Richard Gage, AIA Founder, Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth
Come and hear Richard Gage, AIA, give his outstanding multimedia presentation on the collapse of the World Trade Center towers. You'll see an abundance of
photographs and video evidence showing that the way in which the towers collapsed is inconsistent with a plane-impact-and-fire scenario and that the collapses in fact exhibited all the characteristics of destruction by explosives. You'll learn about molten metal in the rubble pile, molten metal flowing from the windows before collapse, the unmistakable chemical signature of a demolition incendiary "thermite" left behind in the debris, and more. Bring your skeptical friends who want solid, documented evidence and disciplined thinking. We need our best critical thinkers to examine this evidence. Richard has put his professional reputation on the line, and over 560 architecture and engineering professionals stand in solidarity with him at AE911truth.org. His credentials are impeccable… Continue reading
Introductory text at Religious Leaders for 911 Truth:
The religions of the world share universal values of love, truth, and justice,
and believe in helping those who are oppressed or otherwise in need. Many religious
persons try to engage in activities to make the world a better place, and they
trust in a Higher Power to assist them.
When faced with actions that conflict with the universal moral principle that
we should not do to others what we would not want done to ourselves or our loved
ones, members of faith communities have a responsibility to voice their opposition
to those actions. Many religious leaders throughout history have publicly challenged
morally unacceptable practices—recently, for example, in the civil rights
and anti-apartheid movements.
A significant moral challenge has emerged due to glaring discrepancies between
the official version of the events of September 11, 2001, and the results of
extensive independent research by individuals with relevant scientific or professional
"Independent" here means independent from the U.S. administration
that was in power at the time of the 9/11 attacks. The official reports about
9/11 were not independent in this sense. The 9/11 Commission was run by its
executive director, Philip Zelikow, who was closely associated with the Bush
administration. The official reports on the World Trade Center were produced
by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, which, as an agency of
the U.S. Commerce Department, was run by people employed by the Bush administration.
The independent research, which has led… Continue reading

From US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation
Action Alert re. Kucinich's Bill, HR66
January 12th, 2009
Last Friday, the House of Representatives voted 390 yes, 5 no, and 22 present to pass H.Res.34, "recognizing Israel's right to defend itself" and "reaffirming the United States strong support for Israel." To see if your Representative cosponsored this resolution, click here.To see how your Representative voted, click here. Last Thursday, the Senate voted on a similarly worded resolution, S.Res.10, which passed by unanimous consent.To see if your Senator cosponsored the resolution, click here.
The US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation opposed these resolutions because they failed to call for an immediate ceasefire and unimpeded humanitarian access to the occupied Gaza Strip as required under the terms of UN Security Council Resolution 1860. The resolutions also blamed the victims–the Palestinians–for the civilian casualties and humanitarian catastrophe Israel is inflicting upon them and absolved Israel of any responsibility for its actions.
Thankfully these resolutions will not be the final words of Congress on the issue. Yesterday, Rep. Dennis Kucinich introduced a resolution calling for "an immediate and unconditional ceasefire" and "unrestricted humanitarian access" to the occupied Gaza Strip. The US Campaign is supporting this resolution, which can be downloaded by clicking here.

The inauguration is almost upon us, and I am writing you with two important related matters. The first is a call to action to phone your senators with questions for Eric Holder's hearing on his nomination to be the next Attorney General. The second is to send you a link to a report we released yesterday on the simple steps to closing Guantánamo.
While President-Elect Obama has said he will close the base,he has yet to say how or when, which are the most important questions. We are all excited at the chance for a new beginning: it is up to us to make it one we can be proud of. Please call your senators, and please download and distribute our report so we can end this terrible chapter in our history.
I. This Thursday, January 15th, the Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing to decide whether nominee Eric Holder should be confirmed as the new Attorney General. While Holder's public statements suggest he would be a marked improvement over Alberto Gonzales and Michael Mukasey, it is critical that the American public be certain that our nation's chief lawyer has an unwavering commitment to upholding the rule of law.
Senate Judiciary Committee members have a serious responsibility to put an end to subverting law to politics – and to ensure that President-Elect Obama appoints an Attorney General who will help him restore, protect and expand our human rights. And it is… Continue reading
At 10am EST tomorrow morning, General Eric Shinseki, President-elect Obama's choice for VA Secretary, will try to convince Congress he's the right person for the job.
In advance of the hearing, IAVA released ten crucial questions that Congress needs to ask the nominee. And I'm going to be live-blogging about the hearing straight from DC, watching to see what issues are addressed.
Click here to follow along with my commentary in real time.
If he's confirmed, General Shinseki will be facing an urgent and critical fight to improve support for our nation's veterans. As a wounded and decorated combat veteran, and the first Asian-American in US history to be a four-star general, he has the potential to lead the second-largest bureaucracy in the US government into the 21st century.
However, the challenges facing today's veterans are radically different than the issues faced by previous generations. General Shinseki must demonstrate knowledge on issues ranging from implementation of the new GI Bill to providing the best health care possible for our newest generation of heroes.
All of this makes Wednesday morning's hearing one of the most important events for Iraq and Afghanistan veterans in a long time. As an Iraq veteran who was wounded in combat, I'm looking forward to watching the process unfold.
Click here for our top ten questions for General Shinseki and live commentary during the hearing.
Thank you for standing with us.

Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA)
January 8, 2008
This just in from Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, IAVA:
This week reports surfaced that KBR, a military-contracting firm, may have
knowingly exposed troops to dangerous toxins in Iraq. Today, I am asking you
to take a stand with IAVA, and call for accountability.
In April of 2003, members of the Indiana National Guard were protecting KBR
employees at a power plant in Southern Iraq. After their service, some of these
troops exhibited signs of cancer, tumors and rashes, and new reports indicate
that these injuries may be the result of exposure to toxins present at the site.
Incredibly, CBS News has uncovered evidence that KBR may have known
about the risks months before it took any action to inform those soldiers.
So far KBR has denied any wrongdoing, despite the evidence. Sign our petition
and tell KBR to come clean.
At least one Indiana Guardsman has died from lung cancer already. Others are
sick. In fact, records from the CBS investigation show that 60 percent of the
soldiers exposed "exhibit symptoms of exposure."
So please add your name to the petition.
We need your support to ensure that KBR works hand-in-hand with both Congress
and the military to find out exactly what needs to be done to protect our veterans.
We'll be working in Washington, D.C. to ensure that Congress addresses this
issue head-on with a full investigation, and outreach to the veterans who may
have been affected by this and similar cases.
Dear 9/11 Truth Advocates,
As 2009 arrives, 911Truth.org wishes you all the best, and extends our gratitude to each of you for your persistent courage and dedication to hard truths!
For nearly five years, 911Truth.org has served as your portal to reliable information about 9/11, its precedents and consequences, as an umbrella for hundreds of local truth activism groups, as a catalyst for national campaigns and new 9/11 truth special interest groups, and so much more. We are at a very critical juncture right now, as monthly donation pledges total about $500. We need to raise $15,000 for this first quarter of 2009 if we are to continue to provide these valuable services.
Please take a moment right now to help.
As we enter a new year, with a new administration coming into office, we are excited to continue this important work with some new opportunities–though admittedly, significant challenges remaining–in front of us!
Having witnessed the international reaction to the election of Barack Obama, we believe that a new dawn in political responsibility may be approaching. We therefore encourage the 9/11 community to take an optimistic, and persistent, educational approach to the new administration, one which will speak truth to power in a new relationship based on positive expectations of honesty and good faith. The approach we envisage continues to be based on the expectation that individuals within the United States Government and its citizens, once educated about 9/11, will recognize that only strength and respect would flow from… Continue reading

How will the American people set an agenda in Washington that guarantees deep change?
How can we aim high, and demand the impossible?
How can we guarantee Barack Obama will fulfill the hope and promise he has represented?
(And how deep will the change really be, when you've put together a centrist cabinet?)
Inaugurate Yourself! will gather fellow rebels and radicals, spiritual people and political instigators, people who want to speak out and support Sander Hicks "Three New Imperatives:"
1. We can visualize the US Government renouncing violence within our lifetime. If the Democratic Party won't embrace the radical call to peace and nonviolence of Gandhi, King, Jesus of Nazareth, Dorothy Day, and others, then it's up to us. The US can really lead the world for the first time, not with the strength of its right arm, but with a new ideal of peaceful conflict resolution. It's time for us to evolve. This is a natural next step.
2. We call on the US to start an innovative green venture capital program, to rejuvenate the economy, and change the whole paradigm of "dog eat dog" capitalism. Capitalism, too, must evolve. The government could have a role, not as a bumbling huge bureaucracy, but as a creative instigator and funder of conscious, sustainable new companies that act in the public interest, produce important new goods and services, and use the public markets to create a… Continue reading

Secure a place in your cities parade.
North Texans for 9/11 Truth are making plans for this January's
MLK parade in Dallas . We encourage other 9/11 Truth Groups to start making
plans now by submitting applications to march in their local parade. This type
of 911TRUTH action can have an extremely positive IMPACT !!
Martin Luther King Jr. Day will be celebrated on Monday January 19, 2009. During
the course of that holiday weekend, many municipalities will have parades and
public events. This is a fantastic opportunity for 9/11 Truth Groups to generate
an extremely positive impact.
In 2008, North Texans for 9/11 Truth marched in the Dallas MLK
parade after Joe pushed through the application process. The crowds were very,
very receptive to 911 TRUTH! People were smiling and waving and even cheering
us on. Some in the crowd were shouting that they know the official story is
a lie. Our group gave away more than 500 DVDs and hundreds of flyers, until
we finally ran out. People were clamoring for the free DVDs and flyers. We easily
could have given out several thousand DVDs to the lines of people hungry for
truth. This year, we are planning to be well prepared with thousands of DVDs
and broadsheet-flyers.

