Leighton Park School is a co-educational Quaker independent school for both day and boarding pupils in Reading in South East England. The school was founded in 1890, following the closure of Grove House School, also a Quaker establishment.
The school is based in a parkland estate just south of Reading town centre, next to the University of Reading's Whiteknights Park campus. The school is a member of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference. It offers both the International Baccalaureate and A Levels at sixth form and sends a high proportion of its pupils to Oxford or Cambridge.[1][not in citation given]
Nigel Williams has been headmaster since January 2013. He has served over 18 years at the school in a variety of roles. The previous headmaster was Alex McGrath, who had previously been the deputy headmaster of Trent College.
The School House and attached laboratories at Leighton Park are Grade II listed buildings.[2]
Leighton Park was opened in 1890 by members of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers), as a public school for boys. It was founded after Grove House School, also a Quaker school, closed in 1877. Grove School had educated notable personalities such as Lord Lister, Alfred Waterhouse and Thomas Hodgkin.
Leighton Park grew from four boys in 1890 to 103 in the 1920s. The junior school became the independent Crosfields School, making Leighton Park solely a senior school. By 1970 the school had 300 pupils, and in 1975 girls were admitted to the sixth form. In 1993 the school became fully coeducational.[3] Today the school is home to 500 pupils drawn from over 20 different countries.[4]
In 2006, Sir Steve Redgrave opened a new dining room at the school.
Traditions and routines[edit]
Leighton Park, due to its Quaker faith, has customs and traditions which differ from those in Anglican schools. These include:
- "Collect": A daily meeting similar other schools' assemblies, in which pupils gather for presentations and talks. Every collect ends with a silence lasting several minutes to reflect on the topic addressed. Unlike many school assemblies, hymns are not sung.
- "Meeting for Worship": A weekly event similar to Quaker meetings across the country. The meeting lasts about 20–25 minutes and is held in silence to reflect on thoughts and feelings, with a free forum for anyone to stand up and speak about issues on their mind.
- "Monthly Meeting": A meeting in which pupils can air grievances on any matter. It is usually chaired by the head boy and head girl while a member of staff takes the minutes. The school senior management are usually present to respond.
There are five houses at Leighton Park: four senior (School, Field, Grove and Reckitt) and one junior (Fryer). Each senior house has about 100 pupils, and the junior house has about 80 pupils. The first house established was named 'Grove', after Grove School, which Leighton Park has historical links with. The junior house, 'Fryer', houses pupils aged 11–13. All houses are mixed sex and all have facilities for day and boarding pupils.[5]
The school has a floodlit astroturf sports pitch and 22 tennis courts along with four main sports fields.[6] The school's provision includes athletics, cricket, rugby, hockey and netball, football, tennis and swimming. The school awards sports scholarships to talented students.
The school hosts an annual cross-country competition with a course more than 2.5 km long. There is also a house 'Road Relay' race and regular inter-house sport competitions in rugby, football, athletics, hockey, tennis and swimming.
Leightonian Funto Fabunmi-Alade was English Schools Athletics sprint champion in her age group for several consecutive years. In April 2011, student Charlotte Turner qualified for the UK National County Cross-Country Championships while in Year 10.[7]
The school recently hosted a Super Six Rugby Sevens Tournament, a spin-off of the 'Super Six' rugby XV cup competition that the school founded and takes part in with five other schools. It has won the cup on several occasions. The school also participates in the Daily Mail Cup rugby competition.
Music and drama[edit]
The current[when?] head of music is Rosemary Scales. All students have the chance to learn an instrument and the school has a recording studio. It also awards music scholarships and organizes an annual house music competition. Students can study music at GCSE and A-Level as well as music technology.
The drama department is headed by Geraint Thomas. Leighton Park's Main Hall theatre is the home of school productions. It is also often hired by local choral and drama companies. There is usually one main School production per academic year, alternating between a musical and a play.
Younger students at Leighton Park have the opportunity to perform in the "Fryer Festival" in the summer.
The school offers GCSE drama as well as A-level theatre studies.
Leighton Park was featured on the BBC Politics Show, which was hosted at the site in December 2010.[8]
In April 2005, Quaker-based Sunday Worship was broadcast live from Leighton Park on BBC Radio 4. Heard by an estimated 1.75 million listeners, the sequence of readings, music, ministry and silence "reflected the essence of Quaker values to the wider world."[9]
Leighton Park also featured in the press in 2005 for the introduction of a music workshop by ex-child soldier turned musician, Ben Okafor.[10]
In popular culture[edit]
The school is mentioned in the play and film The History Boys by Alan Bennett. The headmaster mentions schools he would like to emulate regarding high pupil entry to Oxford; among them is Leighton Park — 'or is that an open prison?', he adds.

