Puerto Maldonado and the Amazon
About Puerto Maldonado and the Amazon
The frontier colonist town of Puerto Maldonado is a remote jungle settlement close to the Bolivian border. Stretching out from the Madre de Dios riverfront to the forest edge, Puerto Maldonado offers excellent access to the Amazon rainforest with jungle lodges, exceptional wildlife and indigenous cultures all within easy reach. Lago (lake) Sandoval is only an hour away downriver and is a great place for bird spotting with the giant otter making the occasional appearance. Travelling further east to Lago Valencia you can watch gold-panners on the river and visit a small Indian settlement before observing caiman basking on the muddy banks of the lake.
To truly feel, see and hear the Amazon rainforest in all its splendid glory, the Tambopata-Candamo Reserved Zone is arguably the place to do so in Peru. Accessible from a number of lodges in the Puerto Maldonado region, the reserve is home to some of the world's most bio diverse rainforest and Colpa Colorado, the world's largest macaw clay lick. Attracting wild birds with salt, minerals and clay, these licks are an incredible sight when at first light hundreds of colourful parrots congregate to feed. Ideally it's best to spend at least two nights in the Amazon to maximise wildlife spotting opportunities and fully appreciate this unique environment. Guided walks and canoe trips are the ideal way to explore the Amazon as the flora, fauna and culture of the region are introduced and explained. Staying in jungle lodges, at night be serenaded to sleep by the soundtrack of distant cicadas, dove song and duetting frogs, and wake to the cacophony of howler monkeys, the humming of insects and chirping of birds.

