Paradise Found!
Our family of four stayed here for nine days and we couldn't have selected a better location. The "Beachhouse" is very spacious and everything is top notch. Whether you're waking up in the Master Bedroom or anywhere upstairs the view to the ocean is breath-taking and unobstructed...Though the pool and tennis center were closed during our stay, it wasn't a big deal because if we weren't out exploring the island we were at the beach right in front of our building. I would definately recommend the Beachhouse and can't wait to return. Thanks Barbro for allowing us to stay in your "home" and making this one of our best Hawaiian vacations!
Unsurpassed location!
Can't beat this location for a two bedroom Oceanview! Worth the dollars! Spacious living, new kitchen, and gorgeous sunsets! We will be back! Mahalo!!!!
From the Owner
"Kiahuna is patterned after the original Waiohai Hotel, one of the most charming small resort hotels in the history of the Hawaiian Islands. The property is ideal for family gatherings and, therefore, has a very high rate of returning guests."

You are steps away from the best swimming beach on the South Shore. Each of our properties is furnished according to the tastes of individual property owners. Since many guests will use the property over the course of a year, it is difficult to keep every beachhouse up to snuff in terms of basic supplies. Guests can call the front desk to have maintenance replace a broken or missing item, e.g. light bulbs. Some replacement items, e.g. coffee filters or flashlight batteries, can be purchased at a local market. We will refund the cost of any replacement items if you send us a copy of your receipt. Please do not hesitate to call or send an email with your comments and suggestions.

Description: Letter to the editor 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z Genome-wide patterns of selection in 230 ancient Eurasians http://hdl.handle.net/2440/100789 Title: Genome-wide patterns of selection in 230 ancient Eurasians Author: Mathieson, I.; Lazaridis, I.; Rohland, N.; Mallick, S.; Patterson, N.; Roodenberg, S.A.; Harney, E.; Stewardson, K.; Fernandes, D.; Novak, M.; Sirak, K.; Gamba, C.; Jones, E.R.; Llamas, B.; Dryomov, S.; Pickrell, J.; Arsuaga, J.L.; De Castro, J.M.B.; Carbonell, E.; Gerritsen, F.; et al. Abstract: Ancient DNA makes it possible to observe natural selection directly by analysing samples from populations before, during and after adaptation events. Here we report a genome-wide scan for selection using ancient DNA, capitalizing on the largest ancient DNA data set yet assembled: 230 West Eurasians who lived between 6500 and 300 bc, including 163 with newly reported data. The new samples include, to our knowledge, the first genome-wide ancient DNA from Anatolian Neolithic farmers, whose genetic material we obtained by extracting from petrous bones, and who we show were members of the population that was the source of Europe's first farmers. We also report a transect of the steppe region in Samara between 5600 and 300 bc, which allows us to identify admixture into the steppe from at least two external sources. We detect selection at loci associated with diet, pigmentation and immunity, and two independent episodes of selection on height. Description: Published online 23 November 2015 2015-01-01T00:00:00Z Climate change underlies global demographic, genetic, and cultural transitions in pre-Columbian southern Peru http://hdl.handle.net/2440/100601 Title: Climate change underlies global demographic, genetic, and cultural transitions in pre-Columbian southern Peru Author: Fehren-Schmitz, L.; Haak, W.; Mächtle, B.; Masch, F.; Llamas, B.; Cagigao, E.T.; Sossna, V.; Schittek, K.; Cuadrado, J.I.; Eitel, B.; Reindel, M. Abstract: Several archaeological studies in the Central Andes have pointed at the temporal coincidence of climatic fluctuations (both long- and short-term) and episodes of cultural transition and changes of socioeconomic structures throughout the pre-Columbian period. Although most scholars explain the connection between environmental and cultural changes by the impact of climatic alterations on the capacities of the ecosystems inhabited by pre-Columbian cultures, direct evidence for assumed demographic consequences is missing so far. In this study, we address directly the impact of climatic changes on the spatial population dynamics of the Central Andes. We use a large dataset of pre-Columbian mitochondrial DNA sequences from the northern Rio Grande de Nasca drainage (RGND) in southern Peru, dating from ∼840 BC to 1450 AD. Alternative demographic scenarios are tested using Bayesian serial coalescent simulations in an approximate Bayesian computational framework. Our results indicate migrations from the lower coastal valleys of southern Peru into the Andean highlands coincident with increasing climate variability at the end of the Nasca culture at ∼640 AD. We also find support for a back-migration from the highlands to the coast coincident with droughts in the southeastern Andean highlands and improvement of climatic conditions on the coast after the decline of the Wari and Tiwanaku empires (∼1200 AD), leading to a genetic homogenization in the RGND and probably southern Peru as a whole. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Climate change not to blame for late Quaternary megafauna extinctions in Australia http://hdl.handle.net/2440/99982 Title: Climate change not to blame for late Quaternary megafauna extinctions in Australia Author: Saltre, F.; Rodriguez-Rey, M.; Brook, B.W.; Johnson, C.N.; Turney, C.S.M.; Alroy, J.; Cooper, A.; Beeton, N.; Bird, M.I.; Fordham, D.A.; Gillespie, R.; Herrando-Perez, S.; Jacobs, Z.; Miller, G.H.; Nogués-Bravo, D.; Prideaux, G.J.; Roberts, R.G.; Bradshaw, C.J.A. Abstract: Late Quaternary megafauna extinctions impoverished mammalian diversity worldwide. The causes of these extinctions in Australia are most controversial but essential to resolve, because this continent-wide event presaged similar losses that occurred thousands of years later on other continents. Here we apply a rigorous metadata analysis and new ensemble-hindcasting approach to 659 Australian megafauna fossil ages. When coupled with analysis of several high-resolution climate records, we show that megafaunal extinctions were broadly synchronous among genera and independent of climate aridity and variability in Australia over the last 120,000 years. Our results reject climate change as the primary driver of megafauna extinctions in the world's most controversial context, and instead estimate that the megafauna disappeared Australia-wide ∼13,500 years after human arrival, with shorter periods of coexistence in some regions. This is the first comprehensive approach to incorporate uncertainty in fossil ages, extinction timing and climatology, to quantify mechanisms of prehistorical extinctions. 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z

