A: Thanks.
B: No problem.

Can you define these popular missing words?
It is used as an insult because it was made common from the Jerky Boys phonecalls and movies, but its more of a condition. Sizzlechest is light curly chest hair that appears almost like smoke puffs rising off the chest, little spirily colums of hair. Usually found on assclowns.
Shut yer hole, sizzlechest!

додав Phil 09 Грудня 2003
A homosexual act performed between usually Greek or black men, which is traditionally noted for the mixture of semen in matted, generally dark chest hair. One homosexual partner will typically don an apron portraying a cartoon penis wearing a chief's hat and shouting from his urethra "kiss the cook!!" The submissive nubian then calls for a deisel load of seminal fluid which he then mixes nuturingly, to shape and condition his chest hair, conforming to the manner and style of today's "afro."
"Hey little buddy, where'd you get that sizzle chest?"
"Tobechukwu just delivered his man-payload...where'd you get yours, the Albanian boy we adopted?"

Mini Rest & Recreation

Kinzua Dam and Jake's Rocks
Originally constructed as a flood-control project, the dam created a lake covering more than 12,000 acres, and the area has become one of the nation's best flat water canoeing rivers. At Jake's Rocks, you don't need to look far before you find huge, sometimes geometric rocks just lying around -- exactly where the retreating glacier left them. Since the area was once under water, there are also many fossils and sea shells here. Amazing!
Where: 1205 Kinzua Road, Warren, PA 16365
Info: (814) 726-0661
Admission: Free

Travel time from Erie: one-and-a-half-plus hours (via US Route 6)
Bookamer Family Farm
We live in a small town, rural area, but rarely do my children see live farm animals up close. So a trip to the Bookamer Family Farm gives them a chance to see, not just cows but also alpacas, mini-donkeys, ducks and other animals and features of a working farm. Better still, touring this farm gives my children an eco-agri-tourism experience, meaning that all the animals work with the land, providing for the needs of the caretakers and eliminating waste. A tracked machine ride or hayride could be included -- just ask.
Where: 7868 Dutch Hill Road, Meadville, PA 16335

Hubbard House Underground Railroad Museum
I grew up about 45 minutes away from Nebraska City, Neb., and when we went to the Pendleton factory store, often we would tour nearby sites of the Underground Railroad. Seeing the rooms and conditions really impressed that piece of history into my mind. This museum will do the same for my children, I'm sure.

Current Co-op Students

- Undergraduate Co-op Programs
- Graduate Co-op Programs
- International Students
- Important Dates
- Work Study Sequences
- Fees
- Forms
- Co-op Videos (Co-op 101, Job Search)
The co-op program is structured so that study terms are alternated with paid, full-time work terms that are directly related to the co-op student's program of study. Students typically require an additional year of study to complete the co-op work terms while fulfilling the academic requirements of their specific program.
At the beginning of each work term students will be registered in their appropriate work term course. Registration in the course will trigger the work term fee of $390 to each students account. Each student will be notified when this has taken place. Students pay via Carleton Central as they would for any other academic course. All students on a co-op work term are required to write a work term report that is graded by the Co-op Faculty Advisor for their program. The work term report is a chance to reflect on experiences during the work term, and what was learned. Work term report guidelines can be found on cuLearn under the relevant work term course. Please note that work term courses on cuLearn will be open to students at the start of each term. Additional information about the co-op work term can be found via mySuccess along the following path: Co-op Program –> Co-op Resources –> When You Are at Work

You are listening to the radio and suddenly hear one of your poems being sung by someone. You have not given that person permission to use your poem. That person is illegally using your intellectual property. You have rights under the copyright laws to get satisfaction from that person, but you will need a lawyer to do that. The lawyer to contact is one who handles copyright law infringement and uses the appropriate the same legal practice management software and that heading should be found somewhere in his advertisement if you go online or in the yellow pages to connect to a lawyer and sue. Such a lawyer can file a complaint in the proper court and address the issue with the court or with the lawyer representing the party that has stolen your intellectual rights to your poem.
Taking someone's poetry or other writing that has been published is stealing, The extent of the theft has to be determined by a judge or by your lawyer and the thief, Those terms stealing and thief are actually correct when dealing with people who take other people's intellectual property and present it as their own, It is very important to note, however, that you should not try to contact the thief on your own but should use the services of a competent intellectual property lawyer, If you try to contact the thief of your poem, story or other intellectual work, that person might suggest that you have given him permission to use it.
The extent to which some thieves of intellectual property will go can only be surmised by someone who has not been in contact with thieves, When you feel that you can go ahead and seek satisfaction, your safest and only recourse is through the offices of a lawyer who accepts your case. That is the second part to getting satisfaction from intellectual property thieves, finding a lawyer to accept your case. Once you find a lawyer and begin working with him, you should follow his advice since he should accept your case only on contingency, that means that he will get paid only when you get financial satisfaction from the thief of your intellectual property.
If you are hesitant and feel that you will not be able to follow his advice then you should not accept his services, You can live knowing that someone has violated your intellectual property much easier than trying to live while in court fighting for a case that has left you confused.

