Bruce Ware's Father, Son and Holy Spirit, an excellent book on the Trinity, is just $3.99. Here are a couple more deals: Hitler in the Crosshairs by John Woodbridge ($3.99); The Case for Christ Student Edition by Lee Strobel ($2.99); The Student Edition of The Case for Faith (which I haven't read) is also at $2.99.
Filled with Frogs - Mark Altrogge: "If Pittsburgh were overrun by frogs, and even the Steelers had frogs in their bedrooms, I don't think I'd forget that. But God knows our tendency to forget, so he warned Israel about forgetting his mighty deliverance. And you know what? They forgot."
The Sufficiency of Scripture - The sufficiency of Scripture is a very important doctrine that we neglect to our peril. This is a good article to read in order to brush up on what it means and why it matters.
The Thrill of the Chaste - From Christianity Today: "Women have always longed for the men of romance novels. In some ways, that's what romance novels are for. The latest romance subgenre, though, has its own effects. Not only may readers of Amish fiction compare their husbands' bodies to a hunky hero like Levi Yoder, but also their own households to the bucolic, romanticized Amish life."
The Glory of God - If you've ever tried to define what you mean by "the glory of God" you know just how difficult it is. Andy Naselli looks to a ThM thesis and offers help.
Ask.fm - CNet writes about another place teens are hanging out online: "Spy on Ask.fm's public stream and you'll feel like you've been transported back to middle school, dumped in the center of he-said, she-said dramas — sometimes innocuous, sometimes not. Here, hormone-crazed young boys and girls banter about their after-school plans, tease their peers, boast about their most recent hookups, and try to appear cool with expletives and graphic language."
The more purely God's word is preached, the more deeply it pierces and the more kindly it works. —William Gouge

The Film:
Steve Coogan has given us a number of amazing performances from "Tristram Shandy" to "Philomena," but one of his most famous characters has remained Alan Partridge, a presenter he has played on numerous radio and television shows for over 20 years. At long last, the character has been given the big screen treatment in the aptly-titled "Alan Partridge," or for those of you across the pond, "Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa." As the film begins, we discover that the titular radio DJ's station is being taken over by a conglomerate, leading to a little restructuring. In an act of self-preservation, Alan (Coogan) recommends that the night DJ, Pat Farrell (Colm Meaney), be let go, a recommendation that they follow through on. However, Pat doesn't take it so well, causing him to storm into an office party with a gun and take hostages, with a main condition being that he'll only negotiate with Alan. Reluctantly, Alan goes in to talk with him, leading to a long and bizarre encounter that not only has him trying to rescue the hostages, but also attempting a leap forward in his career.
Having never seen any of Coogan's previous work with the character, this was basically my introduction to him. After sitting through the film, my main reaction is that I certainly hope the material prior to this was better, especially given that this has been perhaps the longest-enduring character of his career, because based on the film alone, there doesn't seem to be any reason as to why he would be particularly popular. As a comic character, "Alan Partridge" is filled with many attempts at humor, but unfortunately only one or two of the jokes muster even the smallest giggle. However, that's not even the film's biggest issue. That would be that the screenwriters (all five of them) have put together a premise that allows for all kinds of things to happen, and then fail to take advantage of it. This gives the feeling of a film that has a setup, then just kind of keeps going with no destination in particular.
Ultimately, it's this meandering nature of the film, coupled with the lack of good humor, which brings it down. That's not even to mention the flat ending that the film finally arrives at 90 minutes later. How is it that five writers, including Coogan himself, couldn't give this film any direction or a satisfying ending? Perhaps it's simply a case of too many cooks in the kitchen, but if that were the case, you would think that there would be too much going on rather than not enough. Whatever the reasons were for its troubles, "Alan Partridge" fails to satisfy as a comedy or a thriller, merely leaving one with the hope that Coogan will bounce back with whatever he should pursue next.
"Alan Partridge" is presented in a 2.40:1, 1080p High Definition transfer of flawless quality. There's not one noticeable instance of blurriness or any other issues to be found, resulting in a picture that always looks crisp and clear. The 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio is a bit soft, but after a slight adjustment, the track sounds top-notch, presenting all sound elements in a crystal clear manner. Overall, both areas give you a great experience that could hardly be improved upon.
Special Features:
Making of Alan Partridge: A 12-minute featurette that features interviews with cast and crew in which they discuss the making of the film. It's a rather superficial look behind the scenes with only one or two informative bits of info, so it's not really worth the time to sit through.
Behind the Scenes: Less than two minutes of random behind the scenes footage of the film being shot. There's not much to see here, so it's easily skippable.
Alan Partridge may be one of Steve Coogan's enduring characters, but if this film is any indication, then perhaps it's a character better left to the radio and television mediums. As a film, "Alan Partridge" is too aimless and low on laughs to be worth the 90 minutes. It has a good start, but then this pack of writers becomes clueless as to where to go from there, leaving us with a film that is ultimately a big disappointment.

