid-to-late October when we have an Indian Summer). As for shoes, wear comfortable shoes, as there are many, many hills.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Unfortunately, almost all of the San Francisco beaches are too cold to sunbathe or swim in. Thus, only bring swim suits/trunks if you have access to a pool... This is true in the summer as well.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear:
Just remember that SF always gets cool during the evening hours. Even if it is warm and mild during the day make sure you always carry a light sweater or jacket with you if you are going to spend the entire day on the go.
You're going to do alot of walking so bring your comfy shoes.
Photo Equipment: Always bring your camera. There are photo opps everywhere.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Probably everyone has told you so already, but remember to bring some clothes for layering (undershirts, sweaters, light jackets) regardless of the time of the year. In summer, the fog usually rolls in at dusk and it gets very cold, VERY fast. Even if you are down in San Jose and decide to drive up for the evening, remember that there can be up to 30 degrees difference between the two cities (I took to leaving a jacket in my car trunk full time when I lived in San Jose, just in case I decided to drive up to the city on a whim). Winter is a bit more even, but it's cold throughout, 40s and such, so you may want to bring some sweaters and of course rain gear (from Dec to Feb we get all our rain here)
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Take warm clothes, even in the summer. You'll definitely need a jacket at night, and even during most summer days. The average high temperature in July in San Francisco is 18 Celsius (65 Fahrenheit), and there is often a stiff breeze.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: In San Francisco, you should pack a sweater and a light windbreaker jacket. The climate is very mild, never getting very hot or cold. But the weather is constantly changing, and can vary even from one neighborhood to another. So always be prepared for rain or shine.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: One year, when I visited in early fall, I was ill prepared for the 98 degree heat wave. When I first visited in July, 1990, I was ill prepared for how cold summer in San Francisco could be. Lesson learned: bring a little bit of everything -- t-shirts, sweaters, sweatshirts, light jacket, etc. It's also a good idea to layer, as the temperature can change drastically from morning when the fog has yet to lift, to midday, usually the warmest part of the day, to late afternoon and evening, when the fog in many areas of the city rolls back in.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Make sure you pack a fleece or a cardigan as it often starts out bright and sunny but gets chiller in the afternoons/evening. Also if you are planning on going on the cable cars they can be a bit chilly!
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: San Francisco is generally NOT hot in the summer. There is often fog, which can burn off in the middle of the day. Bring a sweater or light jacket that you can remove as the day goes on. Locals don't wear shorts in the City too often (unless they are exercising).

See how to make a classic drink from the old soda fountain days!
This tart, sweet relish needs no cooking, and the liqueur packs a subtle punch.
Your rating
I replaced one ingredient with 1 pt of heavy whipping cream and added 1 tbps of honey.
This drink is "nectar of the gods."
Truly excellent.
Yum. Wasn't sure about the eggs but went for it & it is delish! Thanks!
A lot like the original!


text: Sure, it's a chain/franchise, but don't be put off by that. The pizza is simply top notch, as good as I've had anywhere in the world: beautiful, slightly chewy base, light crisp crust, fresh as could be. The service was also very good indeed, and the setting was great (good location too).

Thank you for your Chaos Mistral Multi-Tasker Pro Balaclava initial
report. It is well written, and the html looks really crisp and nicely
laid out. I could used this product yesterday, as we had a foot of snow,
strong winds, and cold temps! Work was even closed, which rarely happens!
I have several edits for you, but nothing very serious. Please see to the
edits and then upload your report to the official folder. You do not need
to repost to the list, but please remember to delete the copy in the test
Thanks again for your work!

Initial Review: January 31, 2011
[EDIT] This is technically accurate, but to differentiate between owner
reviews and test reports it would be better to say "Initial Report".
Field Report: April, 2011
Long Term Report: June, 2011
[Comment] You may want to say something like: "Field Report: Check back
in April, 2011"
My pack weight is approximately 30 (13.61 kg) to 50 lbs (22.68 kg).
[EDIT] Add "lbs" after 30.
[Edit] Since these are approximate weights you can probably round the
conversions to 13.6 and 22.7 kg.
Product Information:
Manufacturer: Chaos
[EDIT] Before this section please put "INITIAL REPORT" and the date. You
can also put a link to the heading from your table of contents at the top,
but it is not mandatory.
Weight: 2.5 oz (71 g)
[EDIT] I believe this is "Measured Weight". If so please state so.

[EDIT] Spelling. Should be construction.
Choas, the manufacturer, prides its self in being "The Next Generation in

[EDIT] "its self" should be "itself"
The Multi derives it's name from the fact that it's designed to be worn in
several variations,
[EDIT] The first "it's" should be "its". (The second one is correct.)
If utilized to the fullest capacity, the multi acts as a full head
[EDIT] Be consistent with capitalizing "The Multi" as you did earlier.
How well it wick moisture.
[EDIT] "wick" should be "wicks"
It's versatility and light weight design makes it an attractive item.

Taking his inspiration from biographical facts, novelist Colum McCann tells the erotically charged story of the Russian dancer Rudolf Nureyev through the cast of those who knew him: there is Anna Vasileva, Rudi's first ballet teacher, who rescues her protégé from the stunted life of his provincial town; Yulia, whose sexual and artistic ambitions are thwarted by her Soviet-sanctioned marriage; and Victor, the Venezuelan street hustler, who reveals the lurid underside of the gay celebrity set. Spanning four decades and many worlds, from the horrors of the Second World War to the wild abandon of New York in the eighties, Dancer is peopled by a large cast of characters, obscure and famous: doormen and shoemakers, nurses and translators, Margot Fonteyn, Eric Bruhn and John Lennon. And at the heart of the spectacle stands the artist himself, willful, lustful, and driven by a never-to-be-met need for perfection.
Colum McCann is the author of books including This Side of Brightness, Zoli, Songdogs and Let the Great World Spin. He has received the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award, a Pushcart Prize, and was named the first winner of the Grace Kelly Memorial Foundation Award and the Princess Grace Memorial Literary Award. He lives in New York City.