Yo La Tengo swings from calm to full-on rocking
Yo La Tengo's show at Turner Hall on Saturday showed that in music, there are different types of Zen.
The Hoboken, N.J.-based indie rock darling began a nine-song opening acoustic set with a meditative variation of "Ohm," the first track off "Fade," its lovely and relaxed 13th full-length studio album released in January. Georgia Hubley gently tapped the drums with brushes, her husband Ira Kaplan glided the song toward a subdued Middle Eastern-influenced guitar jam, and the couple along with primary bassist James McNew sang sweetly, quietly, together. »Read Full Article

Milwaukee Rep's 'Clybourne Park' an electrifying production
Because "Clybourne Park" is so good and because it explores issues that aren't going away, it's easy to agree with Mark Clements' prediction - made in his director's notes for the new Milwaukee Repertory Theater production - that Bruce Norris' play is built to last.
It's much harder to imagine watching the inevitable revival, 10 or 20 years from now, without hearkening back to the electrifying performance I saw Friday night, in which Clements' all-star cast gave "Clybourne" the treatment it deserves. »Read Full Article(1)

Orna Eilon: Connecting for cultural continuity
For thousands of years, Jews have lived as minority populations in various regions worldwide, surviving largely through their strong commitment to community.
Orna Eilon is continuing that tradition through tireless work as the unpaid CEO of the MATI Israeli Community Center, in the West San Fernando Valley, helping Israelis stay connected to their faith, their roots and their traditions, as well as to Israel, Israeli culture and the Hebrew language.
MATI, a Hebrew acronym for Israeli Cultural Center, was formed four years ago by Eilon and about a dozen other Israeli mothers, who worried that their own children, and the rest of the younger generation, were losing their identification with Israel and Judaism.
"What Israelis teach their kids at home is not enough," said Eilon, who reaches out to Israelis in Southern California who cannot afford to pay tuition for Jewish day schools or religious schools. Since most Israelis don't have extended families here and don't join synagogues in large numbers, many of the younger generation remain unaffiliated, nonpracticing and disengaged as Jews, often assimilating at a rate even faster than other American Jews.
Story continues after the video.
Eilon saw this happening in her own home with her three children. And when she realized how many other Israeli families were struggling with the same issue, she saw the urgency for a group like MATI.
Now, in addition to her work as a real estate broker and raising her kids, she has helped MATI create a community for multiple generations of Israelis by generating connections between families and various other organizations.
"The feedback has been amazing," said Eilon, who described events ranging from intimate family hikes to last year's Yom HaZikaron (day of remembrance for Israeli soldiers) ceremony, which drew 700 attendees. "It's become so clear how much this was needed in the community."
MATI has also co-sponsored events with the Israeli Leadership Council, The Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles, the Israeli Scouts, various synagogues and a host of other organizations. The result is the emergence of an organized Israeli community in Southern California, of which Eilon is one of the most dedicated and passionate leaders.
On the grand level, Eilon's work is about the continuation of a culture. On the day-to-day level, Eilon said, it's about individuals, like an elderly Israeli who is completely alone coming to light a Chanukah candle amid a large, boisterous group of people who speak the same language, literally and figuratively.
"Now we feel like a community."

