Other Things to Note

We ask guests arrive before 10 p.m. This is a private home, so we ask that you respect the owner by being considerate, neat, quiet and thoughtful. Do not enter the owner's bedroom. Park on the lower driveway. Knock on the library door before entering to borrow a book. Use the garage refrigerator to store your groceries.

Donna was great! She made sure I got I to the house and stayed up since I was getting there kind of late. Very clean and quiet place. Free coffee and tea, too!
Donna is THE best host!! Tea, coffee, a chocolate on my pillow! And whoa the space is luxurious, spacious, set with acres of trees out the window. The sound of running water in the brook is soothing. Hands down-the best place I have ever stayed at during 20 years of global travel.
What a wonderful, wonderful host and home. You will love it as much as we did. We stay at Donna's home for 8 days and were loathed to leave. We had a large, comfortable room, bed, walk-in closet, private bath, separate refrigerator to store or food. We cooked all our breakfasts, several dinners in a lovely, spacious kitchen. The house is quite large and you can hardly tell other people live in the house. The back yard is wooded and goes down and up a hill, has a stream running through it and a large patio and walkway into the wooded back yard. You'll love this AirBnB as much as we did.
What a wonderful stay! Donna is an incredible host, so warm and generous, and I had a fantastic time at her place. It was my first time in Alabama and now I'm determined to return!
Donna is an elegant and generous person and her house is a reflection of her. This stay has every creature comfort one could hope for. Highly recommended!
If you find yourself in Birmingham, I highly suggest Donna's listing! Her home is beautiful and the perfect place to start and end your day. Sadly, I wasn't able to meet Donna, but her friend Bill - who is incredibly sweet - greeted and entertained us. He even played us a song on the piano! On our first morning, we made ourselves a cup of coffee (there's also a large selection of tea), sat in the screened in porch area, and looked out over the incredible backyard with Tux, the cat, curled up in our laps. Truly a great start to our morning.
The location is also convenient, it seems everything you could need is only 20 min away or less by car. There's a key to the bedroom door if you're concerned about your belongings, but we didn't find it necessary to use it. All in all, I would certainly stay at Donna's home again!
An amazing stay with a great host and a beautiful house. Your doing yourself a disservice if you don't stay with Donna.

About the Host, Donna
I welcome visitors, and look forward to meeting you. A local fill-in reporter and national radio reporter, I am knowledgable about the area. I've lived here for 20 years! I will do whatever I can to make your stay fun and comfortable. I love meeting new people. The space I'm offering to rent is not just private, elegant and comfortable, it's also affordable. Why stay in a hotel when you can enjoy the comfort of a home?

