Greece's conservative-led government on Monday ordered maritime workers to end a strike that has disrupted ferry services to the country's myriad islands for nearly a week.
"The government made every possible effort to satisfy the maritime workers' demands," Merchant Marine Minister Costis Moussouroulis told reporters.
"Unfortunately, petty politics have left no room for dialogue," Moussouroulis said.
As a result, the government would issue requisition orders to force sailors back to work from 0400 GMT on Wednesday, the minister said.
The Panhellenic Seamen's Union (PNO) had earlier decided to extend the six-day mobilisation for another 48 hours.
"We have decided to continue with another 48-hour strike for every category of vessel," union had said in a statement.
And a senior unionist said seamen would resist the requisition order.
"We will tear up this order...we will take all necessary measures to safeguard our struggle," Antonis Dalakogiorgos told Real FM radio.
The PNO is protesting against a labour reform that allows ferry owners to limit the number of crew members.
The union claims that unemployment in the sector has hit more than 7,000 maritime workers, out of a total of 15,000 active workers.
The merchant marine ministry counters that there are 4,200 unemployed and 17,000 active maritime workers.
As the coalition government tries to implement a harsh austerity programme demanded by international creditors in return for vital rescue loans, it has had to deal with waves of strikes.
Riot police were sent in January to break a strike by Athens metro staff that had paralysed the network for nine days.
Farmers around the country have now parked their tractors near major motorways since last week, without disrupting traffic so far.
Over the past two weeks, mass transit workers and hospital doctors have also intermittently staged work actions.
Greece's two main unions, the public sector ADEDY and the private sector GSEE, have called a general strike for February 20.
Auditors from the troika of Greece's creditors -- the European Union, International Monetary Fund and European Central Bank -- are due in Athens at the end of the month to assess the reforms.

