DEFINITION of 'Hot Issue'

What a great service. All of our groceries were ready for us when we arrived at the Saratoga Springs Villas. The Garden Grocer had everything we needed (and much, much more).
Food arrived exactly when we did! Couldn't have been more convenient!
It was so great to have our groceries at the hotel when we arrived. however, Delivery was 5 hours early which would have been no problem had they remembered to put the Ubcrustables in the hotel freezer. If buying for a Disney Hotel, remember the refrigerators are very small, we had trouble fitting the large creamer we bought. But it did fit on door.

Religious school loses portion of civil case
A Wayne County religious reform school should compensate a former student who claims a school employee shoved him against a sink, a federal jury in Cape Girardeau decided Wednesday.
However, Mountain Park Baptist Boarding Academy in Patterson, Mo., did not violate federal labor laws when it required Jordan Blair to do chores without pay, U.S. District Judge Charles Shaw ruled on Tuesday.
The jury awarded Blair $20,000 in damages, which will be appealed.
In his civil lawsuit prompting the trial that began Monday, Blair, now 19 and living in Alma, Ark., said he was falsely imprisoned while at the school in 2001. He also said the school's disciplining violated his civil rights and that Mountain Park denied outside communication, limited bathroom breaks and let students sleep as little as five hours a day.
John Oliver, a Cape Girardeau lawyer who represented Mountain Park, said he plans to file a motion to ask the judge to set aside the jury's verdict based on the "misconduct of the plaintiff's attorney."
Most of Blair's lawsuit had been thrown out before the trial began Monday. Oliver said that Blair filed a 242-paragraph petition containing 11 or 12 counts that Shaw ruled against.
Blair transferred from Mountain Park to a sister school, Palm Lane Academy in Florida, but ran away while on an errand with a school worker. Both schools rely on Christian fundamentalist teachings, strict discipline and corporal punishment to work with teenagers with behavioral problems.
Blair's attorney cast Mountain Park as a labor camp where teens are forced to work without pay. The judge called the work "for the educational benefit of the students and not the school."
The Associated Press contributed to this article.

Frankenstein is the classic gothic horror novel which has thrilled and engrossed readers for two centuries. Written by Mary Shelley, it is a story which she intended would 'curdle the blood and quicken the beatings of the heart.' The tale is a superb blend of science fiction, mystery and thriller. Victor Frankenstein driven by the mad dream of creating his own creature, experiments with alchemy and science to build a monster stitched together from dead remains. Once the creature becomes a living breathing articulate entity, it turns on its maker and the novel darkens into tragedy. The reader is very quickly swept along by the force of the elegant prose, the grotesque, surreal imagery, and the multi-layered themes in the novel. Although first published in 1818, Shelley's masterpiece still maintains a strong grip on the imagination and has been the inspiration for numerous horror movies, television and stage adaptations.

Windows 8 pro upgrade review,
This review is from: Microsoft Windows 8 Pro - Upgrade [Old Version] (Software)
I really thought this OS was gonna suck cause of the beta. The beta was just horrid for me, but i bought the upgrade cause it was 15 bucks. Now I have bought 2 licenses. This release is a whole lot better than the beta.
I give it 5 stars cause
-it's noticeably faster than win 7 when booting and shutting down
-some apps launch faster
-metro is nice if you need it
-metro can be bypassed and start button added with the free program "Classic start menu."
-No driver issues as of yet
It feels like a snappy windows 7 with some navigational changes. Just remember to set programs to compatibility mode of your choice if they are acting up. People with 4 cores and up will love this OS. So far so good. a lot of my programs launch faster. Battlefield 3 lagged but set it in windows 7 compatibility mode and now is running fine. will update if anything significant happens.

Partners, local donors, patients, volunteers, staff and dignitaries packed the 1 acre plot, among them KEHPCA representatives, Nyeri Hospice, Laikipia Hospice, Ministry of Health and representatives from Meru County commissioner's office.
A storey building was covered with Ribbons as the ribbon brought strong symbolism. Red represents compassion, blue represents peace, yellow represents joy, purple represents honor and green represents encouragement.
Gladys Mucee the program coordinator gave her opening remarks and thanked everyone who was present for the celebrations. "I just can't express how I feel," she said. "It's been a very emotional day for me, walking around and knowing that every single element here is only here because of the love for Meru Hospice," "We hope after people see this beautiful community treasure will want to be a part of it."Courage, faith and community are three resounding characteristics of the hospice that have gone into this project," she said.
