(High qualty available) Miriam Makeba remembered - Singer decried hunger, violence and poverty 10 November, Rome The sudden death of South African singer and human rights activist Miriam Makeba, 76, has claimed the voice of one of FAOs most dedicated advocates, FAO Director-General Jacques Diouf said today. For nearly a decade, FAO Goodwill Ambassador Miriam Makeba was a strong supporter of FAOs fight to reduce hunger and improve the livelihoods of the worlds poorest people, FAO Director-General Jacques Diouf said on learning of Makebas death. Mama Africa spoke out against the violence, inequality and disease that kept many people, especially women and children, living in conditions of extreme poverty. We will miss her energy and her respectful concern for the worlds most vulnerable, Diouf said. Makeba had been an FAO Goodwill Ambassador since 1999. Over the years, she had participated in a long list of events and concerts organized by FAO, including performances to raise funds for FAO TeleFood projects in South Africa, Jamaica and Spain. Makeba was active in FAOs communications campaigns against hunger, both in interviews with the international news media and through public service announcements. In April 2001, Makeba visited FAO post-emergency projects in Mozambique, increasing the visibility and impact of FAOs activities in Africa. On her last official mission on behalf of FAO, in March 2008, Makeba travelled to the Democratic Republic of the Congo to visit FAO emergency projects designed to help survivors of violence and HIV positive women and men feed their families and revive their livelihoods through farming.

How does Oahu celebrate Halloween? With the same unique islander mix of cultural heritage and just plain fun that Hawaiians approach everyday life!
Here are a few of our top picks for things to do in Oahu this Halloween.
Each of these Oahu attractions are full of festive holiday fun, and they're popular events with locals and visitors alike.
Keep in mind that a few of these can be really scary, though, so exercise caution with taking children along.
Chinatown, Honolulu
October 31, 2015
This is the 8th year of this local tradition and it's only gotten grander and more exciting each year.
Hosted in the Chinatown neighborhood of Honolulu, Hallowbaloo is an inexpensive music and arts festival for the whole family.
It's unquestionably the biggest costume party in all of Oahu! Celebrate Halloween like a real native with a visit to this popular event.
Aloun Farms Pumpkin Festival
91-1440 Farrington Highway, Kapolei
Weekends in October
Aloun Farms hosts an annual pumpkin picking festival to bring Halloween spirit to this popular tropical island.
This family favorite event is the real deal: from a pick-your-own-pumpkin excursion to hayrides and farm-style food, drink, and games, you'll feel like you stepped right into a New England pumpkin patch.
Oahu Ghost Tours
Waikiki Pickups
Thursday & Saturday evenings, year round
Why are Hawaiian ghosts different from other ghosts? Well, for starters, they play a much bigger role in Polynesian culture than your run-of-the-mill poltergeist.
Oahu Ghost Tours not only showcase local hauntings and creepy legends, but also expose you to some of the ceremonial events that Hawaiians use to interact with the supernatural.
It's a truly different approach to the notion of Halloween; it's perhaps more educational than truly frightening.
Pumpkin Picking
Waimanalo Farms
Pick your own pumpkins from a pre-cut patch, wander through a beautiful and unique sunflower maze, and enjoy a plethora of festive fall activities.
Located north and east of Honolulu, this farm is easy to reach with a car rental or even moped ride.
If you're more interested in the maze than the pumpkin-themed bits, then head to the Dole Pineapple Plantation for a really impressive pineapple maze.
Nightmares Live
Dole Plantation
This super haunted attraction is great for fans of Halloween who love to be scared, and who genuinely love the holiday. Nightmares Live is one of Hawaii's most famous haunted houses, with a history stretching back nearly twenty years.
You'll be barraged with live actors in costume, freaky props, super scary audio, and horror-movie quality set design. This attraction is best for older children and adults.
Haunted Plantation
94-695 Waipahu Street
Fridays & Saturdays in October
Located near what's purported to be a real haunted village in Waipahu, the Haunted Plantation is spooky enough to scare even the most die-hard Halloween fans. As such, this is probably not suited for children of any age.
Known as "Hawaii's premier haunt," the Haunted Plantation provides tons of thrills and chills with over 50 actors in professional Hollywood-style horror makeup, plus terrifying backdrops and eerie sound effects.
Honolulu Museum of Art
October 30, 2015
Art reflects life – so why not horror? This October's ARTafterDark at the Honolulu Museum of Art is inspired by the Obake Files, a collection of haunted tales and spooky stories from Hawaiian history.
Come in costume and enjoy refreshments, live entertainment, and even event photography.
It's a great way to get your culture on while still having fun this Halloween weekend. Kids welcome, although the exhibit is a bit scary.
Save on Admission
If you're lucky enough to spend time in Oahu this fall, there's plenty of seasonal fun to go around. It may be a little untraditional, but everyone knows Hawaiians like to put their own spin on everything.
And remember, you'll want to save up money for your amazing costume by paying less for attraction visits – so be sure to pick up an all-inclusive Go Oahu® Card today!

