Spring is considered a time of renewal then I need all the renewing I
can get. Life has been such a crazy existence for this new year. Last
fall work exploded. I mean exploded to the fact that I am not getting
home until well past 9pm. It's been so hard to be motivated, coupled with a VERY long and hard winter – to work on this site. It's something I truly miss,
but I always feel that if the creative mojo isn't flowing then I
need to figure a way to get it back. So here I am trying to get it back. I have so much to look forward to this year. I'm headed to the St. Croix Food & Wine Experience where I will be writing and twittering about the event. I'm also headed to the World Cup in South Africa in June. More details on that in the next few weeks. So life has been busy, but good. I'm really blessed.
But for the first time in a long time, I'm beginning to feel like my blogging self. So much has happened with my schedule that it's so hard to comprehend where I start and end. But I keep telling myself – Spring = renewal. The first step is finding a new product, place, or item to love. My first spring renewal product is Nature's Gate Lavender & Aloe Nourishing Shampoo and Conditioner.This lightly scented combo is the perfect relaxing nourishment for my hair that I need every morning in the shower. It cleans and moisturizes while bringing my hair and me to a happy place. I'm excited to try some other Nature's Gate body products next.
What are you doing for your Spring renewal? I want to know.

And it smells so good on ya!!! I love a natural woman!!!
So you really liked the Aloe Nourishing line? Have you tried the conditioner as a deep conditioner at all? I'd be curious.
As far as a spring renewal… I'm working on renewing my sense of sexiness in myself. I've been married for a year and a half and have gained some serious lbs… So, now I'm right on the cusp of being 'overweight' and am trying to kick start an exercise routine before I cross that line!!
Aftering doing a vegan, sugar, preservatives, alcohol free fast for Lent, I'm further renewing myself by doing the Bikram Yoga 30 day challenge. So every morning, before work, I head to the studio and sweat it out for 90 minutes.
I'm cleaning out my closet, giving away old clothes and decluttering: Magazines, Paper, pay stubs–all the paper items that are piled up are going to the shredder!
Hey J,
I'm doing a few things: back to African Dance classes to get in better shape and wearing all the heels I have in my closet that I've let collect dust. Last year I bought a pair of Birkenstock….I realized I was letting my youth and sexiness slip….not good! I'm looking for a new shampoo will give this a try.
Oooh i have that. But honestly I like the Chamomile & Lemon Verbena scent better. Haha but they work the same. They do wonders. =)
Spring renewal is all about taking care of myself, getting my hair, nails and skin back in shape for summer. Winter always does a number on all three.
These shampoos are so adorable. Love the packaging and the different color caps make it much easier to distinguish one from another. Too bad I'm allergic to Lavender.
This is my first time i visit here. I found so many interesting stuff in your blog. From the tons of comments on your articles, I guess I am not the only one having all the enjoyment here! keep up the good work.
Take breaks throughout the day. It will help clear your mind and relieve pressure. Something as simple as going to the water cooler for a drink may do the trick.To help your workday go smoothly, try pacing your activities.
glad days filled with friendliness,
bright days filled with cheer,
warm days filled with happiness
to last throughout the year!
All is but lip-wisdom that wants experience.Expericence is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterwards. Do you think so?
Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.

Topper Open Meeting at Wilsonian Sailing Club
Nine Toppers representing eight sailing clubs from across the southeast attended the open meeting at Wilsonian Sailing Club on Saturday 5 April. A lapping course, one race in the morning and two back-to-back after lunch with two to count was the format. The moderate breeze was manageable, the only problem being the short chop from wind against the flood tide.
In race 1 Joshua Mclynn, Joseph Wellerd and Richard Thomas soon broke free from the pack and on the final round Mclynn eased ahead with Wellerd second and Thomas third. During the lunch break Clive Jackson sorted out his bending tiller extension and this proved essential for his success.
The breeze gradually died away during the afternoon and sailing against the strong ebb tide proved a difficulty for some. However, in race 2 Wellerd and Mclynn once again established a commanding lead with Jackson chasing close behind. Wellerd kept ahead of Mclynn on the final lap for first and second places respectively, with Jackson third.
Jackson mastered the light airs well in the final race to get clear ahead for line honours to be promoted to third overall, while a second for Wellerd was sufficient to lift the top prize. Mclynn could discard a 4th place and count a 1st and 2nd to claim second prize, while Thomas added another third to take fourth prize on aggregate.
Topper - Overall results/prizes
1st 44535 Joseph Wellerd (Crawley Mariners YC)
2nd 44350 Joshua Mclynn (Wembledon Park SC)
3rd 17501 Clive Jackson (Papercourt SC)
4th 46095 Richard Thomas (Broadstairs SC)

Re: Marvel gets a new Editor-In-Chief. JoeQ is CCO
I think this is just making official stuff that has been pretty much going on already the past several months at Marvel. Alonso had been pretty much a de facto EIC while Quesada has had his hands full dealing with the non-publishing aspect of Marvel Entertainment, IMO...
I don't know if Alonso will continue to oversee the X-Men line, but I do think it's time for a change there and elsewhere.

