Update 1 – Summits
Kenton Cool has reached the summit on Friday morning, May 25 abut 4:45 AM. He is preparing to send a live video update from the summit to the BBC. Check his Facebook page for more information.
Update 1.5: I just spoke with Kenton Cool's home team and the laptop went down due to the extreme cold so they will do an interview from C4 when the get down in a few hours. Kenton reported the winds were picking up bit overall a great day on Top of the World!
Adventure Consultants summited at 5:10 AM as they passed the Hillary Step, medicine making excellent time, they reported the winds have picked up a bit, but again this is semi-normal as the sun rises.
Also Peak Freaks reports their first summits at 5:15 with the rest of their entire team close behind.
The fourth wave of summits is underway. Teams have cleared the Balcony and are currently climbing the Southeast Ridge on the south or just below the Steps on the North.
Expect to read a lot of alarmist statement about crowds and more death (non reported) but let's see how the evening plays out. I hope it will return to the Everest of recent years. There is a lot of mis-information, and hype that is serving purposes other than climbing mountains right now. (my opinion)
The first wave was on May 16/17 when the ropes were fixed and the Chilean team summited. The second on 18/19, the third on 19/20 – these were just last weekend with the crowds and sadly 6 deaths between both the North (2) and South (4) sides.
Today, May 24 the fourth has started with summits expected tomorrow morning, May 25. The last wave will occur over May 25/26 wrapping up the season for most teams. There may be some final small team efforts on the North but unlikely. High winds are expected to return on Sunday.
For an overview of today, please visit my previous post I put up earlier today.
General Updates During Summits:
Please note I may update the site a few times a day during these summit pushes so you will receive several emails if you subscribed to receive updates. If you are wondering about a specific team or climber, please understand that I cannot follow everyone because most of the climbers and teams do not have websites or are not providing updates.
The normal practice is once the team summits, they report the results to the Nepal Ministry of Tourism and they eventually publish a press release or report – this can take days or months for the official report. Hopefully the team you are interested in will publish something through their hometown press if/when they summit.
Weather and Team Updates
Higher than wanted winds hit the teams as they were leaving the South Col but still within some teams safety margins. Others felt it is too strong and will wait for Friday night.
The reports are coming in of good progress thus far with good weather, clear skies and manageable winds. Adventures Consultants says they are at the Balcony in 4 hours which is excellent time and indicates no crowd issues for them. Kenton Cool reported in at the same spot a bit earlier.
The Benegas Brothers reported in that their team of 10 are at the Balcony and this post as they left the South Col:
The time has come! It is 8:45pm local time in Nepal and the BBE Everest Team of Willie Benegas, Hernan Carracedo, Pablo Betancourt, Fernando Grajales and Fernando Rodriguez de Hoz are soon to depart Camp 4 at the South Col of Everest. They are in the finest company of Climbing Sherpas Tendi Sherpa, Phurba Gyalgen Sherpa, Funuru Sherpa, Lhakpa Sonam Sherpa and Mingma Tenji Sherpa.
Peak Freaks reported their team of 12 has passed the Balcony and this earlier:
the forecasts looks really good. Climbers don't like to climb in wind over 20k and 30k+ is pushing it but some still do. Our forecast is showing to be wavering around 5 to 10k on the 24th night, and the team is reporting that they feel it calming considerably tonight already.
But Chris Klinke's home team posted he will wait 24 hours and go tomorrow night:
They are waiting one more day for a summit due to high winds (25 mph) and crowds. Winds at 25mph can really zap energy and put you at risk for frost bite, so they are going to hang out in their tents and attempt a summit early on Saturday morning (May 26th). Another factor is that there are about 140 people up at camp 4 (south col) and about 100 are attempting tonight. Hopefully tomorrow will be a bit less crowded.
Mountain Trip also reported they will wait 24 hours for the same reasons. There seems to be a wide range being reported on the actual number of climbers on the route tonight. I have seen from 70 to 150. In any event, with several teams delaying by 24 hours to Friday night, the risk of crowds at the bottlenecks is quickly going down. Dave Hahn's RMI team have also decided to wait it out at the South Col.
IMG and Asian Trekking's large Indian teams are at Camp 3 and will climb to the South Col tomorrow and begin their push Friday night with summits Saturday morning.
Climb On!

Any idea where the IMG Classic group is?
I can't get any news of the Summitclimb group going up now. Any spots on them? Or estimates. I knkow it is a small group.
