Summer Savings at the Arizona Biltmore Resort, Phoenix
Now's the time to find fantastic savings and oodles of family activities at the "Jewel of the Desert." Situated in the heart of Phoenix on 39 lush acres at the foot of Phoenix Mountain Preserve, the Arizona Biltmore is oft-considered one of the world's finest resorts, with its oasis of swimming pools, gardens and Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired architecture. The distinguished clientele--including visiting Presidents and celebrities-- enjoy the resort's spectacular facilities, including eight swimming pools, seven tennis courts, 18-hole putting course, fitness center, and full-service European spa. The neighboring Arizona Biltmore Country Club offers two 18-hole PGA golf courses.
With Summer Specials, villas are a steal starting at $299, and classic rooms from $149. The resort is offering enhanced poolside amenities and a full agenda of activities for the whole family to enjoy: from Dive-In Movies (enjoy popular movies on the big screen while floating in the Paradise Pool, or on the deck with Ben and Jerry's ice cream novelties), to S'mores and Salsa making demonstrations and poolside massage. In the Summertime, enjoy the best of the Biltmore.
Summertime in Prague: the Boscolo Hotel Carlo IV
There's just something about Prague. All that Baroque architecture, artists congregating on Charles Bridge, the old-world charm of the city's squares and streets, buzzing nightlife, and romance oozing from each distinct neighborhood. Prague is magical and alluring. In the middle of it all in the captivating Czech capital, the Boscolo Hotel Carlo IV is a majestic historical masterpiece. It is elegant, refined, and absolutely gorgeous-- definitely the place to stay in the heart of Prague's historical center. Behind the neo-classical facade, the appointments are sophisticated: a melange of wood, fine marble, ornate stuccowork, and exquisite furniture. There's a business center, Cigar Bar, excellent Wellness Center with noteworthy indoor swimming pool (its beautiful mosaic floor is pictured), fine dining, and state-of-the-art technology in all luxurious rooms. What's not to love?

Luxury Cruises: Royal Caribbean's Freedom of the Seas
May 11, 2006
By: Mary Winston Nicklin
It's big, it's bad…Royal Caribbean's new boat eclipses them all. Freedom of the Seas is set to sail, and the media is abuzz. At 208 feet tall, weighing 160,000 tons, and with a capacity for 4,000 passengers, this baby dwarfs Cunard's Queen Mary 2-- and grabs the title of world's biggest passenger ship. The mother of them all sports some pretty nifty "firsts" in the cruising world: rock-climbing wall, ice-skating rink with (Good God) Willy Bietak's Ice Skating Musical Extravaganza, mini-golf, boxing ring, water park, and top-deck surfing pool called "Flow Rider." And as recommended by Fodor's, the perfect family cruise experience. Look out, Caribbean.

Going To: Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the Balmoral Hotel, Scotland
The folks at Daily Candy have scouted the world for their favorite summer festivals, and we can't help but heartily agree with their picks. Especially with the Scottish vote. The Fringe Festival is an outrageously fun and quirky event, full of alternative whimsy and improv energy, billed as "the biggest arts festival in the world." (Last year they hosted a whopping 1,800 shows in 250 venues.) The 60th annual festival, running from August 6-28, promises to be equally as exciting, with theather and comedy shows galore. Where to stay? Do it right and score a room at Rocco Forte's Balmoral, of course. A perfect location, serious Scottish charm, Michelin star rated restaurant, swanky spa, CNT Gold List awarded rooms, and spectacular views of the Edinburgh Castle… what more could you ask for?