Focus | Request for Proposals | Roundtables | Biennial Archive
Building on its long tradition of leading thematic discussions and exhibitions related to issues in the arts from a campus-wide perspective, the Cornell Council for the Arts (CCA) hosted its first ever Biennial in 2014 — a two-year platform for engaging the most urgent questions that artists face within culture and life in the 21st century. While it has brought critical issues in the arts to the Cornell community in many exhibition formats since its start in 1964, the CCA has established a Biennial to serve as its primary means of bringing faculty and students together around an idea that impacts the visual and performing arts both within and outside of the university.
While most art Biennials are showcases for a vast number of artists and events, the CCA Biennial is intended to take a deep rather than wide view of an idea that can be best addressed and articulated within a research university. Unique among its peer institutions in acknowledging the importance of the arts in the intellectual and cultural aims of a leading university, Cornell offers an environment particularly prepared for an engagement with contemporary art that is both new and provocative.
Through its two-year timeline, that includes art commissions, faculty project grants, co-sponsored visiting lectures, related curricula and semester-long, campus-wide exhibition, the CCA Biennial invites the Cornell community to experience art in uncommon spaces and contexts, opening up the ways in which it is known by disciplines and audiences unaware of the common creative ground shared by the arts, humanities, and science.
It is the aim of the CCA to raise the visibility of the arts at Cornell by bringing artists working within the university together with artists working internationally into direct contact and to establish a means by which their contact has significant, tangible outcome that has lasting impact on students, faculty and staff.
The 2016 CCA Biennial focus is on the cultural production of empathy. The upcoming biennial will address the ways in which feeling is form and explore how the objects, buildings, clothing, machines, languages, and images we construct are shaped by our intentional or implicit emotional, interdependent relationship to others.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hacienda Abascal Quintanilla de Arriba
Wonderful service, beautiful small hotel, relaxing environment
We took advantage of the shoulder season at Tremblant and we were rewarded. Tremblant was quiet and we enjoyed being some of the very few cycling and hiking. Chateau Beauvallon is a real gem. The rooms are lovely, warm and thoughfully done. The facilities are not large but more than adequate and tastefully done. We enjoyed a number of visits to the outdoor hot tub. The staff were excellent as they were friendly and helpful. The food was quite good (definitely above the usual hotel blandness) and I felt it was good value. They were very accomodating to personal requests. If you are looking for an intimate, cozy environment with more personal attention than a large hotel (better service, better environment and less people) but not to personal as to be in a B&B (i.e. we like a lot of privacy), I definitely recommend it. The environment is very "nice" yet extremely comfortable and relaxing. We will certainly return.
The Real Luxury Lodge
What a Fantastic Hotel!
I was simply delighted by the service ( Valet service -was great!), the nice hottub and the region is fantastic!
What was also great with this hotel is that it is not right on the resort but just minutes from it so you have the quiet side close to the village.
There is also an excellent restaurant where we got to eat amazing food from a french chef and got an incomparable service from Christine a young,ambitious young lady that was also able to give us advise about the region!
The only thing missing... 24H room service !
I certainly recommend this hotel that is no doubt going to become a great small luxury hotel!
Want to go back today!
Just returned from 4 nights at Chateau Beauvallon and I want to go back! My husband, myself and our 2 kids stayed over the March break in a one bedroom suite. We had more than enough room and enjoyed every minute of if. There were lots of kids running around unattended but that is hardly the hotels fault. The hotel is beautiful, the staff attentive and very courteous and the shuttles to and from the hill, just icing on the cake. I would definately stay there again and am currently planning a return trip. One thing to keep in mind if you plan on cooking some of your meals....no frying pan. Other than that, everything you need is at your finger tips.
Brilliant new Hotel
My wife and I stayed here from 2nd to 7th March. We were recommended to the hotel and also read Tripadvisor reviews. I can strongly recommend this new hotel. The staff are great; the suite was brilliant (2 bathrooms, although our underfloor heating was not working or was not there).
We were visiting our son who was staying at SkileGap outside the village. The courtesy drivers could not have been better. Picked us up from the skiing, took us there, took our son back to his residence. The breakfasts were good and the evening meals were good, apart from one pasta which could have been better.
If you don't want to be in the centre of the village and don't want to ski in and out of a hotel this is the hotel for you. If we go back I would stay again.
The Perfect Balance: great for adults AND kids
My family and I stayed at Chateau Beauvallon for long 4-day weekend. Our flight was delayed getting to Tremblant so we arrived at the hotel very late, with 2 very tired kids (ages 6 aqnd 8). Knowing that we arrived late, there was a lovely plate of cheese and bread waiting in our room along with 2 huge chocolate chip cookies for the kids. This set the tone for the entire weekend of unbelievable service, spacious and comfortable accomodations, and delicious food and wine. There is so much to do in Tremblant and so much to do at the hotel. My kids loved swimming in the pool and hot tub. They loved the big hot chocolates they could drink in front of the fireplace. My wife and I loved the kid's movie Chateau Beauvallon showed on Saturday night (complete with popcorn machine) so we could dine alone. We were totally comfortable letting the kids watch the movie with other kids their age. Just the two of us had a wonderful dinner and bottle of wine...no kids!! Breakfasts are amazing. The hotel is very safe for kids and the staff is very accomodating to kids running around. This is the only hotel I've been where I let my kids take the key card and go to the room by themselves. An unforgettable experience. We can't wait to return.
