Salar de Uyuni is estimated to contain 10 billion tons of salt of which less than 25,000 tons is extracted annually. All miners working in the Salar belong to Colchani's cooperative. They work from dawn to dusk and most of them do not take a lunch break in order to take advantage of time, getting energy by chewing coca leaves.
Every November, Salar de Uyuni is also the breeding grounds for three species of South American flamingos - Chilean, James's and Andean. The sights were beyond words, put the driving and the nights stays were very tough!! Food not to good and no showers for 4 days!!!!

Liz was an excellent host - she made sure we received all necessary information upfront, she even texted us on the day of the trip to make sure we had her contact number. The apartment was excellent - clean, welcoming, comfortable. The parking was a bonus and Liz even provided us with a parking permit. I would certainly recommend this host and the apartment to my friends and will try to return to Edinburgh and Hopetoun Apartment soon.
It was great!!! I love Edimburgh!!

A cosy place, in a quiet area. It is sufficently equiped and very well furnished. Above all it was very clean and tidy.
It is located about 15 minutes walk to the city center. Closer you can find supermarkets, but also plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants.

Liz' flat was as beautiful, well-kept and homely as expected. AND within easy walking distance of the City Centre, Calton Hill and Arthurs' Seat. We very much enjoyed our stay there, as well as Liz' warm hospitality. We would love to come back and stay again!
We were 4 adults and one infant, and we had a great time. The apartment was very clear, tidy and very cozy, with modern equipment, without being too stylish. We loved it. It felt safe, and like home. When we arrived there was hot water on the kettle and we immediately felt so welcome.
There is only one bad thing to mention, and that was the shower head, which for some reason could not keep the pressure or the temperature. It was only minor inconvenience, and besides that, it was absolutely lovely.
The apartment is situated 15 minutes walk from the city center, and in a nice quite neighborhood. We experienced no unpleasant incidents. We highly recommend this place.
Absolutely fabulous!