We spend years training, managing, and loving our dogs. We know them inside and out.
But can we learn something new by seeing them through someone else's eyes?
Meeting a Blogger and Her Dogs
I was surprised but thrilled when I got an email from Kirsten of The Peaceful Dog blog. Kirsten and her boyfriend Florian would be visiting Ithaca with their dogs, Fozzie and Lamar, and wanted to stop by to say hello.
We agreed to meet outside, in front of the house, and take the dogs for a hike in the snow.
Lamar is a mature dog. I see him as a senior statesman who knows what's going on in everyone's mind all the time.
Fozzie is a handsome, brindle pup with a strong presence.
The dogs reacted to Honey with some excitement so we just started walking. After a while, we allowed some sniffie greetings and continued our walk.
Both of Kirsten's dogs are failed fosters. But she has succeeded at turning them into wonderful dogs.
Because Kirsten has worked so hard with Fozzie in particular, she's very sensitive to the signals he gives off and tries hard to set him up for success.
And it works. We had a wonderful visit together.
I thought Kirsten might be curious about Fozzie's impression on a stranger—someone who hasn't witnessed or worked with his issues and sees him as he is today.
Fozzie Through a Stranger's Eyes
Fozzie is one of the most curious and alert dogs I've ever met. If I could observe his actions without seeing him, I'd guess he was a German Shepherd. He has that attentive vibe.
There's no smell or motion that dog misses.
I can only imagine how hard it must have been to stay ahead of his reactions.
But today, he notices everything. He catalogs it in his mind. He keeps walking.
Fozzie is also a good communicator. I know that by watching Honey.
Honey is always ready to play. But in their greetings, Fozzie told her exactly what he expected from their brief relationship. And Honey got it. I didn't see her pestering him again for attention like she would with some dogs with more vague communication skills.
When we returned from our walk, Fozzie made himself at home. He was a perfect gentleman.
Maybe Fozzie has issues. But I didn't see them. I saw a responsive, alert dog with a friendly heart.
Seeing a Person Through Another's Eyes
I'm pretty critical. I try not to be. But it's the default switch I always need to be aware of.
If it's good for dogs to be seen through a stranger's eyes, it's also good for people. If it weren't, I might not be married today.
I met my now-husband as a freshman in college.
He wore strange clothing combinations, like white jeans, white sweat socks, and black dress shoes. He talked a lot. And he followed me around like a lost puppy dog.
Let's face it. He was a geek. And not the multimillionaire computer programmer kind. He was just weird.
But he had some interesting friends. I knew two other girls who had crushes on him (?!). And I liked his friend Gabe a lot. Gabe is thoughtful and smart. And he liked Mike. So maybe Mike was worth a second look.
Seeing Mike through other people's eyes opened my mind. And introduced me to my best friend and love of my life.
Seeing Your Dog Through Someone Else's (Loving) Eyes
I've happened into a great community of dog lovers.
The folks I've met online care about their dogs. Are responsible pet caregivers. And create stimulating lives for their animals.
But the flip side of all that responsibility is crushing guilt and self-doubt.
I can't count the number of posts I've read by bloggers wondering if they're doing all they can for their dogs, worrying about what others think about their dog's behavior, and stressing over their dog's state of mind.
If that describes you, maybe it's time to see your dog through someone else's eyes. And no, not that traumatized mail carrier who's terrified of dogs or your mother-in-law who thinks dogs should be seen (preferably in the back yard) and not heard.
What does your dog look like to someone who loves dogs? Who knows who dogs are? And who appreciates their smart and opportunistic ways that make them such companions to people?
Because if you've spent the past few months or years managing your dog's reactions to strangers or other dogs, keeping her from jumping on every person who comes to the door, or teaching a good recall, you have that image of what you started with.
But we just see your wonderful, well-loved dog.

The Harlequin
It was one of my many insomnia nights when the Harlequin visited me for the first time. I was lying face-up on a sofa in the last floor of an insignificant building in London smoking. It was the time of night even clocks are too afraid to mark. Right in the middle, when everyone is too afraid of even coming out of their holes with their tail between their legs like fearsome animals.
The bell rang again and, full of curiosity, I lunged forward to the door with the cigarette between my red lips. The grey smoke followed me to the door as curious as I was. And there was when I saw him. The Harlequin, with black hair, grey-almost-white eyes painted in black, looked at me from his height. His lips where painted in the same color as his eyes. There were moments when the light didn't reach them, and it seemed ti me that they blended with the black of the make up and the night and the tenebrous thoughts. His figure was long and tall. His harlequin-like clothes fitted him perfectly, and I couldn't have imagined him differently. His hat seemed, at times, to be the same dark as the night, like they were the same.
I let him in. He walked in with elegance and without saying anything until he sat on the couch I was laying on seconds before. I sat on the left couch. He put his feet on the black painted metal table and looked at me right in the eyes. I didn't say anything. He neither.
We stayed a few minutes like that, trying to read us, until he spoke. "Do you remind me, Audric?". His voice resonated and bounced on the white boring walls until reaching my ears. I shook the ashes off my cigarette, I turned it off on the ashtray I bought on one of my trips to Mexico and rested my elbows on my knees, crossing my hands before my mouth. I tried to picture him without that black shit on his eyes ajd crimson lips, without the spine-chilling look on his eyes, dressed as a normal person would, but I couldn't. He was enveloped in mystery.
"No", I answered. The Harkequin smiled one of his spooky smiles. A feverish chill went from my head and to my feet. There was a weird sensation at the back of my brain, like a weird tickling. I tried to hold it between my hands before it got away, but I didn't manage. It was gone, an I forgot.
He hurled down at me a significative look, like warning me about something, taking at the same time a cigarette to his mouth. He winked at me, smiled creepily and got up. With a lot of elegance, he reached the door and left me alone with my thoughts.
The following night, the same weird tickling creeped up my back up to my prefrontal cortex of my brain and to my basal ganglia. They wanted to tell me something. Something important. But the sensation vanished in the air, and I forgot about it.
I looked at the skinless ceiling, through the ascending grey smoke and I got lost in the cigarettes in the dark. It was the same dark hour as yesterday, the same way all clocks stop and look at darkness, asking her if they're allowed to continue their hectic tic tac tic tac tictac tictac tictac tictactictactictactictac tictactictactictactictactictactictac silence~
The buzzing in my head stops, interrupted by the ring of the bell. I get up from one jump, I chase the door, I reach it like a lion that chases its food and open it violently, as if I was opening the abdomen of an animal to devour its inside.
TheHarlequin looked at me with his eyes made of vapor. I never knew if his eyes were really made of vapor. Probably yes. He smiled wicked at me. He sat down at the same place he sat the previous night, placing his feet on the table, just as the previous night. This time he did light the cigarette he took to his lips. He looked at me from the other side of everything. Y analyzed his movements.
He didn't move. He just smoked his cigarette. He looked at me in the same way I looked at him: he wanted to enter into the deepest part of my being, take time out of there and examine the little and insignificant me that hid under all that formality, all those bigotries of society, all that deceit, behind the eyes and all alone in his crimson blood, muscle and vein prison, so he could, then, throw him with violence like a savage through my throat and against my stomach repeatedly until that little me that lived in my heart ended up naked and with no secrets, lie he really actually is.
I looked away first. His eyes were just too wicked. I didn't want to looked at them, but at the same time I wanted to find out a lot of things. I was curious like a child that discovers what dying really means. What was it that hid under al, that make up he used as a shield? What did his memories accuse him of? What did the now accuse him of? What was it the future accused him of doing?
I looked at the ceiling again, ousting out the smoke of my second cigarette through my nose and my mouth into the monotonous false sky that protected me from reality. I imagined the sky full of stars hovering over my head. I inhaled the recently ousted venom back into my lungs and my veins, killing me softly. I guess a part of me wished to die, but was too coward to commit suicide.
The Harlequin gathered his mystery and his gothic elegance, reaching the door. He looked at me one last time before wickedly laughing and then whispering: "Sweet, sweet victory."