Set against the action-packed world of mixed martial arts, Never Back Down is the story of Jake Tyler (Sean Faris), a tough kid with a big heart, who has to learn that in life, everyone has their fight. Orlando, Florida may as well be the moon for Iowa-native Jake with its ten-million dollar mansions set ten feet apart. The privileged teenagers of this American Dream on steroids want for nothing; they zoom around upscale neighborhoods in expensive cars, wearing bikinis and flip-flops, affecting the jaded ennui of kids with too much, too soon. Life is one big party for them. Jake was a star athlete on the football team back home, but in this new city he is an outsider. Considered "the new kid" with his taciturn attitude and lumberjack attire, Jake's not winning friends anytime soon, and that's OK with him. Quiet and withdrawn, he's silently suffering from the recent loss of his father. It's not long, however, before Jake's troubled past re-emerges when a clip of a spectacular football-field fist fight from Iowa is forwarded around his new school. Things take a turn when he meets Baja (Amber Heard) in class. She's beautiful—and smarter than she lets on. At her invitation, Jake goes to a party where he is unwittingly pulled into a fight with a bully named Ryan McCarthy (Cam Gigandet). He is defeated and humiliated in the fight and subsequently wary of everyone, especially Baja, who may have set him up. But it's Jake's enthusiastic, good-hearted classmate Max (Evan Peters), who sees a champion in Jake. He tells Jake about the sport known as mixed martial arts (MMA) and invites him to meet with his coach, Jean Roqua (Djimon Hounsou). It is immediately apparent to Jake that MMA is not street fighting, but rather an art form he's determined to master. Roqua will take Jake under his wing, but it is up to Jake to find the patience, discipline and motivation to succeed. For Jake, there is much more at stake than mere victory. His decision will not just settle a score; it will define who he is. Summit Entertainment's Never Back Down stars Sean Faris, Djimon Hounsou, Amber Heard, Cam Gigandet and Evan Peters. The action drama is directed by Jeff Wadlow from a script by Chris Hauty. The producers are Craig Baumgarten and David Zelon with Bill Bannerman serving as co-producer. Lukas Ettlin is the director of photography. Academy Award nominee Ida Random is the production designer. Judy Ruskin Howell is the costume designer, and Victor Du Bois and Debra Weinfeld are the film editors.

Wii U
fusionsamurai 3 years ago#1
Lets be realistic, and I know that is rare. Who would spend $350 for a console just for smash?Everyone and their grandma has a 3ds, so why put out $350 for a Wii u?
While you COULD say "It has different stages", but to casuals it doesn't matter. Casuals are who really matter, and when they already have one system they would rather get the 3DS version.
Even if people don't have a 3ds and are waiting for smash it is cheaper to buy a 3ds and smash. People who are "true fans" will buy both, of course.
But this game needs to sell, and the 3ds is the better platform. The Wii u has two big(ER) series on it being pikmen and NSMBU, neither of which are system sellers. Why buy a console with no games when you can get a 3ds and-
Monster hunter
Kid icarus
Luigis mansion
Mario kart 7
3D land
Animal crossing
Paper mario
Fire emblem
Star fox 64 3D.
Explain to me again why smash bros U will sell a lot of consoles?
Super Smash Bros. 4
Mario Kart 8
Monolith Soft's X
LoZ: WW HD
Pikmin 3
Watch Dogs
Monster Hunter U
Assassin's Creed 4
Wonderful 101
Bayonetta 2
Waiting for: Pokemon X and Y, Monolith Soft's X, Smash Bros. 4, Mario Kart 8, Watch Dogs, Dark Souls 2

You may be right, tc.
I predict people will opt to get the 3DS version over the Wii U version.

Because MAYBE the Wii U version will release first and a person who doesn't know much about video games might think its not for 3DS.

The post below me is false.
Smash Bros is a system seller, to claim it's not is like trying to claim Halo isn't a system seller.

fusionsamurai posted...
"A lot" of consoles? I think saying that it will sell consoles is different than saying it will sell "a lot" of them.
Personally I think MK8 is the game that is going to sell the system to more people than Smash Bros will.
That being said, the hype built around and community for SSB is huge and with the event that was held at EVO it could have brought a lot more people into it and in turn a lot of people hyped to get the system version in general, as if it does maybe possibly go to evo next year or the year after it will be that game that gets the most hype and not a handheld version of it.
I do agree that making it for 2 platforms is a bit silly when as you said "everyone and their grandma'" own a 3DS (except for me till the new Pokemon comes out). So I can totally see the argument of "Why not buy it on a system you own instead of the alternative."
Though some could say that playing it on the console could offer up a different feel, and the controllers could just be more comfortable than the 3DS (which I can't play for longer than 2 hours without getting all crampy on games like Animal Crossing - I use my roomates to play :D).
I don't know if the only difference will be graphics and stages either or if other things will eventually be available like DLC (but I doubt it).
I know I bought the system preemptively at launch for a few games, SSB was one of them, so it already sold the system to me without even being a launch game.
I do feel it will be a "system seller" but not THE "system seller". I think MK8 reserves that titles and will hopefully deserve it.
Since this game rely on micro transaction when people leave for mop this game will be I survive. - MageGuyInfinity

Neither are most of the ones you listed for the 3DS. Total bias. I like my 3DS but the announced games for the Wii U alone are more exciting to me than all the games the 3DS has to offer.

We found the listing by looking for places advertised as close to Hearst Castle. This b&b is over an hour away (67 miles). Although the place was lovely, it was much further than we wanted to be for the purpose of our visit.