From Jagged Globe http://www.jagged-globe.co.uk/news/despatches_list.html?id=39
08:43 25th May (GMT) – Summits on Everest and Lhotse!
We are happy to announce that eleven members of the Jagged Globe 2012 Everest team summited Everest this morning (Leader, David Hamilton (6th summit), climbers; Cian, Warner (first Costa Rican to summit Everest), Ian, Phil and Nick, plus Sherpas, Mingma (18th summit), Thundu (5th summit), Ang Di, Phurbu (3rd summit) and Tsering (5th summit).
They are all back at the South Col sleeping now. Bruno decided to turn around on the Triangular Face with Pumba and Brett reached c8,500m with Pasang, before descending.
The team left the South Col at 2015. David, Warner and Cian were on the summit at 0600, Phil and Ian summited at 0700 and Nick at 0800.
On Lhotse, Adele summited with Kilu Sherpa very quickly (not sure of exact time), having left Camp 4 at 0015. She is on her way down to Camp 2.
David said that the route was not as busy as they had expected. We'll update when we have more details. For now, congratulations to the teams!
Hi Alan,
Thank you for your blog. I have been following the news since weeks We were trekking in Nepal in April 2010 and are very interested what is going on in Nepal. We also read the pages written by Kari Kobler and Ueli Steck.
We whish all the teams who are on the way a safe summit, no strong winds and specially a safe way down !!!
good luck to everyone and thanks
regards from sunny switzerland, Susanne
congratulations to Kenton Cool for his summit & resolve to take Olympic Medal to the top. Would be interested for his talk in the face book. Eagerly awaiting for the most possibly final summit wave of this season.
However no information is there regarding North side further summit attempts.
Hi Alan, Thankyou for your blog. I have been following daily for weeks. My husband is with Peak Freaks and came so so close to the summit this morning. Had to turn back at Hiliary step with vision problems.
This blog has been a great source of information and insight into the goings on up there. It's been reassuring and alarming and exciting and ….everything! I know you say you're just a guy who likes to climb but you've really helped all of us at home who are waiting and wondering. And bringing awareness to a devastating disease at the same time.
Thanks and good on you.
Trudy. (Australia)
One of the Indian Women's team has summited!
Its out on the news now: http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/indian-army-mountaineering-team-successfully-summits-mount-everest-215726

Thank you Allan for sharing the great news always. Wishing for safe way down to BC to every one.

Can't wait to hear the news!!
Has anybody of the current climbers a GPS tracker?
Wishing you all a safe journey from Paris. Thanks again Alan, for your fabulous updates!
"Now we are at Everest Base Camp, we come down from the yellow bands. Tomorrow it will be a disaster. Today there was 210 climbers on the fixed ropes gong up. Impossible to pass, 6-7 people without oxygen and all the others with O2 from Camp 2! Tomorrow it is impossible for me to try without oxygen, with that impressive row I predict problems" . These the words of Simone Moro as soon as re-entered to the Everest base Camp, after having renounced definitively to try to summit Everest without oxygen and to try the Everest-Lhotse traverse. He almost reached the South Col but he was forced to re-enter to the base Camp stopped from too many people who, in these hours, crowd the normal way of climb Everest. " I have seen people that was not able to put the Jumar in the fixed rope and at every node called the sherpa in order to remove it and to replace in the rope. With all that people tomorrow will be a drama. I'm very sorry, I was in good shape, fast, no headache, but having 210 people when you come up or came down it is a suicide. It means to wait for hours with an high risk of frostbit". " Tomorrow there will be 200 persons who go up towards the summit – Moro concluded -, and the day after tomorrow others 100. They seem all driven crazy for Everest but the climber level is often shameful. Mine however does not want to be a claim. Everest belongs to all and that satisfied people and creates business in Nepal, but try to traverse Everest-Lhotse now is Impossible, I will try it in autumn or in other moment. Now it is crazy. There are people death all-around ".
Wishing them all a safe summit and safe decent, have everything crossed X Thanks for todays fab reports and insight.
Excellent, informed reporting always Alan. Very much appreciated.

I always seem to have little stashes of nuts that I find tucked away in the very back crevices of my cabinets. Leftovers from baklava, stir-fry, or cookies, they're normally little more than ½ a cup just hanging out in a baggie or plastic container. I try my best to gather them up to sprinkle on salads before they go rancid. Sometimes if I'm feeling really fancy, I will chop and throw them into rustic bread.