Packed With Picturesque Majesty, 'The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian' Fights Nobly For 'PG' RatingSubmitted by HollywoodChicago.com on May 16, 2008 - 1:32pm
CHICAGO – For the life of me, I couldn't exorcise it from my head. Amid all the splendor of such a picturesque film, this one question was like a gnat I couldn't swat: "Is this really rated 'PG'?" Indeed, "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian" is rated "PG". But that didn't come without great scrutiny and much editing.

You are the only one who listens please come back to Keck please I miss you. It is impossible to find a great doctor please come back..
Dr. Strand was amazing with my daughter and made her feel comfortable. She was the first one in 5 years to correctly diagnose and treat her. It has changed my daughters (and our family)life. THANKS so much!
There's nothing to dislike about Dr. Natalie Strand. She is not only very professional in every possible way as my doctor. In addition, Dr. Strand is a very caring, understanding, and loving doctor who should be looked upon by her colleagues as the prime example of what a doctor should be. May God bless you, doctor. You comfort me as another human being should be comforted, specially if your patient is in extreme pain constantly and for such a very long time now.
Excellent doctor. Super nice and helpful. Very professional.
Somebody told me she was out of town on some "race". i waited for hours. Where is she?
I had excellent care and would highly recommend Dr Strand!!!
An overall great experience. She is kind, easy to talk to, and really listens. She helped relieve pain that I have been struggling with for over 7 years. My procedure was quick and painless. I felt very safe and the entire experience with the Mayo Pain Clinic was wonderful.

Voters deciding congressional runoff in Louisiana
Associated Press
BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) – Voters are deciding which of Louisiana's congressmen is to be pushed out because of the state's shrinking U.S. House delegation.
Republicans Charles Boustany and Jeff Landry were forced into the same district when the state lost a congressional seat. U.S. Census data from 2010 showed the state's population declined, meaning lawmakers had to redraw political districts.
The two men were in a runoff election Saturday to determine who returns to Congress next year. The winner will represent the 3rd District covering southwest Louisiana and Acadiana.
The congressional race has been attack-heavy, since both men have run as conservative Republicans opposed to the policies of President Barack Obama and have had little philosophical ground in which to distinguish themselves.

Possible proof that all the world's newsmakers are on vacation this week.
Jokes one exec: 'Maybe Maddox and the twins can star in it.'
We can't be the only ones who had that reaction upon seeing the 'Times Magazine''s splashy 'Mad Men' cover story.
Abrams is developing a movie about a family whose designer turned their $8.5 million apartment into a real-life 'National Treasure.'
A.O. Scott and Manohla Dargis take stock of American cinema, now that Judd Apatow has remade Hollywood in his own image.
The serious Abu Ghraib documentary or the stoner Guantánamo comedy?
It's not often that you go into opening night already knowing that both critics for the 'Times' are already on record as disliking your show.
Clint Eastwood will win Best Picture, Michelle Trachtenburg will appear on Gossip Girl, and Ryan Adams will blog, hilariously.
The gifted actress' 1,000,000th uncomfortable interview.
No offense to the excellent rabble-rousers over at Gawker, but we'd answer that question with a chuckle and a dismissive wave of the hand.
The Times investigates "art anxiety," or, as we call it, "being chickenshit."
A masterpiece of tortured syntax.
That's quite a photo on the front page of the Times.
But is it really love?
They made him see Fool's Gold this time.
Just when we were getting all revved up with righteous indignation, guess who delivers a welcome blast of critical dismissal?
WHOA!! What the hell is that?!?
A.O. Scott, open your heart to the magic of bronzed and gleaming Hollywood stars!