Awesome, awesome, awesome
I stayed at Chateau Beauvallon over the Holidays. The food was excellent and the staff was incredibly friendly. My favorite part however, was the atmosphere. As you enter the hotel, you immediately feel like you are part of a beautiful ski lodge, with a roaring fireplace and a friendly neighborhood pub right off the lobby. Kudos to the proprietors for melding traditional warmth and charm with modern amenities (hot tub, pool, gym, etc.). I have recommended it to my friends and and plan to return soon.
Fantastic hotel ! 5 Stars all the way!
We stayed at the Chateau Beauvallon 24-26 Feb 2006, and had a fantastic time! The service was absolutely excellent from the moment we arrived. Upon arrival you are greeted by the valet/baggage helpers who are exceptionally helpful and don't wait for tips. The rooms have 2 flat screen televisions and a fireplace, furnished with exclusive furniture. The kitchen is most useful, so bring some food to cook up. Furthermore, everything is NEW, there is no weird smells or anything of the sort, smells like a new home. There are two bathrooms, which offer heated floors, clearly no cold feet when it comes to this resort. The hot tub is fantastic, located amongst a beautiful setting, isolated from the lights and sounds of the village, the only lights you will see are those of the stars above. The proximity of the hotel to the village is close, about a 2 minute drive, and don't worry, you will not have to do any driving while here, the hotel offers a FREE shuttle to and from the village, all you have to do is call. Over all we had an excellent getaway! partied hard in the village, and relaxed to the max at the hotel. Chateau Beauvallon, is where I'm staying from now on, and recommend it to all!
Definitely on the right track
Currently writing this from the hotel. They have free high wireless. We are in a two bedroom suite. Very nice and spacious with nice fireplace! The place is overall very clean. It offers shuttle service to the mountain on a regular basis.
The food is great most of the time. The breakfast buffet could be better. The waitstaff could be better trained. For instance a waitress should not be chewing gum as she is taking your order...but overall good service.
General overall attitude of staff is extremely pleasant and helpful. Definitely go out of their way to make you comfortable.
Would definitely recommed this new property.
Very pleased...great hotel
I agree entirely with the first review. My group of six stayed here from December 29, 2005 to January 1, 2006. We had a wonderful time. The hotel staff is simply amazing--very helpful and friendly. This hotel is less than a five minute drive to the Tremblant village. Shuttles from the hotel will drop you off wherever you want. We even got a ride to the Pedestrian Village on New Year's Eve at 11:30pm! The hotel suite itself is beautiful. We stayed in a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom suite with 1 murphy bed, 1 sofa bed, kitchenette, fireplace and outdoor balcony facing poolside. There is a laundry room on each floor, although we did not use it. I found it a little hard to cook for a group of 6 every night in the kitchenette. We requested another pot since you are provided with only one, which would have made cooking pasta a little longer than usual. The kitchenette has a two burner stove and granite countertops with a small fridge, sink and small dishwasher. It's good for small meals though. There is no toaster in the suites, which would have come in handy. Other than that, I would say that everything was perfect. There are LCD TV's in every room (true that the TV's in the bedrooms kind of face down), however, if you want to play Xbox or watch DVD's (you can rent a DVD player from front desk free of charge) you can only do so in the bedrooms, as the A/V plugs are not accessible from the big screen LCD in the main family room. I think we got a really good deal for the period of our stay (New Year's). We paid $499 a night plus taxes which is peanuts in comparison to the Sommet des Neiges (also a lovely hotel) around Christmas/New Year's time (where we've stayed in 2003 and 2004). We were also able to stay for less than the 5 night minimum required at the Pedestrian Village hotels around this time. All in all, we had a great experience. Chateau Beauvallon is a lovely, medium-sized hotel with wonderful staff. We will definitely be coming back to visit and stay here in the near future!
Chateau beauvallon..very nice
My family and I are staying at the Chateau Beauvallon as I write this review on my daughter's laptop. Free internet, one point in the Beauvallon's favor. It is December 28th and our second night of a two night getaway. The hotel is a 70 room all suite complex that has only been open for a few weeks. And it shows. Room service missed us today, the waiter dropped an entr�e and our LCD TV is angled stubbornly toward the floor in the bedroom. These are quibles really, the room is great, well designed with a galley kitchen (tiny, but enough to prepare light meals...who cooks a roast on vacation anyway?), terrific king bed in the alcove bedroom, good Murphy bed and a sofa bed to boot (not so good, but is there such thing as a good sofa bed anyway?) Two nice bathrooms, subway tile chic without the graffiti, well equiped. So the room is great, (this is the smallest room I'm in...still big enough for 2 adults and two large teens, for a couple of days anyway.) The rest of the hotel is modestly upscale. Indoor pool is small, excercise room small, restaurant small, but all well executed. Outdoor hot tub for the brave. Location is removed from the hubbub of the ski hill, but still only a five minute drive away. Shuttle service offered. Staff friendly and enthusiastic, the early glitches wil no doubt be solved with time. The newest kid on the block: pretty, pretty good.