Excelsior Technical Manual - Revived!

My personal inclination is to believe that all of the ships looked like the 'original' and ignore the inconsistency in the second model, unless there's evidence to the contrary that the original model precludes doing so.
There existed quite a few variants of the model - with different bridge domes, different "impulse crystals", and then eventually the E-B variant. This for me sounds like a sufficient reason to go for multiple variants of the ship, too: at least those represented by the models, and perhaps several more, including but not being limited to some mix-and-match-canon-features ships. That's echoing the real world, both in the sense of echoing the modeling reality and in the sense of imitating real-world diversity of ship design.
I'd also think something called the Great Experiment would be in a state of design flux for quite some time, resulting in alterations of mission profile and onboard gear. Decades upon decades of service would work towards that same result of design evolution.
On the other hand, for a ship whose drive didn't perform as intended, the
remarkably retains her warp engines essentially externally unchanged. That to me suggests that the failure wasn't particularly serious... Or that the failed components weren't in the nacelles. What if the ventral cavity, unseen in ST3, was originally to house an all-important transwarp coil? The ship was built around this piece of equipment, and would have required major design changes were the cavity to be removed (the ventral guns were mounted on this structure already, etc.) - so Starfleet left it there, and also built it into the newer ships, even though the transwarp coil was gone by ST4 already.
Thus, the cavity in later ships is doing make-work: it houses a telescoping self-repair crane (which is what the greeblie most looks like) or perhaps a relay buoy dispenser, or then remains free for carrying all sorts of outsize cargo. Usually it's merely exposed to vacuum, though.
There are parallels in the real world: WWI battleships converted to all-new powerplants for WWII, but retaining some superstructures merely for reasons of correctly directing the smoke from the stacks even though the original innards are gone and have been replaced by completely unrelated machines that would better have fit in a completely different structure...
Timo Saloniemi
A Star Trek novel explained in great detail why transwarp drive was a failure.The crew suffered from micro distortions in local space causing madness.The effect could not be negated and also caused them to go partially into a different continuum.
I cannot remember the name but it was published in the time period after Star Trek III was released, possibly about within a 5 year time frame.
Can anybody remember the novel's title?

SunPower, PG&E Enter Contract For 100-Megawatt Henrietta Solar Project
SunPower Corp. (SPWR) has signed a power purchase agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric or PG&E for delivery of the 100-megawatt (AC) Henrietta Solar Project in Kings County, Calif. According to the company, the project is likely to create nearly 200 jobs during construction and inject $72.7 million into the local economy.
Report: U.S. Solar Market Spikes in Q2 2012, More than Doubling Q2 2011 Market Size
GTM Research and the Solar Energy Industries Association® (SEIA®) today released U.S. Solar Market Insight: 2nd Quarter 2012. The report finds that U.S. solar achieved its second-best quarter in history, having installed 742 megawatts of solar power, and the best quarter on record for the utility market segment.

Sun Peeks Through in Solar
The solar-power business is expanding quickly in the U.S., helping lift the cloud that has surrounded the industry since the demise of Solyndra LLC a year ago. But the growth isn't coming from U.S. solar-panel manufacturing, despite the money and rhetoric devoted to the industry by the Obama administration. Instead, it is in installations of largely foreign-made panels, whose falling price has made solar more competitive with other forms of power.