|Bishop of St Andrews, Dunkeld and Dunblane
Map showing St Andrews Diocese within Scotland
The Diocese of St Andrews, Dunkeld and Dunblane is one of the seven dioceses of the Scottish Episcopal Church. It is centred on St Ninian's Cathedral in Perth, and covers Fife, Perth and Kinross, Clackmannanshire, and eastern and central Stirling (western Stirling is in the Diocese of Glasgow and Galloway). The current Bishop of St Andrews, Dunkeld and Dunblane is the Most Reverend David Chillingworth, who is also Primus of the Church. He ministered in the Church of Ireland before his consecration as bishop.
The diocese continues the titles of three ancient Scottish dioceses. The Diocese of St Andrews was founded in 906 and was raised to an archdiocese in 1465. Throughout the Scottish Reformation the diocese continued under the auspices of moderate, Episcopalian reformers. From 1704 till 1726, the archbishopric was vacant, until it was recreated as the Diocese of Fife. In 1842, the diocese, no longer an archdiocese, was moved back to St Andrews and united with the Diocese of Dunkeld and Dunblane.
The Diocese of Dunkeld is thought to have begun in the 9th century, but the first reliable date is that of the consecration of Cormac as bishop in 1114. The line of bishops continued with only a few vacancies until, in 1842, the diocese was united with St Andrews. In 1878, the Roman Catholic Church revived the Diocese of Dunkeld as part of its structures in Scotland.
The Diocese of Dunblane was founded in 1162. Its line of bishops continued with a few vacancies until it was united with the Diocese of Dunkeld in 1776.

Tractor-trailer driver cited after Vt crash
BENNINGTON — The driver of a tractor-trailer truck injured when his vehicle flipped and went through a guard rail and over an embankment on a treacherous stretch of Vermont Route 9 in Bennington is facing a criminal charge.

Q: My husband is devoted to me and the kids - or so I thought, before he started helping one of our neighbors. At first, he would go and cut her lawn. That turned into helping her with projects inside the house. He's over there at least once a week. I try to be nice, since her husband died in Afghanistan while serving our country and she's all alone now, but this is getting out of hand.
Steve: Maybe he's just being a good neighbor. Or, maybe, those inside projects are really inside projects, if you get my drift. Either way, it's time for a chat with him. Possible solution: You both help your neighbor.

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Viviers is a diocese of the Latin Rite of the Roman Catholic church in France. Erected in the 4th century, the diocese was restored in the Concordat of 1822, and comprises the department of Ardèche, in the Region of Rhône-Alpes. Currently the diocese is a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Lyon. Its current bishop is Jean-Louis Marie Balsa, appointed in 2015.
Saint Andéol, disciple of Saint Polycarp, evangelized the Vivarais under Emperor Septimius Severus and was martyred in 208.
The "Old Charter", drawn up in 950 by Bishop Thomas, the most complete document concerning the primitive Church of Viviers, mentions five bishops who lived at Alba Augusta (modern Alba-la-Romaine): Januarius, Saint Septimus, Saint Maspicianus, Saint Melanius and Saint Avolus. The last was a victim of the invasion of the barbarian Chrocus (the exact date of which is unknown).
In consequence of the ravages suffered by Alba Augusta, the new bishop, Saint Auxonius, transferred the see to Viviers about 430. Promotus was probably the first Bishop of Viviers; the document also mentions later several canonized bishops: Saints Lucian and Valerius (fifth and sixth centuries); Saint Venantius, disciple of Saint Avitus, who was present at the councils held in 517 and 535; Saint Melanius II (sixth century); Saint Eucherius, Saint Firminus, Saint Aulus, Saint Eumachius, Saint Longinus (seventh century); St. Arcontius, martyr (date unknown, perhaps later than the ninth century.
It seems that the Diocese of Viviers was disputed for a long time by the metropolitan Sees of Vienne and Arles. From the eleventh century its dependence on Vienne was not contested. John II, cardinal and Bishop of Viviers (1073–95), had the abbatial church of Cruas consecrated by Urban II and accompanied him to the Council of Clermont.
Afterwards, it is said that Conrad III gave Lower Vivaraisas an independent suzerainty to Bishop William (1147). In the thirteenth century, under the reign of St. Louis of France, the Bishop of Viviers was obliged to recognize the jurisdiction of the Seneschal of Beucaire. By the treaty of 10 July 1305 Philip IV of France obliged the bishops of Viviers to admit the suzerainty of the kings of France over all their temporal domain.
Viviers was often troubled by religious conflicts: the Albigensian Crusade in the thirteenth century; the revolt of the Calvinists against Louis XIII (1627–1629), which ended in the capture of Privas by the royal army; the Dragonnades under Louis XIV after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes; the war of the Camisards.
It was suppressed by the Concordat of 1802, and united to the See of Mende. Re-established in 1822, the diocese then included almost all the ancient Diocese of Viviers and some part of the ancient Diocese of Valence, Vienne, Le Puy and Uzès (see Nîmes) and was suffragan of the Archdiocese of Avignon.