Thank you for your kind review. First of all we want all our guests experience to exceed their expectations, we are sorry that the distance to Hearst Castle was not made clear to you prior to your stay. Our Hearst Castle Package is our most popular package and we are supporting members of the historic site, but it is true we are about an hour drive door-to-door. Most of our guests are aware of this and make the most of the beautiful drive along the coast and make a day of it, possibly stopping at Cambria and the Elephant Seal Reserve. Once again sorry the distance was not clear to you. We will check our website and other information available to make sure it is accurate. Thanks.

I believe this is our 7 th stay. This time for 3 nights. (Too short) We have been very impressed with Kaleidscpoe for every stay. We sent our middle daughter here for her honey moon and they loved it so much they came for their anniversary as well. We have had all three daughters stay with us when they could. This is our #1 favorite place to get away with so much to do within an hour to great places. Thank you!!

Stayed at Kaleidoscope during a weekend golf trip. The courses I played were within 10 minutes of the B&B, whereas any hotel I could find would have been a 30+ minute drive! Was a great place in a perfect spot!

The garden and rooms at the Kaleidoscope Inn & Gardens are truly delightful. I stayed in the Carriage House which has it's own private garden area as well. The only thing I would caution is that my reservation made through bedandbreakfast.com had trouble getting through to the owners. I would recommend calling ahead of time to confirm the reservation. Even though that happened, the owner was awesome and upgraded my room for the inconvenience. The breakfast in the morning was top-notch and eating it in the garden is highly recommended. Loved every minute of staying here and I recommend it to anyone traveling in California.

My wife and I had our wedding at the Kolidescope the night before the wedding she and her friend dtayed in the carriage room and said it was wonderful the night of our wedding we stayed in the same room I found it very comfortable the staff was excellent and very friendly ... For our wedding Carolyn was very helpful she set us up with the central coast dream team of wedding services the staff at the Kolidescope went above and beyond for our wedding day celebration everything was beautiful I couldn't of asked for anything better

Staff was friendly and helpful, rooms were clean. But the house is in a neighborhood hood with several noisy dogs. They weren't noisy at night, it was very quiet, but during the day was another story. Breakfast the first day was great, the second day I couldn't even eat it (prepared by a different person). This is a cute little house and we enjoyed our stay, but the property needs some work/upkeep, and the noisy dogs really should be reported.

Room was very clean,but was in need of a handy man. Paint needed to be touched up, closet door would not stay closed(had to stuff paper under it), had to pull bedroom door firmly to make sure it would stay close. Shower was in bathroom at top floor of house, that has a slanted roof. Husband & son had to hold head sideways to get under water. When it came time for the wedding, the staff turned the backyard into a wonderful venue. We ate 2 breakfast there, and they were good, but my men would have liked to have meat with their meal. At night there was homemade fudge that was delicious.

Posted on 01/05/2012 10:44:53 PM PST by Olog-hai
China's biggest airlines warned on Thursday they will refuse to pay a new EU tax aimed at cutting carbon emissions.
Beijing said it has deep concerns over the EU's Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), which came into force on New year's Day and demands all airlines pay a green duty to offset carbon emissions.
"China opposes the European Union's unilateral legislation. China has expressed to the EU our deep concern and opposition many times on a bilateral level," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei said.
"The CATA, on behalf of Chinese airlines, is strongly against the EU's improper practice of unilaterally forcing international airlines into its ETS," CATA spokesman Cai Haibo said.
"If governments like the US, China and Russia can launch strong and forceful retaliatory measures, this will form enormous pressure and we hope could make the EU to change its mind."
The European Commission has assessed the impact on air fares at between 2 to 12 per passenger.
But the Chinese airlines' association said if its members agreed to pay the charge, it will cost them £79 million in the first year alone with estimated costs tripling by 2020.