... empty that morning what they've done, we got the answer "Oh, I just went for a walk." Therefore, any similar behaviour and activity was from that point onwards known as "going for a walk". Because, seriously? No better excuse than that?! :D
Instead of hiking we drove to the ski village of Mont Tremblant (but didn't see a mountain because of all the fog). We walked around there for a bit and had a short hike to some waterfalls in that area.

"Enkhuizen and the Zuiderzee museum" Top 5 Page for this destination Enkhuizen by sim1
Enkhuizen Travel Guide: 150 reviews and 481 photos
The Zuiderzee museum is an open air museum which shows you life around 1900 in the fishing villages at the Zuiderzee. And it actually felt if I was there during that time. It was like I could see these three fisherman sitting in the harbour chatting with each other, telling stories to each other about their fishing expeditions. I could smell the pipe that the fishingman in the middle is smoking, but also feel the fresh seabreeze, the sound of the seagulls and the smell of fresh fish that was just brought in.
This was the feeling I got at the Zuiderzee museum, but it also felt like this when I walked through Enkhuizen. This is a very old village, with a lively harbour. Everyone was relaxing and having a good time. There were a lot of boats going in and out of the harbour. The following day there was going to be a clipper race on the lake, so it must have been extra busy with all the boats when I was there.
It was great just to hang over the railing, feel the sunshine on my face and watch all these boats pass by. Yes, it was a gorgeous day. It was in the beginning of October, usually we don't have very good weather at this time of the year. But this weekend was an exception. The weather was gorgeous, 20 degrees Celcius and quite a lot of sunshine. The leaves on the trees were turning in all the beautiful fall colours. It was the best autumn weather that I can remember. And now a few days later, while I write this, the weather is still gorgeous. When I look outside and see the sunshine, I picture myself again on one of the terraces in Enkhuizen enjoying my drink and stroll afterwards to one of the fish shops to eat some delicious fresh fish.

Heey Simone,... This is a great VY Enkhuizen Page... wonderful done. Even my interests concern the Javanese South-Sea Goddess *lol* Thanks, greetzzz RoyJava
Simone, what a delightful place to visit. I loved the part about the school and the 1st 3 words that children learn! This looks like a quality museum where one could learn so much about the customs, etc. Great photos to accompany this wonderful text.
what a fascinating museum and lovingly illustrated as usual Simone - so glad this was just featured on the front page :-))
Enkhuizen looks to be a charming spot to spend a few days relaxing.
Hi Simone was in the Netherlands a few weeks ago, unfortunately didn't get to travel north of Amsterdam. But lovely country none the less in the east and south. Amsterdam was indeed worth seeing, especially the museums and the Artis Zoo.

Forty (40) Year Old Whisky is really a rare treat indeed. There are very few casks which survive the maturation process with enough vivacity left in them to make truly great whisky, and you can rest assured that whiskies that reach 40 years old will be really incredibly complex, often having lost over 50% of the cask's contents to evaporation.
40 year old whisky is very often bestowed as a 40th Birthday present as a mark of tremendous respect for the recipient. Other occasions on which 40 year old whisky can be given include Fathers Day, and Christmas Presents.
Forty year old whisky is ultra-rare, normally very complex, and incredibly mellow and supple.
1971 was a memorable year for many people - here are some of the most memorable moments:
In May of 1971, South Park lovers everywhere would have raised a glass for the birth of Matt Stone, the aforementioned cartoon's co-creator.
Later that year, the illustrious actor Mark Wahlberg was born, we've sure he enjoys a good glass of bourbon or Scotch. PCWorld.ca listed Mark Wahlberg's computer game "Marky Mark: Make My Video" as the 8th Worst Video Game of All Time (this award also reminds us of the overindulgent use of the phrase "of all time" when included in the title of an award. Since computer games have only been around for a few decades, there is no need for this melodramatic expression. It's a bit like having an award for "Best 21st Century Event of All Time" or "Best Tom Cruise Film of All Time" (the second award would obviously go to the classic "Top Gun"). Should it have been an award for something that had been around since documented history, such as "Best Lizard", "Best Numeric System", or "Best Calendar", the phrase "of all time" might fit. That is all.).

NHS boss Nicholson to retire
NHS boss Sir David Nicholson plans to retire in March next year, NHS England said today.
NHS boss Sir David Nicholson plans to retire in March next year, NHS England said today.
Commenting on the announcement by NHS boss Sir David Nicholson that he will retire next year, Chief executive of the NHS Confederation Mike Farrar said:
"Despite the difficulties of recent months, today's announcement provides an opportunity to focus on Sir David's contribution to the NHS over the past three decades, the significant achievements over the lifetime of his career and during his time as the chief executive of the NHS.
"Sir David came into office as NHS chief executive in 2006 and immediately led a major recovery from the deficit that the health service faced at that time.
"Over subsequent years he led the delivery of a remarkable reduction in waiting times for urgent and elective care, with access to treatment improving faster than almost any comparable health system.
"There have been significant improvements in patient outcomes and a huge reduction in healthcare acquired infections. In recent years, he presided over the largest structural reform in the history of the NHS."

