Lodge activities, hiking and bicycles
When you decide not to explore the region, various hiking routes, cycling, fun- and creative activities can keep you busy for days at the lodge.
Boabab hike and Cycling
For our energetic guests we have various short hiking routes at the lodge. The one-and-a-half-hour circular Baobab-route up the mountainis the most popular. Our local Boabab expert, dr Sarah Venter measured the girth of this Boabab tree at 11.4m. "Due to its tallness and position on the southern side of the mountain where it would get more rain than the Boabab's more natural habitat north of the mountain, I estimate it is between 500 and 600 years old. It is common for outlying trees like this one to be associated with human habitation. I was not surprised to see the archeological site next to this tree, it looks as though it would have been used for a meeting place or Khoro – the traditional meeting place of a Venda Chief with his headmen – for the more recent occupants of the site," says dr Venter.
We also have bicycles at the lodge and offer easy-going guided cycling tours visiting villages like Tshikota and Tshiozwi in the Western Soutpansberg mountains. Exciting hiking and cycling opportunities in the wider Soutpansberg-area can be arranged on request. The local Mountain cycling club, has marked five easy to moderate routes for beginners and moderate riders in the mountain above Makhado/Louis Trichardt.
Fun activities for children and adults
Madi a Thavha provide fun activities for adults and their children either in the comfort of the lodge or on tour in rural villages. This can include woodcarving with some of the master-carvers making jewelery of handmade, recycled, glass beads, creating and decorating traditional clay pots in villages or to make music with the artists at their home-studios. Children can test their physical skills on a gum-pole playground at the lodge or figure out our activity boxes' imaginative content at the resource centre. A babysitter can be arranged when parents would like to enjoy dinner by themselves (we then serve the meal for the children in the family's suite). Toys and games are always at hand. Creative children can also join the Madi a Thavha Design team to make crafty items in the Textile & Design Studio at the lodge.

These cars had a lot of problems with wires getting pinched or cut inside of the tilt steering coloumn, which is a solid tube, there are also problem with the multifunction switch in the column. You most likely will need to replace the column. But the only way to be sure is to have it diagnosed by a competent tech. You could try to wiggle the column and see if anything starts to work. The window is probably just a coincedence.

A Detroit firefighter is recovering this evening after an attic floor collapsed underneath him and a piece of equipment pierced his cheek.
"It was a freak accident," Deputy Fire Commissioner Jonathan Jackson said.
Jackson said 33-year-old Adam Mlinarich was crawling through the attic of a home on the 4000 block of McGraw, near Livernois and Warren, checking for hot spots when the floor gave way. It was just before 6 p.m., and firefighters were nearly finished putting out a fire at the house. ...

Adrian Clayborn the 20th pick
|04.28.11 at 10:14 pm ET
The Buccaneers selected Iowa defensive end Adrian Clayborn 20th overall Thursday night.
Clayborn is not the most scheme-diverse guy. At under 6-foot-3 and 281 pounds, it's 4-3 end or bust for Clayborn. Asked at the combine whether teams were talking about him playing linebacker, the very comical lineman paused and said, "I mean, jokingly." If Gerald McCoy can step it up in his second season, this could be a feared defensive line.

BELVIDERE — Michael Houselog will remain Belvidere School District's superintendent.
BELVIDERE — Michael Houselog will remain Belvidere School District's superintendent.
The Dubuque (Iowa) School Board chose its interim, Stan Rheingans, on Wednesday to fill the superintendent role. Houselog was one of three finalists.
"I'm very interested in fulfilling all of my contract here in Belvidere and continuing to have my kids in the Belvidere School District," Houselog said.
He has served as Belvidere's superintendent since 2007, and his contract expires in 2015. His credentials include serving as the superintendent of the North Boone School District and Carbon Cliff-Barstow Community School District in Barstow.
Houselog said he applied for the position to live closer to his mother and children, who are from the Dubuque area. He conducted his final interview with the board Sept. 12.
He plans to stay in Illinois for the next 10 years and would be honored if "Belvidere would see fit to hire" him.
Dubuque School Board Vice President Tami Ryan said school leaders were particularly impressed by Houselog's innovative programming ideas, such as establishing college credit courses.
"We were fortunate to have three strong candidates, and it was a tough decision that we had to make," she said. "In the end, we felt that Stan has a vision and momentum within the district that the board felt they could move forward with."

PC games sales up 230%, Console game sales down 28%
|3 years ago
|class of '07 - away - #23
This has to do with a completely different article he posted without putting a source and credit to the original author.

|class of '07 - away - #30
You do understand the difference between sals and subcriptions right? and you do realize steam sales alone went up over 100% in 2011 making over 500 million first half of 2011 and increasing 100% this year? matter a fact steam sales % has increased around 100% every year for the last 7 years and do you know how many MMO's steam sales? i will give you a hint. You ready? 0.
That is JUST steam, this isn't including amazon's digital service which is huge right now or GOG or D2D or retail disc, how about Diablo 3? over 6.3 million copies sold, half that was day one and those numbers were from months ago.
You are the very definition of dumbass and if it wasn't for MMO's? have you seen MMO's lately? they are a dying breed, they are nothing compared to what they were 5-6+ years ago. PC gaming continues to increase because it's cheap and accessible.
most countries outside NA do MMOs for farming, it's a business but you honestly believe that WOW is keeping PC alive you are dumber then the guy i was talking to. This isn't 2002 or 2005, MMO's aren't as big as you think.