What's Al Gore going to do now? He really needed that money to buy Tipper a pony.
Hey... China gets one right.
I'm still trying to figure out how paying money "offsets" carbon in the atmosphere especially when it already comprimises a zero point zero percentage such as CO2 which only makes up 0.04%. If they "offset" it anymore to 0.02% plants start dying then all life except for Al Gore because he is a God. What do they do, send up trillions of carbon eating nanobots? Do they join togther and make a salute sign and say "Reporting for duty" like John Kerry before they start?
Those EUnuchs have not been trying to strongarm US airlines into paying their stupid tax, have they?
Of course they have - thier highest court even ruled recently that the airlines miust comply ....
Yes they have. The EU's top court, the so-called "Court of Justice" ruled against the USA already (back before Christmas) in a suit brought to stop the airline carbon tax.
Some Republican's in Congress should show as much spine.
Tipper is no longer a going concern of his, unless a pony was part of the divorce settlement.
Apparently the airlines of a Communist nation are now one of the few willing to say no to the corrupt alliance of Big Enviro and Big Government. Incredible.
China will fight this Euro tax scam and win. Meanwhile, Delta will charge its passengers more per ticket to pay it. No one should fly Delta.
China could refuse to fly to Briton and refuse flights from Briton. Problem solved for now.
'China could refuse to fly to Briton and refuse flights from Briton. Problem solved for now.'
Um, where is "Briton" and what has it got to do with this story?
Just woke up. Britain or UK take your pick.
After you shoot two or three down they'll pay!
I don't think that China will put up with the NWO banks telling them what to do. China is building to be much more agressive. World War is coming soon.
Just wondered why you focused on Britain and not the other 26 EU countries really?
Hopefully we'll soon be able to describe the UK as an ex-EU country soon! :D
The rest of the world—like China, should tell the EU to shove their tax up their rectum.
How many battalions and how many surface to air missiles are commanded by this EU?
Did they pick up a few leftover Stingers from Libya?
Just another cash grab to feed their bureaucracy.
Im still trying to figure out how paying money offsets carbon
It is called tribute.
has nothing to do with the environment.
"Just wondered why you focused on Britain and not the other 26 EU countries really?"
Because your "Iron Lady" wanted to promote more nuclear power and cut the political power of the coal union (I'm not a union guy) and started dishing out your hard earn tax money to "scientist" to find the "link" between CO2, mam and global warming.
Hopefully well soon be able to describe the UK as an ex-EU country soon! :D
I hope you do. Your Progressive Elites will suck ever penny out of you and you will be become true SURFS to the "Rent Seekers".

Most timesaving "secrets" are the best practices you've been hearing about since the advent of paper clips. The trick is, you have to try them out to discover whether they match your work style. And then you have to stick with them to gain the benefits. Here are three timesaving secrets recommended by administrative professionals:
Best-Practices Leadership
A leader in an organization can't do everyone's job. Instead of micromanaging, strong leaders use organizational leadership to coordinate, communicate, motivate and delegate among employees and team members. For comprehensive organizational effectiveness, each individual needs to be seen as a contributor, with the leader at the helm.
Most importantly, best-practices leadership involves keeping employees motivated throughout the process, adapting your scope or strategy as necessary, and developing an effective communication strategy.
Some people never make it to the other side because they're more successful at being doers. This is a crucial point in determining if you're going to move up the ranks.
Browse our articles, tools and advice on best-practices leadership.
In tough economic times, organizations must focus on getting the highest possible return on their workforce investment. Here are six ways managers can help employees maximize their productivity. Guess what: These are also among the best ways to improve retention. Feel free to share these tips with managers throughout your organization.
3M is indisputably one of the world's most innovative companies. How does it keep churning out smart products? Fred J. Palensky, 3M's chief technology officer, points out three ways:
"The only thing that's worse than 'bad' is 'boring,'" critiques Sydney Brenner, a founder of molecular biology who shared a Nobel Prize for his achievements in 2002. At age 84, he keeps traveling the world, opening up new fields of research and stimulating ideas. Here's how.
Thirty years ago, Epcot opened, and Walt Disney Co. completed its original vision of the Disney theme park. Then its creative design and development team asked: Now what? Where could the company go next? To find the answer, Disney leadership called in Ron Alexander, a therapist and meditation teacher.

What if, instead of launching business profiles (as they plan to), they make Google+ a network for individuals ONLY.
After all, most users are a bit jaded and burnt out... I don't want an online relationship with Chipotle, Sony, or Netflix.
If these companies want to promote their products to you and keep you informed, then great, but they'd have to do so using individuals.
For example, if Apple has a new MacBook, Steve Jobs would use his personal account to let you know about it. This creates a much more personal bond between brand and consumer, I'd think, and also allows for greater accountability.