1. BuzzFeed sat down with US men's soccer captain Clint Dempsey during a recent media event to find out how USA fans should act in Brazil.
2. Should fans wear a jersey?
Clint Dempsey: Yes.
BuzzFeed: Personalized?
CD: If you can afford it, yeah. Get your favorite player.
3. Paint their face?
CD: Yeah, it's awesome to see that and to know that the fans support you and believe in you. It feels like the people are behind you and it gives you a little sense of home.
4. Bring a sign?
CD: If there is a certain player you're trying to get the attention of, you have a better chance with a sign than without one. When I'm playing games, I can't help but read the different signs. The big signs with the replica of our faces are pretty great. When people have a passion for a certain player, players are able to notice that.
5. Chant?
CD: Definitely. You can hear the chants in the games that take place in the states. In the World Cup, it's just chaos. It's just all kinds of different noises. For example, in South Africa there were the vuvuzelas, so it sounded like you were in a beehive. You can't really hear all that they're chanting, but you can pan around and see the people going crazy. It's cool.
6. Should fans bring an instrument?
CD: I guess you got to, if it's the World Cup. You gotta go big or go home. The big drums are cool.
7. Okay, so what should fans NOT do?
CD: Go crazy, but within a certain limit. You don't ever want it to go too far and get hurt. When you see certain situations when fans get hurt, like when fans fall on each other or fights break out, you don't want to see that. Other than that, I like it all. I'm not against going all out.

Last week, Jesus announced the kingdom of God is at hand. This week, in mighty words and deeds, He exercises His dominion - asserting royal authority over the ruler of this world, Satan (see John 12:31).
Notice that today's events take place on the sabbath. The sabbath was to be an everlasting sign -both of God's...
Aquinas: The Biblical Approach of the Model Catholic Theologian
Today is the Feast Day of St. Thomas Aquinas! In honor of that, I thought I'd cover some ground I've been over before, namely, Thomas' role as a model of Catholic theology and his primary focus on Scripture. Perhaps most striking—at least to some—is Thomas' insistence on the priority of the literal-historical sense of Scripture.
In short, for Thomas Theology is a Scriptural enterprise. Since he&rsquo...
St. Agnes, a lamb for Christ
"Wednesday is the feast of St. Agnes of Rome, virgin and martyr. I have a special devotion to little Agnes. Both my mom and my eldest daughter are named for her. I visit her relics whenever I'm in Rome. "

Just as there is a Catholic way of praying, eating, and living in community, there is a Catholic way of understanding history. Catholics don't look at the world and see man trapped in a fatalistic, never-ending cycle of birth and death as the ancient pagans did. Nor do we see history progressing as a triumphant march, with the future always besting the past, as most modern secularists do.
Rather, Catholics see God's hand...
Joy without Borders
The apologist C.S. Lewis imagined an unredeemed world as a place where it was always winter, but never Christmas.
This winter I find myself in a different place from Lewis's imagining. It's always Christmas, it seems — and that is as it should be.
My book about Christmas, Joy to the World, appeared shortly before Advent last year; and the reviews and press coverage were the stuff of an...

Numbers 6:22-27
Psalm 67:2-3,5-6,8
Galatians 4:4-7
Luke 2:16-21
Today we give thanks to Mary, the Mother of God. Her response to the angel, born of a humble heart, brought us life and salvation in the Child conceived in her womb.
From before all ages, God had destined her for this decisive role in salvation history. She was to be the woman who in the fullness of time would bear...

Sirach 3:2-6,12-14
Psalm 128:1-5
Colossians 3:12-21
Luke 2:41-52
Why did Jesus choose to become a baby born of a mother and father and to spend all but His last years living in an ordinary human family? In part, to reveal God's plan to make all people live as one "holy family" in His Church (see 2 Corinthians 6:16-18).

New Song: Scott Hahn Reflects on the Readings for Christmas Day
Isaiah 52:7–10
Psalms 98:1–6
Hebrews 1:1–6

The Church's liturgy rings in Christmas with a joyful noise. We hear today of uplifted voices, trumpets and horns, and melodies of praise.
In the First Reading, Isaiah foretells Israel's liberation from captivity and exile in Babylon. He envisions a triumphant homecoming to Zion marked by joyful singing.

Elena / Anna es un anfitrión amable, dispuesto a ayudar. El apartamento se encuentra a poca distancia a pie de la estación de metro más cercana bruja es también una ventaja.
Elena/Anna is a nice host, willing to help. The apartment is within walking distance to nearest tube station witch is also a plus.
Bonito apartamento con excelente ubicación en barrio muy pero muy cerca del centro.
Nice apartment with wonderful location in quite neighbourhood but very close to the centre.
Estamos muy satisfechos con la estancia. Anna nos dio muchos consejos y un mapa de los principales monumentos de Praga. Te recomendamos que te quedas, todavía va a volver.
We are very satisfied with the stay. Anna gave us many tips and a map of the major sights of Prague. We highly recommend you stay, you'll still come back.
We had a very nice stay at Prague in the Executive Bright Appartement. It was a nice, little appartement, tidy and absolute alright for three people. The hosts gave us a lot information about the trams, exchanges, etc. which was very helpful if you stay the first time in Prague.
Very good and clean apartment!
was a really nice trip and a nice flat in the centre of prague!
was there with 3 friends and the flat was perfect.
best regards,
flo :)
Very central. A lot of traffic, but easy to get around the city by foot. Very good service at arrival at the office at Opletalova. Two rooms all together, one bedroom behind the kitchen, and the other room with 2-3 beds and a dining table, so it's might be a bit crammed for 5 grownups / larger kids, if you stayed for a longer period of time. Nice interior and clean place. If you go by car: Reserve a parking lot before arrival, e.g. at Mr. Parkit - the price is fair and you cannot park in the street, you can only stop for a while to drop off the suitcases etc.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
We really enjoyed our stay in Prag!
When we have booked this flat, Alex and Anastasia had contact us even before our stay. They were so friendly and let us know all the important information. When we arrived in Prag, we got a map with all the important stuff on it and Alex also sent a mail to ask, if everything is okay. The apartment was cosy and clean and just a few steps from Wenceslas Square.
We really recommend this flat! :)
A huge thank you to Alex and Anastasia, you made our stay unforgettable.