Arron Afflalo is a softspoken guy, the kind of person who goes about his work and lets his actions speak for him.
And this season, those actions might speak more loudly than ever for the Nuggets' fourth-year shooting guard.
Afflalo, who says he has never been more comfortable going into an NBA season than he is now, is being asked to increase his production on the offensive end. If the preseason is any indication of what is on the horizon, he's more than up to that task. He's been a find from a scoring standpoint, ending the preseason with the second-most points of any player in the NBA (163). He averaged 20.4 points per game and nearly netted a triple-double in the Nuggets' exhibition finale against the Phoenix Suns.
So the natural question is: How much of that will be seen when the games count, starting tonight against the Utah Jazz?
"I don't know," Afflalo said, smiling. "We'll find out (tonight). I'm very confident in my skills. I've been working really, really hard. And for me, it's just a natural progression trying to get better. Each year I get more confidence and a little more comfortable. I have high expectations for myself."
When the Nuggets traded for Afflalo last year, it was with defense in mind. Yet offense is in Afflalo's roots. As a junior at UCLA — his last season there — he led the Bruins in scoring with 16.9 points per game on a team that averaged just 70.9. So he scored about 24 percent of the Bruins' points.
Can Afflalo hit that scoring average in the NBA?
"Yeah, without question," he said. "I say that at the same time with respect to my teammates. You have to know your personnel. I, for one, have always been about winning and doing what the team asks me. But by no means does that mean I can't get 20 points a night. I definitely have that ability to do it."
Nuggets coach George Karl noted that part of the preseason agenda was to get Afflalo, along with point guard Ty Lawson, more into the scoring mix.
"I think that everybody sees we're trying to tilt the game a bit towards Arron and Ty," Karl said.
Last season, Afflalo averaged career highs in points, rebounds, assists, blocks, minutes, field-goal percentage and 3-point percentage.
Nuggets star Carmelo Anthony says part of Afflalo's dedication to getting better during the offseason stemmed from Denver's six-game series loss to Utah in the playoffs.
"Besides me, and this isn't to take nothing away from the other guys on the team, but Arron really took that series personal," Anthony said. "I saw him in the offseason, that's all he's been talking about, that series, getting better. He's been focused. The only thing I keep telling him is even when everybody gets back, please continue to do what you're doing."

Utah at Denver
7 p.m. tonight, ALT, 950 AM
Spotlight on Deron Williams: The veteran point guard enters his sixth season in the NBA and is coming off his first all-star campaign. He's dealt with a strained calf but is by all rights healthy and ready to play.
Nuggets: Forward Al Harrington, who has been recovering from a partially torn plantar fascia in his left foot, said he will be ready to play tonight. There's "a little bit of pain, but I'll be all right," Harrington said. Asked about his conditioning, Harrington smiled and said, "That, we gotta work on." . . . Kenyon Martin (knee) and Chris Andersen (knee) will be inactive for the season opener.
Jazz: Utah has a very different starting lineup this season, with Raja Bell, Paul Millsap and Al Jefferson all jumping into the opening five. Williams and Andrei Kirilenko round out what could be one of the most underrated starting lineups in the NBA.

During the past 10-15 years, I visited this reastaurant several times. I was always satisfied with the food and the service. The gipsy band plays gret.
Spent a nice evening in this traditional csarda, the food was delicious, the service excellent! There are multiple rooms, one with gipsy music
Great food, fantastic gypsies muzik, friendly personel, best goose liver anywhere.
Nothing to dislike, just great.
What a lovely restaurant. Beautiful place, great food, fantastic service, what a real Hungarian restaurant should be. A must visit in Heviz.
First the good parts. Easy to locate and easy to park. Clean, spacious restaurant, good wine list. Stuffed pancakes excellent and goose liver very good. But goose leg was the toughest I've ever had. Neither my husband or I could prise the meat off the bone!
Our initial waiter went home (20:30) and another waiter took over. Not a very...
Steak with lecsó was excellent - although the lecsó could have been just a little bit more piquant. The service was very good and the waiter spoke English. The atmosphere was good, but we were too early for the gipsy music, which might have made it even better.
But the food menu is like every other Hungarian style restaurant. Filled with cliches :) prices are good. If you are a big meat eater you will do fine.
Visited this restaurant based on some reviews on here and was round the corner from our apartement, waiter came sharpish, gave us english menus, took drinks order and left us for about 10 mins, took food order, brought drinks eventually, it was hot so drinks didnt last too long, food came, was really plonked on the table, didn't notice our...
Food is good, but he menu is not easy to be understood specially for a foreigner. although contents of the dishes is written in four languages, but learning contents is not enough to now about the dish, so you have to risk it, but in general it was good, Beer Glasses was so small we had to order four times.
The food was the best and the prices excellent and I would really recommend this place!! i had really great time there and I might go there this year again to Heviz!! Great place to be and relax!!!