I'm in love with my college. Every day I love this campus and this community more and more. The professors are incredible, and I have never been anywhere with such a good community feel. Yes, you will run into the hardcore closed minded Christians or the people who think they're opinion is fact, but the quality people you will meet make up for this.

I have really enjoyed my experience at Whitworth so far! As a freshman, Whitworth was really great with helping me adapt to the big changes that come with college. Specifically at Whitworth, I have really enjoyed the traditiation for freshmen and all the events that it contained. I really enjoyed the events on campus during weekends. I wish the price could be cheaper so that it was easier to enjoy such a great education at Whitworth. I have met great friends who would probably answer the same as me. Another improvement I think Whitworth could make is making sure that students are able to understand how to get a job once they have finished college. This might be an improvement with the advisers but I think students need help with stress and knowing we can find stable careers out of college that correspond with our majors.

Skip to comments.Accounts of exchanges: airline pilots and control towers around the world! (TOO FUNNY!)
Posted on 12/10/2004 2:44:08 PM PST by CHARLITE
Accounts of actual exchanges between airline pilots and control towers around the world.
Tower: "Delta 351, you have traffic at 10 o'clock, 6 miles!"
Delta 351: "Give us another hint! We have digital watches!"
"TWA 2341, for noise abatement turn right 45 Degrees."
"Centre, we are at 35,000 feet. How much noise can we make up here?"
"Sir, have you ever heard the noise a 747 makes when it hits a 727?"
============= =========================================
From an unknown aircraft waiting in a very long takeoff queue: "I'm f... ing bored!"
Ground Traffic Control: "Last aircraft transmitting, identify yourself immediately!"
Unknown aircraft: "I said I was f... ing bored, not f... ing stupid!"
O'Hare Approach Control to a 747: "United 329 heavy, your traffic is a Fokker, one o'clock, three miles, Eastbound."
United 329: "Approach, I've always wanted to say this... I've got the little Fokker in sight."
A student became lost during a solo cross-country flight.
While attempting to locate the aircraft on radar, ATC asked, "What was your last known position?"
Student: "When I was number one for takeoff."
A DC-10 had come in a little hot and thus had an exceedingly long roll out after touching down.
San Jose Tower Noted: "American 751, make a hard right turn at the end of the runway, if you are able. If you are not able, take the Guadeloupe exit off Highway 101, make a right at the lights and return to the airport."
There's a story about the military pilot calling for a priority landing because his single-engine jet fighter was running "a bit peaked."
Air Traffic Control told the fighter jock that he was number two, behind a B-52 that had one engine shut down.
"Ah," the fighter pilot remarked, "The dreaded seven-engine approach."
Taxiing down the tarmac, a DC-10 abruptly stopped, turned around and returned to the gate. After an hour-long wait, it finally took off.
A concerned passenger asked the flight attendant, "What, exactly, was the problem?"
"The pilot was bothered by a noise he heard in the engine," explained the flight attendant. "It took us a while to find a new pilot."
A Pan Am 727 flight waiting for start clearance in Munich overheard the following:
Lufthansa (in German): "Ground, what is our start clearance time?"
Ground (in English): "If you want an answer you must speak in English."
Lufthansa (in English): "I am a German, flying a German airplane, in
Germany. Why must I speak English?"
Unknown voice from another plane (in a beautiful British accent): "Because you lost the bloody war."
Tower: "Eastern 702, cleared for takeoff, contact Departure on frequency 124.7"
Eastern 702: "Tower, Eastern 702 switching to Departure. By the way, after we lifted off we saw some kind of dead animal on the far end of the runway."
Tower: "Continental 635, cleared for takeoff behind Eastern 702, contact
Departure on frequency 124.7. Did you copy that report from Eastern 702?"
Continental 635: "Continental 635, cleared for takeoff, roger; and yes, we copied Eastern... we've already notified our caterers."
One day the pilot of a Cherokee 180 was told by the tower to hold short of the active runway while a DC-8 landed. The DC-8 landed, rolled out, turned around, and taxied back past the Cherokee.
Some quick-witted comedian in the DC-8 crew got on the radio and said, "What a cute little plane. Did you make it all by yourself?"
The Cherokee pilot, not about to let the insult go by, came back with a real zinger: "I made it out of DC-8 parts. Another landing like yours and I'll have enough parts for another one."
The German air controllers at Frankfurt Airport are renowned as a short-tempered lot. They not only expect one to know one's gate parking location, but how to get there without any assistance from them.
So it was with some amusement that we (a Pan Am 747) listened to the following exchange between Frankfurt ground control and a British Airways 747, call sign Speedbird 206.
Speedbird 206: "Frankfurt, Speedbird 206 clear of active runway."
Ground: "Speedbird 206 Taxi to gate Alpha One-Seven."
The BA 747 pulled onto the main taxiway and slowed to a stop.
Ground: "Speedbird, do you not know where you are going?"
Speedbird 206: "Stand by, Ground, I'm looking up our gate location now."
Ground (with quite arrogant impatience): "Speedbird 206, have you not been to Frankfurt before?"
Speedbird 206 (coolly): "Yes, twice in 1944, but it was dark, -- And I didn't land."
While taxiing at London's Gatwick Airport, the crew of a US Air flight departing for Ft. Lauderdale made a wrong turn and came nose to nose with a United 727.
An irate female ground controller lashed out at the US Air crew, screaming:
"US Air 2771, where the hell are you going?! I told you to turn right onto Charlie taxiway! You turned right on Delta! Stop right there. I know it's difficult for you to tell the difference between C and D, but get it right!"
Continuing her rage to the embarrassed crew, she was now shouting hysterically: "God! Now you've screwed everything up! It'll take forever to sort this out! You stay right there and don't move till I tell you to! You can expect progressive taxi instructions in about half an hour, and I want you to go exactly where I tell you, when I tell you, and how I tell you! You got that, US Air 2771?"
"Yes, ma'am," the humbled crew responded.
Naturally, the ground control communications frequency fell terribly silent after the verbal bashing of US Air 2771. Nobody wanted to chance engaging the irate ground controller in her current state of mind. Tension in every cockpit out around Gatwick was definitely running high.
Just then an unknown pilot broke the silence and keyed his microphone,
asking: "Wasn't I married to you once?"
I read a story a long time ago about a pilot who would say to the tower in Biloxi "Guess who?" After this happened a few times, someone turned off the runway lights and said "Biloxi; guess where?"
Great Stuff!
Love them funny as heck... especially the dreaded 7 engine approach comment.
I was hoping someone would explain that one to the rest of us nonaviators...
We need a smile or two these days! I had a good laugh at this and have copied to send to a few friends so they, too, can enjoy it!