Abuse, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Migraine
Gretchen E. Tietjen, MD and Dawn C. Buse, PhD
Key Points:
Abuse is common worldwide and can be physical, sexual or emotional.
Victims and perpetrators of abuse can be any age, gender, or ethnic group.
The abused have higher rates of migraine than people without abuse.
Some victims develop post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) manifested by flashbacks, nightmares, increased anxiety, and avoidance of reminders of the event.
There is a strong link between migraine, abuse, and PTSD.
Psychological therapies are the mainstay of treatment; cognitive-behavioral therapies have the most evidence supporting their use; certain types of antidepressants may also be helpful.
If you or someone you know is a victim of current or ongoing abuse call the National Domestic Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE or law enforcement now.
Childhood Maltreatment and Migraine
Sadly, abuse is common. Abuse can happen to someone of any age, gender, and race, by someone of any age, gender, and race. Child abuse is especially heartbreaking. In 2009 alone, the U.S. Health And Human Services - Child Protective Services received more than 2 million reports of suspected child abuse. This number is likely lower than what actually occurs. It is believed that the majority of cases are not reported. In that same year, it was estimated that 1,760 children died in the US due to child abuse or neglect. The Federal Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) of 2003 defines child abuse and neglect. It states this to be: "Any recent act or failure to act on the part of a parent or caretaker which results in death, serious physical or emotional harm, sexual abuse or exploitation; or an act or failure to act which presents an imminent risk of serious harm." The US Department of Health and Human Services- Child Welfare Information Gateway calls these events "Childhood aversive experiences." These include:
• Abuse
– Emotional Abuse
– Physical Abuse
– Sexual Abuse
• Neglect
– Emotional Neglect
– Physical Neglect
• Household Dysfunction
– Mother Treated Violently
– Household Substance Abuse
– Household Mental Illness
– Parental Separation or Divorce
– Incarcerated Household Member
for more information.
Childhood maltreatment or abuse predicts many other possible problems. These occur both during childhood and adulthood. Problems include medical and psychological conditions. They sometimes include harm to others (called "revictimization" or inflicting abuse upon others). They sometimes include harm to oneself, such as cutting, burning oneself, or suicide attempts. These behaviors can last well into adulthood. Many persist throughout life if not treated. Several studies demonstrate that childhood injury or abuse makes it more likely to develop migraine later in life. The more severe the abuse, the stronger the link grows. These headaches are also more likely to be frequent and disabling. Severe abuse is also linked to other conditions, including chronic pain, fibromyalgia and irritable bowel disease.
Chronic maltreatment early in life alters the brain's response to stress. This may make it more likely to have migraine. A study of inflammatory blood tests suggests a mechanism for the link. In this study, adults showed higher levels of biomarkers in the bloodstream when exposed to abuse in childhood. Genes are also important in this process. Genes are responsible for how a person and their body respond to early stressful experiences. It is also possible that early stressful experiences may become hard-coded into DNA. This creates a memory of events that leads to impaired health at a later date.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Migraine
Childhood maltreatment, abuse or violence may lead to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) at a later age. PTSD is a condition that results from exposure to an event that caused feelings of intense fear, helplessness, or horror. Many traumatic stressors exist. These include natural disasters and transportation accidents. Others are physical and sexual assault such as rape and exposure to war or combat. Finding out about a traumatic event or about the violent death of a loved one may also lead to PTSD. The main symptoms of PTSD include 1) re-experiencing the traumatic event through flashbacks or nightmares; 2) avoiding reminders of the trauma; 3) increased anxiety and emotional arousal such as feeling irritable, jumpy, or being easily startled; and 4) feeling detached from others or emotionally "numb". Other symptoms may include feeling angry, guilty, hopeless, and experiencing physical aches and pains, including headache.
Studies show a connection between PTSD and migraine. PTSD occurs in about 10% of the general population. It is present in about 25% of patients in a headache clinic. About 50% of combat veteran clinic patients have headache. In one study of PTSD and migraine, nearly 60% reported physical or sexual abuse as the cause. Not unexpectedly, the presence of PTSD complicates migraine. In persons with migraine, headache frequency and headache-related disability are greater than in those without PTSD. Interestingly, in a study of the PTSD-migraine link, men with migraine were 3 times more likely to have PTSD than women with migraine.
PTSD Therapy
The process that links migraine and PTSD is not known. PTSD may affect the autonomic (or "automatic") nervous system. This part of the nervous system controls the "fight or flight" response. This is the body's natural response to danger. It is controlled by the hypothal-amus, pituitary and adrenal glands. Relaxation therapies can counter- act the "fight or flight" response. They engage the parasympathetic branch of the nervous system which controls the "relaxation response". The relaxation response can often be started through deep breathing or focusing on a pleasant image or memory. PTSD also affects the brain's corpus callosum, a bundle of nerve fibers that connect the right and left sides of the brain. In PTSD, the corpus callosum shrinks.
Cognitive behavioral therapies (CBT) have the best evidence for treating the effects of PTSD and abuse. CBT can be helpful both during and immediately following a traumatic experience, or years later to help one cope with the after effects. CBT can be used in adults, children, elderly or disabled persons. There are several subtypes of CBT with scientific data supporting their use for PTSD. Cognitive therapy involves identifying and managing distressing trauma-related thoughts and abnormal patterns of thinking. Exposure therapy involves reducing the fear associated with traumatic experiences. This occurs through repeated confrontation combined with relaxation. This can be for feared places, situations, memories, thoughts, and feelings. Stress inoculation therapy involves developing skills for managing stress and anxiety. Types of skills include deep breathing, muscle relaxation, assertiveness training, role playing, thought stopping, and positive thinking. In eye movement desensitization and resensitization (EMDR) therapy, a person focuses on emotionally disturbing material. At the same time they focus on an external stimulus. This is usually eye movements, hand tapping, or sounds. For people who struggle with self-harm behaviors, dialectic behavior therapy (DBT) is especially helpful. Behaviors include self-cutting or suicidal thoughts or actions. DBT is also useful for those making dangerous or unhealthy life choices. DBT combines the basic principles of CBT with relaxation training, mindfulness mediation, and other proven interventions.
For help finding a mental health provider who uses these therapies see the recommendations below. In addition, everyone can benefit from learning and practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation and visual imagery. There are many tools such as workbooks and self-guided audio resources available.
The role of medication for the treatment of PTSD is less firmly proven. Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) are a group of antidepressant medications. They are often prescribed for PTSD, but there is debate over the benefit. Studies in animals suggest that treatment with SSRIs may actually reverse some of the effects of maltreatment on the stress response. Other medications which are currently being investigated for the treatment of PTSD include beta-blockers (e.g. propranolol), Prazocin, and Ketamine. It is not recommended to take benzodiazepines, such as Valium, Ativan or Xanax, because they are not effective in treating PTSD and can be addictive.
Abuse is common in the US and around the world and can be physical, sexual or emotional.
Victims and perpetrators of abuse can be any age, gender, or ethnic group.
The abused have higher rates of migraine than those without abuse.
Some victims of abuse and other horrible events develop post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Symptoms of PTSD include flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, and avoidance of reminders of the event.
The occurrence of PTSD is 3 to 4 times more common in persons with migraine than those without migraine.
The brain-body stress response is altered in PTSD, and there may actually be changes in the structure of the brain as a result of PTSD.
Psychological therapies are the mainstay of treatment for PTSD and coping with the effects of abuse. Cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBT) have the most evidence supporting their use. Certain types of antidepressants (SSRIs) may also be helpful, either individually or in conjunction with psychotherapy.
Dialectic behavior therapy (DBT) can be helpful for someone who has difficulty with relationships or participates in self-harm or risks behaviors.
If you or someone you know is currently being abused call the National Domestic Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE or law enforcement immediately. Help is available.
If you have been a victim of abuse and/or have PTSD consider treatment.

Leave village where it's at
August 25, 2013
Allen Jacobson, Tolley Regarding your editorial in the Au....
Question: How come the state fair board isn't asking the Nodak Speedway to relocate? It would be a relief not to hear those roaring engines on Sunday night before I have to wake up on Monday morning. How come the Nodak Speedway has more sway and power than the Ward County Historical Society? Money talks.
If anything, the state fair board should be asking the Ward County Historical Society to stay and give them the help they really need.
A new state fair center located out of the flood plain is the the ideal plan, but you can't fight city hall and the powers that be at the state fair are going to call all of the shots, so it is a cinch that the Ward County Historical Society is going to move, er, be forced to move, and a new state fair center will be built in the flood plain. Stupid is as stupid does.
The Ward County Historical Society's Pioneer Village move to a new location is a blessing in disguise.
4 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Pioneer village is a good fit on the fairgrounds. It takes so little space it is hard to understand why Hostefest--i mean the state fair, wants them to move. Building a new event center in the flood plain is a total lack of respect for our tax money. The new water treatment plant and grandstand had to diked for the 2011 flood. Tax money paid for the dikes.
2 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Building an event center in the flood plain makes no sense. It just adds misery to an already problematic area. There are also few hotels and eating places out by the fair grounds. Why build there?