Clifford Morris Hardin (October 9, 1915 – April 4, 2010) was an American politician and was the Chancellor of the University of Nebraska. He served as the United States Secretary of Agriculture from 1969 to 1971 under President Richard Nixon.
Hardin was born in Knightstown, Indiana, on October 9, 1915, to J. Alvin and Mabel (née Macy) Hardin. He earned a B.S. (1937), M.S. (1939) and Ph.D. (1941) from Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana. On June 28, 1939, Hardin married the former Martha Love Wood. They had two sons and three daughters.
He taught Agricultural Economics at the Michigan State University of Lansing from 1944 to 1948, when he became the assistant director and then the director of the Agricultural Experiment Station. Hardin became the school's Dean of Agriculture in 1953 and was the Chancellor of the University of Nebraska from 1954 to 1968.[1]
On January 21, 1969, Hardin served as the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture by President Richard Nixon. As the Secretary, Hardin extended the food stamp program and established both the Food and Nutrition Service (to administer from the food programs for a poor) and the Office of Intergovernmental Affairs (to coordinate the efforts of state and local officials). Hardin resigned on November 17, 1971 and was replaced by Earl L. Butz.
Hardin died from kidney disease and congestive heart failure in Lincoln, Nebraska, on April 4, 2010, at the age of 94.[2]
His daughter, Nancy H. Rogers, married Douglas L. Rogers, the son of Secretary of State William P. Rogers. His other daughter, Cynthia H. Milligan, was the husband of Robert Milligan.

Breakfast reading from the Voice Media Empire: The employees of the medical marijuana dispensary were about to close up shop for the night when a delivery man appeared at the door. But what he had to deliver were burning eyes that led to one trip to the hospital. How large was his haul? Westword has the story.

About Me Casual/ Recreational
great little toilet
The plastic rim is susceptible to damage by paint remover. Other then that it is compact , looks clean and easy to install. Seems to work as promised. I plumbed mine to a dedicated freshwater tank, it gravity feeds to the toilet. The water pump in the toilet does NOT require pressurized water as the directions said online. Thus the water pressure pump I bought with it was not needed. In fact the pump in the toilet is self pruning up to ten feet. It is nearly identical to the 2.9 gpm pressure system pump I bought to feed it that I now don't need.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Update on LuciaAs a married mother of four children, Lucia works hard to support her family.
She has a business selling ready-to-wear clothing in the Philippines, and also earns additional income from buying and selling scrap gold. Lucia is borrowing 25,000 PHP through NWTF (Kiva's field partner in the region) to purchase more items like pants, t-shirts, caps and other ready-to-wear clothing.
Lucia has been sustaining her business activities with support from her past 19 loans from NWTF and more recently, through Kiva. She hopes that her hard work will help her attain her dream, which to build and expand her business so she can secure the future of her family.
Previous Loan DetailsLucia is a hardworking entrepreneur who has a clothing business in the Philippines. She is borrowing PHP 18,000 through NWTF to buy more items like blouses, pants, caps, and other miscellaneous items for her clothing business. Lucia has been in this business for 20 years. Lucia earns more ... More from Lucia's previous loan »
Additional Information
More information about this loan
On Friday November 8, 2013, Super Typhoon Haiyan made its way through Southeast Asia, causing substantial damage to homes and businesses in areas of the Philippines. Given the state of devastation following this storm, borrowers living and working in these areas may have difficulty making repayments on their loans, thus making their Kiva loans higher risk. More information >>
About Negros Women for Tomorrow FoundationNegros Women for Tomorrow Foundation, Inc. (NWTF) is a non-governmental organization established with an aim to help men and women achieve self-sufficiency, particularly in the province of Negros Occidental's low-income communities. The organization offers its clients a wide variety of products, including loans for micro-entrepreneurs, hospital income benefits, life insurance, accidental death benefits and more. Kiva lenders' funds will be used to expand the reach of these products to low-income urban and rural communities.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Sydney 2000 Olympic 470 Gold Medallist Tom King has set his sights on becoming the first skipper to win back to back championships during the ADCO Etchells Australasian Winter regatta off Mooloolaba next month.
Etchells World Championship Sydney Australia 2012. Tom King's Iron Lotus.
King the skipper of Iron Lotus and his clever crew mates Ivan Wheen, Owen McMahon and David Edwards who recorded a brilliant win in the World championship in Sydney earlier in the year are naturally nominated as the regatta favourite.
They have the distinction of winning the hotly contested series off Mooloolaba before and are no strangers to adjusting their tactical strategy to master the tricky winter wind which often prevails off the South Queensland coast in June.
The success already recorded in skipper Tom King's personal log book including an Olympic Gold Medal and the 2012 Etchells World championship suggests he deserves the honour of holding the top skipper's card.
The winning team, Tom King, David Edwards, Ivan Wheen & Owen McMahon, "Iron Lotus".
However he understands the equally important role contributed by the crew to rank the Iron Lotus racing team as the best to master the extreme test to remain as the best in this strict art form of one-design keel-boat racing.
But the sailing conditions off Mooloolaba have shown at past regattas that they are rarely predictable and have the potential to sort the best from the rest.
Previous major regatta results have proved that skipper Tom King and his Iron Lotus crew are well equipped to handle the tactical pressure and deserve the honour of being the top nomination and the pre-title favourite.
There is also a strong mix of former World championship gold medallists in the fleet which suggests the battle to win the 2012 ADCO Etchells Australasian winter trophy has again attracted another World standard fleet.
Royal Hong Kong Yacht club skipper Mark Thornburrow has added important tactical clout to his title challenge with the former Australian champion Racer X.
Thornburrow has including the exceptionally talented 2009 World Championship Gold Medallist Bucky Smith to his crew.
Bucky Smith regarded among the smartest sailors to develop his career from racing off Mooloolaba will provide the Racer X challenge with an edge in local knowledge while his World title crew mates Matthew Chew and Paul Wyatt promise to be on the pace with Gen XY.
Master tactician Colin Beashel who holds the distinction of representing Australia at six Olympic Games besides being a member of the Australia ll Americas Cup winning crew plus a gold Medal performance at the 1993 Tag Heuer World Etchells in Brisbane returns to the class.
Beashel will skipper North Star with specialist North Sails principal Richie Allanson and Garry Gudmunson making up a highly skilled one design sailing combination that have the proven potential to command respect as a title challenger.
However, while the Iron Lotus crew remain as the pre-regatta favourite the pressure will be on for them to sail consistently to hold the chance of becoming the first to win back to back when the final race is decided off Mooloolaba Beach on June 10.

