A gorgeous, newly built stone villa, set in magnificent gardens, with large sweeps of lawn charmingly dotted with flowers and trees, all overlooking a delightful semi rural view of the northern central Majorcan countryside. It has a large shady terrace, and being in an elevated position, is refreshed with balmy cool breezes. At night the lit up church from the neighbouring village lends a romantic, medieval atmosphere. The villa consists of 2 double bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a well appointed kitchen, with open plan dining and living area, and extra sleeping available on the mezzanine floor over the kitchen. The style of the villa is rustic, with high ceilings and wood beams. The outdoor swimming pool is nestled invitingly in paved stone surroundings, which flow on from the terrace and built-in barbecue, and leads onto the lovely garden area. The villa is a short stroll from the typical Majorcan village of Maria de la Salut, which is well away from the mainstream tourism.
Unspoilt Mallorca: Northern central Mallorca is rural, unspoilt, and untouched by mass tourism. Walk from the villa into the tiny village of Maria de la Salut, and you will only see local Majorcans, giving you a friendly smile as they go about their business. Join them in the evenings as they gather in the village square, old people and young families, enjoying the cool of the evening, for a feeling of stepping back into time. The village has 3 or 4 very good restaurants, where you can sample the excellent local Majorcan cuisine, along with international dishes. In August, there is a night market every Friday night, selling locally made produce. On the last Friday in August, there is a special medieval fair, guaranteeing entertainment for all the family. From the villa is a lovely view right across the low rolling countryside, and in the distance, the jagged hills which enfold Colonia San Pedro, a charming and unspoilt fishing village - also worth a visit for swimming, and panoramic coastal views.
Sineu - neighbouring town: Just 6km away, and with a daily bus service, is the town of Sineu. This is a much larger village, and has a good variety of shopping, bars, cafes, and many excellent restaurants. However, it is best known for its farmer´s market every Wednesday morning. Here, as well as fresh fruit and vegetables, clothing, shoes, and handicrafts, you can find antiques,and a variety of live animals for sale, including sheep, horses, donkeys, chickens, and even puppies and kittens! It makes for a very pleasant morning, and the market winds through the whole town, which in itself is an architectural pleasure. Sineu also connects by train to Inca (famous for shoes and leather produce) and onto Palma, the capital.
We chose this villa after alot of research and it has been exactly what we wanted. This was a high quality villa, set in a rural location within walking distance of a village. The photographs are an exact representation of the villa and the views are breathtaking.
The lady who dealt with us in the UK was excellent and v knowledgable about the villa and local amenities. Anna who met us was very friendly and was available should we have needed her.
The villa description was totally accurate and was spotlessly clean and well maintained.
We would all recommend this villa (2 adults and a 14 and 17 year old) if you want a peaceful and relaxing holiday.
We did activities in Alcudia, beach in Calla Agulla and Palma - all approx 45 mins away. There are beaches nearer but we wanted a more unspoilt one.
We enjoyed eating in the local village square which is 10 mins away as is the local shop.
Perfect villa and a great holiday - you'll love it!
Our family stayed 8 nights at the villa. Villa was perfectly located for visiting different parts of Mallorca by car. Small village of Maria de Salut was nicely on the walking distance and people of the village were so kind that you felt welcomed.
The villa Casa Ana was great! The garden, pool, view over the landscape... I personally enjoyed mornings: having breakfast on the terraca and the view over to the next village of Ariany, the medieval church on top of the hill...sounds of the country side...
And when you felt like swimming, just jum to the pool. I can agree with earlier comments that you almost felt that you wouldn't like to leave the villa at all, but rather stay there...
Rooms were well furnished and it was also helpfull to have washing machine and dishwasher for your use.
And many thanks to Ana and Desna who made our stay as smooth as possible. Ana
responded to our needs well when ever we has any questions or problems during our stay and Desna gave us many helpfull tips before our arrival.
All in all I warmly recommend Casa Ana for your next stay in Mallorca.
We stayed here last year (sorry not sure of dates..) with two toddlers and 4 adults. The house is so lovely. Well equipped, plenty of space, a lovely kitchen and dining area inside and outside. The pool and gardens are lovely and secluded with great views. We did a lot of picking perfectly ripe apricots, cherries and lemons off the trees at the end of the garden.
I would say that it was not ideal for kids age 1-2 because of the stairs inside and outside but we managed and ended up barricading the inside stairs with a bookcase.
