New Zealand sailors aiming for Olympics gold
Relevant offers
Other Sports
New Zealand's sailing team have started their campaign for the Rio 2016 Olympics and anything less than gold won't be good enough for the team of young hopefuls.
Olympics gold medallists Jo Aleh and Olivia "Polly" Powrie have another gold firmly in their sights after taking home the top place at the Olympics test event in Rio de Janeiro earlier this month.
The Aucklanders were barely Auckland-based anymore as they spent up to five months a year overseas on sailing pursuits, Aleh said.
The 28-year-old, who was originally from Miruwai but now lived on the North Shore, said juggling family life and sailing was a balancing act.
But when she came home she caught up on study towards her business degree, saw friends and family and delved into home baking so she could feed the team, she said.
Aleh said it had become easier for the pair to fund their campaigns since they brought home the gold medal in the Women's 470, or two-person dinghy, event from the London Olympics.
The pair was backed by High Performance Sport, Yachting New Zealand and they both had personal sponsors.
The pressure and expectations on the duo heading into the next Olympics and the qualifying ISAF Sailing World Championships in Santander, Spain, next month were a blessing and a curse, Aleh said.
Once a team had done well there was proof it had the ability to be the best, but it also put pressure on them to perform, she said.
This mindset was surely well-known to the country's Team New Zealand sailors.
Aleh, who took up sailing after being captivated by New Zealand's stunning 1995 America's Cup performance, suggested a few girls on the premiere team could help them reclaim the Cup.
Women would add "a bit of common sense" to the team, she said.
Powrie, 26, said the duo would go into the Olympics qualifying event next month and into Rio in 2016 as the defending champions.
"I think we have as much chance as anyone [to win gold]."
Powrie said she followed her siblings into sailing as the youngest of three children.
Aucklander Alexandra Maloney, 22, and her teammate Tauranga-native Molly Meech, 21, were on their first race to the Olympics.
The pair took home silver from the Rio event earlier this month, but they hoped to return to the Brazilian city in 2016 to claim the gold.
"We're not there to participate," Maloney said.
But they would have to qualify first.
Olympics silver medallist Peter Burling, 23, said he and teammate Blair Tuke were pipped at the post by the Australian team at the London Olympics but the Kiwi pair had beaten their Aussie rivals in their past four races.
And they could do it again in Rio, Burling said.
"Anything other than gold would be seen as a failure to be honest."
Burling said this month's Olympics testing event was a good opportunity to put the team's mind at rest about what to expect at the games.
There had been a lot of talk about a lack of breeze and debris and sewage in Guanabara Bay where the sailing events would be held during the Olympics.
However, the breeze and debris were better-than-expected, he said.
Burling said there was a chance sailors could fall into the water and they were constantly being splashed but no one in the team got sick from pollution.
Yachting New Zealand high performance director Jez Fanstone said the Rio event was a success for the Kiwi team and now they would be looking to qualify for the Olympics.
Rio was a learning opportunity for the team, Fanstone said.

How to justify the price difference?
Jan 21, 2013
I'm into a new tripod + head and am just curious, how would you justify the price difference between those two comparable sets:
- Tripod: C2580T 12 kg = 289 euro
- Head: Benro B2 20kg = 159 euro
Total of 448 euro
- GT2541 = 569 euro
- Markins Q10 (knop) 359 euro
Total of 928 euro
I like Gitzo but the price difference is huge........
Both tripods are from Carbon, have similar load capacity etc etc.
Benro reviews are also very good..
So......Should I pay 480 euro more as hobbyist?

Warner throws four TD passes, Faulk scores three
ATLANTA (AP) -- The St. Louis Rams showed just how dominating
they can be when they don't turn the ball over.
Kurt Warner, Marshall Faulk and Co. thoroughly overwhelmed the
Atlanta Falcons, cruising to a 35-6 victory Sunday.
Warner threw four touchdown passes and had his seventh 300-yard
game of the season. Three of his scoring passes went to Faulk, who
got his 100th career TD.
Clearly, this wasn't the same Rams team that lost to Tampa Bay
on Monday night.
"When we play football like we did today, I like our chances
against anybody," said Dre Bly, who returned an interception for a
Did the Falcons play poorly or are they simply not in the same league as the Rams?
If the Rams don't turn the ball over, nobody can beat them. And when Chris Chandler went down, the Falcons' chances went with him.
The Falcons had won three straight coming into this game. But when Warner, Faulk and Co. are on, St. Louis is virtually impossible to beat.
The Rams' defense played tough, too, limiting Atlanta to just two first-half field goals.
ESPN.com's Vinny Cerrato was director of player personnel for the Redskins and 49ers.
St. Louis (9-2) lost to the Buccaneers 24-17 largely because of
turnovers. There were three fumbles, then Warner was picked off on
the final two possessions.