The ToonSeum is pleased to announce the May 6 opening of our latest exhibit, "Captain America: 75 Years of the Sentinel of Liberty," coinciding with the release of the MARVEL Studios movie, CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR.
The exhibit features pages of original comic-book artwork by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, the co-creators of the character Captain America. Other pages feature art by a number of legendary comic book artists, including John Romita, Sal Buscema, Mike Zeck, Frank Miller, John Byrne, and Tim Sale. Also featured are rare vintage comic books, a movie prop replica Captain America shield, and an assortment of other memorabilia.
"This may be the coolest superhero original art exhibit we have ever had at the ToonSeum, with collectors from all over the country and Canada loaning us some incredible examples of Captain America art, showing how he has changed through the decades," said curator Stuart Neft.
There are very few first appearances of a character that makes a statement quite as strong as punching Adolph Hitler in the face, but Captain America did just that in his 1941 debut on American newsstands in CAPTAIN AMERICA COMICS #1. Since his inception, Captain America has continued to hold a metaphorical mirror to our nation's politics and culture. Beginning with the Axis threat of World War II, Captain America has been present, helping us understand our complicated history with Communism, Viet Nam, Watergate, 9/11, the Patriot Act and beyond.
The idea of a character who can fully represent the nation in all of its many variations is difficult, if not impossible, to envision. Captain America, at his best, encompasses the entire spectrum.
"Captain America: 75 Years of the Sentinel of Liberty" runs from May 6 through August 14. All U.S. military personnel and veterans receive free admission. The opening celebration is Friday, May 27th at 7pm. Party admission is $10 and includes light snacks and beverages.
Tickets are available at cap75party.eventbrite.com
Cartoonists Tackle the 2016 Presidential Race
Work by the nation's leading editorial cartoonists will be on display at The ToonSeum, Pittsburgh's museum of cartoon art, in a show that examines the current presidential campaign from an often critical reference point. The show, THIS CAMPAIGN IS YUUUGE! Cartoonists Tackle the 2016 Presidential Race, opens May 20th and will run through Aug. 28th.
"If 2015-16 was a nightmare for those who desired civility and principle in their elections, it was a dream for America's editorial cartoonists," said Tom Waseleski, former Editorial Page Editor at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "From Trump's hair to Clinton's pantsuits, from "Lyin' Ted" to "Little Marco," the nation's leading satirical artists took full advantage. How could they not?"
THIS CAMPAIGN IS YUUUGE! is a collection of the best campaign cartoons by American political cartoonists, both liberal and conservative-leaning, whose work regularly appears in major daily newspapers and online. The show features more than 50 original cartoons, prints and sketches on this year's race for president, including work by Pulitzer Prize winners Jack Ohman, Signe Wilkinson, Joel Pett, Matt Wuerker, Ann Telnaes, Matt Davies, Steve Sack and many more.
"Ross Perot was an amazing gift to editorial cartoonists covering the '92 and '96 presidential campaigns," recalls Rob Rogers, editorial cartoonist, ToonSeum President and curator of this exhibit. "I remember thinking back then that there could never be another wacky, billionaire outsider candidate who would be this much fun to draw. Boy, was I wrong!"
Whether you are a fan of Hillary, Bernie, Ted, Jeb, Marco or The Donald, there is something for everyone in this exhibit. The images offer pointed wit, biting insight and, mercifully, a sugar coating of laughs to help this bitter political year go down more easily. Now there's a way to make America great again.
An opening reception, which includes admission to the Captain America opening as well, is scheduled for Friday, May 27th at 7pm, at the Toonseum, located at 945 Liberty Ave., in Pittsburgh's Cultural District. Party admission is $10 and includes light snacks and beverages.

Re: Does Anybody Know Whether This Technique Has a Name?
The technique you have 'stumbled' on comes from the 3rd section of the Hiden Mokuroku of the mainline Daito ryu school under the late Takeda Tokimune sensei.
It is called waki garama and is initally done from a single collar grab from the rear. I'm not going to look it up but I think it's a variation of shuto zume which starts from a frontal attack. Both involve wrapping the arm and then pressing the locked elbow down.
These waza can be found on the Seishikan video / dvd's thru
Just remember that Takeda Tokimune reorganized the Hiden Mokuroku so they may fit slightly different into the curriculum to older Daito ryu. Ask someone who studies DR for more info, I'm just a curious Aikido guy.
As you view more of the techniques of DR in video, you realize 1) they pretty much threw everything in the technique bag and 2) there isn't anything new (if you go looking far enough) under the sun.
When I started breaking out of the 'mold' of the limited Yoshinkan curriculum, I started coming up with 'new' stuff. Sure enough, I soon discovered this or that in other systems of Aikido or Daito ryu tapes.
Now, it's great to experiment, and there are always new applications of old waza. I always say that Aikido holds alot of the jigsaw pieces of DR but you have to go looking for the corners and the center pieces.