Im not surprised, the P.C community cant do anything really but go up at this point, there progressively better than consoles, and there only flaw has been the price.
"And with the release of Blizzards Diablo III, May also saw the first time since July 2010 that the top-selling game overall was a PC-only title. That boosted PC video games sales up year-over-year to 230% or $80 million."
but if u read the article the only reason there was such a high increase was because of ONE NERD-SUCKING game. Needless to say im not impressed.

Shut up
Either way fu*k consoles they hold back gaming so much

|class of '07 - away - #38
I am a.ssuming you don't know what the fu*k you are talking about since you talk about other countries when this has only to do with NA sales, a F2P or normal MMO in korea or china or chakalaka has nothing to do with the state of PC gaming. MMOs aren't keeping PC gaming alive because MMOs aren't as big as they used to be in NA/EU. And these sales reflect NA/EU.

Birth Control Health Center
Is Your Birth Control as Safe as You Think?
But Merck and other scientists dispute claims that NuvaRing poses a higher risk than other contraceptives. In NuvaRing's product information pamphlet, Merck acknowledges the findings, but adds, "Data from additional studies have not shown this twofold increase in risk. It is unknown if NuvaRing has a different risk of [blood clots] than second-generation oral contraceptives." That position infuriates NuvaRing's critics. "Nine years after the product was put on the market, they still say the risk is unknown. To say, 'We just don't know' is not sufficient," says Thomas Lamb, a North Carolina — based attorney whose firm represents more than 50 women around the country who have filed suit against NuvaRing, Yaz, and other third- and fourth-generation contraceptives.
Among those wanting answers is Robert Bozicev, 37, of Tom's River, New Jersey. His 32-year-old wife, Jackie, had begun using NuvaRing shortly after the birth of their daughter in 2007. One Friday morning, as he stood in the kitchen making breakfast for their two kids, he heard her puttering about in their second-floor bathroom. As she was about to step into the shower, she called his name. He answered her, preoccupied with their son, 2, who was demanding another waffle. After she cried for him a second time, barely able to get out his name, he dashed upstairs and found her on the floor, unable to breathe. "She was in a lot of pain, rolling around, trying to get onto her stomach," he says. "My son was there, watching the whole thing." To his horror, Jackie started turning blue.
When an ambulance arrived, emergency techs tried to restart her breathing. Bozicev was gripped with terror. Doctors continued to try to revive her in the hospital but eventually had to give up. She died that day. The cause of death: massive pulmonary thromboemboli due to deep vein thrombosis. In other words, she died from a blood clot. Anxious to learn more about what had happened, Bozicev searched online and came upon reports linking NuvaRing to an increased risk of clots. Knowing Jackie had been healthy before she started using the device (she wasn't overweight and didn't smoke), Bozicev concluded that NuvaRing was to blame, and filed a wrongful-death suit against Merck in March 2008. "Even to this day — and this is three and a half years later — I still can't believe it happened," he says. Jackie's clothes remain in her closet. He is too heartbroken to take them out.
NuvaRing isn't the only pill-free contraceptive beset by litigation. When Ortho Evra hit pharmacy shelves in 2002, it was the first birth-control patch of its kind. Its selling point: Simply slap a Band-Aid-like adhesive on your arm, stomach, or back each week. Within two years, sales had swelled to nearly $400 million. But soon after, studies emerged indicating that the blood concentrations of estrogen in Ortho Evra users might be much higher than previously thought, resulting in a greater risk of clots. That's when the lawsuits piled up. In November 2005, Ortho Evra, under an agreement with the FDA, added a black-box warning to its packages stating that patch users are exposed to roughly 60 percent more estrogen than the typical pill user, resulting in a potential "approximate doubling of risk of serious blood clots." The warning also stated that the risk might not increase at all, but it was still enough to scare off doctors. By year-end 2010, Ortho Evra's sales had fallen 69 percent to $124 million.

Disney to make new 'Star Wars' films, buy Lucas co

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A decade since George Lucas said "Star Wars" was finished on the big screen, a new trilogy under new ownership is destined for theaters after The Walt Disney Co. announced Tuesday that it would buy Lucasfilm Ltd. from him for $4.05 billion.
The seventh movie, with a working title of "Episode 7," is set for release in 2015. Episodes 8 and 9 will follow. The trilogy will continue the story of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Princess Leia beyond "Return of the Jedi," the third film released and the sixth in the saga. After that, Disney plans a new "Star Wars" movie every two or three years. Lucas will serve as creative consultant in the new movies.
"I'm doing this so that the films will have a longer life," Lucas, the 68-year-old creator of the series and sole owner of Lucasfilm, said in an interview posted on YouTube. "I get to be a fan now ... I sort of look forward to it. It's a lot more fun actually, than actually having to go out into the mud and snow."
Disney CEO Bob Iger said Lucasfilm had already developed an extensive storyline on the next trilogy, and Episode 7 was now in early-stage development. He said he talked with Lucas about buying the company from him a year and a half ago, but they didn't decide on a deal until very recently as Lucas set in motion his retirement.
"The last 'Star Wars' movie release was 2005's 'Revenge of the Sith' — and we believe there's substantial pent-up demand," Iger said.
The blockbuster deal announced Tuesday will see Disney pay half the acquisition price in cash and half in newly issued stock. The company expects it to add to earnings in 2015 and said that as an example of its earnings power, Lucasfilm made $550 million in operating income the year "Sith" came out. Along with the cash, Lucas will end up owning about 40 million Disney shares, which is about 2.2 percent of the 1.83 billion shares that will be in circulation when the transaction closes. Disney did not say when that would happen.