The Meru municipality donated a one acre piece of land for the Meru hospice. Honorable Rahim Dawood, the area Member of Parliament, gave credit to the Meru municipality for such a noble gesture. With a goal of raising about 25 million Kenya Shillings to build, furnish and help in operational costs, the hospice board got support from Honorable Rahim and his family for the initiative. Hon Rahim's Dad died in 2014 due to cancer hence the family decided to commit over 2 million Kenya shillings to the hospice project in memory of their father. The Chief guests of honor were Farooq and Tania who are Rahim's children living in United Kingdom. Every donor and partner was warmly thanked by various speakers as the ceremony continued.
Dr. Killingo who is the Executive Director/Founder of the Meru Hospice outlined the milestones the hospice had gone through and applauded the hospice team saying, "Our Leadership team and staff are truly amazing! They demonstrate the core values of Meru Hospice in how they work with each other, the patients, their families as well as the larger community. We are hoping to be an excellent hospice service."
"It is my fervent prayer and hope that this building will always be symbolic of the heartfelt care and compassion rendered at the Meru Hospice," Honorable Rahim told the crowd. In an interview, he said he hopes his name is worthy of all the wonderful things the hospice represents.
The guests of honor and invited guests had an opportunity to tour the full furnished hospice, cut the ribbons and the ceremony was crowned by cutting of a Cake.
On behalf of the Board, Meru Hospice would like to thank the staff, volunteers, donors, families, friends and community for their support. A special thank you to Honorable Rahim and family who has completed 7 years of dedicated service as a Board member.
The Hospice Core Values: Hospitality, Compassion, Patient centered care, dignity, Integrity, Open and Honest Communication and Excellence are key to our future. Let us travel this journey together.
"We need to bring different health care professionals on board to help elevate Palliative Care. I am looking forward to the opening of a Palliative Care Unit soonest possible in Kiambu hospital" said Grace (Nutritionist- Kiambu County Referral Hospital). Palliative care entails giving holistic care to patients with life threatening illnesses. Team work from clinicians, pharmacists, nutritionist, care givers and family members is essential. Grace has been working with students who come in for practicum from Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) to assist patients in the wards with information on proper nutrition within the hospital.
The five-day workshop that took place on 11th– 15th April at Kiambu County Referral hospital was facilitated by Edith and Joyce – Palliative care nurses from Thika Level 5 hospital. 14 health care workers from Kiambu hospital were taught on various topics on introduction to palliative care course. This was the inception of a conversation on integration of palliative care services in the hospital, held 3 months ago with the Deputy Nurse Manager- Kiambu County Referral Hospital; KEHPCA team and Thika level 5 palliative care nurses.
Thika Level 5 hospital Palliative care nurses were the lead facilitators of the workshop. KEHPCA team, assisted in facilitating a few topics on symptoms and pain management for adults and children, pain assessment, ethical and legal aspects in Palliative Care and Roles of a Palliative Care Oncology. The hospital management provided a conference hall and meals for the trainers and participants during the training.
"This has been the most interesting workshop in my life, I have learnt more on what I am passionate about. KEHPCA and Thika Team have impacted knowledge that will assist us help patients within Kiambu and in the community" said madam Kairu (Nurse in Kiambu Comprehensive Care Center). As a nurse, Kairu enjoys her nursing roles in CCC and hopes that she uses the same practice in the palliative care unit. The interactive session, involved role plays acted by the health care workers to enable them face situations while breaking bad news to patients and their family members."We hope the health county government funds will be allocated to the hospital to help equip the palliative care unit. This will assist us implement what we have learnt within the 5 days workshop" said Immaculate a CCC nurse – Kiambu County Referral Hospital.
Kenya Hospices and Palliative Care Association (KEHPCA) the umbrella body of palliative care services in Kenya, seeks to help more hospitals and hospices by training health care workers on Palliative care. Continuous Medical Education training help to increase knowledge in their daily practice, change perceptions of health care workers on health care practices, educate them on ways of taking care of patients with life threatening illnesses and communicate with the patients.