Tragic Mistake
In a formal Tragedy, there is a specific scene where the Tragic Hero is given a clear choice, and they choose... poorly. Often this wrong choice can be blamed on the hero's Fatal Flaw, but sometimes they just get screwed over by fate. (Classic Greek theater liked to give their tragic heroes dilemmas with no correct choice.) This moment may not be obvious at the time, but looking back, it becomes clear that this moment was crucial to the hero's tragic downfall. The results of this bad choice lead inexorably towards the hero's catastrophic end—had the hero chosen correctly at this point, the catastrophe could have been averted. The literary term for this is hamartia, a Greek term from Aristotle's Poetics (and an admittedly vaguely-defined one—it can also be interpreted as a Fatal Flaw). Which also means this device is Older Than Feudalism. To clarify, this is not supposed to be an event that gets the plot moving. The Tragic Mistake occurs well after the plot has been set in motion—it's the Tragic Hero's personal point of no return. Structurally, this moment is the Crisis of the story (or just this character's story arc), and everything afterwards is Denouement. Not to be confused with the Moral Event Horizon, although a mistaking of civilians for military personnel will certainly be painted by the enemy as one. Also compare with Karmic Death, which is reserved for outright villains and tends to be faster-acting. As the Tragic Mistake is one of the most crucial moments in the story expect a lot of spoilers below.
open/close all folders
Anime and Manga
- Griffith's mistake in Berserk was his tryst with Princess Charlotte immediately after Guts leaves the Band of the Hawk, defeating him in the process. This act pisses off the King enough to have him put to the torture, which starts the downward spiral that ultimately leads to the Eclipse.
- Guts himself knows all too well that leaving the band was the biggest mistake he ever made. Especially since the thing he was looking for was right there.
- In Code Geass, Lelouch Lamperouge's mistake would undoubtedly be when he accidentally Geassed Euphemia into massacring the gathered Japanese. He had intended to embrace her Special Administrative Zone wholeheartedly, but he didn't know until it was too late that he was suffering from a sudden onset of Power Incontinence: an offhand comment became an irrevocable command, and he was forced to kill his beloved sister, tarnish her name, and destroy a fleeting chance at peaceful resolution.
- Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Though it could be said that Sayaka Miki's deal with Kyubey in the first place is the mistake that leads to her downfall, her actual act of Hamartia is when she refuses to cleanse her Soul Gem, because she's full of despair from seeing Kyousuke Kamijou (her childhood friend) accepting Hitomi Shizuki's love confession. Her despair not only turns her into a witch, but also leads to her and Kyouko Sakura's death.
- For the villains side: They never expected Homura's seemingly simple wish would cause an infinitely amplifying chain reaction that would derail their entire system since it ended up creating a God and a Devil with powers beyond anyone's control.
- The AVERSION of this is conspicious in The Strange Talent of Luther Strode. The story has all the elements of the tragedy...except Luther never seems to really make the mistake that leads to his doom. From the moment he grabs the Hercules Method, to the end of the strip, his fate is decided. Even his first confrontation with the Librarian, fails, purely because of the Librarian's strength.
- When Spider-Man arrogantly refused to stop for five seconds to stop a crook rushing past him, telling the cop chasing the guy it wasn't his job, his life was changed forever; the same crook would later murder his uncle. While that mistake defined what he is, the lesson was learned in the harshest way possible.
- Neil McCauley in Heat survives to the aftermath of the heist, and is about to get away scot free with Eady, only to get information that Waingro (the man who betrayed him and his crew) is currently staying at a hotel not far from the airport he's departing from. In the end, McCauley decides to get revenge, killing Waingro but leading to Lt. Hanna getting between him and Eady. Forced to leave her and run, he finds the runway empty and Hanna in pursuit, all which culminates in a showdown where Hanna fatally shoots McCauley.
- Another case in the movie is the paroled criminal whom McCauley recruits for the final heist. He had no involved in any of the crimes so far and could have easily said no to the offer and walked away. Instead he makes an impulsive decision and ends up killed by the cops.
- Scarface (1983): Tony Montana makes many mistakes, but the point of no return was when he killed Alejandro Sosa's hitman to prevent the unnecessary murder of innocents, antagonizing the only person who could have helped him out of his own mess.
- Another point of no return was when he killed his best friend and right hand man thinking that he betrayed him. The friend was actually about to tell him that he is in love with Tony's sister and they just got married. This leaves him completely alone with no allies left and completely demoralized. The old Tony might have been able to find a way to survive the consequences of killing Sosa's hitman, but after that point he simply did not care anymore.
- Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. Anakin Skywalker had made many mistakes prior to this point, but what pushed him irrevocably over to the Dark Side was his decision to save Emperor Palpatine, leading directly to Mace Windu's death and leaving him no chance to go back.
- Another point of no return for Anakin was when he impulsively (and unnecessarily) refuses to see Padmé Amidala, his wife, trying to talk him down, and Obi-Wan Kenobi stowing away on her ship, as anything but an attack on him. This results in him Force choking his wife and dueling with his former Jedi Master, ending with him having his three remaining limbs chopped off and getting burned very badly by the lava. The old Anakin might have been able to find a way to save his wife from dying in her childbirth, but after waking up in the black suit, he realizes that his own fears ends up killing her.
- There Will Be Blood has a moment in the middle where Daniel Plainview is about to enjoy a meal with his son H.W. in a restaurant. They've been apart while H.W. was at a school for the deaf, and Daniel has been trying to reform because his lifestyle indirectly led to H.W.'s deafness. It looks like he's about to turn over a new leaf and create a healthy relationship with his adopted son, when in walks a businessman from earlier in the movie, who had turned down Daniel's offer. His pride bubbles up, he makes a scene and he reverts to his highly confrontational self. From here, it worsened.
- In Kung Fu Panda 2, Lord Shen is told by the protagonist that it's not too late; that he can choose who he is, and doesn't have to be defined by his desire for revenge on his family. Shen explicitly chooses to continue fighting, and dies in the battle.
- Nicholas and Alexandra features a scene in which Russia is teetering on the brink of getting involved in World War I. Count Witte, the Only Sane Man in the government of Tsar Nicholas II, begs the tsar not to go to war, laying out in excruciating detail all the disasters that will follow. Nicholas orders mobilization anyway. This leads directly to Russia's defeat, Red October, and Nicholas and all of his family getting murdered by the Bolsheviks.
- In New Jack City, there's the old man who was forced out of the Carter Apartments when Nino took it over by force. The old man confronts the drug lord and even pulls a gun on him. Instead of Nino having the man dealt with, he lets him go and jokes about what he did, not taking him seriously. When Nino is finally arrested, he's able to smooth talk his way to getting a one year prison sentence. He brags in front of the media, only for the old man he didn't take seriously to show up and kill him with the same gun during the post trial press conference.
- Carlitos Way also had the above example of sparing someone he shouldn't have. Carlito had the troublemaking Benny Blanco at his mercy but let him live because he was a reformed man.
- In The Caster Chronicles Genevieve's attempt to resurrect her beloved cursed her and her family for generations to come.
- In The Children of Húrin, it was Túrin fleeing Doriath and refusing to return that led to all his misfortune and eventual death.
- In Native Son, Bigger Thomas stifles Mary Dalton with a pillow when her blind mother comes into her room, out of fear that the very drunk Mary will betray his presence in her room. After Mrs. Dalton leaves and he relaxes his grip, he takes a long look at Mary and notices that she isn't breathing...
- A Song of Ice and Fire's characters tend to fall victim to the inevitable hubris of their Tragic Flaws, but a couple of them can pin their failure to definitive points of no return. Eddard turning down the help of Renly and Littlefinger and warning Cersei that he knew her secret, expecting her to flee to safety, resulted in her killing the king and installing her son, who has him executed for treason. Robb's decision to marry Jeyne Westerling sets off the events leading to the Red Wedding. Theon Greyjoy's choice to hold Winterfell kicks off what is arguably the series' most tragic character arc ("Reek, Reek, it rhymes with weak"). Arguably, leaving Winterfell in the first place is Catelyn Stark's tragic mistake, because everything that she does after leaving merely makes things worse for her family, and all of her attempts to make up for it just make things snowball until her husband and sons have all lost their heads (to her knowledge), her daughters are both missing, and most of her friends are dead or in chains.
- Things Fall Apart: Okonkwo raises the political prisoner Ikemafuna like his own son for three years, and then the village elders decree that the boy must be executed. The oldest man in the village warns Okonkwo to have nothing to do with the killing, or else it would be an offense to the gods, as if he had killed his own child. Okonkwo disobeys, and help to kill the boy so as not to appear weak before the other men.
- The fallout: The gods send bad luck in Okonkwo's way, culminating in an accidental killing that forces him to go into exile for seven years. In that time, white colonists move into the Ibo village; without Okonkwo's leadership the Ibo get taken advantage of and lose their will to fight for themselves. Okonkwo, upon returning, tries and fails to organize a resistance, and hangs himself.
Live Action TV
- 24: In season 8, Kamistan President Omar Hassan is assassinated by Samir Mehran, nearly destroying Allison Taylor's chances of having a peace treaty signed. Already growing desperate thanks to sacrifices she's made out of her own family in the past few years and horrified at the thought that they could be for nothing, she winds up siding with Charles Logan in an attempt to get it back on track. The problem with this? One of the parties in the signing, the Russian Government, has several corrupt members in their ranks up to and including the President, and they were the ones who masterminded the attacks of the day, including Hassan's death. This means that if the treaty is signed they're allowed to go scot-free, and the worst thing is that even after discovering their involvement Taylor chooses to still go ahead with it and protect them, even going so far as to have anyone attempting to reveal the truth incarcerated or otherwise silenced. She does ultimately realize what she's done and call off the treaty, but at this point thanks to her own crimes it at the very least cost her her presidency.