* How to develop an effective SOP and write clear, practical instructions
* How to set up your SOP process so employees know who's responsible for what and how often to review and update procedures
* The details to include — and avoid — when drafting a SOP
* Steps for monitoring and auditing SOP complianceTutor:

Saks & Woolmark Honor the World's Best FabricsDormeuil & Fratelli Tallia di Delfino win the Fabric No. 1 award
Oftentimes you know a good fabric when you see—or more likely feel—it, but there's more to it than that, right? Right. Rather than trust our own judgments on yarns, wefts, twists and dyes, we prefer to trust the experts. To find the true best of the best, Saks Fifth Avenue partnered with the Woolmark Company (a non-profit consortium of wool growers and advocates) to create the Fabric No. 1 award, a prestigious prize that honors the world's premier textile mills and fabrics for tailored suits and sport coats.
This week in our New York store, Saks Senior Vice President of Menswear, Tom Ott, and the Woolmark Company's Michelle Lee presented the 2013 Fabric No. 1 awards to Britain's Dormeuil and Italy's Fratelli Tallia di Delfino. It was a rigorous competition: "Twenty international brands submitted entries this year," says Made-to-Measure Director Manyell Akinfe-Reed. "The judges look for the feel, aesthetic, salability, color, fabric content and mill reputation. These winners represent the world's finest mills in menswear."
According to Saks Vice President and Men's Fashion Director Eric Jennings, it's these types of outstanding fabrics that make the man. "When it comes to quality tailored clothing for men, fabric is a vital part of the equation. The best ones are crafted by fine mills like Dormeuil and Fratelli Tallia di Delfino." Lucky, then, that both winners will now find a home in Saks' renowned Made-to-Measure department. Each Fabric No. 1 piece will be identifiable by a custom number and label, marking it as a one-of-a-kind suit or sport coat. And that's the kind of quality even a novice can appreciate.
Fabric No. 1 Made-to-Measure orders will be available in limited quantities at Saks Fifth Avenue locations in New York, Chevy Chase, Chicago and Phoenix.

Friday ...... Sunny. Highs 104 to 111. Light winds.
Friday Night ....... Mostly clear. Lows 65 to 76.
Amen, and thanks to all for what you do....
The horse orders a beer.
A few minutes later, John Kerry walks in and sits at the bar. The bartender walks up and says "Hey pal, cheer up. Why the long face?"
I'll stop if you guys will donate and get us over our fundraising goal
You're welcome to join me. Most of the neighbors are political conservatives and a great many are from Fresno.
It's a rarely known fact that Quasimodo (you know - the Hunchback of Notre Dame) has an identical twin bother. The twin had left the city many years ago, to live in the countryside, where he made a good living as a bell-ringer for a small rural church.
One day, Quasimiodo decides that he wants to go on a holiday - he hasn't left the city in years - so he gives his brother a ring and asks if he'd like to come over to look after the bells at Notre Dame for a week.The brother decides that this is a great idea. Nice change of scenery, and all that, so he packs a couple of bags, and heads off to Paris.
When he arrives, the first thing to get to him is the size of everything. He's used to the little church bells, and the size of Notre Dame cathedral and it's bells are a little awe-inspiring.
Quasimodo leads him up to the belfry. "The bell-cords rotted through years ago," he says, " so I have to ring the bells from up here."
"How do you do that?" asks his brother (not really sure he wants to know the answer).
"Well," says Quasi, "I run at the bells, and hit them with my head like this...". So he bashes the nearest bell with his forehead, and it makes a beatiful (and loud) ring.
After a few demonstrations, the brother decides to have a go. He runs up towards a bell, smacks his head against it, and it makes a lovely ring, but unfortunately, it also gives him concussion, and he staggers around the belfry for a moment before falling out, down, down, down to the pavement below.
Quasimodo is understandably upset, and as he peers over the edge, he can see a crowd of people gathering around the scene.
"Who is it?" says one.
"I'm not sure, but the face rings a bell," says another.
"Yes - he's a dead ringer for Quasimodo," says a third.
"No. I think it's his brother," says the second person, "I had a hunch he was back."
BTW, my donation is in the mail, and that's no joke. Thanks for everything.
I would drive down for a Support The Troops thingie if it was timed right.
I really like the idea of a two or three day event in Monterey...or even Santa Cruz.
We have a little "cabin" overlooking the Bay between Monterey and Santa Cruz that could put up quite a few people.
Grate BBQ setup out on the deck too...The little market down the street in Corrilitos makes some super sausages.
If you guys are really interested, I could do some research to find a good spot.
If the motor home isn't over about 30 feet it will probably make it around the curve in the driveway.
This is the view from the treehouse...yes it has a couple of computers in it.
You can't see the bay too well on this day, a little foggy.
The main house has a large deck, and usually only a small dog living in it.
I've been offline for a couple of weeks, so I'm sorry I did not respond to earlier posts.
I don't think we've met before. I like your profile page :o)
Maybe We'll meet in person if Amy and the rest decide to get together for a short time. Actually I look forward to eating with everyone more than anything. What a great group of Americans.
We do have fun, don't we?
Tiffee, I can understand why you are worried, and it would be pointless for me to tell you not to, but it could be that you haven't heard from him because he is unable to get any computer time and snail mail is so slow. If he had put a letter in the mail, you probably wouldn't have received it yet.
I'm sure he is okay. I hope that you hear from him soon.