The Rams came to Atlanta leading the NFL with 32 giveaways -- 20
in the last four games. At the end of the day, they still had 32.
"If you bring it to their attention, and tell them they've got
to protect that ball better, keep that ball squeezed, then they do
it and it's done," coach Mike Martz said. "That's the kind of
guys they are."
It didn't hurt to be playing the Falcons (6-5), who came in as a
surprise playoff contender but have been thoroughly dominated by
the Rams for three years.
Warner and the league's most explosive offense were coldly
efficient against Atlanta, which had won three straight and four of
five to eclipse its victory total from each of the last two
None of that mattered with St. Louis in the house. The Falcons
have been outscored 197-75 in losing five straight games to their
NFC West rival.
"We are real disappointed," coach Dan Reeves said. "We didn't
stand up to the test. We thought we had a good chance."
Not against Warner, who was 17-of-23 for 342 yards. His career
numbers against the Falcons are staggering: 83-of-127 for 1,377
yards, 15 touchdowns and just two interceptions in five games.
"We really don't have any concerns," Warner said. "Obviously,
we're trying to rid ourselves of (the turnovers). But bottom line,
we've got to continue to make plays. We can't change our
personality of what we do. We have to stay on the attack and be
Faulk had touchdown catches of 19 and 9 yards before a 65-yard
play in the third quarter made him the 13th player in NFL history
to score 100 touchdowns. He is tied with Franco Harris on the
career list.
Overall, Faulk had six catches for 128 yards. He also ran 12
times for 70 yards.
"I always want the ball," he said.
The Falcons had the ball first, only to make the biggest mistake
of the day. On the fourth play from scrimmage, Chris Chandler threw
into double coverage and was picked off Bly, who streaked 56 yards
the other way for a touchdown.
The unusually raucous Georgia Dome fans quickly settled back in
their seats, knowing they had seen this all before.
"It was a play we had been working all week," Bly said. "I
just got a great read on the quarterback. I read him the whole way
and made the play on it."
The Falcons actually kept the game close until halftime by
holding the ball for nearly 21 minutes.
Still, the Rams had a 14-6 lead. They blew it open with two more
touchdowns in the third, including Warner's 45-yard touchdown pass
to Torry Holt on the third play from scrimmage.
Chandler wasn't around for the end. He was knocked down by Grant
Wistrom after completing a pass on the next-to-last play of the
first half, severely spraining his left ankle.
"We were moving the ball good, we just couldn't capitalize in
the red zone," said Chandler, who was 14-of-18 for 123 yards.
After the interception, the Falcons drove St. Louis territory on
their next four possessions, but wound up with only two field
goals. Jay Feely also missed twice.
Michael Vick, the NFL's No. 1 draft pick, played most of the
second half, with third-stringer Doug Johnson getting some work
when the game got out of hand.
Chandler has been plagued by injuries throughout his career. He
already had missed one game and been knocked out of two others
because of various ailments.
The Falcons dropped to 2-13 since the start of the 1999 season
when Chandler leaves the game or doesn't play because of an
Game notes
Vick was 7-of-18 passing for 94 yards. He also ran six times
for 52 yards. ... The Rams finished with a 422-320 edge in total
yards. ...Jamie Martin finished up at quarterback for St. Louis.
... The Falcons played their second straight game without strong
safety Gerald McBurrows (knee). ... The Falcons, who came in with a
plus-7 turnover differential, also lost a fumble late in the game.

Omg – I know a what a Cuban Lesbian looks like!
I'm taking my last stroll around the market – actually I have 5 pesos left & I want a hat from Cuba for myself. I bought Mujasi a hat when I first got here, but I want one for me. I find the one I want & she says $5 pesos, but I hesitate and she says $4.
I tell her I'm looking around. While I stroll around, one of the vendors, a young man selling wooden figures, calls me "lady" and wants me to come to his booth and look at his treasures.
Everything at this market has to be made by someone who is either the vendor or someone the vendor personally knows – in Cuba of course.
I tell him I'll look but I'm not a 'lady', I am a womon. He is confused and struggles to say that he thinks 'lady' and 'womon' are the same. I tell him no, and struggle to define lady in Spanish. He tells me he understands.
I tell him therefore, I am not a lord's (or any man's) lady, I do not believe in aristocracy, and neither do I do what society says womyn should do.
Then, as he moves closer and scrutinizes me, he asks me about my Black Womyn's Lives Matter shirt and who is Marissa? I tell him about the movement, police violence, and Marissa firing a warning shot.
He wants to know why I am not like other womyn. I tell him I don't understand. He says, well I'm not wearing any makeup, my nails are not painted, I'm looking relaxed and very strong … he struggles for the right words … I am dressed differently and not wearing heels. Can you imagine heels at an outdoor market spread out on dirt?