Ana was helpful and friendly. She rigged up the shade sails as it was the first week of sun for a few weeks.
All in all a wonderful place, we felt like royalty! The photos do not do the garden or interior justice. We are looking at going away again this summer and are struggling to find anything comparable. We may be back!
Thank you very much.
Whilst searching for a villa for our family ( 2 adults 2 kids age 6 ) holiday I kepy being drawn back to the photos of Casa Ana. I was a little worried it may not live up to the photos but I can honestly say we were not disappointed.From start to finish the booking / communcation with Desna & the Villa's owner Ana has been fantastic. Desna gave great directions for us to get from the airport to the windmill restaurant where we were met by Ana's father Juan.
The villa & grounds are truly beautiful with stunning views from the terrace. We could even pick our own fruit from the bottom of the garden. Set in a semi rural location we felt very secure with a large iron gate securing the entrance.The kids were made up that on arrival at the villa we were greeted by a black & white female cat which they called Meow meow! it came to light in the morning that Meow meow had 3 kittens so of course we had to look after them & feed them daily :)
We did venture out to the village which was literally a 5 min walk most evenings for food & drink & the local people were very friendly & hospitable. On one of the evenings there was a craft market & another a fiesta. We also went to Marineland in Palma which was a good day out with fanastic dolphin & sealion shows & Alcudia beach. Hand on heart I can say this was the best family holiday we have had & will definately be coming back! My husband even commented that it was the first time he has ever been able to relax from day 1 on holiday
With regards to the previous comments abouit noise from the brick factory we had 1 day (wed) where we experienced a little noise but this did not affect our holiday in the slightest.
We had never been to Mallorca before this trip but our family of 4 (Mum, Dad, daughter aged 6 and son aged nearly 3), found it to be a delight. Our enquiry and booking was dealt with by Desna who made it feel effortless. After a very easy drive from the airport we were met by Ana, the fabulously welcoming owner, who had made sure that we had some essentials on arrival including a bottle of Rioja.
As for the Villa, it was perfect. We enjoyed sitting on the terrace, having breakfast, reading or simply enjoying the unbroken view of the church at Ariany on the horizon (which was conveniently flood lit at night time). The pool, although it looked incredibly inviting, was resisted beyond a paddle with the kids purely because of the time of year. The facilities overall are very comfortable, with a shower that is almost too good as once in it you don't want to get out of it! The children (not natural animal lovers) were quickly in the habit of feeding the two local cats their morning snacks.
The villa is in Maria and the village feels traditionally Mallorcan. It is situated only a short walk from the square in the centre of Maria where we enjoyed a coffee in the morning, a bite to eat or a couple of cervezas and vino blancos in the early evening. Whilst tourists seemed to regularly frequent Maria, it felt like you were predominantly mixing with the friendly locals. The countryside surrounding Maria was peaceful and tranquil and the coast was a pleasant and short drive away.
Overall, we found a very comfortable and relaxing villa in a traditional Mallorcan village.
We spent 2 weeks in the summer and would have loved to stay permanently!!! The noise from the nearby build site was very limited and was never disturbing our perfect holiday. The house was very clean,plenty of clean towels and bedlinen, had all comforts we could wish for and the beautifull garden with pool made this our best holiday home ever! The views from the terrace are magnificent in the day and it was a romantic place in the nights. Our children spent most of their time in the pool or were playing in the garden. A real recomendation for spending your holiday!!!!!!
'Far from the madding crowd' would sum up this beautiful villa. It is located on the edge of the small rural village of Maria de la Salut - where life is still based on local traditions, not mass tourism!
The village is a 5min walk from the finca, and has small locally run grocers and bakeries etc. for daily provisions. There are 2 or 3 good restaurants, and more in the neighbouring village of Sineu, 6km away, which is full of character. Here there is a very popular farmer's market every Wednesday morning.
The nearest beach is the Bay of Alcudia - a 12km long beach with pristine white sand, with the popular beach resorts of Ca'n Picafort (15 mins) and Puerto Alcudia (25 mins) drive away.
Near the finca (about 400 mts), there is a small blockwork factory. Although nearly defunct, a low background noise may occasionally be heard from this site. It is almost completely hidden, and does not detract from the wonderful views from the finca, or disturb the countryside peace and quiet.