Central Americans Speak Out Against CAFTA
Central Americans Speak Out Against DR-CAFTA: Major Issues and Mobilizations
Alliance for Responsible Trade
Karen Hansen-Kuhn, March 2005
Introduction: Why Central Americans Oppose DR-CAFTA
When the Bush Administration announced in 2002 the initiation of talks toward the establishment of a U.S.-Central America Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA, also known as DR-CAFTA after the inclusion of the Dominican Republic in 2004), it declared that the accord would advance "regional stability, democracy and economic development." Central Americans organized in unions, women's, environmental, family-farm, consumer and youth organizations and social movements, on the other hand, have expressed their alarm at the agreement's potential consequences in a series of protests, workshops, conferences and press events designed to increase public awareness about these damaging potential impacts. These events have paralleled the negotiations and the present planning for the accord's submission to the U.S. and Central American legislatures for approval, perhaps later this year.
The issues that most concern Central Americans vary from country to country. In Costa Rica, for example, there has been considerable opposition to provisions in DR-CAFTA that would serve to privatize the country's inexpensive and well functioning telecommunications system. In El Salvador, much of the protest has focused on the link between efforts to privatize public-health care and provisions in DR-CAFTA that would expedite the sector's privatization and make it permanent.
Some issues have resonated throughout the region. Central Americans look with alarm at the experience of Mexican farmers under NAFTA, realizing that their own agricultural sectors, which are the source of up to half of local employment, could be devastated by imports of low-cost farm goods from the United States. Many civil-society groups in every country in the region are also strongly opposed to provisions in DR-CAFTA on investment, services, and government procurement, among others, that would make it extremely difficult, if not virtually impossible, for local governments to respond to democratic initiatives to design and implement sustainable and equitable national development programs.
Civil-society programs to educate local populations about DR-CAFTA are more advanced in Central America than in the Dominican Republic, which was "docked in" to DR-CAFTA last year after a short series of hasty negotiations. Even so, Dominican groups are committed to broadening the public debate on the accord in their country. In February 2005, 62 civil-society organizations, led by the Dominican Medical College, held an Alternative Social Forum. Citing the agreement's potential impacts on Dominican family farmers and on people's access to low-cost medicines, participants in the Forum agreed to launch a major public-education campaign and to urge their legislators to reject the proposed accord.
The Dominican and Central American organizations opposing DR-CAFTA, like their allies in the United States, are not against increasing trade and other economic ties among our seven countries. They believe, however, that the provisions of DR-CAFTA constitute the wrong rules for regional integration. They are therefore calling for the rejection of DR-CAFTA and for the initiation of a greatly expanded public dialogue in each nation with civil society to shape a set of economic relations among the countries of the region that would lead to just and sustainable development.
Guatemala: Devastating Impacts on Agriculture and Sovereignty
As Mexico's closest neighbors, Guatemalans view the Mexican experience under NAFTA with grave concern, particularly the fact that some 1.3 million Mexican farmers have been displaced by imports of cheap U.S. agricultural goods. Agriculture makes up 23% of Guatemala's GDP and is the source of 50% of its employment. The Coordination of NGOs and Cooperatives (CONGOOD) carried out a detailed study of the potential impact of DR-CAFTA on Guatemalan agriculture, particularly on the export and import of 24 key crops. CONGCOOP concludes that the agreement could result in a net loss of between 45,000 and 124,000 jobs. The job losses among white-corn producers (who account for 38 percent of employment in the country) could be especially severe during the first year of implementation, when production could fall by as much as 80 percent.
Not surprisingly, family-farm and indigenous organizations have been at the forefront of demonstrations against the agreement. In a recent protest at the national Congress, Nery Barrios of Unity of Union and Popular Action (UASP) emphasized that, "campesinos won't be able to produce corn, beans, rice or grains, because those goods will come from abroad at lower prices. They will be genetically modified goods that will affect Guatemalans' health." Indigenous groups assert that the agreement violates their rights under ILO Convention 169 (which Guatemala ratified in 1996), which states that they must be consulted on issues that affect their rights to land or livelihoods.
Over the past few months, a new issue has emerged: the Guatemalan Congress's right to establish laws regarding the production and marketing of generic medicines. The Congress approved legislation in December 2004 that eliminated a five-year ban on the use of test data on pharmaceutical products. Under the old ban generic producers were forced to conduct their own trials on the safety of medicines in order to gain marketing authority, which is prohibitively expensive. The office of the U.S. Trade Representative has threatened to remove Guatemala from DR-CAFTA unless the five-year protection on the use of test data is reinstated. Luis Velazquez of the Association of Pharmaceutical Industries of Guatemala (ASINFRAGUA) called this pressure "an abuse" and said that it violates the country's sovereignty.
Guatemalan organizations have also protested the lack of public debate on DR-CAFTA and have insisted on a public consultation on the accord. The Mesa Global, a multisectoral coalition on trade and development, has, in working with other organizations, gathered 25,000 letters to legislators demanding that they convene a public consultation on the ratification of this accord. They urge the Congress not to rush through a vote but instead to carefully consider the potential consequences for the country's future economic and social development.
Guatemalan Demonstrations against CAFTA
12 October 2002: Mobilizations against CAFTA are held throughout Central America. A thousand indigenous Guatemalans block the Pan-American Highway at Huehuetenango, and 6,000 protestors block highways, airports and border crossings in Petén.
12 May 2003: Hundreds of farmers protest outside the site of the fourth round of official negotiations in Guatemala City. "We want to continue working without the threat of an invasion of subsidized U.S. products, as occurred in Mexico under NAFTA," the protestors announce in a press statement.
26 November 2003: 20,000 Guatemalan family farmers and indigenous people march to demand changes in the government's agricultural and land-tenure policies and to protest CAFTA, the FTAA and Plan Puebla Panama.
23 March 2004: Thousands of Guatemalan farmers, women, workers and youth march and block roads to protest CAFTA, Plan Puebla Panama and recent price increases on consumer goods.
31 March 2004: More than 10,000 indigenous Guatemalans organized by the Mayan Wagib'Kij march to demand that the government cancel permits for mining on their lands and that it review CAFTA, the FTAA and PPP and initiate a process to redefine those agreements in consultation with indigenous peoples.
8 June 2004: Thousands of Guatemalan farmers, workers and indigenous peoples block highways and border crossings, protesting violent land evictions, proposals for regressive taxes and CAFTA (now known as DR-CAFTA after the addition of the Dominican Republic). The government agrees to a series of commitments in response to the protests, including a promise to hold public hearings on DR-CAFTA throughout the country.
12 October 2004: Nearly 12,000 Guatemalans, led by indigenous and campesino organizations, march in Guatemala City against DR-CAFTA. "The FTA will only bring more poverty to our country," said Daniel Pascual of the National Coordination of Campesino Organizations (CNOC, quoted in La Prensa).
11 January 2005: Several hundred representatives of the National October 20 Coalition protest at the U.S. Embassy against pressure by the U.S. government to rescind legislation on patent protections to make the Guatemalan law consistent with DR-CAFTA.
11 February 2005: More than 300 representatives of unions and family-farm and other civil-society organizations demonstrate at the national Congress to demand that the legislators authorize a popular consultation on the agreement rather than ratify it.
1 March 2005: More than 8,000 Guatemalans march to the Plaza of the Constitution to demand that legislators vote against DR-CAFTA and mining concessions to foreign companies.
El Salvador: Health Care, Labor Rights and Democracy
Despite the fact that El Salvador was the first country to ratify DR-CAFTA, it has also been the site of massive protests against the proposed accord. Hundreds of thousands of Salvadorans have participated in numerous protests against DR-CAFTA, expressing concerns about the potential impacts on the country's public health-care system, labor rights, and its future democratic development.
Perhaps the most explosive issue in recent years in El Salvador has been the proposed privatization of public health care. Since the late 1990s, the government has moved to weaken unions in the sector through huge layoffs and to contract out certain health-care services to private companies. In response, local unions organized a series of protests, culminating in a demonstration in March 2003 by some 250,000 people from a broad variety of sectors. The government was compelled to back down on those plans, although it has yet to fulfill promises to rehire workers who went on strike or to end private concessions being granted at public hospitals.
Based on the experiences of other countries that have privatized public-health services, Salvadorans are concerned that such plans will result in a sharp rise in prices for those essential services. The privatization plans are seen as precursors to DR-CAFTA, since once a service has been opened to contracts with private providers, the trade agreement would ban restrictions on foreign investment in that service. In addition, if a future government were to decide to reinstate the public provision of health care, under the terms of the agreement's investment chapter, it would be subject to potentially ruinous lawsuits by private companies alleging that such moves would undermine their potential profits.
Salvadorans have also expressed concerns that the proposed agreement would weaken protections for labor rights. Just before the vote in the Salvadoran Assembly, Human Rights Ombudsperson Beatrice Alamanni de Carrillo issued a public letter urging the Assembly not to rush through a vote on the accord. In the letter, she stated that her office had carried out an in-depth analysis of DR-CAFTA "that reflects the serious impact of the Agreement on the right to work and to organize trade unions -- despite the fact that the Agreement includes chapters on labor and the environment." The multisectoral Sinti Techan network issued a similar statement, decrying the fact that, rather than improve on existing labor-rights review mechanisms under the Generalized System of Preferences and the Caribbean Basin Initiative, "the agreement eliminates the verification of labor rights issues, instead substituting a rhetorical and unenforceable 'Labor Chapter'. As a result, the legitimate aspirations of millions of workers in the region for improvements in their working conditions become even more distant."
In February 2005, the Sinti Techan network presented a legal challenge to the ratification of DR-CAFTA, alleging that the agreement violates constitutional guarantees for labor rights, health care and other economic and social rights, and that it contradicts existing international commitments on regional integration and environmental protection. Despite its ratification in December in a legislative session held in the middle of the night, the public debate on DR-CAFTA in El Salvador is far from over.