22 December 2014
When fighters captured Qaraqosh town in the heat of early August, Basseema had little time to think ahead to winter. Like thousands of other Iraqi Christians who fled the violence, carrying nothing to help them withstand the cold, she faces a painful festive season.
9 December 2014
Since fleeing their home in August, Hanaa and her family have rarely had the chance to choose what food they eat—at least until recently. WFP food vouchers are now giving them and many other vulnerable Iraqi families the power to pick their own meals, bringing a measure of nornality into their lives.
26 October 2014
Trapped in their homes and villages for many weeks, thousands of Yazidi civilians fled the area taking refuge in Duhok Governorate after militant groups killed many of them. The Kurdistan region is home to hundreds of thousands of displaced families fleeing many parts of Iraq. Conflict and political instability have forced 1.2 million people from their homes. Cars, packed with children, have been fleeing into the Kurdish region, where hundreds of thousands of people are already sheltering. Sabri Gheeru is one of them.
19 August 2014
Since violence erupted across Northern Iraq, causing massive displacements in mid-June from Mosul and surrounding towns and villages, the situation has deteriorated rapidly. Conflict and political instability have forced 1.2 million people from their homes. Cars, packed with children, have been fleeing into the Kurdish region, where hundreds of thousands of people are already sheltering.
11 August 2014
In spite of the challenging security situation and the fact that displaced populations are on the move, WFP has successfully distributed food to more than 438,000 people in 10 governorates across Iraq. Hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced by the crisis that first hit Mosul in mid-June and spread to surrounding cities and governorates. In recent days, a rising number of Iraqis have found themselves stranded around Iraq's Sinjar Mountains, fleeing violence. Since 4 August, WFP has set up four emergency kitchens in Dohuk and Lalish, enabling the food agency to assist more than 100,000 people who have fled the Sinjar area.
10 July 2014
When violence broke out in Samaraa city in Iraq's Salaheldin governorate, Umm Ibrahim, an Iraqi woman in her eighties, took shelter with nine other family members inside a relative's garage. Two nights later, they fled to Peramagroon district in the nearby Suleymaniyah governorate, where they now live inside a public school with twelve other displaced families.
3 July 2014
As violence escalates in Mosul and neighbouring cities in northern Iraq, thousands of people are fleeing their homes in search of safety. Esmat Ahmed, an Iraqi man in his late twenties, left his house and belongings in Hay El Baker village in Mosul last month. He braved the scorching heat and closed-off roads to walk to the neighbouring town of Qasrok, located in the Kurdistan region of Iraq where he now shares a small rented apartment with 14 other family members.
25 June 2014
WFP is in emergency mode in northern Iraq as it goes about organizing a food assistance operation for half a million people hit by the latest conflict there. Ertharin Cousin travelled to the region this week to see the impact of this new humanitarian crisis first-hand. She found some displaced families living in extremely harsh conditions and highlighted the need for international support.
30 August 2013
ERBIL, IRAQ – As the exodus continues of Syrians into the Kurdistan region of Iraq, the leaders of the UN refugee agency and the World Food Programme paid tribute to the government here for giving refuge to almost 200,000 people, including some 47,000 arriving in the last two weeks.
4 January 2013
The conflict in Syria has led thousands of Syrians to flee seeking safety in neighbouring Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Iraq and Egypt. Food is one of their priority needs and WFP is responding with an operation to assist refugees in all five countries. WFP is providing assistance mainly through food vouchers redeemable in local shops as well as direct food distributions in some areas where beneficiaries cannot access markets easily.

