Ginny Hanusik
2014, Focus Area: Architecture & Urban Studies
Ginny Hanusik is a native of the Hudson Valley Region. After transferring to Bard at the beginning of her sophomore year, Ginny decided to pursue the interests she had developed while working with Clearwater (starting in 2009) by taking classes in EUS. Her interest in enivronmental and urban issues lead her to become a volunteer with the New Orleans Project, a TLS project at Bard. As part of her involvement in the project, she traveled to New Orleans and worked for the Broadmoor Development Corporation as an intern responsible for surveying properties in a neighborhood that suffered damage under Katrina. According to Ginny, her experience in New Orleans "resulted in a life-changing experience that confirmed my course of study at school and ultimately my desired career path ... This was my first exposure to the world of urban planning, community development, and architecture." Since then, Ginny has become the program director for the New Orleans Exchange Program, worked at various non-profits such as Hudson River Housing, and participated in environmental conservation projects like the Fallkill Creek Planning Project. Ginny's senior project combined her interests in photography, the natural environment, and urban studies: "Through classes at Bard I developed an interest in photography and am interested in exploring the relationships between land, the built environment, and identity. This work has awarded me the opportunity to explore my senior project in an artistic way as I traveled throughout the South this past January with the help of the Andrew Mellon Foundation." She most recently won the Geoffrey H. Bruce Fellowship at Arcosanti to continue working on her photographic projects. You can check out some of her work here:
. Most recently, Ginny became the Programs and Outreach Coordinator at Propeller, a non-profit that assists environmental and social projects get off the ground in New Orleans. Here is a link to their website:
Inés Chapela
2014, Focus Area: Anthropology
Inés comes to Bard from Berkely, CA. She first became interested in EUS after taking an introductory course in geography her freshman year. The class exposed her to the methods used to study the way in which human populations move through and interact with manmade and natural spaces. She began to think more seriously about humanity's relationship to the environment. Another favorite courses of Inés's was called "Raised By Wolves" which explored animal symbolism. As a result she is currently writing her senior project on cultural representations of animals and human-animal interactions. Extracurricularly, Inés has had a four year internship at The Greenhorns, a grassroots non-profit based out of the Hudson Valley which promotes and supports young farmers. "It's really exciting work," she says, "to be coordinating events and working with very sparkly, curious people!" Continuing to talk about her senior project work she says, "I'm super excited about animals. What they eat, where they sleep, what they look like, etc. I think animals are fascinating and the question of human animal interactions and relationships is vital particularly today when we are really pushing the Earth and its resources to such a brutal extent."
Jennifer Gillen
2014, Focus Area: Ecology/Conservation
Two summers ago, I interned at the Huyck Preserve and Biological Research Station as an Odum intern. I did research with fern biologist and Colgate professor Eddie Watkins and three other interns. After learning about fern reproduction and physiology, we designed a research project to compare the physiology of ferns to understory angiosperms. We collected data on photosynthetic rates (using a machine called a LI-COR), root and leaf mass, the number of stomata, and mineral composition. We compared these data of three ferns with three analogous understory angiosperm plants.
I also worked with the director of conservation and research Dawn O'Neal on the Monitoring Avian Productivity and Survivorship (MAPS) Program. Every two weeks, we would go out by the lake around 5am to set up mist nets and wait for the birds. After birds flew into the nets, we would untangle them and document the species of bird, sex, length, and wing length, and then set the birds free. These data were compiled with those across the nation to help better analyze the effectiveness of bird conservation efforts and to monitor bird populations.
At Bard, I have volunteered and worked at Hudsonia, a non-profit ecological research organization. I first did research on the potential fracking effects on biodiversity, and I published a paper on this research with Dr. Erik Kiviat in the journal Environmental Practice. This past summer, I worked with Erik Kiviat and an intern studying the state-threatened Blanding's turtle. I have also volunteered with many Bard-affiliated ecological programs, like glass eel monitoring and helping salamanders migrate across roads. As an EUS major, I want to integrate knowledge about conservation, wildlife biology, economics, and urban development to become a naturalist and ecologist who understands that the urban and "natural" world are not inherently separate. The preservation of biodiversity is dependent not only on biological knowledge, but also on economic policies, urban sprawl, land development, state and federal laws, and so much more.