(AP Photo/Chris Pizzello, File)
The deal includes Lucasfilm's prized high-tech production companies, Industrial Light & Magic and Skywalker Sound, as well as rights to the "Indiana Jones" franchise. Lucasfilm will continue to be headquartered in San Francisco's Presidio park, and employees are to remain in their current locations. Disney has its headquarters in Burbank, Calif., near Los Angeles.

Question: Which do you use more often?

I use ALL peppers... even purple! I grow and use over 15 varieties (sweet and hot). One of my sons is allergic to tomatoes, so I use roasted peppers often where you would use tomatoes. (Think roasted Red Pepper Sauce instead of spaghetti sauce.)
the only one in our family that ate bell pepper was our now over the rainbow bridge guinea pig.

Re: iPhone 4 with LTE technology support already built-in??? in response to yhlim_realtorThe iPhone 4 does not have 4G radios built in, yet. This because the true 4G networks aren't up and running yet. By the end of the year, they will be.
For now... some are calling this iPhone 4 a "3.5 G iPhone 4" because people have noticed, as have i, that both upload and download speeds are FASTER than previous iPhones! This because Apple included the new UMTS/GSM chips that support faster upload and download speeds. The networks don't fully support it yet, because upgrades are currently being made. When they do, we'll see even faster 3G speeds on our iPhone 4's.
I've noticed speeds of over 3 and 4Mbs download and over 2Mbps upload speeds here in LA where i live. Quite amazing to already get a "taste" of future speeds to come

Changes to college admission policy in Texas may be leaving some out - namely Hispanics, according to a study conducted by Princeton researchers Dr. Angel Harris and Dr. Maria Tienda.
Under Texas's new Top 10 Percent program, public universities must enroll students based on their performance in comparison to their high school classmates, rather than with all applicants. The new policy ensures that high school students at the top of their class are admitted, with aims to enroll more students from "poor communities."
But some argue that this policy is not as effective as the prior affirmative action at selecting a racially and ethnically diverse student body.
After analyzing administrative data from the two "most selective public institutions", University of Texas in Austin (UT) and Texas A&M (TAMU), Princeton researchers Harris and Tienda found "an annual decrease in Hispanic applicants of up to 309 at UT, and nearly 500 at TAMU," according to a press release for Springer's journal, "Race and Social Problems".
Harris and Tienda concluded in their study, that the key to ensuring diversity may be cultivating a "college-going culture" in Hispanic communities:
"Our results indicate that it is more helpful to direct attention away from the seemingly irresolvable differences about race or class-rank preferences, and instead encourage greater numbers of students to actually apply for admission. Cultivating college-going cultures at under-resourced high schools is a potential high-impact, relatively low cost, short-term strategy to raise Hispanic college application rates."
William Powers Jr., the president of the University of Texas in Austin told The New York Times that a quarter of their admissions are still based on a "holistic review" of candidates, as opposed to the Top 10 Percent program. Such admission choices take into account factors aside from class rank, including "test scores, essays, activities, socioeconomic status, [and] cultural background."
"If a company had 100 applications for five positions and just took the five with the highest grade point average without looking at anything else, I think people would be stunned," Powers told The New York Times. "Grades are important, but there are other important indicia, like leadership and diligence."
But not everyone thinks Powers' approach to admissions is fair.
Abigail Fisher and Rachel Michalewicz hope to overturn a 2003 U.S. Supreme Court opinion allowing the use of race in the admissions after they were denied admission to UT in 2008. They both believe they were rejected because they are white.
Their brief claims that the UT policy, "benefits African-American and Hispanic students and consequently works to the detriment of White and Asian-American students." The Supreme Court will rule on their case next fall.
Some believe the Top 10 Percent program is a fairer policy than affirmative action, and still allows for a diverse student body in Texas universities without relying explicitly on racial quotas.
Critics of Top 10 Percent including Princeton researchers Harris and Tienda say the policy has largely failed to usher in racial diversity once seen in the state of Texas.
"Affirmative action or the use of racial quotas for college admissions remain the most efficient policy to diversify college campuses, even in highly segregated states like Texas," they concluded.

If the air mass sensor is working but not in the range of normal then you might have a vacuum leak somewhere.