Ah, December . . . shimmering, white snow caressing the ground—and streets. But in time, traffic and dirt will alter the roadside snow, resulting in a sullied state.
Ah, December . . . shimmering, white snow caressing the ground—and streets. But in time, traffic and dirt will alter the roadside snow, resulting in a sullied state.
In the fantasy-drama Field of Dreams, Ray Kinsella heard a mysterious voice whispering from his cornfield: "If you build it, he will come." In time, Ray realized the voice was calling him to build a baseball field among his rows of cornstalks. When he built the ball field, major-league baseball players from the past miraculously emerged from the remaining cornstalks to play ball.
Over the past month or so, my wife and I have had some hard conversations. Places of deep hurt have become visible again. As we've talked, amid much sadness, I've had to reckon with a lasting wound I left on her heart. Years ago, before we were married, Miska and I endured a significant conflict. In that turmoil, I spoke words to her that were foolish and immature, words that lodged into the most tender and vulnerable places of her heart. I didn't speak in anger or malice, but rather with ignorance and stupidity. I've asked her forgiveness multiple times, and she has freely forgiven me. Still . . . the wound is there. My words can't be taken back.
Sarcasm can cause us to laugh. But it can also become a shield. Why open ourselves to rejection when we can make sure that no one ever knows the real us? Ironically, such insincerity actually leaves us more vulnerable.
Nicky Cruz was full of hatred and bitterness. His parents practiced witchcraft and mentally abused their son as he grew up in Puerto Rico. His mother even called him "Son of Satan." Sent to live with his brother in New York City at age 15, Nicky soon joined a gang. His violent and cunning ways led to his becoming their warlord.
Who do you turn to in moments of deep distress? Some seek the counsel and comfort of family—a spouse, parents, siblings; and some call on close friends. We appreciate the words of advice, but mostly the comforting presence of those who know us. It's reassuring to know that we don't have to go it alone.
Jesus knew His Father couldn't grant His request, yet He prayed it anyway. He had to die on the cross to save us, yet He still pled with His Father to take away "this cup of suffering" (Luke 22:42). Why did Jesus pray when He knew the answer was No? He prayed because of the sheer terror that lay before Him (Luke 22:44). Jesus prayed because prayer isn't primarily about getting what we want. It's about our relationship with our heavenly Father.
An acquaintance of mine, who is highly intelligent and has a philosophical bent, also carries antipathy toward God and religion. He enjoys being provocative, recently quoting the second-century philosopher Epicurus who said: "There is no such thing as justice in the abstract; it is merely a compact between men."
I was speaking with three friends about the lamentable condition of our country. They mentioned the continued practice of abortion, the rise of homosexual marriage, and the debt crisis. One friend cited 2 Chronicles 7:14, and said that our nation's problems will only be solved when our country turns to God. I said that would be difficult to pull off, as our nation believes in the separation of church and state. We cannot compel Muslims, Buddhists, or atheists to worship Yahweh. Nor would we want to. Life goes badly—both for those inside and outside the church—whenever Christianity becomes the religion of the state.
George Mallory was an English mountaineer who was last seen heading toward the summit of Mount Everest in June 1924. It's possible he actually reached its peak but succumbed to the weather on the way down. We'll never know what happened, for the details passed with the great explorer. Mallory was once asked why he wanted to climb Everest. His answer was simply, "Because it's there!" This may make no sense to most people, but to a mountaineer it is perfectly logical. Climbing the mountain is something to strive toward that's an end in itself. The impressive peak is all the fuel Mallory and countless other mountaineers have ever needed.
I attended a boarding school in Nigeria where the older students ruled over all of us younger students. Once, I misplaced a bowl that belonged to a rather cranky older student. Having been given the ultimatum to find and return the bowl by the next morning, I crawled into bed with a heart full of dread. I whispered a prayer asking God for help before dropping into a troubled sleep. Imagine my awe the next day when the bowl mysteriously showed up in the student's drawer!
A non-Christian organization has established a hotline for people who are struggling with spiritual doubts. While the exact goal of this call-in center seems a bit fuzzy, its founder made an interesting observation: "Many people feel isolated or rejected when they begin to ask questions. . . . If churches suddenly started welcoming doubters [for food and fellowship], the hotline project wouldn't be necessary."
During the long, harsh Alaskan winter, Denali National Park rangers rely on teams of sled dogs to help them patrol the vast, snowy wilderness. Dogsled patrols can last up to 6 weeks, and the dogs are always raring to go.
Recent research concluded that Americans are among the world's worst when it comes to sleep deprivation. The published statistics reveal: The US (along with France and Taiwan) ranks among the top three most sleep-deprived nations in the world. Indians (54 percent), Americans (49 percent), and Singaporeans (43 percent) reported not getting enough rest due to being too worried or stressed out. Most sleep-deprived Americans (66 percent), however, can't sleep because they're anxious about finances and paying their bills.
I like to write out my thoughts before I type them. But when I use an old pen that rolls roughly across the paper, my thoughts thump along in fits and starts. When I can't squeeze the ink out, I can't squeeze the words out, and I quickly toss the pen aside for a better one. A free-flowing pen opens my mind, and the words often come pouring out as fast as I can write them.
Reasons? He has many. As he passes several churches during his drive to the park for his Sunday run, he enjoys his solitude. In fact, he reflects on how he can connect with God just as easily—if not more so—on his own. But deep layers of pain, a multitude of rehearsed excuses, and complicated explanations mask a simple reality: Church has not been a safe place for him.
Sarcasm can cause us to laugh. But it can also become a shield. Why open ourselves to rejection when we can make sure that no one ever knows the real us? Ironically, such insincerity actually leaves us more vulnerable.
Martin Luther challenged the medieval idea that only priests, monks, and nuns possessed a divine call. He said that just as people are made right with God by salvation in Jesus, they're also called to serve Him in whatever jobs they do. In this way "the entire world [will] be full of service to God, not only the churches but also the home, the kitchen, the cellar, the workshop, and the field of townsfolk and farmers."