Another day, another non-denial denial that Bush is planning midnight
preemptive blanket pardons for his entire gang, including himself. In
an article in the New York Times the other day,
current attorney general Mukasey is quoted as asserting it would not be "necessary".
Please take careful note he did not say it wouldn't happen, because
unless we speak out now it WILL.
The best shot we have is H.Res. 1531 which puts the administration on
clear notice that there will be strong push back from Congress if
they attempt such a scurrilous stunt. Please submit this action page
to ask your House member to sign on as a co-sponsor of this measure.

We all know that George Bush as someone without even the guts to face
his own music, he who sent more that four thousand brave Americans to
their senseless graves, for a premeditated and knowing lie in Iraq,
tens of thousands of American crippled and mutilated for life,
trillions looted from our economy, and he doesn't even have the
simple courage to risk the accountability of having to defend his
numberless crimes in a fair trial.
It is now known that Nixon seriously considered pardoning himself,
but even he was not THAT despicable. George Bush most certainly is.
And remember that his administration has been infested with Nixon era
cronies like Cheney and Rumsfeld, so it is no surprise that the
malfeasance of the Nixon era has been magnified… Continue reading

Donna Marsh O'Connor's idea that a scientist be appointed to head the National Institute of Standards and Technology (imagine that!) is still listed here.
Donna Marsh O'Connor submitted this idea at change.org on November 9 (language below), which was then promoted at both 911truth.org and 911blogger. But at this point, the newly posted initiative has 297 votes, and is in this category's first place. Those of you who acted quickly to support Donna's initiative should nonetheless now vote for the new one, which has gained much more attention. And another initiative for the same thing was posted today… let's try to focus on ONE of these now, and thus honestly reflect the demand for a new investigation.

Now-famous Alabama Shakes return with confidence, polish
So much has happened to Alabama Shakes in the past nine months that the band that sold out the Riverside Theater on Friday is in a sense different from the one that sold out the Pabst Theater in March.
Back in March, the Southern rock band anchored by Brittany Howard's bountiful voice had never headlined a show for so many people before. (Credit $10 tickets, frequent RadioMilwaukee airplay and strong endorsements from Adele and trendsetting music writers for the sellout.) Given the size of the crowd of approximately 1,300 people (and the volume of their chatter), the band initially appeared stiff; perhaps the Shakes' nerves were shaky. But when hundreds sang "Hold On" along with Howard, the frontwoman flashed a stunned smile. Clearly it was a sound she hadn't heard before, not on that level. »Read Full Article(3)

Press release from Business Wire
Zamansky & Associates Advises JPMorgan Employees It Has Been Appointed Lead Counsel in "London Whale" JPMorgan ERISA Case
Tuesday, October 16, 2012
Zamansky & Associates Advises JPMorgan Employees It Has Been Appointed Lead Counsel in "London Whale" JPMorgan ERISA Case11:50 EDT Tuesday, October 16, 2012 NEW YORK (Business Wire) -- Zamansky & Associates has been appointed by the Court to serve as sole interim lead counsel in an ERISA class action on behalf of JPMorgan Chase ("JPM") employees. The case concerns the losses JPM employees suffered as a result of the JPM's stock drop once the "London Whale" derivative trading losses were belatedly disclosed. ERISA imposes fiduciary duties on companies to prudently manage and invest plan assets. These duties were violated by JPM's failure to effectively monitor and disclose the risks associated with the "London Whale" trades. On May 10, 2012, JPM shocked financial markets when it first disclosed publicly that it had suffered a $2 billion trading loss from complex, proprietary derivatives trades. Jamie Dimon, the CEO, has said, "This should never have happened. I can't justify it. Unfortunately, these mistakes are self-inflicted." Since that time, JPM's loss from the trading position has reportedly grown to as much as $6 billion. JPM stock suffered steep declines once the losses were disclosed. On May 10, 2012, JPM opened at $41.25 per share, and within ten days had fallen to $32.51. As a result, JPM's retirement and 401(k) plans have suffered hundreds of millions of dollars in losses. It was recently reported that a criminal investigation into the losses has commenced. If you are a current or former employee of JPMorgan Chase and participated in the company's retirement plans, including its 401(k), its Deferred Compensation Program or its Retirement Plan, please contact us to discuss your legal rights. About Zamansky & Associates Zamansky & Associates is one of the leading law firms specializing in securities fraud and financial services arbitration and class action litigation. We represent both individual and institutional investors and courts have appointed us lead or co-lead counsel in numerous complex securities class actions.