- This in turn, leads a broken and grief-stricken Jack Bauer to go down his own fateful path. Throughout the series, Jack's someone who's always given in to the desire for revenge, but even though it's a constant temptation he just manages to avoid following the outright route of Revenge Before Reason. That comes to an end here, where thanks to the Russians previously murdering Renee Walker to keep her from potentially exposing them after recognizing one of their undercover agents, and after Taylor makes her own mistake and intentionally sidelines him, he goes rogue to find the evidence that confirms that rogue members of the of the government on his own. Unfortunately, when he manages to get the evidence that reveals their part in the conspiracy, instead of just going through with exposing them he finally chooses to go said route when he executes a surrendering Dana Walsh, ultimately choosing to kill everyone involved in the attacks since Taylor's betrayal has destroyed his belief in any sort of justice system. It all goes downhill form there, with him eventually using an innocent person as a lure for some of the attackers, performing a borderline terrorist-level attack on Logan's motorcade in public, and killing the Russian Foreign Minister which means all of Russia, not just the crooked part, now wants him executed. At the very end he's just barely stopped before he's able to trigger an international calamity, but by this point he's considered a terrorist who's forced to go into hiding since he'll be taken in for the death penalty, if he isn't shot on sight. Additionally his own family has been made potential targets since they could be attacked to lure him out.
- In Supernatural, efforts to save the world at any cost seem to backfire whenever a character decides that they're The Only One who can do so instead of relying on friends.
- In season four, Dean Winchester demands Sam to dissolve his alliance with the demon Ruby and giving up drinking demon blood to gain the power to defeat Lilith, as per the angels' requests/warnings, or walk out and "not be brothers anymore". Since Dean calls him a monster and "closes that door" on him just like their father did, and Sam believes what he's doing is the only way to prevent the Apocalypse, it's more believable how Ruby and the angels deceive Sam. He becomes Lilith's/Ruby's Unwitting Pawn and, in his efforts to stop the Apocalypse, unintentionally busts Lucifer out of Hell to start The End of the World as We Know It.
- In season six, Castiel chooses not to seek Dean's help in fighting the civil war in Heaven, and instead makes a Deal with the Devil, breaks Sam's mind, and kills his angel friends so he can gain the power of Purgatory's souls to win the war to prevent the Apocalypse from being restarted. Then he declares himself the new god. In season seven, things go downhill from there as Castiel's actions unleash unkillable monsters on the world.
- In Breaking Bad, Walter White could have avoided everything that came after by taking his friend Elliot's offer of a job at Gray Matter Technologies with full health coverage for his cancer treatments. Instead, he saw the offer as charity and refused.
- In Jules Massenet's opera Manon, the downfall of the eponymous protagonist begins when she chooses to stay with the rich codger de Brétigny, instead of Taking the Veil as planned, or taking the hand of the penniless young hunk des Grieux. Other versions of the Manon story are similar.
- Medea: Though Medea is the protagonist, Jason is the borderline Fallen Hero, victim of his own pride and machismo.
- Oedipus the King straddles the line between being undone by a fatal flaw and being screwed over by fate. The crime for which he was punished was that he killed his father and married his mother—but due to circumstances completely beyond his control, Oedipus never knew that they were related to him. On the other hand, you could say that this would not have happened if Oedipus had not, in his pride, quarreled with and killed another chariot driver on the road—a chariot driver who ultimately turned out to be Oedipus' father.
- That said, it's made abundently clear, that he can back away and NOT ask what happened...or should.
- Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street: Though it's arguable that Sweeney Todd's hesitation in his first attempt to kill Judge Turpin, a la Hamlet, was the point of no return for him, his real point of no return was when he killed the Beggar Woman, who he did not know was actually his wife, because he had no time left before the Judge showed up for the second and last time.
- William Shakespeare:
- Hamlet: In Act 3, the prince learns that Claudius was indeed guilty of murdering his father, and catches Claudius unawares while praying. Instead of avenging his father right there, Hamlet decides that it's not good enough—he wants Claudius to die with unpaid sin on his soul, so killing him in the act of confessing won't do. Hamlet resolves to kill Claudius later. The fallout: Hamlet does attempt to kill Claudius later, during his confrontation with his mother, only he kills Polonius instead by mistake. His death drives Ophelia to madness and death, and angers Laertes enough to challenge Hamlet to a duel—the duel that results in the death of nearly every named character.
- For extra irony, Claudius notes, just after we see Hamlet leave, that his praying is nothing more than lip service because he can't put his heart into it.
- Macbeth: In Act 2, the title character's point of no return came when he killed King Duncan.
- Romeo and Juliet: In Act 3, Romeo's "point of no return" was his killing of Tybalt in vengeance for Mercutio, leading to his banishment from Verona. Granted, Tybalt was a supreme Asshole Victim who probably deserved it, but everything still goes to hell for both lovers because of it. This is a particularly interesting turning point because until then, the story plays out exactly like a standard Elizabethan romantic comedy, which would inevitably have paired up both of the eponymous lovers (and probably Paris and Rosalind into the bargain) and made their parents put aside their differences.
- It may be even earlier then that...as Romeo PROVOKES Tybalt into the actions that lead to Mercutio's death...by acting inexplicably nice, which drove Tybalt nuts. ("G Imme a hug! level nice)
- King Lear: Lear's mistake came in the very first scene, when he banishes Cordelia and Kent - two of the three characters who are actually on his side - and then vests the power of his kingdom jointly in Goneril and Regan, his two evil daughters. It only takes him a few scenes to realise his mistake, but the fallout is severe: the deaths of Cornwall, Gloucester, Cordelia, Goneril, Regan, Edmund and, finally, Lear himself. The ending also implies that Kent is about to die or kill himself too, leaving only Edgar and Albany behind to pick up the pieces.
- Hamlet: In Act 3, the prince learns that Claudius was indeed guilty of murdering his father, and catches Claudius unawares while praying. Instead of avenging his father right there, Hamlet decides that it's not good enough—he wants Claudius to die with unpaid sin on his soul, so killing him in the act of confessing won't do. Hamlet resolves to kill Claudius later. The fallout: Hamlet does attempt to kill Claudius later, during his confrontation with his mother, only he kills Polonius instead by mistake. His death drives Ophelia to madness and death, and angers Laertes enough to challenge Hamlet to a duel—the duel that results in the death of nearly every named character.
Video Games
- Dragon Age II has two major characters whose fatal flaws lead to terrible consequences, and in both cases it's the sin of pride that does them in. One makes a tragic mistake late in the game: Merrill's true tragic mistake is summoning the Pride Demon (believing herself equal to handling any risk it poses), which ends up possessing Marethari, forcing Merrill to kill her and possibly leading to Merrill's entire clan attacking her and her friends. The other's true tragic mistake came before the game even started, though it's really midway through his character arc since it was the events of Awakening that led up to it: Anders, being kind to a friend and believing himself strong-willed enough to resist corruption, allows the Spirit of Justice to possess him. Unfortunately, he does end up being corrupted and slowly driven insane, since his rage at the injustices he sees in the world (and hanging out near some of the most powerful demons in existence) transforms Justice into Vengeance.
- In Fallout: New Vegas, there's Bitter Springs. It was a little settlement in a canyon for the Great Khans, a tribe that constantly harassed the NCR as they took over the region and expanded their territory. Eventually, soldiers were sent in to destroy the "base" at Bitter Springs and a group of 1st Recon NCR snipers deployed around the canyon's exit to ensure none of them managed to escape...but as the place burned, the Khans tried to get their women and children out first. Add in some confused communications, and the higher-ups still gave the order to fire. Result: 1st Recon snipers gunning down wounded non-combatants as they tried to run. Anyone who was there carries serious psychological scars, even though it was years ago by the time of the game.
- Spec Ops: The Line: In chapter 8 ("The Gate"), Captain Martin Walker makes the call to use white phosphorous mortars on a group of enemy soldiers, wiping them out to the last man in a painful, slow, poisonous conflagration. Witnessing the aftermath horrifies him - but his mind cracks completely the moment he realizes 47 civilians were caught in the blaze as well. When he chooses to go on anyway, claiming the circumstances/enemies gave him "no choice", he damns both himself and everyone around him in not admitting to his own faulty judgement. The final chapter of the story sees him realize that it's completely too late to turn back... or he could decide to still go back home with all the shell-shock and facing his punishment in both life and court for his mistakes.
- Suikoden II: Jowy had the heroes in an Ambush and could've easily killed them off - except Shu threw Pilika at him. He lets the group go, deciding he couldn't risk harming her. His strategist remarks he blew his chance. The fallout: The War continues on, turning in the hero's favor, and Jowy is ousted from the throne. (What happens depends on the player's choice.)
- In Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors, Akane's tragic mistake is when she runs back to get the doll, getting herself caught by Hongou and forced into the incinerator. Up until that point, she was entirely a victim of circumstance: but her mistake- stupid though it was- added a layer of moral ambiguity to her continued struggle for survival. She ends up murdering several people in order to achieve her goals.
- There's one in Hanako's path in Katawa Shoujo. If Hisao makes the wrong choice at the second-to-last branch by treating her too carefully, deciding for her that she can't handle the trip into town, the final choice that would have led to the good or neutral endings instead leads only to the bad.
Web Comics
- This is what pushes Redcloak into Anti-Villain (or flat-out villain) territory in The Order of the Stick prequel book Start of Darkness. His brother Right-Eye decides that nothing they accomplish working with Xykon is worth his casual slaughter of their own troops, and acquires a weapon that can destroy Xykon despite him being a lich. Redcloak, on the other hand, thinks that it will all have been meaningless if he backs out, and kills Right-Eye. To make matters worse, Xykon reveals that he already knew about Right-Eye's plan and had taken steps to protect himself, but wanted to see what Redcloak would do.
- In Homestuck, Eridan's mistake is killing Kanaya and Feferi because of his envy and despair. He dies horribly because of that, and it's entirely his own fault. From that point on, nobody considers him anything more than a serious danger to their survival.