I am a conceptual artist…
Only because, my message is more important than the medium from which it is created.
I was warned not to be seduced by any medium. And I am not, save one: beeswax.
Beeswax is the glue that holds my art practice together. I am a sculptor who uses materials from distinctly different sources. By juxtaposing these materials with a beeswax or encaustic foundation I am free to manipulate, at will, until the piece finds its voice. This malleability is instrumental in my process.
Seeing work encased in beeswax had a profound effect on my formative years as an artist, as it proposed that art could be suggestive. I am drawn to subjective statements and open-ended interpretation which allows others to bring their own experiences to my artwork.
My work is full of visual puns, double entendre, symbolism and satire. It references the dichotomy of my early life expectations to conform to a traditional woman's role, when in fact, reality for me, was the need to be self-sufficient and support myself as an entrepreneur and business owner. These contradictions allow me to expose my private self through veiled metaphor creating objects significant beyond function. The underlying message – the essence of my work – speaks to the roles and rights of girls and women.

I could create two ajax requests, but I'm wondering if there is an easy way to make one request send the HTML to one div and the json to a jquery template. I've grouped different JSON requests together in the past, but this involves tagged HTML.
Regex and string ops in javascript come to mind, but that could get slow on large datasets.
I would rather not have the server "JSON" the HTML into one element, which will involve a lot of escaping and time.


text: Forestry and Gardening Saving Hemlocks from Extinction By Robbie Harris • Jan 16, 2014 A tiny, invasive bug is bringing down hemlock trees from Appalachia to southern Canada. And scientists fear another treasured native tree may be going the way of the American chestnut, forever changing forest ecosystems. Researchers at Virginia Tech are hoping to beat the invaders at their own game. They're using a new invasive species to keep an old one in check, and save the American hemlock tree. The Future of Stadium Woods By Robbie Harris • Jan 14, 2014 A 14-acre stand of trees on the Virginia Tech campus in Blacksburg recently escaped destruction when the University agreed not to build an athletic practice facility on that spot. Now a Virginia Senator wants to make protection of the parcel, known as Stadium Woods, permanent. Senator John Edwards applauds Virginia Tech's Board of Visitors for voting to save Stadium woods from development – for now. But he's introduced a bill that would make protection permanent with a conservation easement on the land. Stemming Boxwood Blight By Robbie Harris • Dec 17, 2013 Adria Bordas Scientists are asking the public's help in stemming the spread of a blight on the Boxwood bush. The plant is often used in holiday wreaths and garlands this time of year. The Boxwood plant is prized for its emerald leaves and slow growing habit. But a blight, first seen in the US in 2011 has spread to Virginia, where it threatens home gardens as well as historic sites. The disease eventually kills the plant. It's caused by a fungus spread by contact with a diseased boxwood. Wood Pellets & Sustainability By Sandy Hausman • Dec 16, 2013 The European Union is pushing member states to go green -- offering incentives and requiring that utilities cut their carbon emissions and increase their use of renewable energy sources by 20%. That sounds like a noble goal, but it may be having unintended consequences in Virginia and neighboring states – consequences that have some environmentalists up in arms. Ivy Invasion By Sandy Hausman • Dec 13, 2013 Red bricks covered with ivy have long been seen as a part of Virginia's charm, but scientists in Richmond warn the vines are taking over – posing a threat to other plants in the state, and they want citizens to do their part in getting ivy under control.