Last week I found some leftover Hazelnuts and knew these needed to be used for something special. I love Hazelnut's sweet, buttery flavor. They contain the same type of mono-saturated fat that olives do, so they're one of the healthier nuts you can eat. And because when roasted, their flavor increases, you don't need a lot of Hazelnuts to impart their rich flavor.
I thought I'd use them in Biscotti, since nothing says Sunday morning to me better than a cup of black tea flecked with ground hazelnuts. Biscotti, which means "twice baked," are the perfect accompaniment to a piping hot cup tea. Originally, Biscotti biscuits were baked two times so they would be dry and less perishable for long journeys. They were actually a staple food of the Roman Legions. Today, I love how dunking chunks of the biscuits in my drink softens them right up.
To help balance the nutty flavor of the Hazelnuts, I've tossed in some chopped Sour Cherries. Their tannic flavor works well with the milky Hazelnuts. While making Biscotti can take longer than normal biscuits, they store well in the freezer. I hope when you're enjoying them one lazy Sunday morning, you'll find these Biscotti worth the effort.
- ½ Cup of Chopped Hazelnuts
- ½ Cup of Chopped Dried Sour Cherries
- 1 Cup of Unbleached All Purpose Flour
- 1 Cup of Whole Wheat Flour
- ⅔ Cup of Torbano Sugar
- ½ Teaspoon of Baking Powder
- Pinch of Salt
- 3 Large Eggs
- 2 Egg Yokes
- 1 Teaspoon of Vanilla Extract
- 1 Egg, Beaten for Brushing
- Toast the Hazelnuts in a pan over medium heat until they are fragrant. Remove from heat, and set aside in bowl to cool.
- Preheat your oven to 350F. Spray a baking sheet with oil and lightly cover it with flour. Set the sheet aside for later.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the Flours, Sugar, Baking Powder, and Salt. In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the 3 Large Eggs, 2 Egg Yokes, and Vanilla Extract. Add the eggs into the Flour mixture and mix together with a fork until just combined. Pour the Hazelnuts and Cherries into the bowl with the dough, and using your hands, knead them evenly into the dough.
- Devide the dough into two equal parts, and make the shape of a wide log on the prepared baking sheet with each half. Lightly brush the tops of the logs with the remaining egg. Bake until the logs are firm, for about 35 minutes.
- Remove the logs from the oven and using oven mitts or kitchen towels, hold the logs, slicing them diagonally with a bread knife into 1 inch wide pieces. I like to do this on a cutting board so not to cut up my baking sheet. Once you have sliced up each log, place the pieces cut side facing up on the baking sheet. Return to the oven for an additional 10 minutes or until they are crisp.
- Remove Biscotti from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack. You can store the Biscotti for a week in an airtight container or freeze for 2 months. They make great hostess gifts in a tin with some tea as well.


text: PLANO, Texas, Feb. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Starting today, Ruffles, one of the flagship brands from PepsiCo's Frito-Lay division, is bringing guys the awesome flavor and delicious crunch of one of their favorite snack foods — beer-battered onion rings — to a potato chip. With the introduction of Ruffles MAX Beer-Battered Onion Ring flavored potato chips, guys can now load up on all of that crunchy, onion-y-flavored goodness they'd find at a bar or tailgate party with a snack designed to fuel any gathering. Tapping into a hot trend and just in time for the sports and party season, Ruffles MAX Beer-Battered Onion Ring flavored potato chips speak to the now-iconic American bar food. According to CNN's Eatocracy food blog, onion rings rank second only to their French-fried potato cousins in popularity. In other circles, the onion ring has gained more popularity than some of our favorite pop-culture icons, humorously showcased in social media memes across the web. "Guys live for those moments when they're hanging out together at a bar, diner or tailgate party trading epic stories and munching on their favorite snacks," explained Tony Matta, vice president of marketing, Frito-Lay North America. "Onion rings are one of those staple guy-get-together foods. We wanted to incorporate that flavor for guys to share for any impromptu gathering — just grab a bag off the shelf and throw a party with your crew." The Ruffles brand is going all out for guys as the calendar shifts from the quiet of winter to the party atmosphere of spring. College basketball is at its apex, Spring Break trips are underway, and the shenanigans of St. Patty's Day are upon us. Ruffles MAX Beer-Battered Onion Ring flavored potato chips offer a truly unapologetic snack experience that satisfies man hunger at just about any time.