The JC, in association with the Richard Young Gallery, is launching its first Young Photographers Competition, aimed at people aged 30 and under.
Aspirant photographers, amateur or professional, are invited to submit a picture on the theme of modern Jewish Britain.
Families have been reunited with Judaica stolen from their homes following an appeal on the JC website.
Eight men were arrested last month after police discovered them squatting in a house in The Ridgeway, Golders Green, with a stash of stolen goods.
The valuables included a menorah, a collection box and candlesticks, as well as jewellery, a laptop computer and a silver watch.
I have been married to the JC for longer than to my wife, Beryl. But after almost 50 years, it is time to pass the baton over.
The long-lost relatives of a man stabbed to death 92 years ago have been reunited after a chance sighting of an advert on the JC's weekly email newsletter.
The surprising reunion has its origin in the 1919 murder of garment factory foreman Solomon Franks, by a Russian Jewish worker who had been traumatised in the battlefields of the First World War.
The Jewish Chronicle is to launch a search for a new chief executive. The successful applicant will succeed managing director, Alan Rubenstein.
A man who bombarded the Jewish Chronicle with hundreds of "vile, abusive and antisemitic" phone calls, has been jailed for 10 months.
William James Hannaford, 57, of Euston, who called JC staff "f---ing parasites" and "mosquitoes", was also given a restraining order after repeatedly calling the paper's central London offices.
A man has pleaded guilty to racially aggravated harassment against the Jewish Chronicle.
William James Hannaford of Euston pleaded guilty to one charge at the Old Bailey on Monday morning.
During a three month period last year Hannaford phoned the Jewish Chronicle office hundreds of times, shouting about "dirty rotten Jews" and "Jewish cockroaches".
Two new non-executive directors have joined the board of the Jewish Chronicle.
Daniel Finkelstein, executive editor of The Times and a JC and Times columnist, and Michael Marx, a property developer who is chairman of the London Jewish Cultural Centre, become the newest members.
The new board, chaired by lawyer and writer Anthony Julius, took over in January.
The lawyer and writer Anthony Julius has been appointed chairman of the Jewish Chronicle.
Mr Julius, deputy chairman of solicitors Mishcon de Reya, is also a noted author who has written extensively on law, literature, art, culture and antisemitism.
His book, Trials of the Diaspora: A History of Anti-Semitism in England was published last year.
He said of his appointment: "I am honoured. The JC is the most respected Jewish publication, not just in the UK, but in Europe.
"I am looking forward to making my contribution to ensure its continued success."
JC reporter Jessica Elgot has been awarded the third Wyn Harness Prize for Young Journalists for an article on mental health issues in the strictly Orthodox community.
Candidates had to write an original article on a section of society which rarely makes the headlines.