No matter what I do, I cannot get Set Up Position to allow black to make the first move. Does anyone know of a solution?
No one has responded to my query. Am I the only one who experiences this problem?
Oh yes, same here. Sorry it's taken 4 years for me to think of searching for this issue.
I've tried:
Switch Sides,
Flip Board,
Set Up New Position with
White to Move First,
Black to Move First,
Myself as the top player with another human as the bottom,
Another human as the top player with Myself as the bottom player,
Also tried all scenarios with myself playing against the computer.
None let black make the first move... at least not with my copy of the game on my computer in my time zone at this latitude and altitude.
I guess I'll make a stall move with white to give tempo back to black, but I think the function is either broken or very much counterintuitive.
The rarity of this issue gives me pause though. Is it just a couple of people on the planet that would need to load a mid or late game setup into CM that requires black to make the next move? This is as interesting as it is frustrating.
Really, responding to a post that's seven years old?
Not to mention, your answer is extremely convoluted. There's a set of radio buttons marked 'Side To Move' In the Set Up Position dialog. Select the radio button marked 'Black'. It's that simple.

Comments about Laura Geller BB cream all-in-one skin-perfecting beauty balm broad spectrum SPF 21, Medium, 1.33 oz:
Very lightweight and semi-sheer. I bought this Medium color along with Light color, as I was not sure which one to get. Medium gives me a bronzed goddess look, whereas the Light color is more of a skin brightener. I have a fair Asian skin tone. It has an almost sticky and shiny texture to it --I am not sure if this is typical for BB creams. I only have Tarte's BB tinted 12-hour primer cream to compare it to, which has better coverage, much more matte in comparison.

A Kewanee man died Wednesday after suffering head injuries from a single-vehicle crash Sunday in rural Stark County.
Albert Bonner, 46, of 202 Dwight St., was pronounced dead about 10:35 p.m. at OSF Saint Francis Medical Center in Peoria.
Bonner was driving on County Road 1750 North near 900 East in Stark County when his vehicle left the road and struck and broke a utility pole. The impact caused the vehicle to overturn "multiple times," according to Peoria County Coroner Johnna Ingersoll.
Bonner, who reportedly was not wearing a seat belt, was ejected from his vehicle.
Bonner was taken to Kewanee Hospital and was transported by medical helicopter to St. Francis.
Ingersoll's office and the Stark County Sheriff's Department are investigating.

Preliminary Observations on the Use and Oversight of U.S. Coalition Support Funds Provided to Pakistan
GAO-08-735R: Published: May 6, 2008. Publicly Released: May 6, 2008.
Additional Materials:

(202) 512-7331
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
According to U.S. embassy officials in Islamabad and unclassified U.S. intelligence documents, since 2002, al Qaeda and the Taliban have used Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) and the border region to attack Pakistani, Afghan, U.S. and coalition troops; plan and train for attacks against U.S. interests; destabilize Pakistan; and spread radical Islamist ideologies that threaten U.S. interests. Since October 2001, the United States has provided Pakistan with over $10 billion for military, economic, and development activities in support of the critical U.S. national security goals of destroying terrorist threats and closing terrorist safe havens. A major component of this effort has been U.S. Coalition Support Funds (CSF) reimbursed to Pakistan. The purpose of CSF is to reimburse coalition countries for logistical and military support provided to United States military operations in the global war on terror. In Pakistan, reimbursements through CSF are intended to enable the government of Pakistan to attack terrorist networks in the FATA and stabilize the border areas. It is structured as a reimbursement mechanism in which the U.S. Department of Defense (Defense) policy is to validate that support was provided, costs were incurred, and these costs were incremental to normal Pakistani military operations. We were asked to assess how CSF reimbursements have been used to meet U.S. goals in Pakistan, and what controls exist to ensure that reimbursements are for legitimate claims.
For the period covering October 2001 through June 2007, the United States reimbursed Pakistan about $5.56 billion in CSF for military operations in FATA and other support in the war on terror. CSF reimbursement funds are paid directly into the Pakistani government treasury and become sovereign funds. Once they become sovereign funds, the U.S. government has no oversight authority over these funds. In response to a Defense Inspector General review conducted in 2003, DOD implemented additional guidance to improve oversight of the CSF reimbursed to Pakistan. Moreover, in 2007, the Office of the Defense Representative to Pakistan (ODRP) began playing a larger role in overseeing CSF reimbursement claims. In performing oversight, ODRP reviews the Pakistani claims and indicates that to the best of their knowledge military support was provided and expenses were actually incurred. U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) then validates that Pakistani operations listed were essential to support U.S. military operations in the theater. The claims are sent to the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Comptroller, who (1) performs a macro-level review comparing the cost to similar operations, and (2) assesses whether the cost categories are reasonable, selected subcategories are reasonable compared to U.S. costs, and costs are consistent with previous claims. In addition, both the Undersecretary of Defense for Policy and the State Department verify that the reimbursement is consistent with the U.S. government's National Security Strategy and that the CSF payment does not adversely impact the balance of power in the region. In recent months, Defense has disallowed or deferred a significantly greater amount of CSF reimbursement claims from Pakistan.