Different regions in the country suffer different cancer. One of the nurses pointed out that the most popular type of cancer cases they are dealing with around Kiambu County is cervical cancer. The health care workers promised to work as a team, bring more health care workers on board from all departments to help the patients with information and support them to make their lives comfortable.]]>
Kenya Hospices and Palliative Care Association (KEHPCA) is the umbrella body of palliative care services in Kenya. KEHPCA works together with the Ministry of health, government hospitals, Hospices', and Community based centers to integrate Palliative care. The palliative care unit at the Nakuru PGH organized for a half day workshop to sensitize multidisciplinary team of health care workers from paediatric department on the benefits of integrating paediatric palliative care services. "We have realized that there are very few children being referred to our palliative care unit, I hope the workshop will help increase referrals" said Mercy (Palliative Care coordinator- Nakuru PGH)
The session was very interactive and the following areas were covered; communication with children and parents, principals of paediatric palliative care and pain management. The sessions were facilitated by facilitators from the palliative care team and KEHPCA. The facilitators were impressed by the participants enthusiasm; "I am impressed by the group energy and I hope we will continue with this pace even after the workshop" commented one of the facilitators.
Additionally, KEHPCA team visited Nakuru hospice and were encouraged by the developments at the hospice. The hospice has established a training hall and will start providing palliative care and other courses soon. "The training hall is ready; we have finished renovating and equipping it, soon we will start training" said Elizabeth (Nakuru Hospice Director). The hospice is providing several services including; home based care, outpatient and support group. "The biggest challenge we are facing is on financials. We depend on support from both local and international communities and we have organized for a fundraising walk in May this year. We are urging everyone to join us so that we can be able to support more patients" urged Elizabeth.
KEHPCA is ready to assist when called upon by any government hospital and hospice to set up palliative care centers; through training nurses and other health care workers to support patients living with life threatening illnesses all over Kenya.]]>
Participants from the paediatric department fully participated in the interactive and enlightening session. "Taking care of a child needs one to behave like a child" said David (KEHPCA – Senior Programs officer) this statement seemed like a joke to many in the workshop but he meant it with a lot of seriousness. David stated the three languages of children being the body language, play language and spoken language. Understanding what an infant needs may take a long period of time for many and some may end up giving up or interpreting the communication wrongly. Same case would apply to school going children, teens and youths but the bottom line is one should learn to listen and take time to understand their communication.
Songs, facial expression and body language were also mentioned during the workshop as ways of communicating with children. Health care workers were asked to practice the art of living like children while taking care of these children as this will limit cases of living in distress for them. Dr. Ondere was asked to request for writing and reading materials from the hospital management for the children in the ward to assist them in education development. "Toys, child-like paintings for art work and kids television programmes are great distraction avenues for the sick children" said David. Pain management was among the key topics. Health care workers were taught how to identify the level of pain in children and how to manage the different levels of pain.
Spiritual aspects in care for children were discussed given that cases of children and families with different beliefs reject medication and care from the hospital on the basis of their religious beliefs. Dr. Ondere reported that some believers from certain churches refuse palliative care services, chemotherapy and radiotherapy and even believe that morphine kills. This attitude has been one of the greatest challenges that most health care workers have to deal with everyday. Therefore health care workers have to educate patients to demystify these myths. "The spiritual leaders have a role in building hope in the patient's life and thus having him or her in the hospital premises will ensure that such cases are solved" suggested one of the nurses.
Health care workers present at the workshop and the KEHPCA team looked into the way forward to improve Paediatric Palliative Care. The means discussed was through strengthening referral pathways from the wards to the palliative care unit to ensure there is early monitoring on the progress of the patient, improvement on pain management by having proper follow ups and change of attitude towards children for health care workers, facilitate sensitization on the availability of morphine in all wards to manage pain in patients, practice team work and better ways of communicating to patients and family on bad news. Additionally, KEHPCA was also requested to engage health care workers in frequent continuous medical education (CMEs) for continued learning.
Besides training health care workers, KEHPCA team was involved in reviewing some patients together with the hospital palliative care team. This was a great opportunity for the team to be part of the process where advice was given to a young mother and a grandmother who has been taking care of a young boy. The boy recently underwent a brain surgery and had come for review at the palliative care unit. Dr. Kinyanjui began practicing how to communicate with children based on David's presentation earlier during the workshop.He asked the child in a soft child-like voice "unaitwa nani toto?" meaning "what is your name?" The child seemed dull initially but finally he gave a smile after the long conversation.