Your 401(k) might nosedive after Greece's 'no' vote, but don't panic -- CNN Chief Business Correspondent Christine Romans breaks down what the Greek debt crisis means for your money.
Yanis Varoufakis resigned as Greece's Finance Minister after Sunday's referendum, saying the move could help Prime Minister Tsipras reach an agreement with creditors. His replacement has not yet been announced.
An emergency EU Summit will be held Tuesday to discuss Greece's future in the eurozone after the nation voted by a large margin against Europe's latest bailout offer.
Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras addressed the nation as referendum results point to a win for the 'no' vote, calling the decision a 'victory for democracy' and confirming that Greece will go back to negotiations Monday.
The 'no' vote is leading the tally after a referendum that could determine Greece's future in the eurozone. CNN's Richard Quest speaks to the nation's Deputy Minister of Interior about the historic vote.

New WHO and World Bank Group report monitoring universal health coverage
A World Health Organization and World Bank Group report launched on 12 June shows that 400 million people do not have access to essential health services and 6% of people in low- and middle-income countries are tipped into or pushed further into extreme poverty because of health spending.
The report, Tracking Universal Health Coverage, is the first of its kind to measure health service coverage and financial protection to assess countries' progress towards universal health coverage (UHC). Implementing UHC is a Target within the proposed post-2015 Development Goals.
A commitment to equity is at the heart of UHC. As more countries make commitments to universal health coverage, one of the major challenges they face is how to track progress.
Public Forum at WCDRR:
Protecting People's HEALTH from Disaster Risks
The Third World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction (WCDRR) was held from 14 to 18 March 2015 in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan. Countries from around the world met to review and update the Hyogo Framework for Action, endorsed in 2005 at the Second World Conference held in Kobe. Health issues and strategies to protect the health of people in disasters are much more important in the revised framework. During the Conference, events were organized for the general public, including symposiums and exhibitions on themes related to health and disaster risk reduction and management.
On March 17, WHO, UNAIDS, UNFPA, and UNISDR co-organized a public forum "PROTECTING PEOPLE'S HEALTH FROM DISASTER RISKS". Over 30 speakers from all over the world and from the fields of disaster prevention, public health, medicine, and more discussed comprehensive disaster risk reduction and management for health. The full day Forum had 7 sessions covering many topics in health emergency management.
WKC Forum: Creating resilient society and community for ageing populations in disaster situations, 20 February 2015
In commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, the WHO Kobe Centre, in collaboration with the University of Hyogo, organized an open, public forum on "Creating resilient society and community for ageing populations in disaster situations" in Kobe on 20 February 2015. A diverse audience of 43 persons participated in the event from local government, universities, health professionals and the public.
In the Forum, five experts presented their knowledge, research outcomes, and suggestions from various perspectives including nursing and disaster management, social welfare for older populations, psychology, and community healthcare to explore major components of resilient society/community with ageing population. The presentations were based on the experts' experiences and interaction with older populations.
Japan has the largest proportion of older adults in the world. As a result, aged populations were much more affected, and accounted for more than half of the victims in the 1995 Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake and in the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake.
Intersectoral Action for Health (ISA)
Intersectoral action for health (ISA) refers to the inclusion of several sectors in addition to the health sector when designing and implementing public policies to improve quality of life. To promote ISA, WKC developed a guidance booklet titled "Intersectoral Action on Health, a path for policy-makers to implement effective and sustainable action on health" in 2011 and have since documented ISA experiences through case studies. The guidance booklet is now in preparation for revision.
In May 2014, WKC held the Expert Consultation to collectively review and develop recommendations for the revision of the guidance booklet. The meeting report highlights recent global developments and experiences in ISA and a synthesis of the recommendations for the revision of the booklet.
In addition, new recent publications on ISA case studies in local governments conducted by WKC have been published. The findings provide valuable insight into the common challenges and success factors for local governments to mobilize ISA for better health outcomes.

Well Mr. Teddy Lee was born Valentines night at 10:28pm. 4 hours and 13 minutes labor. Kinda scary as I popped from a 5cm to a 10cm in 30 min. My epideral was wonderful but then all of a sudden I felt pressure in my bottom and litteraly had to cross my legs and hold him in until dr. showed up. What a ride.
He weighed 6 pounds and 7 ounces and was 18 3/4 inch long. He has brown hair with a blonde spot. LOL His eyes look to be blue. He's perfect. I'm adding some pics but he's already changed quite a bit. He's nursing really well. He falls asleep so I have to switch positions often and hes only in a diaper. That helps. Once he gets better I'll dress him. LOL

How bad do you want a Hawaii vacation? Controversial discount carrier Allegiant Air, has just announced Hawaii deals starting now for as low as $139 each way and all summer long from just $203 each way. These fares include taxes and fees, but do not include their optionals like seat selection, priority boarding, food and all beverages, boarding pass printing, checked and carry-on bags.
Controversy not withstanding, these are simply excellent Hawaii deals. Savings are approximately $320 in low season, and $357 in summer, round trip, based on currently available fares on Hawaiian Airlines and other carriers out of Los Angeles.
These prices are not available all days/flights and availability was checked as of February 5, 2014. These could be gone at any time so it is best to act today.
$139 each way (winter and spring)
$149 each way (winter and spring)
$203 each way (summer)