Demonstrations against DR-CAFTA in El Salvador
24 March 2002: "Another Central America is Possible" forum is held in San Salvador. Hundreds of activists from the region gather to discuss the potential impacts of CAFTA. The forum results in the formation of the Central American Popular Bloc, which coordinates actions on CAFTA throughout the region.
17 September 2002: Salvadoran health-care workers declare a national strike against privatization, union busting and CAFTA, which they see as inter-related.
12 October 2002: Mobilizations are held throughout the region. Some 13,000 Salvadorans march and peacefully obstruct 11 border crossing points to protest CAFTA, Plan Puebla Panama and the FTAA.
22 October 2002: More than 150,000 Salvadorans march to protest plans to privatize health care and electricity, which are seen as key elements in the government's plans for CAFTA and Plan Puebla Panama.
9 January 2003: Tens of thousands of Salvadoran activists protest the formal initiation of CAFTA negotiations, which begin that week in Washington, DC. The protesters in San Salvador blockade roads and bridges, occupy the city's cathedral and block entrances to three factories controlled by transnational corporations.
6 February 2003: Some 125,000 Salvadorans march against the privatization of health care and CAFTA.
13 March 2003: Nearly 250,000 Salvadorans march again against the privatization of health care and CAFTA.
2 April 2003: Tens of thousands of protesters from all over Central America hold a rally outside the official CAFTA negotiating session being held in San Salvador.
10-12 December 2003: Over 2,000 Salvadoran farmers, students and other citizens' groups march to the capital to protest the final round of CAFTA negotiations being held that week in Washington, DC.
19-21 July 2004: Social movement leaders from throughout Central America meet in El Salvador at the fifth Mesoamerican Forum. Representatives of more than 700 organizations sign a petition against DR-CAFTA.
12 October 2004: Thousands of people mobilize against DR-CAFTA. Similar mobilizations are carried out on this day throughout Central America.
16 December 2004: Representatives of the MPR-12 network peacefully occupy the National Congress to voice their opposition to DR-CAFTA. Hundreds more gather outside the Congress.
22 December 2004: Activists block highways at ten locations across the country to protest the Salvadoran Assembly's ratification of DR-CAFTA.
Honduras: Trading Away Farms to Save Sweatshops?
Since Honduras was devastated by Hurricane Mitch in 1998, the economy has been slowly recovering, although the government estimates that nearly a third of the economically active population is still either unemployed or underemployed. Many of the arguments being made now in favor of DR-CAFTA's ratification assert that provisions in the agreement will save jobs in the country's maquila sector. They ignore, however, the potential impacts on the agricultural sector, which is the source of 36.6% of employment.
Some 120,000 people work in the Honduran maquila sector, primarily in textile exports. The recent expiration of quotas under the Multi-Fibre Arrangement means that those goods are now forced to compete with exports from China, where wages are even lower than in Honduras (and other Central American countries). DR-CAFTA's promoters insist that the tariff reductions under the agreement would give local textile exports a cost advantage that would allow those goods to continue to compete with the Chinese goods.
Honduran unions, family-farm organizations and other social movements question, however, the wisdom of continuing to favor that sector at the expense of agricultural production. During the 1990s, when agricultural tariffs and public support for agriculture were slashed, the maquila sector received tax holidays and subsidized services, including energy, port and other facilities. In a January 2005 letter to members of the Honduran Congress, four labor federations, the Honduran Popular Bloc, the National Campesino Council and 14 social movements state that, "it was a mistake to dismantle our national productive sector, destroying the agrarian reform process and the social sector of the economy and essentially betting everything on the maquilas. DR-CAFTA will not lead to any substantive changes in the maquila scheme. To the contrary, it will reinforce its current logic, making jobs even more precarious and demanding even more subsidies from the State (our people) in the hope of competing with China."
Raf Flores, a local analyst, points to the experience of rice production under the trade liberalization that has already taken place. Honduras was once self-sufficient in rice production; next year it will produce a mere 20 percent of local demand. Flores warns that if DR-CAFTA is implemented, some 700,000 farmers and their families could be thrown out of work and forced to seek employment elsewhere. In essence, he explains, provisions in the agreement could potentially protect 120,000 jobs at the expense of those 700,000.
These issues, as well as concerns that the agreement contradicts the Honduran constitution and would severely constrain the government's ability to implement development policies, are being echoed in the Honduran Congress. In a September letter to the U.S. Congress signed by 31 members of the Honduran Congress from all major political parties, the legislators assert, "DR-CAFTA is a pre-announced Mitch. The negative impacts on the Honduran population will be equal to or greater than the disasters caused by that hurricane in 1998...We urge you to vote no on DR-CAFTA."
Key Demonstrations against DR-CAFTA in Honduras
22-23 June 2002: Over 1,000 representatives of social movements from Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras meet in Choluteca, Honduras at the Mesoamerican Forum. They declare their rejection of CAFTA, the FTAA and Plan Puebla Panama and develop plans for public education and mobilization.
12 October 2002: Mobilizations are held throughout the region. In Honduras, marches in Tegucigalpa, San Pedro Sula and Choluteca draw thousands of people protesting CAFTA and the privatization of health care, water and education.
21-24 July 2003: More than 1,500 activists from Central America and Mexico attend the Fourth Mesoamerican Conference, "For People's Self-Determination and Resistance," in Tegucigalpa. The conference culminates in a march to the presidential palace attended by more than 10,000 people opposed to CAFTA and Plan Puebla Panama.
5 February 2004: More than 15,000 Hondurans mobilized by the Bloque Popular Hondureño demonstrate against CAFTA.
8 March 2004: Hundreds of Honduran women march in Tegucigalpa on International Women's Day, demanding greater political representation in the country and voicing their rejection of CAFTA.
12 March 2004: Some 3,000 Honduran consumer activists demonstrate against recent price increases and CAFTA.
20 March 2004: Some 4,000 Honduran activists, including a large contingent of indigenous people, demonstrate against CAFTA and the Iraq War.
1 May 2004: Demonstrations commemorating Labor Day take place throughout Central America. Some 15,000 Honduran workers take to the streets and present a list of 12 demands, including a call on the government not to ratify CAFTA.
2 July 2004: Honduran students, teachers and workers blockade streets in Tegucigalpa to protest the lack of any response by the government to the demands presented on 1 May.
28 September 2004: Members of the Bloque Popular deliver over 18,000 letters to the National Congress demanding that the legislators reject DR-CAFTA.
23-27 December 2004: A series of demonstrations and marches occur to protest plans to ratify DR-CAFTA during the holidays. Members of the Bloque Popular peacefully occupy the Congress to prevent a secret middle-of-the-night vote on the agreement.
11 February 2005: Hundreds of people attend the "People's Congress", urging legislators to reject DR-CAFTA.
Nicaragua: Agriculture and Water
Many Nicaraguans are deeply concerned that DR-CAFTA would devastate the country's food production and limit citizens' access to water, a commodity that many argue should be considered a basic human right.
The Nicaraguan economy is highly dependent on agriculture, even more so than other Central American economies. According Nicaraguan economist Adolfo Acevedo, agricultural production accounts for 28 percent of the country's GDP and 42 percent of employment (compared to an average of 26 percent in the rest of Central America). Corn, rice and beans are essential crops for many farmers, both as sources of income and food for their families.
Under the terms of DR-CAFTA, these farmers, most of whom lack credit, technical assistance and access to irrigation, would be forced to compete with highly productive, highly subsidized U.S. goods. According to Oxfam International's Carlos Galian, U.S. exports of corn to Nicaragua under DR-CAFTA could increase by 10,000 percent the first year alone. "In the final analysis," Acevedo concludes, "what is at stake for the long term is not just the possibility of preserving a large part of the national food production, assuring food sovereignty, or of losing the possibility of developing a multifunctional and sustainable rural economy, which on its own has fundamental importance, but the fate of the labor force itself, and, more deeply yet, the fate of the human beings linked to this production."
Nicaraguans are also concerned that the agreement would further the privatization of water, a proposal currently being promoted by the Inter-American Development Bank. The IDB water "modernization" proposal includes contracting out the management of water systems. Carlos Pacheco, Executive Director of the Center for International Studies, explains that, despite the government's claims that the agreement would not mandate privatization, the government procurement provisions in DR-CAFTA would require more than one third of the country's municipalities to open the management of their water systems to bidding by private, including foreign, companies.
So far, this proposal has been stalled because of massive public resistance. Ruth Herrera, coordinator of the Consumers' Defense Network, explains, "More than half of all Nicaraguans lack potable water in their homes. This vital service must be expanded and administered solely by the public sector in our country in the interests of the people and their household and productive activities and not as a commodity to be sold for profit. The Consumers' Defense Network is fighting against the privatization of water and water distribution management which is being pushed by the Inter-American Development Bank, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund and now by the provisions of CAFTA. We see access to water as a basic human right."
Protests against CAFTA in Nicaragua
16-18 July 2002: Third Mesoamerican Forum is held in Managua. More than 1,000 representatives from citizens' groups in Central American and Mexico gather to discuss strategies around CAFTA and Plan Puebla Panama.
12 October 2002: Mobilizations are held against CAFTA throughout the region. Thousands of Nicaraguans rally in Managua.
12 January 2003: Nicaraguan environmental and union activists gather outside the National Assembly to protest CAFTA. The groups call on legislators to reject the privatization of water (seen as a first step in the CAFTA process) and to demand genuine public participation in the CAFTA talks.
3-4 June 2003: More than 600 people representing the Central American Popular Bloc gather in Managua for a two-day strategy session on CAFTA. The meeting coincides with a round of official CAFTA talks, and protests are held in front of the hotel where the talks are being conducted.
18 September 2003: Some 10,000 Nicaraguans from unions and family-farm, women's youth, consumer, environmental and other citizens' organizations gather to protest the official CAFTA talks being held in Managua.
12 October 2004: Thousands of Nicaraguans march to protest water privatization and DR-CAFTA.