IBM has launched a new e-business suite aimed at improving multicultural trade.
The WebSphere Commerce Suite 5.1 has support for multiple currencies, languages and rules covering country specific conventions.
Kevin Doyle, marketing manager for the suite claimed that support included information on transborder shipping, localised taxation and buying regulations.

He gave the example of differences in credit card rules between the US, which only allows debits once goods have arrived, and the UK, where the debit on order processed method is preferred. Such issues, he explained, need to be considered by e-commerce vendors.
IBM claims to have generated $14.9bn (£10.2bn) from its own multicultural online Shop IBM Web sites and is one of a growing number of vendors featuring multiculturalism as a key selling point for e-commerce software.
Notable competitors include Vignette and Broadvision, which have both launched new globalisation modules for their respective e-commerce and content management applications.
The launch of the IBM suite comes as research from analyst group Jupiter predicts that three-quarters of the global Internet population will reside outside the U.S. by 2005.
The US market currently accounts for nearly 40% of the global Internet market.
Analyst, Bola Rotabi at Ovum said, "This is definitely a good move and will reduce the development time and complexity of many a web project. One question which needs to be addressed is how IBM will manage the constant changes of laws and business practices required to keep the suite updated."
IBM has yet to comment on its plans for updating the Commerce suite to cover changes in legislation.

