السفر الي تايلاندا
One great way to explore Thailand is by boat. Riding a boat around Bangkok is a common local experience and a great way for tourists to see the city. The Chao Phraya River is a major transportation artery, with ferries, water taxis (the Chao Phraya Express) and long-tailed boats operating for both locals and tourists. There are local, semi-express, and express lines for commuters, most of which connect to the BTS Silom line (at Saphan Taksin station) and service destinations up and down the river. Though the river winds a lot, which can make the trip much farther than by bus, travel on the Chao Phraya provides a fascinating insight on the importance of the river to Thailand: temples bound its shores, cargo-laden barges flow downstream to port, and riverside families fish and even bathe in the river! Taking a river cruise or a local water taxi is an ideal way to get from destinations on the BTS line to historic Ratanakosin, where the Grand Palace and other attractions lie. There are even boat companies who cruise from Bangkok to Ayutthaya as well.
Bangkok, once known as 'the Venice of the east' is also crisscrossed by a number of klongs (canals). The Klong Saen Saeb boat service provides fast, inexpensive transportation in central Bangkok. These boats, which are almost exclusively used by locals, provide a peek at another side of Bangkok, and whisk passengers across town much more quickly than taxis driving on traffic congested roads do.
Along Thailand's twin shores of the Andaman Sea and Gulf of Thailand, ferry service between dozens of islands and the mainland is available, most popularly between Surat Thani and Koh Samui/Koh Phangan, and between Phuket or Krabi and Koh Phi Phi. Ferries to and from Koh Samui depart night and day and include super-fast catamarans and slower, overnight car ferries.
Once on the islands it's easy to get around by boat: From Phuket or Samui one can hire speedboats to get to nearby beaches or neighboring islands, whereas on smaller islands like Koh Tao or Koh Lanta long tail boats operate as taxis, ferrying passengers from beach to beach. While prices are negotiable to hire by the hour or the day, some routes, such as Krabi to Railey Beach are a fixed price.
It should be noted that it's not necessary to buy a return ticket for ferries to the islands. There is no such thing as a sold-out boat, so buying a return ticket the day of your departure is not a problem. Furthermore, you may be overcharged on your first ticket (and thus overcharged twice), or you may wish to change your next destination or decide to travel onwards with a different type of transportation.
It should be noted however that there have been some accidents with overloaded ferries traveling in rough seas. As a general rule of thumb, it is safer to travel by boat during the day, particularly from the mainland to the islands and during times of inclement weather.

Jets Sign Blocking Tight End Tarren Lloyd
I've learned tonight that the Jets have signed Tarren Lloyd, an undrafted free agent from Utah State.
Pro Football Weekly conducted a scouting report on Lloyd before the draft.
Big, in-line blocking tight end with good foot speed who helped pave the way for one of the nation's most productive rushing attacks. Former walk-on with limited career production, but understands positioning, generates movement in the run game and is a functional short receiver. Needs to get stronger.
For his career, Lloyd had 25 catches for 280 yards (11.2 ypc) with four TDs in playing 39 career games, with 16 career starts. If you recall, leading up to the draft, the Jets were very interested in Utah State University running back Robert Turbin and his backup Michael Smith. Thus, I'm sure the Jets watched a lot of film on them, and saw a lot of Lloyd. He was originally signed as an UDFA by the Panthers, but they cut him on May 16th, to make room for veteran tight end Joe Jon Finley.
Lloyd is a big kid. At (6-7, 258lbs.), He will likely compete with Brian Linthicum, Dedrick Epps and Hayden Smith for a roster spot.
Before Lloyd signed, the Jets roster stood at 90 players, the maximum. Thus, they will need to release a player in order to make room for Lloyd. Not sure who that will be, but stay tuned and we should have it for you shortly..

AUGUSTA, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - The Maine Attorney General's office is issuing an alert for people who may have used an out-of-state service for buying tickets for shows and other forms of entertainment recently.
The service, Venidini, Inc., has been hacked, exposing financial information for tens of thousands of customers.
Vendini sent a letter to Maine's Attorney General about the breach. Vendini's letter says that on March 29th, someone broke into a server that contains the names, addresses, email addresses, credit card numbers and credit card expiration dates of tens of thousands of people, 22,900 Mainers among them.
Vendini made a point to mention that they do not store the access codes of any cards - that's the three digit number on the back of your card necessary for most purchases.
Vendini does not believe the breach continued past April 25.
Maine's Attorney General is concerned about the delay in notifying customers. The letter from Vendini suggests the delay came after coordinating with federal authorities.
Vendini will be sending letters to those affected by the breach. The Attorney General recommends that you check your statements.

