"SCL to Mendoza by Bus - Great Nature Cinema" Top 5 Page for this destination Provincia de Mendoza by joernme
Provincia de Mendoza Travel Guide: 574 reviews and 1,438 photos
After exactly 3 months in Chile my visa ended, so I had to leave and enter the country once to get another 3 months. The cheapest way to do that is taking the bus to Mendoza, Argentina. My colleagues at BASF told me to do this trip and the male ones added jealously that the Argentinian women would be so much more attractive than the Chilean ones (Hey, chilean ladies, this is not true btw!).
Anyway, I went and was overwhelmed by the scenery that was streaming into my eyes, senses and soul. This was probably the most silent bus trip in my life as I just stared outside the window and tried to close my wide open mouth from time to time (probably that was the reason why the trip was so silent - I must have looked so stupid....)
Being so consumed by the beauty and changes of nature I almost forgot to take some pics and the few I put here can't copy reality well enough at all.
In Mendoza city itself I only stayed 3 nights, but liked the city a lot, too. Seeing so many new buildings, new cars, new whatevers in fastly developing Chile it was a contrast programme to see that Argentina has had all this already many years ago, but now was only maintaining houses as good as possible, maintaining cars so that they still would run but in any case maintaining the pride of a grand nation with a rich history. Let's hope the latest political developments help this nice people to get away from poverty soon.
- Pros:Bus ride SCL-Mendoza, city parks, wine, climate
- In a nutshell:A city worth a visit and a great base for province exploration

More interesting stuff. I thought the tears in your eyes might be from the smog, not the scenery!
Very interesting photos! I agree, that ride through the Andes is totally amazing!!
Tus tips acerca de Mendoza son precisos, y tienes buen "ojo" para analizar las cosas. Pero, aprendiste tan buen espaniol en Chile o lo estudiaste en Alemania? Como sea, tu pagina es muy util. Gracias
Very interesting page of an interesting destination. I like the scenes :)
If you ever find you have just a little too much wine.... I could help you ;0)) Great scenery on from the bus, nice page Joern.

"upper Loire canal port" Roanne by pedroswift
Roanne Travel Guide: 3 reviews and 4 photos
The sea gypsies who choose to live aboard their own boats and travel the French waterways have problems during winter with the weather (too cold in most areas) and with restrictions on available waterways. Typically, maintenance of locks and facilities is done between November and April. Where does one spend the winter? Roanne is one such spot.
Roanne is an industrial city known for the manufacture of explosives. The canal system was vital for transport during earlier times. Today the port of Roanne sees little commercial traffic but every winter score of pleasure boats ranging from 10 metres to 34 metres in overall length moor there:some with the owners on board; some without.
Those staying on board join in the local community activities and form a club. At the start of spring and migration to other parts of France begins, the farewell party is followed by the tooting of fog horns each time a long-time-resident sails away. One can tell who they are quite easily. They have letter boxes rigged close to the edge of the quay to accept their inbound mail which is delivered by the Port Captain.
Probably the major reason for touristic visitors to come to Roanne is to visit the Troisgros Restaurant and Hotel. This three starred Michelin restaurant has long had the reputation of being one of the best in France (if not THE best)! Not just the food : their wine list is world class too.
The owners have a bistro next door. The Central Cafe provides meals at a fraction of the price of TG. Thankfully we mortals can get a small idea of what the movers and shakers enjoy next door.
- Pros:Great Port (of the boating type)
- Cons:nothing to report
- In a nutshell:Foodies mecca - Troisgros

Haunted Mansion! I got stuck in the cemetery area my first time on the ride. This was at DL. It gave me lots of time to look around and take it all in.
Ol Braer Rabbit got into some trouble and we were stuck inside SM for about 20 minutes listening to that song over and over, It was still pretty cool though it was the part where the river boat was.
Last trip we got stuck for about 20 minutes on the dinosaur ride just where Carnotaurus was roaring at us..they had to turn on the house lights...talk about breaking the mood.
My kinda' thinking!Originally Posted by BUTTERHEAD1, post: 301099
Let's see. Not mind being stuck on... hmmm... (I've been stuck on several over the years but none noteworthy enough to remember).
I guess I'd not mind the safari in AK for the same reasons; animals to keep me entertained.
I love IASW so wouldn't mind that either. It would give me a chance to check out all the details.
Buzz Lightyear. I usually max out, but a little extra time would be nice.
Oh, and I'd add to La Cava by adding the World Showcase in general. I wouldn't mind going round and round on Beers around the World. Might be a long day the next day but I'm sure it'd be a blast.

Joshua Lutz "Meadowlands"
Monday, Feb. 25th 2008 to Wednesday, March 26th 2008
Barbara Walters Gallery
Hours: M – F 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. S/S 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Opening Reception: Thursday, March 6th, 5:00 to 6:30p.m.
Sarah Lawrence College is pleased to announce "Meadowlands", an exhibition of photography by Joshua Lutz. On view at the Heimbold Visual Art Center's Barbara Walters Gallery, it is free and open to the Public. For more information please call 914-395- 2355 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.
Joshua Lutz's exhibition is a part of the on-going emerging artists series held during the 2007-2008 academic year. Members of the college's visual arts and visual culture faculty in conjunction with their students select each artist in the series.
Joshua writes the following about his exhibition:
"Under the auspices of finding Jimmy Hoffa's body I started to explore the meadowlands ten years ago. What initially started as a strict documentary project has evolved into something else entirely.
Located in the most populated area of the United States, two miles west of Manhattan is a 32 square mile radius of wetlands known as The Meadowlands. Two thirds of these wetlands have already been filled in and turned into an industrial wasteland commingling with motels and gas stations. This landscape that has been dumped in, paved over, deforested, and mined still remains to be one of the most alluring wetlands capable of continuing to recover. The immense wilderness of the meadowlands could potentially become one the great 21st-century open spaces for the 13 million people of the New York-New Jersey Metropolitan areas. However it is about to see more projected growth in the next year than it has in the previous fifty. The construction of Xanadu, a five million square foot entertainment and retail complex in conjunction with the growth of newly built, poorly planned communities could forever change these wetlands.
On one level this project can stand as a document of this landscape as it is today. It can act as a call to action to preserve a fading landscape and environment of open space. On the other hand this project has evolved into addressing issues unrelated to the specifics of the document.
I am often thinking about creating images that convey a mood or a feeling, how the meadowlands can serve as a metaphor for other issues that I am struggling with. For me it is a place of loneliness and solitude. A place where people pass through on their way to someplace else and occasionally a place where people convene, stopping at motels to spend the night to fill up on cheap gas and cheap sex. These somewhat disparate images tell different stories. I think of them as songs on an album that build upon each other. The songs may be about something specific, but more often than not the specifics become less important than the feelings conveyed."
Joshua Lutz (born 1975) is the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships. His first critically acclaimed solo show at Giterman Gallery in New York launched his career into various collections. In 2008 Lutz's first monograph titled Meadowlands will be published by Powerhouse books and will coincide with a solo exhibition at Clamp Art in New York City.