Costa Rica: Undermining Democracy and the Environment
Costa Rica is known for its long history of democracy, its relatively low levels of poverty, and its pristine national parks and natural resources. Unfortunately, each of these achievements could be threatened if DR-CAFTA were to be implemented.
The proposed opening of the telecommunications sector to foreign investment under DR-CAFTA has generated extensive public opposition. Costa Rica has a publicly owned electricity and telecommunications system that provides telephone services to 97 percent of the population at prices comparable to those in the United States and lower than those in any other Latin American country. Under the current system, profits from internet and cell-phone services are used to subsidize rural telephone services and internet services in public schools. Under DR-CAFTA, the internet and cellular phone services (the most profitable sectors, which are projected to grow the most in the next few years) would be opened to competition from foreign companies, leaving the public system with only regular phone service. This would likely result in sharp increases in prices to consumers and massive layoffs.
Costa Ricans were astonished that these provisions were included in the agreement, given the turmoil caused by a similar proposal just two years earlier. In 2000, President Miguel Angel Rodríguez (now charged with corruption arising from payments he received from Alcatel, a French telephone company), proposed the privatization of the Costa Rican Electricity Institute (ICE), which provides both energy and telecommunications services. People took to the streets in a series of massive protests and roadblocks lasting over two weeks, leading the national Congress to reject the proposal. The privatization plan appeared to have died until it suddenly appeared in the DR-CAFTA text during the last few days of negotiations.
Many Costa Ricans are also concerned that the investment provisions in DR-CAFTA could threaten the country's high environmental standards. The Costa Rican government recently denied the U.S.-based Harken Energy Corp. a permit to conduct offshore oil exploration because of a very negative environmental impact assessment of the proposed project (a normal requirement under Costa Rican law). Harken attempted to sue the Costa Rican government for US$57 billion (a figure that far exceeds the country's entire GDP) under the World Bank's International Convention for the Settlement of International Disputes (ICSID). Because Costa Rica is not a party to ICSID and has not signed a bilateral investment treaty with the United States, the government was able to avoid the ICSID arbitration process and remove the matter to its the local court system for resolution.
Ottón Solís, a former finance minister and current head of the progressive Partido de Acción Ciudadana said, "The U.S. promotes CAFTA as a tool to enhance democracy, but it would actually weaken our democratically built judicial institutions by creating supra-national mechanisms for U.S. companies to bypass our courts and sue governments when they believe their profits are being harmed by regulations." Solís, along with members of Congress from the three major political parties and tens of thousands of Costa Ricans who have taken to the streets to protest such measures, demand that DR-CAFTA be rejected and new talks for sustainable trade and development begin.
Key Mobilizations against CAFTA in Costa Rica
27 January 2003: Hundreds of Costa Rican activists from social movements, unions and environmental groups hold a peaceful protest against CAFTA parallel to the round of official negotiations being held in San Jose.
20 October 2003: More than 3,000 Costa Rican students, workers and activists march to the Congress to demand that it reject CAFTA.
21 November 2003: 5,000 Costa Rican telecommunications and insurance workers (sectors that would likely be privatized under CAFTA), along with students and other activists, march to Congress and to the Presidential Palace to express their opposition to CAFTA.
1 May 2004: Demonstrations commemorating Labor Day take place throughout the region. More than 6,000 Costa Ricans march against the privatization of public telecommunications and insurance services and the signing of CAFTA.
31 May 2004: Some 20,000 Costa Ricans march to the National Assembly to express their opposition to CAFTA. Legislator Gloria Valerín (PUSC, the majority party) vows to vote against the agreement, adding, "I am pleasantly surprised by the massive support for this effort by the Costa Rican people. Now it is our job to make sure more Deputies vote against CAFTA." (La Nación, 1 June 2004)
23-30 August 2004: Tens of thousands of Costa Ricans bring the country to a halt in demonstrations against a foreign company's control of vehicle inspection services, against the possible ratification of DR-CAFTA and for much needed wage increases. The government accedes to several of the protesters' demands, leading to resignations by four ministers (including the trade and finance ministers) and other top economic advisors.
12 October 2004: Nearly 30,000 Costa Ricans protest against DR-CAFTA and corruption scandals involving foreign investment in public utilities, especially the tele-communications sector. Two former presidents are charged with accepting bribes from foreign firms interested in investing in strategic sectors.