Texas has much to be proud of. The spirit of Texas can be found in the defenders of the Alamo and Sam Houston's Texan Army who won independence for Texas at San Jacinto in 1836. It can be found in the Battleship Texas, the only remaining American ship to serve in both World Wars. The Texas fought off of Omaha Beach on D-Day, it fought off Iwo Jima, and Okinawa. It can be found in the swagger of cowboys, and the sashay of cowgirls. It can be found in small towns like Rio Hondo, and the large metropolises of Houston and Dallas. It can be found in old and young alike. Texas gets in your blood. I am a seventh generation Texan. I am proud to be a Texan.
Directions to the Letterbox:
Texas Proud can be located in the San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site. From Houston take Loop 610 East to Texas Highway 225 and travel east for 11 miles to Battleground Road (Texas Highway 134). Turn left (north) and go about 2 miles. Turn right (east) on Park Road 1836 and drive to the Monument. Note: San Jacinto Day is April 21st so the weekend surrounding that date is filled with reenactments and celebrations so it may be hard to be discreet on those days.
Drive around the Monument to the northeast side (back right side as you approach). Find the interpretive trail and follow it. Do not turn right onto trail but continue to the outdoor classroom ahead. Go to the head of the class and address your students. Look toward the Monument, you can't miss it, it's taller then the Washington Monument. Find the closest tree between you and the Monument. Texas Proud can be found at the base of the tree on the right side in a little alcove behind some branches. Please recover well.
Be sure to check out the Monument and the Battleship Texas located on the grounds of the park, as well as Birdsofafeather's Tickling The Ivories, Silver Eagle's San Jacinto, and Lightnin Bug's TX Corundum Conundrum letterboxes located in the park.

Best Uses
This will be good for the few cold/cool days, but is thick.
Be aware, this shirt runs EXTREMELY small in the arms and across the bust. I have been buying Duluth Trading t-shirts for years. I like an XLG for comfort and ease of movement throughout busy active days, but this shirt in XLG was so tight in the sleeves I could not keep them rolled up as in the photo, and so tight across the bust the buttons gaped. So sad really, with the fitting issues and poor construction of some of the other shirts I ordered, I am having to rethink ordering from Duluth again.
Best Uses
Great Shirt
Best Uses
With the raglan sleeves, I thought I had found a nice, durable, polo-style shirt that would fit my 41" shoulders. Sadly, this did not.
The XS fit me beautifully through the waist and hips (25 and 36", respectively), but was so tight through the shoulders and biceps that I couldn't raise my arms over my head!
I'm afraid if I go up large enough to fit my shoulders (my guess is a medium based on other reviews) it would be way too big through the waist and hips.
Based on their advertising, I thought Duluth Trading Co would actually have clothes that fit the beautiful shoulders of women who do physical labor. I'm very disappointed that their women's clothes are just as pear-shaped as everywhere else.
Best Uses
I love this shirt. It is very comfortable and warm, love the extra thickness. I usually wear a medium in other brands, and tend to wear small with Duluth. But I ordered a medium based on other reviews and it fit perfectly. I probably could have ordered a small and it would have just been a tighter fit but still comfortable. It is casual but looks nice enough to go run errands and such

SHEPHERDSVILLE - Two weeks following the most exciting two minutes in sports, Jesus Castanon experienced a similar highlight in just under a minute and 57 seconds.
Castanon, a Shepherdsville resident and professional jockey, rode the three-year-old colt Shackleford to the lead and then to the wire, winning the 136th running of the Preakness Stakes at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - Although media coverage of the Alabama tornado damage lessens as weeks pass by, relief efforts across the nation - and across Bullitt County - remain strong.
Each day, 15 people die awaiting a life-saving organ transplant.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - Professional jockey Jesus Castanon recently rode in his first Kentucky Derby, with a fourth-place finish aboard the colt Shackleford. Later that night Castanon and his family headed to their ol' Kentucky home, not so far away, in Bullitt County.
Jesus and his wife, Rolanda, have lived in Shepherdsville for most of their decade-long marriage. They have two children, Drew (8) and Isaiah (3).
HEBRON ESTATES - Your feet may hurt. Your eyes might feel heavy. You may be drenched from rain, sweating from humidity, or shivering from a wind chill. But you won't stop walking, no matter the conditions. Because the night symbolizes the fight against cancer; the fight that patients can't simply quit.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - When Christian Hutchison grows up, he plans on being a marine biologist in Virginia. After he retires from that, he's going to work for NASA.

A Cowboys Gear
A cowboys hat his protection,
From the sun and the rain, its a must
His boots - they are a part of him
Protect him from the mud and the dust
A bandana tied round his face
His leather duster a second skin
Same ones for every race
No matter what mood hes in
A blanket under his saddle
Both held on by the girth
Controlling his mount bit and bridle
Bedroll keeps his head from the earth
His stallion a comfort to sit on
Its value more than its worth
The lasso for roping the lone one
Round the neck from the air back and forth
His stirrups for mounting and safety
A rest for his feet as he rides
Silver spurs not for vanity
But guiding his horse by its sides
Day dreams when he should be branding
His woman he dreams by his side
If thru all this hes still standing
Hell ask her to be his bride
At night a song from the prarie
The cows and horses they low
A lone cowboys spirit is merry
Cause today hes going home

Go to Winstead Hill Memorial off Hwy 31 at Mack Hatcher Pkwy. Walk up twelve cement stairs between entry signs. Sign on left says, "This plot of 9 acres..." and sign on the right says "The Franklin Chapter... Continue up next seven cement stairs with Mississippi Memorial on your right. Continue up next five cement stairs to The Observation Post. Once youve reached The Observation Post cross the porch to the back post and take a compass reading of 240 degrees. What youre looking for is behind a Honeysuckle bush in the rock ledge under rocks and leaves.
Please re-hide as if it was your own.
Winstead Hill is a beautiful park with an amphitheater planed for the future. Take time to look at the city and map of Battle of Franklin at The Observation Post. Please be respectful, leave the Park as it is when you get there. Have fun and happy boxing.