Put a smile on a child's face and you light up the world around him or her!
Management of patients faced by life threatening illnesses often elicits anxiety in nursing staff. The nurse therefore needs to be equipped with knowledge, skills and attitude to enable them support or cope with such challenging tasks. During the talk, the 7 Cs concepts were highlighted as the key responsibilities of a nurse. They include; communication, coordination, control of symptoms, continuity of care, continued learning, carer support and care for the dying. Palliative care fits well in Virginia's definition of nursing which states, "Nursing is primarily assisting the individual in the performance of those activities contributing to health and its recovery, or to a peaceful death".
The session was very interactive and informative. Those present acknowledged that they are part of the palliative care team in many ways and promised to work together to support the patients in need. "We will continue to raise awareness and have more involvement to ensure our patients do not suffer, "said the CME coordinator.
The hospital is facing a big challenge with limited staffing necessitating task shifting to ensure patients get the desired services. The palliative care unit coordinator operates the palliative care clinic twice in a week since she still has been allocated other duties in the outpatient department. KEHPCA is advocating for more support for palliative care initiatives from the County and hospital administration to ensure full integration of palliative care services in the hospital.
KEHPCA trained a pharmacist who has been very supportive to the palliative care team and has ensured they have the essential palliative care medicines, including liquid morphine in stock. The team has also incorporated a medical officer who plays a key role in provision of services including; prescription of opioids, review of patients and mobilization of resources.
The KEHPCA Senior Program Officer concluded the talk by quoting Maya Angelou (1928) who said,"I learned that people forget what you say, I learned that people will forget what you do but I learned that people will never forget how you made them feel".]]>
To address this gap KEHPCA has trained several health care workers from different hospitals on paediatric palliative care and is conducting Continuous Medical Education (CME) targeting health care workers working in various paediatric departments. KEHPCA's program team conducted a CME at Coast Provincial General Hospital focusing on concepts and pain management in children. "Morphine is very safe in children and has been included in the Basic Paediatric Protocols 2016, let us use it for management of moderate to severe pain in children," said Dr. Kinyanjui, Director of programs, KEHPCA.
Kenya Hospices and Palliative Care Association (KEHPCA), the umbrella body for palliative care services has been supporting integration of these services in various parts of the country in line with the associations' vision; Quality Palliative care for all in Kenya. Palliative care is a human right and should be accessible to all patients and families. The association has set plans to visit various regions in order to advocate for integration and scaling up services. KEHPCA programs' team visited various sites in Coast including the Coast Hospice, Coast General Hospital, Malindi Sub-County Hospital and Kilifi County referral Hospital on the week of 7th March 2016, where they interacted with palliative care providers and hospital administrators.
Malindi Sub-County Hospital has an established palliative care center with one nurse who is fully deployed to work at the unit. She receives support from other team members including a clinical pharmacist, Dr. Aisha, who helps in reconstituting oral morphine solution. "Initially I only used to help them reconstitute morphine but slowly I have come to appreciate that palliative care patients require more support and team work" said the nurse.
The palliative care unit serves approximately 30 patients per month and has been instrumental in data collection especially for non communicable diseases. "Recently, we have noticed changes on cancer trends. Initially we used to attend to many cervical cancer patients but now this has changed to breast cancer which is affecting even men and very young girls. We have shared this information with relevant authorities so that further surveys and research can be carried out to establish the reasons behind these observations and also address the underlying problems. Our assumption is that some cultural issues like early marriage could be a contributing factor" Dr. Aisha added.
Staff shortage is a big challenge in various counties in Kenya. In Malindi the patient: nurse ratio is very high in some instances one nurse managing over 60 patients, this has led to burn out and low staff motivation. "I have over 60 patients in my ward, some of these patients require palliative care but it is not possible to attend fully to all when alone" said one of the palliative care nurses from Malindi sub-county hospital.
KEHPCA team had a meeting with the hospital nursing officer in charge and hospital administrator who agreed to support the palliative care team in different areas including staffing, creating awareness within and outside the hospital. The KEHPCA team was delighted that the unit was active and providing care to patients and families "Recently we received a call from Kenyatta National Hospital regarding a patient who was being discharged, lives in Malindi and requires follow up by palliative care team. If these services did not exist, this patient would have to travel for long distance to get the necessary support." Said Komora – palliative care nurse, Malindi.