It then occurs to me that he might be asking me to come out to him and so I do. I laugh & say I'm a lesbian – I don't need a man or need to dress to appeal to a man.
He tells me I don't look like a lesbian. I say really but this IS what a lesbian looks like. I say what does a Cuban lesbian look like? And he tells me like a man. I smile broadly and say really? GREAT! I've been looking for 2 weeks now for Cuban lesbians and haven't found any.
He tells me his friend at this very market is a lesbian. I'm thrilled. I ask if she's a vendor and if she's here. He points her out to me and I immediately cross the market and introduce myself to her.
She looks nothing like a man but like a gorgeous dyke! She wears a large cowgirl-type hat sitting on a shaved head, grey t-shirt and shorts, large brown eyes and a beautiful welcoming smile. She is Niurys and immediately warmly embraces me when I tell her I'm a lesbian and have been looking for lesbians since I arrived.
I speak to her in Spanish with some English thrown in, I want to talk so fast. The other vendor selling with her under the canopy is a guy who also laughs and tells me I have come to the right place. I'm bummed that I'm just meeting her now 2 hours before I have to leave, but so very happy to meet her.
We exchange emails and street addresses and promise to keep in touch. While we're talking, another womon vendor, her long abundant salt and pepper hair pulled back in a pony tail, approaches her to ask a question. She introduces us and tells me this womon is also a lesbian. We all beam at each other before the new womon hurries back to her booth.
When I talk about going to Holguin to the Lucha contra homophobia, Niurys tells me she was there – and with a lot of her friends. I tell her I didn't see any lesbians from where I was sitting, only a lot of men – but she was there. She takes out a picture of her brother, who is also gay and a dancer now living in Mazatlan Mexico. She also has an old picture of her mother that she shows me.
It occurs to me to ask her about womyn farmers living on the land together. She shakes her head sadly and says she lives in the city and doesn't know anyone living in the country nor has she heard of such a place but would love to know about it.
We talk about keeping in touch and getting together when I return, which I HOPE will be soon!
My last fuckin day … omg – I guess I should have gone around the market asking people if they know of any lesbians. The vendors tend to change every few days at the market – there might even be more womyn there! I can't wait to write to Niurys and find out more! AND to return!
Coffee – and the germans furiously smoking again or maybe still – awaits our arrival. It is served in dainty espresso-sized tiny-pink-flowered china cups with matching petite saucer. It is delicious, grown, harvested, roasted and ground there on site.
And slices of pineapple – also grown and harvested right there.
There are tables and chairs sitting under a large thatched roof and as I walk toward the outer edge, I can see so far down and across, I see beyond the land, endless water. The guide who lives here tells me that I am viewing the largest bay in Cuba.
There is the ubiquitous bar, small and off to a corner, then a wooden path lined by various doors on which Spanish signs hang that say: kitchen, storage room, and home – all beautiful dark reddish-brown, colored by the rich earth, small buildings with tile or thatched roofs. And two 'regular' bathrooms with a single white ceramic flush toilet and sink in each.
Before we begin our descent to the waterfall, the guide whose name I have unfortunately forgotten, points out the fruit trees, vegetables, pineapple, and even the coffee growing among and between the wild habitat.
He says he speaks Dutch and English, not German. The germans tell him no problem, to speak English. I think one of the men speaks better English then the others, and maybe they all understand a little.
Our guide tells us this national forest has been protected now since the revolution and this nature center has existed for the past 10 years. He points to another section of the land blaringly barren and devastated amidst the surrounding beauty but, he claims, slowly recovering (although I fail to see the recovery) where the u.s. began mining nickel over 100 years ago.
We are taken off the main path opposite the wreckage, to a little overhang and the view captures all our elation! Waterfalls, arroyos, vegetation abound. The guide points out a rainforest below, that I have a hard time distinguishing from the rest of the vegetation.
He tells us there are no big animals there but snakes, scorpions, "raton"-like small animals (that are not rats), and many birds and butterflies. He says there are no poisonous creatures or plants on the entire Island and the biggest mammal are wild pigs that live in deeply forested areas.
He tells us about the indigenous people, who live simply and probably closest to nature and their pre-genocide/colonization ancestors of all Cubans in the mountainous forests and who once a year or two, make the journey into the woods to capture some of the pigs.
He says the whole odyssey lasts several weeks and people end up walking maybe 200 kilometers before finding and capturing the pigs – some of whom are slaughtered and sold to support and feed the people, others are kept to be domesticated.
Julio has already told me there was only one large creature who came out of the seas but lived in the trees many many eons ago but he didn't know the name in English and we couldn't figure out what it could be. He also said the next largest animal was a wild dog that was endemic (he likes that word) to Cuba that never barked! How wonderful.