Fairy Tale puts the Civilization IV nationbuilding, warring and strategy elements in a Fairy Tale world with witches, knights, elves and damsels in distress.
This is Patch 3a. It adds more unique buildings to Fairy Tale, World Wonders and some stuff like that. It also adds a proper Queen figure to the game. Download Patch 3a here.
Posted by Antiscamp on Mar 27th, 2010
Civilization IV BtS
This Patch upgrades Fairy Tale to Version 3a, which has several updates to the original game. You need Fairy Tale Version 3 for this to work. To Install, simpy unzip the Fairy Tale folder to your mods folder in your Beyond the Sword directory where you initially installed the game. Overwrite where asked.
The manual is opened by opening the ReadMe.html file supplied with the mod, and the Version History can be studied in the manual as well.
Join the discussion thread on CivFanatics for more information about Fair Tale (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=353813).
NOTE: The Purple Tower works like the UN. The dialogue is also directly from Vanilla Civ's UN. Therefore some strange options will be available, and will be changed in future updates, but I wanted to include the Purple Tower in any case, since it opens for diplomatic victory games.
*All nations now have their own flags and symbol buttons.
*Added SaibotLieh's Queen to the mod. This beautiful character replaces the old, rather inappropriate Queen.
*Updated resources situation on the World of Fairy Tale map.
*The Denerean Cog and the Viking Longboat can now transport military and settlers as well, not only explorers.
*Updated some buildings. Gave the Forge and Granary new looks. All Building graphics in Patch 3a were made by Walter Hawkwood.
*Gave the Elven Federation unique Forges and Granaries. Gave the Denereans a unique Library and the Yatengi a unique Granary too.
*Updated the looks of the Harem World Wonder. And no. It does not look pervy.
*Added several World Wonders and updated the looks of most of the existing, the Purple Tower being the most significant addition. That one opens up for the diplomatic vote in games with that Victory Condition applied. In reality, it works like a UN for the World of Fairy Tale. The Purple Tower is buildable from Tech Monarchy.