BLACKSBURG, Virginia — Frank Beamer wasn't in any great rush to reflect on a celebration of his 29 years as the Hokies' football coach, or anything else but next weekend's game.
Virginia Tech (5-6, 3-4) lost 30-27 to No. 12 North Carolina in overtime on Saturday, and will need to beat Virginia on Saturday to stretch its NCAA-best streak of seasons ending with a bowl appearance to 23.
"We've got one more shot here next weekend," Beamer said.
The day also set up for a classic Beamer victory. With Bud Foster at the controls, the Hokies limited one of the nation's most potent offenses for three quarters, then seemingly gave the game away with three consecutives drives ending in turnovers. Then, as people began eyeing the exits, they forced two turnovers to get right back in.
Touchdowns with 2:54 to play, and 1:07 to play, had Lane Stadium as loud as it has been in years.
"I just wish we could have pulled it out today," Foster, the Hokies' longtime defensive coordinator, said. "That would have been the icing on the cake."
The annual rivalry game will make the third time in four years the Hokies need to win to go to a bowl game. That streak was preceded by one in which Virginia Tech won at least 10 games for eight consecutive seasons.
"We've done some really special things here," said Foster, who played for Beamer at Murray State and has coached with him ever since. "It's unfortunate the last couple of years have not gone like the previous 18 or 19."
Beamer, who had to wipe a tear or two away after making the walk with the team down a street lined with screaming fans to the pregame locker room, was neither oblivious to the emotions, or focusing on them.
"I'm thankful I had such appreciation from the fans today rather than them wanting to run you out of town," he said.
The Tar Heels (10-1, 7-0 ACC, No. 17 CFP) won their 10th in a row and clinched the Coastal Division title, and did so despite blowing a 14-point lead in the final three minutes of regulation.
Virginia Tech tied the game on Michael Brewer's 4-yard, fourth-down pass to Isaiah Ford with 1:07 remaining, and Joey Slye's extra point, but the Hokies had to settle for a 41-yard field goal by Slye to begin the overtime.
Marquise Williams then hit Ryan Switzer for 18 yards on the Tar Heels' first play, and after two runs and a false start penalty put them at the 5, Williams hit Quinshad Davis in the right corner of the end zone.
North Carolina will play No. 1 Clemson in the ACC championship game on Dec. 5.
Elijah Hood turned two Virginia Tech turnovers into fourth quarter touchdowns as the Tar Heels opened a 24-10 lead, sending some fans heading for the exits when Brewer was intercepted a second time.
The Hokies, though, used a takeaway of their own to pull within 24-17 with 2:54 left on Brewer's 8-yard scoring pass to Bucky Hodges, and then got Williams to fumble again on a sack by Luther Maddy.
Brewer then hit Isaiah Ford for 36 yards to the Tar Heels' 12, and after two runs and an incomplete pass gave them a fourth-and-2 at the North Carolina 4, Brewer hit a sliding Ford for the tying touchdown.

