The shield shows the three provinces which make up the
region: Elqui, Limari and Choapa. The dots on the map correspond
to their seats, I guess. There's also three stars, a fish on a
stylized river, a book, a cornucopia, a bunch of grapes and a flower.
According to Gustavo Tracchia, the
flag background is very dark blue.

I received the information from Coquimbo regional government about
7 or 8 years ago I believe that image was also available in one of the
8 issues of Flag Report [frp]
that were available in the net and with complete image information.

Before she fully ventured into the business of secondhand clothing, Aminah was preoccupied with farming. She still does some farming to supplement her minimal earnings.
Aminah mostly sells children's and women's clothing and her clients have mostly been women from the locality she operates from. Her good human and customer relationship skills have lent that much needed countenance as she operates her business.
In general terms, the problem of inadequate capital has been Aminah's main undoing throughout these years of operation. With this loan, Amina is optimistic that her business will make headway. She is looking at buying more secondhand clothing to sell to her ever-increasing clientele.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Love this vacuum!!
By Maggie
from Memphis, TN, USA
I have a German Shepard that doesn't know she is a dog. She is on my bed or one of the coaches all the time. This is the best thing I have EVER used to get her hair off furniture and anything else. Half the time I just keep it right beside my bed. It is wonderful and light as a feather. I wish I had one for every room but It has a nice long cord and I added another so it will go almost all over where she is allowed to go. You will not be disappointed..
One big suggestion
By all4paws
from Liberty, PA, USA
This is very powerful and lightweight. Easy to use. My suggestion--have the air blow out the back end of the unit. It currently blows the air out of both sides blows everything around everything you're trying to pick up. Frustrating.
Almost the vac I've been looking for!
By Kjell66
from Los Angeles, CA, USA
This is a great little vacuum; powerful, light weight, long cord. The only drawback I found is that it blows debris around before you can vacuum it up when in close quarters.
Love it!
By Shan07
from Undisclosed
This vacuum is super convenient for quickly cleaning up dry spills. The hard attachment is perfect for cleaning spilled cat litter and food, while the rubber attachment work wonders for removing cat hair from the couch! So much more convenient than wrangling up the large vacuum just to clean up a small mess. Also, the velcro cord wrap is very convenient for quickly wrapping the cord to protect it and make the vacuum last longer. This handheld vacuum is also super easy to clean. I would definitely suggest this product for anyone with pets, particularly cats!
Great little vacuum!
By Kgreen
from Chicago, IL, USA
Love this little vac....the only thing I would have wanted is a shorter cord. I use this in my small bathroom since this is where I keep my kitty's litter box, etc. The cord on the vacuum is really too long for the space I needed it for but it hasn't stopped me from using it and it does an excellent job!
By Stacy
from Vermont, USA
I love this vacuum! I have used this on my couch, carpeted stairs, blankets, clothing, and with the hard nozzle to pick up stray cat food and kitty litter. I really like not having to drag out the full size vacuum for a small job. This does a better job on my couch than my *full size vacuum ever did. One morning my lint roller ran out of sheets and I was able to use this vacuum on the pants I was going to wear that day, worked like a charm. This being a hand held vacuum it does require some effort on the users part but in my experience most cleaning does and it does such a great job it is well worth the effort! *my full size vacuum is not a Bissell, please do not take this a remark about their full size vacuum product.
By Fritza
from Phoenix AZ
I love animals but hate the hair! This is by far the best item I've ever purchased! Love it so much. Thank you for creating the perfect pet hair remover.
Hassle-free and a company with a soul
By torwwwoolf
from Ester, Alaska
This machine is a dream. No more dragging that huge cannister; the rubber nozzle cleans easily, and refreshes the carpet nap on the stairs. Inexpensive, free shipping. AND the best thing is Bissel's committment to shelter animals via donating part of purchase to their animal rescue Foundation. Bissel should be a model for other corporations.
Pet Hair Eraser
By Orvii
from Centreville, VA, USA
All I can say is that it is wonderful! At last I can vacuum stairs without having to haul a full sized cannister with me.