College Hockey:Niagara Scores Dramatic OT Win over WSU
Donovan Shines Again On Two Late Extra Attacker Goals
DETROIT — Nothing has been predictable for Niagara this season, so why should the Purple Eagles' semifinal have been any different?
Down 3-1 with 2:24 remaining in the third period, freshman Melanie Mills and junior Chelsea Donovan each connected with extra attacker goals to send the game into overtime. Then 3:01 into the extra frame, junior Meagan Smith scored on a pass from Mills to lift No. 3 seed Niagara (11-20-4) to a 4-3 victory over No. 2 seed Wayne State (14-16-5) at the Michigan State Fairgrounds Coliseum in Detroit, Mich., Thursday evening.
The win was the Eagles' first of the season out of 18 games in which they trailed after the second period. The Purple Eagles also become the first lower-seeded team to advance in any of D-I women's hockey's conference playoffs this season. Niagara won despite being outshot 40-18. The loss was heartbreaking for the tournament hosts.
Niagara has been among the most volatile teams in the country this year, having to adjust to the loss of its top scorer Ashley Riggs and Margot Page to the Olympics (Riggs was Canada's first cut). For example, the Eagles beat Brown 2-1 one day and lost to Yale 9-1 the next in November. In February, they beat Robert Morris 8-1 one day and lost 4-3 the next.
Lately, a consistent pattern has emerged in Niagara's season — beating Wayne State in dramatic fashion. The Purple Eagles swept Wayne State in closing out the regular season and avoiding last-place in the CHA. Donovan also had two goals last Friday's 3-2 win and the overtime winner in Saturday's 2-1 overtime.
Wayne State, meanwhile, fell to 0-4 all time in the CHA playoffs. The Warriors relied heavily on a handful of freshman, including the conference's top scorer Melissa Boal, and Sam Poyton, who tied Riggs' CHA goal-scoring record with 29 this season. But perhaps the Warrior youth showed over the past two weekends.
The Warriors tallied the game's first goal with 8:40 left in the second period. Lindsay DiPietro grabbed a rebound on a miss by Peyton Patterson and tipped the puck by Purple Eagle goalie Allison Rutledge on the power play to give Wayne State a 1-0.
The Purple Eagles came back to tie the game at 1-1, as senior Erin Toth connected with a shot from the right circle with 4:08 to play in the second period.
Kristy Leng gave the Warriors a 2-1 lead heading into the final period with the team's second power-play goal of the game.
Wayne State took a commanding 3-1 lead with 12:05 remaining when Poyton connected for her 29th goal of the season with just 7:55 remaining in the contest, but back came Niagara.
With a faceoff in the Warrior defensive zone and an extra-man advantage with Rutledge pulled, Mills connected on a pass from Toth to bring the Purple Eagles within one with 2:24 left in the game. Donovan also assisted on the play. Donovan, with her fifth goal in the last four games, tied the game at 3-3 with 1:27 remaining to send the game into overtime.
Smith's game-winning goal came on a pass from Mills, who slid the puck from the left of Wayne State goaltender Tiffany Thompson, into the stick of Smith. She fired high into the back of the net for her ninth lamp-lighter of the season.
Rutledge stopped 37 shots in the win, her fourth straight and eleventh of the season. Thompson fell to 4-5-3 on the year, stopping 14 shots in the loss.
Niagara will now put its four-game winning streak on the line against three-time defending CHA champion Mercyhurst on Sunday at 11:00 a.m. in the league title game, which will be televised live on CSTV.

Site Asking Fred Baron to 'Give the Money Back'
Remember Fred Baron? Of course you do — it wasn't but a few weeks ago that the former plaintiffs attorney took a few knocks when word broke that he'd paid to move both Rielle Hunter, John Edwards's former mistress, and a former Edwards campaign staffer across the country.
The controversy has died down, but hasn't gone away entirely — especially not down in Texas, the epicenter of the flap. The Texas Politics blog, a joint effort of both the Houston Chronicle and the San Antonio Express-News, has a juicy little item about a new Web site aimed at Baron's supporters, called givethemoneyback.com.
According to Texas Politics, the site is the brainchild of Anthony Holm, a Republican consultant and frequent spokesperson for Houston homebuilder, Bob Perry. The site's purported aim: to get John Edwards, Barack Obama, Rielle Hunter and others to give back money allegedly donated to them by Baron.
"Are Fred Baron's values in keeping with the values of Texas? I suggest they are not, and as such they (meaning donations to Democrats, not values) should be returned," Holm reportedly told Texas Politics.
Matt Angle, a Democratic consultant who manages the heavily Baron-financed Texas Democratic Trust and Lone Star Project, told Texas Politics he suspected the site was truly the work of Perry, a well-known Republican donor. "This is a shadow group that is throwing mud up on the wall hoping it will stick."
Holm, however, said he's paying for the Web site himself, with no help from Perry.
The sides are also reportedly squabbling over the donated money came from. Holm's Web site lists $1.8 million in donations from Baron & Budd, but $1.2 million of them were made after Baron sold his interest in the firm.
Holm said the donations are justifiable because there is a contractual arrangement between the law firm and Baron.
"It's difficult to believe he doesn't have any influence on the Baron & Budd PAC," Holm said
Countered Angle: "If they are counting contributions from Baron & Budd, it's false."

Apollo 18 is the kind of movie that will likely divide audiences the same way The Blair Witch Project did years ago; people either love it or hate it. The comparison is appropriate because without Blair Witch, there would likely be no Apollo 18. The concept of a "found footage" movie is ingenious because it allows the audience to buy into the realism that the filmmakers are attempting to set their story in. The drawback to this is that a portion of the audience doesn't want to buy into the alternate reality of the film and will inevitably call bull after they've seen the film.
Unfortunately, the haters would be justified in this case because Apollo 18 never really delivers. And it really is too bad because the concept is a cool one. Officially, Apollo 17 was the final manned operation to the moon. However, a top secret 18th Apollo mission was planned and executed without the public's knowledge. The astronauts were not told what exactly the purpose of the mission was but after arriving, they figure it out pretty quickly. From there, the movie feels all too familiar and you find yourself guessing what will happen next which tends to inspire boredom.
This isn't the fault of the no-name cast who do the best they can. Ultimately, what's most disappointing about Apollo 18 is that it is poorly executed. As you watch the film, you keep waiting for the payoff and while director Gonzalo López-Gallego does a good job of building the suspense, by the time you get to the big moment, you find yourself saying, "Really? That's it?" The Blair Witch Project worked because it employed the tactic of the-scariest-part-is-what-you-don't-see. In Apollo 18, you do get to see what's scary, but it's kind of a let down. There was the potential to do so much more with this film but that potential is never realized.
Ultimately, Apollo 18 suffers from two major flaws: it's too derivative and while the build up is great, the end doesn't satisfy the viewer. I recommend skipping this one iat the Cinemagics in Hooksett and Merrimack and waiting for DVD if you're still inclined to see it.