KEHPCA team together with the Coast Hospice Program manager, Eric Amisi also visited Kilifi County Referral Hospital where they met a nurse who has been trained and mentored by coast hospice and proving palliative care services on part time basis. The hospital administration has already identified a room within the outpatient department proposed for use in the provision of palliative care services. "We are in the process of reorganizing her duties so that some days she is free to attend to palliative care patients. Once we receive more staff, we will fully release her" said theActing Nursing Officer in charge.
In addition, KEHPCA team conducted needs assessment on legal aspects in palliative care. The findings indicated that there is a huge gap among hospice patients. The survey recommended incorporation of legal aspects in the provision of holistic care in these areas: Will writing, power of attorney, patients' empowerment on health and human rights among others. KEHPCA is working closely with 5 hospices in Kenya to integrate these services. This project will be scaled to other facilities in future. The associations' program team participated in a legal clinic facilitated by Mr. Joseph, a pro bono advocate of the High court, at Coast Hospice. The topic of the day was on power of attorney. Patients who attended the legal clinic participated fully by asking questions and appreciated the information given.
KEHPCA has also been working closely with KMA to sensitize its members on palliative care and pain management. Kenya Medical Association (KMA) is a voluntary membership organization open to all medical and dental practitioners registered in the Republic of Kenya. Currently the association has over 2,000 members countrywide. Doctors play a critical role on the integration of palliative care and due to their busy schedules in the hospitals majority don't participate in the regular continuous medical education sessions (CMEs) within the hospitals. For this reason, KEHPCA has been utilizing KMA sessions to reach out to them. KMA has branches in major towns like Mombasa among others. KEHPCA programs' team in collaboration with Coast KMA branch organized a CME dinner where they discussed concepts of chronic pain and use of morphine in management of severe pain. The session was well attended and very interactive. Those present acknowledged the need to demystify some of the myths regarding morphine and other opioids. " We have so many patients under our care presenting with severe pain. Sometimes, we are not equipped to manage them" said one of the participant.
This reflected the need for the public and health care workers to be educated on the need for palliative care. "KEHPCA should organize more sessions and roll them over the entire country, all doctors need to be trained on proper pain management," Said the KMA Coast division chairman, Dr. Yossa]]>
KEHPCA in collaboration with the Nyeri Provincial General Hospital (PGH) palliative care team organized a one day workshop to sensitize health care workers from Nyeri Hospice and Nyeri PGH on pediatric palliative care. The workshop attracted a multidisciplinary team of 23 healthcare workers which was officially opened by the Acting County Director of health Dr. Nelson Muriu. He termed the workshop as timely since he had also noted that children had been neglected for a long time.
In a retrospective study he conducted at the Nyeri hospice looking at patient data from the year 2011-2012, it was noted that out of approximately 500 patients with cancer, none of them were children. "Do we think that children do not need palliative care?' he asked. He conveyed his gratitude to KEHPCA team for the training and asked for a longer training on pediatric palliative care since there is a lot to be learned.
Participants' expectations included; learning how to take care of patients with palliative care needs, counseling and breaking bad news, pain assessment and management in children.
The facilitators took them through principles of pediatric palliative care, pain management and communication in children.
Dr. Mithamo the pediatrician highlighted management of common childhood cancers and encouraged the healthcare workers to actively facilitate their diagnosis and follow up. Most of the childhood cancer cases end up in Nairobi for treatment due to unavailability of the services in Nyeri County. There is need to start up pediatric oncology services at the Nyeri PGH.
She also noted that children with severe disabilities should receive these services.
"I wanted my patient to get better before referring him to palliative care. I have now learnt that palliative care should be instituted at diagnosis" said a participant. One of the nurses was happy to learn that she does have a role to play in ensuring these children receive adequate palliative care.
The team agreed to work with the Nyeri PGH palliative care unit as well as Nyeri Hospice to ensure children with life threatening conditions receive holistic palliative care.
'Palliative care is everyone's business'.]]>
In April 2016, world leaders will gather in New York to decide on the future of global drug policy, at the first UN General Assembly Special Session (UNGASS) on the topic in two decades. UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon called for this meeting to be a "wide-ranging and open debate that considers all options." But as the preparations continue this week in Vienna at an annual meeting of the Commission on Narcotic Drugs, it is becoming clear that the 'once in a generation' opportunity to rethink the failed 'war on drugs' is unlikely to deliver.

