Lieutenant Karla Taulbee is leaving her job as commander of the Portsmouth Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol to lead the Jackson District Criminal Patrol Unit. The Portsmouth Post is part of the Jackson District.
"My responsibility is going to cover a wider area, the whole district," Taulbee said. "I'm looking forward to working with all the people, and I will be learning more things, supervising the Canine Division, so working with the dogs is going to be new, with the training and all that goes into that."
Taulbee is not new to investigative work.
"So I will be just getting back into that, doing the plain clothes investigations," Taulbee said. "As always, I want to get the drugs off the street. And I think what I have learned from the troopers here from my experience, and I want to spread that experience throughout the district. I just want to get the current patrol section really going strong."
Taulbee said, being Portsmouth Post Commander has been a positive experience.
"It has been a big learning experience and it has been just wonderful," Taulbee said. "This is just a hopping post, it is really busy and I have learned a lot. The people I work with here are wonderful. I think it was more beneficial for me coming here as a sergeant. I know all the troopers and the dispatchers; the support staff, plus the other agencies in the community, as well as ODOT, and the County Engineer. Add to that, the Portsmouth and New Boston Police Departments, the Scioto County Sheriff's Office and the courts. So I had those connections already when I came here. That made it a lot easier for me."
The Post is getting a new commander next week. Lt. Michael R. Gore will transfer from his most recent assignment at the Ironton Post to take command of the Portsmouth Post on March 24.
Gore began his Patrol career in 1986 as cadet dispatcher at the Jackson Post. Less than a year later he began training as a member of the 116th Academy Class. He earned his commission in September 1987 and was assigned to the Ironton Post, where he was selected as Post Trooper of the Year 1996.
In 1997, he was promoted to the rank of sergeant and transferred to the Jackson Post to serve as an assistant post commander. In 1999, he transferred back to the Ironton Post. In 2005, he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant and took command of the Ironton Post. Gore completed training at Northwestern University's School of Police Staff and Command in 2007.
"I hate leaving, but this is going to be a new challenge for me," Taulbee said. "I learned a whole lot for myself and the division, including patience. When Lt. (Mike) Crispen was here, he taught me I had to learn patience. That has been invaluable."

Featured Retailer: Ishta Yoga
The ISHTA mission is to blend the ancient and contemporary yoga teachings of Hatha, Tantra and Ayurveda into a system that caters to our individual students' needs. Whether you are looking for physical strength or greater peace of mind, we provide you with a tailored practice to enhance your health and well-being. Yoga has many benefits and at ISHTA, you will not miss out on any of them!
The ISHTA Style
ISHTA Yoga is the home of South African Tantric Yoga Master Alan Finger's unique system of yoga. At ISHTA we strive to bring you to the Tantric state of balance. Our style encourages contentment and calm through the melding of breath, flow, strength building, alignment and meditation. We seek to offer every type of student a truly well rounded yet specific practice. Get a total body workout in our Core Flow class; learn to re-center the mind and breath in meditation classes run by Alan himself; or combine both physical and meditative practices in our range of beginner, intermediate, and advanced flow classes. Whatever you choose, you will find yourself feeling better every day.
What is ISHTA?
Our name itself embodies our multi-dimensional approach. ISHTA stands for Integrated Science of Hatha, Tantra, and Ayurveda, or a combination of physical, energetic, and healing practices. But ISHTA has a double meaning that stretches back to the very roots of yoga. ISHTA is also a Sanskrit word translating to 'that which resonates with the individual spirit,' emphasizing the personal journey we encourage and guide our students to embrace.
Our Teachers
Alan Finger has trained ISHTA instructors around the world, from Australia to Germany to Africa, but only at ISHTA's headquarter studio in Manhattan can students of all levels work intimately with the Yoga Master himself and some of his most highly trained teachers. Our teachers bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to their teachings; through asana, pranayama, and meditation they guide a seamless practice that brings you physical strength and comfort, greater self-awareness, inner and outer equilibrium, and self-transformation. We pride ourselves on the expertise, personal attention and warmth our teachers provide.
How We Work with You
Our goal is to make your yoga practice convenient and accessible to you any time, anywhere. At ISHTA, we offer group classes as well as private lessons at the studio, in student's homes or at their office. We also offer Teacher Trainings to those looking for even greater enrichment. Our goal, no matter where we teach, is to address students' specific needs and imbalances by using asana to stretch, strengthen, balance, and release the physical body; pranayama and visualization to still and quiet the mind; and meditation to expand our awareness to the universal state of bliss.

