If you haven't made the switch to HTTPS, your users will not be able to access their Yahoo Contacts / Profile data via your service.
Yes, I am using HTTPS.
I am following the documentation in https://developer.yahoo.com/oauth/guide/oauth-make-request.html.
And able to get the access token and yahoo guid, but not the contacts.

If you don't know anything about Kowloon Walled City (九龍城寨) then have a read of my earlier posts where I looked at what it was (a lawless area of Hong Kong) and what it is today 20 years later (now redeveloped as a park). It's a fascinating story which was confined to the pages of history until recently when a games company in Japan decided it would make the perfect backdrop to a new arcade they were building in Kawasaki (川崎市 – located between Tokyo and Yokohama).

Kowloon Walled City: 20 Years Later

Lok Fu Part 2 – Nga Chin Wai Walled Village
In the second part of our photo walk around the area surrounding Lok Fu MTR station in Kowloon, we pay a visit to the little known walled village of Nga Chin Wai (衙前圍村) – the last of its kind in Hong Kong. Although once in near to the harbour, the village has long since become land locked after the construction of the former Kai Tak airport. Read more
Lok Fu Part 1 – Kowloon Walled City
If it were not for some intriguing local history, the area around Lok Fu (樂富) MTR station would be a pretty unremarkable as for the most part it's made up of generic public housing estates. Part of the district was home to the infamous Kowloon Walled City (九龍城寨), which is today Kowloon Walled City Park. The former Kai Tak International Airport was also located in the district and the area is still in a state of transition. Read more

Living in Hong Kong you quickly discover there's a large divide, both physical and social, between Hong Kong island and the Kowloon peninsula. While the island has all the trappings and excesses of absolute wealth (largely generated by the financial sector) the story is often very different in much of Kowloon. Read more

How to Shop for Salad Dressing
Douse your greens in the wrong stuff and what was once a healthy lunch becomes a nutritional no-no. Just a quarter cup of ranch dressing, for instance, can add 340 calories and 36 grams of fat. Joan Salge Blake of the American Dietetic Association offers tips on picking a dressing that won't derail your meal:
Aim for less than 100 calories per two-tablespoon serving, and try light versions rather than fat-free ones, which are often spiked with salt and sugar.
Look for dressings with heart-healthy fats such as olive or canola oil. Stick to ones with six to eight grams of fat per serving, and watch out for cheese, which hikes the saturated fat content.
If you're worried about sodium, look for a brand with less than 140 mg per serving, or dilute it: For vinaigrettes, mix a tablespoon of dressing with a tablespoon of balsamic vinegar; for creamy dressings, add a tablespoon of water.
Make your own healthy vinaigrette by whisking three parts olive oil into one part white, balsamic, or red wine vinegar. Add a pinch of no-salt seasoning (try a Cajun, Italian, or Southwest blend).

The plan features a reduction from 14- foot right of ways on each side of the street to 6-foot right of ways. 8-feet less than a previous recommendation by the planning commission which was rejected by the Upland City Council at an earlier meeting The plan recommends a six-foot high decorative masonry wall to be placed at the edge of the rights of ways along Mountain Ave The wall, to be constructed with an angular pattern, could be either brick or some type of slump stone, to be determined by the architectural commission It would have elevation steps to take up the differential in grade between street grade and level wall sections The area between the curb and the wall, according to the planning department's recommendation, would be filled with a textured masonry finish, possibly cobblestone, brick or e cement. The plan also recommends a "relatively dense landscape treatment on the property side of the wall which would vary from three and one half feet to eight and one half feet because of the staggered shape of the wall Trees and shrubs, to act as a screen between Mountain traffic and would be planted and a sprinkler system installed by the developer of the property Homeowners would be required'to maintain the landscaping "The purpose we are trying to achieve with this plan is to provide an adequate screen between the private property and the roadway in a manner that will not lead to any significant continuing maintenance cost to the city and which will require as little additional right of way as the recommendation stated Gym program has a Mot going for it' By DON HAM The Upland Recreation Department's gymnastics program has a lot going for- According to instructor Jesse Staples, the program is one of the best in the area.