In the just concluded strategic plan meeting held at Grace House Resort from 3rd to 4th March 2016, the Kenya Hospices and Palliative Care Association (KEHPCA) staff and board members mainly focused on the implementation of change in various sections of the previous (2012-2016) strategic plan and implement the change in the new 2017-2021 strategic plan. Jessica Kilonzo and Catherine Muchira from Steps Ahead Consulting facilitated the whole process for the two day program. The process seemed tiring but members were determined to amend the few sections in the strategic plan in order to allow growth in the organization and see KEHPCA's vision better accomplished.
KEHPCA members had high expectations for the organization to continue leading in offering Quality palliative care for all in Kenya and hopefully in the near future all counties will have an operating palliative care services for accessible, affordable and acceptable services. According to Bill Clinton, 'the price of doing the same old thing is far higher than the price of change' therefore, KEHPCA took their time despite being a long process in amending and incorporating change made on the document ,building up more ideas on the current strategic plan.
A Strategic plan is a document used to communicate with the organizations goals, actions needed to achieve those goals and all other critical elements developed during planning exercise. It is a document that uses a systems approach that starts with the end in mind or outcome. The lead facilitator, Jessica helped members to identify outcomes and the activities that were needed to achieve them. Members felt it was time to encourage leadership in palliative care development across the country by identifying champions to assist in palliative care management in all the hospitals. Recently, KEHPCA participated in an assessment programme with the American Cancer Societywhere the results showed that KEHPCA is leading at 93% in maturing though there was need to work on pioneering as an organization in order to strike balance in growth at all levels. "The strategic plan ensures that an organization is able to get feedback from organization members when they share the same vision" said Jessica Kilonzo (Steps Ahead consultant).
Organizations fail due to ignorance and assuming that a strategic plan is only made for official purposes but not to be followed where small groups, and other organizations follow suite butKEHPCA chose to embrace change and make amendments in the strategic plan in order to boost better performance in the next five years to come. KEHPCA hopes to be a palliative care regulatory body in Kenya where change will be felt in palliative care and be integrated in the counties' health sector so that everybody in the country can access quality palliative care.
Let us be the change that we want to see!
Health care has been devolved and is being managed by the county governments. Palliative care being everyone's business compelled Kiambu County- Health management team officials to make it their business to understand the importance of palliative care during their meeting held on 16th February 2016 at Thika Level five hospitals. Dr. Asaph Kinyanjui – Director of Programs from Kenya Hospices and Palliative Care Association (KEHPCA) made a brief presentation about the palliative care services, achievements of KEHPCA working with Thika level five and other level four hospitals within Kiambu County. He also gave the recommendations to the committee members who seemed impressed and encouraged to support the integration of palliative care in the county's health strategy. "We acknowledge that health care has been devolved and the counties need to own this initiative for us to get the desired goals" said one of the members.
Thika Level five Medical Superintendent Dr.Toro, who chaired the meeting, appointed Dr.Evelyne Kimani –Director of Programs Kiambu County to work closely with KEHPCA and other stakeholders to ensure that the integration of Palliative Care issue in the county's strategy is implemented. This will ensure that there is continuous education for health care workers and services available at all levels of healthcare in the county. KEHPCA left with the hope that the devolved Kiambu County will embrace the noble initiative to ensure that the quality of life of the affected people and their families are improved within and without the County.
In addition, KEHPCA is planning to work with all other counties to ensure they buy in and support integration of palliative care at all levels of health care. The association will continue working with the Ministry of Health to ensure the necessary frameworks are put in place to ensure patients receive quality services.

Coming To America: TOMS Brings The Charity Home
Photo: Via Racked
We've always loved TOMS — mostly for the do-gooder mentality, but also because the kicks are just so darn comfortable. After all, a girl can't strut in stilettos every hour of every day, and these canvas slip-ons provide the perfect opportunity to slip into something more casual. And, if we get to feel like we're doing our part to help out someone in need, that's just the icing on the cake.