We continue down the path, even as I wish we could have climbed up first, to our next stop, an ancient system that appears to hang over the cliff and I think he says it created energy from water for the revolution and was discontinued after the revolution, but there are future plans for it to be renovated and reactivated.
The guide and I speak in Spanish, as the germans go ahead of us. He shows me an empty hummingbird nest, and reiterates what Julio has told me: Cuba has three hummingbirds: a larger one that is native to Cuba, a medium sized one that migrates here, and a smaller one, that is also native and is the smallest hummingbird in the world!
This nest is made by the biggest hummingbird. The guide tells me he has seen another nest in the forest that has the most minuscule babies in it but this is the only nest we'll see today.
We arrive at a very noisy intersection where water is rushing through pipes and some kind of mechanical metal thing is loudly moving up and down. I've been thinking all along as he talks about the water system, he is saying 'bomb'. The germans are also confused.
Finally I get it – a pump! The germans repeat, oh pumpa.
The guide tells us when they first opened the nature center, they used so much electricity, I can't remember how much they had to pay, but it practically closed them before they could get established but 6 years ago they found a very old man who was a farmer living in the mountains with this pump. They brought the old man to the center and bought his pump, which he explains, is totally mechanical and somehow provides all the energy they need – and for free – once they installed it here.
He told me it's a pump that all farmers in the mountains – I think who lived along or close to the rivers – used to use to get energy for free.
I'm too excited to run this morning and anyway, I'm planning on getting my exercise doing some mountain climbing today. I need to be on the hotel steps by 7:15 but breakfast doesn't start until 7. I want to make a sandwich maybe and get some fruit and certainly fill up my coffee mug.
The restaurant womyn let me in 5 minutes early when I explain where I'm going, so I cut some bread, grab a banana and a couple of hard boiled eggs while I wait impatiently until 7 on the dot when the scrambled eggs and yummy beans come out of the kitchen to the buffet table. I hurriedly try to make a sandwich as one of the womyn returns with my filled coffee cup and offers me an empty plastic paper napkin bag.
Stocked up I'm downstairs by 7:10 to find Julio is already waiting for me on the steps. He is not driving a jeep but a new-looking-without-the-new-car-smell, thank goodness, white 4 door Chinese car. He speaks pretty good English – and French, German, Italian, and of course Spanish – but I tell him I prefer to try to speak Spanish.
He graciously says he also prefers espanol and he will help me speak correct Spanish.
We drive a few minutes to another big hotel to pick up the germans who are coming on the tour with us. There, another driver and car – this time one of the burgundy jeeps – await with not two german men like I was told to expect, but two german straight couples smoking like they're on fire. Grrrrr
I'm so very lucky because they do not want to split up so Julio and I change cars – we get the jeep and I get a great tour guide all to myself – and we take off east toward Pinares de Mayari, behind the white car.
I can barely contain my excitement – to be leaving this heavily touristed area and to experience the drive to and to be at the most beautiful place in Cuba!
I ask Julio if it's okay with him that we go solo. He quickly first assures me with a broad smile, it is okay then goes on to explain wryly that it just means a smaller tip for him – and I think, oh no, of course, a larger tip from me.
I have exactly $20 pesos left to my name and 2 more days in Cuba. I really don't need to spend any money but I wanted to have some money to give Josefa (even though I told her I did not have money for her) and tips for the womyn who will clean my room today and who help me at the restaurant.
Plus I was hoping to buy a Cuban hat for me and maybe a similar one for Mujasi. Oh well.
After a few minutes of worrying, I ask Julio if he will still get paid the same even though he's taking only me. He explains that he is on salary so he gets paid the same no matter how many passengers he has but nevertheless, he will lose money today.
He has to pay to wash the car and pay the office $1 peso whenever he takes people out. I ask if that is so he can be the driver chosen for the trip. He says, no, driving is his job but that the people in the office also want a tip but they never get one because they're rarely in direct contact with the tourists (i.e. potential tippers) so the drivers have agreed to pay one peso for every tour in hopes that they will make more than that in tips.
He then explains to me what most Cubans have confirmed: he makes around $250 or 300 pesos a month, which is about $20-30 CUCs. With three children, a wife, old parents, a sister with children whose husband is for some reason not around (I don't ask), and a brother who is just starting out on a farm, he really wants more money to share with everyone.
I tell him I have only $20 pesos remaining for my entire time left in Cuba, cual estan solo dos mas dias, but I will share them with him – even though I had been hoping the germans were at least rich and generous (talk about {oxy}morons…), relieving me from the need to tip generously.
But here we are, with me in the jeep by myself with a wonderful guide willing to speak and correct my Spanish, so fortunate I was able to find a way to the one place I REALLY wanted to see in all of Cuba – well the 2nd most wanted, as I never found the womyn farmers.