Lia Soorenian
2014, Focus Area: Urban Planning
Lia Soornian is currently a senior at Bard College concentrating in Urban Planning. Originally from Los Angeles, California, Lia was attracted the the interdisciplinary nature of EUS when she first signed up for a class within the department. Since then she's taken classes on GIS software, Urban & Ecological Economics and the design/construction of 'green' student media space. Extracurricularly she has been a member of Bard's Environmental Collective, which allowed her to participate in an environmental conference called PowerShift in Washington DC. Her sophomore year work on Professor Gidon Eshel's greenhouse was published in the Bard Science Journal and as a result, she presented on green building practices at a sustainability conference in the University at Albany SUNY. Last Winter, Lia won a Bard Mellon Grant Student Travel Award and Bard Center for Civic Engagement Community Action Grant to research projects in sustainability in Armenia. During her final year at Bard she has started a Trustee Leader Scholar Project called BardBuilds which connects Bard students from a variety of disciplines who are interested in Urban Planning and Architecture to local organizations and professionals in the field including the City of Kingston's Planning Office and Bard's own administration. Lia also recently won aDavis Projects For Peace Prize which will allow her to continue her work on sustainability in Armenia. "I believe urban planning is about the space inbetween buildings," says Lia. "And it's what we do with alleyways, sidewalks, streets and plazas, that makes our city thrive. We, the people, have the tools to make the human experience sustainable, safe, significant, and most importantly, beautiful. Most recently Lia was admitted to Columbia's urban planning graduate program with a fellowship.
Logan Hollarsmith
2014, Focus Area: Anthropology
Logan is completing his senior year at Bard College. His major interests lie in the social sciences, history, anthropology, and urban theory. This year, he has elected to take courses that explore the ecological history of the earth, the cultural politics of animals and the history of capitalism. Though the courses vary greatly in subject matter and method of study, Logan says, they are all related under "the broad umbrella" of Environmental and Urban Studies. And that's what he loves about the major: Because the EUS program is interdisciplinary, majors have the opportunity to explore a variety of subjects that all gear towards understanding human and environmental ecology. "What systems brought us to this place and what does it mean to be an environmentalist today? An environmentalist ought to understand the complexity of the earth's systems and how they interact: communications, histories, anthropological cultures. I look at every course I take through the lens of EUS. In a way, everyone is an environmentalist. [Environmentalism,] it's a practice of love."
Logan runs the Bard Bike Co-Op, a service that uses parts from discarded or used bikes to build and fashion new bikes. Logan believes it provides students with a place to build some practical skills and do some hands on work outside of their more academic, writing and reading intensive classes. The co-op also encourages students to use their bikes as their main form of transport on and off campus. Recently, Logan delivered relief items to victims of hurricane Sandy on his bike. Last summer, he rode his bike across the country from Bard's campus to his native town of San Francisco, California, taking interviews along the way on American governance, citizens' roles in their community and the natural environment, and the economic situation. He says he discovered that "everyone I talked to pretty much said that people just need to help each other forward."
Rachel Hyman
Rachel Hyman, an EUS student of the class of 2012 was inspired to pursue a career in the environmentally related field after taking Bill Maple's Field Study of Natural History course. She said, "romping through the Tivoli Bays, I experienced firsthand the joys of place-based learning in Bill's field study ecology course. I wanted to share that experience with children." As a result, during her junior year at Bard, she started the Young Naturalists Initiative, which is an environmental education outreach program designed to get kids from Kingston out to the public lands around the Hudson Valley region. Upon graduating, she moved to Utah to work as a Park Ranger with Arches National Park's Canyon Country Outdoor Education Program- where she currently works to teach curriculum-based science education to elementary students in San Juan County, UT. In addition to her work as a park ranger at Canyonlands, she has worked with the US Geological Survey on their ongoing biological soil crust study, as a sea kayaking guide in Washington, and as an environmental educator in the Bay Area. In terms of her future plans, she will begin a Masters program in Developmental Clinical Psycology at Columbia University. She says, "my interest and work in the field of environmental education has evolved. As a clinical psychologist, I want to be an ally for children as they play and learn in physically and emotionally stimulating and challenging environments."