Many thanks once again to all who made the Revelation Seminar possible. As promised, here's our speakers recommended reading list arranged according to difficulty. If you're just starting out, remember: Revelation, like the rest of Scripture, is all about Christ!
The ESV Study Bible by Crossway
Includes a 10 page introduction to Revelation and verse by verse commentary. A great resource for the whole Bible.
How to Read the Bible For All its Worth by Gordon Fee & Douglas Stuart
This is very readable and a good introduction to the basic principles for understanding Revelation. If you've never read Revelation or other books dealing with Revelation, start here.
The Returning King by Vern Poythress
This book is an easy introduction to the book of Revelation, written in a simple, even humorous style. Best of all: it is available for FREE on his website: http://www.frame-poythress.org/ebooks/the-returning-king/
The Message of Revelation by Michael Wilcock (BST Series)
Wilcock gives us a very accessible commentary on the whole of Revelation which deals openly and honestly with the difficulties and differences. This is a good guide to anyone who is attempting Revelation seriously for the first time.
Revelation: the Spirit speaks to the churches by James Hamilton
A slightly thicker volume compared to Wilcock, but it is very accessible and helpful. Each chapter focusses on a new section of Revelation and is written in the form of a sermon - which might frustrate some more serious readers, but will help those starting out.
The Book of Revelation (NIGTC Series) by G.K. Beale
Beale's commentary on Revelation is grounded in the Old Testament and will challenge and inform. It is a larger and more detailed volume that will probably interest students and pastors more.
The Theology of the Book of Revelation by Richard Bauckham
The Theology of the book of Revelation is a goldmine of insights into the book . Readers are richly rewarded with insights on how the original listeners of the Revelation letter would have been impacted by the book. This is not a commentary.
Revelation: Four Views by Steve Gregg
A Parallel Commentary covers the traditional views in an even-handed fashion. Four parallel columns present the information you need on these key views, and inform you about outstanding commentators on the book of Revelation. No other book gives such extensive coverage of how the church has understood Revelation over the centuries.
Reading Revelation Responsibly by Michael Gorman
Gorman writes with a very informal style, which makes the book an easy read. What makes the book useful is Gorman insistence that the book be taken for what it is: a Revelation of Jesus Christ which should have a profound impact on how we live. Not recommend as a first read, but to those preaching through Revelation it might just help to keep the main thing the main thing: the Lamb who was slain.
The Book of Revelation (NICNT series) by Robert H Mounce
Clear and very comprehensive commentary. He interacts with the traditional interpretations very well, so that the reader gets acquainted with the landscape of diversity in interpretation.
For those who were challenged by Bradley Trout's Greek insights, have a look at 'Basics of Biblical Greek' by William Mounce.
Courses available online at: https://www.teknia.com/classes
Though the book of Revelation appears last in our Bibles, it is sadly first in being the most abused book in that divine library. It is often loved for all the wrong reasons, with readers divided between those who never bother to venture into the book and those who never care to get out of it. Yet it remains a very important book for the church today and God has placed it in our personal Bibles in order to be read, understood and obeyed.
YOU ARE INVITED TO OUR SATURDAY SEMINAR, open for anyone who wants to get to grips with the meaning of this book given to the church in the first century. The format will include both individual presentations and discussion. Speakers: Dr Paul Hartwig (host) with Bradley Trout (pastor), Dr Gideon Beukes (lecturer) and Pieter Pienaar (pastor).
31st Jan 2015 at Strand Baptist, 121 Church Street Strand, 09:30am-16:30pm.
RSVP Heather firstname.lastname@example.com by the 28th Jan.
R30 for light lunch provided.
Hope you can join us!
We are pleased to announce that PIETER PIENAAR will be inducted as the new Pastor of Strand Baptist Church this Sunday (5th October 2014 @ 9:30 am). Tea / coffee and treats will be served afterwards.
The following Saturday (11th October) between 1:00 and 3:00pm, we will be gathering together in the church hall for a light lunch to welcome Pastor Pienaar and family to SBC.
Please diarise these days and times. All welcome to attend.
Grateful to the Lord for His provision!
Dear Strand Baptist and friends
I do hope that you are all enjoying some down-time with your family during this season. What a grace it is that many of us do not have to go into work but can rather leisurely enjoy ourselves at home. No matter what many say about 'Christmas', it is still a season of blessing to so many. Long may it last!
As many of you may be expecting, this is my last Pastor's Weekly. This is because this coming Sunday will be my last Sunday as pastor of Strand Baptist Church - and you are all invited to attend as I take my leave as pastor of SBC (9:30am -). Starting from January, I will be taking up a lecturing position at the Cape Town Baptist Seminary. So for us this is a very significant season of transition. Regarding our whereabouts, Heather and I will be staying in our home in the Strand at present and I will be commuting into Cape Town. From living right next door to my work to now working 35 km away from home is rather different, but the travelling is still worth while for us, since we love our home, church and location. Yet we are not our own and we look to our Lord to lead and guide us forward.
As mentioned, the Pastor's Weeklies will not be continuing. However I will probably still be writing some similar weekly reflections of some sort. If you are interested in still receiving something from me ('Paul's Pondering' ?, not sure yet what I will call it), please would you let me know via email. Just say something like: please include me in your future reflections. If you do not do this I will not be putting you on the new mailing list. I also need to let you know that I now have my own website, which is very much in embryo at present. It is aimed at hosting some of my thoughts & reflections in general. It will also be a resource for my students at the Seminary. See www.logia.co.za.
Well, what can I say about my Pastor's Weekly? I think it fitting to mention to you what I said in my first Pastor's Weekly (the message is pasted below in its entirety). The date is lost on me, but it was written somewhere at the end of 2010 (ps, thanks to Ann in the SBC office who has faithfully printed and documented all 80 of these pastoral emails). That first email was about crafting a personal life-motto that could encapsulate the motive of one's life. This is important for as Christians we are called to live for something greater than our own survival. My crafted motto was "One for all, and all for One", as per 2 Cor 5:14-15. In that text the wise apostle reasons that since Christ died for all, we are called to live for Him. Since He has redeemed us from eternal death we are eternally obligated to Him and should respond by letting the short little current of our ebbing life flow out and spend itself on the Person of our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. So after 3 years of my emails would you not join me is saying "Yes" to Christ, and through all our failures, weaknesses and times of stubbornness and through all that you have experienced in the passage of time, by His sheer mercy, let us continue to direct our life's flow into the Alpha and Omega of all things. There is no other besides Him!
May Jesus ever be the joy and hope of your soul.
In that Name,
Pastor Paul