Training for 'El Tri'
As the New Year begins, the U.S. soccer team's schedule shows that Bob Bradley's side will play a minimum of 17 games in 2009. Of course, that number will likely rise, depending on the progress made in both the Gold and Confederations Cups.
Thus, with many of his elite players on duty in Europe with their clubs, Bradley will use the upcoming training camp to, once again, run the rule over a number of men who are likely to push hard for playing time alongside their more established countrymen in the coming 12 months.
What makes this year's California camp even more important is the close proximity of arguably the most important game of the year. After the now annual friendly against Sweden on Jan. 24 at the Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., the U.S. plays Mexico in Columbus, Ohio, on Feb. 11 in a game that, despite its falling so early in the final round of World Cup qualifying, will go a long way to deciding which country tops the final standings.
Of the 25 players who will report to the HDC on Sunday, there are, in my opinion, more than a handful who should be pushing hard for a place on the game-day roster against Mexico. Defensively, Chad Marshall's form last year makes him an obvious choice while Jonathan Bornstein should seek to remind Bradley of the form that saw him given the first look at left back when the coach took charge a couple of years ago.
Sacha Kljestan started the last four qualifiers of the previous round but must continue to develop his decision-making in game situations. Ricardo Clark is another midfielder who has a chance while Robbie Rogers is an intriguing prospect -- especially given DaMarcus Beasley's situation at Rangers, which currently sees him out of favor and, if recent reports are to be believed, facing an Ibrox exit in January.
Up front, Kenny Cooper gets another chance to impress, two years after his first call-up to the national team squad. The tall striker may end camp with a different team than that with which he began, as might Charlie Davies, whose form at Hammarby in the Swedish league made him arguably the most outstanding American striker in 2008.
Well played, young man
I'm not saying that being interviewed by me made the difference but hasn't Clint Dempsey been in good form recently?! All joking aside, "Deuce" has capitalized on the opportunity to start in Roy Hodgson's side, which is unbeaten in its last nine Premier League games.
Though much of the credit for that run has gone to the Cottagers' back line, there is no doubt that Dempsey's contribution has been another critical factor. Never was that more the case than against Chelsea last weekend, when an all-action display made him his side's outstanding player.
More importantly in the context of the final result, Dempsey recorded his first multi-goal game in Fulham colors, becoming the first player to score twice in the same league game versus the blues for over a year. His goals were very different but equally impressive, the first requiring quick thinking from close range and his second a header that could rank as the best of his 11 career EPL strikes.
When we spoke at the start of December, I asked Dempsey whether he was a 'shirt-swapper' to which he replied that, until he proved himself in England, he would not be:"When I do swap, I want it to be more of a mutual thing out of respect for the two players, rather than just swapping shirts with somebody who doesn't really care that they are getting your jersey."
If he maintains his current form, the time is surely approaching when opposing players seek out the "Dempsey 23" jersey when they face Fulham.
A thing that made me go hmmm ...I am not a great fan of New Year resolutions, mainly because my willpower is such that they are usually broken by the end of January. Similarly, predictions have rarely been my strong suit either but, in the spirit of the season, here are some early prognostications for the year ahead, from a soccer point of view.
Chicago will win MLS Cup after beating Los Angeles in the final.
The U.S. will qualify for the World Cup, along with Mexico and Trinidad and Tobago.
Bob Bradley's side will not win the Gold Cup but will reach the semifinals of the Confederations Cup.

Colorized photo from 1908
Original title: Merrimack St, looking west
Location: Lowell, MA, 19 Merrimack St

A dam good company, and a mighty fine street. You never have enough signs, it was quite commercial in the past. These buildings were designed to last the test of time, and they have proven that, as many of them are still standing even today. That building on the left, is almost done with its construction, the windows were just put in.

You can tell its a well to do neighborhood, the children are all wearing shoes. In the past the less wealthy, children were barefoot where ever they went.