I saw on your website that you have a Deal to Hawaii from Los Angeles to Honolulu
Flight period from 6/29, 7/3,7/4,7/6 2014 for $203 each way with
Allegiant Airline. Pls let me know how to get it
Bcuz when I called the airline they don't know abt it.
Pls let me know. Do you have promotion code?
Beat of Hawaii (1 year ago)
Hi Valerie,
That was valid when it was published which was months ago.
Allegiant continues to have excellent fares between LA and Honolulu, so do check their website.
Lorena (1 year ago)
Looking to travel out there July 14, I heard that its some times cheaper if I wait to make the travel arrangements last minute. Is this a smart thing to do?
Beat of Hawaii (1 year ago)
Hi Lorena,
Yes last minute – even within the last few days can sometimes yield excellent airfares. It can also yield sold out airfares, especially in July. Hard to predict.
dayna (1 year ago)
Hi my family will be traveling to LA towards the end of October, do you know if the fall fares will be cheaper than $618 round trip?
Beat of Hawaii (1 year ago)
Hi Dayna,
It is possible for your dates. But keep in mind that LA has had very few deals, so it isn't guaranteed.

What is tge best way to fly Dallas to Maui .Planning a trip April 30 to May 10th
Beat of Hawaii (1 year ago)
Hi Melissa,
If you can return on 5/11 the fare is $844 nonstop. Otherwise it will cost $200 more.
Alleson (1 year ago)
Crossing my fingers for a deal June 5-14 on a carrier other than Allegiant. (Kicking myself for not using miles back at the 330 day mark.) Any chance of seeing something from MCI, or we could fly west and get to HNL from there. (Currently that's a slightly better deal, and we could fly HA which I read great things about.) Wasn't sure if I should continue to stalk prices, or just bite the bullet and settle for $1k per ticket. Thanks!
Al (1 year ago)
Do you think the other carriers will have sales as well?
Beat of Hawaii (1 year ago)
Hi Al,
There will be other spring sales, but we expect no summer sales. Other airlines do not generally have a need to compete with Allegiant. This is a unique offer.
cat (1 year ago)
Gone already.
Beat of Hawaii (1 year ago)
Still priced as when published.

Critical Essay by G. F. Waller
The almost obligatory topic with which to introduce Oates is, in fact, the amount she has published. A survey of her work may suggest a compulsive writer and maybe even a lack of self-criticism. Her poems … are often jagged and metrically uncertain, and sometimes over-packed with superfluous words; but frequently they can crystallize with electrifying clarity inexplicable moments of experience on the edge of fear, despair, terror, or joy. Many read, in fact, like passionate footnotes to her stories or novels…. As well as overlapping with her fiction, her criticism, it should be noted, is often extraordinarily suggestive, especially in the way it opens up, by analogy or brooding meditation, startling psychological and philosophical perspectives.
It is in the short stories perhaps that Oates's best work is to be found…. Many of the stories are...

Countryside, Environment and Wildlife
Key Contacts
Other Staff
Interest in protecting the environment, conservation and the countryside has never been so high with issues such as climate change and population growth sitting at the top of global agendas.
This has led to ground breaking developments in environmental science and countryside management including things such as environmental monitoring, pollution issues, ecology, water quality management and sustainable systems.
It has also resulted in the growth of environmental and land-based organisations who act as guardians and campaigners for the countryside. One thing that they all have in common is the need for skilled and qualified personnel to sustain their work and objectives.
There are therefore many career opportunities in this field with, for example, environmental and land-based consultancies, statutory bodies like the Environment Agency, local authorities, and employers such as Natural England, DEFRA, Wildlife Trusts, and the National Trust.
A qualification gained at Harper Adams University will definitely make you an attractive proposition for employers looking for people with the specialist skills they need.

36 year old man | San Francisco, CA, USA | Seeking women 22-33 within 50 miles
Hello San Francisco!
I'm half happy-go-lucky idealist, and half strong-silent-type, at the same time. I talk to strangers. I dance with strangers. I'm there for my friends. I have a strong moral compass. I smile a lot and joke about everything and argue politics and play sports and drink way more chocolate milk than anyone I know. I travel. It's a big world and it's all ours. I think spending 11 months a year inside the US is about right :) I love adventures, but I'm also an incredibly big fan of chilling out in a comfy spot with a book, or a game, movie, music, ice cream, dreams, whatever. I need quiet-time. I want variety in a fractal kind of way - I want variety in how much variety I have - utter chaos interspersed with simplicity. I'm looking for a relationship: not a one-night-stand, not a platonic friend. We should like adventuring and dancing and talking and kissing. I'm looking for a friend. A best friend. I've only had a few best friends my whole life, and now I'm shopping for a new best friend. Who I like to ****. And live with. And raise kids with. For the next 70 years. Hard to find, even harder to look for: the only way is a first date, and a second, ... until we meet someone who makes us not want to date anybody else because we like dating each other so friggin much. There are going to be quite a few first dates before that last-first-date, so let's make them fun things we'd like to do anyway, okay? Good shows & nice restaurants & fun sports & anything new and interesting. What else ... my 2013 new year's resolution? Every day: something athletic, something artistic. Dancing counts as both. Update, October: so far this year, I've run, swum, biked, hiked, boxed, lifted weights, done thousands of pushups, some yoga and aerial silks and a lot of rock climbing, played ultimate frisbee, soccer, and badminton, herded goats, danced tango, blues, salsa, rueda, capoeira, modern dance, contact improv, house, and to EDM, painted, drawn, written, delivered a talk, played the piano and the guitar and sung, acted, built things, attended art galleries, museums, zoos, concerts, plays, ballets, and dance performances, read a few dozen books, and more. It's been a good year.