Now, the Venice, California-based company is rolling out another charitable initiative, and it's one we can really get behind. For the first time, TOMS will be lending a hand to children, right here in America: Founder Blake Mycoskie says he expects to donate a whopping one million shoes across the states by 2014. And, in exchange for sales of the eyewear line, he'll even be helping visually-impaired adults gain access to quality eye care. As if we needed another reason to stock up on comfy kicks. (Racked)

Where to stay.

Thanks Ronko.....we ended up NOT staying, just visiting, eating and shopping the art fair. We should have scoped out lodging while we were there (for future reference)....but....we didn't. So I'll then have to use your Chamber suggestion. Btw, for anyone else researching Bayfield, Maggies and the Wild Rice restaurants were awesome. thx, Colette

Don't know if you made it over to Madeline Island - you should -- on the island their are places to stay and eat -- The Pub - Lotta's(fantastic) - Bell Street - etc. also you might consider coming back for AppleFest the first weekend in October!

I've stayed at a few places in Bayfield but haven't found that "perfect" spot yet. We've stayed at Gruenke's which is a convenient location but accommadations were just so so. Last time we stayed at the Seagull Bay Motel - location was okay, nice view but not impressed with the motel itself. The best place we've stayed at so far is the Thimbleberry Inn B & B but it's a little ways out from Bayfield. Great views/wonderful breakfasts! We've tried to get reservations at the Bayfield Inn which is right down town but haven't had any luck on the weekends we wanted - same goes for the Winfield Inn. This year we are going for Applefest weekend and we are staying at the Apostle View Inn. I usually review my lodgings on tripadvisor if you're interested in checking there. PamT
Report Abuse
Since it won't be long until it's leaf peeping time/Applefest I thought I'd do a follow-up on the Apostle View Inn. This hotel is part of the Winfield Inn "group" of lodgings. The Apostle View is a couple of miles outside of Bayfield itself and though the view is nice the hotel leaves a lot to be desired. Thin towels, rooms need some tender loving care and darkening curtains since the yard light is so bright outside. Believe me if the light bothers you you'll be putting the bedspread up over the window like we did. If you go over Applefest the hotels all require at least 2 nights stay so if you don't particularly like your accommodations your kinda stuck.
We've decided to forgo the Apple Fest this year and made our annual trip to Bayfield this summer instead but did not stay overnight. Also, we ate breakfast at Gruenke's this year and once again were disappointed. We won't go back - terrible service, mediocre food and the place could use a decent cleaning IMHO.
On a brighter note we did include Duluth and the northshore in our trip this summer and LOVED the Bluefin Bay Resort in Lutsen. We'd love to go back and stay longer than 1 night - what a view!

South Africa's Julius Malema talks to Al Jazeera
28 Jan 2010 00:41 GMT
Thousands of Zelaya's supporters rallied under a hot sun and police supervision at the airport to bid their former leader farewell.
Zelaya's four-year term was to have ended on Wednesday, the same day Lobo was sworn in during a ceremony attended by few international dignitaries.
Lobo's first act upon taking office was to sign a decree giving amnesty to the soldiers, politicians and judges behind the June 28 coup against Zelaya.
He said the measure - first proposed months ago in failed mediation talks in Costa Rica backed by Washington - was needed as part of a process of national healing.
Lobo, 62, replaces a conservative interim government headed by Roberto Micheletti, which was not recognised by other countries after the coup.
Arturo Valenzuela, the US assistant secretary of state for western hemisphere affairs, was among the guests at the presidential swearing-in ceremony - a sign of Washington's support for Lobo.
Others included presidents Fernandez, Ricardo Martinelli of Panama, and Ma Ying-jeou of Taiwan, as well as Francisco Santos, the Colombian vice-president.
But leftist governments across the region, including powerhouse Brazil, broadly reject his route to power, seen as stemming from and potentially legitimising the coup in a region with a painful history of political upheaval and military rule.
"For Brazil, the situation has not changed. For now, Brazil does not recognise Lobo's government," an official in Brazil's foreign ministry told the AFP news agency.
Zelaya has been holed up in the Brazilian embassy since sneaking back into Honduras in September, following his forced deportation by soldiers acting under orders from the supreme court.
Lobo, who was elected in controversial November polls called by Micheletti, faces several challenges to repair the damage from Zelaya's overthrow.
The most immediate ones are filling state coffers starved of trade revenues and foreign credits, and engineering Honduras' return into the family of Latin American nations outraged by the June coup.