I give him the $10 pesos and he slips the bill into his pocket in concert with the slip of any former emotion from his being, donning the now familiar expressionless face and still internal place everyone here seems to go to when receiving a 'gift' from me.
Our first stop is at una finca, a farm. It is quite beautiful but as we pull in and he explains the family is expecting us and has prepared fruit and coffee for us, I realize with horror they will be hoping for a tip.
After apologizing profusely, I reluctantly ask him if it's okay if he gives them $1 peso from the $10 tip I just gave him. He assures me it is no problem but I imagine I see pain in his eyes – he's probably already divied up the money in his head and now has to calculate where the missing dollar is going to be taken from.
The germans get there before us and are already sipping coffee and eating fruit. I'm delighted to be at such a lovely farm, that I'm sure is mostly representative of Cuba, but also tweaked for tourists.
I see the farmer off in the field trudging behind 2 huge oxen sporting more ribs than muscle, dragging a plow. As I get closer I see he is drenched in sweat, wearing light colored but long-sleeved shirt and matching pants with no hat. He speaks with me in Spanish, I'm thrilled, and explains he intends to plant more papaya and maybe bananas in this field.
He then leaves the oxen mid-plowed row in the heat and sun to show me around the farm. There are several 'corrals' where chickens with chicks, a turkey or two, and a female peacock are scratching the ground for food, or another pen with a medium-sized grey pig lounges with a little pig nudging her but not nursing.
A parrot perched on the roof over a doorway of one of the 3 or 4 small cement or wood buildings screeches "hola" and I'm told it is endemic to Cuba, but domesticated. There's pineapple planted everywhere and several fruit trees providing lots of shade plus delicious fruit: mango, guanabana (with no ripe fruit much to my chagrin), avocado (also no ripe fruit – August he says), coconut, and many banana palms.
He picks a short, fat banana and gives to me, which I promptly devour.
He points out the guinea pigs mixed in with the chickens and then takes me over to a little cement pond with two salt-water tortugas who have adapted to fresh water, that he says of course are endangered, and are protected in Cuba. I ask if I can feed any of his animals the banana skin. He says all of them will eat it, so I hand feed the turtles and the guinea pigs – the chicks ignore me, they're finding better treats in the dirt.
An old man wheels out of one of the small wooden buildings with a thatched roof. He is missing one leg but seems to traverse the dirt and stone paths easily. I find out he's the original farmer and the father of the man I've been following around the farm.
The germans have been ready to leave for awhile and I notice all the fruit has been eaten. I'm happy with my luscious banana although I would have liked some papaya.
We tumble back into the car and as we drive out, Julio spots both the male peacock and 2 immature adults. He stops so I can take a picture as I ask him if this finca is typical of Cuban farms. He says almost – that the biggest difference is the animals displayed for the tourists: the guinea pigs, the peacocks, and the tortugas. Everything else – the structure, size and number of buildings, the oxen and plow, the chickens, fruit trees, outdoor fire for cooking, are all found on farms around Cuba.
He thought there also were smoother paths here and more concrete floors than usual because of the father needing to get around mostly in a wheelchair.
As we drive out the farm back onto the road to Pinares, he asks me if I like birds. I tell him I love birds, of course, and he explains to me that he is just learning how to identify the birds of Cuba and would I like for him to show me?
Oh yes I would and so for the whole trip, he listens, hears a tweet or a whistle, stops and we get out of the car to find the source of the music. He has a little cell phone where he has recorded bird sounds with their names in Spanish and English that he sometimes plays both for me so I can distinguish which song I'm listening to and so he can attract that particular bird closer to the highway so I can see it.
He suddenly stops and points out a small green heron across the road half a soccer field away, happily pecking at short green stalks that Julio explains are rice fields. Of course they are, I can see now. On our side of the road where the rice fields continue, he points out a white egret bent over long legs, also happily feeding.
When we start back on the road, he begins to speed, saying we should catch up to the germans. I'm holding my breath hoping he doesn't squash any of the multitudes of folks standing, waiting to cross, or walking along the road – not to mention the slow-moving horses and carts, and the bicyclists!
He asks me if I want to know about the geology of this area.
What a treasure! A guide who speaks many languages, drives skillfully (if too fast), knows and can attract his Cuban birds by sound, and is willing to share information about the geology of Cuba. And is so modest, explaining he is just learning himself.
I learn the kinda flat area we're now passing thru used to be under water (several thousands or millions of years ago) where a channel between the two allowed the Atlantic Ocean from the south to mix with into the Caribbean Sea from the north. He points out the mountains on both the east and west sides and says that over time the land lifted and sediment from the mountains filled in the channel but it remains rich in calcium even today.
With a broad wave, he highlights the tall endemic palms that grow profusely everywhere the land is not cultivated and end abruptly where the land starts to rise into mountains, saying this variety need lots of calcium to thrive.