The City Congregation for Humanistic Judaism
Sunday, April 21, 2013 from 3:30 PM to 5:15 PM (EDT)
In 1994, Ismael Diadie Haidara, a Muslim historian in Timbuktu, Mali learned that his family was descended from Jews. He began a decade-long quest to build a community of Muslims who identify with the Jewish people and seek the support of Jews from around the world.
Rick Gold, a specialist in international development programming who served 29 years in the Foreign Service of the U.S. Agency for International Development, will share his experience working with the Jews of Timbuktu. Since 2004, he has managed and overseen international programs focusing on assisting democratic development, the rule of law and human rights. He led program development and implementation for the USAID Democracy and Governance Office in Mali from 1993-1997, where he made contact with the Jews of Timbuktu. He is a former President of Machar, The Washington, D.C. Congregation for Secular Humanistic Judaism.
The City Congregation is a diverse and welcoming community serving secular and cultural Jews throughout the New York City area.

West Cumbrian school's award tribute to teaching assistant
Last updated at 14:01, Friday, 06 September 2013
An inspirational Dearham teaching assistant has been posthumously nominated for a prestigious education award.
Denise Clark, 52, who worked at Dearham Primary School, died on June 28 from breast cancer.
Three weeks later, Dearham headteacher Samantha Kidd nominated Mrs Clark for the 2013 CN Group Education and Learning Awards as a tribute.
Mrs Kidd said: "She was an inspiration and not just through her illness. She was a very upbeat, fun and genuine person.
"I am nominating Denise because I can think of no one else who has ever deserved such an award or made such an outstanding contribution to the life of a school and a community.
"It wasn't just a job for her. She always gave up her time willingly."
Mrs Clark, who worked for the school for 10-and-a-half years, has been nominated in the teaching assistant of the year category in the awards, also known as the Golden Apples.
Mrs Clark, who was a higher level teaching assistant, was diagnosed with cancer in 2009 and went through four operations, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
In 2010 all the treatment was complete, but in October 2011 she was diagnosed with secondary cancer and told it was terminal.
Even while recuperating from illness, Mrs Clark, of Stainburn Road, Workington, was constantly in touch with the school to check up on her class.
She was particularly close to 10-year-old pupil Nathan Hadley, who suffers from autism.
She gave one-to-one support to Nathan from nursery to year six.
On a school trip to France in June, Nathan bought a yellow scarf for Mrs Clark, but she died on the final day of the trip.
Nathan gave the scarf to her family, and pupils in her class recorded a song which was played at her funeral.
Mrs Kidd said: "Denise was a great support for Nathan's family.
"There was a community feel behind the nomination. She had built up relationships with the parents of the pupils.
"The support and depth of feeling they had for Denise was amazing."
Her daughter Tamsin, 23, of Hartside Court, Workington, had organised a C2C cycle ride from Workington to Sunderland on June 28 to raise money for the hospital that treated Mrs Clark.
The ride was intended to raise money for the breast unit at Whitehaven's West Cumberland Hospital and Hospice at Home West Cumbria.
Miss Clark said: "We are really proud that she has been nominated.
"If she was here, she would tell you she was just doing her job.
"To her class she was almost like a second mum. The kids just loved her."
The shortlisted contenders were selected by a panel of judges, and winners will be revealed next month.

Cute and fun? Where are you?
I'm not that great at talking about myself but here goes...I'm an athletic, active, fun-loving, witty, nice guy who is looking to find the same in a woman. I work hard during the day but can play hard during the night too. I'm a financial manager for a major hospital in Boston. I live in a nice neighborhood in Charlestown and am looking for a funny and attractive woman who can keep up! Can you? I'm really laid back and down to earth and just looking to meet a nice woman and see where it goes. The worst that could happen is you meet someone you never have met otherwise. Here is a little about me, but there is a lot more to me than just pictures, my job or these ten lines! If you'd like to know more about me, shoot me an email and we can go from there.