wagon train to reach California, and throughout his long career
worked periodically as pathfinder, guide, and trail leader for the mili-
tary, railroad builders, surveyors, gold seekers, and emigrants.
Westering Man is the first biography of Walker. This seems a bit
odd in view of his stature until one learns that five historians pre-
viously made the attempt but none lived to complete a manuscript.
Too, Walker apparently was "a man of unique and . . . principled
reticence" (p. 8). Consequently, contemporary mention of him is
usually brief, and while several newspapermen tried to record his
story, none succeeded. Perhaps the greatest tragedy was the loss by
Walker of his diary of many years in a stream-crossing accident.
While lack of primary material undoubtedly discouraged some from
undertaking the work, the dramatic quality of the life was enough
to interest Bil Gilbert. A journalist by profession, he brought to the
work a great deal of writing and wilderness experience, enabling him
to understand and express Walker's story in a reasoned but evocative
and personal way. As one might expect, Gilbert's methods are some-
times unorthodox, particularly his system for citing sources, and he
occasionally makes a factual error that a historian versed in the period
would not. These are minor flaws, however. Because of his travels and
literary abilities, Gilbert has written a book few could write, and he
does an excellent job of putting Walker's life in the context of broader
movements, especially in showing how the explorer's Scotch-Irish heri-
tage and the experience of his American forebears prepared him to
play the significant role that he did.

Tea partiers rally in W-B
WILKES-BARRE - Supporters of the NEPA Tea Party rallied Monday evening on Public Square, hoping to sway voters toward Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney on the eve of Election Day.
As the sun began to set, dozens lined the sidewalks toting signs that supported Mr. Romney and denounced President Barack Obama while country music, as well as an anti-Obama parody of MC Hammer's "Hammer Time," blasted in the background through a speaker system. The crowd drew supportive honks from passing motorists, along with the occasional heckle.
Back Mountain resident Michael Lacey said he attended the "Fire Obama Rally" to show the president's critics that they aren't alone.
"(In the media,) there seems to be a preference, in my opinion, of really the left agenda," Mr. Lacey said. "A lot of the information getting out there is not what we support, and because of that, we want to be out here to tell the folks that, look, we believe what you believe."
Mountaintop resident Bob Orbin said the rally was an active way to show his political support.
"There's a lot of people that come through here between now and rush hour," said Bob Orbin as he held a sign that read "Keep America Free, Fire Obama." "It's better than just having it sit in someone's yard."

Smith marries lawyerAnna Nicole Smith has married her lawyer, according to reports.
The former Playboy Playmate and her lawyer Howard K. Stern apparently exchanged vows in a private ceremony onboard a catamaran off Nassau in the Bahamas, according to Star magazine.
The alleged nuptials come just two weeks after the mysterious death of her 20-year-old son Daniel and days after the lawyer claimed to be the father of her newborn daughter, Dannie Lynn Hope.
Howard recently told US talk show host Larry King: "She is the one thing that is really keeping her going. And through it all, even with all the pain, Anna Nicole has been a great mom, a very attentive mom."
However, Anna's ex-boyfriend has demanded a DNA test to determine whether he is the biological father of her daughter.
Larry Birkhead's protests come a day after Howard claimed he was Dannie Lynn's dad.
However, the photojournalist dismissed his statement as "laughable", saying: "I am not surprised he would say this but I am laughing at it. I have asked for a DNA test and I welcome it."
Meanwhile, a pathologist has revealed that Daniel, 20, was killed by a lethal combination of antidepressants and methodone.
Pathologist Cyril Wecht says a combination of methadone, Zoloft and Lexapro, caused a heart problem that resulted in his tragic death.

Why do people watch so much of a movie they intend to see, only to ruin the experience of seeing a movie for the first time without having things spoiled for you?
I'm avoiding anything on this movie because it should be 'one of the good ones'.
Didnt get me hyped at all.