Brain metastases in HER2-positive breast cancer: The evolving role of lapatinib
ABSTRACT Due to improvements in diagnosis and systemic therapy, brain metastases are an increasingly common cause of morbidity and mortality for patients with advanced breast cancer. The incidence of symptomatic brain metastases among women with metastatic breast cancer ranges from 10% to 16%. The HER2 receptor, which is overexpressed in approximately 25% of all breast cancers, is an important risk factor for the development of central nervous system metastases. Surgery and radiation therapy are the primary approaches to the treatment of brain metastases but new chemotherapy and biological agents promise to play an important role in the future management of central nervous system disease. This article reviews the epidemiology, current treatment options and recent advances in the field, with a focus on HER2-positive disease and the emerging role of lapatinib for the treatment and prevention of brain metastases.
Full-textDOI: · Available from: Gianluca Tomasello, Sep 11, 2015
- SourceAvailable from: Ozlem Yersal
- "On the other hand, prevention from BM is important too. Many risk factors are associated with the development of BM, such as young age, hormone receptor-negative primary tumors, HER2+ tumors, and heavy burden of disease (large primary tumors, lymph node involvement, prior lung, liver, or bone metastases, increased number of metastatic sites, and elevated lactate dehydrogenase [LDH] levels) [1]. In breast cancer patients with high risk of brain metastasis, wholebrain irradiation may be studied in controlled clinical trials. "
Article: Nearly Complete Response of Brain Metastases from HER2 Overexpressing Breast Cancer with Lapatinib and Capecitabine after Whole Brain Irradiation[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Trastuzumab treatment does not prevent intracranial seeding and is largely ineffective for established central nervous system metastasis in HER2 overexpressing breast cancer patients. Combination therapy of lapatinib and capecitabine may be an effective treatment option for brain metastasis of HER2-positive breast cancer. We report a patient with breast cancer overexpressing HER-2 where brain metastases were successfully treated with radiation and a combination of lapatinib and capecitabine.Case Reports in Oncological Medicine 09/2013; 2013:234391. DOI:10.1155/2013/234391
- "The median survival from first admission with brain metastases was only a few months, also in line with other studies (Lin and Winer, 2007; Tomasello et al, 2010). Breast cancer characteristics associated with more aggressive disease, ER and PR negativity and HER-2 overexpressing tumours (Gutierrez and Schiff, 2011; Stuckey, 2011) have been associated with an increased risk of brain metastases (Lin and Winer, 2007; Tomasello et al, 2010). Adjuvant anti-HER-2 antibody treatment, trastuzumab was introduced in 2000 and was gradually adopted in Sweden. "
Article: Incidence and time trends of brain metastases admissions among breast cancer patients in Sweden[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: While treatment for breast cancer has been refined and overall survival has improved, there is concern that the incidence of brain metastases has increased. We identified patients in Sweden with incident breast cancer 1998-2006 in the National Cancer Register, and matched these to the National Patient Register to obtain information on hospital admissions for distant metastases. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were computed with Cox regression as estimates of relative risk. Among 50 528 breast cancer patients, 696 (1.4%) were admitted with brain metastases during median 3.5 years of follow-up. Admissions for other metastases were found in 3470 (6.9%) patients. Compared with the period 1998-2000, patients diagnosed with breast cancer 2004-2006 were at a 44% increased risk of being admitted with brain metastases (HR 1.44, 95% CI 1.13-1.85). The incidence of admissions with brain metastases in breast cancer patients was increasing in the mid-2000s in Sweden. These findings support a true increase in incidence of brain metastases among breast cancer patients.British Journal of Cancer 04/2012; 106(11):1850-3. DOI:10.1038/bjc.2012.163 · 4.84 Impact Factor
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Lapatinib is an oral dual erbB 1/2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits human EGF receptor 2 (HER2) and blocks the EGF receptor. Studies have shown that in patients with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer that is resistant to trastuzumab, the addition of lapatinib to capecitabine improves progression-free survival and appears to lengthen overall survival. Furthermore, lapatinib has been studied in patients with involvement of the CNS and has been associated with stable disease and some responses. Its combination with letrozole provided an improvement in progression-free survival compared with single-agent letrozole in women with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. More recently, data suggested that the combination of lapatinib with trastuzumab significantly improves overall survival in women with metastatic breast cancer compared with single-agent lapatinib. Current indications in the USA for the use of lapatinib are for the treatment of metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer, both in combination with capecitabine in patients who have received taxane, anthracycline and traztuzumab, and in combination with letrozole for postmenopausal patients with hormone receptor- and HER2-overexpressing breast cancer. Common side effects of lapatinib include diarrhea and rash. Studies to date have found a less than 2% risk for cardiotoxicity, although most cardiac events that occurred during the studies were not attributed to lapatinib. It is important to consider that most of the patients in existing studies had already been treated with trastuzumab with no significant cardiotoxicity; therefore, future studies will show how trastuzumab-naive patients tolerate lapatinib. Ongoing research is evaluating the role of lapatinib in the adjuvant setting as a single agent or in combination with trastuzumab.Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy 08/2010; 10(8):1171-82.

Koolaid, you should not be in the stock market. Based on your posts, you are pretty young, so you can afford to lose money because you have a lot of years of working ahead of you so you can make it back. Do me a favor though. When you lose a big chunk here, go back and educate yourself to find out why a company with "$2.25 Billion in liabilities" continues to go higher while paying a hefty dividend to it's shareholders and buying back shares. Ask yourself where they are getting the cash to pay a 4.5% dividend and how they can afford to allocate 500 million for stock buybacks. Once you figure that out, you will realize why you are losing. Knowledge is power son.