"The Artist" is 2011's critical darling film… the movie which was heralded from the moment it was released as being the frontrunner for the Academy Award for Best Picture. It's a (semi) silent film, shot in black and white, which tells the story of a star of the silent era silver screen. When Oscar noms were released yesterday, it received a whopping 10 nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director (Michel Hazanavicius), Best Actor (Jean Dujardin), and Best Supporting Actress (Bérénice Bejo).
The question I am here to answer now is… is it worth all the fuss?


text:
I hear you I paid Jan 30th.
No Queens, No communication, refund requested via email and no response.
Very much like the situation many dealt with last year.
I will keep you updated.
I also placed an order and paid in early January. My shipment was supposed to be for the 15th of April.
To date my emails go unanswered.
You know,,,I wouldn't even mind so much if I had one communication from him, but that hasn't happened.
I hope he is OK tho, maybe just too darn busy to go on the computer?
No communication from Dansk regarding 4/1/2014 delivery.
No response to emails, phone is never answered ( is it even connected?)
No queen delivery.
No refund.
I do not believe the sad story posts by Dansk in response to this thread.
Those who paid for a product that was not delivered are entitled to a refund, myself included.
It's really as simple as that, or it's robbery.
Well his Phone is off and his website is down take it that this guy just scammed us. Never got a reply or my money back.
I have not received bees or refund either.
I'm really tired of dirtbag thieves.
Here he is in the Orlando Weekly a couple of years ago.
Maybe they'd like to do a follow up story?
Last edited by clyderoad; 06-15-2014 at 07:53 PM. Reason: additional information
Yes I did file for mail fraud.
To all who tried to buy queens from this guy at Dansk Farms....
Seems there really is something wrong with his health, and has had a guardian appointed, Carla R., and she has issued me a full refund through paypal, for the 5 queens that I ordered early Jan. 2014, this morning.
When I hadn't received any confirmation or correspondence from Willingham, two members here on Beesource suggested sending an invoice for getting the refund thru paypal, or going the mail fraud route.
But filing a claim/dispute thru paypal didn't work, as we paid well over 30 days past, and weren't getting any support from them. So by sending an invoice thru paypal did help.
I am very thankful to his guardian, Carla, for being trustworthy, and sincerely hope Willingham recovers from his illness, and returns to good health soon.

Barry, please wait a couple of days and then move this thread to the appropriate forum or delete it at your discretion.
Dansk farms is run by Winburn Joseph Willingham (407) 965-5551 who was located in Winter Park Florida. He sells honey, pollen, and queen bees online. He took numerous orders between 2010 and 2014 that were not shipped. He has registered a new website and appears to be gearing up to do some of the same ripoff as last time. I suggest avoiding this guy as he has cheated numerous beesource members, me included. I ordered 4 queens for $103 2 years ago on order number 3252556904. They were not shipped and emails and phone calls were unanswered.
Here is his old website:

Maybe his time in the monastery has helped him see the light. Maybe he is now driven to go good in order to attain balance and peace. Did clip 5/5 show him smuggling in Danish queens? Pretty ballsie move grasshopper, posting he has Danish bees when all imports were made illeagal. The usda did get an exemption so they could bring in the Russian queens, Maybe he knows somebody at the usda, ya think?
Didn't watch the clip, but con men DO lie to make their con more convincing. Nothing ballsy about a bold-face lie, imo. After all, who is gonna be able to disprove it? and it does make the "merchandise" more attractive.
Thanks for the heads-up!
Rusty Hills Farm -- home of AQHA A Rusty Zipper and Rusty's Bees.
He sourced them from Canada where it is still possible to bring in queens from Europe. There are several suppliers in Canada who ship to the U.S. So while his advertising is misleading, he probably did get Buckfast stock from Canada who got them from Europe. There is no telling how long ago he got the source stock.he has Danish bees when all imports were made illegal

Willingham and Dansk Farms:
This guy is a liar and a thief.
I'm sorry for your bad experiences outlined above, but he sold me three or four queens as promised. :-)
...We don't see things as they are, we see things as WE are...
As a banker for 25 years here is my advice. Use your Visa or MasterCard when making purchases from companies you are not familiar with. You can dispute it and get the money back. If they do not accept either, buyer beware. I will admit I have bought queens with checks (Lauri and Olympic Wilderness Apiary to name a couple) with no problems but there is always risk in doing so. When in doubt, use the card.
Yeah, their new website shows better than the one from a couple of years ago. When I read that old site, it was obviously that something fishy was going on. However, I would still avoid this seller at all costs unless they do the right thing and back compensate all that lost money.

Reviews for this host's other properties
Small but very nice apartment near the city center. Except for some minor details, like only one towel for two persons over four nights and mostly russian sat-tv, everything was perfect for us.
Margaryta is very nice and she is willing to help you. The appartment is easy to reach by public transportations (busses, trams). It is situated in a good and quite area. The appartment is clean and has a basic needs for the guests.
Eventhough it was winter, we don't have any single probleem, as the heater worked very good.
Alles super!
We were greeted warmly, received information about all relevant issues (supermarket, metro, etc.) and a map.
Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen, erhielten Infos über alle wichtigen Punkte (Supermarkt, Metro, etc.) und einen Stadtplan.
The apartment is very spacious and very nice. Very good transport links to public transport (tram right outside the door), the main railway station, only a maximum of 5 minutes. Wenceslas Square is also just 5 minutes away. The agency is very helpful (eg, to find secure parking garage). Only those already raised by the Vorbesuchern bird droppings on the "smoking balcony" I find unbearable. I did not have a coffee maker (kettle was available)
Die Wohnung ist sehr großzügig eingerichtet und sehr schön. Sehr gute Verkehrsanbindung an öffentliche Verkehrsmittel (Straßenbahn direkt vor der Haustür), der Hauptbahnhof nur maximal 5 Minuten entfernt. Wenzelplatz ebenfalls nur 5 Minuten entfernt. Die Agentur ist sehr hilfsbereit (z.B. sicheres Parkhaus zu finden). Lediglich den bereits von den Vorbesuchern angesprochene Vogelkot auf dem "Raucherbalkon" finde ich unerträglich. Mir fehlte auch eine Kaffeemaschine (Wasserkocher war aber vorhanden)
We had a good time in the apartment. From the inside its clean, the furniture is modern and tasty but still very cosy - and the apartment as a whole is quite big. Only small deficits, like a slightly instable doorknob. All in all I still really recommend this apartment, esepcially for the cheap price, its awesome.
Spacious apartment with nice restaurants within walking distance. 7 minutes walk to Wencelas Square is not realistic. It is about 7 minutes walk to the nearest metro. I'm not a discerning traveler, but a clean bathroom very important to me. Unfortunately, this was not the case. The shower drain was clogged, causing the water (and dirt!) Do not run away and the bathroom after showering five minutes under water. I tried to host this call, but received no contact. Also my text messages are not answered. The bathroom dirty and bad service will make sure that I can not recommend this property. Too bad, because if the problem was neatly solved, I would have been very satisfied.
Ruim appartement met leuke restaurantjes op loopafstand. 7 minuten lopen naar het Wencelasplein is niet realistisch. Het is zo'n 7 minuten lopen naar de dichtstbijzijnde metro.
Ik ben niet zo'n kritische reiziger, maar een schone badkamer vind ik erg belangrijk. Helaas was dit niet het geval. Het doucheputje was verstopt, waardoor het water (en vuil!) niet wegliep en de badkamer na vijf minuten douchen onder water stond. Ik heb geprobeerd om de host hierover te bellen, maar kreeg geen contact. Ook mijn smsjes zijn niet beantwoord. De vieze badkamer en de slechte service zorgen er voor dat ik deze accommodatie niet kan aanraden. Jammer, want wanneer het probleem netjes was opgelost, zou ik erg tevreden zijn geweest.
Spacious apartment close to the center, everything is walking in Prague. Large bathroom and bedroom. Great accommodation in a nice area of Prague.
Ruim appartement vlakbij het centrum, alles is te lopen in Praag. Grote badkamer en slaapkamer. Prima accommodatie in een mooie buurt van Praag.
The apartment is located in a quiet street not far (about 15 minutes walk) from the center. It is quite OK for two people who do not spend much time at home. Everything was clean and the kitchen facilities were also sufficient.
Die Wohnung liegt in einer ruhigen Strasse nicht weit (ca. 15 min Fußweg) von der Altstadt. Sie ist ganz OK für zwei Personen, die nicht viel Zeit zu Hause verbringen. Alles war sauber und die Küchenausstattung war auch ausreichend.
Apartment was warm, beds comfortable and was in a good location to either walk into the Centre or get public transport. Man who gave us lifts to and from airport was lovely.
Unfortunately we had a few problems. Kettle and microwave were broken, only the kettle was replaced. The toilet leaked so not a pleasant smell and there were drainage problems. We were told it was just because it was an old building, but the shower got blocked, water came back up through kitchen sink (was probably why the dishwasher was dirty) and then toilet didn't flush properly. Unfortunately we would not choose to stay here again.