Manduka Goes To Wanderlust Vermont!
So I just got back from Wanderlust Vermont (ENORMOUS thanks to Manduka for giving away tickets so I could have this opportunity) and am simply blown away by the power of this yoga community. Even articulating it may prove difficult.
Every class reverberated with synchronicity. I brought up the desire for more JOY, unconditional joy, and the next class was about joy. I was dwelling on purpose, and how to bring a vision to fruition and the next sequence of a class was about envisioning that purpose unfolding. A random dude came up to Kendra and me to ask if he could recite his poetry (these things happen at yoga festivals) and the entire poem was about a flower that has served as a metaphor for my whole life. Ok – that one doesn't sound so incredible but trust me – it was. It's the feeling of being in the right place at the right time, and then a long series of those moments. Reminds me of a Death Cab lyric I used to love, "a series of blurs," only this was exactly the opposite: a sequence of moments strung together by grace and in perfect clarity.
One practice on Friday led by Seane Corn – wow, she is powerful! – directed us toward being prayerful in our practice, prayerful toward our own needs, the needs of those in our immediate circle, and in the world at large. One instruction really hit me – it was to do that next sun salutation in honor of someone hurting, someone who doesn't realize the truth of who they are, their worth, their beauty, their radiance. As I worked my way through that saluation my brain was scanning hard to select a person to direct that energy – you are LOVED and worthy of LOVE – and I quickly was overcome with emotion.
There are SO so many of us in need of that message. My mind couldn't rest on just one person. Instead, a circle of people I know and love and to whom I want to deliver that message – all standing in a circle. And then another circle of people I don't know, or don't know well. Among them – folks in my immediate community: the ill, the hurting, the homeless, the victimized, kids in poverty, battered women, those living in shame with mental illness, the incarcerated, the damaged, those who are addicted, lost, abandoned, forgotten.
It sounds so small – maybe even trivial to some – but this is the practice of prayer and living prayerfully. Even in a single minute of yoga, envisioning this community in need of healing while moving your body has a remarkable effect – it imprints those images and emotions and longings to help deep into your muscles, your bones, your cells, your body - so that you remember it and can live each day with awareness and hope that healing can happen for all.
I'm under no illusion that yoga by itself will necessarily solve the problems of those on the fringes, whom yogaServe reaches out to. But I'm also aware of the power of self-worth and the tragedy of living in a culture where that concept is often foreign. This reminds me of a story where Westerners had gathered to listen to the Dalai Lama and one person raised his hand with a question: "How do you deal with self-hate?" The Dalai Lama asked him to clarify what he meant. Self hate? He literally didn't understand the question, the language, the pairing of the word "self" with "hate" because in his belief system and culture one's goodness is celebrated.
This brokenness – an inability to see your worth – is at the core of so much suffering. Certainly those who are victimized or otherwise at risk could benefit from a reminder of it, and a bit of self-care (in the form of yoga!). I don't believe I'm overstating the problem. Try reflecting on it for a moment – envisioning your own worth and affirming that you're worthy of love and peace and contentment and joy. Try saying it to a friend who is struggling. The odds are that it conjures immediate emotion. I've seen many friends and loved ones begin crying just at the mention of it because it runs so counter to the messages we hear each day – that we have to earn respect and love, that our status, our income, our health, our beauty, our jobs, etc. make us worthwhile to the world. Consciously we may think we know those things don't correlate with our worth but we've absorbed that message to the very core of our bodies sometimes. Yoga begins to unlock the truth.

# Practice Destiny
They say injuries are our greatest teachers. This is an idea I am trying my best to wrap my mind around as I am healing from one. As I stare forlorn at my mat rolled up in the corner, I remember how easy it is to confuse our true self with the physical form. Yoga is not just what we do on the mat with our bodies(though that isn't often discussed at parties or over tea). Although so much of the world is reinforcing the idea that we are just these bodies, we are more than what can be seen by the eyes. We are more than our thoughts about our bodies, our jobs, or our bank accounts. If I can just sit down for 10-15 minutes daily, breathe, focus and still, that is just as deep a practice as getting my ankle behind my head.
By mindfully changing my breath, I can change my thoughts. As my thoughts change, so do my actions. As my actions change, so does my destiny. Who knew? :)

# Practice Listening
I like to wake up early. The morning is such a sweet, peaceful time in my otherwise chaotic corner of Los Angeles. In these stolen moments I can hear the world outside my window, and am able to hear the nuances of life outside and inside of me. As these fragile sounds fall upon my outer ear I feel them within my heart. This got me to thinking, how often did we really listen? Not just to the sounds of nature, but even in conversations? Are we really listening or just waiting to speak? Holding our breath until a pause between words? In pauses, the grace of the wind speaks to us.. In listening, we can truly hear the heartfelt sharing of our loved ones, and be present in the moment.
My Manduka helps me #practicing listening. What does your Manduka help you #practice?
Here's how our amazing Manduka community is #practicing:

Dutch legacy aircraft support specialist Fokker Services has won a cabin upgrade contract for three Bombardier Dash 8-100s from an unnamed airline in the Asia Pacific region.
The Hoofddorp-based company will provide engineering services, supply new equipment and refurbish cabin linings at its site in the Netherlands. But all installation work will be done as part of regular heavy maintenance checks at the operator's own facilities.
The deal comprises replacement of the aircraft's fluorescent tube lighting with LED units; fitting better noise-insulation material; refurbishment of side panels, lavatory linings and luggage bins; and installation of photo-luminescent escape path markings.
Fokker says that the "passive" noise suppression kit will cut cabin noise levels by up to three 3dB, while the LED lighting should reduce weight and - due to the equipment's longer lifetime over light tubes - also maintenance costs.
The first aircraft is to be upgraded in mid-2013, with the other two to follow thereafter.