Cultural barriers remain, but the China-LatAm relationship is starting to blossom. Both sides hope to convert dialogue into more frequent large transactions.
As LatAm stares down a growing list of infrastructure needs, builders and governments hope private lenders return. The only certainty is multilateral and state lending.
Southern Copper faces stiff competition in Peru from new and expanding projects. But it is digging deep to keep on top as the country's leading red metal producer.
With Petrobras' $70 billion capitalization out of the way, other LatAm equity issuers are cleared for takeoff.
Mexican telecoms and Brazilian oil pump up the deal volume numbers claimed by advisors, but flow is still up year-on-year, even after stripping out distorting Telmex and Petrobras trades.
The crop of boutiques that sprang up from the bulge bracket wreckage faces fresh competition. They will need relationships, international connections and a proper structure to survive.
Brazil's government-controlled lender is using a natural size advantage to pursue niches it does not already dominate. Careful international expansion is next for Banco do Brasil.
Mexican retail banks are known for making customers pay through their noses.
El Salvador's Banco Agrícola, part of Colombia's Bancolombia since 2007, is expected to end this year with results that compare favorably with those obtained at the end of 2009, says Fitch, which has an AA+ (stable) local rating on the bank.
State-controlled Banco de Costa Rica has gained market share through the financial crisis, growing the loan portfolio and expanding facilities.
Banco de Reservas has shrugged off macroeconomic weakness in the Dominican Republic caused by the global financial crisis and continues to grow.
Ecuador's Banco Pichincha has been busy expanding within and beyond the country's borders. At the same time, it has been able to keep its financial indicators in line with or better than that of the banking system as a whole.
Jamaica's National Commercial Bank (NCB) has passed the test of a weak local economy and a sovereign debt restructuring relatively unscathed, as profitability and liquidity remain at acceptable levels.
Puerto Rico has been suffering a recession for more than four years. Several banks have collapsed, unemployment has soared and bankruptcies have increased.
Bolivia's small size has meant its banks suffered few effects of the credit crisis in 2008 and 2009.

Popeyes® is Bring'n Back Rip'n Chick'n and Drop'n the G's
Published on Monday, 28 May 2012 09:34 Written by TradersHuddle StaffATLANTA-( Business Wire )-
Popeyes® Louisiana Kitchen, a division of AFC Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: AFCE), is bring'n back it's rip-roar'n delicious Rip'n Chick'n—juicy tenders cut into pull-apart strips that are easy to rip and dip! Popeyes Rip'n Chick'n will be available May 28 through June 24 with Cajun fries, buttermilk biscuit and Ranch Sauce for dip'n just $3.99.
Popeyes Rip'n Chick'n is a whole chicken breast cut into tenders only partially, and left intact at the base for rip-able strips. It's marinated with a blend of cayenne, habañero, white and black peppers, and then is hand battered, breaded, and cooked up in Popeyes signature crispy batter. To cool it off, Rip'n Chick'n is served with a side of buttermilk Ranch Sauce for dip'n.
We Don't Need an ING to Know it's Tasty!
"Rip'n Chick'n is a unique and fun product, so we had a lot of fun coming up with a name," said Vice President of Marketing Hector Munoz. "Then we thought, much like we changed the "ing" in the name to "'n," what if all the web sites we visited 'Ripped the G's' too? So, we ideated a plug-in that would do just that. We think customers will have just as much fun Rip'n their Chick'n as "brows'n" the headlines of their favorite websites."
Visit www.Popeyes.com/ripn to activate and start turn'n each "-ing" into an "'n." To celebrate the return of Rip'n Chick'n, consumers can start read'n rip'd up web copy by drag'n the Rip'n icon to their bookmarks bar, go'n to their favorite websites and click'n the Rip'n Chick'n tab. The bookmarklet, developed by the restaurant's digital agency Campbell Mithun, turns everyday content into a surpris'n and entertain'n experience.
Consumers who use the app can share links to their rip'd up content via Facebook or Twitter. The Rip'n Chick'n landing page also features a number of rip'd headlines from across the Internet like:
- "Mom pleads not guilty to allow'n daughter in tann'n booth"
- "Giant cannibal shrimp invasion grow'n"
- "Economic output: eas'n from prior quarter, but maintain'n sustainable pace"
We're Rip'n Through More than Just ING's, We're Rip'n Through Cities and Drop'n G's (Money!)*
Not only are we rip'n out the –ing's online, but we are also rip'n through five U.S. cities and literally drop G's ($1000)! Popeyes will be drop'n $1,000 worth of Popeyes gift checks to one lucky Popeyes lover in five cities—Chicago, D.C., Houston, Los Angeles, and New Orleans—that's enough money for almost a gazillion pieces of chicken! Check out Popeyes on Facebook (www.Facebook.com/PopeyesLouisianaKitchen) and Twitter (@PopeyesChicken) for clues to find'n the briefcase full of Popeyes gift checks in your city!
"Popeyes Rip'n Chick'n is a great portion of our zesty boneless chicken with a kick that can be eaten alone, or shared with your favorite people," said Munoz. "We wanted to share the fun of this product with our fans online across the globe and on the ground in cities across America. We are drop'n the G's all over but most importantly in your local Popeyes!"