Direct-gas-fired-AHU components usually include housings, outside-air intakes, intake dampers, filters, burners, and supply fans.
AHU housing. AHU housings are made of galvanized or aluminized steel. Access panels are provided to access dampers, filters, burners, and fans/motors. AHUs located outside should be provided with a sloped roof and standing seam joints.
Outside-air intake hood/dampers. Outside-air intake hoods or weather hoods need to be designed for an installation's specific location and should be provided with bird screens. Outside-air intake isolation dampers are provided to prevent cold air from dropping through a unit into a warm building and warm air from escaping through a unit during colder months, when it is not in operation. Low-leakage parallel-blade isolation dampers are preferable. The fan discharge is an alternative isolation-damper location.
Filters. A filter cabinet normally has 30/30 filters (with a minimum efficiency reporting value [MERV] of 8) in a V-bank configuration to increase filter area and reduce static-pressure drop across the filters. Higher-efficiency filters normally are not used.
Burners. A burner consists of a cast-iron or aluminum pipe assembly with drilled gas orifices. The fuel/air mixture is controlled statically by perforated stainless-steel baffles attached to the pipe assembly. The burner can be placed in the outside-air stream only or in the outside/return mixed-air stream. However, to prevent potentially hazardous combustion byproducts of indoor-air contaminants, the burner should be placed in the outside-air stream only. The required airflow across the burner must be within a specific velocity range (typically 2,500 to 3,200 fpm) for proper combustion. For variable-airflow units, a modulating bypass damper or profile plate must maintain the airflow velocity within the specified velocity range. If the velocity is not maintained within the specified range, the burner can experience inefficient operation, generate odors in the occupied spaces served, and create an undesirable increase in certain products of combustion.
Most manufacturers provide a standard gas train with their units (Figure 5). Direct-fired gas trains have a substantial turndown burner capability--typically, in the 20-1 to 30-1 ratio range, which allows operation with 4 or 5 percent to 100 percent of rated capacity. Most direct gas-fired AHUs have a supply-air temperature between 50˚F and 100˚F. Variables that determine which gas train is used include burner-heating-capacity rating (British thermal units per hour), gas-supply pressure, whether the unit is listed (Edison Testing Laboratories Inc. or Underwriters Laboratories Inc. [UL]) or unlisted, code requirements, and the owner's insurance carrier's requirements. Some insurance carriers require that specific gas trains be provided.
|FIGURE 5. Standard gas train.
Fans. Fans typically are double width/double inlet (DWDI) with forward-curved or backward-inclined blades. Fans can come with open-drip-proof (ODP) or totally-enclosed-fan-cooled (TEFC) motors. Most manufacturers provide fans with a maximum external static pressure in the 2- to 3-in.-wg range. Because most supply-air temperatures are below 100˚F, fan motors and bearings are rated to handle lower temperatures. For applications that require supply-air temperatures higher than 110˚F, it is important to verify that motors and fan bearings are rated for maximum design operating temperatures when placed in draw-through configurations.