After the Grizzlyby Peter S. Alagona
Thoroughly researched and finely crafted, After the Grizzly traces the history of endangered species and habitat in California, from the time of the Gold Rush to the present. Peter S. Alagona shows how scientists and conservationists came to view the fates of endangered species as inextricable from ecological conditions and human activities in the places where those species lived. Focusing on the stories of four high-profile endangered species--the California condor, desert tortoise, Delta smelt, and San Joaquin kit fox--Alagona offers an absorbing account of how Americans developed a political system capable of producing and sustaining debates in which imperiled species serve as proxies for broader conflicts about the politics of place. The challenge for conservationists in the twenty-first century, this book claims, will be to redefine habitat conservation beyond protected wildlands to build more diverse and sustainable landscapes.

Climate Change:
Observations on EPA's April 1999 Climate Change Report
RCED-99-235R: Published: Jul 14, 1999. Publicly Released: Jul 14, 1999.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4907
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a legislative requirement, GAO reviewed the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Climate Change Report, which was submitted to the Senate Committee on Appropriations in April 1999, focusing on the extent to which it: (1) provides a comprehensive explanation of the agency's climate change programs for fiscal year (FY) 2000; (2) justifies requested increases in funding for that fiscal year; (3) explains how the climate change activities are justified independently of the Kyoto Protocol; and (4) includes performance measures and goals and similar elements, as would be required by the Government Performance and Results Act.
GAO noted that: (1) EPA's report on its climate change programs is not comprehensive and provides little information about its programs' funding and expected results; (2) the report covers seven of the nine broad initiatives listed in EPA's FY 2000 budget justification for climate change programs, which account for about $240 million; (3) the report does not discuss two broad initiatives, which account for about $23 million, or about 10 percent, of EPA's total request for climate change programs; (4) according to an agency official, EPA understood the Committee's directive as relating only to programs that are part of the Climate Change Technology Initiative and omitted the two broad initiatives that are not part of the technology initiative; (5) whereas the directive was linked to the technology initiative, the colloquy called for a comprehensive explanation of the agency's programs; (6) GAO read the colloquy as seeking information on all of the agency's climate change programs, not just those that are part of the technology initiative; (7) the report generally provides data on funding and expected results only for the broad initiatives but does not explain how the individual programs that make up the initiatives will contribute to the initiatives' expected results; (8) although EPA was directed in the colloquy to issue the report by the time it submitted its FY 2000 budget justification, the report was not issued until April 8, 1999, about 2 months late; (9) EPA's report does not provide justifications for the proposed funding increases for individual climate change programs for FY 2000; (10) instead, it provides justifications only for the total funding level requested, and this for only four of the six initiatives for which an increase was requested; (11) for the other two of the six initiatives for which an increase was requested, the report does not provide estimates of the reductions in greenhouse gas emissions expected to result from the combined requested increase of $13.8 million or explain why there are no such estimates; (12) EPA's report explains that its climate change activities are justified by long-standing agency goals and objectives and are not intended to implement the December 1997 Kyoto Protocol; (13) the report explains that these activities are justified by an international convention on climate change that was ratified by the Senate in 1992 and by seven specific environmental laws that EPA implements; and (14) EPA's report includes information on performance measures and goals and related information, which is similar to the information required by the Results Act.

Empirical evidence
Empirical evidence, also known as sense experience, is the knowledge or source of knowledge acquired by means of the senses, particularly by observation and experimentation.[1] The term comes from the Greek word for experience, ἐμπειρία (empeiría). After Immanuel Kant, it is common in philosophy to call the knowledge thus gained a posteriori knowledge (in contrast to a priori knowledge).
Empirical evidence is information that justifies a belief in the truth or falsity of a claim. In the empiricist view, one can claim to have knowledge only when one has a true belief based on empirical evidence. This stands in contrast to the rationalist view under which reason or reflection alone is considered evidence for the truth or falsity of some propositions.[2] The senses are the primary source of empirical evidence. Although other sources of evidence, such as memory and the testimony of others, ultimately trace back to some sensory experience, they are considered secondary, or indirect.[2]
In another sense, empirical evidence may be synonymous with the outcome of an experiment. In this sense, an empirical result is a unified confirmation. In this context, the term semi-empirical is used for qualifying theoretical methods that use, in part, basic axioms or postulated scientific laws and experimental results. Such methods are opposed to theoretical ab initio methods, which are purely deductive and based on first principles.[citation needed]
In science, empirical evidence is required for a hypothesis to gain acceptance in the scientific community. Normally, this validation is achieved by the scientific method of hypothesis commitment, experimental design, peer review, adversarial review, reproduction of results, conference presentation, and journal publication. This requires rigorous communication of hypothesis (usually expressed in mathematics), experimental constraints and controls (expressed necessarily in terms of standard experimental apparatus), and a common understanding of measurement.
Statements and arguments depending on empirical evidence are often referred to as a posteriori ("following experience") as distinguished from a priori (preceding it). A priori knowledge or justification is independent of experience (for example "All bachelors are unmarried"), whereas a posteriori knowledge or justification is dependent on experience or empirical evidence (for example "Some bachelors are very happy"). The notion of the distinction between a priori and a posteriori is tantamount to the distinction between empirical and non-empirical knowledge comes from Kant's Critique of Pure Reason.[3]
The standard positivist view of empirically acquired information has been that observation, experience, and experiment serve as neutral arbiters between competing theories. However, since the 1960s, a persistent critique most associated with Thomas Kuhn,[4][page needed] has argued that these methods are influenced by prior beliefs and experiences. Consequently, it cannot be expected that two scientists when observing, experiencing, or experimenting on the same event will make the same theory-neutral observations. The role of observation as a theory-neutral arbiter may not be possible. Theory-dependence of observation means that, even if there were agreed methods of inference and interpretation, scientists may still disagree on the nature of empirical data.[5]
A significant example of empiricism will be in context with colors. How will one acknowledge the fact what is the appearance of blue color if they were blind since birth? The one single way of acknowledgement of colors is experiencing them with the senses. And hence, there can be application of empiricism in conducting research. Considering the example of rationalism, there lies significance in the poverty of stimulus issue. Children from and more than 3 years old utilize language such that they have not been through explicit teaching. They hold the tendency of forming actual sentences using words that they did not have a sense experience of precisely placing words before. In addition, they start understanding rules of grammar even before the acknowledgment of a verb or a noun. In this context, it can be stated that though it appears to be strange, rationalism does a better job for the explanation of this particular knowledge in comparison with empiricism (Seising, 2007, 101). However, the effectiveness of theory is highly dependent on the nature of a specific phenomenon being researched. Plato identifies innate knowledge in terms of three categories that are forms, color and moral concepts (piety, virtue, beauty and goodness) (Bernard, 2011, 3). Also, Descartes considers the fact that the knowledge of one's own existence, infinity and perfection, and the idea of god is innate. On the other hand, Leibniz consider principles of logic to be innate and Chomsky considers the fact that ability of using language that means the rules of language is innate (Weiskopf, 2008, 5). In conclusion, rationalism is known to distinguishing between empirical knowledge that ends up arising out of prior knowledge and experience. On the other hand, empiricism expresses the sheer denial of this differentiation between prior knowledge and empirical knowledge. As argued in the context of empiricists, each and every piece of knowledge arises out of and can be reduced to the sense experience. And hence, there can be no establishment of knowledge solely through the consideration of reasoning. More often, it has been seen that empirical view tend to be opting skepticism as an option of rationalism. If experience is not helpful in the provision of knowledge or concept cited by rationalists, then they do not exist. On the other hand, empiricism when considering a specific subject provides a rejection of corresponding version related to innate knowledge and deduction or intuition. By these examples, it can be stated that empiricism and rationalism show varying concerns with the limit to which there is dependency on experience of sense as an effort of gaining knowledge. Also, implication to correspond the thesis of innate concept is completely denied considering the existence of innate ideas within the area of subject. There is also a denial of implication to correspond the thesis of innate concept considering the existence of innate ideas within the area of subject.