My favorite food is seafood or Italian My favorite color is blue. Being curled up on the couch and watching a good movie.
As cliche as it sounds, I'm really into going to a good movie with someone fun. When on my own, I love to read; I like to switch between nonfiction and fiction so I can learn as well as be entertained. Walking my two dogs is another favorite...
The last book I read was called "Defending Jacob" by William Landay. Great suspense and crime novel and the author is from Boston so there is a lot of references to Boston. Great book. I'm now reading his first book.

CANNELTON – A longtime Cannelton employer will close its doors in the next year, resulting in the loss of about 40 jobs. It will also bring an end to a decades-old tradition of manufacturing high-quality safes in the city.
The Master Lock Co. announced this week that it will close its Sentry Safe manufacturing facilities in Cannelton and in Rochester, N.Y. The Cannelton plant was owned for decades by Schwab Corp. and is still known by that name to many in the local community.

MILLSTONE – A Tennessee man was killed early Saturday after the car he was driving overturned at the intersection of Millstone Road and Indiana 166 south of Rocky Point.
According to the Perry County Sheriff's Department, Matthew D. Huggins, 27, of Portland, Tenn., and a passenger, Mark D. Galu, 26, were traveling on Indiana 166 when their Isuzu flipped onto its side.
TELL CITY – Schweizer Fest is still more than a month away, but plans for the city's 57th celebration of Swiss and German heritage is already in full swing. One event returning for a second year is the Edelweiss Ball. Named after the national flower of Switzerland, the event is set for Saturday, Aug. 1, at the Schergens Center.
Once a regular part of the Schweizer Fest, the galas were discontinued in the 1960s, but returned last year as a fundraising event for the Perry County Museum.

PERRY COUNTY -– Two small community groceries, on opposite ends of the county, have closed their doors. Tuesday, June 30, marked the last days of operation for Mick's Market in Troy, as well as the Derby General Store.
TELL CITY – Tell City Police Officer Derrick Lawalin and his trained K-9 partner, Jago, will visit the Perry County Public Library's Tell City branch at 1 p.m. Saturday, June 27, as part of the library's summer "Hero" reading program.
TELL CITY – A summertime tradition for many years, Perry County's Summer Fest picnic, sponsored by Moose Lodge 1424, will return to Zoercher-Bettinger Park today through Saturday, June 25-27. Gene O' Rides of Fordsville, Ky., will operate rides all three days and is expected to bring some new rides to the festival. Wrist bands offering unlimited rides for a day can be purchased for $20.
PERRY COUNTY – While Perry County's 4-H'ers have another week to complete their projects, several "pre-fair" events are planned for this weekend at the 4-H fairgrounds in Tell City.
"We are calling them pre-fair events but it's going to be a lot of fun. Everyone hopes for a good turnout this weekend and again when our fair gets underway," said Cathy Boerste, Perry County's extension agent for 4-H and youth development.

TELL CITY – An already wild year of weather continued Friday as a line of storms triggered a small tornado that touched down briefly near Troy, downing trees and limbs but causing no structural damage and no injuries.
The National Weather Service placed Perry County under a tornado warning after reports were received of a funnel cloud in Hancock County, Ky. The storm produced ominous-looking clouds with clear rotation visible from downtown Tell City.

What You Can Expect
Upon arrival at Wai-O-Tapu, your experienced guide leads you along well-marked paths to reach a series of brilliantly colored natural pools of steaming hot water that bubble with geothermal activity. Hear a morning presentation about the Lady Knox Geyser and watch the daily eruption that shoots a fountain of water high into the air.
Your guide explains how the Tarawera Volcano eruption in 1866 formed the park's natural hot springs that glow in bright yellow, orange and turquoise colors. Your guide also points out examples of how the native bush regenerated after the eruption. As you take in bubbling mud pools, steaming lakes and more, you'll understand why Wai-O-Tapu is considered one of the world's most surreal places.
Expect a leisurely walk along wide trails with plenty of time for photo ops and informative commentary from your guide. Feel free to ask any questions that you may have as you admire the otherworldly beauty of Wai-O-Tapu.
See even more geothermal spots during a short drive through the Waimangu Volcanic Valley. Your guide explains the ways that local Maori people have used the sites as well as how New Zealand's volcanic processes work.
At the end of your 4-hour tour, your guide returns you to your Rotorau hotel.
Customer Reviews
June 2015
Rotoura is an amazing area. The geothermal areas are beautiful. Our tour guide Trent was awesome. His knowledge of the area and history of New Zealand and Maori culture is 2nd to none.
June 2015
This tour was excellent. A great deal of credit goes to Trent, the driver/tour guide, who provided great information and background on this amazing part of the world. I recommend it to anyone. Not too strenuous, and gets one out into the thermal areas and parks.

I've an idea! As it's due to rain later on today, and for the next few days, I think Del's suggestion of doing something you both like is a good one. On the way back home from the restaurant (or wherever), get him wet and roll him in mud!
He'll thank you for it, later!!!