Adamek: Wach Has To Be Brave To Beat W. Klitschko
By Luke Furman
Former two division world champion Tomasz Adamak is giving his full support to countryman Mariusz Wach (27-0, 15 KOs), who on November 10th in Hamburg will challenge Wladimir Klitschko (58-3, 51 KOs) for the WBA, IBF, IBO, WBO championship belts. Last year Adamek challenged Wladimir's older brother, Vitali Klitschko, for the WBC crown. Vitali stopped Adamek in a lopsided contest.
"Wladimir is a great champion and he's very hard to beat. Wach has advisors, trainers, and they all know very well how to box Klitschko. I wish Mariusz success and hope he gets the victory. The boy works hard. It will not be an easy task. The Klitschkos are not peasants from the bar. They are great fighters. The world belongs to the brave. If you have heart, if you are hungry for success - then you have nothing to lose and you can bet everything on the line," Adamek said.
Luke Furman covers boxing for bokser.org
He'll have to be more than brave...he'll have to develop super powers before now and then. There is zero chance of winning this one...Comment by 4Corners on 08-25-2012
If Wach wins, it'll seriously be the biggest upset ever. How this is a world title fight is beyond me.Comment by ddangerous on 08-25-2012
Hate to break it to you, Adamek, but bravery doesn't beat a Klitschko. Just ask, well, yourself. :boxing:Post a Comment - View More User Comments (3)

Playmobil is one of the first toy companies to produce little people Playmobil toys with detachable arms, legs, heads, hats, and hair. These plastic figures came with all sorts of clothing and tools from armor in the medieval times to recognizable work attire such as firefighters, farmers, and policemen. Playmobil toys are designed for children of ages six to twelve. This age range is when children tend to pretend and invent scenarios and stories for playtime.
The creator of Playmobil was Hans Beck from Germany who was a cabinetmaker but put together model airplanes on the side. He approached the company, Geobra Brandstatter, to create model airplanes but instead was asked to create figures for children. Beck researched and developed a toy that would fit in a child's hand, look like a child's drawing and be able to move and come in parts.
Playmobil figures started to be sold worldwide in 1975 and has been successful for many years. The line consisted of different worlds or time periods as well as city life and common occupations. Currently there are many Playmobil themes, but some of them are: School, Vikings, Hospital, Egyptians, Pirates, Modern Living and Construction. There are many, many more themes both current and discontinued collector themes that children and adults can continue to play for years to come.

Cricket: Fingers crossed for Joyce comeback
Published 05/10/2010
Ireland hope to know by the end of this month if Ed Joyce will be available to play in next year's World Cup finals in Asia.
Cricket Ireland chief executive Warren Deutrom is expecting a answer to their request that Joyce be allowed to return to Ireland colours in time for the finals before national coach Phil Simmons names his panel for next month's training camp in India.
By the letter of the law, Joyce is not allowed to play for Ireland again until April 4, 2011, four years since his last appearance for England. After two years without a recall to England team, Joyce, who played 50 times for the country of birth between 1998 and 2005, declared his hand for Ireland again. But Cricket Ireland have asked that the four-year requalifying period be reduced to World Cup to World Cup. Because next year's finals are in Asia they are being played from February 19-April 2, some four weeks earlier than the 2007 World Cup in the West Indies.
The ICC's cricket committee, chaired by former West Indian great Clive Lloyd, will hear Ireland's request which also includes the name of Hamish Marshall, the former New Zealand international, who renounced claims to play for his home country immediately after the last World Cup.
Last year, Marshall, a team-mate at Gloucesterhire of Ireland captain William Porterfield, also declared his intention to play for Ireland and he has already coached in the country. His farewell match for New Zealand was actually against Ireland five days after Joyce's last game for England and Cricket Ireland have not given up hope of having both players available to play in Bangladesh and India next year.
Joyce, a born and bred Dubliner, now playing for Sussex, is their big hope to strengthen the current line-up and if he gets the go-ahead from ICC to play in the World Cup it is expected he will be one of 18 players who will spend three weeks in Poona next month.
Meanwhile, Trent Johnston and Kevin O'Brien arrive in India today as two of the four nominees for the ICC Associate Player of the Year.
Johnston, still Ireland's most consistent bowler at the age of 36, would be my favourite for the award which was was won last year by Porterfield.
The decision will be announced at the glamour awards ceremony, attended by the greats of world cricket, in Bangalore tomorrow.