Loved it - Our guide was great. Feeding the Kangaroos on the way up was incredibly cool. The first winery was beautiful - our host was funny and extremely knowledgeable and the wine was great. The second winery was a bit more corporate meets Liberace with crystal chandeliers everywhere and a helipad - not my favorite - but the wine was good and we had a fun lunch there. Net net a great day that I would happily recommend. And the small group format is certainly the way to go.
Excellent tour with great guide and generous wine tastings. Well worth it.
Our tour guide, Scott, was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of great information about Hunter Valley and the wineries we were visiting, as well as information about Australia. The day was delightful!
This tour was a great tour for a couple of reasons. I now know I prefer small group tours, the guide was very pleasant to be with. The wineries we visited were hospitable and generous with their wine selections. Lunch was included. We ate at Leogate Winery and it was exceptional. Highly recommend!
Paul was an amazing guide!! He was extremely knowledgeable and moved us through the activities in a way that allowed us just enough time at each spot without feeling rushed. It was wonderful to be able to see the animals/reptiles at the park just as it was opening, and the wine tastings were all enjoyable. Thank you, Paul!
As expected, knowledgeable guide, great wine and scenery!!
We really enjoyed this tour. It was a great introduction to Australia after arriving the day before. Not too exhausting and we saw a couple of wild kangaroos at the wine vineyard.
This tour was enjoyable and well worth the cost. Our tour guide was great, giving us a lot of information about the area, the wines were good and the wilderness park was fun.
Outstanding small group allowing to listen and ask questions along the way...Visited two wineries and had a fantastic lunch at a private resort.
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and would highly recommend it to others.
Great guide, beautiful countryside
Excellent tour, Peter was great and looked after us very well. I would recommend this trip.
It was a great way to see the wine country and also the animals and reptiles.
Hunter Valley was superb and the group of 7 was just the right size. Not only did we learn about wine and wildlife but it was a great exposure to how beautiful that part of Australia was.
Our guide, Lindsay, was knowledgeable and courteous and paced the trip perfectly.
If you don't have much time, as we did, this tour is a great use of it.
Totally great and Steve was a terrific guide. The Mount View winnery was excellent. stay tuned for my trip advisor review.
Wine became our coffee during this day but I can't help to say that I loved it! Wines here were really great and the lunch we had was awesome.
Lucy United Kingdom
We were the only two people on the tour so had a private tour.
The visit to the animal sanctuary was amazing. We were brought a baby alligator to touch and a koala - just for our tour. We were also given tea and cake.
On to the Hunter valley again we were the only two in the small winery. At Mount View we ate cheese and crackers and sampled some amazing wines. The girl even gave us wines not usually for tasting as there was only two of us. No pressure to buy. But we did and found it was very reasonably priced. 15 a bottle upwards.
The second tour was a larger winery which was also very quite we went in August on a weekday - Bimbagim. The guy behind the bar was funny and friendly. It did not feel awkward that there was only the two of us. He even took some photographs for us with the back drop of the Hunter Valley.
We then travelled for our lunch about 1pm feeling very full of wine. The place for lunch is also a brewery. The beers and ciders were good. We also got a large glass of red and white table wine on the table each.
The food was delicious.
I do have one thing that could have been improved. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and very, very chatty the whole journey however it would have been nice if we could have eaten our lunch as a couple. As this was a bit awkward especially since he was sharing our food.
The trip was great! Well organized and fun-
WE had a great time on this tour. Our guide, Rafael, was friendly, informative, and helpful. He really made this tour very special We enjoyed the time at the reptile park....enjoyed the animals very much, especially the kangaroos!
Each winery had their own high points.....the tastings were delicious....the servers were generous with their time and tastings.
We were very impressed with the entire day. Thank you so much!!
This tour is for anyone who would like information on wine grown in Hunter Valley. I had never been to a wine tasting. Our host was amazingly knowledgable and polite. He drove us to a winery where we learned so much about wine! The animals and the wine and the food were absolutely perfect!
Comfortable van, on time schedule , very funny and knowledgeable guide. On the way back to Sydney, 2:30 hours on the road is a killer because of trAffic. Overall very good.
The Australia Reptile Park was a really special experience...and they had many animals other than reptiles too! The koala and kangaroos were adorable and friendly. The spider exhibit was also very cool. The winery tours were great we went to one boutique winery and one larger winery and lunch was excellent. I highly recommend this tour! Excellent value for the price.
Tyler was outstanding and gave us the perfect amount of attention and time to do each wine tasting and also very friendly. He gave us much info about Australia that we could never have gained on our own. Plus, being from the U.S., we did not feel comfortable driving in Australia. The wildlife park was a definite highlight of our whole trip and will not be forgotten! Wine tasting was substantial with a great lunch at the end. We just wish we could buy these wines here in the states!
I loved the freindly staff at Mount Veiw, the wines were delicous and the views were amazing. I enjoyed visiting the reptile park, But I must say, the thing that made this tour the best was our super friendly, smart and charming tour guide, Rapheal Pall. He was the absolute best!!
This tour was amazing!