"Wicklow Park" Wicklow Mountains by mvtouring
Wicklow Mountains Travel Guide: 3 reviews and 16 photos
It was day three for us in Ireland and our first day with own transport. We set out from Dublin early morning and was making our way down to Waterford through the Wicklow National Park and over the Mountains. It is a lovely road to take, but I will always remember my sister saying ........ I though Ireland was all green and hilly, this looks like semi-desert area to me .................... we had a good laugh and she was happy when later on in the day the green hills started rolling in welcoming us to Ireland.

Re: squeaky filter
A drop of WD40 and a Q tip on the threads of the filter should take care of the squeak. I just took care of a tight lens mount, this way. Just don't use too much or get any on the filter's glass.

"bianchis's new Guyana page" Top 5 Page for this destination Guyana by bianchis
Guyana Travel Guide: 421 reviews and 714 photos
Formerly British Guiana, Guyana member of the Commonwealth of Nations. Is located on the northeast shores of South America. English is spoken.
Because of crime, It is recommended that you travel with an organized tour or with someone who lives there. Take a trip with the ferry down the Berbice river or the Demerara or the Essequibo river. The connections are pretty good and its a good way to get further into the country.
You will see Guyana's rain forest creatures: lizards, iguanas colourful birds, snakes and maybe even a bush tiger. Centrepiece of all this natural beauty is Kaieteur Falls, five times as high as Niagara and noted for its shimmering rainbows in the mist and sunshine of the jungle.

Hi Bianchi, I met many interesting people in Guyana during my stay in the early 70's.. Searched everywhere for old photos of the George Hotel in Georgetown, I guess it's long gone - Gee, I could tell some stories about this place! Best wishes, Rafe
hi sylvia, i love your documentary of guyana. it is an interesting country. I 'm from the bahamas and I have some friends who are guyanese they are lovely, and they are of india descendent.
I love your Guyana page, you have planted a seed in my head.
HELLO SYLVIA! Your Guyana page is full of useful info and beautiful photos! Made me want to travel there, which is something I've already planned though haven't decided yet when. Happy Birthday wishes from Finland on your special birthday!
I think Guyana is worth a visit. Thanx for the info and nice pics. GRTZ
It's always great to read about those off-the-beaten-track places! Thanks for sharing!
You clearly love this country, making your page a pleasure to read. Especially like having a book suggestion - it's on my winter reading list.
I have always thought that Guyana would be an interesting place to visit. Thanks for the photos and tips.
that country must always be in your heart of hearts, Sylvia! Seems to be very special, esp. for a gypsy-born-bes! Love falls but not that bobbing boat!!
What would you say if I had the opportunity to ride the jungle rivers on a boat for 3 weeks? I would be doing volunteer medical work in rural areas..any tips or ideas?