text: Naughty Dog, the development house behind the Uncharted and Jax and Daxter series, has created what many have hailed as "the last great PlayStation 3 game." The Last of Us combines action and survival gameplay to tell a character-driven tale about a world destroyed by the Cordyceps fungus, a growth that transforms humanity into zombie-like monsters (the fungus, in fact, is one that appears in the real world and has unusual effects on its hosts). Moving and action-packed, The Last of Us deserves to be in every PlayStation 3 gamer's library.

Of course, I jumped right on this one, too, and defend the leap. This is a charge well worth repeating. It doesn't just make the point that the White House, which advocates more government intrusion into setting wages in the private sector, is hypocritical. It makes a more important point: Even the White House needs flexibility to decide its own pay scale. The White House must know, deep down, that employers must be allowed to determine salaries, based on various factors, not on the abstract arguments of lawmakers and bureaucrats whose goal is gender parity.
In a way, the White House's paying female employees less is the same kind of story as Prince Charles and Al Gore's jetting to global warming conferences on executive jets, making larger carbon footprints in one hour than a humbler non-recycler makes in several moons. These delicious stories don't just reveal Mr. Gore and the Prince of Wales as hypocrites.
Such reports make the larger point: What Prince Charles and Al Gore advocate is simply not workable in the modern world. Prince Charles knows he can't take the slow wagon train to the ecology conference in Copenhagen and get there in time to release his own royal brand of hot air. He knows he has to take a jet. And in so doing, he makes our point for us: Your Royal Highness, your ideas bear little relationship to reality. In the same way, the White House makes our point that government meddling in pay scale issues won't work in real workplaces. Of course, it is tempting to urge female employees in the Obama White House to avail themselves of the president's beloved Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act!
The Readers Digest used to have a column headlined "Laughter Is the Best Medicine." In politics, laughter is lethal. To win the phony gender war, we must address it and show it to be ridiculous. Hilary "Ann Romney Never Worked a Day in Her Life" Rosen helped the GOP immensely in this endeavor. But the Democrats, grasping for something in a year when their man can't run on his record, aren't through with the gender wars.
Mac Donald and Ponnuru are right that the Romney campaign's thrust must be a focus on serious issues, the economy, job-creation, and our treasured liberty. But it can't afford to wave the white flag in the gender wars, and give up the opportunity to expose liberal hypocrisy and unworkability for what it is.

Dukedumb: How a Lightweight Louisiana Racist Came to Spook a Nation
Meacham, Jon, The Washington Monthly
No doubt abvout it, David Duke was a hell of a story. For political reporters, the former Klansman's Louisiana campaigns were relics of the segregationist South, bracing proof that hte oler Confederacy's worst instincts are still alive. For highbrow essayists, Duke emerged as a symbol of the struggle between good and evil in the American mind--a foreboding figure who brought to life our worst economic and racial tensions. In the end, though, Duke turned out to be more Mikey Mouse than Manichean.
This book*, the firest comprehensive discussion of Duke's 1989 state legislative victory, 1990 U.S. Senate race, and 1991 gubernatorial campaign, treats him as more than a passing fancy. Most of the nine men and women who contributed essays--academics, journalists, and activists--subscribe to a similar thesis: Duke is not a sensation unique to Louisiana, an eclectic, populist state. They repeatedly insist that Duke and his brand of race-based campaigning are poised to attract white voters caught in uneasy economic and social circumstances across the country.
Editor Douglas Rose even begins the book with Yeats' apocalyptic "The Second Coming": "And what rough beast, its hour come round at last/ Slouches toward Bethlehem to be born?" It's a sophomoric touch. Racist politics--or any sort of politics based on appeals to fear, uncertainty, and unease--are ancient. Duke is merely the latest in a long line of politicians who counted on dragging the worst out of voters.
So why is Duke no longer a national political figure? The protest candidacy of Patrick J. Buchanan has been used to explain Duke's dismal showing in the 1992 Republican presidential primaries. Buchanan, the conventional wisdom goes, made ethnic resentments the center of his campaign and thus became an acceptable altemative to Duke, the neoNazi and author of a sexual-advice guide for women. Yet even Buchanan faded as Bush steadily slogged his way to the nomination. Anger is hard to sustain in any form, especially in the context of a national political campaign. Duke was a victim of this truth, but foremost he was a victim of his own history.
This book was begun as Duke rode a wave of national publicity and was completed before he withdrew from the 1992 presidential race. Coming now, it's a wet firecracker, but it still raises good questions, intended and otherwise: Where did Duke come from, why did he ultimately fail, and why were so many--including this book's contributors--so sure he wouldn't?
In a way, the contributors have turned out to be victims of their own success. In 1989 several of them gathered to document Duke' s fascist past and eventually formed the Louisiana Coalition Against Racism and Nazism--a political action committee widely credited with unmasking Duke. If the analysis in these pages seems familiar, it's because the coalition did its job well, dissemmating damaging information and casting Duke as an opportunist who remade himself to win office. Today, Duke holds no public office and stands little chance of future electoral success, even in his home state. As one contributor notes, "It is unclear whether he will even muster enough white support to win statewide office; as the recent governor's election has shown, Louisiana's sizable black electorate (27 percent) is a major stumbling block to his larger political ambitions."
Although the authors' portrait of Duke and his world is convincing, it goes further than the evidence warrants in sounding the alarm about Duke's supposed national appeal. In a passage about Duke's only successful campaign for a seat in the Louisiana legislature, where he represented a depressed New Orleans suburb, contributor Lawrence N. …

Toledo police officer involved in collision
A Toledo police officer was involved in a three-vehicle collision Thursday afternoon in West Toledo, officials said.
The crash on North Westwood Avenue, near Dorr Street, was reported at 3:13 p.m., police said.
Two vehicles collided on Westwood and entered Officer Dennis Powers' lane, causing the officer to crash into the wreckage, police Sgt. Joe Heffernan said. What caused the first two vehicles to collide wasn't clear.
No injuries were reported, but Sergeant Heffernan said the police cruiser sustained heavy damage and had to be towed from the scene.
Officer Powers will not be cited, the police spokesman said. No charges had been filed Thursday evening against either of the other drivers, whose names were not immediately available.