My first thread here; I've spent 8 hours over the past two days trying to get my front derailer right! I would take it into my LBS, but I'm going touring (2000 miles inc. mountains) on this bike so I should really learn how to fix it.
Firstly, there's a reasonable amount of rattling in the system when the system is set up roughly right and the 3rd gear (at the front) is being used. Here's a video: video on flickr. If that is the problem then please let me know although I'm not convinced it is because even holding it still I cant get them to work.
A bit of basic info:
- I define working as 1:1-3, 2:1-8, and 3:6-8 working without grinding the derailer well after I have shifted
- The bike is a decathlon rockrider 5.3
- Its done just over 10,000 miles, and has had all the cogs and the chain replaced, and possibly the derailers about 2 years ago (since then it hasn't done many miles)
- I think it used to work, but I was adjusting this because the derailers were grinding against the chain in some gears
- Chainset: 8 cogs
- Front: 3 cogs
- Derailer: Shimano (says chainstay angle 66-69 on it)
- Bike is upside down, so all pictures are taken as such
Photos of my setup (because i dont know all the names) [Links let you view different sizes]
(dogey cable from adjusting so much, i did this same technique when it worked)
Ok heres what I have done to adjust it:
1. Set the angle so that the (imagined) centreline is parallel to the cogs, and height is such that the outer side of the derailer just clears the outer cog:

1954 Austin-Healey 100-4 BN1 news, pictures, specifications, and information
Sport Roadster
The Austin-Healey marque was the combination of Donald Healey and Austin Motorworks. Designed by Gerry Coker, the 100 was first introduced in 1952 at the Earls Court Motor Show.
Production of the BN-1 began in 1953. The 100 series included the BN-1, BN-2, 100-M and 100-S, and finally the 100-6. They were built through 1956 and were named 100s because that was their top speed. The difference between the BN-1 and the BN-2 was a four-speed/overdrive gearbox in lieu of the three-speed/overdrive on the earlier cars. Both were equipped with a 2.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The list price for the 1954 Austin-Healey was $2,995 and proved so popular that 10,000 BN-1 units were produced while on 4,500 BN-2 units were developed.
This BN-1 was largely intact prior to restoration and features the original convertible top, window plastic, Lucas electronics, tools and books.
Sport Roadster
Leonard Lord, head of the mighty BMC, needed a new car to compete with Triumph and Jaguars for a slice of the American economic pie. When the star of the show aired it carried a nameplate of 'Healey Hundred.' Less than 24 hours later it was called 'Austin-Healey'.
The base car, without accessories cost $2,990 in 1953. It has a 2.5 liter four-cylinder engine using dual carburetors and overdrive transmission, delivering 100 MPH and 30 MPG of gasoline.
Rare factory options include: folding windscreen, 140 MPH speedometer, oil temperature gauge, 3.667 axle ratio for high speed courses of LeMans, and a hardtop.
Sport Roadster
A stock model of this English car, taken directly from a showroom and unmodified, set numerous speed and endurance records at the Bonneville Salt Flats in 1953. This was an achievement for this smaller car of streamlined design.

The Healey 100 was introduced at the 1953 International Motor Sports Show in New York. It was built at Austin's factory and soon became the Austin-Healey BN1. It had an aggressively styled silhouette, tilt-back windshield, and knock-off wire wheels. The Healey 100/4 weighed 2,015 lbs and sold for $2,995. Between 1953 and 1955, the company produced 10,688 examples, with more than half being sent to the United States.
Powering the Healey 100/4 was the 2660cc, four-cylinder engine from the Austin Atlantic. The powerplant produced 90 horsepower and gave the Austin-Healey a top speed of 110 mph, and a zero-to-sixty time of just 10.5 seconds. The BN1 had a three-speed gearbox with overdrive on the top two gears, which was replaced by a four-speed gearbox in 1955's BN2.
In late 1955, the factory introduced its 100 M model, with an additional 20 horsepower. The zero-to-sixty time now took just 9.6 seconds and the top speed rose to 120 mph. Performance was boosted by a higher 8:1 compression ratio, bigger SU carburetors, improved manifolds, and high-lift camshafts. The front springs were stiffer and an anti-roll bar was added. The louvered hood was given leather straps, completing its signature and sporty appearance.
A total of 1,159 examples of the 100 Ms are estimated to have been built, with 640 being factory built, all of them BN2 models. Other 100/4 BN2s were equipped with the dealer-installed Le Mans package which had a 100 horsepower engine, and contained exactly the same equipment as the factory cars except for the factory high-compression pistons.
This 100/4 BN2 Le Mans model was built on August 23rd of 1955. It was shipped from Longbridge, England, to the Hambro Trading Company, which managed US Austin distribution through selected dealerships. The car has had just a few owners, two of those being long-term owners. The original buyer in Minnesota kept the care for 3 decades before selling it to Thomas Bunch in 1987. Mr Bunch retained the car for 25 years, repainting it in its original Carmine red, and changing the interior from black to tan.
This BN2 Le Mans was purchased by BMC Classics in New Smyrna Beach, Florida in 2012, and the company undertook an 18-month, frame-up restoration. During which the BN2 was acquired by the current caretaker. The restoration was completed in January of 214 and has covered less than 300 miles since that time.