To a Reunited Eva Gabor and Eddie Albert, Green Acres Is More Than Just a Funny Farm
"Vat do ve do vith falafel?" asks his wife, Lisa, puzzled.
"Alfalfa," Oliver corrects. "It's fodder for the animals."
"But vat about da mother?"
"Mother? No, no, Lisa. Fodder is what animals eat."
"Dey eat der father? How terrible!"
And how comforting to fans of the 1965-71 TV smash Green Acres (still a hit in reruns) to know that Oliver's agricultural travails and Lisa's dizzy malaprops are being tilled again for a two-hour CBS special, which just finished taping in L.A. Airing May 18, Return to Green Acres sends original stars Eddie Albert and Eva Gabor back among their oddball Hooterville neighbors, including wise-snorting Arnold the pig.
To the reunited cast, this seemingly trifling tale of a city-slicker lawyer and his socialite wife in the sticks was and is more than hick slapstick. During a break in shooting, Albert, who turns 82 next week but has kept active in movies and TV, reflects on the show's continuing popularity. "A professor once told me students see it as surrealistic. He said, 'The comedy is like Pickwick Papers or Gulliver's Travels or Voltaire. It's so far out that it becomes truth, deep truth.' "The show's cult status on some campuses may support this thesis. Then again, maybe not.
Gabor, 69ish and looking svelte in Lisa's inappropriately glamorous suit, agrees that Green Acres had plenty of appeal. "It was wonderful, warm," says the actress, who is starring as a matchmaker in a CBS pilot while heading Eva Gabor International, the largest U.S. wig company. "In some ways I've never left," she sighs.
Except for Hank Patterson, a/k/a Mr. Ziffel, who died in 1975, the supporting cast—Frank Cady as store owner Sam Drucker, Tom Lester as handyman Eb, Alvy Moore as the rambling Hank Kimball and Pat Buttram as con man Mr. Haney—jumped at the chance to reprise their roles. "Hooterville is someplace that you pick out in your mind," muses Moore. "With all the harassment today, it's pleasant to think there is someplace on earth that is still uncomplicated."
Meditating further, Albert adds that the show "is a comment on how insane our society is. The writing was very light and very weird, but it had a profound base under it that none of us knew." Come to think of it, neither did we.

An Taobh Eile on Wild Atlantic WayIrelandDonegalDonegal
About this listing
This is a gorgeous stone cottage, recently refurbished to a high standard. It sleeps two in a comfortable king sized bed and the possibility of an extra bed in the living room. The cottage overlooks a lake in a remote corner of North West Donegal.
Space where guests can cook their own meals
Towels, bed sheets, soap, and toilet paper
Central heating or a heater in the listing
The Space
This is a traditional cottage which has just been totally refurbished. It is remotely situated in a rural area in the hills of north west Donegal and is the perfect place to come and get away from it all. It is very isolated! A good place for star gazing or for viewing the aurora borealis. The local town is 4 miles away and has a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants. It is a great place to come and stay for those who love walking, fishing and wild swimming. For the walking enthusiasts there is a wide choice of winding roads, rolling hills and spectacular coastal walkways, plus there are endless places to go if you love angling, including the lake overlooked by the cottage about 100 metres away. Sea angling trips can also be arranged and there are boat trips to the islands in summer months - weather permitting.
The cottage has one double bedroom and an extra guest can be accommodated on a futon in the living area. It has a comfortable bathroom with a shower, a well equipped kitchen/diner and a comfortable living area. The furniture is all new and modern. There is no TV and mobile connections are variable. Internet is available with a dongle which plugs into your laptop.
There is also a byre where you can store bicycles, golf clubs and sports equipment.
This is an 'eco-renovation' with a solar panel, a well and rain water harvesting. It is a lovely warm cottage with a wood or turf burning stove. Fuel is supplied.
Beautiful beaches are a short drive away where you can walk, swim, scuba dive, wind surf etc. Boat trips to the islands are available in the summer months. We are close to Donegal airport (15 minutes, flights to Dublin and Glasgow), Derry, Dublin and Belfast airport are further away. You would need a car to stay here.
The area is renowned for its traditional music. Leo's tavern (Enya, Clannad, Moya Brennan) is a short drive and Hudie Beg's bar is also close.
If you send me a shopping list I can provide most of it with enough notice. We live very close by and are available for help and support, but we would leave you alone apart from one courtesy visit.
If you have any questions please send me a message and I will happily get back to you as soon as I can. Thanks.
Guest Access
The whole house
Interaction with Guests
We usually call in once to see if everything is OK, otherwise you are left alone, but we are available!
The Neighborhood
Its very quiet and peaceful, yet not too far from a town where you can get most food stuffs, and other areas where there is beautiful live music.
The main road is on the Wild Atlantic way with all the facilities that offers. (URL HIDDEN) - our region is called Northern Headlands
Also check out (URL HIDDEN)
Getting Around
No public transport, you need a car or at least a bicycle. There are buses from the local town to various parts of Donegal and beyond.
Other Things to Note
We are part of the Wild Atlantic Way Northern Headlands region. (URL HIDDEN)
Obviously you will respect our property and the furniture, fixings and fittings. Our guests always leave the place beautifully clean and tidy which is much appreciated. We recycle all the waste and would ask you to cooperate with this (specially labelled bins are provided which we will empty) Obey the composting rules too - they are not too onerous!
The gate needs to be kept shut as there are wandering sheep who aim to eat all the wild flowers we have carefully planted.
Please no smoking in the house. One dog is welcome but must be kept on a lead when outside the gate because of the sheep.