Members of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union Local 200 picketed at Marine Park in Juneau today (Monday) while the cruise ship Westerdam was anchored in Gastineau Channel.
Union members say cruise lines have repeatedly broken the law by not calling a contract stevedoring company to perform dock work – such as tying up tender boats and loading cargo – when vessels are anchored offshore. Tender boats are used to ferry passengers to and from shore and to load cargo when cruise ships anchor in port rather than tie up to the docks.
Dennis Young is president of ILWU Local 200 Unit 16 in Juneau. He says the cruise lines have been using crew members from the ships – some of whom aren't US citizens – to perform the long shore work. Young says the union is working with US Customs and Border Protection and Alaska's Congressional delegation to end the practice.
"They can continue to stall spit and sputter, but we will be taking this as far as we have to to protect our U.S. long shore workers' rights," Young says.
Alaska Cruise Association President John Binkley says the cruise lines are complying with federal law by using U.S. citizens to perform the work.
"I'm certainly not an attorney, but I don't know of any federal law that requires you to use a specific union to do work," Binkley says.
He says the longshoremen don't have a right to the work under their contract.
"My understanding is that through the collective bargaining process, they've agreed not to do the work on the tenders and the smaller vessels and that was bargained away for other wages or benefits over the years," says Binkley. "And now I think they want to go outside the collective bargaining system to try and take over that work."
Young says that's simply not true.
"They're picking and choosing how to follow the contract when they hire a stevedoring company to perform U.S. long shore work, and they're picking and choosing how they're going to follow immigration act law," Young says.
The longshoremen picketed at Marine Park until the Westerdam left Juneau. They plan a similar protest in Sitka tomorrow (Tuesday) and Ketchikan at some point in the future. They were joined this afternoon by nurses at Bartlett Regional Hospital – who are also represented by the ILWU – as well as members of other unions, including state employee unions and the Inland Boatmen's Union.
The captain of the Westerdam notified passengers of the protest by letter. Most ignored the picketers, who did not try to engage them.

A chilling sequel to my previous post:
Earlier this morning, a man riding a black motorcycle opened fire outside of "Ozar Hatorah" school in Toulouse, France. Israeli teacher Jonathan Sandler, his two children (3, 6) and another girl were killed.
Throughout the day, the French police investigated the shooting, while trying to figure out whether it was a crime on criminal grounds or a crime of hate.
A couple of hours ago, I heard the one thing I hoped not to hear. According to one of the leads, the main suspects are three Neo-Nazis who served in the French army and were recently dismissed. The murder weapon also appeared to be connected to two other murder cases from the past two years, where French- Muslim soldiers were killed.
According to recent reports, in 2008, the French authorities noticed Neo-Nazi undercurrents throughout a certain unit, and started a "clearing operation." A photo of the three suspects saluting the Nazi flag was found, and they were released from service. People who believe in violence, and have hatred running through every inch of their body, will stop at nothing. As I've stated before, Neo-Nazis still exist. They are not many and try to stay under the radar. World leaders choose to handle violence of Anti- Semitic background just like any other violence case. The criminal gets caught, then sent to prison. This is exactly what the world leaders did 70 years ago. Putting Neo-Nazis in jail isn't going to stop the Neo-Nazi party. This is just like taking care of the symptoms, instead of putting an end to the disease.
The French government did something truly remarkable, in my opinion. They tried to cure the disease. They took people who believe in the unbelievable out of the system, before they had the chance to infect it. Even though, it is very important that we all remember this is not the end, but merely the beginning. People who are fed by hate will not stop at red light. The world should not only condemn, but also act. I looked up this story online, and found very few "hits" in English. This is why I'm writing this story here for you, so we can enhance the awareness of such unforgiveable crimes.
Four human beings found their deaths, probably due to the simple fact of their religion. Violence on similar grounds occurs every day. How many times a week do we read or hear of lives being taken because of pure hate? Just because he was gay, just because she was Jewish…We are all dealing with outside threats: from nuclear weapons to global warming. The world isn't exactly Disneyland as it is, so let's do our best to put an end to the inside threats.

What do you do if you've more than 1000 patents, but no one wants your products? Why you create a need. It's the same technique used in boiler-rooms and Wall Street to sell junk products and junk securities and bonds; you create a need. It seems, that's exactly what Monsanto is doing. And if you aren't mad as hell, you should be.
According to organizers/demonstrators in the Miami March Against Monsanto, they've created, acquired, and manipulated:
- Aluminum resistant crops (Primary ingredients in Chemtrails: Aluminum Oxide/Dioxide, Barium, and Strontium) I'll come back to this another time.
- Over 1300 environmentally stress-related crop patents (None of which are organic).
- In 2013 they purchased 'The Climate Corporation'. The Climate Corporation is a San Francisco-based company that examines weather data to provide insurance to farmers who can lock in profits even in the case of drought, excessive rains or other adverse weather conditions. (High UV, Low UV). Can you say, 'Conflict of Interest?'
- This year alone the Honey Bee population has dwindled by > 30% due to pesticides and herbicides inherent within the seeds Monsanto and other agro-businesses develop. (BT Toxin - Bacillus thuringiensis – essentially a biological toxin)
- Monsanto purchased Honey Bee Genetics, a company which produces disease resistant bees. Essentially, this means they control crop production as well as pollination with Monsanto Bees, resistant to Monsanto poison – with probably planned obsolescence built into the life-spans. (Repeat sales guaranteed)
This is an abbreviated list. There's more and the more you know the angrier one gets. I'm assuming you're a bit more concerned now. You should be and you should be shouting at your reps to do something; because of the some 400+ people attending, not one was an elected official. To their credit, candidates were present to listen and participate. But I didn't see one Miami Beach official.
I did have some time to speak with Adrian Wyllie, a Libertarian Candidate for Florida Governor. He told me,' We believe people have the right to know what they're purchasing and feeding their families and insure they have the information they need in order to make decisions about their food.'
Sounds like Common Sense 101 to me; how about you? He went on to say, 'The biggest problem we have is the collusion between our Federal Government and these huge agro-businesses. Right now we have organizations like the FDA and the USDA which were set-up to control and prevent companies from doing harm to the people. But instead, they end up protecting these companies and making it so they have the ability to run 'rough-shot' over the people while the Federal Government covers their tracks while protecting the Central Banking System.'
More to his comments about our problems: 'The problem is a lot of people blame Capitalism. We don't have Capitalism in this country; what we have is a crony-corporatist system. And the reason that it is able to function is because of too much Federal Government power. [snip] We need to take away that power and restore a free market concept in America so that these big companies don't have the kind of power that they do. They'd have to succeed or fail on their own merit and not on the backs of the taxpayer and not with the protection of the Federal Government.'
That's almost text-book high-school civics; as I was taught. And unfortunately, he's right. It doesn't exist in the USA anymore; not with a president who puts a Monsanto executive in charge of almost every cabinet post in Washington.
'You have to take the power away from Federal Government who gives this protection to these corporations.' Mr. Wyllie went on to say, 'Libertarians look at this from another angle and say, "How can we limit government so they can't do this to people?' This is his platform if you care to peruse.
All in all, people were united, no problems with the police and awareness was raised in over four hundred locations around the world.
Personally, I've been eating almost exclusively organic for many years now. I could show you a snap-shot of what I looked like when I wasn't. It's not pretty. I was sickly constantly. I've been healthy and disease-free for many-a-moon these days. And I plan to keep it that way.
One way or the other, Monsanto has got to go, guys and gals. Let's keep the pressure on and get the right reps in government to see to it that it happens before they kill us all.