Why I'm Taking a Year to Learn and Do the Things I Give a Damn About
Thanks to the brand new GOOD Fellowship, Manasa Yeturu\'s spending the next year focusing on entrepreneurship education to empower girls.
of adventure, connection, and change making.
Thanks to the brand new GOOD Fellowship, Manasa Yeturu\'s spending the next year focusing on entrepreneurship education to empower girls.
Fantastic! I totally agree with you that our education system is so limited. My personal experience is that I'm learning a lot more more than my high school and university combined, since I started my not-for-profit. I think teaching our kids to think like entrepreneurs can be great for their creativity, problem solving, communication etc. and I secretly believe that women can make better entrepreneurs. Good on you for following your heart!
Love this. It takes courage to go on an adventure like this, but I'm glad that it sounds like your excitement exceeds your fear. Keep it that way. That's a good place to be in! Have you ever considered working with the Akilah Institute for Women in Rwanda or Burundi? I feel like their work may be right up your alley. If you're interested, I know the founders. Check out their website and feel free to reach out if you want to know more. http://www.akilahinstitute.org/impact/
Manasa: Congratulations on finding a way to pursue something so important, and thank you for your GOOD work! I recently stepped away from a very nice career in alternative energy (wind & solar) because I have been working for many years on a people-powered transmedia project to develop alternative human energy. I can't imagine not doing something that could help so many so easily. I know it's hard to walk away from a good thing, but didn't you feel instantaneous joy and relief (within the fear) to know that you could pursue something so purposeful? Best wishes to you on your journey! I will watch for updates about your experiences.
We are so happy to have you on board, Manasa! What amazing work you are doing!!!
We are so happy that you're on board here at BUILD, Manasa! I am truly inspired by the project you are undertaking and the way that you are documenting your experiences, and I can't wait to see what develops. We love having you at BUILD in East Oakland; please come and spend time with us whenever you are able!!!
What an amazing and inspirational piece. Thank you for sharing. I recently had a similar "a-ha" moment and am working with an afterschool educational program focusing on preparing middle school students for high school, college and their careers. If this program is successful the non-profit I work with will create an entrepreneurship program as well. I currently reside in New Orleans where more than ever the youth needs role models and mentors who give a damn about them and want to see them succeed! I look forward to reading more about your year long apprenticeship and hope one day we could exchange ideas on how to spread this goodness across the world. Kudos to you girl for making a difference.
Thank you for the kudos Kurston and I have to send props your way as well for making a difference in the lives of middle schoolers! Would love to hear more about the program you're working with in New Orleans! I will be starting to mentor sophomores in BUILD's East Oakland site next week - excited to be on the ground and working with students again! I look forward to keeping you posted on my year :)
I had a pleasure reading through your post, Manasa! Quite inspirational, your year-long apprenticeship :) It's not very often that someone has the guts and passion to take a year off to travel to make an impact!
Regarding your third apprenticeship location, have you considered doing an apprenticeship at the mother of all social businesses, Grameen Bank? I was fortunate enough to get to intern with them last summer at their headquarters in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and learned a great deal about social business, microfinance, and the tremendous impact of microcredit on women's empowerment in rural Bangladesh through that internship. You could potentially learn a lot from an experience at Grameen Bank as well.
During that internship, I was also introduced to Grameen Bank's sister companies/social businesses, such Grameen Danone, Grameen Telecom, Grameen Healthcare, and Grameen Shakti, just to name a few. Each of these social businesses strive to solve a different social problem, and there are plenty of other Grameen sister companies that you can look into as well.
Grameen Creative Lab is also looking for a volunteer social business consultant starting January 2014. You would be reporting directly to Nobel laureate and founder of Grameen Bank, Muhammud Yunus.
And lastly, there is Yunus Centre, the think tank for social businesses that occupies the same building as Grameen Bank headquarters. I have a friend who is currently working there, so if you'd like to learn more about what it's like working at Yunus Centre, let me know and I can get you in touch with him!
Hope this helps a bit with your apprenticeship search! If you have any questions, I'd be happy to help!
Cheers and good luck!
Jane Dinh
I had not considered reaching out/working with Grameen but am definitely considering it now - Grameen Creative Lab looks like such an exciting initiative! I would love to be connected to your friend at Yunus centre, and also hear about your experience in Dhaka - I'll reach out to you at the email address you provided. Thank you again for the thoughtful and informative response - much appreciated!
Sounds great, looking forward to chatting with you!
Hi Manasa,
I love your proposal and what you are planning on doing. Check out my multimedia project, Through Her Eyes, focused on telling the stories of girls and women in the developing world and how including sports in their lives empower women and girls to take on challenges in and outside of the home by furthering their education and by becoming more involved in their communities both socially and politically. I'd love to speak with you about the work and how it aligns with the work that you plan on doing during your year of social good. Kind regards,
Liz Stanton