Woodbine: Off-the-turf Highlander downgraded to Grade 3
ETOBICOKE, Ontario – The Highlander Stakes, which was run last Sunday at Woodbine, has been downgraded from Grade 2 to Grade 3 status after a downpour just prior to the race led to its being moved from turf to the main track in the interests of safety.
When conditions lead to a surface change for a graded race following the close of nominations, the race is automatically downgraded by one level for that running only.
On Wednesday, the Jockey Club of Canada's Graded Stakes Committee examined the speed figures of all the entrants from several sources, including Beyer Speed Figures, and reviewed the past performances of the entrants while comparing them with data from previous runnings.
The committee determined that the quality of the Highlander was affected by the change of surface, and therefore the Highlander Stakes would remain a Grade 3 in 2013.
The Highlander had been upgraded from Grade 3 to Grade 2 in 2010.
The Jockey Club of Canada established its own graded stakes committee in 1999, breaking away from the North American program with the proviso that it would continue to follow the general principals of its U.S. counterpart in order for the gradings to be recognized internationally.

- Bt Omega view? Review by Charlie (Posted on 14/10/2011)
Q: If I have a Bt Omega with a picatinny rail and this sight, will the hopper get in the way? If so, what will I need to prevent this?
A: The hopper will slighty block the top right, the only solution to really clear the line of sight is to use a Rip Clip, but you can still easily use a red dot sight with a normal hopper.
- ANDY IS A LEGEND!!! Review by Simon NI (Posted on 06/10/2011)
I phoned up to make a few enquiries about ordering a red dot sight - something cheap and cheerful.... well, after spending a few minutes on the phone with Andy, I had sold my children and remortgaged the house and spent a fortune.....
A few days later (after ordering an inferior item from another site...) I phoned Andy again to get some advice and this time sold my wife into slavery and remortgaged my parents house and spent the GDP of a small African nation!
On a serious note.... I have yet to use everything that I bought (bring on Sunday), but the advice, speed of delivery and quality of everything I have received is SUPERB!
We are a small club in Northern Ireland (at an undisclosed location - still classified as "Top Secret") and are now all sold on the quality of everything from Just Paintball....
They always ring you back when they say they will, offer top advice and all done with an obvious smile!
Thanks again Andy - I'm sure I'll be in touch soon for an M-16 Magazine cover (any deals always appreciated!)
Simon in NI

Q: will this fit a bt combat not a bt4 combat ?
A: It's the same. BT-4 Combat and BT Combat are the same marker.

UNH sophomore linebacker Matt Evans (Hanover, Mass.) was the 25th recipient of the prestigious Bill Knight Trophy as the game's MVP after recording a game-high 13 tackles, notching his first career interception and forcing a fumble for the Wildcats (5-3, 3-2).
Sophomore running back Dontra Peters (Annapolis, Md.) gained 98 yards on 23 carries, scoring a pair of rushing touchdowns, and senior quarterback R.J. Toman (Mission Viejo, Calif.) ran for two scores and threw for another. Toman was 14 of 26 for 176 yards and a touchdown.
New Hampshire, the designated home team at the home of the New England Patriots, jumped out to a 29-0 lead over Massachusetts (4-3, 2-2) en route to its third straight win over a ranked league opponent and its 13th consecutive home victory.
The 'Cats capitalized on an early UMass turnover to take the lead with 6:10 remaining in the opening quarter. A 33-yard punt from senior Kyle Auffray (Cornwall, N.Y.) grazed the leg of a Massachusetts player, and junior cornerback Kyle Flemings (Forty Fort, Pa.; four tackles) alertly pounced on the loose ball at UMass's 14-yard line. Three plays later, Toman carried in from one yard out, and UNH converted the two-point conversion on a pass play from Kevin Decker (Armonk, N.Y.) to Chris Chandler (Wakefield, Mass.; two catches, 26 yards) for an 8-0 advantage.
UMass had one threat denied when Caleb Violette was wide right on a 45-yard field goal attempt with 12:17 to go in the first half. Later in the quarter, the Minutemen drove to the UNH 35-yard line, but a fumble from Jonathan Griffin was recovered by Brian McNally (Cornwall, N.Y.; two tackles, sack) at the 36. The Wildcats then went on a 12-play, 64-yard drive with Peters taking it in from three yards out and Mike MacArthur (North Hampton, N.H.) tacking on the extra point to make it 15-0 with 5:44 to go in the half.
UNH went on a systematic 10-play, 99-yard drive midway through the third quarter with Toman finishing it off with his second one-yard touchdown plunge of the game and third rushing score of the season, making the score 22-0. Toman went 3-for-4 on the drive, completing a 29-yard pass to senior Kevon Mason (Quincy, Mass.; two catches, 45 yards) and a 26-yard pass to Terrance Fox (Piscataway, N.J). Fox (three catches, 31 yards; 3 carries, 24 yards) made an additional grab for one yard and then set the stage for Toman's touchdown by taking a reverse 17 yards, down to the UMass 1.
That margin would balloon to 29-0 when Toman found Joey Orlando (Bethlehem, Pa.) in the deep right corner of the end zone for an 11-yard touchdown with 2:26 remaining in the third quarter. Peters accounted for 22 yards on four carries during the drive, and Orlando (four catches, 50 yards) preceded his fourth touchdown reception of the season with a nifty back-shoulder grab on a fourth-and-1 play, gaining 21 yards to the UMass 37.
Peters' second scoring run, a two-yarder with 7:42 to go in the game, staked UNH to a 36-6 lead. Dino Vasso (Crum Lynne, Pa.; six tackles) returned UMass's onsides kick 17 yards, giving the Wildcats a short field to work with at the Massachusetts 23. Sean Jellison (Amherst, N.H.; five rushes, 13 yards) ran twice for 10 yards; Decker (1-for-2, 11 yards; four rushes, 19 yards), in relief of Toman, hooked up with Mike Greene (Stonington, Conn.) for 11 yards before calling his own number and scampering 13 yards to the UMass 2. Peters concluded the drive with his second scoring run, a two-yarder with 7:42 in the game, staking UNH to a 36-6 lead.
A.J. Delago (Menands, N.Y.) provided the game's final points with an 18-yard field goal with 3:38 remaining. It was DeLago's second made field goal of the season and first attempt since a 22-yard make at Pittsburgh on Sept. 11.
UMass scored all 13 of its points in the fourth quarter. Rob Blanchflower recovered a fumble from Anthony Nelson, forced by Evans, in the end zone with 10:28 to go, and Julian Talley caught a 14-yard pass from Kyle Havens with 5:47 remaining. Havens went 32-of-55 for a career-high 450 yards, but was intercepted by Evans at the UNH 17 on the first play of the fourth quarter. Nelson made a game-high 11 catches for 190 yards in the loss.
The previous record crowd for a CAA game came Oct. 16, 2010, at Delaware Stadium, where the Blue Hens hosted Rhode Island.
UNH has a bye week before returning to action Saturday, Nov. 6, at Cowell Stadium against the College of William & Mary. For tickets, call 1-800-745-3000, visit the Whittemore Center Box Office weekdays 10 a.m.-5 p.m. or log on to www.unhwildcats.com.