Show us the money--and the Afghan peace
- Details
- Posted on 14 April 2006
- by Alexis Priddy
[caption id="attachment_366" align="alignnone" width="400" caption="Bpeace volunteers and Associates; Rian Harris from the U.S. Embassy on far left"][/caption]
Today was the first time since we arrived in Kabul that we saw our Fast Runners as a group. Hugs and kisses flew. We started asking the Associates, "What's new? What's happened since we last caught up?" To hear all the progress in one sitting made the Bpeacers feel terrific.
[caption id="attachment_373" align="alignnone" width="422" caption="Toni, Laila and Palwasha with her new school colors"][/caption]
Marking the first milestone of many
We all celebrated the Fast Runners' completion of their first year of their three-year Bpeace program with a "pin ceremony," attended by Rian Harris from the U.S. Embassy. The final pinning was Palwasha; she was also presented with an acceptance letter to Bucknell University for a full four-year scholarship facilitated by her mentors, Jim Reitzig and Tara Fabiano. It was a very emotional moment for many of us, tears coming to our eyes even as we write this.
Ray is shown the money
Scooting out of the peace discussion, Ray donned his best blue blazer and tie and went calling on banks in order to assess their interest in making loans to our Fast Runners. Kirsten Weiss of Shorebank, who we only met for the first time on Wednesday night, was good enough to accompany Ray on his rounds. Today's banker said he can offer loans from $7,000 up to $250,000 and a very competitive interest rate, even without Bpeace guaranteeing a part of the loan. Our Fast Runners will have to qualify to the bank standards. Ray "show me the money" Maloney has several more appointments coming up this week.
The Fast Runners figure out how to find the money on their own
The Fast Runners viewed the first of the training videos today—"How to Write a Business Plan," produced by Bpeacers Yasmin Ibrahim and Karine Baczynski. The videos are not a substitute for in-personal training and advice from Bpeace; instead, they provide a knowledge base, while Laila, Rosemary and the mentors provide the "consulting" to help the entrepreneurs get the specific assist they need.
Toni then showed the Associates a cool Excel spreadsheet tool that Yasmin developed. The Excel tool accompanies the "How to Track Your Money" workbook developed by Bpeacer Sabra Richardson. Bpeace Fast Runner Kamela and Toni walked the Associates through the workbook and tool. And to finally round out the money portion of the day, Toni sent the Fast Runners home with a workbook to read, "How to Finance Your Business," developed by Marla and Bpeacer Liza Pullman. It takes the Fast Runners step-by-step through the process of applying for a loan. Kamela, who has her own consulting and training business, was most impressed by the training materials and wants to use them in her work with Afghans in several provinces.
The liveliest part of the day was when Toni asked the Associates to "bet" on how many new jobs they would create in the next year. Amazingly, the Associates "bid" between 8 and 20 jobs each.
As the first day of training closed, Toni and Rosemary reviewed products to pass onto the Dubai Women's college. Hanifa Skar Ali brought blockbuster handbags we hadn't seen before, and scarves with a unique ribbon embroidery design that Rosemary thought would be a big seller in the right Kabul market.
An evening treat for the team was dinner and ice cream with Rian Harris of the U.S. Embassy, whose knowledge of business in Afghanistan both informed and entertained us. Yes, there is cotton being produced here. All the cashmere is washed in Herat and taken out of the country. And silk is making a comeback as many NGOs bring silkworm larva to farmers with mulberry trees.

His most famous novel, speaking of hands, is Give + Take, essentially a touring jazz pianist who in his off-hours robs jewels and riches and just as swiftly and anonymously bestows the deftly-gotten gains to a worthy charity.

Kris Saknussemm's new novel of the road and redemption, Reverend America, is centered on the travels and travails of a retired child evangelist albino orphan named Casper (known in his healing days as Reverend America) and his wanderings as guardian angel and inadvertent and occasional avenger. I'd become aware of Kris' work via his first novel, Zanesville, his subsequent bizarre-noir novel Private Midnight, and his exuberant alt-historical Enigmatic Pilot. We'd become Facebook friends where I found him to be equally knowledgeable and perhaps even more impassioned about things musical more than literary. So when he asked if I would contribute some original work to fill out a CD to accompany the release of Reverend America (I'd not written anything original since high school, being presently and for decades consumed either by interpretations classical or reimaginings on the non-classical side), and with his own keen idea of how music might intersect his prose, I told him I'd have to be an idiot to NOT know how to write something for him.
POPMATTERS SPONSOR—Open Road Media announces the publication of Celebrity, Inc.: How Famous People Make Money by e-original author Jo Piazza available in both print and digital editions.
What does a celebrity baby picture have in common with a drug deal? Why is Kim Kardashian ten times richer than Paris Hilton? What's an Oscar really worth? And why does Charlie Sheen keep "winning"? Jo Piazza, a former gossip columnist for the New York Daily News and a seasoned journalist currently writing for the Wall Street Journal, The Huffington Post and Fox News, not only brings her unique expertise and personal economics background to Celebrity, Inc.: How Famous People Make Money, but she has obtained access to the men and women who ensure famous people will make 40 times the average American's salary in a single year. Piazza not only brings the gossip, but the business expertise in her 12 unique chapters, each based on the format of a business school case study (peppered with hilarity and wit, obviously) that examine how celebrity functions as a business model.