Now, we're not film majors or anything, but Sosa showing up swaddled in a red bathrobe is a pretty heavy-handed way of symbolizing him as the devil. When he hears about Alberto getting merked in NYC instead of the journalist, it's pretty obvious that the one time he doesn't show up in all-white means he's about to get all Satanic and shit.

does anyone else think...
that if fed were to win roland garros without rafa in the final, it'll be a little less special, considering that's who's been holding him back all these years? just asking. i actually don't want to see fed win against anyone BUT nadal, it seems only right.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
I agree Jude. People seem to forget how much Rafa has achieved for the past 4 or 5years.
He won Aussie Open this year and is the reigning Wimbledon champion.
All great champions in sports have their ups and downs, including Roger.
I hope Rafa can bounce quickly from that loss last Sunday.
Gud luck to Roger tomorrow!!!!

Thanks Non your comments are much appreciated I havnt been very popular on here lately lol!!!

I don't think it'll be less special. I'm glad the guy who beat Nadal has reached the final, now Roger has to do what Ferrer/Nadal/Davydenko/Gonzales failed to do. Soderling has shown the victory over Nadal was no fluke. So this is still a special match; now factor in the career grand-slam and record-equalling 14th major... Nadal is just a footnote in this story.
I really want Fed to win but not because of the record books. He just plays the most beautiful tennis.
I know exactly what you mean Amy, and before everybody swoops down at me like vultures (lol) I am not having a go at Federer because I do like him, but Nadal is his big bogey player and Federer openly admits he has a poor record against him. If Nadal hadnt crashed out, or indeed Djokovic, I dont think everybody would be quite so quick to put their money on him. But tennis being the game it is anything can happen, even the impossible, so it looks increasingly like Fed will get his long deserved career slam. He has a 9-0 record against Soderling so fingers crossed it should all come together nicely. But to the people who are quick to write Nadal off as being finished and Federers rise again to the throne just remember Federer has had some bad (and very recent) results and he has been pushed to the limit by players he would have previously steam rollered. Nadal has had a horrible past few weeks but he has still won 5 tournaments this year. Dont go digging his grave over a couple of bad results.

he won 11 of his slams against other players that are not nadal...it only means nadal wasnt there...wasnt good enough..im not saying nadal isnt good on clay,he is the King of Clay, but he didnt rose to the occasion..roger always do, he has 20th straight semi finals in grand slams...if he wins on sunday against "the rafa conqueror" do you think it will be less important or mean less??? i surely wont...if roger wins, we will see the happiness in him...~cheers

Moot point!
If Federer really does rise to the occasion why didn't he against Nadal at Wimbledon in last years final?
i can understand what you say. federer winning french is more important - nadal is not very important in his list of priority. nadal was an aberration and is on the way out burning himself out. ofcourse federer will kick nadals butt very soon again. dunno if nadal will be playing till next french open though or prefer an easy way out like marion jones.

Nadal not being high on the list of priorities to Federer eh?
I'm sorry but I have to disagree on this point, I admit that it was a shock that Nadal lost at RG, but to write off his chances of ever beating Federer again is honestly well wide of the mark.
After last years win at RG everyone was saying that Fed would gain his revenge at Wimbledon... yet... Nadal triumphed at Wimbledon as well - funny that!!.
Don't be too hasty in writing of Nadal's chances quite yet!
A Yahoo! User Jun 6, 2009 03:52 Flag
Very narrow minded view there Amy.
It seems to me that what you are saying is there isn't no one good enough to play against Federer but Nadal ( or vice-versa ).
I think if Fed does win against Soderling on Sunday he WILL deserve it especially since the French Open is the one that has eluded him so far.