Punishment! You guys don't know the meaning of the word. Punishment is what the University of Michigan men's football team will be handing out this season to both Big Ten and non-conference opponents alike. The mouths of the critics will be silenced forever as Coach Rodriguez's charges rack up victory after victory on the fields of valor. September can't come soon enough.
I think I have you figured out. You are a Cal grad who is an admitted MSU fan frequenting a UM forum psycho-analyzing University of Michigan football fans researching their mental ascention and affinity for their team while overlooking your own obsessive-compulsive anti-RR and anti-UM behavior.
Let�s see what you have here point-by-point:
1. Getting the offer from UM and taking it back to WVA, only to get booted out of the president's house.
He took an offer from a prospective employer and showed it to his current employer in hopes of getting a better deal. It�s done every day in the business world. It�s called negotiating. Too bad WVU didn�t match the offer. Their loss.
2. Calling Terelle Pryor to tell him about his move before telling the WVA players.
He called a prospective recruit to let him know he would no longer be at WVU so Pryor could entertain other options. RR did not benefit from this because Pryor chose Ohio State. I call RR�s action a being considerate.
3. Trying to get out of the buyout clause of his WVA contract, and sticking UM for $2.5 million of the tab.
Contracts are broken every day in the business world when one party feels the other party is not living up to their end of their agreement. This was the case at WVU. And RR did not stick UM with the $2.5 mil tab the courts did. RR was also �stuck� with $1.5 mil. UM and RR both agreed to pay the judgment so what�s your beef?
4. Losing to Toledo when UM still was filled with with 3 and 4 star recruits.
Losing to Toledo in a transition year seems bad on the surface, but pales in comparison to Carr�s losing to D-1AA App St. with 3 and 4 star recruits. At least Toledo is a D-1 school.
5. Associating with a booster that has been banned from a university (Clemson).
So, what law did RR break? What has he been charged with? I rest my case.
6. Generally upsetting many UM players who were Lloyd Carr recruits. Sure, programs have attrition with a change in coaches, but how many have so many former players throwing the coach under the bus on the way out?
Justin Boren, who left to play with his younger brother at OSU cited eroding family values to mask his true intentions. Kurt Wermers, who was found to be academically ineligible citing eroding family values to hide his failure to be on the team. And finally, Ryan Mallett, who was quoted as saying, �This game was everything I expected it to be," Mallett said. "It has been my lifelong dream to come out and play as a Razorback,� after last week�s Arkansas 48-10 victory over Missouri State. http://www.arkansasrazorbacks.com/ViewArticle.dbml?SPSID=30726&SPID=2419&ATCLID=204788582&DB_OEM_ID=6100
�It's really odd how this is the first time I've seen you mention Central even though you're an alum. What's it like being a UM wannabe? You can't begin to imagine the distaste a UM grad or faculty member would have for someone who "only" went to Central. But please do continue to purchase UM clothing and other paraphernalia.�
I have mentioned many times that I matriculated at CMU. I am very proud of my degree. I have been a UM fan since high school before attending college. By your twisted logic one can only be a UM fan if one graduated from there. Does that mean the only people admitted to Big House on game day are the ones with their wallet-sized UM diploma on their person? Bo Schembechler didn�t graduate from UM yet he�s considered the epitome of a �Michigan Man�. He actually holds a bachelor�s degree from Miami of Ohio and a master�s degree from Ohio State. I guess I�m in pretty select company.
As for what it�s like being a UM wannabe, nobody knows better than you. MSU Spartan hanging out on a UM blog trying to hob-nob with the Wolverine set. And I do wear my UM gear with honor.
�The list of RR's foibles is too long to go into here. But I will mention the most recent: he essentially forces his players to practice longer and work out more.�
There you go again. More innuendos, insinuations and insults. Tell me how does �essentially� equate with player�s admissions that their comments were taken out of context? The accusation that RR �overworked� his players is the result of a fact-less, groundless witch hunt by over- zealous �journalists� with an obvious anti-RR agenda.
Since RR�s foibles are �too long to go into� please give us your top five.
This will be a great weekend to be a Wolverine!
I�m going on record as rooting for USC to totally annihilate the Buckeyes. I wouldn�t cheer for Ohio State if they were playing tiddlywinks, let alone college football.
This weekend I�m going for the trifecta: 1. a USC win over the Bucks; 2. a UM win over Notre Dame; and 3. a Central Michigan (my alma mater) upset of the MSU Spartans.
It doesn�t get any better than that.
I�m all in 4 Michigan!
Out of curiosity I decided to check out the Arkansas Razorback web site to see how Ryan Mallett did on the opening game of the season. They beat Missouri State 48-10. In a post game interview he was quoted as saying, �This game was everything I expected it to be," Mallett said. "It has been my lifelong dream to come out and play as a Razorback.�
So much for RR running off players.
Yes, there was a Spartan fan who said WMU would win. To which I reminded him that MSU will be playing WMU on Nov. 7, 2009. Could there be an upset brewing?
Where are those Spartan fans that predicted Western's win over UM?
I've forgotten last year's record already. The only way I'll remember it is if Metric reminds me again.
It's a great day to be a Wolverine!
I'm all in 4 Michigan.
Sheridan picked up where he left off last season. His positive contribution was when he was on the sideline sending in dummy signals. He looked right at home wearing headphones.
Look for Mike Shaw to have a breakout year.
Go Blue!

Thank God I�m a Mountaineer!
(To the tune of John Denver�s, �Thank God I�m A Country Boy!�)
Well life in the hills is really kinda whacked,
Livin� in a RV parked by a shack,
My teams are a-losing but I�m still talkin� smack
Thank God I�m a Mountaineer!
On the way to the game I stop by the still,
Me and my buddy�s we all have a swill,
We don�t get rowdy �cause we take a chill pill,
Thank God I�m a Mountaineer!
With a coonskin cap and a season ticket,
When Maw cooks a meal the pot I lick it,
A slap on the knee and a Jiminy Cricket,
Thank God I�m a Mountaineer!
Well Coach Beilein he headed up north,
Leavin� RR to hold down the fort,
But he left too now we�re all out of sorts,
Thank God I�m a Mountaineer!
Well I got me a musket and I got dry powder,
My teams are bad but I couldn�t be prouder,
And when they�re a-losin� I�ll cheer a little louder,
Thank God I�m a Mountaineer!
Well Huggins and Stewart are doin� their best,
Here�s hoping their teams are up to the test,
But Michigan�s champions, leaders and best,
Too bad you�re a Mountaineer!