How to Make Grubby Candles
By: CandleWic
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Grubby candles have a rustic look, as though they are missing a layer of wax in sections. The finish of the grubby candle actually effects the surface of the candle. These candles are very easy to make. Here is how to make grubby candles.
Any size aluminum mold can be used for this candle. The most popular we find is the 3 x 4½. You begin this project by chilling the mold for about 10-15 minutes. You then take the 4045H wax and add about 10% stearic acid to the formulation. Melt your wax to around 150-155 degrees Fahrenheit and pour into the chilled mold as any standard pillar. Top off where needed and remove when the candle has completely hardened. Due to the peeling of the wax the candle may have to be placed in the freezer for removal.

Guard Jack Meiners is also listed as questionable, but Max Copeland is still the starter at right guard. I'll have more later on today, once Missouri holds its weekly media session at 3:30 p.m.

31 year old woman | Arcadia, CA, USA | Seeking men 27-35 in Los Angeles, California, United States
It's all fun and games until someone doesn't pick up on the sarcasm...
New...er to LA. Born 'n' bred in San Diego. Went to U of A (for my program, not to be a sorority girl.) In lieu of discussing the usual tidbits that pretty much everyone wants, I'll share insight into what I'm not looking for: - No egos (confident yes, not cocky) - Not rude -Not an idiot -Not mean After enough time at this, I realize someone who I think is funny is one of the biggest reasons to have that person in my life and is often the best indicator of attraction (for me.) I digress,... I don't really want someone who is always right and will tell me why each and every time. - I dislike drama (unless it has nothing to do with me and I can have a nice cold beer whilst I watch it from afar.) Honestly, I just prefer easy men (easy-going that is...just kidding...I like easy men. Just kidding again, I really don't want to come off as something I'm not, a smart ass. Kidding again, I don't want to come off as slutty of course.) I love my job. It has become my life and actually makes me excited to get up each and every day. I love my friends and consider them my family. I think honesty, humility, loyalty, passion and not trying too hard are all pretty important attributes in life. I love sports and am not the girl who will yell at you for watching/going/talking about them. Love drinking good, cold beer, being around good, warm people and meeting new characters. When I take time off (rare) I want to make it count so my trips tend to revolve around my best friends and visiting the various places they have moved to. I would love to travel more (so hopefully sharing that with someone and more time off will allow for that), skydive, jump off a cliff, explore this still new city and/or learn a new language (I would also like the willpower to actually dedicate time to that last endeavor). I love the spontaneity that comes when someone else plans the events. I hate being the person who decides where everyone meets (too much pressure) and would actually look forward to meeting a man who is traditional in the sense of taking charge...planning dinner, activities, a date, etc... As much as I love what I do, it has taken me away from many friends and family so I would like to share new experiences with someone and make this a place I want to be. Loving what you do is important, but I know that it's not everything. Sooo here I am, on a website, trying to meet cool people since I'm not in high school anymore and it's not exactly like "Hey, wanna hang out sometime?" works just walking down the street. I would like to talk to someone who is real. To me, real is someone who can talk about anything (not just themselves), has surrounded themselves with great people, is honest, humble, empathetic, knows how to listen (sometimes) and someone who knows what they want. But I also think real is being able to laugh and talk for hours too and just go with it sometimes. I would appreciate someone who isn't afraid to have some fun in the meantime and who doesn't make everything a make-or-break moment.

If you remember way back to when I first introduced our little ole' outdoor room (aka backyard) to everyone earlier this year, you might recall how much work we had to do to get to this:
Here's a quick link to Part 1 & Part 2.
Our *dream* backyard included an outdoor grilling area, fireplace and big comfy sectional. Evenings of smores & stargazing, afternoons of hamburgers & cold beer – who could ask for anything more?
Here's the backyard mid-project:
I couldn't be more proud of my handy husband who I'm pretty sure knows how to fix anything and everything known to man. So… weekends of pulling up brick, tearing down walls and much MUCH cement, stucco, and tile later… here she is!
This DIY project was a monster – but isn't it beautiful! We opted for a shade sail for added coverage (a throw back to our love of sailing) and it was an economical option when we found one on ebay for less than $50. The grill and ice bin were Craiglist finds, and the sectional was my hybrid Pottery Barn & DIY project (follow the jump for more on that).
Can you believe this used to be a carpeted, walled-in room?
To keep the outdoor kitchen within budget, we used our favorite site Craigslist and Home Depot coupons for everything from cement block to grout to our counter top tile.
While Kevin took on the bulk of the redesign, my big project was the future seating area. I fell in love with a Pottery Barn sectional (see above inspiration board) and thought that surely I could replicate the find on a local, more inexpensive level. After searching every store here in the area (including the plethora of online options!) I came up with a hybrid solution that involved sewing, stuffing and Sunbrella galore.
For the cushion DIY project,…

We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