Revolutionary Road Review
""I Want To Feel Things. Really Feel Them.""
November 24th, 2010
Revolutionary Road is one of the glitziest depressing movies I've ever seen. The film wanders around the world of its characters, loudly presenting every issue at hand. On a positive note, it is well-handled, smartly-balanced, and precise with what it wants to say. The film bypasses conventional detours, presenting instead a realistic, throbbing viewpoint. Unfortunately, the movie is, how shall I put it...boring. I use that word in severe risk of sounding juvenile in my critique, but I hope the expansion of that critique proves otherwise.
Let me place the film where it stands. It's 1950's America. Frank and April Wheeler are happily married in the most modular way--they have the perfect home, perfect community, perfect kids. They live life "the American way". They aren't happy, though. Frank hates his job; April hates the routine. Spontaneously, she suggests that they leave for Paris. She will get a job there, and he will have time to figure out what he really wants to do with his life. They start planning their move. Work ties, miscommunication, and an undeniable sense of uncertainty create problems between both Alice and her dream and her husband.
The big selling point with Revolutionary Road is the reuniting of Titanic stars Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio. I'll be the first to say that I felt they had little chemistry in that film, and they don't have any in this one either. Chemistry, however, isn't exactly a necessity in a film like this. Each star shines individually and neither outplay each other. Winslet gives the better performance, but, then again, her character is better written.
The camerawork for this picture is intensely intimate. The film never shies away from lingering on shots. The framing and colors are beautifully under-saturated. The rhythm of the picture is engrossing. The score is immersively rich. Revolutionary Road boasts many solid technical achievements.
Underneath every emotion in this picture, there is a consistent theme: breaking from conformity. Alice is upset that they have "bought into the same, ridiculous delusion" as everyone else about what they 'need'. What inspires every emotion in the picture is a desire to achieve a personal definition. They want to break free from conformity, but their ties with it hold more than they want to admit. They have been shaped by their fears of risk. This battle throughout the whole film is intriguing.
BUT. The filmmakers don't stick to this theme. The film wanders endlessly around trivial emotions about their love for each other, abortion, neighbors, and their breaking relationship. While all of these matters do come into play, the picture overemphasizes their individual worth. The film is really about their own personal battles, and should become reflected in these elements. Because the movie channels the reverse (using the underlying problem--conformity--to reflect the more generic issues--love, relationships, etc.), nothing pushes the movie. Nothing supports its ventures.
THAT is why the picture seems so tedious. The central point to this picture becomes scattered. Scenes drag on and on and on. We see things coming minutes before they are ever played out. Nothing ever catches us by surprise or sweeps us into emotional chaos. Revolutionary Road is so precise with its details that it leaves out the broad strokes of purpose and meaning.
This is a complex picture that drools with appeal--from its Oscar-caliber names to its high production values. Its complexity was its own curse. Revolutionary Road is a self-obsessed picture that secures solid results on many levels, but falls short on some of the most basic. This is a strongly-executed, misdirected picture.

Reviews for OK Save A Dog
As an animal advocate, I have great respect for this rescue. They go above and beyond to provide a safe haven for those In their care. They provide a wonderful environment for the animals and have strict adoption requirements. All the dogs receive great medical care..all are spayed/neutered prior to being made available for adoption. Medical care, regardless of what the need might be, is provided. They do not have any paid staff..Kim and Sunshine work tirelessly and depend on their faithful volunteers and donors. They deserve to have a five star rating without question.
I so respect the work that is done saving pets at Ok Save a Dog. I am a proud supporter of what they do. It is my favorite charity and help them as much as I can.

I don't know of any changes I could recommend. They probably could use more hours in each day and more funds to provide for the ones in their care. I live in another part of the state, so I help support them financially as much as I can.
Thank YOU Carol
I have witnessed numerouse times the heartfelt love and devotion they have for the dogs. They go above and beyond to help find homes and fosters.
The work done by this rescue group is heart warming. I've read story after story about the dogs they've saved. I love the updates on the dogs who found new hames and families through them

Review by Becky

Great products works as needed.
We bought this because our dog kept running off. We were able to easily train him and it works great. My only problem is that the button on the side fell off. I tried to glue it back on and it stuck the button down so it would keep sounding the beep. I took the glue off and was able to put the button on and it stayed for the most part. Today the kids lost the button. Our remote is virtually useless now. I would love to be able to replace the button and not have to replace the whole set up.
I'm sorry to read that you are having trouble with the side button on your remote trainer! Please know that the SD-105 is backed by a 1 year warranty with proof of purchase. To find a solution for your scenario, please call our Customer Care Center directly at 1-800-732-0144. Our office hours are Monday through Friday 8 A.M. – 8 P.M. ET and Saturdays 9 A.M. – 5 P.M. ET.

great product
Works fine for my great dane..but the batteries in the collar don't last that long about 2weeks
We're very glad to hear that the trainer is working out so well for you, Andrew, but sorry to hear that your batteries did not hold up very long. Please ensure that you either turn off the receiver collar or remove the batteries from it when it is not in use. This will definitely conserve battery life for as long as possible. If left on continuously, this will drain the battery much quicker than usual.