Liam Neeson wants to know who he is in Unknown. Characters in Another Year would rather be someone else. Bob Cashill analyzes these identity crises.
Bob Cashill asks if it's possible to feel bad about a movie that earns an Academy Award nomination. Yes, says sorrowful Way Back star Ed Harris.
The Tillman Story is an outstanding story of heroism—not, however, the one you were told. Or rather, sold. You remember the official story. How in the wake of 9/11 Tillman, a star player with the Arizona Cardinals, left football behind to join the Army Rangers with his brother. How in April 2004 he died a hero, fighting the enemy in the mountains of Afghanistan, and received a Silver Star, a Purple Heart, and a promotion to corporal for his valor. How, not long thereafter, following saturation media coverage that towed the government line, the circumstances of his death were revealed to be a lie, that Tillman was killed by friendly fire. For most of us that was that, a bitter end and another reminder that neither our leaders nor our pundits can be fully trusted to tell the truth when a more inspiring story that "fits the narrative" can be spun. For the Tillman family, however, it was the just the beginning of a frustrating process to uncover what really happened that terrible day, and …
The Wizard of Oz has influenced every movie made since it opened in 1939, or so I've read. Off the top of my head I'm not so sure: On the Waterfront? There's Something About Mary? Alice in Wonderland, though, has surely left its imprint on everything in sight, from The Matrix to every cop and spy movie where a character says "we're going through the looking glass on this one," not to mention every film with the name Alice in the title (like Woody Allen's) or even a character named Alice, like Resident Evil. With this lineage to take advantage of you'd think Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland might amount to something special, but all it comes down to is…Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. That's not as appalling as Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes (the filmmaker has no flair for science fiction) yet it's nothing special, certainly not as unexpected as, say, the excellent blur of fact and fantasy that is the Dennis Potter-written Dreamchild (1985). It's a by-the-numbers Disney blockbuster, lacking the eccentric …
One of the few upsets at this year's tepid Academy Awards was Precious beating Up in the Air for Best Adapted Screenplay. The film had won scripting awards from the Writers Guild of America, the National Board of Review, BAFTA, and the Golden Globes—but there was some backstage turbulence, which director and co-writer Jason Reitman unintentionally draws attention to on the DVD. He begins by saying that the disc's commentary track was recorded on Dec. 7, two days after the movie's limited release, and before the Pearl Harbor that had allegedly broken out between him and co-writer Sheldon Turner went public. Reitman, who shares the mike with cinematographer Eric Steelberg and first assistant director Jason Blumenfeld, says that his wife helped him on the script, but Turner's contribution, perhaps tellingly, goes unmentioned. Now, it could be that Oscar voters read the novels on which Precious and Up in the Air are based, paid close attention to how the films compared, and made an informed choice. Yeah, right. The likelier scenario is that the rumors hung …
Note to self: Sentiment outranks everything else when picking a Best Foreign Language Film winner in the Oscar pool. I'm not-so-secretly pleased that the stone-cold, auteurist-approved White Ribbon didn't blue-ribbon it, despite critical hosannas. But my favorite, A Prophet (Un prophète), didn't make it, either. The Academy has no problem nominating tough-minded movies for the category, but the codgers who largely vote are a bunch of old softies when it comes time to decide. When reviews of this year's winner, Argentina's The Secret in Their Eyes, noted that it has a sentimental side, I should have known better than to bet against it. By the same token, last year's nominee from Austria, Revanche, had no chance against Japan's tear-jerking Departures. But Revanche has had its revenge, being issued as a typically impressive Criterion Collection DVD (a two-disc set) and Blu-ray. Justice runs hot and cold in the movie, however. Writer-director Götz Spielmann has been making films since 1984 (his award-winning student short, Foreign Land, is included on the second disc of supplements) but is pretty …
We've opened up our chat room for tonight's Hollywood festivities. Won't you join us?
Almost three years ago to the day I posted on my blog an open letter to my long-time crush object Sandra Bullock. The news was not good. Read on… Dear Sandra, I'm afraid it's time to have a serious talk about our relationship. Your latest film, Premonition, got off to an OK start at the boxoffice, but you didn't have to be clairvoyant to foresee the reviews ("sloppy and absent-minded," raved The New York Times). I must confess to you that I skipped the press screenings, and won't be a paying customer. I haven't even dropped it into my Netflix queue, where your last unstuck-in-time whackadoodle, The Lake House, currently languishes near the bottom of the pile. Sandra, what happened to us? We started off so well. I remember where it all began, in L.A., fall 1993, where, with a few hours to kill, I went to see Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes slug it out in Demolition Man. There you were, so perky, so delightful, reciting TV commercial jingles, stealing the film—and my heart. …

A recent feature of the Nike Barkley Posite Max unveiled some interesting details on the genesis of this mega-hybrid, and noted that this spicy Metallic Silver/Gamma Blue colorway was one of four releases headed in the coming months. We already know the release of the "Phoenix Suns" colorway is May 18th, but could this version drop earlier? We have a nice detailed gallery of the Nike Barkley Posite Max in the Metallic Silver/Gamma Blue below so check out the detailed photos and stay tuned to Sneaker News for more release updates.

any idea when is the release? need to have one.... TIA
IF THESE GLOW IN THE DARK.... DAMN!!!! Glow or not these are NICE!
I wish they didn't paint in them before releasing them to the public. No self respecting man can wear sneakers with the pain splatter design on them. How are you going to explain this fad to your children in 10 years?
I have the Egglants and 76ers... I'm on the fence with these though! The Phoenix Suns version are getting copped for sure!
I'm 3/3 wit the Barkleyposites.. no regrets. These shits are fuego and a most have for sneaker heads imo. Sick cw's every time.. I feel like each cw out do the last! Tho the inside of the area 72's are amazing, just don't wear white socks
Best ones yet. IMHO
I passed on the Sixer CW (smh) so that these would be set aside for. I'm trusting my judgement that these will be worth the decision I made. These definitey won't make an appearance until June or later. Wish I could grab the Phoeniz junts too tho. Hands down the best and most creative colorway out of all the releases.
I have been waiting for a good looking shoe with some gamma blue. I think these hit the spot(s).
These are definitely one of the top shoes of the year without question, boosted by a great selection of colorways. These are a work of art.
They are Makeing so Many sneakers IM going to need to get another job to pay all of theM LOL
Gonna cop these too... Only pair I ain't feelin is da green metallics.. But these are a must have... Wish it had 3M tho. Dat would set them off
I think the Chucks are beating the foaMeies
Barkley posite max will be the best ball shoe of 2013 imo. Just wish there were more places that sold them, can't get any pairs anywhere. Pretty sure these arent out until June, then the Green in July, and one more cw in August then thats it. Such an awesome cool crazy fun sneaker. Love it. 76ers cw is awesome!
pls stop with these moon boots
i like em.. maybe w out the speckles on the upper, just my preference.. but boyyy chuck posite hitting hard as steel this yr
i like the metallic green ones better Just my opinion.
they are ok, but for that price i would rather have a regular foamposite
These are too dope. Nike has outdone themselves with the Barkley Posites
Dope but gonna pass
the barkley posites are amazing every color way
Please Nike stop! I literally want to copp every last shoe!!! The Barkley posites are by far the shoe of the year!!!!
It was between the hyperposites and the penny V for shoe of the year 2012.... but I think the barkley posite is EASILY my fave new shoe of 2013. Every CW is bangin, I want em all.
@gorioguapito no, i know its between June-August though.
Every pair of chuck posites bottoms glow in da dark bro
@MissaelNino yeah they do...
@OverTimeOften Hey bruh, where do you get the shirts...
I'm wit u on havin all 3, these hit hard but I think da Godzillas are gonna b da best to drop... Da A72 & these come close 2nd
That's what I did lmao
@Big_Infinite Moon boots FTW! pls continue!
If da specks were 3M then they would b gettin hard
I'm sorry, what shirt?