Nom Nom Paleo kicks off with a fresh introduction to Paleo eating, taking readers on a guided tour of author Michelle Tam's real-food strategies for stocking the kitchen, saving time, and maximizing flavors. Also, sprinkled throughout the book are enlightening features on feeding kids, packing nutritious lunches, boosting umami, and much more.
But the heart of this book is Michelle's award-winning recipes, 50 percent of which are brand-new — even to diehard fans who own her bestselling iPad cookbook app. Readers can start by marrying their favorite ingredients with building blocks like Sriracha Mayonnaise, Louisiana Remoulade, and the infamous Magic Mushroom Powder. These basic recipes lay the foundation for many of the fabulous delights in the rest of the book including Eggplant "Ricotta" Stacks, Crab Louie, and Devils on Horseback.
There's something for everyone in this cookbook, from small bites like Apple Chips and Kabalagala (Ugandan plantain fritters) to family-sized platters of Coconut Pineapple "Rice" and Siu Yoke (crispy roast pork belly). Crave exotic spices? You won't be able to resist the fragrant aromas of Fast Pho or Mulligatawny Soup. In the mood for down-home comforts? Make some Yankee Pot Roast or Chicken Nuggets drizzled with Lemon Honey Sauce. When a quick weeknight meal is in order, Nom Nom Paleo can show you how to make Crispy Smashed Chicken or Whole-Roasted Branzini in less than 30 minutes. And for a cold treat on a hot day, nothing beats Mocha Popsicles or a two-minute Strawberry Banana Ice Cream.
Healthy cooking doesn't mean sacrificing flavor. This book gives you "Paleo with personality," and will make you excited to play in the kitchen again.

First of all, for us we found the Hotel de Hallen quite difficult to find on first arrival! It would have been useful if the hotel would post directions on their website :)
Anyway, once we found it we were very impressed with our welcome and the hotel as a whole :) The design and decor is very stylish!
We arrived a little early to check in but the lady on reception gave us an excellent map (which has been our lifeline for the whole trip!) and pointed out all the areas of interest in Amsterdam, which was very helpful for first timers like us. When we got back later on, our luggage had already been delivered to our room :)
We really enjoyed our stay, our room was very comfortable and the staff very helpful :) The only slight issue we had was that our room didn't have an outside window so was quite dark, so if that is a problem for you I would check your room allocation before you arrive, I imagine rooms with windows maybe slightly more expensive?
Overall a great hotel which was well worth finding! Thank you for a lovely stay :)

ruthhill74Yelm, WAAge: 35-44Gender: female3 Stars Out Of 5Wished I Could Have Liked It MoreDecember 29, 2013ruthhill74Yelm, WAAge: 35-44Gender: femaleQuality: 3Value: 3Meets Expectations: 3I had hoped I would like this book better than I did, but unfortunately, it was not to be. I love dogs, and the beginning of the book was fine. However, once our heroine had Rufus (the dog) "talk," I really lost interest. I know that we tend to think that our animals talk, but this was just too much for me to accept.
There were some points of the book that did interest me. I was intrigued when Mary first got Rufus. And then about the middle of the book, there was an area that certainly got my attention. And her entire discussion of her love life and views on dating were pretty intriguing.
I really struggled with the fact that she continued to have Rufus pray to God for her. Eventually, that stops, but I felt like Mary never truly finds her faith again. The gospel message is truly lost in this book. It is neat that God brings along "signs" to show her that she is doing the right thing.
The book is clean, and the message is pure. For that reason alone, many people will probably enjoy the book. Rufus is certainly a cute, smart dog, but I just struggled to truly embrace this book.
I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated in any way, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.