Bodie is a ghost town in the Bodie Hills east of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in Mono County, California.
Bodie began as a mining camp of little note following the discovery of gold in 1859 by a group of prospectors, including W.S. Bodey Bodey perished in a blizzard the following November while making a supply trip to Monoville (near present day Mono City, CA), never getting to see the rise of the town that was named after him. According to area pioneer, Judge J.G. McClinton, the district's name was changed from "Bodey," "Body," and a few other phonetic variations, to "Bodie," after a painter in the nearby boomtown of Aurora lettered a sign "Bodie Stables". Gold discovered at Bodie coincided with the discovery of silver at nearby Aurora, Nevada, and the distant Comstock Lode beneath Virginia City, Nevada. But while these two towns boomed, interest in Bodie remained lackluster. By 1868 only two companies had built stamp mills at Bodie, and both had failed.
In 1876, the Standard Company discovered a profitable deposit of gold-bearing ore, which transformed Bodie from an isolated mining camp comprising a few prospectors and company employees to a Wild West boomtown. Rich discoveries in the adjacent Bodie Mine during 1878 attracted even more hopeful people. By 1879, Bodie had a population of approximately 5000-7000 people and around 2,000 buildings. One idea maintains that in 1880, Bodie was California's second or third largest city, but the U.S. Census of that year disproves the popular tale. Over the years, Bodie's mines produced gold valued at nearly $34 million.
Bodie boomed from late 1877 through mid-to late-1880. California and Nevada newspapers predicted Bodie would become the next Comstock Lode. Men from both states were lured to Bodie by the prospect of another bonanza.
As a bustling gold mining center, Bodie had the amenities of larger towns, including two banks, four volunteer fire companies, a brass band, a railroad, miner's and mechanic's unions, several daily newspapers, and a jail. At its peak 65 saloons lined Main Street, which was a mile long. Murders, shootouts, barroom brawls, and stagecoach holdups were regular occurrences.
The first signs of decline appeared in 1880 and became obvious towards the end of the year. Promising mining booms in Butte, Montana; Tombstone, Arizona; and Utah lured men away from Bodie. The get-rich quick, single miners who originally came to the town in the 1870s moved on to these other booms, which eventually turned Bodie into a family-oriented community. Despite the population decline, the mines were flourishing, and in 1881 Bodie's ore production was recorded at a high of $3.1 million. By 1910, the population was recorded at 698 people, which were predominantly families that decided to stay in Bodie instead of moving on to other prosperous strikes. The last mine closed in 1942, due to War Production Board order L-208, shutting down all gold mines in the United States. Mining never resumed.

Directly across from the old Wayside Inn is a lovely old barn. I couldn't help myself, I had to peek inside the barn, and this is what I found!! What a treasure!! It appears to be the "old surrey with the fringe on top"!! Didn't spot the horses, but there was certainly evidence they had been there!! LOL!!

by Mark Van Scyoc

Horse and buggy riding through the snow on a cold wintery morning near the town of Bird In Hand, PA.

The legend of the naming of Bird-in-Hand concerns the time when the Old Philadelphia Pike was surveyed between Lancaster and Philadelphia. According to legend two road surveyors discussed whether they should stay at their present location or go on to the town of Lancaster. One of them supposedly said, "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush," which means it is preferable to have a small but certain advantage than the mere potential of a greater one; and so they stayed. (Source: Wikipedia)

A winter storm deposited 6 inches of snow on the area, the night before, and blanketed the massive trees lining the driveway of the large horse farm in the background.

by Marcia Rubin

Drivers Ed… Amish Style. This young boy is learning how to drive the family buggy.
I remember Drivers Ed like it was yesterday. I remember the fear of being a passenger in the instructors car, while another novice driver was behind the wheel.
I have a feeling that is what the young boy sitting in the back seat feels like as his friend, or brother receives instruction on "How to drive a Buggy".
When you think about it, there is really no difference in how our different communities learn how to drive, we just have different means of transportation.
This was taken as a "Drive By" photo when I was a passenger in my friends car while we were out on a photo taking expedition :-)

The woman on the right is my great grandma, Johanna (Degroot) Popkes. She was born in 1872, but it's hard to say her age here-so judging by the clothing, I'm guessing this was taken a little after 1900.
All I know of the other woman is that in the photo album her name is Aunt Zena.