Correction: RR never lost to App St. Carr did.
Stick it!
A football program that was in shambles?�
Yes. Everybody wants to rag on RR for losing to Toledo, while at the same time forgetting about the loss to App St. That loss was the loss heard around the college football world. It was the tip of the iceberg indicating much deeper problems. It was Carr�s underachievement crown of glory. Coming at the heels of an embarrassing loss to USC Carr should have had his team primed and ready to go. But, no, we had to suffer an even more embarrassing loss to D-1AA school. If Carr had it going so good then why is he no longer here?
�11-2 then 9-4 with their last game being a bowl win over Fla.�
I contend that UM won that game in spite of Carr and not because of him.
�Congrats dude you have just made the most ingnorant post on here that I have ever seen.�
If you think my posts are ignorant try reading some of your own.
�You have no credibility with making absurd comments like that.�
Spoken like a true wussWolverine.
�I am a longtime Michigan football fan (over 60 years) and did believe that Michigan needed a new coach to take us to the next level after Carr.�
We are in agreement so far.
�But now I have to say I think RR needs to go. I do not understand all the support for him.�
Barring proven NCAA violations or conviction resulting from criminal activities I see no reason for him not to have our support.
�What has he done for/to Michigan football so far?�
Oh, let�s see. He�s accepted the job of putting together a football program that was in shambles and is working very hard to bring it back into national prominence. And he has a proven track record of building competitive programs.
�Involved us in three scandals in a little over a year, the latest two of which are going on now.�
Accusations, innuendo, insinuations and negative criticism hardly constitute a scandal.
�(If everyone practices longer than NCAA rules allow, why is RR the only one to get ratted on by his players?)�
Players that have come out on record as saying their comments were taken out of context. What part of taken out of context do you not understand?
�Created team discord as evidenced by players leaving and ratting on RR.�
A head coaching change is very often accompanied by player defections especially when the new coach brings with him a new system. Boren left because he wanted to play at OSU with his little brother. Wermers gripped because he was academically ineligible. Both used a lack of �family values� as a smokescreen to mask their true intentions. Mallet left because he�s not a spread QB and did not see himself fitting into RR�s system.
�Way underperformed his first year as coach��
Underperformed? The team he inherited was gutted by graduations, transfers and early defections to the NFL. The talent and experience levels of players like Henne, Hart, Long, Arrington and Manningham can�t be replaced overnight. Even Vince Lombardi himself couldn�t have done better than RR.
�� losing to Toledo was completely inexcusable.�
If losing to Toledo was completely inexcusable then what was losing to Appalachian State? Earth shattering? Catastrophic? Mind blowing? Keep in mind that UM lost with Henne, Hart, Long, Arrington and Manningham under Carr.
�Created a hyped but ineffective conditioning program - we got clobbered in the second half last year.�
Rome wasn�t built in a day. Results of a strength and conditioning program aren�t instantaneous, but show up on a gradual basis. The effects should show up exponentially this season.
�I can see an argument being made to see if he can win this year, but I personally don't think he should be given that chance.�
Why? When it takes three years to honestly evaluate a coach after he has implemented his system and recruited his players to execute it.
�Recruiting damage has already been done and needs to be remedied fast.�
Landing highly rated dual-threat QBs like Tate Forcier, Denard Robinson and 2010 recruit Devin Gardner is more of a recruiting coup than �recruiting damage� especially for a 3-9 team. Everyone knows that the QB position was woefully inadequate last year and RR has remedied that situation as well as other positions.
�And if there's no crying if baseball, there for sure is no crying in football.�
Except in Big Ten and BCS National Championship celebrations. Both of which are in UM�s foreseeable future. They�re called tears of joy. The pendulum has already begun swinging in that direction.
�Has anyone ever seen a football coach from a major college cry like this moron.�
After the amount of personal and professional attacks this man has suffered I completely understand his display of emotion. He�s been called a liar, a man of no integrity and a man of no character by jilted WVU fans. He�s been described as a man lacking family values by disgruntled players. Lambasted by those who felt he was a bad hire from the beginning. Now, he�s accused of over-working his team by �reporters� with an axe to grind. Through it all he�s carried himself with grace, class and poise, but his public tears are only drowned out by the baseless, whining criticisms of the trolls, wuss Wolverine fans and those who have a vendetta against him since his hiring. There are those who have him doomed to failure before he has a chance to prove himself.
I hope this makes him better and not bitter. I hope he and his team develop an �us against the world� mentality and starts kicking butt this Saturday and do their talking on the field.
You have one glaring omission to Carr�s coaching record:
2007 Michigan vs. Appalachian State L 34-32
The first time a Top Ten D-1 school ever lost to a D-1AA school. This speaks volumes about the direction Lloyd had this program headed.
Nice post. A breath of fresh air amid tons of anti-RR rhetorical garbage.
�If UM makes that field goal against Appy State the recent history and outlook would be much different for UM football.�
Yes, we would be in for another three loss season; another loss to Ohio State and another bowl loss. And all would be right with the world.
With fans like lemansblue who needs Buckeyes? I certainly appreciate UM fans who understand it was time for a change. Fans who understand transition and what a rebuilding process entails. Good things come to those who wait. Not to worry though, I�m keeping the troll list up-to-date and accurate so when the know-it-alls say they knew RR would be successful all along try to come back into the fold they won�t be welcomed with open arms.
�Carr did try to name a successor, he wanted English or DeBord to get the job but Martin wanted to make a big splash with Miles, than Schiano and finally RR.�
Carr is no longer here because of consistently losing approx. four games a year. If Martin or DeBoard had been hired we would have had more of the same. Offenses that went conservative once they got the lead. Trying to run out the clock instead of playing against their opponent. Employing a �prevent defense� which allows the opponent to nickel-and-dime their way down the field and comeback to win. We�ve seen enough of Carr and his brain trust. Honest evaluations of Martin�s decision cannot be done until after RR�s third season. Trolls and half-hearted UM fans are suffering from a malaise known as �premature evaluation� for which there is no known cure.
�RR is a one trick poney, he doesnt know any other system but his own. he coaches with blinders on and didnt even think of changing the offence to suit his players.�
Wow! Is that you collstatman impersonation? Good one. The way I see it RR had two options; he could have tried to use Carr�s leftovers and try to field a competitive team or he could put in his offense with the lack of talent he inhe3rit4e2d and begin to build on it this yea3rs with the players he recruited. I agree with his choice. Vince Lombardi himself could not have coached that team to a winning record.
�I think RR and Michigan are a great pair. I hope RR stays in ann arbor as long as Joe Pa has been in Happy Valley.�
Or as long as John Cooper was at OSU?