Hi Elizabeth - thank you so much for sharing! Am in awe of the images and stories on Through Her Eyes Blog. I would absolutely love to connect - could you email me at email@example.com or let me know the best way to reach you!
Thank you does not even begin to cover it - since this post has gone up I have received an outpouring of support, encouragement and amazing emails from all over the world. Uganda, Brazil, Romania, Australia ....to name just a few. I am humbled, overwhelmed and most of incredibly grateful. I am working through the emails now so I apologize in advance if I have not gotten back to you already - I promise I will. Thank you again and please keep sending me suggestions of organizations and people I should be talking to and potentially working with. This community is amazing - thank you thank you thank you!
So thrilled that there's been such an amazing response. Go, Manasa, and go, GOOD community!
Manasa, great write and very worth plan.
Would love to talk shop about eship, your goals and tell you a bit about the type of eship education we are promoting. we cover 9-12 and college and generally have a majority of females.
Thanks Will - would love to talk shop and hear about the programs above/ I will reach out soon and glad you like the post + plan!
Execution definitely takes a lot of courage and support, so here's my share of support to you! GOOD LUCK!
Also for your third project, you might want to look into China. China with its "One Child Policy" is encouraging families to forsake their baby girls at birth and this has become a serious problem in the 3rd tier cities and provinces. Here's an article mainly about abortion but touches upon this phenomena in China. ( http://www.lifenews.com/2012/11/02/200-million-girls-killed-in-china-where-are-the-feminists/ ). There's still a preference for boys as China espouses Confucianism, which teaches that only boys can carry on the family name and take care of the family spirits.
I know of a non-profit called the "Starfish Project" that specifically helps girls and women involved in the sex-trade gain financial empowerment by teaching them jewelry crafting skills. It'd be a great opportunity to learn about not only the organization but also about the Chinese culture, which will be of tremendous help if you're thinking about taking your programs to China. As a plus, the Starfish Project mainly operates out of Beijing which also is home to the Silicon Valley of China..since you're into startups ;) Again, g'luck!
Thanks Alice - the support and encouragement are very much appreciated! The StarFish project sounds like an extraordinary organization and I look forward to learning more - thanks so much for the suggestion/context.
Hi! I worked with MarketPlace: Handwork of India, working with women in Mumbai and based in Evanston, IL in the USA. I also worked with New Ventures India. They might be worth checking out. Good luck!!!!! I am no longer interested in working in social enterprise myself, but will keep a look out for your updates!
Thanks RLKGoodChicago - would love to connect and hear more about your experiences at New Ventures India.
Nice. Imagine a world developing with a vast infrastructure sharing entrepreneurial ideas like http://www.ted.com I am trying to develop Culinary Kids =Processed foods are less expensive than healthy foods? http://www.romualdas.net and ART & Entrepreneurism http://www.romualdas.org Yes you are on the right track. Now working on Social Innovation Contests like Marquette University, Wisconsin, has held recently.
Thank you for sharing the links and I love the idea of open source sharing of entrepreneurial ideas - we're definitely headed in that direction :)
Wild idea of spending the last part of your adventure where you are invited.
Just ask and see who would like to share a project with you. I think you will be overwhelmed by the amount of people who truly want to participate. Either way, we can't wait to hear what you choose so do keep us posted!
What a great idea - I'm all about trying new things this year so will put it out there! I've already had some amazing folks reach out - this community is awesome. Thanks for the support and definitely plan on keep you posted :)
This is very inspiring. Thank you!
Thanks for the kind words - this was just an idea a few months ago and now it's actually a reality. Appreciate the support and look forward to keeping the GOOD community in the loop :)
In case Uganda (East Africa) pops up anywhere in your plans, you can always contact Maendeleo Foundation;we will host you and support you in your program.
Good luck
Thanks for your comment - I would love to connect and hear more about Maendeleo! If you could send me an email at email@example.com - I'll followup from there.
Wonderful, Manasa! Good luck and thank you! Maybe sit down for coffee with Molly Barker, another Ashoka fellow and founder of Girls On The Run International. Her focus has certainly been on girls here in the States, but there may well be good stuff there that would work well in other areas of the globe too. Either way, I bet y'all would enjoy spending some time together.
Good for you! Fortune favors the bold!
Thanks JessalynStory! I've heard Molly Barker's name pop up a few times - have you worked with Girls On The Run personally? Seems like an awesome org and I would love to connect with them! And from the amazing support that I've received from the GOOD community it definitely does seem like fortune's on my side :)
I've done a little work with GOTR. I work in community engagement at Wofford College in Spartanburg, SC. Molly has spoken to various audiences in our area, and to our students a couple of times, about social entrepreneurship. She is an amazing, inspiring speaker, full of stories of helping girls step out of what she calls "the Girl Box." You can easily find her on Facebook; and she will likely write you back quickly.
i have chills reading this, manasa! this sounds incredible! i am glad someone is doing something to further this initiative, it sounds like you are off to a great start! is following you here the best way to keep up with what it is you're going to be doing over the next year? as an aspiring social entrepreneur, with a huge heart for empowering the girls of the next generation (i totally went to college with the very naive, yet all too common thought, "this will make my life easier! get a degree, get a job, start a family! easy! yay college!" and i don't think i was the only one), i think this is SO awesome and i can't wait to see where it goes/how i could learn from/be a part of the reach it makes! you rock! :)
Hi Nina! This is my first published online piece so thank you for appreciating it so much - means a lot. I am definitely off to a wonderful start with BUILD - learning so much just in my first week. And I wouldn't be so harsh on yourself that naive "can do" spirit in college is something we should keep as we go through life right? So #rockon and I would love to stay in touch as I go through the year - I'll be updating the GOOD community here and starting a personal blog soon as well so will keep you posted!
Good luck, Manasa! We're all so excited for you! We just launched our third story profiling the GAP P.A.C.E. program this week (http://www.good.is/posts/how-lessons-in-leadership-can-change-the-lives-of-female-garment-workers-sponsored) and it made me think of you and all your hard work on the partnership. Can't wait to hear more about your learnings on the road.
Thanks Elisa! You're the best :) I did see that latest P.A.C.E post - happy to see that the partnership is still going - the program is so phenomenal!
Agree 100% that we need to teach critical thinking skills, not just memorized facts. Have a wonderful trip!
Thanks Brandie!
Way too many people wine about wealth inequality in the nation and not enough want to cure it this way. They just want to steal from the wealth creators.
Awesome! Entrepreneurship is what will save this country!
Entrepreneurship or even the "entrepreneurial mindset" - where you proactively problem-solve in any organization you work for.
you are awesome. i look forward to hearing about your adventures, all you learn and what you do with that knowledge.
Thanks Rae - the encouragement at the start of this journey goes a long way! I look forward to keeping you all in the loop :)
I have been surprised by the lack of women in start-ups. Please be sure to check out these models, though. 1871 in Chicago--really amazing in terms of how they support entrepreneurs. You may also like Bad Girl Ventures. http://www.badgirlventures.com/. Good luck!
Thanks for the suggestions - will definitely check out the orgs you recommended!
Check out the Aflatoun org . . . they have a great entrepreneur-building curriculum for tots to teens.
A fireball ball character from outer space that teaches kids about their rights and financial literacy? Sounds right up my alley - thanks for the recommendation thesearies!
This is amazing! It's really cool to know that programs like PACE are seeing results. Can't wait to hear about your year ahead!
Thank you Erna - I look forward to keeping the GOOD community in the loop on my adventures ahead!