I bought this Dell laptop just 2 months ago that came with windows Vista and Windows Media Player 11 pre-installed. It was working fine until yesterday morning. But it has stopped working at all suddenly. No matter I try playing anything from the library or by double clicking any media files in Windows Explorer, nothing happens.
Later somebody suggested me to re-install WMP hoping it could fix the problem. But when I go to Add and Remove program, I dint find WMP listed over there. So it cant remove it as well.
Can anyone here please suggest me something to get rid of this issue?

WINOOSKI A Vermont man who was shot in the thigh by a Winooski police officer after a confrontation has pleaded innocent to related charges.
A judge Friday said Isaac Sage, 35, of Winooski should undergo a mental health evaluation to determine his sanity at the time of the incident and whether he is mentally competent for court proceedings.
The Burlington Free Press reported that Sage has been treated and released from the hospital.
Vermont State Police said two officers were responding to a trespassing complaint Thursday afternoon when Sage resisted arrest and punched an officer in the face, causing a concussion and broken nose.
Police said an officer used a stun gun, but when it failed to subdue Sage, one of the officers fired his gun.MORE IN This Just InAnti-refugee activists are hosting a speaker at the Rutland Free Library tonight.

Hudson jeans
Jennifer Aniston in Hudson
Jennifer Aniston was back out on the set of her new film "Wonderlust" in New York City wearing her Hudson jeans again. I love that smile she is wearing! She is also making me want to start wearing my brown belt again…
Recently, Malin Akerman told People magazine of Jennifer, "Guys, get out there! Nab her! She is every guy's dream." "Jennifer is one of my favorite people now. Not only is she an extraordinary actress, she is such a loving, genuine woman and fun. You want her to be your best friend," she added. "She's amazing."
Hilary Swank in Hudson
Hilary Swank was seen wearing the Hudson Five Pocket Skinny in Devonshire. I have yet to try regular Hudson jeans that aren't the triangle pocket, though I do have one pair that are super widelegs and don't have the triangle pocket and they are still VERY flattering to my bum. I wish we had better pictures of Hilary's bum here! Does anyone have the more "regular" jeans like these above? Are they still very flattering to the bum?
I really loved Hilary Swank in "Million Dollar Baby", she showed such passion in that movie! Though I'm probably a bit biased since I love boxing in general. I haven't seen her in "Amelia" yet and I guess I'm not all that interested in airplane stuff, but my sister is a pilot and watched the movie and said it was just "pretty good". Anyone want to share their review of "Amelia"?
Hayden Panettiere in Hudson
Wrapped up warm for the cold weather, Hayden Panettiere was snapped at Porta Portese Flea Market in Rome, Italy a couple of days ago. Hayden was looking through a lot of the jewellery finds and having some lunch. I still can't say I am fond of her cropped hair but it's growing on me.
Hayden was wearing a pair of skinny Hudson jeans which she tucked into black boots for the day. I watched Hayden in Bring It On: All Or Nothing on the weekend as it was on the TV as I've never really watched anything with her in before. I didn't really think much of the movie though.
Jennifer Aniston in Hudson
Jennifer Aniston was spotted on the set of "Wanderlust" in New York City wearing Hudson jeans. I found another older picture of her in these same jeans back in August and you can see the back a little better. Jennifer really looked gorgeous as she strolled around the location wearing a black leather jacket with the Hudson jeans, then later she switched to a mini-skirt.
I don't think I've ever seen Jennifer look bad, every single picture I've ever seen of her, she looks wonderful. She is most certainly one of my favorite "staple" actresses and she has moved very well from TV to the movies. I always love her casual style and love to see what she is wearing next.

Our newest installment of "Attributes" comes from Hila Shachar, a freelance writer and the woman behind Le Projet D'Amour. I always gobble up Hila's work, whether it be poetry, film critiques, or just general observations on art and culture. Hila has a new book coming out in August on the cultural extensions of classic literature, which I am equally eager to read. I'm thrilled that Hila has agreed to share her portrait-on-objects with us, and she describes her cherished mementos with her usual thoughtful, articulate prose. Thank you so much for sharing, Hila!
Sylvia Plath's Collected Poems: Plath was one of the first poets to make a profound impact on me. Although I have numerous copies of her work, this particular book is special. I bought it a few years ago with my then-boyfriend. We were both in a miserable mood, feeling cold and tired. Every time I look at this book I remember crawling into bed in our underwear in his heater-less apartment, thinking of the synchronicity between Plath's words and the rain
outside. I know it's a cliché, but it's a fond cliché.
Artefacts: My grandfather is a historian. A while ago, he gave my brother and I some tokens from an archaeological dig in Israel. Not only do I find it amazing to hold objects in my hand that were held by people so long ago, but I also think they represent my grandfather's ability to make history significant in my life. He was the first person to instill in me a sense of history's relevance in the present.
Graduation ticket: When I got home from my PhD graduation ceremony, I went to place my ticket and program in a box where I keep mementos. The whole night felt extremely surreal to me. But when I found my other graduation ticket for my bachelor of arts degree, I remembered the way I felt in my previous graduation ceremony, when I had just started my PhD. I find it strange to look at my PhD certificate, almost as if it isn't real. But looking at my undergraduate graduation ticket grounds me, because it takes me back to that moment when I was on the brink of it all.
Old family photos: I get really attached to photos and these are some of my favorites of my mother, my father, and my grandfather. But there is one photo here that tellingly lacks a human presence. It's a simple photo of flowers on the table, taken on a Shabbat dinner in my grandfather's kibbutz. Behind the flowers, there's a portrait of his brother, who was killed. This gaping absence in my grandfather's life represents to me his own absence in mine, and how much I miss him.
Train tickets: I love to collect train tickets. Sometimes they are more evocative than postcards, because the perfect postcard images don't really speak of my real experiences when traveling, while a train ticket can take me back to a moment, a feeling, or a thought.
Turkish coffee: I can recall some of the most important moments of my life through coffee. I also suspect that without it, my book would never have gotten finished. My favorite type is Turkish coffee, which in my family, is "cooked" over the stove and drunk in small shots with a heap of sugar. Strong and sweet is how we like it.
Interview tape: This tape is a recording of the first interview I conducted with a Holocaust survivor. I'll never forget it, as it fundamentally changed how I view the world and my place within it. I can still vividly remember the dizzy feeling I had after it was over, standing in the interviewee's kitchen while he offered me some hot chocolate. This ordinary question seemed so moving after I had just seen this man weep like a child.