The popularity of smokeless cigarettes has reached a point where it is evident that the smoke-free nicotine delivery systems are here to stay. However, it does not mean that the controversies and arguments about the devices have stopped—new arguments are popping up frequently. The most recent controversy involves vaping on airplanes; however, the argument being made may not be the one you assume it is.
When smokeless cigarettes hit the market, there was some concern over whether a cabin full of people would suffer ill health effects from 'second-hand vape'. The argument now has turned to concerns over fire safety. Last month, there was an incident where a small fire started after a passenger packed his smokeless cigarette in his checked luggage at Logan International Airport in Boston. This has prompted airport officials to ask federal officials to reclassify e-cigs as hazardous.
The Events
Passengers on a JetBlue flight to Buffalo, New York were evacuated from the aircraft when baggage handlers smelled smoke. A smoldering bag was removed from the baggage hold and extinguished. Luckily, the flight hadn't actually taken off or the events could have been very different. After examining the remnants of the bag, the culprit seems to have been a smokeless cigarette—or more specifically, the device's lithium-ion battery.
Lithium-ion batteries, which are found in everything from laptops to cell phones, have long been linked to being capable of catching fire. While the Massachusetts Port Authority may blame the smokeless cigarette for the incident, any lithium-ion battery that is activated inside a packed suitcase could easily overheat and catch fire. The incident has led many to suggest that smokeless cigarettes should be banned from airplanes; however, the better course of action would be to insist that e-cig components be disassembled packing in checked luggage.
TSA Guidelines for Flying with Smokeless cigarettes and E-liquid
The TSA doesn't currently have restrictions on e-liquid, or e-cig products—this includes batteries, cartridges, and charging devices. However, any separate liquids will fall under the 3-1-1 carry-on rule.
While it is highly unlikely you'll have any difficulties with the TSA concerning your smokeless cigarettes (and components), to be more precautionary, don't declare them for inspection at the checkpoint. If an issue arises, explain that it's your smokeless cigarette.
Further recommendations include:
- Pack your batteries and charger in your laptop case or with your other electronics

Wildlife Viewing Tips for Your Adventure Tours!
- 942 days ago
- 0
While on a Galapagos tour or an Antarctica cruise you can literally trip over the wildlife if you're not paying attention. However, we can all use a little advice on spotting those elusive or skittish species. Having a great guide during your travels is always key, but here are a few other helpful tips to practice when on your wildlife adventure.
1. Get up early -- turn in late. Dawn and dusk are when wildlife tend to be the most active, thus offering the best chances to spot your favorite wildlife creatures.
2. Know what to expect & where to look. Understand the seasonal patterns of wildlife. Many species only appear seasonally in certain regions. Learning a little about wildlife habitat, feeding habits, and favorite foods can also help focus your search.
3. Move slowly and keep quiet. The best way to increase your chances of spotting wildlife is to stop periodically and wait ... quietly.
4. Remember your binoculars. Binoculars provide the chance to enjoy an up-close wildlife experience at a safe distance.
5. Be patient and persistent. And remember, even if you don't spot the species you've been aching to see, enjoy the variety of other wildlife that cross your path during the pursuit.

Below is the poem entitled The Beauty in All of Us which was written by poet
Hays. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Audrey Hays
Is it truly defined by one's looks?
Or what comes from the heart?
I believe there's beauty in the one's who deny they posses such a wonderful blessing.
It doesn't matter if it's something physical you can see or
Something that doesn't pass in front of the eyes.
Beauty comes in more forms than one
It is your choice to decide what your mind will think.
Lots tell me I'm a beautiful person, but then
Why don't I feel that inside as well?
Does the outside even exist as beauty or is it
How well and caring a person can be?
I guess the question will be left open, maybe
Someone WILL come along and really prove what true beauty is all about.

Re: Discussion: Why are steroids considered cheating 100% but supps like creatine not at all?
Ok, I'll agree with you there for the most part. You bring up some good points.
What I really want to do is change the subject to something else.
On the Whey tub it even says it has "artificial flavors". Uh-oh, not everything is natural, it must be bad for you. Why is it so important for everything to be natural any way?
They are making some really incredibly accurate synthetic diamonds these days. You could give a girl a fake diamond and she might not know it's fake for the rest of her life. And it would still make her just as happy as if it were real; it had the same effect on her because it is beatiful and represents your love for her.
Now if this girl somehow found out that it was fake, she would be pissed. Why? Because apparently now it isn't about the stone being beautiful, it isn't about the love between you two, it's all of a sudden a horrible present because it isn't natural. Even though it is still as pretty as a real one.
See what I'm saying? What's the big deal here, why does it matter if something is natural or not as long as it does the same thing?
Also, what if tomorrow there is a news story about how scientists have found a way to make a safe steroid, with no more side effects than whey, but that works JUST as good as the old steroids. They say the FDA has decided to make this legal. So then you decide to wait ten years to see if anything bad happens to anybody and it turns out it really is safe. And so now there is a completely safe steroid that pretty much EVERYONE is taking, do you take it or do you not because it isn't "natural"? Do you really care then?
I guess what I'm trying to do is change the argument "I don't take steroids because they aren't natural" to I don't take steroids because they are extremely bad for you and because it has a bad rep."
If there's a really nice girl at your school but everyone in the school think she is easy and everyone says she has diseases and all this stuff. (I know, what a great example, huh?) And you really like her because she's nice to you. You're not going to go out with her because it isn't safe (diseases) and mostly because people will start talking and pretty soon you'll have a bad rep. I think that is why people don't take steroids. Not because it is unnatural, but because it isn't safe and because you care what your peers think of you and your rep could get destroyed if you do take steroids, even though it might be tempting if you are desperate.
And that is why a lot of people who do take them keep it secret, because they have an extremely bad reputation.
Well, keep the discussion goin, but I won't be on for a couple of hours to respond. My families going out to dinner. See ya guys. [img]/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
man...your missing the point im making and keep putting up these hypotheticals and examples that do not relate to my statement: Steroids are cheating because they are NOT found naturally in any food product. Do ARTIFICIAL FLAVOURS AT ALL go towards anabolism? If we are discussing "natural ingredients" then yeh you could say whey is not completely natural, but we are discussing if steroids are cheating and drawing the line on wether a supplement is natural or not is a key issue. So lets say I bought unflavoured whey, that would, by your previus argument, make it completely natural right?

The Governors Ball Music Festival in New York City has absolutely nothing to do with the governor just in case you were wondering. And while the three day event of diverse acts is five months away, an official lineup announcement video dropped naming two of the three headliners. Kanye West and Kings of Leon are headlining the festival along with a mystery act that hasn't been disclosed yet. A month before Kanye's second-coming baby is born he'll hit the stage at Randall's Island.
Early tickets go on sale for a whopping $190, which will eventually increase to $205 and finally $220. If you're wondering why on earth you'd pay $190 for a ticket think of it this way: You're seeing a bazillion acts in concert all in one swap for three days. Along with the headliners we're most excited about Nas, You Oughta Know graduates The Lumineers, Icona Pop, Kendrick Lamar, Miguel and Holy Ghost!. Check out the video of the lineup below.