Pretty Little Liars
Pretty Little Liars: Troian Bellisario on Toby's Reveal, Spencer's Devastation and Missing Keegan Allen: It Was "Heartbreaking and Sad For Us" — Exclusive
Wow. Are you still breathing after tonight's episode of Pretty Little Liars?
We knew Spencer (Troian Bellisario) would figure out Toby's (Keegan Allen) betrAyal in tonight's episode (Season 3, Episode 16: "Misery Loves Company"), but we didn't expect it to hurt this much.
But Spoby shippers aren't the only ones feeling the pain. In fact, if there's anyone who's more upset than us, it's series star Troian Bellisario, who recently told us, "To not have many scenes [with Keegan] anymore was heartbreaking and sad." Aww!
Troian spoke to Wetpaint Entertainment after she received a fab blowout at the Dove Color Care Salon in the TR Suites at Sundance this past weekend, and she dished out the dirty details on Spencer's devastation, Wren's (Julian Morris) return and the new guy Andrew (Brandon W. Jones).
Wait, is Troian a Spandrew shipper now? Read our interview below to find out!
Wetpaint Entertainment: Keegan recently dished he's going to miss the make-out scenes with you. What about you: Are you going to miss making out with shirtless Keegan?
Troian Bellisario: Who wouldn't miss that? Truthfully, I miss Keegan. To not have many scenes together anymore was heartbreaking and sad for us. He would call and text me in the middle of the night, going, "Miss you!"
How will Toby's big "A" reveal shakeup the Liars, specifically Spencer?
The only people that Spencer really has – because she has such a tumultuous history with her family – are the Liars and now Toby. He's the love of her life. And that ultimate betrayal to a young woman is devastating. You can expect a true change in her.
Is there any hope for Spoby fans?
Ah, if I told you that, it'd be giving away the fun part!
Well, we know Spencer is going to be totally heartbroken over Toby, but what's going on with her and Andrew? He and Spencer seem like a perfect match.
They do! It was actually so exciting for me because I'm such a huge fan of the books and Andrew is a major character in them. I'm very, very excited for the fans to see where the Andrew character goes – I have so much fun shooting with him. I think what's great about Toby is that he's so soulful and so great and he and Spencer are so great together, but with Andrew, he has this witty repartee with Spencer and she can't help but flirt back when someone engages her intellect.
And then there's Wren! Can we expect Wren to be a shoulder for Spencer to cry on now that she knows the truth about Toby? Can we even trust Wren? He seems super sketchy...
I know! Can we trust Wren? There's a whole new side to Wren that we're not really aware of. The cool thing about this set of episodes – or whenever Toby leaves the picture or gets in trouble – Wren always manages to swoop back into Spencer's life. So I think you can definitely expect some drama.
What do you think, PLL fans? Do you want to see Spencer move on with Andrew? Do you trust Wren? Sound off in the comments!
Catch Pretty Little Liars on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC Family.