Honduran politicians and senior judges said they conspired to topple Zelaya because he was threatening the constitution by trying to stay in power beyond his single permitted four-year term.
A Honduran judge on Tuesday dismissed all charges against six military commanders who helped organise the coup and congress was expected on Wednesday to approve an amnesty for Micheletti and all involved in Zelaya's removal.

Silver Thaler Coins were first minted in Bohemia during the early 1500's in Joachimsthaler where a large silver deposit was found and mining began. Joachim, the father of the Virgin Mary, is portrayed on these first Thaler. The name "Thaler" comes from the Czech "Thal" (Tal) which means "dale" or "valley" and refers to those who live or come from the valley. The neighboring valleys of the region were found to also be rich with silver and more silver mines were started. This was followed by assayers and a wide variety of designs for the thaler began being minted regularly and used in central Europe.

The size and purity of the silver thaler came about as a result of the overall debasement of silver coins throughout Europe. The silver content of Europe's coins had hit an all time low. Some historians cite the seemingly perpetual state of war that was going on during the 1400's and others point towards the lack of new silver reserves. Regardless there were a number of reasons which resulted in the devaluing silver coinage throughout Europe. Italy responded by striking the silver Lira in 1472. These weigh more than 6 grams while the older silver coins of Europe were closer to 4 grams. Then in 1474 the liras were released weighing 9 grams. Then in 1484 the Archduke Sigsmund of Tirol began a new trend in coinage by minting the half Guldengroschen which weigh about 15.5 grams.
The first silver thaler sized coin was called the "Guldengroschen", which means 'great gulden' in German and nicknamed "guldiner", followed the trend of minting larger coins. The "gulden' (golden) were the gold coins used by Austria. The guldiner were sized to have the same value as the much smaller guldens. These first guldengroschen silver coins weigh 31.93 grams and are made of a 93.75% silver alloy. They contain 29.93 grams of silver and were minted during 1486 in Hall from silver mined in Schwaz.
The first Joachimsthaler Guldengroschen silver coins weigh one ounce, or 27.2 grams, and contain 25.984 grams of silver. This makes them 95.5% fine silver. The thalers standardized by the Holy Roman Emperor are called "Reichstaler" and were minted primarily in Prussia and northern Germany from 1566 to 1750. The Reichstaler were defined to have 25.984 grams of silver and set as the coin of account. The most famous of the silver thalers is the Maria Theresa Thaler which are sometimes referred to as "MMT".
The Maria Theresa Thaler was first minted as regular currency by Austria in 1741. From 1740 to 1780 Empress Maria Theresa ruled Austria, Hungary, and Bohemia. After the Empress had passed away in 1780 the Maria Theresa Thaler was still issued in her memory and continued to bare the 1780 date on them. In 1858 Austria was going to be recoining their currency and Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria proclaimed on September 19, 1857 that the Maria Theresa Thaler was an official "trade coin". Therefore when the thaler was dropped from Austria's currency the Maria Theresa Thaler was still minted. The Maria Theresa Thaler continues to be minted as a bullion coin and in 2000 it was estimated that around 389 million have been produced since it was revalued in 1751 during the Bavarian Monetary convention.
Spain created the 8 Reel silver coin to match the thaler. The Spanish 8 reel later became the Peso and new silver standard for American coins. The United States silver dollars were created to be eaqual in silver content. The term "Dollar" was disseminated from the Thalers. The Dutch called the thalers "Daalders" and these were used for trading including the New World town New Amsterdam which eventually became New York.
The Dutch Daalder that was equal to the thaler was only issued by Zaltbommel of the seven United Providences of the Netherlands in 1582. There are three varieties, two of which are not dated. These weigh 29.03 grams and 88.5% fine silver and contains 25.69 grams of silver. It was equivalent to 30 Zaltbommel stuiver coins however it contained more silver than the other providences 30 stuvers.
Holland issued other Silver Daalders from 1555 to 1697. The Lion daalder or "Rijksdaalder" is one of the better known Dutch silver coins used in the New World. These daalders vary in silver content from the thalers as well as with silver Dutch Daalder varieties. In Scandinavia the thaler also became widely used and called the "daler". In English the thaler was called "dollar" for over two hundred years before the United States started minting money in 1792.