Memphis 125, Clippers 120
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Sun, 01/27/08, 01:04pm:
Category: General
Posted by: Kevin Arnovitz
There are ebbs and flows throughout regulation and overtime, but Memphis wins the game because the Clippers do nothing defensively below the stripe to deprive the Grizzlies of points, rebounds, or space. Kyle Lowry penetrates with ease all night and the Clippers are uncharacteristically soft when bodying up against Memphis. Tim Thomas plays like an efficient low-post power forward in the Clippers' halfcourt, but he's physically manhandled on the defensive end on a night when the Clippers desperately need him to play up to his size. With Thomas, though, it's as much mind as it is body. We see it on the game's very first possession, when he leaves Gay alone on the perimeter to pick up a diving Darko Milicic. We see it on the second possession when he slides off Gay again to become the third Clipper to collapse on a driving Mike Miller. And on the third possession – remember, Gay already has five points in the first 90 seconds – he barely puts up a hand to challenge Gay's 20-foot set shot. I know it's unseemly to lambaste a guy who chips in 23 points on 10-13 shooting, but any informed critique of this game – one in which an average offensive team minus its best offensive player achieves anything they want offensively – has to conclude that Tim Thomas makes it all possible with one of the worst individual defensive performances of recent memory. It's all the more frustrating when you consider that Thomas has played some quality defensive games this season. His cover of Dirk Nowitzki a couple of weeks back should be considered for outstanding defensive work against a parahuman. But this game is one malfunction after another. The rebounding, as you would expect in Chris Kaman's absence, is atrocious. On the Memphis end, the Grizzlies collect 13 offensive boards to the Clippers' 26 defensive rebounds. Without Maggette, the margin would be even scarier. Once the Clippers abandon the post, the game is perfectly tailored to Corey Maggette since the Grizzlies have zero shotblocking and can't offer help defense to save their lives. Furthermore, Memphis doesn't do much defensively off the ball either, and Corey takes full advantage of it. This is illustrated perfectly at the outset of the second quarter when Corey slides along the baseline, being tailed by Bobby Jones, then cuts out to the arc. When Jones decides to follow him only as far as the edge of the lane, Corey starts his engine and essentially runs a pattern along the arc. Brevin Knights hits him mid-route just above the elbow. From there, Corey never slows as he knives through the lane for an easy layup. So far as the moment at the end of regulation after Maggette strips Mike Miller on the way to the rim with about seven seconds, I don't know why a team in this situation doesn't try to convert without a timeout. Even recognizing that the Clippers are possibly the least competent fast break/transition team in the league, I still think they've got a better chance to score in transition with the clock winding down than allowing a bad Memphis defensive squad set itself up in the halfcourt. Needless to say, the Clips are late calling time, then turn it over on the inbound. In retrospect, the Clips are fortunate that, after Gay steals the inbound, there isn't any more than 2.9 seconds remaining. The overtime period demonstrates a couple of small, telling failures. Take the Memphis possession at 3:20. The Grizzlies run a very high S/R with Miller and Hakim Warrick. Quinton Ross is on Mike Miller and Thomas has Warrick. Miller is along the right baseline and Warrick comes over from his left to set the screen on Ross. Ross easily wiggles above it. But Tim Thomas – instead of picking up the diving Warrick – is lurching toward Miller [I guess to trap]. Ross collides into Thomas, who then realizes that he was supposed to pick up Warrick on the drag. Thomas tries to recover but it's elementary at this point. Warrick buries a wide, wide open 15 footer. A couple of minutes later, Thomas decides again to leave Warrick at 13 feet to collapse on a driving Juan Carlos Navarro, even though Thomas isn't the help defender on this play and, in fact, he's the one guy on this set other than Ross who needs to stay home. Navarro recognizes Thomas's shift immediately and floats a beautiful pass across his body to a wide open Warrick. Another two for the Grizzlies' PF. Okay, so I'm piling on. But this is a game the Clips can win with some reasonably intelligent stay-at-home defense. Yet on seemingly every possession, with the exception of a very heady stretch during the first 8:30 of the fourth quarter, guys collapse when they don't need to. Or it's the wrong guys. Or they're steering their assignments away from the help instead of toward it. The Clippers have every opportunity to be the smarter team, but in the end, they fail.