You've aced Skincare 101: You drink plenty of water, log eight hours of sleep a night, and diligently apply (and reapply) SPF. But to get your advanced degree, you'll want to invest in a targeted antiaging serum like this one from Kiehl's. Loaded with vitamin C and other potent ingredients, it smooths, brightens, and tones skin.
My skin is dehydrated at the moment and it's starting to show some lines. This Concentrate is helping me moisturise my skin very efficiently. I couldn't say that it removed my lines (yet!), but it drastically improve the elasticity and texture of my skin. It looks better and fuller.4
I'm 31 and starting to get some smile lines around my eyes. I was happy to get this sample and I used it every night until it ran out. It felt soothing and nice around my eyes, but I didn't really notice a difference in the appearance of lines. It did feel nice and warm going on though, so I'm sure it was doing something -- maybe preventative for further development of line, but I couldn't really tell. Maybe if I'd used it longer.3
I have been using this product for 3 or 4 years now. Helps with fine lines. It's hard to find a vitamin c product with a pump. Ascorbic Acid (vitamin D) breaks down very fast chemically when exposed to air. So it's important that it comes in a pump. Love this products!5

The McFarland Chocolate Fest is coming soon! October 8th from 7 to 9:30 PM at the Curling Club, 4802 Marsh Rd. in McFarland. Get your tickets NOW at McFarland State Bank or order online - see upper right hand corner of this page.
Thanks to everyone who helped with and attended the Strawberry Shortcake Social.
What a great time was had by all! The fresh strawberry shortcake was truly the best in McFarland and maybe the World! Dogs Dash and Savvy delighted the crowd with their tricks. The Ladies' quartet, Harmony on Call, sang lots of old favorites and received hearty applause. There were about 200 people who attended and 20 were in costume. McFarland resident and bright young person Violet Gletty-Syoers won first place in the costume contest. So sorry if you missed the lawn games, the music inside and outside, the tours of the Larson House Museum and the excellent food. Nearly $700 was raised to "Float the Boat" in the new addition to the McFarland Historical Society Museum.
FLOAT the BOAT project
New Addition for the Museum on Main Street
The board of directors had a ground breaking ceremony as work will soon begin to add 17 feet to the back of the museum for a records and meeting room and a large display area. An ancient row boat with both ends pointed will be restored and displayed. A new records center will allow for a more presentable and inviting front lobby for visitors. John Wendling has come forward to name the boat after his beloved wife, Ruth Larson Wendling who passed away in 2009. Board member Corrine Niedenthal has come forward to name the records room and made another large donation. The total cost of the project is about $40,000. We invite you get involved by donating at the platinum ($2000), gold ($1000), silver ($500), or bronze level ($200). Your name, photo and bio* would be placed on a plaque in the display room. Or, be in the "Float the Boat" book for $25. You could also volunteer to help restore the boat. Contact Dale Marsden - 608-838-3992.
*Platinum has up to 300 word bio about the donor, 200 for gold, 100 for silver, just the name and photo for bronze.
Here is a photo of this type of boat rented out by John and Obed Larson at Larson's Beach Resort many years ago:
Here are the plans for the new addition:

has increased it's holdings to 12 million shares
6.5% ownership.
I know, they are like me, who some say that I am actually a short here, although, ALL I ever post is my view that this is going way, way, way higher over the next year or two. If I use the convoluted theories of some here, who will conclude that they own 6.5% because they are short and think the price is going down! ROFLMAO
Its simple folks, the clock is ticking and this is going higher regardless of any hedge fund, shorts or volatility. Why? Its a multi billion dollar biotech coming on with multiple products. They are cash rich, with lots of partners and deals. Certainly more to come. If not bought out very soon, in my opinion, it gets buy out offers for $7 to $12 range, depending how soon the offers are made. I doubt anyone actually has a chance of acquisition, however,for less than $15 at this time, as there will be instant competition if anybody takes a run at this. The price has been held down and manipulated heavily, IMO, and its only a matter of time for breakout. Funny thing is, manipulators and any shorts have done accumulators a HUGE favor. Works for me too!
Get positioned: IMO time might be very short now till this gaps up.
Sentiment: Strong Buy

Social Agenda n°45 focuses on the recently adopted New Skills Agenda for Europe which supports training, learning, re-training and upskilling in order to better equip citizens for the labour market. The initiative brings clarity to the recognition of education systems, qualifications and skills across Europe, and ensures better skills profiles for third-country nationals.
This issue also highlights the action plan on the integration of third-country nationals, including asylum-seekers and refugees, adopted by the European Commission on 7 June.