I bought it before and it made the circuit so much I lost touch of my original. So, bought another to send to my friend who lost her husband. The book brings consolation to the hurting, but in all things Our Father is the All in All.
VicsMediaRoomIrvine, CAAge: 55-65Gender: male5 Stars Out Of 5A Talking Dog and Emotional HealingMay 25, 2013VicsMediaRoomIrvine, CAAge: 55-65Gender: maleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5Jim Kraus in his new book "The Dog That Talked to God" published by Abingdon Press takes us into the life of Mary Fassler.
From The Back Cover: Sometimes the least expected can be the most amazing
Recently widowed Mary Fassler buys a Miniature Schnauzer, Rufus, and her world is turned sideways in the midst of her grief. It seems that Rufus speaks. And not just to her. He also talks to God.
When Rufus begins sharing advice that could result in major changes, Mary gets the feeling the pooch might not be steering her in the right direction. Or, is she just afraid to take the leap and discover something she desperately needs? Only Rufus...and God...knows.
"The Dog That Talked to God" reminded me of the old Disney movies, you know the kind the used to make when Walt Disney was alive. Rufus is a joy and I wish that I could have a dog like him. Mary is a complicated human being, aren't we all?, and God wants to heal her damaged heart and uses Rufus to accomplish this. "The Dog That Talked to God" is about grief and how not healing from grief can cause a person not to move forward and fulfill destiny. Mr. Kraus has given us a wonderful story where he can explore the pain of losing your spouse and child and how we blame God and withdraw, both from Him and the world. To heal from this kind of trauma it takes the love of God but we have to let Him. Sometimes it takes a Rufus to accomplish this. Besides if you are a dog lover you already know you talk to your dog and doesn't it seem that your dog understands? "The Dog That Talked to God" is a highly enjoyable adventure. I look forward to more from the talented Mr. Kraus.

debsMaineAge: 35-44Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5The Dog that talked to GODMay 15, 2013debsMaineAge: 35-44Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5The story of Mary, a recent widow and Rufus the dog that becomes her companion and sounding board from GOD. Mary is going through a very difficult time of her husband and son being killed in a tragic car accident. As she gets Rufus she starts to realize how much in life you consider material and self centered issues and what is really the purpose of what GOD wants for you. When Mary and Rufus go for walks, that is when she talks to Rufus and then one day and everyday after Rufus starts to answer her back, sometimes he will even ask her questions. that leaves Mary to face reality. It made me smile, as a dog person you sometimes in life look at your own dog and wonder what they are thinking. This book gives a take on what they are thinking, many times I have made my own mind up as to what they are thinking, but this story puts it into perspective.
I would recommend this delightful book, it is different and so enjoying. If you are a dog lover, you will LOVE this book and if you are not a dog lover you will get a whole new insight on dogs, GODS creations and maybe become a dog lover. Everyone should read this book.

MarianneWanham, AlbertaAge: 55-65Gender: female4 Stars Out Of 5more than meets the eyeMay 9, 2013MarianneWanham, AlbertaAge: 55-65Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5Jim Kraus is not only a great writer, he also thinks outside the norm, and, is a dog person. Has your dog ever talked to you? Yes? See, that is not fantasy, it is reality. Well, maybe dogs do not talk in audible words, but those of us that have dogs are sure to see the expressions of Rufus in the actions and looks of our own dogs and it is not that much a stretch of our imagination to figure that dogs talk. We all know how intelligent these friends of ours are. Now that I have told you that, I will tell you that I found this book hard to connect to. Perhaps it was only that the Point of View was first person, and that is a personal thing. This fact does not stop me from picking up another one of his books and enjoying it. The story is well told, and completely realistic (well, i think that even those readers that are not dog lovers will think that, except for that little bit about a dog being able to talk in human voice that humans can understand). Jim does a great job of bringing out the aspects of grief....from being angry at God, to closure.
Thank you to Litfuse Publications who provided a free book in exchange for an honest review. A positive critique was not required. The opinions stated are my own.