BEIJING (AP) — A blind Chinese activist whose escape from a rural village set off a diplomatic tussle between Beijing and Washington said Saturday that he was at an airport waiting to leave for the United States.
Chen Guangcheng told The Associated Press that he had left the hospital where he'd been staying and was at Beijing's international airport. He said he expected to leave on a flight late Saturday afternoon for Newark, New Jersey, outside New York City.
"Thousands of thoughts are surging to my mind," Chen said by phone from the airport, sounding hurried but calm.
The departure of Chen and his family to the United States would mark the conclusion of nearly a month of uncertainty for the self-taught legal activist who made a daring escape from abusive house arrest in his village last month.
He sought the protection of U.S. diplomats at the American Embassy in Beijing, triggering a diplomatic standoff days ahead of unrelated high-level talks on global hotspots and economic imbalances led by Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. After days of tense negotiations, Beijing and Washington announced an agreement in which he and his family would be allowed to travel to the United States for him to study.
Chen said his wife and two children were with him at the airport, and that the family had been given their passports. Also with him were hospital and border control staff.
Chen said he hoped that the Chinese government would fulfill promises it made to him, including that the authorities would investigate abuses against him and his family in Shandong province.
Chen thanked his supporters and others in the activist community, saying, "I am requesting a leave of absence, and I hope that they will understand."
Yet he seemed ambivalent about his imminent departure, saying he was "not happy" about leaving and that he had a lot on his mind, including worries about retaliation against his extended family back home.
Chen left the embassy on May 2 and was hospitalized for treatment for injuries sustained during his escape. He had since been awaiting permission to travel to the U.S. to study, where he has an invitation to study law at New York University.
The State Department has said that U.S. visas for Chen, his wife and children are ready for them to travel to America. The Chinese Foreign Ministry said Saturday that it had no comment on Chen's planned departure.
The 40-year-old Chen is emblematic of a new breed of activists that the Communist Party finds threatening. Often from rural and working-class families, these "rights defenders," as they are called, are unlike the students and intellectuals from the elite academies and major cities who led the Tiananmen Square democracy movement.
A self-taught legal activist, Chen gained recognition for crusading for the disabled and fighting against forced abortions in his rural community. But he angered local officials and was convicted in 2006 on what his supporters say were fabricated charges. After serving four years in prison, he then faced an abusive and illegal house arrest.
Nanjing activist blogger He Peirong, who was instrumental in helping Chen escape from house arrest, said she was very happy to hear that Chen and his family were on their way to the United States.
"I hope that this will be a good beginning," said He, who was detained for several days by police for helping Chen. "I hope that they will all be well and safe."
Associated Press writer Charles Hutzler contributed to this report.

A guiding light
Leeds' Etz Chaim Synagogue has developed a new downloadable guide to help non-Jews who attend services as guests to understand its rituals and customs.
The Etz Chaim Guide for Visitors, a downloadable 11-page synopsis, includes the do's and don'ts about what to wear, the best time to arrive and how to muddle your way through a siddur and chumash.
It was developed by Etz Chaim members Claire and Harry Brown before their son's barmitzvah a year ago after they heard stories of people's mobile phones ringing in shul and gifts being presented to the barmitzvah boy. The original guide was sent with a kippah to non-Jewish guests with their invitations. Now, after a year of work and free photographs provided by the Brown's barmitzvah photographer, the guide is available on the shul's new website.
Mrs Brown said the only problem to solve now is how to make a downloadable kippah.

"INDEPENDENCE - HARRY TRUMAN AND THE GARDEN OF EDEN" Independence by mtncorg
Independence Travel Guide: 54 reviews and 134 photos
Harry Truman's spirit is ever-present in Independence. His home is a part of the National Park system; there is a large Presidential Library/Museum; you drive into downtown Independence from Kansas City to the west on Truman Road; a large building commemorating WWI veterans just off the main courthouse square bears his name; a pamphlet describes a special walking trail that takes you past several buildings and sites that either had an impact on Truman's life or that he had on that site. There are plenty of other witnesses in town to their most famous native as well. Not bad for a President who left office in 1952 with a favor ability rating of under 30%. Maybe Midland, Texas will be like this in 50 years from now with GW sites all over town to visit?
As you approach the town of Harry Truman from the west you also notice a gleaming spire and a large copper domed building just west of the main downtown area. These are the headquarters buildings of the community of Christ, the second largest church evolving from the Mormon tradition. While they are the most obvious branch of the Mormon tree here in Independence, they are far from the only one for it was here on a plot of ground - the so-called Temple Lot - between the two large Community of Christ buildings where Joseph Smith revealed to the faithful that Jesus would return here at the time of the Second Coming. The ground was the supposed site for the original Garden of Eden - according again to Smith. The Mormon faith underwent traumatic fractures at the time of Smith's murder in Carthage, Illinois in 1844. Here in Independence, the aftermath of those layers of schismata can be uncovered.

Great depiction of the city as a suburb of KC. There is a lot to do out there, and I have been to the temple some times, and the big one in Utah. They are great and reverent
Interesting historical account of the Mormon church and all its schisms in this area. I have never been there, but my family says we will all move there some day. I'll book an advance reservation at that Olive Branch Inn.
Between the Truman sites and the Mormon sites (and the organ concerts), Independence seems to have a lot to offer in the way of history. Thanks for your detailed descriptions.

Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse (original 1996; edition 1996)
by Kevin Henkes, Kevin Henkes (Illustrator)
Work details
Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse by Kevin Henkes (1996)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I loved this book! Many aspects of this book made me enjoy it! The illustrations made the story that much more interesting and engaging. Through these illustrations, readers are easily able to imagine the setting- a large portion of the story took place in a classroom. Many young readers have had the opportunity to be in a classroom so they are seeing a similar setting to one that they have seen once before. On page 4 there is an illustration of Lilly's teacher, Mr. Slinger, in his classroom. Seeing this classroom can allow readers to put themselves in Lilly's point of view. The overall theme of the story is something that I believe many can relate to. Sometimes we say or do things that we take back shortly after, or we never meant in the first place. On page 19, there is an illustration of Lilly's apology to Mr. Slinger and what she had originally said about him. On page 18, the fact that she put herself in time out, was something that readers can relate to and probably giggle at. The main idea or message that this story is trying to get across is to be careful of what you do/ say. Lilly wasn't thinking when she said those mean things about the teacher that she actually cares deeply about. Be careful what you do or say to avoid any repercussions!
This book was so cute and reminded me of a great way to teach kids lessons about patience, and keeping it together. I enjoyed this book very much and look forward to using it in my classroom.
I think this is a fun book to read, but not to use for teaching a lesson. This is about a girl named Lilly who loves her teacher in the beginning, but is hurt when he doesn't acknowledge her. I liked this book because it focuses on bullying. Children deal with this everyday.
The language is repetitive. She repeats what her teacher says. The writing is engaging because the author used descriptive words like purple purse. The characters are believable they are mice, but all portray real people. The point of view is third person, but it follows around the main character. The plot is organized and consistent. The illustrations are bright colors. The main idea is to teach children about patience and that just because someone ask them to stop doing something doesn't mean they hate them.
This book is about a girl named Lilly who hates her teacher, because he took away her purse during class. She draws a nasty picture of him and puts it in his bag. She soon finds out that her teacher is a nice person and feels horrible about the picture she drew. Lilly and her teacher talk and she then thinks that she wants to be a teacher one day. This book can teach children that teachers are not their enemy, but also can teach future teachers on how to make bad habits on students into good habits.
Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse has been one of my favorite books that I have read so far. The first reason I like this book is because of the characters. Mr. Singer is an amazing teacher to Lilly, he was my favorite character in the story. Another character I liked a lot was Lilly. It was interesting to watch her mature and develop throughout the story. Once she realized she was mean to her teacher and messed up, she acted mature and apologized and listened to him during the rest of the story. Another reason I liked this book was because of the plot. I really liked the problem in the book and the climax. It made the story very interesting when Mr. Singer found the mean note that Lilly wrote about him. The way the story was resolved was perfect because Mr. Singer was not mean, he acted maturely like a teacher should and fixed the problem with Lilly. The main idea of this story is that everyone has bad days and makes mistakes but they will get forgiven. Lilly had a bad day and drew a mean picture of her teacher, but he understood and forgave her when she decided to apologize.

Wikipedia in English
Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0688128971, Hardcover)The irrepressible mouse heroine of Chester's Way and Julius, the Baby of the World returns for another true-to-life and very funny episode. Lilly loves everything about school, especially her teacher, Mr. Slinger--until he takes away her musical purse because she can't stop playing with it in class. Lilly decides to get revenge with a nasty drawing of "Big Fat Mean Mr. Stealing Teacher!" but when she finds the kind note he put in her purse, she's filled with remorse and has to find a way to make things right again. Children will sympathize with Lilly's impulsive mistake and laugh uproariously at the witty and expressive pictures of the very human mice. In a starred review, Publisher's Weekly called this book "sympathetic and wise." (Ages 4 to 8)
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:21:23 -0400)
Lilly loves everything about school, especially her teacher, but when he asks her to wait a while before showing her new purse, she does something for which she is very sorry later.

"La Vita e Bella" Atrani by KingOfFirenze
Atrani Travel Guide: 23 reviews and 47 photos
Atrani is situated right on the water. It is a 5 minute walk to neighboring Amalfi. Atrani is nice and quiet and keeps all the charm that the Amalfi Coast has to offer. We have visited here for 3 years straight and stay at Hostel Scalinatella located right on the water. The brothers, Filippo and Gabrielle and acccomodating. You cannot beat the prices no matter where you go. Atrani is situated right below Ravello, the posh resort town and right next to Amalfi. The bus drops you off right in Atrani which was very convenient though the walk to the Amalfi bus stop is easy and a perfect panoramic walk along the water.
This road leads from the piazza and to the entrance to Scalinatella.
The place offered free breakfast in the morning every day. The cornetto was the best I have ever had in Italy and the cappuccino was perfect. The main piazza is located right outside the doors of Scalinatella and has a barber, 2 bars/cafes and a couple of restaurants. With the close proximity of Ravello and Amalfi. Atrani is the perfect place to stay the night(s) and I'd reccommend Hostel Scalinatella. The place is huge and can accomodate many people. Atrani is not "touristy" like Amalfi which contributes to its charm. It is still a peaceful little town.
Here is a nice picture of the sea from the nice beach.
Scalinatella also has rooms for rent in nearby Amalfi on a lemon farm overlooking the beautiful Amalfi Coast. You cannot beat the view.
You can walk up to Ravello or take the bus. The nice thing is that the steps leading up to Ravello are right in the main piazza. Scalinatella is the only hostel/hotel that I am aware of that is in Atrani and it is perfect for students who want to come to the coast. When I studied abroad in Firenze, I came down here at least three times and have visited twice again for vacation.
- Pros:Charming, Quiet, Non-Touristy. Locals are friendly
- Cons:Where is the Internet Cafe?
- In a nutshell:Perfect Place to Stay on Amalfi Coast