At home and in the busy marketplace, the compassion and wisdoming of the whole Universe is constantly being revealed. In the midst of the discordant sounds and chattering voices of daily life, turn the light inward and intimately discern the deep and abiding silence and stillness of your core Self. Know that Vast Wisdoming penetrates the infinity of space and the three periods of time. Being wholehearted and mindful in each moment, clarify the sacredness and tranquility that permeates all passing forms, colors, and sensations.
When your body, mind, heart, and spirit are all settled into the seated Oneness of zazen-only, a wonderful human being is embodied and realized before thought and reason. Devotedly lingering in the felt sensuality and bright wisdoming of your core Self, embrace the still mountain and nourish the open and wakeful sky.
With dignity, faith, courage, and self-compassion arise to live the Way of deep listening and constantly blend with vast Oneness for the mutual benefit of self and others. With each step along this Ancient Way, clarify and embrace the deepening truth of your journey through life and death, just as it is.
Facing those things you dislike or seek to exclude from your awareness, see how they continue to arise. Observe how they enter the gate of consciousness and abide within your heart and mind without invitation or permission. Be wakeful not to inflect anger and judgment on yourself or your distressing guests.
Observe the beginning of uncomfortableness and your relationship to it as clearly and as openly as possible. Gently and compassionately restrain your reactive impulse to narrow your vision and diminish your sight through attachment to passing judgments, self-pity, blaming others, or self-condemnation.
Gather together all incongruous elements within yourself as a mother lovingly gathers her unruly and incompliant children. Once you have gathered them as your very own, nourish their inclusion, refinement and integration with self-compassion, mindfulness, and inner discerning wisdom. Let the noble seat of meditation, the settledness of your core Self, and your sincere deep listening be your guide.
Abide steadfastly in the precious body of zazen-only, for it is the True seated, upright and wakeful posture of an core Self in this Only Moment Body. Resting in the center of your lower abdomen and listening with the ten thousand pores of your whole body, feel the wisdom, dignity, and trustworthyness of your fundamental aloneness and sense your Infinite Companionship with all space and time. Honoring your basic goodness as a Human Being, endlessly arise from this True Place and practice compassion for both self and others.
When you sincerely practice the Way of deep listening through your Only Moment Body with total exertion, devotion, faith, gratitude, humility, and beginner's heart/mind, the Vast integrity and mystery that penetrates everywhere is no other than your core Self. All this is called, "Listening deeply before thoughts of knowing, gaining, or attaining, living enlightenment is completely accomplished in this Only Moment Body right here and now".
with blessings and gassho,

NORWOOD State police are investigating the Saturday morning theft of a cash register from Clark-Robinson American Legion Post 68.
A burglar alarm call came in at 7:13 a.m. from the post at 10 Maple St., troopers said, and an eyewitness told investigators that he saw a man running from the building toward the woods with the register in his arms.
Troopers with dogs and a helicopter converged on the area. The register was recovered later Saturday, apparently with nothing missing, troopers said.
Post Commander Elaine A. Saarinen believes the intruder was scared off by the alarm.
Its a strobe alarm, Ms. Saarinen said. You can hear it. Half the village of Norwood probably heard it.
Following numerous interviews, troopers on Tuesday still were looking for the suspect, described only as an approximately 6-foot-tall male.