Once upon a time there was Braniff Airlines, and God only knows why they decided to paint their planes in pastels. Powder blue, blushing pink, all that kind of stuff. The Love Field airport people in Dallas had a good time. One Braniff pilot asked if he could make take-off and was told, "Yes, dear. Ta-ta!"
The other plane had 7 engines.
That one cracked me up. ;o)
They do have a tendency to forget that at times.
funny fly stuff:')
This is hilarious!
I'm gonna send it off to
hubby to pass along to
his old squadron buddies.
Thanks for the post, and
the laffs. ;o)
You're very welcome. ;o)
Actually, I should have said
7 working engines.
bump for later...
My guess is the pilot of the fighter jet was in either a single engine (f-16) or duel engine jet (f-15) if their engines are not working properly they become nothing more then a heavy piece of metal defying gravity and losing. where as the B-52 has eight engines. and if it is minus 1 it can still fly as long as it has fuel..
Basically the fighter pilot was saying... Oh yeah his emergency with 7 engines is going to be more dangerous then my semi function fighter... with a lot of tounge in cheek. :)
the fight jock always think they take precident over all other military aircraft... the are also notoriously stingy about how their aircraft are... I have seen pilots try to have there jets grounded due to the smallest problems, but that is for another thread...(btw to all fighter pilots out there.. I know you all are not like that, just the air force ones...) (j/k ... love all you guys thanks for the service.)
I am learning quite a bit this evening. All I knew about planes before was that I needed benadryl to fly without white knuckles. Thanks!
haha! Airline humor!
"TWA 2341, for noise abatement turn right 45 Degrees."
"Centre, we are at 35,000 feet. How much noise can we make up here?"
"Sir, have you ever heard the noise a 747 makes when it hits a 727?"
Too bad there are no examples of radio exchanges at any French airport.
LOL ping.
no prob... I love flying and all thing avaition...but I still get white knuckles at times too! :)
Serious? Ok, here goes....
A B52 has 8 engines (4 to a wing) and the fighter jet had only one. His brillantly sarcastic quip was a perfect example of a jet jockey ponting to the percieved arrogance of the Buffs' "bus driver" mentality. Declare an emergency when 1/8 of the Buffs engines are out versus his 100% problem with his only engine. This is pretty typical of the banter that goes back and forth between the differnt types of aircrews out there.
Hopefully, my flame retardant underwear will protect me from all of the "bus drivers" I just po'ed out there in freeperland....
I was an air traffic controller assigned to the Berlin Air Route Traffic Control Center for '84-'88. This is the facility that worked all traffic to and from Berlin through the 3 Berlin Air Corridors, mostly French, British, and US airliners. What a lot of people did not know was that there were about 15 Soviet and East German Mig bases located in the corridors. Their traffic would fly through the corridors without any coordination or control from us. Naturally, whenever we saw their traffic in the corridors we would issue it to our traffic. One night a buddy of mine was working the enroute sector and must have had a fairly new British pilot. Behind him was a Pan Am aircraft. A Mig decided he wanted to come up behind the British aircraft and see what he looked like. The controller kept giving the British pilot traffic on the Mig. Slowly, the Mig closed the distance behind the British aircraft so naturally the controller gave him that info. You could tell that the British pilot was getting a little nervous with this Mig flying a few miles directly behind him and finally asked the controller what he should do. Before the controller could say anything, the Pan Am pilot, who must have been from Texas, came on the frequency and said "Ya'll oughta just go back and flush your toilets!" It took a while to pick the controller up off the floor he was laughing so hard.
Oh, my gut is busting.... I've read some of this before. I believe it was in a book written by a "sled" driver (U-2 pilot).
I received this email recently
"Too bad there are no examples of radio exchanges at any French airport."
LOL! Just for giggles, we should make them speak German, too! ;)
Reminds me or private pilot jokes.
Explaining the parts of the plane to a newbie, "This is the prop. It is what keeps the pilot cool."
"Well, if it stops, you'll see the pilot start sweating profusely!"
ping for later
That was my favorite too. Some real funny ones.
Just then an unknown pilot broke the silence and keyed his microphone,
asking: "Wasn't I married to you once?"
BWAHAHAHAHAHA ...... love that one.
Chicago control tower: Lufthansa 727, you are cleared to take off please take off.
Captain of Lufthansa 727: My manifest does not agree with my passenger count; I will not depart until it does.
Another pilot from an American airline: Have you checked your ovens?
Lufthansa pilot: I refuse to take off until I receive an apology from the person who just called in.
Another airline pilot: This is Captain Smith from American Smith Airlines - I apologize.
The German pilot took off.
Does that really work? I have to fly after the first of the year and am terrified.
that is ok if you go read my post I flammed all the jet jocks... :)
Very funny stuff. I particularly liked the one regarding "sound abatement". Too funny!
Generally on all Air Force aircraft there are allowable leaks. Most maintenance sections usually fix any leak, even the ones within tolerance. The Navy has a different standard. They say if a system on the plane isn't leaking, then it's empty.
In any event, at one point, one of the other pilots asked for clearance to Route 78 to just drive the plane West because it would be faster. The tower responded, "He knows where he's going."
"I was a rear gunner for British Airways."
The response was, "Check your position on your chart and begin a controlled descent. Determine the elevation of the terrain beneath your position. When you reach an altitude approximately 100 feet above the terrain, turn your landing light on. If you don't like what you see, turn it off."
Oh, yeah. Gotta mark this one.
Very funny stuff ;-)
Yup... Us navy boys couldn't read gauges very well.. :)
Lufthansa (in German): "Ground, what is our start clearance time?"
Ground (in English): "If you want an answer you must speak in English."
Lufthansa (in English): "I am a German, flying a German airplane, in Germany. Why must I speak English?"
Unknown voice from another plane (in a beautiful British accent): "Because you lost the bloody war."
A "that said it all" ping (c8
B-52s have eight engines. One shutting down isn't exactly a life-threatening crisis.
We are going to fly from there a short hop to Edwards in Gulf Shores.
I am serious nervous.
My wife hops in the right seat with our Golden Retriever almost out of his sedative in the back.
I successfully call for taxi clearance, successfully call for take off clearance, and about three minutes into the flight:
I decided maybe I ought to contact clearance...with more than impatience, he said "Did you try to contact me?". "Yes sir, I must have some radio problems".
"You stay at this altitude!".
The moral of the story is that Pilots learn to tell fibs when they screw up.
Finally, when I got back home and told 'Mommy", I got serious training on clearances flying through Class B air space as in DFW Airport.