It is breathtakingly beautiful here – not just the mountains and plains, but the houses, the farms, the animals, and the lovely people who are so racially mixed I rarely see groups of dark-skinned people without light skinned people, or light skinned people without dark skinned people – whether they are: driving or riding a bus, truck or horse & buggy, working in the fields, hanging in doorways, etc.
I think my daughter and my grandson would feel so comfortable living here.
Julio says that he thinks the people have forgotten that before the revolution it was bad to be dark skinned and better to be light skinned and that such a notion is now very foreign, especially amongst the youth up to middle-aged people.
We give up trying to catch up with the germans and stop several more times, whether to take pictures of spectacular views, to seek out the birds – and now we've added butterflies to the book of knowledge Julio is sharing with me – or to learn about unique land formations and endemic wildlife.
The road we travel is mostly smooth, although in places it is deeply rutted, especially as we get closer to the mountain. It also is getting cooler and the sky fills with grayish clouds.
Julio tells me he is trying to expand his work: he believes he's lucky he has a job he loves, being a tour guide and one that doesn't compromise his values, but he wants to go deeper for his spiritual life, he says, and be a guide for people who love nature, as he does. And as I do. We're a good match!
To my horror, he talks about building a cage for butterflies on his land so he can invite tourists, introduce then to the butterflies of Cuba, and stay home while making money.
When I question the caging poor butterflies and the impact on his spiritual being, he assures me that he will make it huge and comfortable for them. I tell him he cannot make it as vast as their natural habitat and roaming grounds.
I suggest he figure out the plants that attract the butterflies he wants to acquaint people with and let them come naturally to him. I tell him he can also grow things that attract bees and certain birds, and have a huge natural open air natural sanctuary with vegetations native to Cuba as well.
I tell him that every place I've been where butterflies are trapped and on display, the ground is littered with dead butterflies. He says everything has to die and I ask him if he knows of Malala, the young girl from Afghanistan who rallied the poorly armed Afghan people to fight the invasion of English soldiers.
I paraphrased her inspiring cry – or maybe it was someone else's – that it is better to live one day free than 100 years enslaved.
I told him I think that applies to everyone and everything alive, human, insect or animal.
Which leads us into a discussion about what is freedom. He says he knows that u.s.ofa. people (even Cubans who now live in the u.s.) think they are free because they can say whatever they want and that Cubans here are not free because we in the u.s. think that Cubans cannot say whatever they want.
He says in Cuba, we have two words for freedom: libertad and then libertadano – or something, I should have written it down.
The first one, he says is true freedom, that the Cubans have, the freedom to be happy and do whatever you want for yourself as you make the life you wish to live, but you have to live within the rules that society has made up. He said in Cuba it is very clear if someone offends you or does something against you, you cannot retaliate but you have to go to the government and they will handle everything.
The other freedom, the fake freedom, (which I forget the word for) is what he thinks we have in the u.s. – the freedom to live a life doing and saying whatever you want whether it hurts other people or not, with impunity. He says this is false freedom and does not lead to the happy, peaceful, content life of Cubans.
I begin to say offense is a tricky thing, remembering my red-faced screaming and offended racist. But I want to talk about freedom instead.
So I ask him, can he talk opening and critically about the government? He kind of asks me if I know who Castro is. Before I can say of course, he tells me do I remember what Castro said when he was on trial and facing imprisonment if not death during the revolution.
He tells me Castro was/is a lawyer and he wanted to defend himself. When he was asked why he fights, he said he believes every Cuban deserves a safe,secure home where they can raise their children; a good education so every Cuban can have choices and live a good life, and good health through access to medical services.
And Castro has given these things to the people, he has made good on his promises –and I think unlike most 'politicians'. I also wonder, once again, what part of capitalism would we in the u.s. be willing to 'give up' if we could have politicians who fulfilled their promises?
I noticed rows and rows of obviously planted trees that are neither nut nor fruit that I recognize. Julio tells me these are neem trees and are used for good pesticides for crops that are endangered by disease and insect infestation. He tells me the government and farmers and looking for more and more ways to combat the enemies of farms, like neem and ladybugs – although he calls them something else (which I have forgotten) in Spanish.
I'm so pleasantly surprised – I've only learned about neem since my daughter was pregnant, wow almost 9 years ago. I ask if neem is endemic to Cuba and he says, India.
He tells me last week, when all the trees where in bloom, the smell was so delicious. On our way back, he will stop and find a blossom for me to smell!
We have crossed two railroad tracks and one intersection while making our way up to the mountains. Only the road intersection has stop signs – the tracks are unmarked. Julio jokes about how slowly the trains go, which confirms what I've heard, so there is no problem seeing them, and probably hearing them, long before they cross the road.