Traditionally, the bride's family pays for the bulk of the wedding and reception expenses, with the groom's family picking up the tab for smaller details. Today, however, 'anything goes' is becoming more the rule than the exception. Often, wedding expenses are shared evenly by both families.
Sometimes the bride and groom may even pay for everything themselves, particularly if they are older or established. The smartest plan includes a candid discussion between the bride, groom, and both sets of parents to determine a realistic budget and who will be responsible for which expenses.
Remember, when the going gets tough, keep talking. Communication at all stages of the game will help avoid misunderstandings and hurt feelings later on. If everyone involved agrees on paying for the wedding in the traditional way, you can use the following list as a starting point for your plans.
Otherwise, you can modify the list by divvying up expenses in a way that suits you and your new family:
The bride pays for:
The groom's ring
Wedding gift for the groom
Gifts for bridal attendants
Personal stationery
Accommodations for her out-of-town attendants
Her physical exam
The bride's parents pay for:
Press announcements
The printing and mailing of wedding invitations
Flowers and decorations for the ceremony
Flowers for bride's attendants
The reception
Photographers' and videographer expenses
The bride's wedding gown and accessories
Transportation to ceremony and reception
Wedding cake
All wedding stationery
The groom pays for:
The bride's rings
Marriage license
Wedding gift for bride
Clergy or judge's fees
Flowers for the bride; corsages for both mothers; and boutonnieresfor himself, the best man, groomsmen and both fathers
Gifts for the best man and groomsmen
Accommodations for out-of-town ushers or best man
His own wedding attire
Honeymoon expenses
The groom's family pays for:
Their clothes for the wedding
Their traveling expenses and/or hotel bills;
Wedding gift for bride and groom
Rehearsal dinner or other expenses they choose to assume which sometimes includes formalwear rentals
The bridesmaids pay for:
Their own gowns and accessories although the bride may opt to contribute
Other attendants pay for:
Their own wedding attire and traveling expenses
Guests pay for:
Their own traveling expenses

By DEAN DRAPERMillard County Chronicle Progress
Grazing permits on federal land were first issued by the U S Forest Service in 1906. Grazing permits issued on the rest of the federal land came about after the passage of the Taylor Grazing Act of 1934. By June 1935 over 65 million acres had been placed in grazing districts.
One of the tools used to monitor grazing was the ear tag. Ear tags varied in size, shape and information recorded on them. The original ear tags were made of metal.
National forest tags identified the forest and the grazing year. A serial number identifying the permit holder was also present on the tag. For example, the tag would have Fishlake N. F. in a diamond-shaped region with 1947 beneath it and 15455 stamped on the tag. One tag issued showed the creativity of the Fishlake National Forest personnel. Instead of an oval, round or diamond shield, the 1933 ear tags features a fish-shaped shield.
Ear tags used on what is now BLM-administered lands would normally include the name of the permit holder and their home base. An example of this type featured the name "Cluff Talbot, Hinckley Utah" stamped in the metal.
Such tags could be found in use up until the 1960s. A change in technology brought about plastic tags and eventually reflective tags. The reflective tags are used to bring attention to an animal in the dark when grazing on open range.
Ike Harward of Delta and Dave Levanger of Spring Glen has put together a display of metal ear tags. While they are generally a thing of the past, a check on the internet will tell anyone that new ones can still be obtained, although most ranchers don't use that kind anymore.
Harward started collecting them years ago with a tag his family used. It caught his imagination and he then kept a watchful eye out for other tags.
"Ear tags made during World War II imitated the copper pennies issued by the U.S. Mints-they were made of steel to help save precious metals for the war effort," said Harward.
Some tags were homemade. For instance a rectangular copper tag Harward owns was made by F.W. Memmott of Scipio. It once graced the ear of a bull. Other local names in the Millard County area also on many of his tags.
Levanger began collecting them when he found a bunch of them when he was working with his family years ago in a corral just outside of Boulder in Wayne County. He gathered them up and mounted them on a board that now hangs in his office at Carbon County Planning and Zoning where he works.
"It was a tradition to go there to gather cattle for my family," said Levanger. "One day I just realized a lot of them were there.
While he hasn't actively looked for them for some time, when he discovers one somewhere he picks it up. Until he learned about Harward's collection he didn't realize others were collecting them.
"I guess I will keep my eyes out for them," he said.
His collection does not include any from Emery or Carbon county, but those probably exist in various places in the area. One of his tags is a BLM tag that says "BLM 298."
He also has some tags from the Dixie National Forest and a couple that read "K.G. King and Sons." That tag is from the Anitmony area.
Different ranchers from all over the state grazed and used the ranges in various parts of Utah. These ranching entities included the LDS Church and the Utah State Prison.
So these many years later, these tags provide a mute history looking into the not-so-distant past of the state and the areas involved in ranching on public land.