The Austin Healey 100 was introduced in October of 1952 at the Earls Court Motor Show. The first Austin Healey 100's were known as 100-4 or BN1. The name 100 came-about by being able to break the 100 mph barrier. The BN also had meaning. The B represented the engine class which meant it had between 2000 and 3000 cc. The N represented the body-style configuration, two-seat and open-top. The 100 was powered by a A90, 2660 cc, four-cylinder engine capable of producing 94 horsepower. The manual three-speed transmission was also borrowed from the A90. However, the first gear was blocked off and was fitted with overdrive on the second and third gears to provide extra power.
The name 'Austin Healey' was formed by a partnership comprising of the designer, Donald Mitchell Healey, and the manufacturer, Austin.
During its total production cycle, 10,688 examples of the BN1 were produced.
In October of 1955, the BN2 was introduced. The BN2 was similar to the BN1 in design but now featured larger drum brakes and a new four-speed transmission with overdrive.
During its production run, 3,924 examples of the BN2 were produced.
The Austin Healey 100S was produced in limited numbers, only 55. Their primary purpose was for competing in racing and rally events as well as for development and marketing purposes. They were entered into races such as Sebring, Mille Miglia, and Le Mans. They were copies of special factory test car that Stirling Moss raced in the 1954 12-hour Sebring race where he placed third. The 100S's were produced at the Healey Warwick factory and most were decorated with the American racing colors, white and blue. Of the 55 that were built, only 10 remain unaccounted for. The 100S, when compared with the 100, featured Dunlop disc brakes on all four wheels, different cylinder head and internal engine modifications, four-speed gearbox without overdrive, and a light-alloy body shell.
The 100S was followed by the 100M. The 100M was a Le Mans variation of the BN2 with an increased horsepower rating of 100-110. It featured bigger carburetors and modified distributor. Valve springs and anti-roll bars were added to the suspension. During its production run, 1100 of the Le Mans BN2's were produced.
Over time, about 100 BN2 were later modified but in order to qualify for the Le Mans configuration the vehicles needed to meet specific standards. These standards included a 1.75 inch H6, SU carburetors, cold air box and air tube, Le Mans regulation strap and a factory style louvered hood.
The four cylinder engine was used from 1952 through 1956, after which a BMC six-cylinder engine was used. The car was dubbed the '100 Six'. Three years and a few engine modifications later, the car was named the '3000' and today is known as the 'Big Healey'. Over the production lifespan of the 3000, it could be assembled with multiple options such as a two-seater or 2+2, hard-tops, single or duo-tone paint schemes, overdrive, and more.
In 1962 the body was redesigned with a curved screen and wind up windows. The interior of the vehicle was revamped in 1964 and also received more ground clearance.
The 3000 was produced from 1959 through 1968. The original engine produced 124 horsepower and was capable of about 114 mph. Modifications to the engine throughout the years increased the horsepower to around 148 and the top speed to 121 mph. The size of the car, the power of the engine, and weighing in at around 2400 lbs made this car responsive, competitive and fun to drive.
In all, there were around 73,000 100's and 3000's produced with 58,000 featuring the six-cylinder engine.