The review confirms an increase of the overall employment rate, for both the EU and the euro area – an increase representing 3 million more employed people in the EU than one year before. The overall long-term unemployment rate, at the other hand, decreased by 0.6 pp compared to a year before and stands now at 4.3% of the labour force. This is the largest reduction since the first decline in long-term unemployment observed in 2014. In addition, for the first time since the start of the economic recovery, the number of very long-term unemployed (unemployed over two years) dropped more strongly than the number of people long-term unemployed for less than two years. Finally, this season's edition also shows a continuous improvement and convergence among Member States regarding youth unemployment, which has decreased more strongly in countries most affected by the crisis.

Integrating refugees into EU countries' labour markets is both a challenge and an opportunity. Social Agenda n°44 explains why and highlights the need to accelerate and deepen the integration process. The new sense of urgency brought about by the refugee crisis could bring new light and extra impetus to addressing wider issues such as unemployment, skills matching, a diminishing workforce, poverty, gender inequality and other forms of discrimination. It also takes a look at the on-going public consultation on an outline for a European pillar of social rights, the role of civil society in promoting an inclusive form of growth and the updating of the law on the posting of workers in other EU countries.

The activity rate in the EU has continued its steady increase since 2008, in particular for older people, though not yet for younger people, as highlighted by this edition of the Employment and Social Situation Quarterly Review. Employment rate has returned to its pre-crisis level but with a much wider gap between countries, from 55% in Greece to 80% in Estonia, Germany and Sweden. The publication also stresses that permanent and full-time jobs continue to increase, though at a slower pace than in 2014. The financial situation of EU households continues to improve, with more available income in nearly all Member States, though financial distress remains high for households with the lower income.

The 2015 winter edition of the Employment and Social Situation Quarterly Review shows improvements on the EU labour market.
Employment and activity rates have continued to increase in the EU, across all population groups and most notably for older workers (55 - 59 years). In the third quarter of 2015, the overall EU employment rate has even reached its pre-crisis level, although the progress is unevenly distributed among Member States. In addition, unemployment has continued to recede and the share of long-term unemployed persons in total unemployment has slightly gone down.

A cultural revolution is required if the EU countries want to ensure adequate pensions for the generations to come. Social Agenda n°43 focuses on pensions at a time when the EU social partners are on the verge of launching negotiations on how to change the way age is managed at work. This issue of Social Agenda also addresses demographic change (how it can be an opportunity), the EU disability strategy (which is being reviewed) and the refugee issue (how EU funds can be used to help welcome and integrate them).

For the long-term unemployed, the European Commission proposes a European framework for a pathway back to work, with a comprehensive assessment between 12 and 18 months of unemployment, a single contact person for all aspects of life and a contractual back-to-work agreement. Social Agenda n°42 presents this proposal from several angles. It has similarities with the Youth Guarantee which, two years after its launch, has created focus and momentum. This issue of Social Agenda also explains the on-going ESF simplification revolution and how the European year for development 2015 relates to employment, social affairs and inclusion.

The latest quarterly data confirms previous modest but positive economic, labour market and social developments. The EU economy continues its moderate growth, which has broadened across virtually all Member States. Labour markets in the EU continue to gradually improve, benefitting from the strengthening in economic activity. There are more permanent and full-time jobs. The increase in employment extended to all sub-population groups. Unemployment including youth unemployment continues to slowly recede in the EU however large differences remain among Member States. Long-term unemployment also shows further signs of decline but remains high. Household incomes and financial conditions of EU households continue to improve, benefitting from stronger economic activity and improved labour markets.

The latest quarterly data confirms previous positive developments. The EU economy continues its moderate recovery, which is broadening across Member States. Labour markets in the EU continue to gradually recover, benefitting from the strengthening in economic activity.
Employment continues to improve in the EU, euro area and most Member States, and is higher than a year ago in the quasi totality of Member States. Most sectors are contributing to the observed improvement.
Unemployment continues to decline from its high levels in the EU. Long-term unemployment continues to recede gradually, affecting about 5% of the labour force.
We see welcomed developments regarding youth with the employment of those aged 15-24 increasing. Youth unemployment shows a decline which is accompanied by higher enrolment in education and training and a reduction in NEETs rates. In other words, young people in the EU are increasingly engaging in either employment or education and training.