This is a 'winter edition' of the autumn Dover Town and Dover Castle from the Western Heights photo uploaded on November 5th, 2009.
Left of centre on the snow-covered skyline is the Norman Keep (or Great Tower) of Dover Castle; further left are three masts of a Second World War early-warning Chain Home radar station.
Right of centre on the skyline are the Roman Pharos and adjacent Saxon church of St Mary-in-Castro.
Just below the skyline towards the right-hand edge of the photo is an end view of the Victorian Officer's Mess (I have a photo of it, but it hasn't been uploaded yet).
Stretching across the lower half of the photo is the row of large terraced houses of Victoria Park, to the left of which lies the southern entrance to the Zig Zags; if you know where to look, the West Wall of Old St James Church is also visible (bottom right, in a line under the end houses of Victoria Park).
Within 5 to 150 yards of where this photo was taken from are: Cowgate Cemetery Nature Reserve, the Court`s Folly, the 64 Steps, and the Drop Redoubt (see below).
In June of this year (2009) I made a video of the Victorian North Entrance whose opening sequence began with a similar view to that shown in the above photograph (taken a few yards from the Drop Redoubt).
The North Entrance and the Drop Redoubt are only two parts of the extensive Napoleonic and Victorian defence system embedded into the Western Heights. The North Entrance video is in two parts:
Video of the North Entrance, Western Heights, Dover (Part 1)
Video of the North Entrance, Western Heights, Dover (Part 2)
Dover Castle and the Western Heights fortifications are English Heritage sites.

To each their own, obviously. I can't stand country music but I'm sure folks have tossed
around the "G" word when talking about Garth Brooks and company.

2 heroin addicts and a self-admitted pedophile. Guess everything depends on the glasses

Referring to the table in problem 5, suppose improvement occurs in the technology of producing forklifts but not in the technology of producing automobiles. Draw the new production possibilities curve. Now assume that a technological advance occurs in producing automobiles but not in producing forklifts. Draw the new production possibilities curve. Now draw a production possibilities curve that reflects technological improvement in the production of both goods. LO6
Reference problem 5
To the right is a production possibilities table for consumer goods (automobiles) and capital goods (forklifts): LO5
a. Show these data graphically. Upon what specific assumptions is this production possibilities curve based?
b. If the economy is at point C, what is the cost of one more automobile? Of one more forklift? Which characteristic of the production possibilities curve reflects the law of increasing opportunity costs: its shape or its length?
c. If the economy characterized by this production possibilities table and curve were producing 3 automobiles and 20 forklifts, what could you conclude about its use of its available resources?
d. Is production at a point outside the production possibilities curve currently possible? Could a future advance in technology allow production beyond the current production possibilities curve? Could international trade allow a country to consume beyond its current production possibilities curve?

Spain Cruises Passed Italy For Euro 2012 Title
KIEV, Ukraine --? Just like clockwork, Spain's "tiki taka" passing game tore Italy apart.
The World Cup champions controlled the play Sunday in the European Championship final, as they usually do. They moved the ball up the field with short pass after short pass, as they usually do.
But, incredibly, they also managed to score a whopping four goals, something they don't usually do.
It all added up to a 4-0 win over Italy and a third straight major soccer title for Spain.
"We won being true to our playing style, and by moving the ball the way we moved it we knew how to take charge of the match," said Spain goalkeeper Iker Casillas, the team's captain. "What we do is difficult but we make it look easy."

ESPN analyst Todd McShay has an early look at his Top 20 prospects for the 2011 NFL draft, and all five of the SEC players on his list are underclassmen.
The top SEC player on McShay's board was Georgia receiver A.J. Green at No. 4. Right behind Green was Alabama defensive end Marcell Dareus at No. 5. Florida cornerback Janoris Jenkins was No. 10, Arkansas quarterback Ryan Mallett No. 12 and Alabama running back Mark Ingram No. 19.
McShay's No. 1 prospect was Washington quarterback Jake Locker.
The one SEC player not in McShay's Top 20 that I absolutely expected to see was LSU cornerback Patrick Peterson. I had a top NFL personnel guy tell me recently that the two best defensive prospects in the SEC this season were Dareus and Peterson.
If Alabama linebacker Dont'a Hightower's knee holds up and he returns to form, I also think he will be a first-round draft choice, assuming he chooses to come out.

Typically 20-30 miles a week here. I did my first trail marathon off a longest of 15, and first ultra off a longest of 21. They do get easier as you do more and like Cougie above I wouldn't necessarily recommend it as a strategy, but if you're reasonably pig headed you can normally get round.
Don't know if you found a place - give us a wave at checkpoint 2 if you did and help yourself to cake! I've done it a couple of time and reckon it's the perfect next step from the marathon. Not too far, well marked, well supported and pie at the end
Great solution. Good luck for the next one!
Glad you enjoyed it - nice time too. Don't shout about the clips! - they were a bonus and not everyone got one! (...which inevitably prompts complaints!) They were last year's goodie and we actually gave out over 600 goodies bags to people who'd run the course anyway in foul conditions after we'd cancelled.
Bad luck Alan, I know how tough it is after being involved with the Four Villages and cancelling there in 2015. We had a great one this year - you'll be back stronger than ever!