Mychael Anthony
This natural entertainer grew up in St. Peter, MO., just west of St. Louis. "IT" all started
in preschool. Full of energy and wit, his teachers gave him time in the early afternoons
to entertain his classmates in order to minimize his comedic exploits during class time.
Michael did dance routines, mimicking Michael Jackson, and was a natural for leading
roles in school plays. He just loved to be the center of attention so he could entertain
everyone and make them smile.
Michael Anthony continued to act in plays throughout elementary school, high school,
and college. His roles include everything from dramatic historic plays to gut-busting
comedies. At times, he would juggle appearances in two different plays simultaneously.
After graduating high school, he put his entertainment career on hold in order to pursue
a college education from the University of Missouri-St. Louis. The acting bug forced
Michael Anthony to take classes at COCA and The Muny, two of St. Louis's well known
performance venues.
He entered into a profitable entertainment venture when he began performing, writing
lyrics, rapping, and co-managing the group, KRT (Knights of the Round Table).
Michael's natural passion for writing led him to co-write songs used in sports highlights
for both the St. Louis Cardinals and the St. Louis Rams. He and KRT performed songs
live in the studio of News Channel 5's "Sports Plus" in 2006 and 2007. In 2005, Michael
won the Midwest Market Addy Award for writing a commercial for 'Slackers', a music
and video game store in Missouri. After writing two locally respected albums, Michael
returned to his main passion and directed his talents to writing sketches, scripts, and
material that keep the audience laughing and smiling.
Michael Anthony's natural passion for entertaining, mixed with his experiences in
writing and acting, led him to pursue stand up comedy. His timing & observations on
current events quickly made him a favorite at local comedy clubs. Within months of
Michael's initial pursuit of comedy, he was already getting paid to perform and even
asked to do shows with Guy Torry and Paul Mooney.
Michael is now ready for the next chapter in his life as an entertainer. He is passionate
about providing quality entertainment for his audience, and has built upon his prior
experiences in order to know the best way to do so. Michael's experiences are diverse,
and his passions are many. He has always put all of himself into every creative project he
has ever been involved with, and will continue to do so, so long as there are still people
out there that Michael can make laugh and smile.
The open mic sign up is from 5:30pm to 5:40pm and the show starts at 5:45pm. Everyone writes their name on a slip of paper and throws it into a bucket, at 5:45pm the host will grab the bucket, walk on stage, and start the show. Comics are drawn directly from the bucket so anyone has the chance to perform!
If you're selected it's a TIGHT 3 minute set, that means you get blasted off with music right at the 3 minute mark so come prepared.
It's a NO COVER, NO MINIMUM PURCHASE show, so come out and enjoy an evening of randomness!

Single battle:
Tyranitar ability sand stream (evs toward attack and hp)
Stone edge
rock polish
Flygon @fly gem (evs in attack and bulk)
Thunder wave
dragon tail
Thunder punch
Groundon @life orb (evs at attack and speed)
Earth quake
fire fang
Sword dance
This team will go in with tyranitar. Most people will outspeed and inflict a status on a sword danceing tyranitar- so this rock polish set will surprise and cripple most teams. His already high attack will be put to good use in this set by killing most apponents in one or 2 attacks.
I chose tyranitar to go first because of his STAB move stone edge and his sand stream. Stone edge ohko most ice types. Sand stream protects my 2 other pokemon. (Fido, and TerraKill) and knowing Tyranitars weakness- fight, grass, water, and ground. I made the next 2 counter them.
Fido. While being weaker than garchomp he can still be used pretty effectively. For instance, acrobatics plus a fly gem do great damage to fighting types. Thunder wave and dragon tail are goid annoyers and they will pave the path for my terrible TerraKill. I'm thinking about adding uturn but idunno, thunderpunch os pretty handy for watervtypes
Now for Garchomp theres really not much to explain. he goes in and earthquakes/outrages the apponent. I usually dom't have to use him at all cause tyranitar and Fido do the work
Double battle
Reuniclus @light clay
Light screen
Fiery dance
Quiver dance
Bug buzz
Hidriegon @life orb
Nasty plot
Dark pulse
dragon pulse
Leavany @(berry for fire
Sword dance
Leaf blade
secret power (turns to earthquake like move)
Simple little team, set up light screen while volcarona is dancing. Thunder is for water types and psychic for rock types (might switch to energy ball but it has no STAB so Idunmo) vocatona hits dark types and ghosts usuall get 2hkoed eith bug buzz.
Hidriegon is for physical walls and leavany for special walls. They also cover some weaknesses so yuh please give me your opinion ^-^
Be you because that is all you can be ^-^

Buffalo News, 2/10/13
"Poseur is a marvelous spin through 90s New York…It is a truly moving study of a disappeared New York…[Spitz] is a needle-sharp, self-deprecating writer with pop culture coursing through his veins…This is criticism and memory merged, and it's funny, beautiful and wise…It is the music memoir as art."
PopMatters.com, 2/22/13"Think of Spitz's Poseur as the Life of rock memoirs, with less Stones and more typewriters. Spitz is a rare find: the self-aware bad boy, the articulate addict, the earnest punk, the wastoid with an excellent memory…This is an entertaining read for music lovers and '90s fetishists and fans of addiction narratives, sure, but it's also meant for those who enjoy learning everything about a person without expecting anything more. It's a portrait, masterly and self-contained, and you have to be satisfied with the portrait alone."
BackstageAxxess.com, 3/5/13
"[A] fascinating piece of history…It's reflective, funny, thought-provoking and at times sophomoric in its use of dick humor, and it works."
Blurt.com, 3/6/13
"A fun read…[with] amusing behind-the-scenes anecdotes."
Village Voice, 3/12
"Part Gen-X love letter, part snapshot of the final glory days and collapse of the record industry and old media…in a tone that falls somewhere between Philip Roth and Lena Dunham."
You're Beautiful New York
"It's a riveting, bleak tale, exactly like the late nineties."
Time Out New York, 5/13/13
"Spitz captures the Lower East Side in its last days of authentic grittiness in this memoir."

OK so bought the bike Saturday - with the help of you! - and went for my first ride Sunday - 22 miles on a flat bike trail - Silver Comet in about 1.5 hours. Had a blast and only fell once at the beginning - learning to use the shoes and clip in and out... but it was really a great ride and a great day.
So today was ride 2. I joined a group ride and set out to meet the gang at a Mall. Well I only met one person, but he happens to have led many rides for the Southern Bike league so he knows a ton about biking. So we rode on bike paths and busy streets (At some points) and headed out for about 10 miles and back. The turning point was at Stone Mountain. It was quite an experience to actually ride to the mountain that I have previously driven to and walked up. I felt so accomplished and powerful. Like yes - I CAN do this, I will lose the weight - and meet a ton of people with my newfound hobby.
He was a fabulous leader and we had a great time. He said he was really impressed in how well I did~! (I think I am able to keep up since I have been exercising on the elliptical for the past 6 weeks for 40 minutes a shot).
1:48:37 seconds..19.6 miles with about a 10 minute stop.... and a few hills.
I am loving this biking thing!