Your circumstances seemed to have changed since your first post. Its obvious that since then you have followed the ANY Wii guide. What are your issues now?
It's the last post on the first page of this thread, but basically i did indeed softmod the wii successfully with the guide you linked however wii originals and backups are not loading, neither are gamecube backups but gamecube originals load fine.
What does it say when they don't load?
Have you updated your loader to the latest revisions?
If I'm running off the disc loader it either gives me a black screen informing me of a error and telling me to eject the disc, or it just gives me the little question mark with disc read error. If i'm loading off neogamma with gamecube backups it says "DVD+R/bad burn/DL Problem?", wii backups state the same, and wii originals say the same as well, however gamecube originals load with no problem whatsoever, and this gamecube original game i'm using is in VERY poor condition, scratched to hell.
Edit: By loader did you mean neogamma?
I meant USB loader's, but you should update to the latest Neogamma R9 beta52
and see if that works.
DVD+R's are not recommended. DVD-R's are the way to go.
I updated neogamma but it's still the same, and one of the errors is "No drive connected" although this only seems to occur when loading one gamecube backup. And I am using DVD-Rs it's strange that the error says +R
I'm leaning towards that your DVD drive is is on it's last legs.
Two years of playing from backup disc's, put great strain on
the drive. You'll probably need to replace it.

What is Belvaspata?
Belvaspata, healing of the heart, is a sacred modality that heals with light and frequency. This healing method is a gift from the creator Goddess to the cosmic races to accommodate the changing laws of physics that tookplace as all life ascended into a new creation in August 2006. The use of Belvaspata heals as the frequencies of the sacred sigils are drawn to where they are most needed.
Belvaspata, the healing modality for the new frequencies within the cosmos, takes into consideration changes that occurred in August 2006, altering the laws governing all existence.
The most basic assumptions on which healers of all modalities have based their methods, changed overnight. In the past, opposite energies attracted and healing energy gravitated towards diseased energies. Now, they reject each other. Healers can now utilize light and frequency to dispel the illusion of disease, since under the changed cosmic laws, their opposite aspects attract.
Belvaspata, in the language of the Mother Goddess, means 'healing of the heart'. Whereas the primary purpose of previous cycles of existence was to seek perception (which is mind-oriented), the one we have entered has a different purpose. This creation challenges us to fulfill one primary purpose: to create through the heart. The body of knowledge, which is Belvaspata, is a gift from the Mother/Infinite Being that we may fulfill the new purpose of life. It is here to help us create health, joy and happiness through the heart.
Research on Belvaspata
In Russia a system has been developed to scientifically study spiritual healing, Gas Discharge Visualization (GDV). A study was initiated by Dr Sabita DeVita, in the presence of the healer, Almine, to ascertain visible and scientific measures of changes on the biological systems of a small group of subjects using GDV Bioelectrography camera. You can view the study then download these showing the differences before and after a 12 minute BVP session by Almine.

What is required to become initiated into Belvaspata?
Initiation into Belvaspata is required to become a practitioner of this sacred healing modality. Initiation into BVP can done either through self initiation after fulfilling the requirements with the guidance of a Master or Grand Master in Belvaspata. Or you can be initiated directly by a Master or Grand Master. Rain on the Earth is a Grand Master.
Rain on the Earth was called by the Mother Goddess to be the Liaison for Indigenous People to bring them the gift of Belvaspata. Rain is working with the Sisterhood of Planetary Water Rites, the Bear Clan of Medicine Creek Metis and the Sacred White Buffalo on this task. She is available to do presentations and initiations for key people within the Indigenous communities worldwide. Her contact is email@example.com
The Medicine Talk Radio
Rain on the Earth, is the producer and host of the internet radio show... "Medicine Talk"

S.A. Life column will focus on aging, health
By Jessica Belasco : March 25, 2012 : Updated: March 25, 2012 10:00am
Photo By William Luther/San Antonio Express-NewsSteven Austad, Professor & Interim Director, Barshop Institute for Longevity & Aging Studies, Dept. of Cellular & Structural Biology, University of Texas Health Science Center San Antonio, is seen in a Wednesday March 21, 2012 photo at his lab.