During my past 3 weekly visits it seems like the seance sequence of the HM has been out of sync. For example, Madame Leyota will will ask the spirits to signal by ringing a bell but the bell rings before she requests the signal. Same thing when she requests the tamborine, it rattles before she requests it. The request for music from beyond is also out of sync.
I had always thought the Madame Leyota dialog and the resulting sounds effects came from the same source but being out of sync would seem to indicate otherwise.
Has anyone else noticed this?
I'm sure the spirits know the routine after almost 40 years and are just anticipating their cue but they need to work on their timing!

Recipe by moonpig
"This is a gorgeous, easy and pretty quick version of lamb tagine I made on Valentine's Day. For an authentic feel we ate it with our fingers--it was a complete hit!"

2 tablespoons
extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon
cumin seeds
onion, thinly sliced
4 cloves
garlic, crushed
sweet potato, peeled and diced
2 (1 pound)
lamb shanks
1 (14.4 ounce) can
chopped canned tomatoes
1 1/4 cups
chopped dried apricots
1 1/2 teaspoons
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons
slivered almonds
1 cup
quick-cooking couscous
This was wonderful and will make it again. I made this for a family of 6. The shanks we tend to get are huge and I cook like to cook them very low & slow (about 3.5 hours). I wish i had kept this in mind when making this dish. Next time I will add the sweet potato about an hour before serving, not from the start as there were no discernible sweet potatoes left. I'm also thinking about substituting dried tart cherries for some of the apricots, just to a little more complexity to the flavor.

I just feel like there is too much emphasis put on shaft flex and I don't feel like it is anywhere close to as important as most people think. I give the weight and the torque of the shaft more credence than shaft flex. The weight of the club and the resistance to twisting or the torque mean much more to how the club is delivered than shaft flex. Kickpoint is also mostly irrelevant.
There really no such thing as a low launch or high launch shaft because the shaft doesn't have loft on it and no shaft is doing too much before impact. The club head, it's loft, CoG location, and how centered the strike is has way more influence on the ball's flight than the shaft ever will. Any club can be hit high or low depending on the impact conditions provided.
As others have probably already said, check your swing first and if you are getting a centered strike, then begin to examine the club and see if you can benefit from a change.

PRESTONSBURG — The Oleika Shrine Circus will be marking its 40th anniversary when it returns to town this weekend, even as its primary organizer over the decades has fallen ill.
The circus will return to Prestonsburg High School this year, after renovations last year forced a move to Allen Central High School. The show is expected to include all of the favorites audiences have come to expect over the years, complete with stunts, animals and clowns.
The circus will have two showings, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m., Saturday. Tickets are $10.
Local barber Kelly Moore, a past Potentate with the Shriners who has been the primary force behind the circus over the years, fell ill earlier this week and is currently recovering. Moore has battled serious health issues for the past couple of years.
But Moore's brother said he expects Moore to make every effort to be at this year's circus.
"Hopefully, he'll be able to be down there," Robert Moore said. "He's been so good for them, and you've got to have a leader. It's just a love for him to do it."

It's enough to make me happy
Apple announces multitasking for iPhone OS 4 (iPhone 3GS/iPod touch G3 only)
Apple today announced support for multitasking in iPhone 4.0, which go to developers today and the public this summer. CEO Steve Jobs admitted Apple wasn't first to market with multitasking, but like with cut, copy and paste from iPhone 3.0, he thinks Apple's implementation is best.
Multitasking will be supported for iPhone 3GS and iPod touch G3 (both released in 2009) but not previous generations like iPhone 2G or iPhone 3G due to hardware limitations. (Presumably it will run just fine on an iPhone G4 this summer...)
In terms of the UI, double-clicking the home button raises the current window and shows you actively running apps in the dock. You can scroll through those apps and rapidly switch between them. State is saved so apps appear persistent to the user. (For example, if you leave a game and come back, you no longer start over -- you start where you left off.)
Inside, Apple's SVP of iPhone Software, Scott Forstall explained they looked at existing apps and distilled 7 services those apps needed to run in background, then provided them via API. According to Apple, these are:
- Background audio - Allows your app to play audio continuously. So customers can listen to your app while they surf the web, play games, and more.
- Voice over iP - Your VoIP apps can now be even better. Users can now receive VoIP calls and have conversations while using another app. Your users can even receive calls when their phones are locked in their pocket.
- Background location - Navigation apps can now continue to guide users who are listening to their iPods, or using other apps. iPhone OS 4 also provides a new and battery efficient way to monitor location when users move between cell towers. This is a great way for your social networking apps to keep track of users and their friends' locations.
- Push notifications - Receive alerts from your remote servers even when your app isn't running.
- Local notifications - Your app can now alert users of scheduled events and alarms in the background, no servers required.
- Task finishing - If your app is in mid-task when your customer leaves it, the app can now keep running to finish the task.
- Fast app switching - All developers should take advantage of this. This will allow users to leave your app and come right back to where they were when they left - no more having to reload the app.
Pandora said it took 1 day to recode and enable background in their app. Skype is also shown (which may explain their delayed 3G launch?)
Overall, it appears like Apple has once again abstracted a concept from low-level and developer-centric to higher level and OS-managed. Like Grand Central does for multi-core dispatch in Mac OS X, or CoreData, CoreAnimation, etc. do across Apple's platforms, it does the heavy-lifting and tries to maximize user experience at the same time.
Our question for you is, does this beat Palm webOS cards or Android multitasking? Is it enough to make you happy?