Incorporating energy efficiency and renewable energy can help businesses across all sectors in New York become more profitable.
Working together in various communities, New Yorkers can create a better energy future and help the economy grow.
New Yorkers can make their homes more comfortable and cut energy costs.
Talent, innovation, and unique resources available in New York make it a premier place for clean energy businesses to grow.
New York welcomes the new, innovative ideas that will inform policy, protect the environment, and power the future.
April 29, 2013
The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) is offering $400,000 for a qualified institution to create a statewide executive transition program to help drive interested entrepreneurs, investors and other business leaders to new opportunities in the cleantech sector.
The Clean Tech Execs program will be designed for successful business executives and other leaders who are skilled at running a company but may have limited knowledge about the cleantech world. It will expose participants to opportunities in the clean energy technology market, including renewable energy, energy efficiency, cleaner transportation and energy infrastructure, such as energy storage and smart grid.
The program is expected to encourage successful business leaders to start, join or advise clean energy and energy-efficiency businesses, further growing jobs and businesses in the cleantech economy in New York State. Through a competitive process, NYSERDA will provide the funding to a business education or economic development organization to develop the program.
"Governor Cuomo has initiated innovative programs to spur the cleantech economy in New York State, from Innovation Hot Spots to the NY-Sun initiative," said Francis J. Murray Jr., President and CEO, NYSERDA. "The Clean Tech Execs Program will join a portfolio of business-friendly NYSERDA programs, such as our cleantech incubators and the Entrepreneur-in-Residence program, which further the goal of growing businesses and creating jobs in clean energy and energy-efficiency technology."
NYSERDA is seeking proposals for development of the Clean Tech Execs program, which will be a comprehensive and self-sustaining education program and will connect with supporting organizations for lectures, provide a venue for classes, include field trips and organize a capstone project for students. Proposals are due June 19. Applicants can learn more at http://www.nyserda.ny.gov/pon2730.
NYSERDA currently funds several programs that are already helping to grow the cleantech economy in New York State. NYSERDA currently funds six incubators located in Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany, New York City and Stony Brook. The incubators have worked with more than 100 cleantech start-ups, which have created hundreds of new jobs and brought 70 products to market.
In addition, NYSERDA continues to fund the Entrepreneur in Residence Program, which links experienced business leaders with start-up firms looking for mentoring for everything from writing budgets and business plans to seeking investment or a buyer. And NYSERDA is currently working with partners to create three Proof of Concept Centers in New York City and Rochester to help create viable businesses out of clean energy ideas.

Kane Manera is reprising his role as "G" next month on Guiding Light. Look for him to appear on June 2.
For those of you who don't recall, this character was Daisy's former, even boyfriend. He also mugged Ava and was responsible for murdering Tammy. Tough resume.
After Remy beat him within an inch of his life, "G" was exiled back to Australia. The returning character will immediately cause trouble for Daisy and, according to gossip, he may be related to Cyrus in some way.

It's no secret. Everything's made in China. Well, just about everything.
It's no secret. Everything's made in China. Well, just about everything.
To find something made in the USA these days is rare, so rare in fact that ABC World News With Diane Sawyer devoted a special series on its show devoted featuring made in America products.
The national news outlet has also created a supplementary web page devoted to showcasing additional products made in the USA.
Nunda-based Seating Inc. is one of those companies.
When asked how they attracted the attention of the national media, Seating Inc.'s co-owners Doug and Judy Hart said they didn't know. They just got a call from ABC News one day out of the blue.
"It could have been from website search probably," Doug Hart surmised.
About American made seating products, Judy Hart said, "The Chinese competition really, really hit furniture hard. There's very few people that are supplying the product we make that have as much American content as we do. It's all imported."
It wasn't until Betsy Blackard, a sales representative for Seating Inc. who works from Georgia-based Midsouth Associates, happened to come across the site and inform the Harts that their business was online.
While a few assembly pieces that cannot be found in the U.S. are made in Canada, the company is looking at potentially making some products that are fully made in America such as lounge-style seating for various waiting rooms.
"We're pretty passionate about the whole idea," Judy said. "We made a decision quite a few years ago to try and keep as much as we could American made."
Judy added that Chinese products have made an impact on the furniture industry because of its competitiveness.
"You can't compete on price with China. You can't win."
She added that their niche has been finding customers who care about investing in the American economy.
"Thanks to Diane Sawyer, I think that people are becoming a little more receptive to that idea, but it's tough in a tough economy because people only have so much money to spend, so they're very driven by price. So it's a balance."
Doug said that while the recognition is wonderful, more importantly, he hopes consumers will consider that when they buy American made products, they're helping support a way of life for their own neighbors.
Seating Inc. has operated in Nunda since 1989, and currently employs about 20 people. A Lima business, Bears Playgrounds, is also featured on the ABC News website.

1985 Chevrolet Tahoe
The first symptom was my 2004 Tahoe would not start after it had set for 6+ hours, the only way to start it was to hold the gas pedal to the floor which causes a massive amount of black smoke out of the exhaust. The dealer happen to see a code that he said was a fuel error. He interpreted it to mean that the vehicle thought it had E85 fuel when in reality it did not. The dealer has replace the computer system, fuel sensors, check fuel pressure regulator and replaced one air flow sensor without any luck. I took it upon myself to test his theory so I filled it with E85 and the vehicle runs like a champ! However once I put any standard unleaded fuel in it it goes back to it's old ways. Anybody got any ideas.