Federal funding becomes available for hemp research!
Check out all the latest news!
USDA issues letter of clarification on the principles of Industrial Hemp!
The Pennsylvania Hemp Industry Council seeks to accelerate the return of the Industrial Hemp Crop to the Pennsylvania agricultural landscape. To effectively achieve our aim of broad adoption of Industrial Hemp as a rotational crop by farmers, we will build a vital and effective collaboration of agencies, individuals and the general public.
Pennsylvania is a very strong agricultural state with over 63 thousand farms and almost 8 million acres of farm land. These farmers, the entire state, as well as the environment would benefit tremendously from the ability to grow industrial hemp. With our ideal climate and close proximity to major markets, we need to return this vital cash crop to our state.
Hemp can aid rural communities that need revitalization and opportunity by creating good paying jobs. Investing in research and development would build a bio-based economy that can provide solutions to real-world problems.
The United States annually imports hemp and hemp products at an estimated value of 500 million dollars. Hundreds of PA farmers and entrepreneurs have already expressed a desire to supply the national demand for hemp and its products not only to reap the economic benefits, but to create many products that can proudly be labeled "100% Made in the USA". With our rich agricultural heritage and our first class universities and research facilities, Pennsylvania should absolutely be a leader in this new industry.
We sincerely hope that we can count on you to join us in building this exciting new industry!