Steven Austad, Professor & Interim Director, Barshop Institute for Longevity & Aging Studies, Dept. of Cellular & Structural Biology, University of Texas Health Science Center San Antonio, poses Wednesday March 21, 2012 with some of the clams he studies. Austad will begin writing a biweekly column about aging March 25. (William firstname.lastname@example.com)
Long before Steven Austad became a respected scholar in aging research, he wrangled lions, tigers, cougars and the occasional bear and elephant for the Hollywood film industry.
As a professor and interim director of the Barshop Institute for Longevity and Aging Studies at the UT Health Science Center at San Antonio, he also works with animals — this time, studying a wide range of species to discover how they age.
Besides the usual lab rats and mice, his research subjects include clams that live up to 500 years.
"There are hearts out there that have been beating since before Shakespeare was born," says Austad, 65. "We're hoping that by studying some of these animals that have been so successful at resisting aging, we'll figure out ways to help humans stay healthy longer as well."
Austad joins S.A. Life today as a columnist writing about aging. His columns will appear every other Sunday.
Seventy-five percent of how well we age has to do with our lifestyle habits, not our genes, according to Austad.
"So you're really in control of your health destiny," he says.
While researchers are close to having effective medications for aging, he says, "at this point we can't tell you more than what your mother probably did," Austad says, "which is all things in moderation, stay active mentally and physically and avoid bad habits, such as smoking, such as eating too much and drinking too much."
His column will address ways in which people can affect their health destiny, but also will inform his audience about "this wonderfully interesting and complex process of aging that not just people but everything undergoes," he says.
Austad earned bachelor's degrees in English literature from UCLA and biology from California State, Northridge. His Ph.D. in biology is from Purdue University.
He originally trained as a field biologist and dreamed of studying wild lions in East Africa. He grew interested in the biology of aging when he discovered that opossums live a very short time — no longer than mice.
Austad became involved in aging research as a professor at Harvard University. He also was on the faculty at the University of Idaho and moved to Texas in 2004.
An award-winning researcher, he has published more than 100 scientific papers, edited three technical books on aging and written two books, including "Why We Age: What Science Is Discovering about the Body's Journey Through Life." He's currently writing a third book.
He also has written for several magazines, including National Geographic and Scientific American, and formerly sat on the scientific advisory board of National Public Radio.

Marin joined the Blues in a £7million move from Werder Bremen in the summer but has yet to see Premier League action this season.
The 23-year-old may look to move in order to kickstart his international career with Germany and Gladbach coach Lucien Favre could be willing to offer Marin a route out of Stamford Bridge.
"A player like Marin could be a good fit for us," said Favre, quoted in the Sunday Mirror.
"We will have to see what happens in the winter break but we have got nine games to go until then, so I don't want to say more."
Marin started his career at Gladbach and won his first Germany cap as a teenager there before moving to Bremen in 2009.

Bahri Bar
Attractive bar with chilled out al fresco seating 8 Reviews
Ladies' nights
Two free glasses of bubbles at Bahrilicious Timings: 8pm-11pm (Tuesday)

Although it remains one of Madinat Jumeirah's least celebrated bars, Bahri Bar is undoubtedly one of its best.
A stunningly attractive wraparound terrace provides perfect views of the Burj — best seen during its chameleon-like light show at night — and overlooks a fine stretch of sea and sand.
As such it's the perfect place for a sundowner, while a light-bite menu lists some tantalising treats. Blissful.

sorry about the pictures i had to make them on power point cos i had allready made my whip and couldnt take it apart.
do NOT attack any one with this instructable, any injury caused by this instructable is NOT my fault and i will not take responsability for it.i made a holder for my whip if you want me to post an instructable on how to make one message me.
Step 1: Main body
sos again about the pictures.
Step 2: Handle
Step 3: Handle again
Step 4: Making the whips outer body
Step 5: Cracker
sewing the cracker is a good idea because after a while it will start to fall out of the whip.
oh and you should also pleat the peices of wool together and then knot it at the end, cutit off so that there is about 2 centimetres after the knot. after the cracker is sewn onto the end of the whip wrap gaffa tape around the tip of the whip so that there is no rope showing.
i saw in a MAKE magazine they had a bull whip but the leather for it is 3 times the price of buying one on ebay
nice ible

The roles have been reversed in Rovio's upcoming mobile game set to launch later this month. That's right; this time around it's those evil pigs that are taking center stage in a new game called "Bad Piggies", a spinoff of the popular Angry Birds franchise.
Rovio hasn't released a ton of information on the game just yet but we do know that this will be a completely new type of game play. There aren't any Angry Birds to be found nor are there any slingshots in sight, the company says. Simply put, we'll get to see the pigs' side of the story.
"We've had a lot of fun creating a totally new and unique gameplay experience," said Petri Järvilehto, EVP Games at Rovio. "There's so much more to these pigs than what is seen in the Angry Birds games, and Bad Piggies is the first glimpse into what's going on in the imaginative and ingenious minds of the pigs."
Rovio made a name for itself with the popular Angry Birds franchise that first flew onto the scene in December 2009. The most recent installment, dubbed Angry Birds Space, was downloaded more than 10 million times in just three days en route to becoming the fastest-growing mobile game of all time. Bad Piggies will be the third major game launch for Rovio this year.
Look for the title to be released for Android, iOS and Mac on September 27. Rovio says versions for Windows Phone and Windows 8 will follow soon after. In the meantime, Rovio suggests checking out the Bad Piggies website for the latest news from the little green guys.