Who Will Replace the Suspended Keith Olbermann? Not Chris Hayes
Chris Hayes, tapped Friday by MSNBC to fill in for the indefinitely suspended Keith Olbermann as host of the prime-time political show "Countdown," gave money to two Democratic campaigns in recent years. Now, following that disclosure, MSNBC says Mr. Hayes won't get the gig after all.
Mr. Hayes, editor of The Nation, a liberal magazine, made a series of donations to Josh Segall, an Alabama Democrat, who ran for Congress in 2008 and considered running in the Democratic primary for this election. Mr. Hayes donated $1,500 to Mr. Segall in 2008 and $250 in December 2009, according to Federal Election Commission records.
The editor also donated $250 in January 2009 to Thomas Geoghegan, who ran in a primary for an Illinois seat. This summer, Mr. Hayes interviewed Mr. Geoghegan, an author, when he guest hosted The Rachel Maddow Show, another MSNBC program.
Earlier Friday, MSNBC President Phil Griffin suspended Mr. Olbermann, one of the network's highest-profile anchors, indefinitely without pay for donating to three Democrats running in Tuesday's election. In one case, Mr. Olbermann donated to one candidate the same day he hosted her on his show, "Countdown with Keith Olbermann."

I'd like to see in the next versions a real language support, actually it doesn't work at all
I'd like to see in the next versions a real language support, actually it doesn't work at all
WordPress supports multiple languages via plugins like WPML.
but how can you get the Admin panel in English and the website in German ?
like Joomla in a very simple way
I would think http://wpml.org/ would do it, personally, but ... I don't know anyone who does that.
thank you
qTranslate http://www.qianqin.de/qtranslate/
got support for that. You can easily switch between languages both front- and back-end.
I have installed it but I cannot run both lang at the same time ? I can only change admin lang for my needs ?
thank you
I think Worpress is missing a main feature with this lack of language settings
WP being singlelingual is a major drawback on a system that I absolutely love in most other respects.
Having a translation plugin does not mean you can have a truly multilingual site. Sure it handles posts, pages and themes but as long as there is no language selector in the core the system is seriously crippled. My main grief is with the wp-login.php only observing the one globally set language.
Now that the premier choice - WPML - got greedy and went commercial it would be high time for the WP community to really address this issue.
I want too an official multi-language support from wordpress! Plugins aren't good.

The Justice Department has brought its first charges of cyber espionage against a nation-state with the May 19 indictment of five officers in China's People's Liberation Army.
The five officers from a PLA hacking unit in Shanghai are charged with stealing proprietary economic information from six major U.S. companies and organizations, including producers of nuclear energy and aluminum.
Attorney General Eric Holder said the indictment was a shot across the bow to countries that would use intellectual property theft as a tool of statecraft.
"This case should serve as a wakeup call to the seriousness of the ongoing cyber threat," Holder said at a press conference. "These criminal charges represent a groundbreaking step forward in addressing that threat."
The six companies alleged to have been hacked are Allegheny Technologies Inc., Alcoa Inc., U.S. subsidiaries of SolarWorld, Westinghouse Electric Co., U.S. Steel Corp., and the United Steelworkers union.
The United States does not have an extradition treaty with China and the likelihood of the five defendants appearing in a U.S. court seems slim.
Prosecutors hope an indictment will yield better results than diplomacy has in deterring China from sponsoring cyberattacks on U.S. firms. A February 2013 report by U.S. security firm Mandiant pinpointed the same Shanghai offices as a launching pad for cyberattacks. Less than two months later, Washington and Beijing agreed to set up a cybersecurity working group in an effort to ease tensions on the issue.
American prosecutors appeared fed up with China's alleged cyber transgressions. "For the first time, we are exposing the faces and names behind the keyboards in Shanghai used to steal from American businesses," Assistant Attorney Gen. John Carlin said at the press conference.
While U.S.-China cooperation on cybersecurity appears strained, the indictment "may create momentum on the international stage for some type of agreement on cybercrime" in forums such as the European Union's Convention on Cybercrime, according to Matt Rhoades, a cybersecurity expert at the Truman National Security Project.
The Obama administration is "looking to be more aggressive in their prosecution" of economic cyber theft "because it is damaging to the U.S. economic recovery," he said in an interview.
Administration officials said as much in announcing the indictment. "Our economic security and our ability to compete fairly in the global marketplace are directly linked to our national security," Holder said. "Success in the international marketplace should be based solely on a company's ability to innovate and compete, not on a sponsor government's ability to spy and to steal business secrets."
DOJ hinted that it could have more indictments of state actors in its quiver. "This first indictment of Chinese cyber actors clears the way for additional charges to be made. This is the new normal. This is what you're going to see on a recurring basis," said Robert Anderson, executive assistant director of the FBI's Criminal, Cyber, Response and Services Branch.

OMB's Data Center Optimization Initiative gives agencies new metrics and goals for fiscal 2018.

The agency software inventories required under the draft category management policy will be treasure maps that lead to efficient, effective, streamlined buying and unprecedented savings.
As experts warned of the "dire" threats posed by outdated federal technology, lawmakers grilled top feds, debated workforce issues and inched closer to backing a $3.1 billion fix-it fund.
The agency is making strides in developing and deploying border technologies but still has some weaknesses.