Voter turnout in Routt County
Voting across Routt County was slow and steady Tuesday, observers at precincts reported.
It was a far cry from the madness of two years ago, Clerk and Recorder Kay Weinland said. That was the county's first year using electronic voting equipment, and there was no paper backup, she said. Delays at polling locations across the county led to lines of up to four hours for voters waiting to cast ballots in 2006.
"It was pretty overwhelming," Weinland said. "It was not a good day. The next day was a hard day to face the public."
She predicted that today would be much easier.
Figures showed that 13,110 of Routt County's 14,751 active, registered voters cast ballots this year, and more than 200 provisional ballots were outstanding Tuesday night. That amounts to about 90 percent turnout. In the 2004 presidential election, the Clerk and Recorder's Office showed that there were 12,793 active, registered voters in Routt County. Almost 11,500, or 90 percent, voted in that election.
An active voter is one who either voted in the county's last general election or has registered since then.
The county encouraged voters to cast ballots early or vote by mail this year. Nearly 4,500 people voted early, and Routt County mailed ballots to 6,650 voters, Weinland said last week.
The county received 92 percent of those mail-in ballots, she said Tuesday. Those votes, along with the early votes, had to be tallied by precinct after the polls closed at 7 p.m.
"That took as much data entry as the entire Election Day results," Weinland said.
Poll watcher Mark Fischer said the pace was relaxed at Centennial Hall in Steamboat Springs. He attributed the calm to the push for early and mail-in voting.
"I think it grows upon itself," Fischer said. "In my office, a few of us early voted, and we said that to others, and they said why not do it."
Centennial Hall had served 275 voters by about 5:30 p.m. Many of those were Colorado Mountain College students casting ballots for the first time, election judge Katie Fletcher said. Their instructors also hit the polls, Fischer said, adding that they puffed up with pride as their students participated in the historic vote.
Voters strolled through in steady streams during lunchtime Tuesday in southern and western Routt County.
Oak Creek Town Hall saw its biggest rush when the polls opened at 7 a.m., election officials and poll watchers said. Eighteen or 20 people were waiting outside the door, election official Verna Whaley said.
"I've sat in on a lot of (elections), and this one's about as busy as they get," she said.
Down the road at Yampa Town Hall, 112 voters had come through as of about 1 p.m.
"This is the most people I've seen in 20-some years I've been doing it," said Larry Bond, of Phippsburg, who was monitoring the electronic voting machines. "It's been a very heavy turnout."
About 10 people were waiting when the polls opened at 7 a.m., Bond said. Two student judges from Soroco High School were helping out. Senior Sarajane Rossi and junior Sean Price took signature cards from voters and asked whether they wanted to vote using machines or paper ballots.
They were excited to participate in a high-interest election.
"My cousin and one of my friends did the last election," Rossi said. "It was really slow. Nobody came. So this is entertaining."
Short waits such as the one in Yampa were common, Weinland said.
"We had a little bit of a backup early in the morning, maybe 10 minutes," she said. "The rest of the day there was no wait. It was awesome."
Voting ran smoothly in Hayden, election official Tina Fry reported. There had been no lines, she said, and voters were coming in steadily all day. About 290 people had voted as of about 2:30 p.m.
Moonhill Schoolhouse in Clark served about 180 people during the 12-hour balloting.
"This has been very smooth," election judge Diane White-Crane said. "I think everybody seems happy, enthusiastic."
The elections officials in Clark said they were proud of Weinland and her staff. Weinland returned the compliment.
"I'm so excited, and I'm so relieved," a calm-sounding Weinland said at about 10:30 p.m. "I'm so proud of my elections officers. They did a great job."

Jeanie Evans
Vacation is always better when we can bring our dogs :) The whole process of renting from Lee was smooth and easy. While this house is not considered luxury, it was exactly as pictured and suited our needs very well. The hiking trails and wineries are a close drive away. One of our favorite stops was Abbey Ridge. They have good brews and food and lots of space for dog frisbee. Hedmon winery had a delicious Norton and an added meat, cheese n olive plate for $2. Nice quick getaway for us. Lee responded immediately to our questions and as the other reviewers noted, the local eggs, bacon, milk, pastries and fruit were a delicious bonus. Thanks Lee!