Skip to comments.Can a Baby be Baptized Against the Parents' Wishes?
Posted on 02/14/2013 12:14:09 PM PST by Weiss White
Q: Some Jewish people in my city complained to the local Catholic hospital, saying they were afraid to bring their sick children to the emergency room, because the hospital staff might baptize them. The hospital staff publicly agreed never to do this.
I had always assumed that you cant baptize a baby without at least one parents consent, so I thought the hospital would simply say, Dont worry, were not allowed to do that anyway! But the wording of the hospital administrators response seemed to suggest that they really could baptize a sick baby if they wanted to. Can a baby be baptized Catholic, even if the parents arent Catholic and dont want the baptism? Greg
(Excerpt) Read more at canonlawmadeeasy.com ...
In the olden days (of my youth), a Catholic hospital might have the priest baptize a dying baby. I doubt that would happen today.
If you are not a believer what does it matter? It is just a bath in your mind set. As long as it physically nor mentally invasive (I doubt babies could be affected emotionally) then who cares. I'd be more concerned about the quality/level of care under obamacare guidelines.
Legally? I don't know.
I do know that when the time came for my husband's dad to allow him to be baptized into the Catholic church he refused. So my mother-in-law and her mother "baptized" him in the kitchen sink.
He chose to be baptized and joined the Baptist church in his late teens.
If the parents were baptized against their wishes, would that make them Catholics? Or just wet Jews?
The custom of baptism didn't just spring up when Jesus came along. The ceremonial use of water is a very ancient Jewish custom.
yep and only if the babys daddy is a certifiable meathead
So Marco Rubio baptized hks self while giving his speech?
Best laugh I've had all day! lol!
And if the baby's mama goes on to gain 300 pounds and shills for programs that supposedly feed hungry kids.
Charlie tried to do that on "Lost"... with a completely unrelated person's baby no less.
I'm pretty sure the Mormons reading the obituaries will get me proxy-baptized after I'm dead.
Doesn't bother me. I already know where I'm going, and no two people splashing around in a basin will affect that.
Not that I'd want it to :)
Sure, but my point is that baptism into Christ is a voluntary act, predicated upon belief in Christ.
Neither Jews' children nor Catholics' children nor atheists' children can be baptized into Christ before they're of an age to believe in Him.
This seems like agitprop to make Catholics look bad and create animosity.
I think an important issue also is what if someone puts a curse or magic spell on your baby at a doctors office. Or in the supermarket. Or puts magic dust on them.
Well, in the past it sometimes mattered a lot.
1) Baptism by a priest doesn't make a baby "Catholic" anymore than circumsizing a kid makes him a Jew
In fact my Catholic kids were baptized by a Methodist minister, A Christian baptism is a Christian baptism
2) If you don't believe in the ritual of sprinkling water on a child, why fear it? They think Jahweh will be displeased? If the kid is that sick, is that their main worry so to not take them to the hospital?
My guess is that in the days of high infant mortality, the Church baptized babies to ensure that they get to Heaven.

You and I might believe it's restricted, but Catholics and many Protestants don't agree ~
They used to baptize them then take the child! Sort of how the Muslims in Egypt claim a young woman converted so now they can take her from her family.
Who is "they" and where would they take them? A source for this claim would be nice, too.
Take it for what it is; an act of love. I would not object to a prayer for the dying being said by a Rabbi (or any faithful Jew) over myself or any relative.
"Neither Jews children nor Catholics children nor atheists children can be baptized into Christ before theyre of an age to believe in Him."
Of course they can, at least in the Catholic faith... However the Catholic Church also has Confirmation once the child is of the age of reason.
Interesting legal question. Probably no statutes on the point since it is, well, weird. Can they? Probably. Should they? Absolutely not. It should be the parents call.
An adult baptized by the Catholic Church will often be given a Conditional Baptism. Basically acknowledging that the subject may have been baptized, but if he or she wasn't... They are now.
It really doens't matter if you baptize a baby WITH or WITHOUT parental consent.
Nothing spiritual happens. You just end up with a wet baby.
(Catholics are now free to flame away)
Sorry folks, the universe was not created by an infinitely evil boogie man.
Clearly, it matters to these parents. Don't you think it should be their call?
It is just a bath in your mind set. As long as it physically nor mentally invasive (I doubt babies could be affected emotionally) then who cares.
So you wouldn't object to hospital staff performing a non-invasive Muslim purification ceremony for your infant?
The better question might be — why in the world would anyone baptize a child without the parents' consent?
See the link in post #17 of this thread. Short version: as late as the 19th century, the governments of some Italian states would confiscate Jewish children from their parents if someone (typically a servant) claimed to have baptized the child.
It is their call. Go to another facility.
Yes I would, see second sentence above.
If the baby was in danger of dying and you wanted to save the soul.
Are you, like, in Junior High?
Baptism is a conscious choice. You cannot be baptized against your will, anymore than I can force you to believe in unicorn's, fairies, or leprechaun's. You can consecrate a baby, or a young child, to be an instrument of God, but unless they have an understanding, it just isn't a baptism.
Excuse me, but with all due respect for whatever religion one might be, here is the kicker. We ALL SAY we believe that G-d is omnipotent, then refuse to acknowledge that claim while waging religious warfare amongst factions. G-d is justice. The first, last, and final justice. NOTHING man does will change that. Nothing.
I wouldn't, assuming they didn't disrupt treatment somehow and that they didn't charge me for the service.
Yes, a venerable Jewish practice to indicate the intent to be restored ritually clean (to be able to enter the Temple, etc) . But it had nothing to do with any remission of sin (ritual impurity is and was never the same thing as sin, indeed it often resulted from perfectly natural processes like menstruation or involuntary emissions, or from complying with God's commands like His first one about being fruitful and multiplying— no sin involved and thus no remission of sin needed). And of course Jews don't require baptism to become People of God because they're born with that status. The Christian baptism therefore resounds in Jewish religious practice but as a Christian sacrament it serves quite different purpses. (Interestingly, there are a couple of verses in the Dead Sea scrolls indicating that that sectarian Jewish community did see baptism as inclusive of sin recissionary import. This is one of several DSS sect distinctives of special interest, but of course they had their dissimilarities also). At any event, Christian baptism came from rge Church's Jewish roots but has a substantially different theological significance. If we just look at the visible aspect of the water ritual, yes quite the same. But much different meanings so it is best not to confuse the two.
"If you are not a believer what does it matter?"
—Clearly, it matters to these parents. Don't you think it should be their call?—
You two are really talking about different things.
As to "Don't you think it should be their call?" — obviously, yes. But I don't know why it would be of any concern unless one thought the act imparted some sort of mystical something on to the child.
Same for the "non-invasive Muslim purification ceremony" (what ever that is). If it is non-invasive how can it affect anything?
That parents may not want these done for whatever reason — that's a different issue than whether or not it causes harm or any sort of tangible change.
The involuntary baptism and then effective kidnapping of children (because the new "christian" child could not be raised by evilll Jooooos) was a standard practice of Roman Catholics for years.
Indeed, it was an organized effort for some centuries.
The last case was in 1858 in Italy, where a maid who hated the Jewish family she worked for claimed to have baptised their son Edgardo Mortara, and the Pope himself participated in the kidnapping and brainwashing of the child against his parents.
So, it's not exactly a far-fetched fear.
Suppose that option is not available, say the nearest maternity hospital is 100 miles away.
What do you do next, sit back and let the Imam perform the ceremony?
For years, the Roman Catholics used forced baptism as a method of kidnapping children.
That's why it matters.
"For years, the Roman Catholics used forced baptism as a method of kidnapping children.
Thats why it matters."
Actually, that's why its agit-prop in 2013.
No one is arguing that it causes harm, so I'm not sure how your comment is relevant. Parental prerogative is the issue being discussed.
If it's not your baby, it's none of your business.
Unless you think it's completely acceptable for Muslims, Scientologists, Rastafarians, Satanists, etc to do the same to/for your children.
After all, they are all convinced they're doing good, too.
Just because you have no memory or concern of recent history, doesn't mean the rest of us should not.
It tends to repeat itself.
When I was leaving the hospital with each baby, I was given a little packet that included a card that indicated a baptism had taken place and a St. Christopher's medal for each baby.
At first, I was upset as I am not a Catholic nor was I asked for permission for the baptism and told them so.
Later, I determined that as I am not Catholic, nor do I believe I infant baptism (what can a new born "repent" of), the baptism meant absolutely nothing here or in Heaven.
Do you think they are doing this (if they actually are) so that they can then take the babies later?
I'd be against that too.
You're probably on to something.