Hi ladies,
This is kind of a spinoff of another thread where working moms were struggling with doing it all.
Well, I am notĀa mom but am seeking advice.Ā DH and I both work F/T. DH is taking 2 classes and I am taking 3.Ā I work first shift and he works third shift.Ā At this point, we do not have children (OMG...I could not imagine how stressed I would be if we did!) but we are hoping to adopt or foster/adopt in the next year or so.Ā
Anyways, lately I have really been struggling with a purpose and getting caught up in the work/sleep/school cycle.ĀIt seems we are always running and never really have quality downtime.Ā I am TIRED of trying to keep up with everything and have truly been questioning my purpose in this world.
PLEASE HEAR THIS - I am not depressed or suicidal or anything.Ā I just feel very strongly that I am not fulfilling my life's purpose.Ā I am wonderful at my job and really excel there but I don't feel as if my work there is contributing to the greater good, kwim?Ā For those who are wondering, I work in the insurance area of a large hospital.
Has anyone struggled with this?Ā I feel like we are working hard and putting all this effort in and we are fortunate to be able to pay our bills and save $ also.ĀBUT I sometimes wonder what's the point of it all?Ā Am I truly making a difference in this world or am I just adding to a company's bottom line?
Any suggestions are welcome!Ā Thanks for listening to my "dear diary" post

We loved walking to the beach, so convenient. The bunk room off the garage was a little quirky and older kids would have no problem but my sons 7 and 9 were a bit...scared at first...

"Absolutely Perfect!"
The home was exactly as described, if not better. Super clean, right across from the beach access, and loaded with everything a family could want. Will definitely stay there again!

"Moffett House"
Overall - 5
Condition - 3, The bunk beds in the garage room need to be repaired and stabilized. There was also a gas smell coming from the fireplace when on. I did let the office know when we checked out about that.

We enjoyed our stay in this home very much. The kitchen was stocked wonderfully with dishes and everything was nice and clean! Thank you.

"Summer Fog Belt"
House very clean and comfortable, easy beach access. We did notice that this location appears to be one in which the fog is "sucked in" from the ocean as opposed to a few miles north or south. A most pleasant stay, even so. Thanks for the "upgrade" and making our comfort a priority.

"Nice family house"
Nice towels and just a short walk to the beach. Quiet, too. The only thing I would add is wifi, so we could have done searches for local places.

The house was absolutely charming. Just a short walk from the beach. We walked the beach every night and I loved listening to the ocean waves. The rental staff were very helpful. I really enjoyed my vacation!

"Great place ...perfect for 6 people!"
Everything was great accept the ants in the kitchen. We barbequed, walked to the beach, watched movies at night and it was close enough to the market for shopping. We had great time . Thanks!

"Spring Break!!"
This house was perfect for us!! Not too big, not too small (except maybe the bunk-bed room was barely big enough for suitcases). There was an issue with ants, not a complete infestation, about a dozen ants every day. I used to live in Walport so I know ants are a problem in early spring, so I didn't freak out. Maybe a lid on the garbage can would help? I would absolutely stay here again!!

Great location, comfy small home, gas fireplace smelled of gas when used, master bedroom tv had no sound on about half of the channels. Excellent stay for the money!

The fireplace has been fixed, not sure about the TV though. Will check it out.

"The Moffett"
Bayshore rentals offers the best rates on the entire coast. This house is older. It feels a little like a visit to grandmas house. Every time I've stayed here the house has been clean and well stocked. As always the ladies at the front office are friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go back.

"Nice house, reasonable rental rate."
The house is located across the street from the beach. We had glimpses of the ocean from the window. There was a nice deck that wrapped around the house and gave shelter from the northern wind.
What I like best was that the kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of pots and pans, dishes, knives, etc. There were plenty of very fluffy towels.
We were just a few blocks from the clubhouse and pool, which we had privileges to use for $5. We opted not to use the pool--might have if there had been a jucuzzi.

"We loved our stay."
Overall we had a great time. A better discription of the bunkroom is needed. I didn't let my kids use it because you have to access it from the garadge not the house. It would have been nice to know the cost of the swimming pool. Kind of pricey.
Response from the manager, Bayshore Rentals LLC - 08/20/2012
We just read the desccription and it says, "separate bunk room off the garage". Yes, you have to walk through the garage or access through the house into the garage to get to the separate bunk room. The pool hours and prices vary summer to summer, we gave you the prices and hours when you checked in with the same piece of paper that had the pool pass.