My BFF and I enjoyed a week's stay at this quaint, quirky cabin. It was close to many of the wineries and great restaurants yet secluded enough for us to enjoy the birds and quiet countryside. Host Lee left us all the makings for a great country breakfast on our first day so we could enjoy a leisurely morning before taking in the local sites. Clean, basic accommodations at a reasonable price, and our 2 dogs had a great time in the fenced back yard! Hope to make another visit next year!
Excellent location to wineries. Nice fenced in yard for our dog with a nice fire pit. Can't wait to come back again for a longer stay.
The house was quaint & perfect for our weekend get-a-way! We loved the location, quiet, peaceful, and restful. The house was clean and well stocked with towels & kitchen items. We loved the breakfast food that Lee left for us in the fridge. The owner was great at communicating prior to our arrival & was very accommodating. Loved that we could bring the dogs on the trip!!! We cannot wait to go back!
Lee goes above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. We had bacon, eggs, milk, fruit, and pastries waiting for us in the fridge when we arrived. The house is extremely clean. Big fenced backyard which was great for our dog. Hot tub at night is very relaxing. Visited 9 of the local wineries in two days which was awesome. My wife and I love Shawnee area and always choose this place when we visit. You won't regret it!
Stayed here during the last week of March 2014 to do some early spring hiking in Shawnee National Forest – 2 adults, 2 teenage girls, and a dog. The house was conveniently located near the state parks and also the wineries. Everything was clean and tidy when we got there, and a fresh breakfast fixings package in the fridge was a wonderful and much appreciated bonus. Lee, the owner, stopped by the first morning to make sure we had everything we needed, including advice and information on the area. We travel everywhere with our dog, so finding dog-friendly vacation rental homes can be a challenge. This house has a fenced-in yard that our small/medium-sized dog could not escape from, plus the large deck has gates so we could enclose her up there if needed. The girls enjoyed having a room on the other side of the house from the master bedroom, each with their own bed. The master bedroom has sliding doors which also open out to the deck for a great morning view. The hot tub was clean and working well and there were plenty of towels available. The kitchen was completely stocked with everything we needed and the appliances were clean. The owner did a nice job taking an old small house and updating and adding to it to make it a modern, and charming, quirky cottage. No internet, but our Verizon cell phones worked fine. The weather was chilly this year, and the late March hiking trails at Giant City and other parks were extremely wet and muddy, but the waterfalls were flowing heavily, it was uncrowded, and the streams were a fun challenge to cross – plus there were no bugs or ticks out yet!
Bird Watching - great songbird migration season in May! Mushroom Festival - hunt for morel mushrooms! River to River Relay Race in April - 70 mile relay race.
Cedar Lake, know for great fishing, boat ramp just 10 miles away.

As we reported yesterday the awards just keep on coming for Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu, and today has brought him another as the Global Poker Index has revealed him as the best live tournament poker player of the last decade.
After already being revealed as the World Series Of Poker Player of the Year, the Bluff magazine Player of the Year, CardPlayer Player of the Year and finishing the year at the top of the Global Poker Index top 300 tournament poker players, this award would have been a little less expected.
Throughout the week the GPI has been counting down the best nine players of the decade starting with Phil Ivey in 9th place, including some big names such as JC Tran, Bertrand Grospellier, Barry Greenstein and Erik Seidel and then finishing up with the ever popular Daniel Negreanu.
We're delighted to announce @RealKidPoker has been declared the world's best tournament player of the last decade! pic.twitter.com/siDFRk8XkJ
— PokerStars (@PokerStars) January 3, 2014
Congrats to @RealKidPoker for being the number one on the GPI over the PAST DECADE!!
— Liv Boeree (@Liv_Boeree) January 4, 2014
Wow Congrats @RealKidPoker for winning GPI Player of the Decade!! #goodshow http://t.co/ux6oVrndVc
— Jonathan Duhamel (@JonathanDuhamel) January 3, 2014
The GPI did away with their events aging process that they usually use for their rankings and ranked players simply on all of the results in qualifying live tournaments over the past ten years. It certainly threw up some interesting results but after the year Negreanu just had, him finishing at the top was not really one of them.
Despite the amount of success he had in 2013, we know that Daniel will already be looking to 2014 and hoping he can get close to emulating last year.