Review: Peter Barrickman at the Green Gallery
A stone is placed on the end of a garden hose. A pattern of water blossoms forth from under it. Another stone's surface would produce different fluid forms in the water. Peter Barrickman used this analogy to describe his move from 631 Center St, which tragically burned along with many other artists' spaces in July, to his new studio. His creativity is the water issuing from the hose, the rock his new digs. His artwork is different. The painter Peter Barrickman is changed.
Deluge is also an appropriate description of my meeting with the artist himself. We were joined by Mary Louise and artist Santiago Cucullu to talk about his recent show at the Green Gallery East, called "Guesthouse". For an hour we dug into references, ideas and reflections. Barrickman has a fierce intellect and an artist's eye. Everything is magnified. His thoughts on, well, anything are apt, deep and weird. »Read Full Blog Post

Banner weeks ahead for Wisconsin books, including the Scott Walker vs. unions faceoff
In the next few weeks, a bounty of nonfiction books by Wisconsin writers will be published, including an account by two Journal Sentinel reporters of the kerfuffle that began in Madison in March 2011, when Gov. Scott Walker and public employe unions battled over changes in state law that ultimately scuttled public employee bargaining rights.
"More than They Bargained For: Scott Walker, Unions, and the Fight for Wisconsin," by Jason Stein and Patrick Marley, will go on sale circa March 22 at local bookstores and online book vendors. Published by the University of Wisconsin Press, "More Than They Bargained For" offers a detailed play-by-play account of the Madison drama, including the Capitol occupation by protestors and the runaway Democratic legislators. Stein and Marley, who work out of the Journal Sentinel's Madison bureau, have added fresh reporting and interviewing to the work they did on the spot. The reporters will have a book launch event 7 p.m. March 26 at Boswell Book Co., 2559 N. Downer Ave. »Read Full Blog Post(14)

Hernanes has insisted that he is happy at Lazio amidst rumours that he's stalling on negotiating a new contract.
"I've had no contact with Lazio about my contract," the Brazilian international told the media in his homeland. "It expires in June 2015…
"The rumours about my future are news to me. I really didn't know anything about these stories until today."
Whispers were suggesting that the versatile midfielder was on the transfer radar of Italian giants Inter.
The former Sao Paulo player, 27, has scored six goals in 16 League games for the capital club so far this season.
Hernanes is thought to be earning €1.8m a season at the Stadio Olimpico.

Why Are Some People So Intent On Making Netflix More Like Traditional TV?
from the when-evolution-isn't-good-enough dept
Case in point, Wired complained a few years ago that Netflix wasn't complete until it implemented a channel surfing feature, because having the choice of a mountain of different options was apparently too difficult. Similarly there's been seemingly endless lamentation over the last few years about how Netflix's choice to release seasons all at once is bad because it kills the "water cooler marketing buzz" created as office workers prattle about each week's show plotlines. Of course, as noted previously, people apparently love to binge watch, and there's absolutely nothing wrong in giving the people what they want.
Still, the idea that Netflix isn't "cable enough" never seems to go out of style. The latest example comes courtesy of Rex Sorgatz over at The Message, who not only laments that Netflix has destroyed the "water cooler" chatter that helps drive show marketing buzz, but complains that Netflix's release style ensconces him in a cocoon of spoiler paranoia, from whence he's unable to hold any conversations about TV programs without spoilers:
"But you see the problem: We can't talk about buzzy Netflix shows because our schedules are out of sync. The rough expectations for knowing if your friends are on episode 12 or episode 1 have been destroyed. Netflix thinks it has performed a noble act by releasing the entire season en masse, but it has actually wreaked havoc on the best part of television: talking about television."Has Netflix really done that? Really? It seems to me Netflix is giving people what they want -- a whole lot of content to be consumed on whatever schedule people see fit. As Frank Underwood himself noted in 2013, dumping an entire season at once gives viewers the power to do whatever they want. Still, Sorgatz proceeds to argue that this is a "problem" in desperate need of fixing, and as such, he's offered this solution:
"This, I propose, is what Netflix, Amazon, and HBO should do. They need to bring back the schedule, updated to modern lives. That schedule should be: Every day, a new episode is released, always at the same time, and blind to time zones. Imagine if House of Cards had played out over two weeks, like a mini-series...Can you imagine? The conversation around this viewing window would be massive, almost unbearable. Fans would feel compelled to catch up every night, so as to be involved in tomorrow's discussion. And if you missed a day or two, catching up would be painless."Except if you think about it, that actually solves nothing. If I'm able to watch the show on Tuesday night but you've got an evening cheese club meeting, I'll still spoil the show for you when we meet on Wednesday. Here's a crazier idea: we just accept that Netflix is very different from the traditional cable experience (which is still available if that's your preference by the way), and that this is a good thing? It seems so much simpler than endlessly complaining that Netflix isn't more like a cable TV industry most of us agree is in desperate need of a sharp kick in the ass.