Just wondering if any one else had a child allergic to melons. I feel so bad for my son I don't even buy them anymore.
My son is allergic to melons

Mine is allergic to cantaloupe, but OK with watermelon.
DS 12/07 asthma; allergic to fish, kiwi and peanut; also reacts to melon http://asafekitchen.blogspot.com/
Mine does OK with Watermelon, but honeydew and cantaluope are really bad, we recently found out about his honeydew allergiy for an exposure that went very bad!
A - Mom to
C - 6/08 (ukn GI issue, GERD, Asthma, MFA/I HHT, Neocate Jr)
E - 3/12 (Neocate Infant, MFA/I, GERD, FTT, PFAPA, ASD)
sorry =[ What are your child's reactions to it? I planted a garden full of cantaloupe for Aiden and found out it gave him diarrhea... I was so upset when I realized it because it was one of the few foods he never threw to the floor and could eat easily with only having 3 teeth at 15 months.
Single mommy to Aiden (7/1/09) & one pPROM Angel, Adelyn (11/24/11)
We tried cantaloupe I think before DS was a year. Gave him his worst raw painful diaper rash to date. Afterwards, I did some reading and discovered that melons in general can have that effect, allergy or not. So, I don't necessarily think DS is allergic to melons, but we are avoiding intro'ing any others until he is a little older.
DS 8 - Allergic to wheat, barley, rye, egg, garlic, mustard, spinach, several legumes, pn, tn.
My Maria (10) just passed a watermelon challenge. We will be challenging the rest of her fruits, one at a time, including cantelope.
In the world of food allergies, fruits are pretty easy to avoid. It was much harder with our Elena (8) who was allergic to so many things that were in other foods.
But we are so happy to be moving on. Maria loves food and variety, so it will be great to let her eat fruit salad!

My 2 yr old is allergic to melons too. I'm curious to know what kind of reaction your melon allergic child has? Aaron ate watermelon for a while and he really liked it. But when he started getting bigger and eating more than a few cubes, he started reacting to it. He would eat it, enjoy it, and a half hour to an hour later, be covered in hives. And he has to eat a lot of it to have a reaction. It took several reactions for me to figure out it was the watermelon because the reaction was so delayed. Then a few months later, it started happening with other melons too with hives after almost an hour. The allergist did SPT to watermelon and honeydew, and they both came out negative, but the reaction has happened so many times at this point, so I'm sure of it. It has happened too much to be coincidental.

Our son gets hives where the melon touches his skin. He is 4 & we discovered this at 3 yrs. He had eaten it before & not had a noticable reaction, but spent the 1st 3 yrs of his life COVERED in eczema so who knows. The allergist sd melons are cross reactive to ragweed so if you have a ragweed allergy you are likely to react to melon. Also, you are more likely to react during ragweed season.
When he eats any melon, he turns bright red almost like he has a sunburn depending on the amount. His cheeks also swell, he gets almost like a flu type reaction. When he even has a tiny bite, he looks like someone slapped him on his face. Doc said it was possible to outgrow, so every year we try giving him a tiny bite to see, but so far no luck.
Cantaloupe and honey dew really aren't an issue as he doesn't like the taste, but he loves watermelon, so it is very rare that I even buy it anymore.
It's pretty sad when you should want to avoid artificial flavoring, but I catch myself looking at things that have watermelon flavor in and and I make sure it's artificial flavoring since he loves the taste so much.

Ron MacLean's statement attempting to clarify comparison of players to 9/11 responders
Ron MacLean, Hockey Night in Canada host and longtime sidekick to broadcaster Don Cherry, made some rather interesting observations to open up the CBC's broadcast of Rangers and Capitals on Wednesday night.
His intro? Comparing the teams and their players to the firefighters and police officers in the 9/11 attacks that affected both cities the teams that played represent.
Once more, here's what he had to say.
As you might expect, there were plenty of people who raised an eyebrow. It's an interesting connection to make, no doubt. So of course MacLean and CBC issued a statement about the incident on Thursday, not apologizing but instead clarifying the intent of MacLean's message.
"Washington and New York. The two cities united by the tragedy of 9/11. I, like everyone on the planet in his or her lifetime, saw beyond the horror, the single greatest testament to the strength of the human spirit in the efforts of the first responders", says Ron Maclean.
"We never know if we'll have that spirit. The bravery, the resilience. As I made clear, the hockey games in no way compare. However Sports has proven a worthy training ground in nurturing the qualities which beget that spirit. To say he plays like a firefighter or a policeman would instantly conjure the traits an athlete most desires, especially in New York and Washington. There could be no higher praise of a player, no greater choice of a role model.
"But as I said of first responders, 'Our worst day is their everyday'. They stand alone."
I see what he is saying, but man, it just wasn't the best comparison to make.
Clarifying the statement is fine, but I thought it would have been nice to see a little admission that it was a regrettable thing to say.

What does "Colorado" mean?
Colorado is of Spanish origin, meaning "colored red." The name was applied to the Colorado river (because of the red sandstone soil of the region) and came into use for the entire territory after the discovery of gold in the Pike's Peak region. In 1861 congress chose Colorado as the name for the Territory.
Colorado is also called "Colorful Colorado" because of the magnificent scenery of mountains, rivers and plains.