Festival D'Aix-en-Provence Presents 65th Season
The 65th annual Festival d'Aix-en-Provence, under the leadership of General Manager Bernard Foccroulle, will feature five opera productions, a selection of orchestral concerts, recitals, chamber music performances, world music programs, and more than 50 events from the 16th annual European Academy of Music. The Festival marks important milestones this year: Giuseppe Verdi and Richard Wagner's 200th birthday anniversaries; Benjamin Britten's centennial; the 50th anniversary of Francis Poulenc's death; and celebrates Marseille-Provence 2013, European Cultural Capital for the year. All events unfold in extraordinary venues, many of them open-air, in and around the picturesque ancient Provençal city: a Medieval archbishop's palace, an 18th century Italian-style theatre, a private courtyard hidden behind doors dating back to the time of Louis XV, and an 11th century Romanesque chapel inside the grounds of a Renaissance castle - as well as a state of the art, 1,350-seat theatre. The official portion of the Festival runs from July 4 to 27, 2013.
"For years, the Festival d'Aix has been eager to nurture the intersection of southern European, north African and Middle Eastern cultures," says Bernard Foccroulle. "This year, besides celebrating great anniversaries and giving our audiences an exceptional season, Marseille-Provence 2013, European Capital of Culture, has given us the opportunity to open ourselves up to Mediterranean cultures both near and distant. Besides an inter-cultural dialogue, the Festival's 2013 program also provides the opportunity for fertile exchanges between tradition and modernity and between historical legacies and the future."
The five 2013 productions continue the Festival's longtime reputation as one of the world's foremost opera producers. This season's program, which includes three new productions and a world premiere, spans the 17th through the 21st centuries. It offers a vast variety of musical and dramatic styles, exemplifying the triple mission of the Festival d'Aix-en-Provence: to present innovative productions of operatic classics; to support the creation of new works by today's leading composers; and to bring back forgotten masterpieces to the stage.
At the Grand Théâtre de Provence, stage director Patrice Chéreau and Esa-Pekka Salonen, conducting the Orchestre de Paris, take on the challenge of Richard Strauss' powerful Elektra, who will not rest until she has avenged the murder of her father Agamemnon. Hugo Von Hofmannstahl's libretto makes of Sophocles' ancient drama a searing statement on the human psyche, underlined by Strauss's muscular score. Singers Evelyn Herlitzius, Waltraud Meier, Adrianne Pieczonka and Mikhail Petrenko lead the outstanding cast. This new co-production with the Metropolitan Opera, Finnish National Opera, the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona and Berlin State Opera, features sets by Richard Peduzzi.
At the Théâtre de l'Archevêché, the new production of Giuseppe Verdi's masterful Rigoletto by Robert Carsen showcases a talented young cast that includes George Gagnidze, Irina Lungu, Giuseppe Filianoti, Arturo Chacon Cruz and Gábor Bretz in this popular adaptation of a Victor Hugo story about how a duke's jester sets off a tragic series of events when he tries to protect his daughter Gilda from the harsh realities of love. Maestro Gianandrea Noseda leads the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir and the London Symphony Orchestra.
Mozart's Don Giovanni returns to Aix in the acclaimed production by Dmitri Tcherniakov at the Théâtre de l'Archevêché. Marc Minkowski conducts the London Symphony Orchestra, with the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir as well as a cast of rising stars including Rod Gilfry, Kyle Ketelsen, Maria Bengtsson and Paul Groves in this much-lovEd Morality tale about a philanderer's just desserts adapted by Lorenzo da Ponte.
Returning to Aix following last season's triumph with Written on Skin, Katie Mitchell directs the world premiere of Portuguese composer Vasco Mendonça's The House Taken Over. With a libretto adapted by Sam Holcroft from the novel Casa Tomada by Julio Cortázar, the opera follows the psychologically dark story of a brother and sister whose lives grow ever narrower and more claustrophobic inside their ancestral home. The roles of the two siblings will be premiered by Oliver Dunn and Kitty Whately. Etienne Siebens will conduct the Asko|Schönberg Ensemble at the historic Domaine du Grand Saint-Jean, which eerily echoes the country house in Cortázar's story.
At the historically appropriate Théâtre du Jeu de Paume, musical director Leonardo Garcia Alarcon and stage director Jean-Yves Ruf recreate the first production in three-and-a-half centuries of Elena, a dramma per musica by Francesco Cavalli. The Helen of the title is the face that launched a thousand ships, but in the libretto by Giovanni Faustini, Menelaus, Theseus and Menestheus compete for the object of their desire. The 1659 Venice premiere of this opera was a success, and was revived in Palermo two years later. But though the libretto was published and the score copied at Cavalli's request, the complete opera was never performed again. The cast includes Emöke Barath, Valer Barna-Sabadus, Fernando Guimaraes and Solenn' Lavanant Linke.
The 2013 Festival's concert series will include symphonic performances at the Grand Théâtre de Provence featuring: the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gianandrea Noseda and tenor Ian Bostridge in works by Britten and Shostakovich; the Orchestre de Paris in a Beethoven and Wagner concert, led by Esa-Pekka Salonen with bass René Pape, a second program of Berlioz, De Falla, Ravel and Lalo with conductor Alain Altinoglu, mezzo-soprano Nora Gubisch and violinist Vadim Repin; and Lisbon's Coro Gulbenkian in a program of sacred choral music by Bach, de Almeida, Fauré, Poulenc, and Milhaud at Saint-Sauveur Cathedral.
Venezia, da camera e da chiesá - Sacred and Secular Venetian Music of the Seventeenth Century, will be performed by harpsichordist Jean-Marc Aymes and soprano Maria Cristina Kiehr, as well as singers and intrumentalists of the Académie européenne de musique. The concert will consist of the magnificent "new music" of Claudio Monteverdi, Francesco Cavalli and their Venetian peers. Also at the Church of Saint Jean de Malte, Aymes will offer an organ and harpsichord recital of works by composers such as Girolamo Frescobaldi, Andrea Gabrieli and Bernardo Storace, to show off the contrapuntally rich keyboard repertoire of early-baroque Venice, Rome and Naples.
Tunisian violinist-composer Jasser Haj Youssef and quartet will offer a concert celebrating his début album Sira, with the help of the Camerata of l'Orchestre des Jeunes de la Méditerranée. The musical styles include baroque, contemporary, jazz and world influences, reflecting the conclusion of a Mediterranean intercultural partnership workshop designed to expose youth orchestra participants to many genres of music.
The renowned Jerusalem Quartet will present two programs of works by Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, Smetana and Janácek. At the memorial of the Camp des Milles, Quatuor Béla presents a program of works of three central European composers whose lives were indelibly changed by Nazi Germany: Belá Bartók, who fled to the United States; György Ligeti, who lost nearly his whole family to deportation and extermination; and Czech Erwin Schulhoff, who died of exhaustion at the Wülzburg concentration camp.
As part of its world music programming in partnership with Marseille-Provence 2013, European Cultural Capital, the Festival presents cross-genre show AlefBa, which is the Persian term for alphabet. Under the artistic direction of Fabrizio Cassol, with ensemble, musicians and singers from Europe, Arab countries including Syria, Lebanon and Egypt, the concert will focus on the cultural aftermath of the Tahrir Square protests in Cairo. Eighteen months after the Arab Spring, Cairo has been a crucible of musical ferment as well, mixing traditional with modern and classical with dance and pop. Fabrizio Cassol has tapped into this musical energy to bring his audience an oratorio of the people - Tahrir-style.
16th Académie Européenne de Musique (European Academy of Music)
At the heart of the Festival d'Aix-en-Provence is a place devoted to musical training and sharing. The Festival has devoted part of its actions to train and promote young artists thanks to its Académie Européenne de Musique. Every year in June and July, the Académie welcomes young singers, instrumentalists and creators selected worldwide and wishing to further their training in Aix-en-Provence at seven residencies that run in June and July. Coming to work under the guidance of great artists and professors, they develop their vocal and instrumental interpretation as much as their talent for musical and scenic creation. The Académie usually welcomes approximately 8,000 spectators, and 2013 will offer the chance for them to discover approximately 200 young artists in almost 50 public events, including masterclasses, public performances, concerts and recitals, from June 3rd to July 27.
The Vocal Academy is open to singers and collaborative pianists finishing their studies and starting their professional career, frequently leading to roles in future Festival's productions. The 2013 residencies include work on Poulenc's Les Mamelles de Tirésias, art song, Mozart, Cavalli, and contemporary repertoire. The Academy of Chamber Music hosts a July residency for young professional ensembles wishing to expand their artistic horizons under the guidance of internationally renowned artists such as Andràs Keller and the Jerusalem String Quartet. The Opera Creation Workshop is a public conference held at the end of June and beginning of July to address the many facets of opera creation and interdisciplinary collaboration.

1. This one is complete hindsight, but still it makes me cringe thinking about it. Last year I drafted Gronk in the second to last round of my 12 man league. After the draft I dropped another guy and picked up Hernandez. This was before Gronk showed any signs of being, well, Gronk. Dropped Gronk after Week 1 when Hernandez put up a good stat line. I figured Hernandez was the better option as he is more of a hybrid WR/TE and they split him out sometimes as a WR instead of blocking which Gronk does more of. Then Gronk went Gronk on everyone, and you know the rest.
2. This year, I'm looking to pick up a bye-week filler WR in one of my public leagues aside from my 2 money leagues. Girlfriend called me on the phone and I got distracted and I ended up dropping Andre Brown whom is my handcuff to Bradshaw in one of my money leagues thinking I am in my public 10 team league where RBs are dropped every week (and I don't have Bradshaw in the public league). I realized after what I had done, and since I was the one who dropped him I couldn't put a waiver claim in when he became a FA. Someone snatched him up.
Anyone else?