DEFINITION of 'Tip Income'
Income that a service professional earns that is not part of a regular wage. Tip income can come from a gratuity left by a customer at a restaurant, money received by a porter for carrying luggage to a hotel room, or from other activities that are not covered by the employer. Tip income can be considered a secondary form of income.
BREAKING DOWN 'Tip Income'
Some businesses, such as restaurants, assume that employees will earn tips and will thus provide a lower hourly wage rate. If an individual collects tips over a given amount during a calendar month, it must be reported to the employer and to the government, since taxes have not been withheld like they are for normal income.

No rest for the wicked apparently, so on with the hiking boots and hit the road.
We caught a bus down to La Punt before heading up and up and up some more into the mountains until we got to a mountain hut called Escha Hut. The weather was really hot and I think we were both on our limits of endurance.

After creating three successful New York steakhouses and a fast-casual eatery named after his favorite dead relative, Old Brookville restaurateur Willie Degel can add reality TV star to his résumé.
As the star of "Restaurant Stakeout," a new show on the Food Network that uses hidden cameras to help reveal flaws in restaurants' food, service and management, Degel helps the owners make the necessary improvements to right the wrongs that turn up.
On Wednesday night's episode, Degel helped a family-owned pizzeria in New City struggling with an unprofessional staff. For the rest of the six-episode season he comes to the aid of restaurants in Williston Park and Las Vegas. So far, Degel said, the show is a hit.
Degel, 44, owned his first restaurant when he was 21. That place was called Cocktails on Main Street in Flushing, and it became a popular watering hole with a small kitchen where Degel himself prepared about 20 items and offered what he called "old school, personalized service."
A few years later, Degel parlayed his success at Cocktails by opening Uncle Jack's Steakhouse in Bayside in 1996.
Named after his Great Uncle Jack, a former hiring boss for the longshoremen's union, the steakhouse eventually spawned two more Uncle Jack's locations on West 56th Street off 5th Avenue in Manhattan, and on 9th Avenue at 34th Street in Hell's Kitchen, gregarious Jack's old stomping grounds. Degel's latest concept, Jack's Shack, opened in Glen Head late last year.
Since the Restaurant Stakeout series began last month, Degel's phone has been blowing up.
"A lot of people are calling me," he said. "They're asking, 'Willie can you help me with my place?'"

Bones and Sleepy Hollow are having a cross over so I would think they would need to air the same time.
Why January , when filming began in July 2014 and aired in September / October 2014 in the USA. And us fans in the U.K. Have to wait nearly 4 months which is about 2/3 through the USA air time.
what ever happened to the tv show chuck
Sky Living is saying Bones will air in January 2014 !! Yay !!
when is bones season nine on uk tv im a huge fan have all the dvds please if any one no's email me ill be very happy and grateful. thank

My favorite programme. When will season 9 be shown on sky living in united kingdom ?
Keith ur a top bloke nice 1
I have been looking to see if season 7 of Bones is going to be shown sometime in 2013, only started to watch it near end of last year through repeats and have been recording season 8 to watch when I finally see season 7. Cannot find any info as to when or if season 7 is to be repeated in 2013?
I know this is a bit late but on sky living every night it repeats all the seasons its on season 6 rite now so it should repeat season 7 in 2 weeks or so hope it helps