Beach Tours and Harbour Cruises in Sydney
Hop on a ferry. Sail a boat. Jump in a helicopter. Or let Sydney's experienced tour operators show you the way. With an adventurous spirit, it's easy to uncover the best-kept secrets of Sydney's beautiful waterways and beaches.
Jet speed boats, harbour cruises, twilight sails, fishing charters and whale watching tours (in season) are all great ways to experience Sydney Harbour, but don't forget the ferry. Manly's the most famous destination from Circular Quay, but you can also catch ferries to Watson's Bay, Balmain, Woolwich, Mosman, Taronga Zoo and even Parramatta. Buy a day pass and hop aboard.
Diving enthusiasts can discover the best dive sites and marine life around the harbour with a guided tour. Or, wax up a board and hop on a wave; you'll find surfing lessons in the Northern Beaches, Bondi and Cronulla. A kayaking tour is also a great way to get to know Sydney's lesser-known waterways.
For an aerial perspective, book a helicopter flight or seaplane tour, some of which combine flights and a romantic gourmet lunch. And don't forget the fun you can have from the shore, either. On an eco-tour, you'll learn about lagoons, headlands, rock platforms and flora and fauna. Or, join an Aboriginal fishing tour and learn how to catch your dinner and cook it!
There are also heaps of great day trip tours on offer to the Northern Beaches, the Central Coast and iconic Bondi Beach. And if you've got time, don't miss a day trip to the beautiful beaches of Bundeena and the Royal National Park, around an hour out of Sydney.

This review is from: OKIDATA B4600 (120V) Personal Up to 27 ppm Mono LED Printer (62427201)
Pros: Prints fairly quick when it works.
Cons: Unreliable -- have already had one break, it made a grinding noise that was atrociously loud after less than 6 months of use.
Other Thoughts: I wouldn't have purchased this printer if I wasn't forced to, it was required per a contract.

This review is from: OKIDATA B4600 (120V) Personal Up to 27 ppm Mono LED Printer (62427201)
Pros: Reliable. Excellent English speaking friendly knowledgeable tech support from OKI. Great manufacturer warranty. Built in printserver (-n models) work great with any network. Linux friendly and still shows up on Windows networks. In 70K pages it will save over $1000 in consumables vs. hpopular brands. dual print trays are a savior when one printer is shared for many purposes/people. LED instead of laser means less maintenance less moving parts less hassle. I have never seen an okidata with a broken roller or broken feed tray. These printers are expensive for a reason, they are the best. You will not be let down, these printers are the cream of the crop, and they come in black for the trendy new office. I put one into service in a salvage yard under high scrutiny and ridiculous expectations and it is performing like a champ.
Cons: Standard paper tray is small compared to the capability of the printer. It is also so quiet that you don't know when it's done with a document from the next room.
Other Thoughts: BUY IT! you will be happy later and have several more I promise...

Very, very good recipie and extremely tasty! However, I had to cook it at 375 F for at least 1 1/2 hours though to get it cooked through. It still was juicy and tender. I loosely wrapped it in foil to bake. Yum!!! I fixed it for my parents and have printed the recipie out to keep. I can't wait to try it on my friends.
My family and I enjoy richly seasoned foods. The spices in this recipe appealed to us.