Very good product
I have had this collar for about 2 1/2 years for our GSD. He's wonderful but does not always listen. This collar has made him into a good walker on the leash. Thank goodness as he's very strong. We needed to replace the transmitter once and your company did it free of charge. Now I'm ready to order another as he broke the collar part today........... Great product all in all. Thank you for great service!
SPORTDOG REPLY: Thank you for your positive feedback. As pet owners ourselves, we are always happy to hear how our pet products have made you and your pet happier.

Changed my life!
I adopted a retired champion Wire Fox Terrier who had lived his life in a kennel. I also have 3 toy dogs and Terrier wants to play and had no idea that he was terrifying them when he would "jump" them - frequently. Why it took me a few months to figure out that a training collar was in order, I have no idea. Ordered this one after hours of reading on line descriptions and product reviews. E-collars tend to stop functioning and imperative was buying one from a reputable manufacture who will stand behind their product and Sportdog is that company. I was a little apprehensive about this model because it doesn't have a vibrate feature and so many reviews I read had said that they had never even had to use the shock feature because the audio cue followed by the vibrate was enough to correct their dog's behaviour.
The collar was easy to ready for operation and I shocked my own throat until I found a level I knew would not harm or frighten my dog. It took a bit of experimentation to get the hair on his throat to a short enough length where the collar was effective but that was easy. I cannot stress enough how FEW times I have had to use the short stimulation- under 10 since I got it, and never the long shock. He got the message immediately (I added a sharp "Aggggh!" verbal warning because the word "no" means nothing to him.) and life has been a dream for me and his 3 sisters ever since. No exaggeration - this collar worked like magic for us. Now when he shows any undesirable behaviour, the audio cue and my verbal command are enough to stop it immediately. He wears the collar most days but I almost never have to use it. The collar has never bothered him nor have the prongs ever left any marks on his throat. He seems perfectly comfortable in it. I LOVE the lanyard attached to the controller which I knew I had to have when I was looking. The batteries last more than a month and are very inexpensive. I cannot praise this collar highly enough!!!!

This is a decent collar. The range isn't as far as we need. The batteries are drain really fast.

older model sd-105/s
does each transmitter have their own frequency and will they overlap and cause both receivers to respond and shock both dogs from one transmitter? or can the transmitter frequency be reprogrammed so the frequency doesn't overlap?
SPORTDOG RESPONSE: This is a great question. On most of our transmitters you can adjust the transmitter channel so that you could have 2 transmitters on the same channel if you wanted to be able to control more than transmitter to control 1 collar receiver. The SD-105/105S/350 does not offer this capability. There is around a 1 in 50,000 chance that 2 transmitters would share a channel. If this has happened to you, give us a call at 800.732.0144 and we can get you fixed up.

This electronic version is available now because of the need for educators and the public to respond to Bush's proposed legislation. http://www.pipeline.com/~rgibson/rouge_forum/bushattackHS.htm The Bush Attack on Head Start: "What This Initiative is Attempting to Do" by Gerald Coles, September 2003 Despite his numerous cameos in classrooms, where he puts on his compassionate conservative demeanor, George W. Bush's actions show a very different picture. As governor of Texas, for example, he used a surplus in state funds to give tax breaks to his oil-rich friends instead of using the money to provide health insurance for all poor children; his indifference to the poor contributed to ranking Texas second highest among states in percentage of hungry children. In the White House, his deep cuts in food stamps, child nutrition and foster care just scratch the surface of his pitiless legislation affecting the young. I have previously described Bush's actions as following the "W Principle," that is, in a compassionate conservative hierarchy, one rises to a maximum level of cruelty. In the relentless application of the W Principle to children, a recent example is Head Start, an imperfect program that has nonetheless a documented record of helping poor pre-school youngsters. Why, instead of taking readily-apparent steps that could increase the program's quality and outreach, does Bush want to go in the opposite direction and destroy it?