The setting is somewhere in the Midwestern United States around Iowa. Since they are wearing nice clothes, my guess is that they're on their way to some type of function.

by Gene Walls

A young Amish couple was actually enjoying themselves in an open buggy while the snow was falling like crazy. He was driving while she held the large umbrella over their heads. The wool blanket covering their legs was turning white as the snowflakes were accumulating on their laps. She was laughing heartily as they passed by at a quick trot.

It was completely unexpected when the young couple drove by. I had just gotten back into my van to leave (after shooting my favorite abandoned farmhouse), when I heard the horse's hooves clomping up the hill. I got my camera (which was still mounted on the tripod) up to my eye, just in time to catch this shot through the windshield!

Behind the buggy, you can see the roof of the "Forgotten Farmhouse", covered in snow. This location is just east of Clarkstown, Pennsylvania, in Muncy Valley, USA. The photo was captured in December of 2009, during our first big snowstorm of the season.

I have tremendous regard for the Amish people. I choose to avoid showing recognizable faces in my photos of the Amish, out of respect for their wishes, unless they grant permission.

The Amish are about the most "eco-friendly" people on earth!

This photo was taken hand-held with a Canon EOS 10D camera body using a Canon EF 35-350mm f/3.5-5.6L zoom lens set to 35mm. The shutter speed was 1/180th of a second at f/9.5. The camera's ISO was set to 100.

Please note that this is a full color photograph, the heavy snow and dim evening light just makes it look like it was shot in B&W.

by Gene Walls

The Amish community is very well established in central Pennsylvania. The "horse & buggy" form of transportation is a common sight in the farmlands surrounding our more "urban" cities and towns. Amish people are not very keen about having their picture taken, so I am careful to avoid any shots that included their faces, out of respect (the horse was obviously exempted from this caution).

This photo was taken on March 5th, 2009 at 5: 30 PM, handheld with a Canon EOS 10D using a Canon EF 35-350mm f/3.5-5.6L zoom lens at 70mm. The shutter speed was 1/1000th sec. at f/5.6. The camera's ISO was set to 200. The image was slightly cropped, but is otherwise "untouched".

The shot was captured along Upper Bartlow Road in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, USA just a few miles east of Clarkstown, PA. I was standing in a cornfield near the junction with Ridge Road.

by Gary L Suddath

My cesspool of knowledge about little red wagons has been spent on the previous images of this marvelous mode of transporting. For millenniums people have used the wagon in some form or another for transporting of goods and people. It wasn't until the last couple centuries a self powered version came on the scene. The idea caught on quickly form the 1st steam powered buggies to all the wide range of transportation we have today. The improvements of the millenniums are nothing to compare with the rapid increase of technology in the past 200 years. I often wonder to what extent these rapid improvements in technology have degraded our ways of life. Are out morals and since of family what they use to be? Have our standards and codes of conduct decreased from what they were when wagons and sleds were the preferred mode of moving goods form place to place…..This wagon is sitting on the Tipton Place in Cades Cove ,Great Smoky Mountain NP

by Gary L Suddath

Ah what a grand form of transportation. It not only has wheels but springs as well. This may not look much of a luxury but in those days in the Cove a sled was used more often than not. They were easier to get across the rocky ground. To have a wagon though would make the trip to Maryville or Knoxville much quicker. Mountain folk didn't really have money but bartered goods in the larger cities a few times a year, for what they couldn't make themselves. Later stores were in the Cove but trips to the big cities were still made from time to time. This spring wagon must have been a real treat to ride in. the shock from the rough rocky ground could be absorbed before it got to you. They used wagons to bring in hay, corn, and haul supplies. They drove to the Church and socials. What a rich family it was to have such a luxury….Image taken at the Tipton Place, Cades Cove, GSMNP

The Andalusian is one of the oldest breeds of horses in the world today. It is also known as the Purebred Spanish Horse or PRE (Pura Raza Española; in English, Pure Spanish-bred). It is one of the two sub-breeds of the Iberian horses, and extremely similar to the closely related Lusitano breed.

Dressage is a path and destination of competitive horse training, with competitions held at all levels from amateur to the Olympics. Its fundamental purpose is to develop, through standardized progressive training methods, a horse's natural athletic ability and willingness to perform, thereby maximizing its potential as a riding horse.