"Loverly little beach house!"
We loved this little house! the floor plan was comfortable, the appliances are newer and worked well. the walk to the beach is short and walking over that little hill was always exciting! This is one of the most varied (high-low tide) beaches we've ever been to.
We had so much fun and can't wait to get that Christmas bonus so we can rent it for another week next year!!
I will say the two things I don't like about the Moffet house.
1. the shower head needs to be repaired or replaced, it's got a leak in the bottom so it doesn't have good water pressure at all (but it is enough to bathe).
2. there are goatheads...lots of goatheads in the yard (not at the beach)which end up all over the house if you don't leave your shoes on the deck.
Response from the manager, Bayshore Rentals LLC - 08/12/2012
thanks for the suggestion on the shower head, had not heard that before and we will repair it or replace. Those darn thistle things are in a lot of yards this year, we hope they go away, we really don't know how to get rid of them except for burning.

"Great Stay in Oregon!"
We really enjoyed our stay in Oregon at the rental house (Moffet). There were a number of good things about the house: it's location to the ocean (across the road, down the path, over the berm – about a 100 yards); beautiful beach, and lots of drift wood for bon fires; 2 washroom, spacious living area (good for the 8 of us) and bed rooms; garage - this allowed us to park the trailer in it for security, and kept the items out of the weather which worked very well for packing/unpacking; working phone - was able to use my calling card for long distance; the phone books also came in very hand; windows worked for fresh are; thermostat and heaters worked; sufficient hot water; kitchen was well stocked for dished/cutlery. Only thing missing was wireless/internet access. If we are able to come again I would definitely consider Bayshore Rentals!
We also appreciated the helpful and friendly staff, and the use of your washrooms on our way out when dropping off the keys (children are funny:)
Many thanks!

"Everything I was expecting"
Stayed 4 days and loved it. Clean, close to the beach, and very comfortable. My only suggestions are a pizza cutter in the drawer and turning the porch light on (a bit difficult to see it at 11 at night for late checkins without it). Other than that it was perfect. I'll definately be coming back again.

"Affordable Waldport Getaway"
We felt right at home the minute we walked through the door. Everything was clean and well appointed. Quiet, safe neighborhood with beach access literally across the street. My only complaint was the $5 per person per day fee for pool access (including
the non-swimming observer). We were told we'd have pool access, but not about the fees, until we checked in for our stay. But the pool was very nice and warm, and the club staff friendly. We loved our stay and hope to return someday!

"This House is Excellent for the price"
For the price of this rental it was a spectacular deal!! it was right across the street from the public access way to the beach. Nice large deck and they had chairs in the garage for use. We so loved the big screen tv and there was plenty of room for everyone. they also had a separate room in the garage the had a bunkbed in it, the room was small but it was perfect for sleeping, you are out on the ocean most of the day anyways so the room was perfect. they had plenty of towels and had a washer and dryer in the garage. I was very surprised after 7 other people who showered that i had hot water still. It was perfect for what we needed it for, i wish we could have stayed longer. I would recommend this house to anyone that is going to stay down in Walport.
Mike F.
"Very positive first experience at renting."
Property is represented accurately by description and pictures. Good value for the price. A user guide for the LR entertainment components would be helpful. The bunk beds accessed from the garage are in a tiny room but it does have an outside window. Strong smokey smell in the 1/2 bath off the dining room and in the garage. Might have been from two charcoal grills stored in garage.
But a very comfortable feeling home with comfortable queen beds and mirrored closet doors. Cozy living room with gas log fireplace. Well equipped kitchen with newer Whirlpool large appliances. Small south facing deck provided shelter from North winds. Newer Whirlpool W/D in garage. View of ocean is limited to space between ocean front homes across the street. Shoreline is not visible from deck. Beach access path really is just across the street. We enjoyed our short weekend stay and will definitely consider the Moffett home for another stay. Thank you to the Moffetts and Bayshore Rentals.

"Upgrades to Moffett House 2010"
We found this house 6 years ago and we have been back every year since and we have always had a great experience. The property mangager has gone the extra mile in helping us in any way that was needed. The updates that the owners have done have added nice touches and made the stay more accomodating for renters. The location to the beach is great and the deck on the south side of the house is protected from the wind and is always warm for relaxing on. Love the RED door and the Window seat.

"Clean, comfortable, relaxing..."
As always, the Moffett house was immaculate! We loved being able to sit on the deck that wraps around to the south side of the house. It was extremely windy when we were there, but we were well protected from the wind and were able to enjoy the sun! Short walk, easy access to the beach. Only wish we could have brought our dog.

"New Family Tradition"
We will be coming back to this beach house for years to come. We have decided it will become a family tradition. There was plenty of room for our Family of six. I enjoyed falling to sleep to the sound of the ocean, the great kitchen (fully stocked with everything that we needed, besides food), plenty of beds, and plenty of towels. Thank you for making our family vacation a memorable one!