An image taken from a video that was shot by a man holding an iPhone before, during and after he was hit by lightning (Video: SevereStudios).
A storm chaser filming severe weather in South Dakota was hit by lightning and survived. It was all caught on video.

A storm chaser filming severe weather in South Dakota was struck by a bolt of cruel irony from Mother Nature on Tuesday when he was hit by lightning.
According to SevereStudios Storm Chasers, Scott Sheppard was chasing a storm cell in Fairburn, South Dakota during a week of violent storms in the region , when a lightning strike hit his arm that was dangling outside the window.
The incident was caught on an iPhone. (WATCH THE VIDEO HERE )
The video begins with Sheppard pulling off to the side of the road to film a rainbow. After a few seconds of filming the naturally painted sky, a piercing crack is heard before the camera bolts upwards and a cloud of red dust and earth puffs up around him.
"The strike hit his arm and then traveled down to the ground and blew a hole in the pavement," SevereStudios wrote in the YouTube description for the video. "The lightning also disabled his vehicle and a passing car, both of which had to be towed."
Amazingly, Sheppard has a "sore arm but is otherwise OK."
It's possible that Sheppard's vehicle saved his life -- and it hasn't nothing to do with "rubber tires,"
Inside a metal vehicle (and not a convertible) "a person is shielded by the metal of the car and lightning would be safely conducted around the people inside," Dr. Richard Blakeslee and Dr. Monte Bateman wrote during a 2011 NASA chat. "This is (known) in physics as a 'Faraday cage.'"
As of Thursday afternoon, the video has viewed more than 480,000 times since being posted on May 27,

Hello there:
who's name was the home in as of May 2005? When did the title change?
She accepted the agreement which included her getting the house on Jan. 3, 2007, and the divorce was final 30 days later. It took six weeks or so from the date of divorce for her to actually get title. The agreement stating she got the house had been under negotiation for six months or so, but it was other details that had to be worked out. Her keeping the house was never in doubt so far as I was concerned.
Hello again:
beneficial possession and ownership are not the same thing, although they typically go hand-in-hand in a normal transaction.. For federal income tax credit purposes, ownership did not terminate until the court awarded the property.
That said, have you considered your eligibility for the $6,500 tax credit? Based on what you have said, there is a good chance that you would qualify.
I realize that this may not be what you had wanted to hear, but I do hope that you understand my philosophy that I cannot help people unless I tell them the truth, regardless of whether it is "good" news or "bad" news. Let me know if I may be of further assistance. Thank you.

Check out my testimonials below...
Are you a Color Pencil Artist or Zentangle Artist?
I got a letter from Carola Angrick Nix who is a colored pencil artist. She used clipboards to hold onto her paper as she colored. The large clipboard was slippery on top of my easel.
This was her reply:
"Hi Danette, . I used an all purpose glue to attach it to the back. The liner is not the thin kind but a thicker brand I bought a Walmart. It works great even with the large drawing board and I have ordered a birch wood panel 24x30 inches for a new drawing board to used with your easel."
I just heard from a pencil artist that did a piece that was 30" high hanging over the edge of the table without any problems. She attached her paper to the wood using a clip board.
First, it is lightweight and portable with a built-in carry handle that makes it easy for you to take to classes.
Second, It rotates your work 360° so it turns your piece for you it can turn your piece for you because it's top rotates on ball bearings. This saves you time from having to constantly pick up your piece to turn it to the area you want to work on. Easy to operate and maneuver.
Third, it's adjustable and enables you to elevate your work to 3 different heights. (This is important for wood burners because the elevation allows the heat from the pen to rise up, which keeps most of the heat away from your fingers).
In addition to the 3 levels, it can lay flat for those that chip carve or carve in the round, while all the time it can move your piece in a complete circle for you as you carve.
Lastly, it's wonderful for those that have disablilites and limited mobility. The different elevations bring your work closer to you, instead of you having to lean forward. Plus, it can help your neck, back, hand and wrist avoid stress and strain.
This makes a great Gift!
and I will use what is available at the time.)