An area of the U.S., primarily the South, that has an enormously large number of Protestants. It's also a stereotypical term that recognizes the far southern United States for its faith, morals and huge presence of Protestant denominations including the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), the world's largest Protestant denomination. This stereotype paints people in the region as Rednecks, NASCAR lovers, radical Bible thumpers, and narrowminded bigots.
The Bible Belt stereotype is most prevalent in rural areas of the South, however.

A place where the good ol'boys in the south are convinced they're goin to heaven even though the night before the banged their sister, cheated on their taxes, ate enough fried catfish to be called a gluton, and drank so much Busch beer they woke up on the front porch... and thats a typical saturday night right before sunday for someone that practices and believes the bible belt is the only way...most are ignorant baptist who refuse to change with society most of which are probably KKK members. you can spot these people pretty easily by their lack of intellect and refusal of anything modern...especially the belief once you believe your going to heaven WOW WOW thats a bold statement....

Let's start with the infield where all four starters have shown declining hitting skills over the past two seasons. Only Polanco cracked the .270 mark last season, and it was power-starved. Both Howard's and Utley's power stats have faded dramatically, and I doubt that Howard can come back as soon as the predicted May time frame. As a Northwestern University football fan, I watched their pre-season Heisman hopeful, Dan Persa, fail to return to top form from an achilles tendon injury after more than a year of recovery. Ryan Howard doesn't need the mobility of a quarterback, but his performance surely will be negatively affected. Chase Utley's physical issues have relegated him to average player status. Have they been resolved? If Polanco can avoid the injury bug, has he grown too long-of-tooth to hit .300?
Center field remains Victorino's to lose, but he has shown a tendency to fade in September. Is Mayberry ready to become the team's slugger in left field (and no doubt some first base) over a long season? Only Pence in right field seems solid.
The bench is completely new to the Phils. Does Thome have anything left in the tank? Can he play first base for two months and not not become the Phillies' latest Dr. Strangeglove?
The first three starting pitchers, on paper at least, still appear to be the best combo in baseball. But two of those starters are getting up in years, and it remains to be seen if Worley can repeat last year's performance that turned shaky in September. Can Blanton keep his ERA below 5.00? The bullpen seems solid, but Papelbon's arm has a lot of mileage on it, and he bombed in the clutch last September. They do have three lefties in the pen, a luxury that Charlie has never enjoyed, but Bastardo went from genius to klutz in a hurry last year. Who is the set-up man?
Over the past several seasons, the Phillies have feasted on division rivals, but ever other team except the Mets has improved in the off-season. Don't count on the Nationals being a doormat any more, and they could contend. The Braves have enough pitching to match the Phillies and a better bullpen, although their defense is not as good as the Phils'. The Marlins likewise have some good pitching, and their infield - if Ramirez and Reyes stay healthy and get along - has improved dramatically.
Last, I have been frustrated by Phillies' hitters continuing inability to hit according to situations. Only Utley can set up pitchers and take his walks. Howard and Rollins don't have a clue in that area, Victorino is almost as bad, and Polanco, for all his bat control, doesn't sport a great OBP. Unless they can up the team OBP and can get runners in from third with less than two out, they will lose many a game they should win.
Can they still win? Yes, but everyone will have to play their best. They are not a virtual sure thing this season.

Mediapart complies with ruling, but vows to fight on
At midnight on Monday, the French news website Mediapart complied with the Versailles court of appeal which last week ordered the site to withdraw articles referring to the Bettencourt recordings--the secret tapings of Liliane Bettencourt, the richest woman in France, by her butler. Mediapart as well as the newsweekly Le Point had been sued for violation of privacy by the Bettencourt family and by the L'Oréal heiress' legal tutor and fund manager, Patrice de Maistre. Le Point withdrew its articles on Friday.


text: Would like to discuss the possiblility of insulating a hive outside to keep it near the ideal wintering temperature. They say that the ideal wintering temperature is around 40 degrees, which permits the bees to move cluster to get to new food, but at the same time it is too cold for them to think about flying. So many hives are lost every winter to bees not being able to get to their food supplies because of prolonged extremely cold weather. If we could insulate to the point that the surface of the hive does not get below 35 or 40 degrees, then starvation would be nearly impossible assuming that there is plenty of food, the bees are healthy, and clusters are of sufficient size. So the hypothetical question is, is it possible to insulate enough to accomplish this and how would you do it? John

Students at a San Rafael elementary school were kept after hours Thursday while police looked for two possible burglary suspects in the area.
The suspected burglary was reported around 3 p.m in the Dominican neighborhood, where several suspicious men were seen around a home on Rafael Drive, said San Rafael police spokeswoman Margo Rohrbacher.
Police contacted one man in front of the home for questioning, and sought two other possible suspects who were seen running down Watt Avenue into an area with bushes and a creek. A search dog from the Novato Police Department was also called in.
Police asked Coleman Elementary School to keep its students inside during the search. Some parents who had come to pick up their children were either in the school with the children or waiting outside in their cars.
"We're all having food and watching movies and doing our best," said Inna Canziani, a parent of two Coleman students who was stuck inside the school.
The search was called off at about 5 p.m. and the students and parents were allowed to go home. The man police questioned, 21-year-old Tyrone Demond Robinson of San Rafael, was booked into the county jail on suspicion of burglary and conspiracy while police continued to investigate.
Parents waited for nearly two hours before officials began releasing their children, starting with first graders, from the school.
Parent Glenna Rice waited for her 9-year-old daughter outside the front of Coleman Elementary. Despite last week's school shootings in Connecticut, she said the response was large for the described crime.
"I think this is overreacting a little bit," Rice said.
Parent Gordon Neville agreed.
"It wasn't in the school, it was close by," Neville said. "This doesn't help."
Neville had been waiting at the school to pick up his two children and wife, who'd been helping out with a classroom holiday party.
Phyllis Secosky had been waiting just as long to pick up her 9-year-old granddaughter, but said she didn't mind. She said law enforcement officials entered the school with search dogs.
"I think it's precautionary," Secosky said.
Rohrbacher said the school lockdown was not influenced by last week's shootings in Newtown, Conn. She said police would have done it anyway because of the potential suspects in the neighborhood just as school was letting out at 3:15 p.m., and due to all the activity by police officers and search dogs.
"We would have taken that action in order to safeguard those kids," she said. "It was the prudent thing to do."