Artists turn Fond du Lac Ave. into their canvas
In 1842, Johnsons Park was a farm where escaped slave Caroline Quarlls stayed, marking the start of the Underground Railroad in the area. A century after that pocket of the city harbored slaves seeking freedom, and a generation after homes in the neighborhood were razed to make way for a freeway, dislocation remains an ongoing issue for many living and working in and around a swath of Fond du Lac Ave., according to the organizers of a community-driven, yearlong public art project.
The public art initiative along 20 blocks of Fond du Lac Ave., between N. 17th and 37th streets, is designed to help Milwaukeeans rediscover this once vital artery and its history while engaging with artists and each other. »Read Full Article
Bonfire on the Beach lights up lakefront with music
Make a list: You'll need a beach towel, a swimsuit, maybe some flip-flops and a party attitude for Bonfire on the Beach.
It may be the opening week of Summerfest, but this party kicks off at 6 p.m. Thursday at Bradford Beach with music from De La Buena. The band plays until 7:30 p.m. when DJ Kid Millions takes the stage, followed by Kane Place Records from 9 to 10 p.m. Bonfire pits will allow party-goers to see each other and keep them warm if the temperatures drop. »Read Full Article

Fond du Lac Ave. art project; flamenco guitar performance
Ties that bind
Fond du Lac Ave. ties Milwaukee's downtown to the northwest side of the city. And the In:Site temporary public art project to be on display along the avenue from 17th to 37th streets hopes to tie together the people of those neighborhoods and the rest of the city. "Art on Fond du Lac" features thought-provoking installations that put a spotlight on the area and the needs of the people who call it home. Included in the projects are a sculptural urban greenhouse by George Jones; a tribute to Mattiebelle Woods, the first lady of Milwaukee's black press; and a painting on the avenue itself (at its intersection with Locust St.) by Reggie Baylor. »Read Full Article

"A Classic of Science Fiction"
Although I noted a number of bad reviews, I downloaded this book solely based on its having won the 2005 Hugo Award. I have never been dissappointed by a Hugo or Nebula Award winning novel, and I am happy to say that this was one of the best. The question I address here is why there are so many mixed reviews, and I believe the answer lies in the slow start. The author spends a great deal of time (perhaps too much time) setting the stage, both in terms of character development and the ambience of the 1800s. I enjoyed it, but it is clear that many readers/listeners found it boring. But if you can make it through the first 8 hours, you will be rewarded with a wonderful experience. The reader is excellent, the characters have depth, the plot is sophisticated and while hard to follow, worth it. Many of the footnotes are enjoyable, and the reader handles them well and does not let them hinder the momentum. I strongly recommend this book. This novel, and American Gods, are the two best of the year for me.
"This is wonderful!"
This is a wonderful and complex story. It is absolutely unpredictable.
Childermass. In the most spoiler-free way of putting it, the story wouldn't happen without him.
Perfectly suitably British,
The History of English Magic.
It seems that halfway through the narrator forgets which characters he's doing and what their(the characters') motives are. The inflections in certain people change- I think this is mostly due to the large 'cast' of characters in the book....anyone would get lost! Overall, the narrator''s accent and tone fit the book perfectly, but you will be confused on who-is-who at points.Furthermore, this is one of the most wonderful and surprising books I've ever read and listened to. I find often in fiction I can 'predict' where a story will go, and I could never do that with this story- even up until the end! I highly recommend this book!
This is the longest audiobook I've listened to (of about 50-60 total), and it's also the only one I've listened to twice. I love it, and can't recommend it enough. The reader was soooo good, I can't imagine ever reading this on my own. I love the world that's built here, wholly original, with good magic and a good sense for what makes good "rules" of magic. I wish I could read myself into this world over and over, via sequel upon sequel. Doubt that's going to happen, but I can always re-read, right?
"The best thing I've heard!"
This book is a marvel--of language, of plot, of ingenuity, of style. Clarke's turns of phrase literally made me SMILE to myself during my commute. The story engaging, Prebble's performance just stunning. I was sad when it was all over. I hope Ms. Clarke is husbanding her energies for another tour de force such as this.
"Fair but Long"
This was fair story that takes time to unfold. The first one third of the book was a bit of a snore.
I will likely read more from this author because the universe that is created is interesting.
"Beautifully Written"
I thought it was a beautifully written book and I thought the narrator did a good job. I liked the footnotes and found them interesting. But, the story was way too long and kind of boring. I think it would have been a better book if it were shorter and tighter...if that makes sense.
"Beautiful writing and a bewitching story."
This novel came together so elegantly that every unexpected twist felt as if one should have seen it coming, and Clarke's prose was a delight to the ear. I especially enjoyed the digressions into the history of magic.
I purchased this book based on the description and reviews. I see it's won an award now, but the only way I can describe it is PAIN.
This is my genre, I love the variety and depth, but for some reason I just cannot listen to this book. I've tried several times. There hasn't been one time where I've found the story intriguing. Somehow it's annoying, tedious, and quickly into it, I dread the next chapter.
I don't normally pan books - to each her own - but I have such a strong reaction to this one and I have no idea why. Anyone else have such a negative feel for this?
"Unabridged too long"
I would suggest this as an abridged version. It became slow and ponderous about half way through and I caught myself thinking "Will this never end???" Characters are interesting and story is quite good but have not recommended it to my friends...
"But I digress..."
The story found within Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell is excellent (four to five stars), but all too often one is left with the notion that the book could have been better served with an editor and/or an abridgement. Listening to this story was like sitting next to the talkative stranger on a train, the one ever so eager to tell you of their adventures, but all too often jumps from here to there with needless distractions to the actual story they are attempting to convey. It's as if Susanna Clarke imagined that this was the only book that she might ever have published, so she included every little mind-wandering short-story she prosed during the grander pursuit of developing the actual tale of one Jonathan Strange and one Mr. Norell.
Too many times, I felt compelled to poke the narrator with a stick as to spur him back onto the path of the actual story--which was no fault of the narrator, but rather simply the pace and meandering of the written story. As narrators go, I was quite pleased with Simon Prebble performance.
While the story could have left me eager for a sequel, the plodding pace left me ever so reluctant.