Appreciating being single is acquired with both age and experience. My mother is 45, divorced and happily single. With no ones permission needed, she does whatever it is that she desires to do every single day. From going out with friends to staying in and curling up in her yoga pants with her favorite shows and multiple pets, she is absolutely thrilled with being single. How does one get to the point in their life where they are no longer broken hearted by being single? Her answer would be, lots of life experience and a little common sense.
Being in a relationship should never be looked at as a right, but as a privilege. By earning the level of self-appreciation and personal health (from emotional to internal) a relationship will become more appreciated than obsessed over. So, how do you become successful in being single? Here's a few tips.
- Break up with bad dating habits. These bad habits are anything from desperately searching bar after bar with someone to take you home and make you feel pretty to dating people you know will never work out. Settling with someone you're not that into will not only do the opposite of what you're looking for but when it ends (and it will end) you'll have set yourself back.
- Break up with bad partners. If you're with someone for the sake of being in a relationship, you're there for the wrong reasons. Fabricating feelings and conjuring up happiness is not only ineffective but it's short lived. Being with someone to fill a void in your life is like watering a dead plant. It's time to reflect on yourself as a "gardener" and throw out the wilted peace lilly. By peace lilly I mean that guy/girl you're seeing.
- Forget about dating! Believe it or not, there are other hobbies out there other than speed dating. I call it speed dating because it's almost unbelievable how quickly these relationships begin and end. Next time you consider entering into one of these relationships, ask yourself if this is really what you want. If you're not sure, it's not worth it.
- Stop trying to rush it. You're never to old to find love, nor are you too busy. It happens when it happens, effortlessly and for the right reasons. The best relationships are formed when you have little to nothing to do with their development. Don't tell your date what you think they want to hear, don't make things up to be more compatible. If you don't like rock climbing and hiking, don't say that you do. Otherwise you could spend the next month and a half with someone passionate about these things. You'll be dragging along behind them wearing a back pack full of self pitty and eventually you'll part ways. This brings you back to square one every time.
- Last but not least, figure yourself out. This isn't about going into isolation and exploring the caverns of your subconscious. This only means, figure out what is important to you. Make a list if you have to and hang it somewhere visible. Do things for yourself and eventually you'll bump into that someone special, doing the same things you enjoy.
Being single isn't a punishment. It's a time for self-improvement and self-love. Give your heart what it needs not what it thinks it wants. It's amazing what will come to those who wait.

Frustrations over it taking forever to paint 1 room
Friday, January 28, 2011
I have been meaning to spend more time on SP reading blogs and posting to threads, however this week has been incredibly busy.
My 15 year old finally was able to keep her room clean long enough for us to want to go in and paint (deal was she had to keep it clean for 3 months). So my hubby and I for the past three days, in between appointments and such painting her room.
Yes I know three days to paint a bedroom **laughing** well add in an autistic 3 � year old to the mix and well everything takes longer than it needs to be. Also the fact that my hubby is in school and well we really have only spent equivalent of 4 hour there actually painting. We have a whopping two and half walls are done.
We have to empty the room, lay everything down then paint for a while. We can�t just leave everything out, because we have to make sure everything is picked up and things are back to normal so my little one does�t get distressed over it all.
This morning for instance, she noticed her sisters garage can was in the living room. So she picked it up and carried it around the living room till I had her put it back where it went in sissy�s room. She then sees the extra paint cans next to her paint can. She became very concerned that
#1 they were there at all and
#2 that her paint can would disappear when we were done. I spent better part of the next 15 min trying to explain that her paint can would still be there (I will explain the whole paint can another day).
I was hoping we would be able to distract our little one today long enough to get her new bed (my older daughters old bed) set up and move the armour into my older daughters room. Well that didn't happen. In fact the only thing I accomplished was getting to the bank today and a shower. My 3yr old was just a whirl wind and everything upset her.
We ended up going out for dinner this evening cause I did not want to cook.
We will not have the chance again to get into my daughters room to paint until Mon. when my youngest is at preschool.

Painting is hard work and takes concentration...so of course it's not going quickly, with all you have to do. It'll feel great once you have finished, however.
I've recently done a lot of interior painting by hand, 3 coats per room (1 primer and 2 paint). Exhausting!

It sounds like it may be taking longer than expected but that you are dealing with life in a very positive way! Taking life as it comes and taking the time to explain to your little daughter what she needs explaining. I admire your patience with your little one and that your painting is not as important as your children!