We don't see any.
The road is now totally dirt and becomes darker and darker reddish brown the higher we go. And more gullied and pitted! Finally we arrive at our destination and I'm overcome again with the beauty that is Cuba.
My new friend Eric joins me at the dinner table tonight. I've asked him to introduce me to the filmmaker and he's promised he will.
She has not yet arrived but when she does, we move to the table where she sits with another u.s. member of the film crew. I'm thrilled to meet her and tell her that, even though I've always wanted to come to Cuba, her movie really inspired me to get here.
Before Eric could sit down, a Cuban man, who was in the original film, joined us. It was interesting talking with him, although until he left the table, he dominated the conversation.
He is very worried about the impact of more u.s. tourists to Cuba & believes it is the government's goal to accommodate 10 million tourists a year – which doubles the population of Cuba; and increases the disparity now growing in recent years between those that live close to tourist areas and those that don't.
He also talked the impact of global warming that Cuba is already facing with the rising seas: their fresh water aquifers are being infiltrated by salt water, and already many crops are being negatively impacted, like potatoes and yams.
He is a physicist and when he found out I'm from California, he talked about how he was invited to California in 1999 when Enron & Texas destroyed our energy supply with their greed and shenanigans.
He said the u.s. people did not phrase the problem correctly: it was not Texas or Enron or what's-his-face, but the system of delivery of energy itself.
Which led to a discussion about the 2nd grape boycott when we found out how much wineries were destroying the earth with the methyl whatever they were dumping on the ground to grow grapes supposedly better and more rapidly than growing organically.
He parroted the mantra of George Lakoff - and others when the elections were 'lost' to Bush - about how the left doesn't use the same brilliant techniques as the right to convince people to join the movement.
Of course I tried to claim it wasn't 'techniques' that pushed Bush to power but the Supreme Court, the purging of Black voters in Florida for the first 'election', not to mention the sketchy electronic voting machines.
He claimed boycotting grapes was not the issue: ending the use of pesticides was. I tried to explain to him the United Farm Workers movement which had an enormous successful grape and lettuce boycott several decades ago, so people already were clued in to a grape boycott.
He didn't think people understand what the issue is if it's a grape boycott but a pesticide boycott is much clearer – which is probably is – and we need to use the same marketing tactics as the right.
I tried to tell him those people have millions upon billions of dollars to sit the average u.s. schmo in a room and inundate them with clever programming and brilliant lies to see what they will fall for or not.
Our discussion became more heated as he insisted the left must engage in the same verbal marketing tactics as the right.
I tried to tell him that maybe the simple truth might prevail at some point. But he wasn't having it.
He got up for more food and I was able to talk with the two other womyn briefly before I had to leave. I'm very happy to have had this experience. I can't wait to see the new film!

Help with Nikon Transfer
May 5, 2014
I had switch computers and loaded Nikon Transfer to load pics from my D300, Problem is when they show up on the screen they all have a Lock showing at the bottom corner, I have looked at all tabs looking for a way to disable the lock photos, and see nothing, I had re set all camera setting to default just in case it was there too..
Any and all help or suggestions?? Funny thing is, when I zoom in on the pics in the Transfer they show super large, but only transfer as a 11x9" image
I would really be grateful for any help in this matter, I also downloaded NX2 but see no way of opening pics in that or when you turn on camera to upload, there is no choice to pick NX2
Thanks for any and all suggestions

There was a poignant moment as the Black Sticks headed to their dressing room after reaching the semifinals of the Olympics for the first time, following a scoreless draw against world No 3 Germany tonight.
Captain Kayla Sharland yelled down the tunnel "Samantha Harrison" and the striker turned around and did a wee dance before screaming "yes, yes, yes".
Only moments earlier tough as teak Black Sticks coach Mark Hager needed time to compose himself when asked about the significance of their achievement.
"At the beginning if you had said we'd make the semifinals, people would've laughed at us," Hager said.
"I'm ecstatic. It is so pleasing to have a shot at a medal now."
The Black Sticks end pool play on 10 points, good enough for second in Group B, behind the winner of the late match between Argentina and Australia (8.15am Tuesday NZ time).
The Black Sticks will almost certainly now meet world No 1 the Netherlands in a semifinal on Wednesday, provided the Dutch don't suffer a shock last round loss to Great Britain (6.15am Tuesday NZ time).
The previous best result by the Black Sticks women at an Olympics was sixth, in 1984, 2000 and 2004, and the best by a New Zealand hockey side is the gold medal by the men in Montreal in 1976.
The Black Sticks are fast becoming New Zealand's feel good story of the Games.
Ranked sixth in the world and in the pool of the death, most considered them fun to watch but hardly semifinal potential.
They started tonight's game only needing a draw to make the semis, not that the players realised that.