MoSync Comes Closer to "One Tool for All Mobile Platforms" by Adding Android Support
Swedish software company MoSync AB today announced support for Android devices in its cross-platform mobile development SDK.
The MoSync SDK is a fully featured software development kit designed to help mobile application developers create anything from simple programs for basic mobile phones to advanced applications that exploit the full potential of the latest intelligent smart phones and mobile devices.
The latest release of the MoSync SDK (version 2.3), which is now emerging from beta testing, provides support for Android 1.5 (Cupcake)-compatible mobile devices.
"We chose to concentrate on Cupcake first because then the apps will work on all the current Android devices out there," said lead developer Anders Malm. "Programs written for Cupcake will run seamlessly on devices running Android 1.6 (Donut) and 2.0/2.1 (Eclair). Full support for Éclair will follow soon"
With the addition of Android, MoSync's range of supported platforms continues to grow impressively. The range also includes Symbian, J2ME, Windows Mobile, Moblin (soon MeeGo), Pocket PC, and Smartphone 2003. MoSync AB will showcase MoSync 2.3 at the International CTIA WIRELESS® Show on March 23-25, 2010 at the Las Vegas Convention Center and on CommunicAsia 2010 in Singapore on June 15-18.
"We believe that MoSync is genuinely changing the way software is produced and used in the mobile world. It just doesn't make sense to have different development tools for different platforms like Android, Java, Symbian, Window Mobile – the cost of porting is simply too high," said MoSync co-founder Henrik von Schoultz.
MySQL founder David Axmark, one of the principle investors in MoSync AB, says, "Everyone can see the explosion of new devices with a multitude of features on the market. We invested in MoSync because we saw a need for tools suitable for developing across various platforms. It is high time that someone simplified developing for many devices. Making the tools open source using a dual-licensing approach will allow everyone to use them."
MoSync makes any mobile application reachable for billions of people around the world. MoSync is a state-of-the-art technology that enables developers to publish any mobile application to a broad range of devices and platforms. MoSync builds cross-platform applications that run flawless on hundreds of mobile phones and handhelds, and is proven to radically cut development cost and time-to-market. MoSync is easy, fast, and cost-efficient – mobile development made easy. Please learn more at www.mosync.com.
The company is located in Stockholm, Sweden, and has representation in Singapore.

Latest Puerto Rico Lifestyle Magazine Articles
Understanding the Politics of Puerto Rico
- Politics are everything in Puerto Rico. First off, even in the last election 70% of the voting-age population cast a vote, which is significantly higher than the statistics for the U.S. Politics are constantly discussed on the streets, on the radio, in the newspaper, everywhere. It can be a little overwhelming if you're not really interested. The only comparison I can think of is how Americans talk about football during football season. It's really, really big.
Confusing Latin American Geographies
- So, this isn't so relevant, I think, but it is kind of humorous. Watching some Italian singing contest show (we get Rai here... I know, I know, it's no good but it's the only thing we have in Italian and, like a surprising number of Puerto Ricans, my friend studies Italian, so we have it on frequently), they have on some Argentine... I think footballer player?
Tourist Assaulted in Puerto Rico by Rogue Wall
- On a pretty normal day, a day not unlike today, I expressed midway through a movie-film that it was time for me to take my leave and empty my teeniest, tiniest
against the best chronological conveniences of those around me. Mind you, we've had all kinds of problems with movie theaters in Puerto Rico, but none compared in my mind to the assault I suffered unto the face upon merely not paying attention to where I was walking.
The Best Beaches of Puerto Rico
- Being an island, there are, of course, lots of beaches in Puerto Rico. Quality varies, but the geographical location is the greatest determining factor. North and east-side beaches touch the Atlantic. Most of these beaches are decent, but in general are nothing particularly special.
Spiderman Collectible Trumps Other Tourist Glory
- If there's one thing I love more than anything, it's a "thing". Can't tell you what it is, but it's probably something, and something I really, really love. What I can tell you is what I
more than that, and it's another thing. Not just "another thing" but
other thing, which is the joy of a random toy, regardless of where it is. This article is in edification of that random, second thing.
Speaking like a Boricua
- This post is one of the most important ones, whether you're looking to work, live or just visit Puerto Rico. You have to know how to speak like a Boricua. Well, you don't
to, but it can really help.
A Super Short History of Puerto Rico, Part-1
- All right, this is going to be Puerto Rican history in a nutshell. Before Christopher Colombus arrived in Puerto Rico in 1493, the island, like much of the Caribbean, was populated by Taíno Indians. The Taínos became slaves for the Spaniards and were practically exterminated... there are a few different opinions to whether the Taíno is "extinct", I wrote a paper on this in Spanish so I'll be sure to upload that eventually. Anyways, in response to a lack of workers the slave trade was born. Other than this, Spain more or less ignored the island. It was attacked by the English, Dutch, and French for years and it was a popular place for pirates, notably Puerto Rico's own Cofresí.
A Super Short History of Puerto Rico, Part-2
- So, the Spanish-American War ends after the U.S. blockades Puerto Rico for long enough that the people were very welcoming to the American troops. It doesn't help that they were promised the liberty that the Spaniards didn't give to them. Of course, as you might have noticed, that's not really what they got.