Projected Journey--A Scene of Blood--The Friar-- Seville--Beauties of Seville--Orange Trees and Flowers--Murillo--The Guardian Angel-- Dionysius--My Coadjutors--Demand for the Bible.
BY the middle of April I had sold as many Testaments as I thought Madrid would bear: I therefore called in my people, for I was afraid to overstock the market, and to bring the book into contempt by making it too common. I had, indeed, by this time, barely a thousand copies remaining of the edition which I had printed two years previously; and with respect to Bibles, every copy was by this time disposed of, though there was still a great demand for them, which, of course, I was unable to satisfy.
With the remaining copies of the Testament, I now determined to betake myself to Seville, where little had hitherto been effected in the way of circulation: my preparations were soon made. The roads were at this time in a highly dangerous state, on which account I thought to go along with a convoy, which was about to start for Andalusia. Two days, however, before its departure, understanding that the number of people who likewise proposed to avail themselves of it was likely to be very great, and reflecting on the slowness of this way of travelling, and moreover the insults to which civilians were frequently subjected from the soldiers and petty officers, I determined to risk the journey with the mail. This resolution I carried into effect. Antonio, whom I had resolved to take with me, and my two horses, departed with the convoy, whilst in a few days I followed with the mail courier. We travelled all the way without the slightest accident, my usual wonderful good fortune accompanying us. I might well call it wonderful, for I was running into the den of the lion; the whole of La Mancha, with the exception of a few fortified places, being once more in the hands of Palillos and his banditti, who, whenever it pleased them, stopped the courier, burnt the vehicle and letters, murdered the paltry escort, and carried away any chance passenger to the mountains, where an enormous ransom was demanded, the alternative being four shots through the head, as the Spaniards say.
The upper part of Andalusia was becoming rapidly nearly as bad as La Mancha. The last time the mail had passed, it attacked at the defile of La Rumblar by six mounted robbers; it was guarded by an escort of as many soldiers, but the former suddenly galloped from behind a solitary venta, and dashed the soldiers to the ground, who were taken quite by surprise, the hoofs of the robbers' horses making no noise on account of the sandy nature of the ground. The soldiers were instantly disarmed and bound to olive trees, with the exception of two, who escaped amongst the rocks; they were then mocked and tormented by the robbers, or rather fiends, for nearly half an hour, when they were shot; the head of the corporal who commanded being blown to fragments with a blunderbuss. The robbers then burned the coach, which they accomplished by igniting the letters by means of the

Commercial packing forms are transformed using traditional gilding techniques in Gregg's Gilded Gyre Series. A fool's gold is created from materials typically destined for the recycling bin. These sculptures are reminiscent of totemic forms, tribal art, and space-age toys. Suddenly mysterious and consequential, they invite investigation. They serve as a reminder of a Western addiction to shiny new products with which we so casually fill our lives.
In the Bling Collage Series the artist appropriates and collages imagery culled from luxury magazines. The already over-the-top images of conspicuous consumption are transformed into hyped-up "re-advertisements," for imaginary products, aspirational in a way that makes us question our aspirations. The collages are printed digitally and mounted behind shiny acrylic, returning the images to the glossiness of the high-end magazines they came from.
As we race to buy the newest gadget, or the must have luxury item that will change our lives, many people find themselves swamped with stuff. This stuff seems necessary to 21st century life, while threatening to overwhelm it at the same time. This is the line that Gregg walks, indulging in the allure of consumption while ultimately remembering that not all that glitters is gold.