"We didn't tell the girls the permutations, except we told them if you lose by three goals we are out," Hager said.
Sharland admitted she was in the dark when the final hooter sounded.
"I didn't know we needed a draw to get through so that was why I was trying to run off and score a goal," she said.
"We were nervous coming into this game. We knew how much it meant to this group and it is huge. It is such a special group and the last 10 minutes we chased and chased and got there in the end."
It was heart in the mouth material for most of the second half but this team is nothing if not plucky and their goalkeeper Bianca Russell the star of this campaign to date.
Germany had two disallowed goals, a 6-4 penalty corner advantage and had 11 shots on goal to five by the Black Sticks but for all that you did get the feeling that the world No 3 side could still be there at midnight without scoring a legitimate goal.
The Black Sticks started the game on the right note, creating a couple of clear chances only for poor finishing to let them down. Charlotte Harrison crashed a ball into the side netting from close range and Katie Glynn was too slow in the circle after being put in a one-on-one situation with goalkeeper Yvonne Frank.
Because the Black Sticks were generally on the defensive, most of their heroes last night were at the back. Clarissa Eshuis, another enjoying a fine tournament had a good game. Further forward Stacey Michelsen was tireless. But on the day no one could top Russell.
"Bianca has been fantastic," Hager said.
"She has had to make a lot of saves. She has made the bread and butter ones and now again made a special one so it's fantastic."

Nice, but you didn't use threads :(
It's really easy to make it use threads in python, and it'll give a huge performance increase.
Just make the hash checking a function, and use "thread.start_new_thread" to start the function in a new thread.
Other than that, great! Very well explained, and nice code examples!
can it crack that hash?

Because the guy who decides what bills go to the floor and get voted on is named Harry Reid and comes from Nevada. Neither senator from Texas has that power.
But if they did, the parks and monuments, cancer research, veterans' benefits, and many other parts of the federal government would now be funded and functioning properly.

Land Rover U.S. Eventing Team Looks For Victory in Aachen CICO3* Debut
RELEASE: June 27, 2013
AUTHOR/ADMINISTRATOR: USEF Communications Department
Lexington, KY
- The Land Rover U.S. Eventing Team heads to a mecca of horse sport this week to compete at the Aachen CICO3* for the first time. Eventing competition will be held over two days, June 28-29, at the prestigious German venue which hosted the 2006 FEI World Equestrian Games. On Friday competitors will perform their dressage tests early in the day before heading to the Main Stadium in the evening for the show jumping phase. Following the conclusion of Saturday's cross country Team and Individual honors will be awarded.
Clark Montgomery and Universe (Mike McNally)
The United States will be represented by four formidable combinations looking to showcase the form that has earned them top placings and accolades throughout the 2013 season. Clark Montgomery , Tiana Coudray, Marilyn Little and Will Faudree have all received Land Rover Competition Grants to compete against many of the best in the world in Aachen.
Montgomery (Wiltshire, UK) has been based in the UK since the end of last year and has already found success. With his Aachen partner, Jessica Montgomery, Carole Montgomery, Janet Higgins, and Elizabeth Smith's Universe, he collected a seventh place finish at the Belton CIC3*. In May, they completed the Mitsubishi Motors Badminton Horse Trials in 27th place in the horses first attempt at the CCI4* level.
Coudray (Ojai, CA) brings her 2012 Olympic Games partner Jatial Inc.'s Ringwood Magister to the Aachen CICO3* this week. The British-based combination, known for their proficiency in the first phase, completed their first Mitsubishi Motors Badminton Horse Trials in May in 17th place.
Marilyn Little and RF Smoke on the Water (Shannon Brinkman)
Little (Frederick, MD) is utilizing a Land Rover Competition Grant for a second time this week in Aachen. In May, she competed in France at the Saumur CCI3* finishing in eighth place with Raylyn Farms Inc. and Phoebe and Michael Manders' RF Smoke on the Water. Little will again ride the talented gelding in Aachen and look to display the form that earned them the 2012 USEF National CCI3* Eventing Reserve Championship.
Faudree (Hoffman, NC) has been on a tear in 2013 collecting top placings on U.S. soil and abroad with Jennifer Mosing's talented string of horses. In Aachen, he will ride Mosing's 2012 Plantation Field International CIC3* winner Pawlow. In April, the pair completed the Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event presented by Land Rover for the second time, finishing in sixth place.
This is Faudree's second Land Rover Competition Grant funded trip to Europe in 2013. In May, he also competed in Saumur with Mosing's Andromaque finishing in fifth at the CCI3*.
Montgomery will be the first competitor down centerline at 8:30am CEST, Coudray will follow at 10:03am CEST, Little will perform her test at 11:52am CEST. Faudree will anchor the team and head into the arena at 2:07pm CEST.