Com'on along
Tuesday and Wednesday, June 5&6
The drive from Vancouver to Seattle was superb. We drove along Highway 5, a curvy and sometimes 90 degree square around the corners of farmer's fields. It was picturesque with red roofed barns and weathered tumble down sheds. It was soothing; displaying various sheds of green from fresh yellow green dandelion to spring green deciduous leaves to turquoise new spruce growth and to dark almost black green of aged pines.
Every turn in the road presented a new collage of farm field fence and far off horizon. Will had a workout today what with all the 90 degree turns 60% grades and long tight stretches of road.
The state of Washington makes me wax poetic. I love it.
Arriving at the city outskirts of Seattle brought an abrupt end to the languid countryside. From the highway the buildings showed themselves to be an eclectic mix of modern, turn of the century and cowboy architecture. Don't ask what cowboy architecture is …. Just made that up to represent those buildings that were slapped into a space and called an edifice.
After driving thru lovely residential area the Saltwater State Park was
Conserving Puget Sound
not accepting tents. Retracing our route we continued to drive out and past Seattle and SeaTac and Tacoma until we drove thru a very posh area and arrived at Dash Point S.P.
The space was just big enough for the truck. We spread out and avoided pitching the tents beside people we wanted to avoid cooked a dinner of curried pork with rice and after cleaning up went to our tents.
Time for a shower in the morning… after rag wash and a little read by headlamp, sleep overcame me and didn't hear a thing until had to piss in the wind!
Morning meant preparing breakfast for those who wanted to eat. Not too many it turned out. All that was on offer was cereal and milk with some toast…. Blah blah blah! … and again the clean up and putting away of the plastic boxes that contain the crockery, food, and utensils.
I have so much 'stuff' on and under my seat that a major clean up is necessary. The extras had to be put into the big pack.Some things had to be sent home. The rest was placed in a convenient bag that can
Graceful transport lines
easily be carried to the tent and contains my toiletries and reading material. The laptop now sits in an unupolstered backpack… the protective carrying case is clumsy and cumbersome to carry.
Once organized, showered and I made ready for the promised ride to Tocoma and the train to Seattle.
When I saw Tacoma and since it was almost 12:00 I decided to stay in this absolutely beautiful small city. So much reconstruction, revision and redirection has happened here, it looks like a new old town.
Clark, the campround volunteer host had offered to give me a lift to Tocoma and the train. Since I was not going to Seattle I invited Clarke for a coffee. We spent a pleasant half hour in Tully's drinking much better coffee than what is offered at that other place.
After going to the Post office, doing a small wander into one end of town the free shuttle train brought me back to the centre where the old train station stood in its newly discovered glory.
The old train station in Tacoma has been converted into The Washington State Museum, The County Court, and a coffee shop. In the main hall
Industrial vew from town centre.
of the old station the arches and main window have been decorated by Dale Chihuye, a famous glassblower. The Glass Bridge leads to the glass museum. Had a wall filled with his creations of fantasy in glass after the Venetian Style. The ceiling of part of he bridge was divided into squares and each square was filled with glass pipes, orbs, platters, and odd shapes. All together they formed a glass collage to be viewed from below.
In the Glass Museum a presentation of the contrast between glass is on display. Included in the exhibit is one piece by Lalique and one window by Frank Lloyd Wright. The other pieces were dramatic, controversial, defying patience and utterly beautiful. It serves as a perfect primer for someone who has interest in but very little knowledge about glass.
The other excitement at the Glass Museum is the Hot Shop. From outside the Museum can be seen a huge silver dome standing somewhat but not very askew. Once inside the museum the need for height is revealed. The Hot Shop with its six glass furnaces is located at the bottom of the cone. The gasses from the glass work and the
Refurbished residence
furnaces is dissipated into the height of the cone.
Local artists of merit are invited for a five day stay at the museum Hot Shop and they work as visitors to the museum watch and ask questions about glass art. While I was there the piece being worked on cracked so alternative plans were made on the spot for that part of the project that was still in tact,
The face of Botticelli's Venus had been printed on glass with glass. That part of the projected sculpture was saved and consequently turned into an idea that resembled a Faberge Egg.
As before, the place closed at five so with reluctance I made my way out to the street.
In Tacoma a light transit rail moves along a street that seems dedicated to transport. The light transit is a free ride from one end of the downtown district to the other. That is to say from the Entertainment District to the Transit Centre. I took this little train a few times.
Ending up at the transit centre, I investigated the Farmer's Market. It was not to prolific, it being only the beginning of June. Asparagus were on offer
Spider like fire escape
as well as spring flowers and cherries from California.
After ordering a noodle meal and a drink in the train station I found WiFi access and sat there until well past 7:30 putting my emails in order. I enquired about the bus I wanted to take next morning when I planned to paint Seattle red and see all of their papier mache pigs.
Time to get back to the campsite. Had no idea about taking the bus back. Was tired so got into a cab. Informing the cabbie of the address he headed off. At $21.51 I protested that the ride should only cost $15. He shut off the meter. He was totally lost.
More than three phone calls and two gas station visits and more than an hour later he deposited me in front of the truck at the campsite. I paid him $20.
I enjoyed Tacoma. I would visit it again. There is a beautiful University campus here. The people seemed friendly ands there was enough interest in the locals to make a beautiful thing out of their city.
The help Clark gave to me and all the people in my group was a
Steel Seals
true act of generosity. He has more than surpassed his role as a Campground Host. Thank you Clark. I wish all campers a friendly helpful volunteer like yourself and Glen and Susi and of course we cannot forget your amusing dogs.
In my overexhuberance and because I have been trying to upload the pictures for this piece more than three times the pictures after Pike's Market are from Seattle.... blog to follow ... of course there are also more Seattle pics.