Find out more about holiday activities in the United States
Hilton Head Island is one of those subtropical playgrounds that could have been designed for the kind of relaxing holiday that takes you back to nature without sacrificing any of the comforts of civilisation.
Lying just off the South Carolina coast, it is the USA's largest barrier island between Long Island and the Bahamas, with 42 square miles of unspoilt sea marshes, creeks and lagoons, thick forests of tall pines, palmettos and live oaks, and 12 miles of surf-kissed, sandy Atlantic beaches.
Luxurious though it undoubtedly is, the island's name has nothing to do with any hotel chain. It is named after a British sea captain, William Hilton, who landed on its easternmost headland in 1663 and rather daringly named it after himself – noting, while there, the "sweet water" and "clear sweet air", proving that some things at least haven't changed since.
Today's visitors have cause to thank Capt Hilton, not just for his discovery but for its timing. Last year saw the 350th anniversary of his visit and the celebrations seem to have spurred something of a renaissance in the island's hotels and resorts, with more than $200m invested in renovations, updates and extensions.
Most of the island's accommodation is contained within exclusive gated communities, often based on former plantations and tucked away in tranquil woods with access to one private beach or more. The oldest and grandest is Sea Pines Resort, often regarded as the blueprint for all America's luxury resorts and occupying the whole southern "toe" of the island.
It has so many beaches, restaurants, shops, and sporting and pampering facilities that you could laze away a whole holiday there.
Sea Pines includes an entire port, the sumptuous little marina community of Harbour Town with the dapper, candy-striped lighthouse that is the island's most photographed feature. The luxuriously intimate, 60-room Inn at Harbour Town was one of the beneficiaries of last year's sprucing spree, to the tune of several million dollars.
Enjoy glorious sunsets on a beachside stroll
Not to be outdone, Sonesta Resort in the former Shipyard Plantation spent a cool $30m on a complete renovation and now features a spectacular swimming pool complex, spa and romantic dining opportunities (all pools, palms and soft pastel lighting).
Add the Westin Hilton Head Island Resort & Spa's coastal chic resort makeover, the newly minted Omni Hilton Head Oceanfront Resort's comprehensive revamp, the hip, recently renovated oceanfront hotel, The Beach House, and one of the USA's most lavish Five-Diamond resorts, The Inn at Palmetto Bluff, and you have a plethora of perfect seaside accommodation to rest your body, mind and spirit.
Or stimulate them, because Hilton Head is something of a sportsman's paradise. If Capt Hilton hadn't got there first it might have been christened Golf Island, since the pursuit of the little white ball is not so much a pastime as a passion.
Restaurants serve seafood, southern cooking and farm-to-table fare The island has more than 20 championship-class courses, sculpted by such design legends as Jack Nicklaus, Pete Dye and Robert Trent Jones Sr, and dotted with unspoiled sea marshes, creeks, lagoons and woods. Several have golf schools to help you play them better and offer all-in golf packages including top-notch accommodation.
The most celebrated course, Harbour Town Golf Links at Sea Pines, hosts the PGA Tour's RBC Heritage event every April. This year's winner was Matt Kuchar, who joins Arnold Palmer, Nick Faldo, Bernhard Langer and Tom Watson on the leader board of fame.
While we're dropping names, how about Stan Smith, Andre Agassi, Billy Jean King and Martina Navratilova? They've all played tennis at Hilton Head, which boasts several tennis schools and more than 350 courts offering a choice of hard, clay and grass surfaces (with some covered ones for the odd rainy day). Ivan Lendl has a junior tennis academy here and the Van der Meer Tennis Center has a world-class reputation.
Cycling is also in the island's DNA. In a nation notorious for its addiction to the automobile, Hilton Head has always been a bit of a green beacon. (Actually beacon is hardly the right word, since bright outdoor lighting is banned to reduce light pollution, making the island a prime spot for star gazers).
There are almost 120 miles of cycle paths, most of them paved, as well as many cyclist-friendly roads, and most resorts will hire you a bike at reasonable rates. Hills are rare, and biking is even more attractive because many of the island's quaintest corners are inaccessible by car – such as the salt marshes and boardwalks of Fish Haul Creek, or the crabbing pier at Old House Creek where armies of fiddler crabs and schools of shrimp tease the patient fishermen.
Tuck in to locally-sourced seafood
Most bike paths are shared with walkers, so you can choose to pedal or promenade.
You can even cycle on Hilton Head's 12 miles of crisp, sandy beaches. As well as bathing and surfing, there's a wealth of water sports opportunities. If you're feeling brave you can sample para-sailing, water skiing, jet-skiing and windsurfing. For a gentler excursion try hiring a kayak and paddling some of the creeks, marshes and inlets along Calibogue Sound which separates Hilton Head from the mainland – or better still, go on a kayak tour led by a local naturalist.
Fishermen can pursue red drum, Spanish mackerel, tarpon and whiting. Or for a taste of luxury, why not take a sailing cruise or even charter a yacht – especially in the evening when painted sunsets separate glorious day from mysterious night?
On or near the water is the best place to experience Hilton Head's abundant wildlife. Pinckney Island National Wildlife Refuge is home to bald eagles, ospreys and vast flocks of waders, while sandbars and shell banks are home to American oystercatchers, black skimmers, terns and sandpipers.
Keep your eyes peeled for island wildlife, including blue herons
Alligators still lurk in the creeks, and rare loggerhead turtles nest along the beaches, although you'll be very lucky to see one. Dolphins are much easier to spot on one of the numerous dolphin-watching excursions, and the island is famed for the unusual spectacle of "strand feeding", where dolphins trap schools of fish by corralling them up onto the mud banks.
Your own gustatory encounters with seafood may be less energetic but just as rewarding. The island's local and sustainable culinary scene features a wide variety of cultures and tastes, with more than 250 restaurants serving seafood, southern cooking, international cuisine and creative farm-to-table fare; you can dine at a casual seafood house one night and a four-star restaurant the next.
Local seafood favourites include shrimp, sweet blue crab, briny oysters and "Lowcountry" specialities such as she-crab soup and Lowcountry boil, a South Carolina blend of shrimp, hot sausage, potatoes and corn-on-the-cob.
If you know where to look, the nightlife is surprisingly lively for such a peaceful island, which also has its own symphony orchestra and the renowned Arts Center of Coastal Carolina, which features Broadway-calibre performances from serious drama to toe-tapping musicals.
No account of Hilton Head Island culture would be complete without mention of the Gullah people, the former slaves who created the wealth and shaped the landscapes of the Southern states. When Union forces captured the island during the Civil War it became a haven for escaped slaves, who in 1862 founded Mitchelville, the first government-sanctioned freedmen's colony in the United States.
From music to basket-weaving the distinctive Gullah culture still permeates the island and visitors can take a guided Gullah Heritage Trail Tour through the 10 Gullah villages, including Mitchelville itself, now a living museum, providing a fascinating cultural experience.