Following yet another big screen flop with Transcendence, Johnny Depp is leading a new documentary about the life of his hero, artist Ralph Steadman.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star will front For No Good Reason for Sky Atlantic, with a scheduled premiere of early June.
Steadman, known for his radical work with Gonzo writer Hunter S Thompson, will be the focus of Depp's film, which will take a "richly creative look at the power and importance of art".
"I learnt to draw to try to change the world," the iconic British cartoonist once said.
Charlie Paul will be directing the project, after spending 15 years gathering the footage and creating impressive animations in the anarchic spirit of Steadman's illustrations.
Depp will guide viewers through the wild, drug-addled period of Steadman's time with Thompson, the famous Rumble in the Jungle and his gun fights with Beat Generation giant William S Burroughs.

Oscar-winning director Erol Morris also presents The Unknown Known, an intriguing portrait of Iraq War architect Donald Rumsfeld.
Depp's latest movie opened disastrously in the US, making less than $11 million. Past films The Tourist, The Lone Ranger and Dark Shadows also bombed at the box office.
"I remember Marlon (Brandon) distinctly saying he had reached a certain point in his life where he was finally able to utter the words, 'I just don't care'," Depp told CBS last year, remembering how The Godfather actor had advise him not to work so hard.
While Depp's huge-budget career is not over yet, For No Good Reason could signal a fresh direction for the Hollywood A-lister. RIP Jack Sparrow.

* required fields
By Richard L. Fricklas
Stay on top of roof drains by remembering your ABCDs: Always Be Conscious of Drainage.
Crickets and saddles redirect water around equipment curbs and toward drains.
Crickets can be made of plywood or OSB on the deck level or constructed from coverboards and tapered thermal insulation.
Inverted pyramids are strongly recommended for multi-bay buildings, but are more practical for new construction projects. In existing buildings, consider drain inserts.
There is a real difference between water-shedding and waterproofing when it comes to roofs. In building construction, waterproof means resistant to hydrostatic forces, while water-shedding means a roofing system that redirects water to roof drains, gutters, or scuppers.
How Water Reaches the Right Place
On steeply sloped roof systems, there is no need for the roof system to be perfect. Water generally will run downhill, and for various shingles and shakes, slopes of 3 inches (or more) are adequate to get the water to the valleys and gutters.
For low-slope roofing – generally defined as a slope of 0.25 inches per foot, or 2%, the minimum slope required by code for new construction – workmanship is far more critical. The installed membrane also relies upon accessories such as pitch pans, flashings, and functional roof drains, as well as protection against abuse by other trades.
For reroofing, buildings require "positive drainage," or no standing water 48 hours after rain falls. When retrofitting an existing roof, we have an opportunity to note whether the existing roof ponds water and to either add new drains or use tapered insulation to eliminate those ponds.

Not an hour after reading this B/R article by Scott Tully did I come across this Associated Press article on ESPN.
For those not motivated to click on the links, Tully's article explores how sportsmanship in youth sports leagues is getting out of hand. He wonders why kids are encouraged to congratulate a team that beats them in competition and how this hyper-sportsmanship will affect how these kids function in the real-world.
Directly relevant to Tully's ideas is the AP article. Jericho Scott is nine years old and can throw 40 mph. Some league administrators felt that this endangered the other players in the co-ed league and told Jericho's coach that he was not to pitch in any game for the rest of the season or else the games would be forfeited.
This is hyper-sportsmanship taken to its farthest extreme. The league would rather have no one be able to play than to let the kids compete.
Those who think they are running this league are only ruining the experience for everyone involved.
Jericho doesn't get to showcase his skills, and the batters don't get a chance to improve their games and compete at a higher level. In fact, Jericho ends up feeling like he ruined the game for everyone. All because some are afraid that the children of New Haven might get a bruise.
This is exactly what Tully addresses in his B/R article. These parents are sheltering their kids, which will only make the reality of adult life hit them that much harder when they reach adulthood.
Youth sports is about building character, but the administration of the Youth Baseball League of New Haven keeps this growth from coming about by trying to level the playing field. The playing field is never level in the real world, and the sooner kids learn this, the better.
Stop the madness. Let Jericho pitch.