Radical's forthcoming illustrated novel, Jake the Dreaming will be available for the iPad (and iPhone) around December 2011.

It's also the story of technological shifts inscribing a new cultural story. And, speculating on 40 years down the line, it seems to be a story that will not need a second act.

This past week, I watched a basketball game that could only be defined as "ugly". Despite the efforts of both teams to lose the game, one team eventually had to win on the scoreboard. Sure enough, the team with a winning record prevailed despite multiple turnovers and missed free throws in the final minutes. The losing team continued its winless season, and as I spoke to their despondent head coach after the game, I was again reminded of the hard work it takes to build a winning program. He…Continue

|Stage linguistico a Londra marzo 2012
Nel mese di marzo 2012 le classi 4C Linguistico, 4APNI, 3G e 4G hanno effettuato un fantastico STAGE LINGUISTICO a Londra.
Ecco la testimonianza di alcuni studenti...... (Vedi le foto)
If you're looking for an unforgettable experience in a city that can offer you thousands of
I had the chance to go on a study-vacation there with my class this year and even though that week went by too fast I really think it was a very useful experience.
It was not the English course, which took place in a different museum every morning, that was the main reason for improving my English, but rather the time that I spent talking with my host family. They were kind and willing to help me and luckily I had no difficulties whatsoever.
In the afternoon, after the course, we got all back together and walked through the city streets; we tried
Anyway a month probably wouldn't be enough to enjoy everything that this wonderful city has to offer, so I think kthat this study-vacation was more than satisfying, above all because it gave us the chance to be real Londoners for one week.
Bonfiglioli Linda 4C
Our study vacation in London lasted almost a week, from the 11th to the 17th of March.
At the beginning, I was agitated and frightened, since I didn't know what to expect, but I was enthusiastic too. I actually had already been in London when I was eight years old and last summer too, and I
When we first arrived at the meeting-point to meet our host families, Linda and I saw an apparently weird woman. She was Indian and was wearing bright and colourful clothes, typical of her original country. Her name was Rashida and she friendly welcomed us.
At first, we were quite sceptical, but when we arrived at our new home we immediately changed our minds. The house was very big and comfortable, and also our room was nice.
Rashida introduced us to her whole family, which consisted of her husband, two sons and daughter. They were all so kind! They continuously spoke with us and they always said "Help yourself!" with a smile on their face, which made us feel as if we were at home.
Rashida was great. One evening, while eating, we had an interesting conversation which really impressed me: she told us that she hosted students not for money reasons, but with her heart. She was totally
Another particular feature of our journey was that every morning we had lessons in London's museums. Our teacher was Lisa, a simple and sweet girl, who surely contributed to improve my vacation. She had a
In conclusion, I think that this was one of the best experiences of my life. I learned how to take care of myself without my parents, I visited one of the most important cities in the world and I met great people. Apart from the historical notions and the monuments, which were obviously fabulous and very impressive, I learned above all how to live in a foreign country, with foreign habits and foreign people. And I think that this is the most important thing ever.
Martina 4c
London has always been a dream for me and finally twenty days ago became a reality. It was absolutely
First of all, it was the first time that I had travelled by plane and the feelings I had above the
The most exciting thing was visiting the city I've always loved, with all the buildings and the atmosphere that only London has. I think it's a magical place. Every place you go gives you the feeling that you are in a different city; the gothic area of Westminster Abbey, Westminster Palace and the Big Ben, the Shakespearian part with the Globe and its church,and the technological area, like Piccadilly Circus to name a few. Standing on the bridge, between the London Eye and the Big Ben: I was struck by the realization that I was really in London, that it was all true.
The family where I lived that week was nice at first, but then they weren't always so kind and we didn't
Certainly this was a very useful experience because I lived for a week with people I didn't know and I

Thomas brothers claim City Rec Junior Tennis titles
Kyle Thomas beat his younger brother, Alec, to win the boys 18 singles championship at the City Rec Junior Tennis Tournament at Frontier Park on Thursday.