Questions, decisions remain for Dolphins after round of cuts
Quarterback Brady Quinn says he has been released by the Miami Dolphins. Quinn announced the move Tuesday afternoon on Twitter, about an hour before the Dolphins had to meet an NFL deadline and officially pare their roster down to 75 players. They started the day with 88 spots on the roster.
With their roster now down to 75 players after Tuesday's league-mandated cuts, the Miami Dolphins must prepare for their final preseason game against the St. Louis Rams at Sun Life Stadium on Thursday with an eye toward evaluating several key reserves who are on the bubble and fighting for a final roster spot.
Though the loss of defensive end Dion Jordan and safety Reshad Jones for four regular season games each for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances will certainly sting, the Dolphins will be able to use those two spots on the roster on other players for the time being. The continued rehab for players on the mend such as center Mike Pouncey, running back Knowshon Moreno and kicker Caleb Sturgis could also affect available roster spots.
Regardless, the team will still have to make some tough cuts to trim the roster to 53 by Saturday's 4 p.m. deadline. So what's next for a team desperate to make a leap in the standings this year and how did they fare with Tuesday's first round of cuts? Let's dig in.
Armon Binns.
The fact that the Dolphins already gave the quick hook to talented wide receiver Armon Binns on Tuesday is a testament to how stacked they are at his position. The team could carry anywhere between four to six receivers this year with starters Mike Wallace, Brian Hartline and Brandon Gibson taking up the most touches along with Rishard Matthews and the dynamic rookie Jarvis Landry.
Even with so much depth, the team could still not carve out a spot for Binns and likely did him a favor by releasing him quickly and giving him a better chance to find with another team.
Daniel Thomas.
Running back Daniel Thomas survived this first cut but may not stick around for much longer. Thomas has upside and he will get his shot Thursday in their final preseason game to impress the coaching staff, but with Knowshon Moreno's quick return to health he may soon prove to be expendable.
The Dolphins running game has had a poor showing in the preseason but improved tremendously in their home win over the Dallas Cowboys. Thomas could still make a strong case for himself now that the Dolphins have placed Mike Gillislee on the injured reserve list. Undrafted rookie Orleans Darkwa had his moments late in the Cowboys game but is considered a longshot to make the final roster and the Dolphins must also decide one way or another if Damien Williams has a future with this team.
Caleb Sturgis.
Sturgis has had a rough preseason with the kicker battling a groin injury that has prevented him from playing in any of their exhibition games. He came up limping during pre-game warmups before the Tampa Bay Buccaneers game and has forced the team to try out three different kickers in his place.
The good news for the Dolphins is that he was finally back on the field for Tuesday's practice for some light kicking activities. He was noncommittal about his participation for Thursday's game and refused to answer any questions about his injury, but a positive step forward for Sturgis means one less roster spot the Dolphins need to expend on another kicker for insurance. The last thing the team wants is another situation where they run out of healthy kickers like they did against the Cowboys, when they were forced to run two-point conversion plays late in the game after John Potter also got injured.
Mike Pouncey.
What to do with center Mike Pouncey? The starter has openly spoken with media earlier in camp that he is "praying" he's not sent to the PUP list to start the season, which would mean he'd be out for six weeks. For a position of great need given their struggles with snapping the ball, the Dolphins can ill-afford to take this decision lightly and while the temptation may be to keep him on the active roster to be able to plug him in directly once he's healthy, the reality is that his roster spot could be used for the time being on a player who can help them immediately.
Pouncey continues to mostly work out separately than the rest of the team during practice while he rehabs from offseason hip surgery. The center has been unable to participate in any practices or preseason games since he was placed on the PUP list to start training camp. Reserve Samson Satele has filled in well after being brought in late to camp and he has been a steady force in the middle in addition to being a solid snapper.
Another strong performance by Satele against the St. Louis Rams could make their decision easier, but then again Pouncey still remains a significant upgrade over any other options the Dolphins presently have on their roster.