For the past few days I've been in London, where I was presenting a paper at the Counter Terror Expo. I had the privilege to sit-in on other talks far more interesting than mine revolving around British preparations for the Summer Olympics; strategies to counteract terrorist charities; and very practical tactical approaches to the counter terror fight.
A few items jumped out at me during the course of the two-day conference which I simply had not known or previously thought about at length. For example, while American counter terror officials will confront terrorist charities and shut them down, the British believe (naively, in my view) that they can excise the terror influence yet preserve the charity. Likewise, while the U.S. Treasury Department is expert at tracking U.S. dollar transactions in order to deny terrorists funding, I had never fully considered the problem of laundering such transactions via the Mexican Peso, an increasing problem especially given the interplay between terrorists and drug gangs and the prevalence of informal Peso transactions in the American southwest.
Perhaps the most important fact I learned was that British security officials believe that their pact with the Irish Republican Army (IRA) may be unraveling. British intelligence and counter terror officials are now tracking and interrupting more IRA terror planning that at any time since before the 1998 Good Friday Agreement. The problem is not simply IRA dissidents, as some reports suggest, but mainstream IRA upset that their goals are not being fully met through the political process. The reason why the collapse of the IRA model is so important is because it has increasingly been the key justification for negotiation with terrorists. When former Sen. George Mitchell took over as President Obama's Middle East envoy, he repeatedly justified Obama administration actions with the IRA analogy. "In a sense, in Northern Ireland, we had about 700 days of failure and one day of success," Mitchell remarked in 2010. The Washington Post's Jackson Diehl noted that there was seldom a press conference in which Mitchell did not make reference to the Northern Ireland peace process as a model and inspiration. German diplomats have also cited the IRA model to justify their engagement with Hezbollah, and British and American diplomats have cited the Northern Ireland process to justify negotiation with the Taliban.
The analogy has always been faulty. The IRA never had a Pakistan or Iran to support it, nor was it committed to wiping Great Britain from the map. The IRA may have been noxious, but its basic platform did not seek to deny women schooling. Still, if the British could bite their lower lip, talk to terrorist enemies, and strike a deal, why couldn't other Europeans or Americans?
With the IRA's resurgence, hopefully the arguments for engaging and appeasing terrorists can be put to rest. The Northern Ireland process rewarded IRA violence and may have brought some quiet. But just as terrorist leaders like Muammar Qaddafi never change their stripes no matter how much money they donate to British universities or how they enrich Western diplomats, terrorist groups never fully embrace rule-of-law and the democratic process. Rather, they abide by the philosophy so elegantly stated by Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan: 'Democracy is like a streetcar. You ride it as far as you need, and then you get off.' It's time Western policymakers deny them entry in the first place, rather than fall all over themselves to provide free tickets.

Welcome to rudy.ca, eh
Rudy Limeback's personal site
Today is Doomsday!
February 28, 2015
Today, the last day of February, is a Saturday. The last day of February is also known as "Doomsday" but more on that in a moment.
Since the last day of February this year is a Saturday, this means that:
4/4, 6/6, 8/8, 10/10, and 12/12, i.e. April 4, June 6, August 8, October 10, and December 12, are all Saturday this year
"I work 9-5 at the 7-11" so 9/5, 5/9, 7/11, and 11/7, i.e. September 5, May 9, July 11, and November 7, are also Saturday this year
since 2015 is not a leap year, so January 3rd was a Saturday
July 4, for all eleven of my American readers (down two from last year -- you know who you are, and thanks again for visiting my site), is a Saturday
July 1, Canada Day, is three days earlier, on Wednesday
September 5 is a Saturday, and 2 days later is Monday the 7th; a week earlier would be in August, so Labour Day is Monday, September 7th this year
October 10 is a Saturday, so 2 days later is Monday the 12th, which has to be the second Monday in the month, so Canada's Thanksgiving Day, also Columbus Day in the US, is Monday, October 12th
Since December 12 is a Saturday, then so is December 26, so Christmas Eve this year is on Thursday, as is New Year's Eve a week later.
Visit the Doomsday Algorithm page to find out why it's called "doomsday" and to get complete details of how to do the Doomsday calculation for the day of the week for any date -- in your head!