That is tough to deal with and try to paint,you are doing the best you can and these kind of projects can take more time than expected.I think I can understand you being frustrated about this.I have a hard time with starting things I cannot finish.I guess we have to try to be flexible when these things happen.Being a parent is a very tough job we love and cherish.May all go well for you and you get her room painted soon! Hugs,Diana

Fire destroys home in ChittendenBy Lucia Suarez
Staff Writer | February 06,2013Vyto Starinskas / Staff Photo
CHITTENDEN — Heavy dark smoke covered a single-family home on Holden Road late Wednesday morning as local firefighters worked to douse flames that had spread to the attic.
Several firefighter teams used long prods and saws to make various holes throughout the house to allow smoke to exit the house while they worked to find flames and hot spots throughout.
A firefighter on the scene said the house is a total loss.
Firefighters from five towns – Chittenden, Pittsford, Brandon, Proctor, Rutland Town and West Rutland – responded to the scene around 10 a.m.
Paul Crain, who rents the house with his girlfriend and three kids, said he had just arrived home after dropping his girlfriend off at work when he noticed the smoke.
"I came in the door and whoosh (the smoke)," he said while looking at firefighters dousing the home. "I went through the smoke and grabbed my dog and got out."
Crain said nobody was home when it started, but said the flames were coming from the basement.
As of 1:45 p.m. the cause of the fire is unknown.MORE IN This Just InHiker rescued from AT

Vigoril by Homeocare is an all-natural homeopathic medicine which was formulated using ingredients proven to be safe and effective in the treatment of sexual dysfunction.
Vigoril has been manufactured in accordance with the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States and in compliance with the Food and Drug Administration regulations
Amazingly Vigoril may be taken with any medication without any adverse drug interaction because it is a homeopathic medicine. Vigoril contains no sucrose, coloring or preservatives.
Since the beginning of time and in every society, men have searched for ways of improving or enhancing their sexual vigor. Impotence then was seen as a natural decline in the aging male population. In our modern, polluted society, impotence is a common problem that is affecting half of the male population to some degree.
What Causes Impotence?
Impotence is not a disease. Rather it is a secondary condition caused by a variety of physical and psychological problems such as vascular disease, diabetes, prostrate disorders, grief, stressful relationships or situations.
Substance abuse including tobacco; cigarette smoking and alcohol; prescription drugs, poor diet and lifestyle habits can also hinder sexual response.
The treatments
Traditionally aphrodisiacs, love potions, herbal stimulants and tonics were used with limited success.
Modern medicine offers various treatments such as surgical implants, manual devices, hormone therapy, penile injections or prescription drugs. Most of these treatments are uncomfortable unpractical or painful. Some carry a whole array of dangerous side effects. Needless to say romance is not part of the treatment.
How does Vigoril work?
While it is not clear how homeopathic remedies work, results show that they create positive responses that result in improved state of mind, energy and physical well-being. The carefully chosen remedies in the Vigoril formula are clinically known to:
How long before Vigoril works?
Response will vary with each individual. Some will show improvement within a few days while other will require a longer treatment. Some men will not respond significantly.

What Is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a natural medical system discovered two centuries ago by a German physician and chemist, Samuel Hahnemann. The fundamental principle of homeopathy is based on similia similibus curentur ("like shall be cured by like") and uses active medicinal substances at infinitesimal doses (micro-doses). For example, coffee consumed before bedtime may cause insomnia, yet a homeopathic dose of coffee induces sleep.
For two hundred years, homeopathy has proved to be effective in treating a wide range of illnesses and injuries, whether physical, mental or emotional. Scientific research showed homeopathy's efficacy in numerous clinical studies published in prominent medical journals. Homeopathic medicines provide a safe and affordable alternative to over-the-counter medications whose often dangerous side-effects are evident. Homeopathy's safety and effectiveness makes it especially well suited in the treatment of infants and children.
How Safe Are Homeopathic Medicines?
Because such minute doses of medicinal substances are used, homeopathic medicines are extremely safe, non-toxic and free of adverse side-effects. Homeopathic medicines can be taken in conjunction with conventional medications without the concern of drug interaction. HomeoCare homeopathic medicines are regulated and registered by the FDA.
How Are Homeopathic Medicines Manufactured?
All HomeoCare medicines are manufactured using precise pharmaceutical methods in accordance with the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States, in France's most modern homeopathic LABORATORY. where state-of-the-art equipment, premium quality of raw material combined with rigor and tradition, exceed the high standards of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). The manufacturing process as well as the raw materials used, are under the control and regulations of the French Ministry of Health and the European Agency of Medication (Agence Européenne du Medicament). This results in the highest quality homeopathic medicines in the world. Ongoing research conducted in collaboration with France's INSERM (National Institute of Science and Medical Research), Medical Schools and Hospitals, led HomeoCare's lab team to the formulation of the most effective homeopathic medicines available today. Homeopathic combination remedies are used for the self-treatment of common ailments and are easily identified since they are clearly labeled for the conditions that they treat. Typically, from 2 to 8 homeopathic remedies are combined in order to cover a broader range of symptoms. Combination medicines are very effective and easy to use. They provide a safe and affordable alternative to over-the-counter conventional drugs and are widely available in better Health Food stores and select Pharmacies.
Homeopathy In The World
Homeopathy is widely used throughout the world with growing satisfaction. Over 30 percent of Europeans use homeopathy. In France, over one third of family doctors prescribe homeopathic remedies. There is one homeopathic hospital in Paris and several schools. England boasts several homeopathic hospitals and it is the chosen medical treatment of the Royal family. In Germany, 25% of the physicians have turned to homeopathy. In India there are more than 100 homeopathic medical schools and several government-funded homeopathic hospitals.
In the United States, homeopathy's popularity is steadily growing as more and more people are discovering how this valid and modern medical science is providing safe, effective and gentle treatment at a fraction of the cost of traditional health-care.

Dexter Gordon: Willow Weep for Me
Willow Weep for Me
Dexter Gordon (tenor sax)
Our Man in Paris (Blue Note 46394)
Dexter Gordon (tenor sax), Bud Powell (piano), Pierre Michelot (bass), Kenny Clarke (drums).
Recorded: CBS Studios, Paris, France, May 23, 1963
Rating: 88/100 (learn more)
One of the high points of Dexter Gordon's 15-year self-imposed exile from the U.S. is this Parisian collaboration with fellow American masters Bud Powell and Kenny Clarke, and French bassist Pierre Michelot. "Willow Weep for Me" is especially worth noting due to Gordon's reputation for beautiful ballad playing. This solo presents his ability to improvise introspective, delicate solos while maintaining his forceful, spacious sound. Powell is in fine form here in both his accompaniment and solo roles, this marking one of his last performances before his detrimental return to New York and untimely death shortly thereafter (July 1966).

This is something that's been asked since the introduction of consumer-level processors bearing the �x64� nomenclature. It feels like just yesterday that Intel and AMD fanboys were at odds over the Athlon 64. At that time and even as recently as the introduction of Windows Vista, software and drivers for 64-bit setups were slim-pickings.
Analogous to the shift from 16 to 32-bit computing, the jump to 64-bit has been a slow one. Windows XP x64 never took off, though 64-bit versions of Vista did, thankfully. The ride was a bumpy one, but hardware manufacturers and software developers alike have finally widely adopted the 64-bit architecture - and there�s no turning back now.