Choctaw High School graduate returns as principal
CHOCTAW — In 1990, David Reid was a pimple-faced teen who strutted through the halls of Choctaw High School wearing jeans and sneakers, focused primarily on getting his diploma and getting out of school.
This week, a youthful 40-year-old Reid returned to his high school and walked confidently down those same hallways. This time he wore slacks and a tie and a pair of freshly polished black dress shoes.
The homecoming marked Reid's first day as principal of his alma mater.
As principal of Choctaw's only high school, he joined 80 teachers in welcoming more than 1,400 students back to class when the Choctaw-Nicoma Park School District launched its new school year. The district has nine schools with an enrollment of 5,500 in kindergarten through grade 12.
Reid was chosen last spring to replace retiring principal Donny Black, who had been principal for 11 years.
It was difficult to determine who was more apprehensive on the first day of school — the students or their new principal.
"I was a little nervous this morning," Reid said.
"Seeing all those students gathered in the front areas of the building, I wasn't sure everyone was going to make it to their classrooms."
The day went pretty smoothly for Reid and his charges.
"No major crises today," he said at the end of day one.
He said it had been like "Old Home Week," reuniting him with former students and fellow teachers he had teamed with during previous assignments in the district. Many of the students offered hugs to Reid as they welcomed him to the high school.
Superintendent Jim McCharen said he is excited about Reid's return to the high school as principal.
Reid has been a teacher and administrator in the district for 18 years. Before his promotion to the high school's top post, he served as principal for nine years at Nicoma Park Middle School.
McCharen said Reid's passion for educating children attracted the attention of administrators a number of years ago and they have followed his teaching career closely.
"Not only is David a veteran teacher in our school system, he's also a product of our school system," McCharen said.
McCharen said Reid's "relationship with the patrons of our district" couldn't be overlooked. He said Reid fits in well with the goals of the school system as it continues to experience growth.
He referred to Reid as a cutting edge administrator and a leader in instructional technology.
"As a teacher, I learned that not one size fits all," Reid said. "What works well for one student may not work for another."
His approach to teaching is "meeting the kids' needs where they are now and helping them expand their horizons."
He said his dream is to shake the hand of every senior when they walk across the stage to receive their diplomas.

Nevada newsman John Ralston called out Florida Congresswoman and DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Shultz for getting her facts wrong during an interview, Tuesday, on his Nevada-based show Ralston Reports.
Shultz appeared on the show to discuss yesterday's two federal appeals court decisions on ObamaCare federal subsidies.
"Just take a state like Nevada, where you have a governor who refused to implement a state exchange and as a result people who get Affordable Care Act health-care plans are getting them on the federal exchange," said Wasserman Schultz reflexively launching into an attack on the Republican governor.
But Ralston stopped her right there.
"Let me just stop you for a second, because you're misinformed about that," Ralston said. "Brian Sandoval put in a state exchange. He did, so whoever briefed you on that is wrong. He did put in a state exchange. He was the first Republican governor to do that.
A flustered Wasserman Schultz responded defensively: "OK. That's not even the point I'm making," adding "I stand corrected. I'm not from Nevada."
Ralston graciously bailed her out: "I know, that's why I say, it's not your fault," he said.