But seeing as Smith was caught on video slapping the reporter, Letterman had to get the story. "He says, 'I'm your biggest fan, can I have a hug?'" Smith explained on the Late Show. "So I go to give this joker a hug, and he like, tries to lean in to like, kiss me! … It was just awkward, Dave," he concluded. "They were like, 'Oh, no, we're sorry, you know.

Johnson is not one to reminisce, however, and the current crop of tourists take on a testing Australian Barbarians XV with 10 capped Wallabies included among their ranks.
Topping the bill for the hosts will be the richly talented playmaking midfielder Berrick Barnes (pictured), who inexplicably cannot force his way into the elite side.
The undercard will hardly have England chuckling with disdain either: James O'Connor, the prodigy at full-back, and Lachlan Turner, the hugely talented left wing will provide a cutting edge.
Johnson's reaction to the Australian Barbarians team on the table expressed a knowing inevitability, and he has talked about his expectation of a fast-paced, extremely competitive fixture.
Harlequins flanker Chris Robshaw will skipper an equally strong England side at the ME Bank Stadium, and he is joined by senior Test regulars Lee Mears and Ugo Monye.
Johnson will spend the next 36 hours deciding if the recently sidelined Jonny Wilkinson should assume a starting spot in the Test side to face the Wallabies in Western Australia at the weekend after confirming the fly-half's fitness.
The selection of Charlie Hodgson behind the scrum is a major indicator that Wilkinson will be given the nod, and that is as it should be. To have the old hand at outside half is surely essential for England to be competitive.
Johnson must be the envy of Fabio Capello - as an England manager with a World Cup to his name and a fully fit squad to choose from - but Australia have numerous selection problems to contend with.
The Wallabies, easy winners over Fiji in Canberra last week, have serious issues in the front row with prop Ben Alexander out with a knee injury, while fellow forwards Benn Robinson and Stephen Moore are also incapacitated.
For a much improved scrummaging unit, the loss of the trio and second-string hooker Tatafu Polota-Nau is sure to provide a stern test of their strength in depth and the versatility of the pack.
Australia coach Robbie Deans has already ruled out recalls for veteran props Al Baxter and Matt Dunning, and so it will be a rookie front row which is called into battle in Perth.
Johnson still talks emotively of his side's "gut-wrenching" and "heartbreaking" two-point loss to France in the Six Nations, and there is no doubt that the England manager is fiercely determined to right a few wrongs on this five-match tour.
"We have got a good squad, but we have to perform because only a bloody good team wins a Test match in the southern hemisphere," he said.
"We've got to keep the momentum from what we did against France; continue to do the good things we did in that game and do them better to win."
That is the challenge laid down by Johnson, a ruthlessly driven man who won everything and has now come back to where it all began, aiming to continue the process of doing it all again.

On Monday Im buying my next retail Vita game, but Im still not sure which one. I got it down to 2 games, Uncharted : Golden Abyss and Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. I havent played any Uncharted games so far, but I think I will enjoy them. Everything Ive heard about Golden Abyss so far was positive and its Vitas system seller, so I want to see it what its all about. Now for Marvel vs Capcom. Im not a hardcore fighting game fan. I enjoy the occasional Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat or Tekken for quite a while, but then i generally move on to something else. So, if you have any experience with any or both games, please leave a comment ! Thanks!

Do it man. I played it all day today. I'm at 98% on trophies and getting this last one is killer, but the game is really satisfying.

About Us
My name is Shelly Lassiter. I'm Washington's Veteran's Special Emphasis Program Manager (VEPM) as part of the Civil Rights Advisory Committee (CRAC). This collateral duty focuses on issues such as employment, retention, promotion, training, career development, and advancement opportunities affecting veteran applicants and employees at NRCS.
As a part of the last half of the "baby boomers" generation, nearly everyone I knew while growing up was somehow affiliated with military service either at home or abroad. I learned early that "Freedom isn't Free". It is from this deep appreciation of our service personnel that I dedicate time to those who protect our country's founding values and to honor those who put their lives on the line to protect our freedom.
As a lifetime member of the American Legion Auxiliary, I tell others about the significance of respecting our flag as a symbol of our great nation. Auxiliary members pledge to do this by providing care and comfort to our veterans and by encouraging all Americans to live out their patriotism with a sense of pride for this land we call home.
In my NRCS capacity, I am a resource conservationist on the Ecological Sciences staff. I started my SCS-NRCS career in Minnesota in 1983 where I served at 2 duty stations before moving to Washington in 1986. During my time in WA I have had many great work assignments, made many good friends and continue to thoroughly enjoy my work, helping people help the land.
I encourage all WA NRCS employees who have military service time to provide me with your service branch and tour dates. I would like to include you in our network of professional support and raise the level of awareness of veteran's issues and concerns.
The Veterans Emphasis Program is an integral part of the overall equal employment opportunity (EEO) program and is designed to—

ATC, i was not for one minute trying to imply that the nitrous was the only reason the car is so phenomely quick, im perfectly aware that there are many contributing factors to its incredible times, i was merely stating that nitrous was a major contributing factor, taking .5 seconds off when you are already around the 13 flat mark IS a major effect, im sure everyone (except rds of course) is able to see that. I would have thought that if the bottom end is strong enough to take it you can safely enter the 11s if you use more nitrous on a decent progressive controller, apart from the obvious (more peak power) if you use a controller you will get a smoother delivery from lower rpm, so you can turn it on lower than you do now, also you will be getting FAR more power at the top end because at the moment you will be finding that you get a pressure drop by the time you get to the finnish line but if you ran 120 bhp jets on a 85% finnish value the pulsing of the solenoids would keep the bottle pressure higher so you would get the full 100bhp on the last bit of the strip (plus probably another 20-30 in intercooling effects) instead of a mere 40+10 or so that you are probably getting now.
As you (being obviously a very clued up individual) are no doubt perfectly aware having this extra nitrous dervied power at the top end would make an enormous difference very safely as i should imagine on the current spec (form what little i know of it plus a few asumptions, so correct me if im wrong) the torque is probably starting to tail off towards the limiter slightly.