Nael van Darnus
this wiki
This land is for one thing... purification!... And for that I gladly offer up both body and soul.
Nael van Darnus (ネール・ヴァン・ダーナス, Nēru van Dānasu?), also known as The White Raven (白銀の凶鳥, Hakugin no Magatori?, lit. The Silver Harbinger of Birds), is the main antagonist of the original Final Fantasy XIV storyline. The Legatus of the VIIth Legion dispatched to the western front, he boasts a distinguished parentage in his late father, a founding figure of the Garlean Empire, and a descendent of the Allagans.
He carries a gunhalberd named Bradamante, said to be named after a warrior maiden he had killed.
In the original Final Fantasy XIV, Darnus wore silver full-body armor styled after Near and Middle Eastern clothing and armor, with a horned skull-like helmet concealing his face. In A Realm Reborn, Darnus appears as a woman with long white hair and dark lipstick, although this is a simulacrum based on his memories. Nael's more notable feature is the pearl-like Bindi on his forehead, which is the same Garlean birthmark Nero and Cid revealed on separate occasions some time ago. While Nael originally lived as a man, this sudden change of gender was explained as a simulacrum of what was left of a little fraction of the original Nael before his brink of oblivion five years ago.
Feeling that the empire's invasion of Eorzea is of divine intervention to save its people from their pagan ideals, Darnus is ruthless and rose to infamy even among his own people. As he sees them as fools, Darnus draws no distinction between friend and enemy when met with opposition. When Darnus rose to power after the death of his ill father, which was believed to be no coincidence, he had his father's closest aides executed soon after his burial. Despite these dark rumors, the battle prowess of Darnus and the VII Legion is such that, even though they have spent long years in active service, the Empire has deemed them too valuable to retire from the frontlines. During his operations Nael displays a liking for the theatrical while in the presence of the adventurer, using grand gestures while talking to those he views as below him.
Being one of the Garlean Legatus, Nael is one of the Empire's most accomplished warriors. He is a skilled Lancer, having access to two of its strongest Weapon Skills. His gunhalberd can drain the aether from an aetherial node, and shoot it as high energy beam. Darnus is also capable of short range teleportation without needing to attune with an Aetheryte.
After being powered by Dalamud, Darnus gained the ability to absorb other beings' life energy and to animate stone golems. During the final battle, he could alter the aether flux around the Rivenroad to capture small fragments of Dalamud and attract them to it as small meteors, and by activating the ruins' magicked glyphs, he also gained the ability to unleash a devastating energy beam over the entire area.
Version 1.0Edit
Darnus had been appearing at some camps to warn adventurers about false prophets. He met the adventurer as Ifrit was defeated, asking for the name of one who was victorious over a primal. After claiming the changes on Dalamud were of imperial doing for the land's betterment, Darnus saw the adventurer and their party were not interested in joining his cause. He drained a close aetherial gate using Bradamante and shot its energy towards the party, destroying the gate.
In a later quest, the adventurer could use the echo to view the past of a Gridanian soldier, whom Darnus silenced for eavesdropping in a conversation between himself and Gaius Van Baelsar. In that dialogue, Darnus attempted to convince Gaius that conquering Eorzea was not enough to stop the primals; the forbidden Allagan magic Meteor should be cast upon the land to purge them. Gaius initially disagreed due to the unpredictable nature of Dalamud, until Darnus claimed he can find the three tomestones needed to fully control the Meteor spell.
In the aftermath of Garuda's defeat, Darnus revealed the deaths of the primals were the key to access Dalamud's power, while telling the adventurer that he will let them live long enough to destroy the other primals for him.
Soon after, the construction of Castrum Novum was finished, and the lunar transmitter needed to call Dalamud upon Eorzea placed inside it and activated to bring down Meteor. Due to the efforts of the Grand Companies of Eorzea and several adventurers, the device was destroyed.
Filled with rage, Nael defeated the group and was engulfed in a red light, which he claimed to be the power of Dalamud itself. He continued his attack, leaving the adventurer group wounded before walking way, saying he still has the means to purify Eorzea with the powers of Dalamud.
Not long after, the companies tracked down Nael's location to nearby Allagan ruins in Camp Glory. An attack group was assembled and sent to the region, only to find the Rivenroad. Using the floating island as an altar, Nael sent fiery rocks raining from Dalamud to the countryside before the party arrived on the Enterprise.
Losing a fierce battle, hoping to use the party as sacrificial offerings, Nael resorted to bathing in Dalamud's light for more power, losing what was left of his mind and becoming a being of pure hatred and destruction. Finally defeated, Darnus's body became pure energy and disappeared into wisps of light with his gunhalbred remaining. His essence ended up in the possession of Bahamut, and was recreated within the Binding Coil of Bahamut as a guardian.
Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm RebornEdit