Harbor Anchors Long Island's Northport
Village's Harbor and Downtown Are Big Draws for Home Buyers
With its harborfront location, pedestrian-friendly downtown and large stock of Victorian and Colonial houses, Long Island's Northport draws boaters, young families and even second-home buyers to its picturesque village.
"Everybody's just very relaxed—it's just kind of a laid-back community, the families all seem to know each other, and people have been there from generation to generation," says Nikki Sturges, of Daniel Gale Sotheby's International Realty. "It just really has a unique flair to it."
Northport, part of the town of Huntington in Suffolk County on the island's north shore, offers its roughly 7,500 residents an array of public and private beaches, golf courses and yacht clubs. The village park, at the end of Main Street and overlooking the picturesque Northport Harbor, is a popular gathering spot, hosting concerts on summer evenings and a farmers' market on Saturdays. The wide variety of independent shops and restaurants, as well as the John W. Engeman Theater, attracts residents and nonresidents to stroll downtown's quaint streets.
"It's not a drive-through town in any way—our Main Street ends right at the harbor, so people have the ability to walk to our restaurants and then go to the theater afterwards, so that's really nice," says Nancy Kelly Fauser, a broker with Coach Realtors. "It's one of the few places where boaters can pull up and moor their boats and get out and have a nice lunch…people will come here and treat it like a vacation destination."
Houses range from around $400,000 for modest Capes or ranches in the village, to $5 million or more for large waterfront mansions. Many houses boast waterfront locations or views, and though the village is prized by some buyers for its many historic homes, there are also some newer, spacious houses built on the former sites of smaller residences. The median listing price in Northport in April was $699,000, a 7% decrease from the same period in 2012, Zillow.com says.
The Long Island Rail Road's Northport station, in East Northport, offers a commute to Penn Station of around an hour and 15 minutes, and many also drive to the stations in Huntington or Greenlawn. Northport also offers easy access to Jericho Turnpike for those driving elsewhere on Long Island.
The Northport Power Station—opened in 1967 by the Long Island Lighting Co. and now owned by National Grid—and its four 600-foot-tall smokestacks can be seen for miles. Lawmakers and environmentalists have called for improvements at the facility, which was built before the Clean Air Act went into effect. A spokeswoman for National Grid said, "National Grid recently completed significant upgrades to each of the four Northport turbines, which has increased efficiencies and reduced emissions at the facility."
Settled by Europeans in the 1600s, the area was once known as the Great Cow Harbor because of the cattle pastures along the waterfront. The rural farming community shifted into a center for shipbuilding in the 19th century, and the village was incorporated as Northport in 1894. Today, thousands attend Northport's annual Cow Harbor Day, which features a parade, a 10-kilometer race and a festival along Main Street.
"Northport's always maintained its nostalgia and its charm," Ms. Fauser says. "We're really about our beaches and our sunsets."
Parks: Northport Village Park, at the end of Main Street, has lawns, playgrounds and a band shell where outdoor concerts are held, and frequently hosts community events. There is also a village dock with 15 boat slips. Local beaches include Steers Beach, near Steers Avenue, with a beach pavilion and kayak racks, and parking stickers are available for a small fee to village residents.
Schools: Northport is part of the Northport-East Northport Union Free School District, which has six elementary schools, two middle schools and a shared high school.
According to state data, 98% of students in the district who entered high school in 2008 met or exceeded state standards for proficiency in English four years later, compared with 82% statewide. In math, 98% of the 2008 group met or exceeded proficiency standards in 2010-2011, compared with 82% statewide, the data show.
Dining: Northport's several eateries include the Main Street Cafe, a casual restaurant, and Rockin Fish, a gastro pub serving burgers and seafood, also on Main Street. Maroni Cuisine, an eclectic bistro known for its meatballs, is on Woodbine Avenue.
Shopping: The village offers several independently owned shops, including the 37-year-old Window Shop Jewelers, on Main Street, and the Copenhagen Bakery, a Scandinavian-style bakery on Woodbine. Larger stores can be found on Jericho Turnpike, and mall shopping is available at the Walt Whitman Shops in Huntington Station. A weekly farmers' market is held Saturdays in the village park.
Entertainment: The John W. Engeman Theater, on Main Street, has a year-round schedule of plays and musicals, as well as a lounge and piano bar.