Stockholm, 1 September 2016 • Today, during the World Water Week in Stockholm, Transboundary Water Management and the Climate Change Debate has been announced to be the International Water Resources Book of the Year 2015. After due consideration of more than 100 books about international hydrology and water resources, we are happy to announce that «Transboundary Water Management and the Climate Change Debate» has been awarded the title International Water Resources Book of the Year 2015. It is good to see that after its introduction to the World Water Week about 10 years ago, climate change has been acknowledged by the water sector as an important development that needs to be seriously considered in water resources decisions. Nowadays, however, 'climate change' is too often used as an argument or excuse to achieve water-related political goals, such as funding for dams or large-scale water transfers – without a proper analysis of the real causes of problems such as conflict, displacement, poverty. Michael van der Valk, international water resources expert and director of Hydrology.nl: »'Climate change' is often invoked at the highest levels to motivate support for large-scale infrastructure projects, not always based on a sound foundation that is supported by science, monitoring and real-world data. «Transboundary Water Management and the Climate Change Debate» is one of the few publications that touches on these sensitive but very important topics—a must to read for everyone working on transboundary water management.«
August 2016 was the warmest August in 136 years of modern record-keeping, according to a monthly analysis of global temperatures by scientists at NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) in New York. The record warm August continued a streak of 11 consecutive months dating back to October 2015 that have set new monthly high-temperature records.
For almost a quarter of a century, UN deputy secretary general Jan Eliasson has been an indefatigable champion of the right to water and sanitation for all. »Politicians lack long-term planning«, he says. »They look at budgetary needs now but don't see the larger picture. But they must look beyond their mandate periods. Ministers of finance should have responsibility for the long-term effects of public expenditure. [...] Water and sanitation cannot drop off the agenda now. There is such a commitment to it. You have the development community, the World Bank and the big development banks, but also the scientific and health communities along with civil society, and philanthropists all backing it.«
Ten years ago, former nightclub promoter Scott Harrison set out to solve the water crisis in his lifetime. Today, more than one million people have made it their mission too. This is all of their story. Live from the World Water Week in Stockholm.
The Integrated Drought Management Programme (IDMP), which is co-sponsored by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the Global Water Partnership (GWP) and some 30 other partners, has released a «Handbook of Drought Indicators and Indices».
With continuing growth of population and conflicts, we see also an increase in displacement. Increasingly linkages are made between displacement, migration, refugee flows and climate change, which is often linked to water-related problems. These nowadays almost automatic linkages with climate change do not always have a sound foundation, based on science, monitoring and real-world data. SIWI has just published a very good Working Paper, that is spot-on: »Water, migration and how they are interlinked«.
Global companies must take an active role in groundwater governance to avoid existential risks. That is the main conclusion of the CEO Briefing on Global Depletion of Aquifers. The exposure of multinational companies to depleting and degrading groundwater is increasing. The rapid depletion of aquifers is a systemic risk to one billion people in the world's growing economies. Aquifers are shared across national borders and have the potential to spark conflict. Companies must act beyond their site operations and help improve groundwater governance if they are to ensure their sustainable growth.
Half a century ago, Saudi Arabia sat on one of the world's biggest and oldest aquifers, containing an estimated 500 cubic kilometres of water. However, there has been chronic mismanagement of water resources. In one generation most of that massive amount of water has been exhausted, mainly through a seriously flawed agricultural policy. The Saudi authorities have tried to lower water use, mounting big publicity campaigns and giving away water-saving devices such as more efficient showerheads. In some areas the campaigns have been successful, but the government is realising mistakes arising from its overly generous subsidy regime. Once people have grown used to paying virtually nothing for services, they deeply resent any charges – even if the taps are running dry.
IAH, the International Association of Hydrogeologists, has published a new series: IAH's Strategic Overview papers. The new series is designed both to inform professionals in other sectors of key interactions with groundwater resources and hydrogeological sciences and to guide IAH members in their efforts to promote improved understanding, wise use and protection of groundwater resources to related sectors. The papers are an authoritative summary for each topic drawing on the collective international experience of IAH, and are also a contribution to the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the Association. The latest Strategic Overview paper is on «Ecosystem conservation and groundwater».
Dadaab is a semi-arid town in Garissa County, Kenya. It is the site of a large UNHCR base hosting about 330,000 refugees, making it the largest refugee camp complex in the world. To the charity workers, Dadaab refugee camp is a humanitarian crisis; to the Kenyan government, it is a 'nursery for terrorists'; to the western media, it is a dangerous no-go area; but to its half a million residents, it is their last resort. In cooperation with Athenaeum Boekhandel, Europe by People and Portobello Books, the very readable book City of Thorns was presented in Amsterdam on 13 May 2016 — recommended reading!