Despite his defeat, the efforts of the adventurers who defeated Darnus were in vain as the wide-spread destruction caused by Bahamut's release reshaped much of Eorzea. Darnus's gunhalberd was believed to be intact, and remains in the possession of Gilgamesh, but the one he originally held was stolen by what Gilgamesh described as "the demon bird." He later finds the fake copy which Inspector Hildibrand Manderville claimed to own, but realized this was a copy when he first used it in battle.
The Binding Coil of BahamutEdit
During the adventurer's assistance in Alisaie's investigation in the first part of the Binding Coil of Bahamut, they see what appeared to be Darnus making a brief appearance alongside Louisoix as they were observing the head of Bahamut together, but the figure seems to go unnoticed by Alisaie.
The Second Coil of BahamutEdit
When the adventurer and Alisaie arrive in the Outer Coil, they encounter Nael Van Darnus waiting behind the entrance gate. Nael approaches and reveals the original Nael Van Darnus perished upon the eve of the Calamity, and that his body is nothing but a shell Bahamut put his influence into, naming him Nael deus Darnus. Deus Darnus warns the party that should they venture deeper in the Second Coil, they will have to answer to him. After doing so, Nael jumps off the ledge of the entrance and disappears into the depths of the dungeon.
Upon arriving to the Holocharts, Alisaie and the adventurer find themselves in an the Riven Road where deus Darnus awaits them. Telling them that their presence is an insult to his original self's resting place, deus Darnus threatens to kill them before Alisaie knocks the Legatus's helmet off with a ruin spell, revealing a white-haired woman bearing the Garlemald birthmark. Deus Darnus is revealed to be what remained of the original Darnus after a fraction his essence was recovered by Bahamut, and used to create an artificial being in Darnus's likeness with elements from his memory. In maddened glee, deus Darnus transforms into a dragon-like monster and summons Bradamante before being defeated by the adventurer.
Following his defeat Nael rises to his feet, regains his sanity, and while confused about his current body, ultimately accepts he was enslaved by Bahamut. Cursing his weakness for succumbing to the very power he had been trying to purge from the world, he makes it clear that Project Meteor had been solely his idea. Once Alisaie introduces herself as Louisoix's granddaughter, much to his surprise, he warns her that unless she were to steel herself, and her resolve for the harsh truth that awaited her, that she would crumble under the weight of her own despair as Nael did as a child. Louisoix slays Nael with a spear of light and in his final moments Nael sees an image of Dalamud, the symbol of the plan that ultimately cost him his life, but still marvels at its beauty.
Nael Van Darnus was fought as the final boss of the Seventh Umbral Era storyline. After losing the first fight, he was powered up by Dalamud and gained access to new abilities as Nael Deus Darnus. In A Realm Reborn, a resurrected Deus Darnus is confronted as the final boss of The Second Coil of Bahamut.
Musical themesEdit
Nael Van Darnus has his own leitmotif, most notably played during his conversation with Gaius Van Baelsar, and again when he injures the player upon the Lunar Transmitter's destruction. He also has two battle themes, each played during a stage of the final battle against him.
"Tempest" is a rock-like variation of his theme, played during the first stage of the battle. "Rise of the White Raven" is the theme of the second stage of the battle, played after he loses his sanity from absorbing too much of Dalamud's power and becomes Nael Deus Darnus. Both of these themes reappear when the player engages Nael Deus Darnus in the Second Coil of Bahamut in A Realm Reborn.
Other appearancesEdit
Final Fantasy Trading Card GameEdit
Nael appears with a dark-elemental card depicting his official render.
"Nael" is a name of Arabic origin meaning "triumph". "Van" is based on German word von which means "from", but is also used to show that someone is a member of a noble family. Van is also the Dutch word for "from".
- Darnus's armor closely resembles those worn by the Archadian Judges of Final Fantasy XII, and in particular, Gabranth's.
- In "United We Stand", after wounding the player, Nael Van Darnus takes his leave similarly to that of Sephiroth in the Nibelheim burning scene.
- Before Nael's face was revealed, Darnus's race was never stated in-game. Many players believe he is an elezen, due to his height and mannerisms. His bowing gesture, in particular, is similar to the elezen bow emote.
- Nael Deus Darnus being able to use Megaflare is likely an allusion to the fact that Dalamud was imprisoning Bahamut.
- Nael Van Darnus is the de facto leader of the Garlean VII Legion and head of Project Meteor, as an allusion to the plot of Final Fantasy VII (Meteorfall).
- After Nael's defeat, the Bradamante halberd would be found by Gilgamesh before it was stolen from him by "the demon bird." Given Nael's appearance in A Realm Reborn, as well as his possession of the weapon when encountered again, it is possible the thief was Nael himself.
- Nael's gender is treated differently depending on the language. In the Japanese version, the lack of voice acting and gendered pronouns left his gender a mystery that wasn't revealed until he removed his mask in A Realm Reborn, and no mention was made of Bahamut meddling with his gender, implying that he was always female. The English version, however, was forced to use gendered pronouns and the localization team chose to make him male. This made his reveal as a woman a bizarre twist, explained as Bahamut's doing when recreating Nael's body.