Dear Danette:
I received your table top easel today and was delighted to discover how light weight it is. I've been schlepping around awkward drawing boards for years. I love your easel and plan to use it for colored pencil drawing. The lovely thing about your easel is that I can see myself taking it wherever I go, whether from room to room or when I'm traveling. I can even use it in the car during driving trips! Thank you so much!
I saw your advertisement in Ann Kullberg's most recent Colored Pencil Magazine online.
PS: I've been sitting in my living room with my easel in my lap drawing for about 2 hours and have none of my usual aches and pains from sitting in one position for so long. This purchase was a winner!
Barbara Minor
Your product will be a constant companion any time there is any burning that needs to be done.
I found you through the advertisement in the second "Pyrography" magazine from Fox Chapel.
Thank you for all of your help and personal attention.
Yours in Christ, M. Bruce H.
I just ordered one from her and LOVE IT!!!
I've been burning for about 5 years now, and to get the angle needed to not burn my fingers, I've been stacking extra wood and or different sized flat boxes against the edge of a table!!
Her little creation sits on a flat table, but has different settings/angles depending on your taste and makes burning FUN! It's easy to transport. I think everyone should give it a try. Especially if you're a burner who spends hours at it like me. JO "Little Chipper"

Is Technology Disconnecting You From Your Kids?sandymaple
I know a woman who, judging by the frequency of her tweets and Facebook status updates, spends a lot of time in front of her computer. This woman is also a stay-at-home mom of two young boys. While I admire her in many ways, a recent status update from her made me wonder just how much she and her children are missing out due to her desire to be constantly connected to the outside world. Her update read something to the effect of, "Joe is trying to braid my hair and I think he's pulling out more than he's braiding."
Sure, it's a sweet moment between a mother and child. But it was marred, in my opinion, by the fact that she was busy telling her Facebook friends about it rather than focusing on the moment with her son.
Dr. Mark Goulsten has written a piece at Huffington Post in which he laments just this sort of thing. Technology has created a world where truly busy parents and those who only think they are busy are missing out on so much. With our ability to instantly connect with the world via email, texting, blogging and social networking, have we forgotten how to connect with the children who are right in front of us?
Some of us clearly have and for them, Goulsten offers some practical exercises to help parents not only connect with their children, but do their jobs as purveyors of life lessons. His ideas are good and certainly worth a read. But, as he points out, kids deserve – and need – more than thrice-daily scheduled one-on-one time with their parents.
And when we interact with our children, we need to be fully present, in body and mind.
Maybe I read too much into that one incident with my friend, but I think about it often. It made me take a closer look at my own computer habits. Now, when my own child comes home from school, I log off, shut down and step away. At least for as long as it takes us to reconnect with each other and for her to move on to solitary pursuits. Because I work from home, this isn't always easy. But it's always my goal.
Do you find your online life interferes with your ability to be "in the moment" with your kids?

Soil Ecosystems
Weeds, insects, vertebrates, fungi, bacteria - no where do all these players come together in a more complex way than in the soil. The soil ecosystem has similar dynamics as the above-ground ecosystem with which we are more familiar - but in miniature! From an IPM standpoint, good soil health is critical to prevention of pest problems, especially related to infection of plants from plant pathogens. If plant roots are not functioning properly due to pest damage or poor soil quality, the plant cannot take up water and nutrients well. Sick plants are more susceptible to above-ground pests. There is a correlation between soil life and soil health. Understanding and promoting certain soil life and use of composting are two good ways to increase soil health and thus prevent pest problems from occurring.