Love your photos
Barbara, A picture is worth a thousand words, and you hit the spot with your photos of the glass sculptures. I hope to go to Tachoma some day. By the way, I've heard of the Flying Fish because my husband was given a book written by one somebody who went to the fishmarket and (to cut a long story short) found a metaphor for daily living and thriving in her business. And she ended up marrying one of the fishmongers! I always look forward to your blogs, and when it's miserable packing up a tent in the rain, I feel happy to be warm and dry! But I would like to be travelling (with just a little more luxury! A cheap hotel would do!) Happy travelling! Helen

Summer is officially upon us, and millions of American families will soon be embarking on their annual trips to the beach, the mountains, the lake, grandma's house, or any other of the fantastic destinations our country has to offer.
The beginning of "summer driving season" is also a time when many Americans turn even greater attention to the price of gasoline. After all, traveling several hundred or more miles in a loaded up minivan can rack up an awfully large fuel bill.
But what about this year? Everyone knows that domestic oil production has been surging, and that this has created tens of thousands of jobs and improved our balance of trade. Doesn't the Great American Oil Boom also mean that families won't have to spend as much on the Great American Road Trip? One might be inclined to think that, but summer fuel prices tell us otherwise. more >>
Surprise, surprise, the labor force participation rate in April for young adults between the ages of 25-29 hit a record low. Liberals continue to tout that young people are doing just fine under the Obama economy, but alas the data shows otherwise.
Young people have been the hardest hit by Obama and his leftist policies. Young Americans are the ones expected to pick up the tab for the reckless spending coming from Washington while facing an increasingly tough job market.
Each year Young America's Foundation releases its Youth Misery Index (YMI), which adds together youth unemployment, average graduating student debt, and national debt per capita. According to the YMI at no point in recent history has life been harder for America's young people. more >>
President Barack Obama and his feminist friends have been trotting out their tiresome slogan that women are paid only 77 cents for every dollar a man earns. Every reputable scholar who has commented has proved that this is a notorious falsehood that anyone should be embarrassed to use.
U.S. law calls for equal pay for equal work, but the feminist slogan is not based on equal work. Women work fewer hours per day, per week, per year. They spend fewer years as full-time workers outside the home, avoid jobs that require overtime, and choose jobs with flexibility to take time off for personal reasons. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, men are twice as likely as women to work more than 40 hours a week.
Women place a much higher value on pleasant working conditions: a clean, comfortable, air-conditioned office with congenial co-workers. Men, on the other hand, are more willing to endure unpleasant working conditions to earn higher pay, doing dirty, dangerous outside work. In 2012, men suffered 92 percent of work-related deaths. more >>
A large number of seminary graduates are dealing with overwhelming debt upon graduation, according to a new study by a research organization connected to Auburn Theological Seminary.
Many of these graduates are forced to moonlight at other jobs to make ends meet, found the Center for the Study of Theological Education.
The CSTE found that among 2011 graduates there was record debt, according to David Briggs of Presbyterian News Service. more >>
In January, the Retirement Systems of Alabama (RSA) released its Comprehensive Annual Financial Reform (CAFR) for the 2013 fiscal year. The report was received with little fanfare. During an election year, no politician wants to run afoul of the RSA and the billions it invests in Alabama.
Unfortunately, this head-in-the-sand approach to public pension accountability is not working, and it will have painful consequences for Alabama's future. While state politicians have made needed adjustments to the state retirement system over the last several years, they have left the defined benefit structure of the RSA intact.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, only 68 percent of U.S. workers have any access to retirement benefits and only 28 percent have access to a defined benefit pension plan like those provided through the RSA. more >>
I don't need to tell the savvy readership of The Christian Post that this economic "recovery" has been a combination of smoke and mirrors, held together with a shoestring and bubble gum.
The plummeting economy, triggered by the collapse of our government-inflated housing bubble, was temporarily slowed in its break-neck decline by the Obama administration's decision to shovel astronomic amounts of taxpayer money into a hole. In June 2010, after the first round of Quantitative Easing, the Fed had holdings of $2.054 trillion. In November 2010, deciding that things weren't improving fast enough, QE2 was launched and we bought up another $600 billion of assets/debt. When that failed to stimulate the market into a full-on recovery, QE3 was announced in September of 2012. At that point, the Fed declared that they would be buying $40 billion/month for an open-ended duration.
Should be sufficient, right? Even the piggish appetites of our central bankers should be sated by an open-ended allowance of 400 million dollars EVERY SINGLE MONTH, right? Wrong. Just 3 months after the announcement of QE3, the Federal Open Market Committee declared that the bond-buying would be increased from $40b a month to $85b, more than doubling the amount of debt the American people were being given every month. Make no mistake; there is no money to spend on these debt purchases. This is referred to as "fiat money" as it is created by fiat, not by any market mechanisms or wealth creation. Each time money is created in this fashion, the dollar you hold in your wallet or your 401(k) gets a little weaker. The greedy progressives behind this diabolical process have discovered that they can rob you without ever touching your billfold, simply by watering down the funds they already control. more >>