The Red Sox seem pretty intent on eradicating all evidence of last year ever happening, and that might include letting David Ortiz walk.
One such spot that could potentially fit him is in the Bronx. That's right, David Ortiz would actually fit well with the New York Yankees.
Ignoring all the rivalry talk, Ortiz is still a player and he's a pretty good one too. His bat and numbers would certainly love that short porch in right.
So let's take a look at the reasons why David Ortiz would be a great fit for the Yankees.

Last week started with members of the Berkeley County Legislative Delegation meeting with South Carolina Secretary of Commerce Robert M. Hitt III to explore ways to improve job opportunities for the citizens of Berkeley County.
The Secretary shared with us that Berkeley County has grown by 1,500 jobs with a corresponding $750 billion in investment by new and expanding companies this past year.
He explained the process of finding the right property or building for a new industry wanting to locate in the state. He also emphasized that we are competing with all 50 states to attract industry but especially North Carolina and Georgia.
There was a delegation meeting composed of State House and Senate members from the First Congressional District. Sen. Campsen was elected temporary chair, and the only order of business was to recommend to the Governor the appointment of Candice Pratt to the Real Estate Commission.
On the House floor, we debated S-3, which deals with electronic gambling machines. There are loopholes in the current law that allow certain types of these machines.
S-3 would close the loophole. The bill was heavily debated by both sides of the issue; debate was adjourned until March 19.
The Freedom of Information (FOIA) Bill was once again put on hold by the sponsor.
We held a full Education and Public Works Committee meeting and I am happy to report that my Veterans Tuition Bill passed unanimously. The bill will now go to the House Floor for debate.
A similar bill that I sponsored last year passed the House unanimously but died in the Senate. Since next week is Budget Week, we will probably not get to this bill until the following week.
We received the budget this week for review. The Ways and Means Chair has been holding meetings with members explaining the bill and answering questions.
As always, thank you for the privilege of serving you in Columbia. If I can ever be of assistance to you, or if you have ideas on issues you want me to share with the rest of the General Assembly, please don't hesitate to contact me at 553-9288, at the State House at (803) 734-2951, or email me at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman won't reveal his hand when it comes to negotiations on a contract extension for reigning Calder trophy winner Artemi Panarin.
Panarin's agent, Tom Lynn, said last week that the sides were in discussions on a new deal for the winger, who will be a restricted free agent after this season. On Tuesday at the United Center, Bowman took a pass on commenting on any talks with Panarin's camp.
"I don't think it's a productive thing to negotiate through the media," Bowman said. "Obviously, Artemi is a big part of our team. We're excited for the season he had. We're looking forward to him building on that.
"And then the...

There's a lot to remember when it comes to managing your prescriptions. Make it easy on yourself. Use My HealtheVet to keep your prescription information straight. You can also use it to put in a request to refill your VA medications and have them delivered. Stop rushing to the pharmacy before it closes. And don't worry about mumbling through that hard-to-pronounce medication you're taking. The My HealtheVet's VA Rx Refill feature allows you to request a refill with just a click of a button.
Access this timesaving tool under the "Pharmacy" tab in My HealtheVet. The "Rx Refill" page shows you the active VA medications that your VA health care team has prescribed. You'll see all the details of each medication: refill status, refill submit date; fill date, medication name, prescription number, the VA facility where you receive medication and the refills remaining. This allows you to view a list of your medications at a glance, track the progress of each refill request and have your VA medication delivered to your home! Any active and refillable VA prescriptions have a "refill" checkbox next to it. (If no box appears, either the prescription is not eligible for refill, or not enough time has passed before you can refill it.) Then when you need to restock your supply, simply check the box, and select "submit!" You'll see the refill status change from "active" to "submitted" to "refill in progress." Your refill is ready when the status returns to "active." It's best to allow at least 8-10 days for each refill. You can also set up Reminders in your My HealtheVet Health Calendar. This will help prevent running low on your medications.
Note that a few of your VA medications, like some pain medications and narcotics, may not qualify for online refill request. For these exceptions, your health care provider must write you a new prescription each time. Expired VA prescriptions will also not appear on the list, but you can reference your past information in your prescription refill history. Any medications prescribed by health care professionals outside of VA are also ineligible for online refill through My HealtheVet.
To use the VA Prescription Refill feature, you must be receiving health care services from the VA and have registered on My HealtheVet as a "VA Patient." Your page will show the refill checkboxes and the prescription name and number. If you have a Premium My HealtheVet account, you may also view other key portions of your electronic VA health record. To get an upgraded Premium account, you will need to go through authentication. This is a process by which VA verifies a Veterans' identity. This is done before allowing access to his or her VA health record. Learn more about upgrading your My HealtheVet account through In-Person or Online Authentication.
Once you have this premium account, don't forget to enter other medications you are taking in the "Medications + Supplements" page!

The Gregory Border 35 is award-winning travel pack for people with an award-winning personality. I'm looking at you. A side zippered security pocket is the ideal home for passports, while a top organizer pocket makes good space for other quick-access items like a wallet and phone. The Border's main compartment is wide enough to hold work materials, and has a zippered divider to keep things in check. The Border 35 fits a 17" laptop with a TSA-friendly panel. Plus the butterfly opening helps you fly through security. A zippered mesh pocket keeps clothes organized, while a front stretch pocket makes good space for additional need-to-reach items. Other flyers will appreciate the Border 35's multiple grab handles, which allow you to easily pick up the pack from above or below and reduce aisle traffic. There's always that one guy that holds up the line. Don't be that guy.
Products on Sale are Discontinued Styles or Colors.