Apple announces multitasking for iPhone OS 4 (iPhone 3GS/iPod touch G3 only)
So this probably won't drain battery as badly as Backgrounder, because only the services that need to be running when an app is in the background will be running. And switching will probably be quicker than with Proswitcher. It sounds like they've done this right, but I hope this isn't the only major feature in 4.0.
Seems very similar to Android's bundles/services model, which is a good thing.
Multitasking looks to be 3GS/IPod Touch 3rd gen and up only. Not surprising.
We went through the same thing with some features in 3.0.
Apple-is-good-way-of-looking-at-it: Apple did not feel the 2G or 3G could run with satisfactory performance.
Apple-is-evil-way-of-looking-at-it: Apple held them out in a pure money grab to force people to buy new phones.
Expect a ton of posts like these :)
Uh 2G/3G iPhones didn't have Multitasking when you bought them, did they? So why all the fuss?
Neither did the 3GS.
Really, kid, grow the hell up. People buy upgradeable software based devices with the expectation that they will be upgraded over time with new software. Your argument is old and weak. Its the same argument used to justify no copy/paste, no mms. Give it a rest.
I have a question, does this mean I can run IM+ or some other chat software in the background?
Can I can be connected all the time?
Currently push notifications suck because the software has to launch again and re-connect to the server. If I was running in the background, then it is just a matter of bringing the app to the foreground and I can chat with whomever, no waiting.
In fact, I also predicted that the 3G wouldn't get multitasking for performance reasons, based on reports of how well jailbroken iPhones were performing with multitasking. It sets a precedent for how long Apple expects to be able to support new features on older iPhones.
The 3G was released 2 years ago this summer, so people who bought it with 2 year contracts are up for a new phone this summer anyway.
Finally, let me add that I think it's funny how people keep predicting a front-facing camera and it keeps not showing up.
Great implementation. I think they hit it. We'll see how well it works.
This is longgg over due.
I think that this may be one of the best ways that Apple could have implemented multitasking without seeming as though they copied WebOS etc. I can't wait until the new iPhone comes out so I can upgrade my 3G to something faster and better! This is the update I needed to see to stay with the iPhone and I'm pleased.
On a side note, the people complaining about not being able to use your 3G with the 4.0 OS are getting annoying! The same thing happened last year with the original iPhone and it's to be expected because technology is ever changing and let's face it, the hardware in the 3G is somewhat outdated...
Not sweet, now the value of my 3G has greatly fallen :(
It's really unfortunate that they're leaving behind the 3G folks and couldn't come up with a way to implement multitasking.
I am pumped about this "added" functionality. I used to have a Pre and really miss the universal inbox and calendar and the stock multitasking. I must admit, I really like the way they handled the multitasking with the app icons at the bottom of the screen... very nice! I can't wait. I was hoping we'd get something until then, but I'll be patient. I wonder what else will be added. It didn't get any buzz, but I saw the 5x zoom on the slide. I hope they will post a full list of all of the new features before the June meeting. No SBS-Settings type program was mentioned, but I hope it'll be there by the time it is released.
need to kno!! will this prevent that annoying wait everytime i launch meebo, ebuddy im+ or beejive?!! it drives me mad and its the only reason i want true multitasking any thing else is good enough with a saved state imo....please apple let im apps run in the backgroud push notifs are gayyyy
@jerry the new sdk has 1500 new api's hopefully theres one for that... lmao who am i kidding this is apple they will never allow that but yew can close apps probably in one way or another....
It's great and all but did they mention how/if this will interfere with the current settings for double home button taps? I have it set to bring up the iPod and I don't want to get rid of that option all together. Any word on that?
Also, I went from iPhone EDGE to 3GS. Not getting all the functions of an upgrade (if an OS upgrade at all) is nothing new. Sucks to be getting the same response from people on here that I was getting from you huh? :)
Great Apple go. Suck yourselves with your hate on my 3G
if i double click for the app switcher , how will i quickly change songs with the ipod shortcut which uses the same process ( double click )
the reason apple took out the double tap for music controls feature is very very simple...this multitasking is only for newer ipods and iphones....and they come with the headfones with the remote that does this...all the other models should retain this feature tho..
Palm Pre troll here, I look but rarely comment on other forums, but this one is starting to bug me. I have a release day pre,which i've never had to upgrade to get the newest updates, but I sure as hell would. Probably not at the rate WebOS releases updates, but probably an annual thing. What all you people bitching about not getting updates to your older phones, try and think about how much more you'd be bitching if your phone lagged more. Or worse, try and think of how crappy this phone would be in a few years if the new software had to be able to run on old hardware. technology moves too fast to be held up by outdated hardware,and to keep in the game, any company that wants to move forward is going to utilise their options which will suit the and their customers most.
if your phone works for you now, you don't need multitasking (uhem...cough...cough), if you need multitasking, get a pre.....or,i mean, upgrade your damn phone! People that want a phone that utilises the newest technologies shouldn't have to wait for you. Sorry, but better software usually requires better hardware, you don't have it.
Steve's serving up more kool-aid for y'all. This isn't real multitasking (like on WebOS) but multitasking-lite. And, I feel for your horrendous notification system. I for one could never fathom having to connect up to iTunes every time I wanted to grab audio, video, or upgrade my OS. The Pre does all the software installs and upgrades over the air, and the cell acts like a USB drive so just a matter of dragging and dropping with full transparency.
Is it any wonder then the Pre Plus topped the field in last week's Laptopmag.com Battle of Smartphones? [http://blog.laptopmag.com/march-smart-phone-madness-finals-motorola-droi...
If you read the messages, it goes to show how enthusiastic the WebOS homebrew community is. Palm actively encourages tinkering under the hood and gives us full-access to the internals out of the starting gate. And, we don't have to jailbreak our phones just to squeeze out basic locked functionality. We can patch and go as we please!
I have to say, this isn't really multi-tasking is it. My guess is their hardware can't handle it (despite the 3GS's hardware being better than the Pre Plus, which handles full multi-tasking). Says something about the iPhone OS doesn't it. I guess they're waiting to get new hardware out, if iPhone G4 doesn't support ful multi-tasking they'll be dead in the water. I hate to say it, but if Palm gets its hardware right next time, sorts out its ad campaign and keeps releasing updates at this rate, they're going to pose a serious threat to Apple...
I'm running the beta right now. Once you press the Home button with an app open, it goes into a paused state. To actually close the app, bring up the list of apps running (double press Home) then hold your finger on the icon of the app running the same way you would go to move icons around on the home screen. A little minus sign will show in the top left corner of the app. Just press on that to close it. Restarting your phone doesn't close everything fyi.
Basically, Apple already put in a task manager.
Ie recently started a blog, the information you provide on this site has helped me tremendously. Thank you for all of your time & work.