HistoryThe Sulmtaler olriginates from the south wset of the Austrian region of Stiermarken in the valleys of Kainach, Lassnitz, Sulm and Saggau (tal = valley). The fat fowl of Stiermarken were famous for their carcase quality. They were maize fed from the area crops From 1865 to 1875 the heavy country fowl were crossed with Cochin, Houdan and Dorkings. these mixtures were recrossed again with local birds from Stiermarken, Mr Armin Arbeiter of Feldhof near Gras developed the modern Sulmtaler at the end of the nineteenth century. Its was bred extensively after the 1914/1918 war and spread into Germany and Holland. In the early 1960s the Germans produced a Sulmtaler bantam, which has now overtaken the large in popularity in Europe. Accepted into the Dutch standard in 1986. The Sulmtaler bantams are an exact replica of their large counterparts. The Sulmtaler bantams in Britain came from four distinct strains, three Dutch and one German, there being different characteristics for each.

Oscars organisers are battling torrential rain as Britain pins its hopes on 26 nominees including Steve McQueen and Judi Dench.
22:18, UK, Sunday 02 March 2014
Organisers of the 86th Academy Awards are praying for a break in the weather to save the iconic Oscars red carpet for a Sunday night wash-out.
Hollywood has seen 72 hours of torrential rain, thunder and lightning and flash flooding, hampering preparations around the Dolby Theatre ahead of the movie industry's biggest night.
Even a plastic roof, erected to protect the walkway which will host the great and the good of Hollywood, started to spring leaks under the weight of the deluge.
The rain would normally be welcomed in a state suffering its worst drought on record and the British-style weather might prove an omen for the more than 20 Oscars nominees from the UK.
The epic 12 Years A Slave is among the favourites to be named Best Picture with its British director Steve McQueen and star Chiwitel Ejiofor up for Oscars as well.
McQueen told Sky News: "You can win and you can lose so therefore let us appreciate it for what it actually is: a celebration of film. So I'm hoping to take a back seat."
But 12 Years faces tough competition from the "made in Britain, set in space" Gravity and the 1970s true crime caper American Hustle.
Hustle's Christian Bale is also up for Best Actor while Dame Judi Dench's performance as Philomena Lee has put her in the Best Actress Category.
Sally Hawkins has been nominated for the first time as Best Supporting Actress for her role in Woody Allen's Blue Jasmine.
The movie's star Cate Blanchett is favourite to be named Best Actress after sweeping the board at awards show leading up to the Oscars.
Similarly Matthew McConaughey is odds-on favourite to pick up the Best Actor prize for his striking performance in another true story, the Dallas Buyers Club. His co-star Jared Leto could make it a double as Best Supporting Actor.
So where could the big surprises come from?
Steven Gaydos, the executive editor of movie industry bible Variety, told Sky News: "By the time the Oscars happen there are almost no surprises left. But there's always one.
"I'm studying it and asking people and we're perplexed. Matthew McConaughey, for instance, is perceived as the front runner but there's Leonard Di Caprio there so maybe the upset is there."
British talent fills a number of the technical categories, particularly those who worked on Gravity at Pinewood and Shepperton studios under British-based director Alfonso Cuaron.
This year's event is expected to be shown in more than 200 countries with 40 million people expected to watch in the US alone.
:: Watch Sky News live on television, on Sky channel 501, Virgin Media channel 602, Freeview channel 82 and Freesat channel 202.
:: You can also watch the Oscars live on Sunday, March 2 on Sky Movies from 11.30pm.

Shoppes on Six plan doesn't include a movie theater upgrade
The Shoppes on Six development originally included plans to replace the current theater with a state of the art facility, but those plans are no longer part of the overall plans.
ELKHART — Plans to incorporate a revamped adjacent movie theater as part of the Shoppes on Six development in Elkhart is not happening, according to a spokesman for Thompson Thrift, the developer.
While replacing the theater with a state of the art facility was touted during the initial announcement in 2012 by the Indianapolis-based company, that's not happening, said Chris Hake, director of retail development.
The company provided an update Tuesday night before a city council committee that was reviewing a request for financial support from the city.
The theater is located just south of most of the development. Hake did not go into any details in what happened to the idea.
A person for Carmike Encore Park 14, said in a brief phone interview Wednesday that the company did not have any formal involvement in the past and would not have any further comment.
Overall, though, Hake gave an upbeat outlook about the development and said they remain hopeful that the owners of the theater will be encouraged to renovate their facility as the retail project comes to fruition,
Shoppes on Six is an 18-acre development southwest of C.R. 6 and Cassopolis Street.
Other details mentioned Tuesday:
■ Construction on the main anchor building should be well under way by the end of the year and stores should open by July 2015. Those anchors are Ross Dress for Less, PetSmart and Shoe Carnival.
■ Space remains available for a restaurant along C.R. 6.
■ Council member Mary Olson said she continues to hear questions about other big name restaurants and stores such as Panera Bread. Hake said Panera is viewed as an "extremely desirable tenant for any project" and they remain open to the idea that something like a Panera will be attracted to the development once construction reaches a "critical mass."
■ A spokesman said they will put an emphasis on using local contractors.
Much of the meeting involved financing.
The city has tentatively agreed to invest $3 million into the development. Half of that was already approved by the city redevelopment commission and involved a loan from the city's Major Moves Fund that will be paid back with tax increment finance revenues.
The second portion of money would be used to construct a north-south road, improvements to C.R. 6, a new traffic signal, street lights, sidewalks, infrastructure, landscaping and some irrigation.
The plan is that Thompson Thrift will purchase two bonds and those will be paid back with TIF dollars. That plan was being reviewed by council's finance committee and still needs final approval by city council.
Barkley Garrett, director of economic development, said Wednesday that Thompson officials had agreed to provide a list to council of details on how the entire $3 million will be used.
The finance committee sent the plan on to council with no recommendation.
Councilmen David Henke and Ron Troyer sought the no recommendation motion while Brent Curry opposed it.
Henke said he thought the investment was too much and compared it to a tax abatement.
The total construction project for the development is estimated to be around $15 million. That means the city's investment represents roughly 20 percent of the overall cost.
Despite his objections, he predicted it would win final approval by council.
The council granted tentative approval to the $3 million development agreement early last year.