Sunday, January 24, 2010The men's distance medley relay of Mike Yang, Bobby Bassett, Isaiah Greer and Ryan Chastain highlighted two days of competition at the ETSU Niswonger Invite for Lipscomb. The team of three freshmen and one senior, Chastain, won the event in a time of 10:21.87, out-dueling 18 other teams. That time also took 12 seconds off the school record.
The Bisons and Lady Bisons saw several more indoor track school records fall. Anika Piorkowski set a new record in the 60m with a time of 8.31. Sara Stephens took over the all time top spot in the 200m with a time of 26.33. Amanda Twigg earned a new indoor school record in the 400m with a 61.58. Bobby Bassett also took down the men's 400m indoor record in 50.98. Anika, Sara, Amanda and Bobby are all freshmen.
The women's 4x400m relay of Valerie Winkler, Emily Longden, Amanda Twigg and Sara Stephens ran 4:07.73 taking seven more seconds off the school record. Just two weeks ago the relay took 12 seconds off the school record.
Lipscomb also had four heat winners with Burton Elrod and Brock Lutes in the 200m, and Mike Yang and Amanda Twigg in the Mile. Isaiah Greer finished fifth overall out of 56 milers, Amanda was 6th overall out of 56 milers, with fellow freshmen Priya Pappu and Shelby Marvel 8th and 12th overall.
"Another great meet for our program, especially so early in the season," said head coach Bill Taylor. "Our distance runners have only had two weeks of quality work, which is usually just enough to get them really sore. I liked the competitiveness I saw throughout the teams. We have a lot of work to do, however this is a very positive start and points to another historic year."

Reviews (4)
"Great for Arabs"
"I was having a terrible time finding the right snaffle for my Arabian. The ""break"" on regular snaffles was hitting the top of her palate and she was constantly ""behind"" the bit as a result. Like other reviewers, I searched other sites for this design and found it - in the 4 3/4 size we needed! Now we are ""on"" the bit, happy, and the head shaking and jitters are gone. Thanks, Jeffers for offering the smaller size and great pricing."
"Gentle Bit"
Jeffers has the best price on this bit - I checked several other vendors. A very gentle bit that is not too thick or heavy. After using this you'll never go back to a single jointed snaffle.
"Best bit you can get!"
My horse that detests snaffles loves this bit. He loves the center oval piece and I think the curved mouthpiece helps him accept it better also. When I first received this in the mail it seemed fairly big and heavy (I purchased the 5 1/2 inch mouthpiece) but my horse has no problems with it whatsoever and it fits him perfectly. No more head tossing! Also, the price is wonderful. You can't beat it anywhere else!
"great design"
You can't beat the design of this bit, horses react so much better to that jointed mouthpiece, as it says in the description it's much easier on the bars of the mouth and won't pinch the tongue, throw your regular snaffles out.

Taylor Kitsch On Why His Jeans Needed 'the Crotch Elongated'
Our Normal Heart is racing!!
Is possible to be jealous of a piece of clothing? Because we're this close to praying we come back in our next life as a pair of Taylor Kitsch's jeans!
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter promoting The Normal Heart, Kitsch explains how a pair of his 1980's Calvin Klein jeans had to be expanded in the crotch due to...overcrowding.
From THR:
"I'm not flattering myself, but they had to get the crotch elongated," Kitsch said, moving his hands farther and farther apart to demonstrate.
"You just flattered yourself, there's no two ways about it," protested Normal Heart co-star Jim Parsons. "The first time you walked off the set in those jeans, I went, 'What brand are those?' And he goes, 'Don't worry about it.' "
Added Mark Ruffalo with a laugh: "Those are amazing!"
Kitsch said he wore the jeans "as many times as they let me," adding that he and director Ryan Murphy had "mini-battles" over how often the pants could appear in the film.
We look forward to assessing those jeans closely when The Normal Heart premieres on May 25!
Makes perfect sense to me- depending on what direction a guy 'dresses' down there that tight fabric in the front can really pinch a guy hard ;-)
Wish the video would show up! :(
Video is showing up for me. I have this problem often with u instinct...
Love him and his elongated crotch!

Comments about Suzuki 2 TIMER TREMOLO HARMONICA:
I was curious about the tremolo, having only played chromatic and diatonic harmonicas. The tremolo seems to have a greater range when it comes to melody solos than the ten hole diatonic (just because there are more notes). For those of us that are used to the diatonic, it takes a little getting used to, but before long, it all seems to fall into place.