This exactly the same problem we had last season, people were wanting Alvaro Arbeloa to get forward when he did and was caught out of position people started complaining, we then signed Glen Johnson an attacking RB, to have an attacking RB you the need a quality natural right winger or right midfielder that knows exactly when to and when not too track back hence this is why the reason Johnson is caught out of position as much as he is, until we get natural balance on either flank then this will continue to happen plain and simple.
Look at Chelsea:
RB Ivanovic RW Cole
LB Cole LW Malouda
Look at Man Utd:
RB Neville RW Valencia
LB Evra LW Nani
Look at Aston Villa:
RB Cuellar RW Milner
LB Warnock LW Young
Anybody see what I'm getting at, natural balance with natural wingers, we just don't have that unfortunately.
Yes he is a significant player...he is our only right back for god sake!
He really can't be that bad otherwise he wouldn't be Englands number one right back.
Also, if he really is that bad as a right back he is going to be even worse on the left!
Anyway, I will say again, we need to score the goals, we are losing 1-0, we need Johnsons ability going forward. We need to think of how we are going to score and make them worry about us rather than us worrying about them.
Daniel, you say johnson is a significant player. He is a liability. His first job is to defend, and he can't do it. I'll give you he is a help going forward but...
A Yahoo! User Apr 28, 2010 05:28 Flag
I've given up :-)
But Johnson is a significant player to choose to put there as you are taking away our only right back so then that's another position that needs filling. Then you put our best defensive midfielder there which that needs filling, and filling by someone not as good in that role. This is not the game for experimenting and testing these sorts of things.
As for Carra and Agger dealing with him coming down the line...that's what the fullbacks are for, I find it strange you say that. Also, if they are coming out to deal with him coming down the line who is there to deal with Forlan and Aguero...we all seen what Forlan can do when given half a chance plus the superb Aguero on top.
As adi said earlier on, if Reyes doesn't get any joy down one side he'll just swap with Simao and Johnson would have to deal with someone going the other way round him so defeats your main point of putting him there.
IMO this idea definetly poses more problems than it solves.
One final note, as I've said a few times already you seem more concerned about what they are going to do to us rather than thinking about how we can make them worry about us. We need to think about attacking and scoring goals...we are losing after all.
Daniel, I wanted a right footed player to stop reyes cutting inside. I chose johnson, it could of been masch or lucas. I wasn't bothered about reyes going down the line, carra and agger could of dealt with that. Break it down at the source, so that we can attack.
So your solution to the problem is to move Johnson to left back where he is going to look even more defensively frail and we would also lose his attacking qualities as well.
As I said if we didn't have a left sided defender to play there then yes playing him there would very much be a viable option but when we have Agger available I think it is just moving players around for the sake of it.
I admit Agger has looked more assured than Insua.
Another way of looking at it is, we added johnson and it hasn't worked, it has unsettled the defence.
Just to add to that, Agger hasn't been playing left back all season but since he has, we have looked a lot more assured in defence. If he wasn't available along with Insua then your idea could be goer but with Agger available I would much rather have him at left back than any other player in the squad, even Insua.

Has anyone delivered at Lakeview Hosp. in Stillwater? Just curious how it went. Did you use a Doula? CNM?
Lakeview Hospital Stillwater
Comments (7)
I had my 3 LO at lakeview in 2003 (a high risk preg delivered 2 weeks early), 2006 (my delivery turned into an emergency, but delivered naturally) and 2010 (I had the birth thing down by the time this one came, no big events). They were delivered by an OB.
I felt rushed all 3 deliveries.
Was sent home mid labor for my first, made it home just in time for my water to break. Just to turn around and go back.
My second COMPLETE DISASTER!!! They were admittedly short staffed. I had one poor nurse who ran between a couple laboring mothers her entire shift. When I opted for an epidural (mistake) she had asked a globe university student to hook up my IV, the nurse then left the room. The student just started nursing school and had no idea on what to do. Me being a vet tech was familiar with setting up the IVs so, there is me, between contractions, setting up the IV line. I was left unattended with my epidural and just before the birth my blood pressure dropped too low. The nurse luckily still in the room as she was on her way out. So she was there for the event. SCARIEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE. Later I come to find out...I moved myself to a side position. Not good for an epidural, as the anesthetic only moves to the down side. When my water broke i could feel the pain and rolled to my back, which caused the change in my bp. Had I had the supervision of a nurse I would have never laid on my side saving me my near death experience. After my son was born and all was well. We were left alone for many hours, other then the nurse poking her head in to see that we were ok. They place my LO on my belly right as soon as he emerged and would'nt come back to give him his first bath or a diaper until many hours later, when I could walk (epidural gone) and we were both in need of a shower, as we were covered in poo from the babe not in a diaper.
My third birth, they had more staff and I think my experience with childbirth made that on the very best.
I don't know what to say, each birth was so different, my most recent being the best. Currently I am in the process of finding another clinic, as the pediatricians at SMG seem to be too busy to have patients.
Everyone's opinions are different, please don't feel my stories represent all of Lakeview hospital.
When is your baby due?
May 2013
We just had a tour there. We really liked it, seemed quiet compared to places like United/Abbott. Just not sure how we feel about that. We want to do a natural pregnancy...no epi/drugs etc. and are finding it hard to find a hospital willing to let us go pain med free. Lakeview seemed like the first place that would let you do whatever you wanted. I was shocked that we've been to Woodwinds, United, Abbott, St. Johns and Lakeview is the first hospital that knows what a TENS device is and how to use it for pain management. But after hearing your story and that they lost either a baby or mother some years ago I'm a bit skeptical. Not sure what to do now. I know that I'd like to be in a hospital setting but not feel force into doing things I don't want. Thankfully I have some time yet:) Thanks for the info.

I've heard mixed things about Lakeview. Have you looked into Hudson? I had a good experience there as a doula and I'll be going there to birth this time.

DS May 2o13 - Successful VBAC
Most people in my family have delivered at Lakeview since almost all of my extended family lives in Stillwater (me and all of my brothers were born there as well). They all have liked it. I have heard nothing but good things about Hudson as well, but have no personal experience with either since we live on the west side of the cities.

For the first time in almost three years there is no drought, or abnormally dry conditions in North Carolina.
Thursday's map released by the U.S. Drought Monitor showed normal conditions for all 100 counties. The last time that happened was January 30th, 2007.
The state experienced its worst drought on record in the summer, fall and winter of 2007.
Since then above average rainfall has helped replenish streams, rivers and reservoirs. This past month has been unusually wet across the state, with many locations experiencing record-setting rainfall amounts.
In a one-month period ending Dec. 9, data from NC State shows it was the wettest for this time of the year for many areas including Kinston, New Bern, Plymouth and Roanoke Rapids.