One of the young Hollywood stars I've certainly enjoyed watching is Christian Bale. I think he did a fantastic job as the incredibly complicated character, Batman. Well this past weekend he's been given the Oscar for his role in The Fighter. Well deserved. Read on for a review of the movie compliments Skewed & Reviewed Magazine and perhaps you can enjoy watching The Fighter in your room at an Accent Inn.
The Fighter
Based on a true story, The Fighter tells the tale of two brother boxers. Retired and addicted to drugs, Dicky Eklund (Christian Bale) lives life as the town hero while dreaming of a comeback career. Meanwhile his talented younger brother Micky Ward (Mark Wahlberg) is reaching his fighting apex. That is, if he can choose to move past family ties that are holding him from success.
The surprising sibling chemistry of actors Bale and Wahlberg is the successful binding force in the The Fighter. The skill of these two brings relevance to the film for an audience that might otherwise step past a sports story by giving it heart. (more…)

College Hockey:Elliott, Kessel Named CSTV/HCA National Players Of Month
Wisconsin goaltender Brian Elliott, who backstopped the No. 1 Badgers to an unbeaten month with a 7-0-1 record while surrendering a total of only 11 goals, was named the CSTV/Hockey Commissioners' Association national Division I Player of the Month for November on Friday.
A 6-foot-3, 187-pound junior from Newmarket, Ont., Elliott started all eight games for Wisconsin last month, with a 1.36 goals against average and a .944 save percentage in 484:20 of playing time. He was named WCHA Defensive Player of the Week three times during the month, and only six of the 11 goals he allowed were scored at even strength.
He led the Badgers, who currently sport the nation's longest unbeaten streak at 12 games (10-0-2), to a 4-2, 4-1 road sweep at then No. 5-ranked North Dakota on Nov. 4-5; to a 2-2 tie and 3-0 win at home against then No. 1-ranked Colorado College on Nov. 11-12; to 2-1 and 3-2 victories over visiting Minnesota State on Nov. 19-20; and then to a 3-1 win at then No. 18-ranked Michigan State on Nov. 25 and a 3-2 victory at then No. 1-ranked Michigan on Nov. 26.
A ninth-round NHL draft choice of the Ottawa Senators in 2003, Elliott has played every minute in goal for Wisconsin (11-1-2) this season and had not allowed more than two goals in any of UW's 14 games entering this weekend. In one stretch during November, he went 115:07 without allowing a goal, including five straight periods against Colorado College.
Meanwhile, Minnesota center Phil Kessel has been named the CSTV/HCA Division I Rookie of the Month. In eight games during November, he led the No. 4 Golden Gophers (7-3-4) to a 4-1-3 record while topping them in scoring with six goals, 10 assists and 16 points, in power-play goals with five, and in shots on goal with 44. He also scored a game-winning goal and posted a +4 plus-minus rating.
A 6-foot-0, 190-pound freshman from Madison, Wis., Kessel is projected to be one of the top picks in next year's NHL Entry Draft. He was twice named WCHA Rookie of the Week during November and currently leads all rookies in the nation in both scoring with 8-13-21 and points-per game average at 1.50.
Kessel, who was named the preseason WCHA Rookie of the Year by the league's 10 head coaches, is a veteran of the U.S. National Under-18 Team in Ann Arbor, Mich.

There are numerous publications, both in print and online, on Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit. This section includes information on magazines, newspapers, websites and books that have been created about the destination.
For magazines, the most popular (and published by the parent company of this site, the Vallarta Lifestyles Publishing Group (VLPG)), in the region is Vallarta Lifestyles, which has been in print since 1989. Ten years of issues are available online to read, in an easy-to-use, online eReader. You can browse through pages similar to reading the real physical publication. VLPG also publishes an annual boating guide called Vallarta Nautica, and these are available online to view as well. And for your convenience, we are grouping an increasing number of articles into Special Publications.
Popular weekly papers (which also have an online presence) are Vallarta Today, PV Mirror, Ambito and the Vallarta Tribune, which are freebies and can be found most commonly at cafes throughout the region. For real estate, there is the monthly Vallarta Real Estate Guide (also by VLPG). In English the two most popular newspapers are the Vallarta Today and the Vallarta Tribune.
And if you are looking for a good map, ask for the Vallarta Lifestyles Map & Mini-Guide. Great maps with walking and driving tours included, as well as a great restaurant directory.
Online there is, of course, this website, which we believe has more information than any site you'll find on Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit. As mentioned the local newspapers also have information websites with links provided above. However, you may also want to check out the official websites - for Puerto Vallarta: visitpuertovallarta.com, for Riviera Nayarit: rivieranayarit.com. For information about certain communities within Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit, check out our Community Page section, where we include links to the sites that we feel provide the best information. For real estate information, check out MLSVallarta.com or VallartaRealEstateGuide.com.
There have been two large-size, pictorial books written about Puerto Vallarta, but unfortunately both are now out of print. There are, however, a proliferation of books by local writers, some about the destination, others not, some of which we have included below.

Feb. 3, 2011
Center Valley, Pa. – Wednesday, Feb. 2 marked the 25th celebration of National Girls and Women in Sports Day (NGWSD), and the Patriot League is once again proud to mark the occasion with its annual Women in Sports magazine. In addition, six League institutions will be hosting activities linked to their own celebrations of NGWSD in conjunction with women's basketball games, while two schools held theirs in January.
This year's NGWSD theme is "Play, Believe, Achieve." This year, in light of it being the Patriot League's 20th Anniversary season, the League's Women in Sports magazine features five former and two current two-sport student-athletes whose efforts to balance the rigors of their academic lives with the demands of Division I athletics exemplify this year's NGWSD theme.
American and Army will host their NGWSD events on Saturday. At Bender Arena in Washington, D.C., the Eagles will host Lehigh for a 2 p.m. tip off. Following the game, each of American's seven varsity women's teams will lead skills clinics and sign autographs for kids of all ages in attendance on the floor of Bender Arena. American will also host its WBCA Pink Zone and Pack the House Challenge.
Army will celebrate National Girls and Women in Sports Day along with holding its WBCA Pink Zone. Clinics with the women's basketball, women's soccer, volleyball and softball teams are all planned for that morning, followed by a pizza party from 12-1 p.m.
Lehigh returns home to host Navy Wednesday at Stabler Arena, and the Mountain Hawks will host their NGWSD events in conjunction with the contest against the Midshipmen. Both Bucknell and Colgate will hold their celebrations on Saturday, Feb. 12, when the teams host Holy Cross and American, respectively. Holy Cross will hold its NGWSD celebration Feb. 19 when it hosts American.
Lafayette hosts its NGWSD activities Jan. 8 in conjunction with the Leopards' game against Holy Cross, while Navy held its one week later on Jan. 15 against Lafayette. The Mids also hosted their Pink Zone event that night.
At all of the upcoming events, schools will be handing out t-shirts and copies of the Patriot League's Women in Sports magazine.

Los Angeles' Skid Row area, originally agricultural until the 1870s when railroads first entered Los Angeles, has maintained a transient nature through the years. The population has shifted through influxes of short-term workers and migrants fleeing economic hardship during the Great Depression, military personnel during World War II and the Vietnam conflict, and low-skilled workers with limited transportation options who need to remain close to the city's core, according to the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. Associated Press photographer Jae C. Hong spent months documenting the area and it's homeless population. In the last week of January 2013, The Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority counted 1,020 homeless people on the street and 2,443 in an emergency shelter or in transitional housing.