The Architecture Billings Index (ABI), which reflects the approximate 9- to 12-month lag time between architecture billings and construction spending, and is a leading economic indicator of construction activity, plunged nearly 5 points in June, despite showing signs of stabilization over the last 3 months.
The American Institute of Architects (AIA) reported that the June ABI rating was 37.7, a significant decrease from May's rating of 42.9. This score indicates a sharp decline in demand for design services; however, the new projects inquiry score was 53.8, the fourth straight month with a score in the mid-50s. Any score above 50 indicates an increase in billings.
Additional highlights from the June ABI showed that the regional average for the Northeast was 42.8; for the South, 40.5; for the West, 39.9; and for the Midwest, 36.2. Additionally, the rating for mixed practice was 43.5; multi-family residential, 42.7; commercial/industrial, 39.5; and institutional, 37.0.
"It appears as though we may have not yet reached the bottom of this construction downturn," says Kermit Baker, chief economist at AIA. "Architecture firms are struggling and concerned that construction market conditions will not even improve as soon as next year. There has also been little movement in terms of stimulus funding allocated for design projects having the desired impact of leading to new work."

Job-related Weight Gain: Battling the Bulge at Work
It is a mantra you could repeat in your sleep: eat less, make healthier choices, and get more exercise. But let's face it—you are busy, and even though you have sworn a thousand times that you will lose the 10 pounds you have gained since you started your job, between the doughnuts at every meeting, the vending machine down the hall, and the long hours at the office, it feels like the deck is stacked against you. Here are some tips to help you regain control of your nutrition and your weight. In general, the culprits behind weight gain at work are no different than those that trigger weight gain anywhere else. These include:
Plan AheadAnother major component is preparation. Advance planning can keep you focused and in control. Plan the next day the night before. Prepare meals ahead of time so you can grab them on the go. When you grocery shop, pick up small portions and buy healthy snacks or cereal to keep in your desk. If you have a refrigerator at work, use it to store foods like milk, yogurt, or salad dressing.
Too Much Food or the Wrong FoodsGrabbing fast food for lunch, or skipping it entirely? As you already know, these are dietary no-nos when it comes to your weight loss plan. But a busy lifestyle does not have to mean an unhealthy diet. Here are some tips to help:
- Eat breakfast. You may have more energy in the morning, be able to resist that donut at the meeting, and you won't be starving by lunchtime.
- Buy fresh produce and carry it with you so you always have a healthy snack on hand.
- Use non- or low-fat dairy products, such as yogurt, cottage cheese, cheese, or milk.
- Salad dressings are notoriously high in fat and calories. Try using just one tablespoon of dressing on your lunchtime salad.
- When you buy meat to make your lunch for work, choose the leanest cuts.
- When eating in a fast food restaurant or cafeteria, try ordering a lean roast beef or grilled chicken sandwich, and no super-sizing. Also, order items without cheese, and omit or go light on the mayonnaise.
- Drink more water. If you drink water before a meal, it will make you feel more full.
- Microwave light popcorn
- Whole wheat crackers with peanut butter
- Fresh fruit, plain or with reduced-fat cheese
- Non- or low-fat yogurt
- Carrot and pepper strips with a low-fat dressing or bean spread
- Mixed nuts and dried fruit
- A fresh fruit yogurt smoothie

1923-10-12 Pancho Villa w pts 15 Benny Schwartz, Fifth Regiment Armoury, Baltimore, Maryland, USA - WORLD
1923-10-12 Pancho Villa w pts 15 Benny Schwartz, Fifth Regiment Armoury, Baltimore, Maryland, USA - WORLD. Referee: Harry Ertle. Billed for the championship, Schwartz (109¼) fought a purely defensive battle, clinching at every opportunity, after Villa (110¾) had dropped him in the second round and knocked him through the ropes on three other occasions. Although under terrific pressure in the 15th as Villa looked to find the finisher, Schwartz managed to make it to the final bell. Despite going down by a wide margin on the referee's scorecard, Schwartz made a great many friends when taking the champion's best shots without flinching and generally making a better showing than expected.
On 8 February 1924, a bout advertised as being for the world title between Villa and George Marks went ahead at Madison Square Garden, Manhattan, NYC, New York, despite the prospective challenger coming to the ring weighing 116½lbs. Villa (111lbs) won on points over 15 rounds, but it should not be considered a world title defence.

PJC Vision: The Peace and Justice Center of Sonoma County envisions a world of peace, justice and freedom. It is a revolutionary and empowering vision of a democratic community where differences are respected, conflicts are addressed nonviolently, oppressive structures are dismantled, and people live in harmony with the earth, nurtured by diverse traditions that foster compassion, solidarity and reconciliation. Therefore, we commit ourselves to replace violence, war, racism and economic injustice through active nonviolence as a transforming way of life and as a means of radical change – personally, locally, nationally and globally.
PJC Mission: The mission of the Peace & Justice Center is to inform, support and energize the Sonoma County community to create peace and social justice through active non-violence. We sponsor educational events, publish informative articles on current issues and promote peace and justice related efforts in the community. We support local activist groups by providing meeting space and organizational resources.
We have begun a new project - Freedom from Militarization: Diagnosing and Healing the Moral Injury of Violence. The focus is to address the ever-expanding gray area that exists between military and civilian life that normalizes war and violence. Our emphasis will be identifying and raising awareness of local behaviors and organizations that support the militarization of society. We'll be seeking your involvement and encouragement as we address four main categories: 1) Law enforcement; 2) Local activities that support the military; 3) Local companies which profit from militarization; and 4) Normalization of the military in culture and society.