You are looking at the logo for The Shining, a division 2 beer-league team that plays out of the Winterhawks Skating Center in Beaverton, Oregon. You may notice that this logo bears a striking resemblance to the Vancouver Canucks' third/original stick-in-rink logo.
You may also notice that it's awesome. Granted, I have a pretty huge bias here, as "The Shining" is my favourite movie ever, but still. That looks downright fantastic.
The logo is the work of displaced Canucks fan Brett German, who is a German in name only. He's a British Columbian, raised in Richmond and schooled at UVIC before winding up in Portland for work. As for the team he plays on, here's his explanation:
The Shining was formed, as we say, from blood and necessity. Three seasons ago, Div. 2 lost a team and was looking at a 7-team league. My buddy Tom Carlier and I met with the elders of our team, the league champion Blackhole Tattoo, and proposed a deal over ale at the immortal Green Dragon in southeast Portland…we would take 4 players and use that as a base to form an 8th team in order to save the league from the indignity of "bye weeks".
The team was named The Shining on the ride home. I knew Tom liked Stephen King, and it just came to me as though we had always played on The Shining…weird.
I'd make a trip down there to watch the team play, but I'd hate to get Dick Halloran'd.
According to German, the Shining's roster is from all over. And since German also plays on Blackhole, there's probably room for you to join the team if you're in the area.
German put it a creepier way: "Come play with us… forever, and ever, and ever…"
It's been a good week for references to "The Shining" in hockey. On Monday, I salivated over Richard Bachman's new goaltending mask, painted by artist David Gunnarsson as an homage to the classic film (as well as the fact that Bachman shares his name with one of Stephen King's early pseudonyms).
Plus I have it on good authority that Vancouver geek royalty Dave Delisle might be working on a Shining hockey jersey.

Yacht Excursions
Here is a sample itinerary based on arrival to the Galapagos on Sunday. Please note that this trip can also begin in the Galapagos on Wednesday.
Upon arrival to the airport at Baltra Island, you will be taken across the Itabaca Channel,to Santa Cruz Island. Where a bus will take you to the highlands of Santa Cruz Island for a visit the Giant Tortoises Reserve in their natural habitat, a once in a lifetime experience!
A stop is then made at the Twin Pit Craters, great depressions of volcanic material, formed by a long process of slow sinking of the ground, where exceptional Scalesia trees, ferns, mosses and orchids can be seen in the surroundings.
NORTH SEYMOUR ISLAND Yacht Excursion
A stroll on flat terrain allows the observation of Palo Santo trees and colonies of blue-footed boobies, swallow-tailed gulls and magnificent frigate birds. Towards the other side of the island, the ocean crashes against the rocks and sea lions surf in the waves.
PLAZA ISLAND Yacht Excursion
This small island is full of fascinating wildlife, at sea side and along the cliffs: sea lions, land iguanas, swallow-tailed gulls, Opuntia cacti and vegetation that changes colors with the seasons.
Stay at Santa Cruz Island and enjoy the activities of your choice. Hike to Las Grietas, snorkeling, birdwatching (without extra cost) or guided excursions at extra cost such as cruise of the bay, mountain bike in the highlands of Santa Cruz, Discover Scuba Diving.
SANTA FE ISLAND (Barrington) Yacht Excursion
A short trek leads through woods of Opuntia cacti and Palo Santo trees. Land iguanas (endemic to Santa Fe), lava lizards and colonies of sea lions can be observed. There is opportunity to swim and snorkel.
HIKE TO TORTUGA BAY in the morning.
It is considered the nicest spot of the archipelago, a peaceful corner for the nature lover. Tortuga Bay�s name comes from the sea turtles that go there to lay their eggs. Excellent bird watching can be found along the way and at the Bay. Snack is included.
Free time in the afternoon to relax by the pool or on the beach or visit Puerto Ayora.
The trail is a fairly steep climb on wooden steps to the summit, worth the effort, as there is a spectacular view of the Galapagos scenery from above. Interesting lava formations and tuff cones can be observed. Sea lions and penguins swim in the vicinity of Pinnacle Rock. Enjoy snorkeling or swimming from the beach.
Leave the hotel early in the morning for a visit to the Charles Darwin Research Station, home to giant tortoises from all over the islands. Then, overland transfer to the airport in Baltra to take the flight back to the continent (and reality).
Land Excursions:
Tortuga Bay is considered the nicest spot in the archipelago, a peaceful corner for the nature lover. Its name comes from the sea turtles that go there to lay their eggs. Excellent bird watching can be found along the way to and at the Bay.
Many options for multisport activities are available for those guests not wishing to take a yacht excursion to visit nearby islands. Additional fees may be required.
* Excursions on Mountain Bike
* Introduction to diving (Discover Scuba Diving)
* Snorkeling
* Bird watching

Display Activex Plugin on safari
Hi EveryOne,
I am new to mac and i know c,c++ i want to develope an application for safari browser.
I want to display activex component on mac safari browser as we can see in IE.
Please tell me is this possible ?
and if Possible what wouldbe the approach for this.
Thanks & Regards
Amit Kumar Mangal
ActiveX does not exist on the Mac. Microsoft has chosen not to make it available.
Happily, most people seem to hate it, so (outside of games) its unpopular enough that it makes no difference to most Mac users whatsoever ... unless you are a Realtor.
Hi Chas_m,
Means we cant open a website in the safari which is using acyivex component like media player ?
Thanks & Regards
Amit Kumar Mangal
Luckily, in 30 years of surfing the web, I think I've run into this "problem" maybe three times, all involving cheap Linksys webcams from several years back.