Brandon Allen had already thrown for a career-high 442 yards and six touchdowns when Arkansas coach Bret Bielema asked his senior quarterback to do just one more thing.
To no one's surprise, he delivered.
Allen ran for a game-winning 2-point conversion — leaping past an Ole Miss defender at the goal line — to lead Arkansas to an improbable 53-52 overtime victory over the 19th-ranked Rebels on Saturday night.
"I can't say enough about our quarterback," Bielema said. "He's a gladiator through and through."
Arkansas (5-4, 3-2) pulled off the victory thanks to two wild plays in overtime that left Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in stunned...

Mother i would like to fuck
Johnny's mom is a MILF
автор: Scwwarrior 31 августа 2005
acronym for "Mom I'd Like to Fuck"; generally an older woman who has beared offspring that young men fawn over. Typically she is hot, sexy, yet motherly. Popularized by the 1999 hit film American Pie and the character of "Stifler's Mom". Further popularized by the "amateur" pornographic films titled MILF Hunter, where the title character promiscuously goes around looking for MILFs to entertain for an hour or so.
"Karen recently won the title of World's Hottest MILF."
автор: Derrol 28 апреля 2008
The definition stems back to an old art of checking out older women with kids and needing a short acronym to inform a fellow connoisseur that you have spotted a worthy trophy. This stands for Mother I'd Like to Fuck (The "to" is Silent)
Damn, look at that MILF!!!
Have you seen any MILF's today?
That was the best MILF I have ever had!

Darkfin gloves hands-on
If you look at a platypus they've got webbed hands and feet for a reason. It's so they can swim through the water with more efficiency creating maximum force.
Now look at your hands. Chances are unless you are Platypus Man you've not got no webbed bits between your fingers and when it comes to the pool you've got to cup your hands, fingers together to move yourself through the water.
In step the Darkfin gloves (£22) that give you that webbed hand look for training sessions in the pool allowing you to build your upper body muscles supposedly faster than just using your natural naked hands.
Amazed by the possibilities of becoming a vigilante and improving our upper body strength at the same time, we convinced Firebox.com, who sell them in the UK, to send us a pair for a hands-in hands-on.
Feeling like washing up gloves, the black rubbery gloves slip on like any pair of gloves do. There is no strapping, no complicated clips or buckles, just the glove to wear.
The glove has been moulded to some degree to get the most out of the webbed areas and it's quite a change in swimming technique - you have to spread your fingers rather than cup them.
According to Firebox "By increasing the surface area of your hands by up to 70% Darkfins create greater resistance, thus allowing you to propel yourself through the water faster and more efficiently."
In the pool and the gloves perform well. We would have liked a strap around the wrist area to ensure water and additional drag isn't created by water seeping back into the glove, but this is us being picky.
A couple of lengths later and we can certainly feel the difference. For one we are going faster and secondly there is a greater pull on our shoulders rather than our arms. The additional loading could help you develop specific muscles for swim training, although you have to consider that they do alter your technique, requiring that splayed fingers approach, which might deter those looking to maintain perfect form.
The advantage they offer over traditional hands paddles (a common swimming training aid) is that you can still use your hands to grip, so you can still grab things, say, if you are retrieving an object from the bottom of the pool or climbing up the side of a boat.
Simple and effective the Darkfin gloves do what they say they will and should help anyone looking to use their pool time more effectively.
Sadly come that triathlon race day, you'll have to resort back to your hands, as they aren't allowed in competition.

With Every Letter...Review...DNF
Lt. Mellie Blake is looking forward to beginning her training as a flight nurse. She is not looking forward to writing a letter to a man she's never met–even if it is anonymous and part of a morale-building program. Lt. Tom MacGilliver, an officer stationed in North Africa, welcomes the idea of an anonymous correspondence–he's been trying to escape his infamous name for years.
As their letters crisscross the Atlantic, Tom and Mellie develop a unique friendship despite not knowing the other's true identity. When both are transferred to Algeria, the two are poised to meet face-to-face for the first time. Will they overcome their fears and reveal who they are, or will their future be held hostage by their pasts? Combining a flair for romance with excellent research and attention to detail, Sarah Sundin vividly brings to life the perilous challenges of WWII aviation, nursing–and true love.
I adored Sarah Sundin's Wings of Glory series and I was anxious for her new Wings of the Nightingale series. I've had a hard time getting into With Every Letter though and I finally just had to set it aside. Like all of Sarah's books, the setting and descriptions are vivid and her message of faith and hope is strong. However, this time around, the characters just didn't click for me and I thought the story line was a bit contrived and hard to believe. I hope that if I go back to this story sometime in the future, it will resonate a bit more for me. But right now, it's not one I can get into and finish.
Thanks to Litfuse Publicity for the opportunity to review this book. You can learn more about Sarah Sundin here. You can see other, positive reviews and tour stops here. You can purchase your own copy here.

PIERRE, S.D. – (DRG News) A Pierre motorcyclist received minor injuries in a collision in Pierre this morning. Pierre Police Captain Derald Gross says the accident was reported just before 8:00 a.m. Gross says the wreck occurred at the intersection of North Central Avenue and Eighth Street, when a Pierre man driving a pickup backed out of a driveway. A man on a passing motorcycle swerved to avoid a collision, but struck the rear end of the backing Dodge Dakota pickup and the Yamaha motorcycle tipped to the ground. The Pierre motorcyclist received minor injuries and the driver of the pickup was cited for unsafe backing.