Do-it-yourself projects and plans for anyone who can swing a hammer.
By Troy Griepentrog
Recently, one of our Mother Earth News editors asked if it would be possible to repair an electrical cord on an iron. The plug had torn away from the cord. This is an easy and low-cost repair. So we fixed the iron in our offices and took some photos for you.
Here are step by step instructions so you can repair that lamp that's been in your attic waiting for a new electrical plug.
Step 1: Cut off the end of the cord so that you have a straight, clean end to work with.
Step 2: Split the cord in two about 3/4 inch at the end where you'll add the new plug.
Step 3: With a wire stripper, remove the insulation from the end of the cord (Photo 1).
Step 4: Thread the ends of the wire through the housing (covering) of the replacement plug.
Step 5: Wrap (clockwise) the ends of the wires around the screws on the prongs of the replacement plug and tighten the screws to snug (Photo 2).
Step 6: Gently push the prongs into the housing and insert the spacer to keep the prongs (and wires) separated. This also keeps the prongs in place (Photo 3).
It's important that the wires from the two sides of the cord do not touch (not even a single strand of each). That would create a fire hazard and potential for electrical shock.
Now that you've repaired the electrical plug, it's more important than ever to grasp the plug (instead of pulling on the cord) when unplugging from an outlet.

What A Life!
God's love fits into life's tragedies
Published: Friday, October 21, 2005 at 7:54 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, October 21, 2005 at 10:54 a.m.
Last week I wrote about two things we can learn from reflecting on the disasters caused by hurricanes Katrina and Rita. This week I would like to continue this train of thought.
We need to develop a clear vision of where God fits into lifes tragedies. Some spiritual leaders have interpreted Katrina and Rita as Gods punishment for peoples sinfulness in our country. Some examples: an ultraconservative Israeli rabbi declared that Katrina was retribution for U.S. support of the Israeli pullout from Gaza. Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam called Katrina Gods judgment for the Iraq war. A Kuwaiti official said, "The Terrorist Katrina is a soldier of Allah."
The Christian Civic Group of Maine noted that the hurricane struck just as New Orleans was planning a huge gay-rights festival. The festival "has been cleansed," agreed Pastor Bill Shanks of the New Covenant Fellowship in New Orleans. "Theres no murder in our city now; thats been cleansed. Drugs, murders, we dont have that stuff anymore." A group called Columbia Christians for Life said God unleashed the havoc to destroy the five abortion clinics in New Orleans. And that Rita targeted Texas because it has the fourth-highest abortion rate in the country.
Alabama Sen. Hank Erwin said in his weekly column, "New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast have always been known for gambling, sin and wickedness. It is the kind of behavior that ultimately brings the judgment of God." Monsignor Robert Guste of New Orleans expressed similar sentiments in a prayer at a recent New Orleans City Council meeting. He suggested that the hurricanes were Gods chastisement for the metro area sins of gambling, Mardi Gras and the Southern Decadence festival.
These kinds of statements turn people off to religion. This is not the loving God that Jesus revealed. Jesus rejected this type of thinking when he talked about two tragedies of his day -- the death of the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices and the tower of Siloam that fell and killed 18 people. Jesus asked, "Do you think that they were worse sinners than all the others living in Jerusalem?" His answer was an emphatic "No!"
Archbishop Alvin Hughes of New Orleans refuted this position in his homily at the first post-Katrina Mass in St. Louis Cathedral when he said that God cannot do evil. God can only do good. God did not send the hurricanes to punish people. Charles W. Hedrick, distinguished professor emeritus of religious studies at Missouri State University, said, "If God is using Katrina ëto get those damn casinos (as some have suggested), then in the process he is also taking out hospitals, seminaries and orphanages."
Rabbi Marc Gellman of Beth Torah Synagogue in Melville, N.Y., said "Clerics who believe that this was Gods punishment ought to consider other employment." The Rev. Larry Snyder, head of Catholic Charities USA, declared, "God stands with the people suffering, and God is in the hands of the people who are doing rescue and reconstruction. When you focus on the loss and grief they have experienced, you have to ask, ëWhy? Yet, when you focus on the extraordinary human response, then you can see that good can come even from tragedy."
God brings good out of every tragic situation. Our God is Emmanuel, "God with us." If we are open to the presence of our loving God in our lives, God will help us through this tragedy and any tragedy we may face in life. God will also inspire us to reach out to others in need.
Next week we will look at other lessons we can learn from these tragedies.
The Rev. Wilmer L. Todd is pastor of St. Genevieve Church in Thibodaux and a freelance columnist. He can be reached by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com, or by writing to 815 Barbier Ave., Thibodaux, LA 70301.

"All I Want for Christmas is…" Bieber
Shhh…can you hear that? It's the collective sounds of millions of girls screaming about the leak of Justin Bieber's holiday album, Under the Mistletoe. He's already gracing the cover of the latest Billboard issue (out October 31). The pop-heartthrob has teamed up with a few famous artists to cover holiday favorites such as "The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)," "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" and "All I Want For Christmas Is You." The singer duets with Usher, Boyz II Men and Busta Rhymes. While those artists may not be your cup of tea, the album is still a smooth holiday tribute. However, Thanksgiving is before Christmas…luckily, the Biebz didn't do a cover of this Thanksgiving favorite from Adam Sandler.

As she continues to describe her process, you can see why her lyrics are so powerful and descriptive. The way she talks is just as artistic. Check out the video of another song, "Shake it Out," from the much-anticipated album.