The GPI's Countdown Of The Decades Best Players
9th) Phil Ivey – 5,422 pts
8th) J.C. Tran – 5,569 pts
7th) Shannon Shorr – 5,578 pts
6th) Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier – 5,778 pts
5th) John Juanda – 6,261 pts
4th) Barry Greenstein – 6,457 pts
3rd) Michael Mizrachi – 6,553 pts
2nd) Erik Seidel – 6,953 pts
1st) Daniel Negreanu – 7,377 pts

Kajol and I hardly discuss work at home: Ajay Devgn
"It is surprising that you are making a note of it now when I have worked on diverse films like Raincoat, Zakhm and Thakshak at regular intervals. Somehow all this news about me doing varied films is catching heat today when the fact remains that I have been working in such set ups even when not many were stepping out in this direction", protests Ajay.
Well, Ajay definitely has a point to make here. After all the two time National Award winning actor (for Zakhm and The Legend of Bhagat Singh) has just been modest enough to have possessed it all but not necessarily flaunted it. Moreover, a closer study of his two decade long career does suggest that in spite of a 'masala' beginning to his career, Ajay has truly experimented with Halla Bol, Omkara, Yuva, Gangaajal, Apaharan, Bhoot and Company as well, to name a new. Now the fact is that not many of these films can really be termed as the kinds that had an eye on turning out to be blockbusters at the box office.
However, if one looks at the remainder of 2010, Ajay's repertoire of films is nothing but envying. Comments a trade follower, "One has to look at the way Ajay has planned it all so well. Raajneeti is all set to mark a hat trick of winners for Ajay Devgn and Prakash Jha after Apaharan and Gangaajal. Once Upon A Time In Mumbai will follow soon after and the film is special since it brings together director Milan Luthria and Ajay together again after Kachche Dhaage."
"He is also working on Priyadarshan's Garam Hawa (along with Akshaye Khanna and Bipasha Basu) which seems like quite an interesting social-action entertainer. And then there is live-animation flick Toonpur Ka Superhero which is looking for an opportune release time as well. Ajay will certainly end the year on a high note since Rohit Shetty's Golmaal 3 should be a mega money spinner this Diwali", adds the expert.
Since Ajay is doing so much in his professional career, where does Kajol fit into picture? Does he seek any creative (or other inputs) from her during his decision making process?
"Well, Kajol and I hardly discuss work at home. This is why we never spoke about this movie as well", is all that Ajay is willing to comment on the subject. This actually sends out a strong signal once again that when it comes to his films, Ajay is more than willing to talk at length. However, the moment a conversation starts taking a tangential route and borders upon his personal life, the guard naturally goes up.
Coming back to lighter topics, now that he is all set to have an engaged 2010 ahead, is he pining for some rest?
"Certainly not! These are going to be exciting months ahead and I am actually going through 2-3 scripts which are sounding quite promising", Ajay eases up here, "As for my next film as a director, that would happen in due course of time. This has been a rather good going and I am enjoying it all."

What is the world and the cosmos? This is the basic question of Chinese philosophy.
Laozi, a thinker during the Spring and Autumn Period, was the first philosopher who tried to explain the basic question. According to Laozi, Dao, or "the Way", is the source and root of the Earth, heaven and everything between. The Way has no starting point and no end. The way is Nature itself and Nature itself is the Way.? Laozi borrowed the notion that "The Way follows Nature" to reveal a common yet profound truth: that all things and creatures in the world, including man and his society, have a natural character. Humans must obey the law of nature and should not put incessant demands on Nature. So it has become a mainstream rule in the traditional Chinese outlook on the world to "obey the laws of Nature and follow human desire." It is also an important ideological cornerstone of the architecture of China's culture.
Each of the hundred schools of thought that sprang up during the Spring and Autumn Period raised its own ideas of an ideal society.
For Laozi, his utopia was described as this: "Let your community be small, with only a few people? He said that "to do nothing is actually to do everything." A good ruler should do nothing but let people care for their own interests. Zhuangzi reiterated Laozi's idea and carried it further by advocating that one "follows the natural way" totally, without reservation. For Mozi, philanthropy?and non-aggression?should prevail in a utopia. Hanfeizi advanced the idea of combining law, politics and power to create an ideal society.
Mainstream thought about the ideal society of China is contained in the theories of Confucius. For Confucius, a world of great harmony would be a society made up of many individuals acting rationally, organized around a series of societal orders. Etiquette and benevolence are integral to the social theories of Confucius. Confucius taught that a set of orders and norms must be established. From the top ruler, to his ministers, to fathers and to sons, everyone must behave in a manner appropriate to his position and follow an ordained set of rules and guidelines. No word may be uttered, nor any behavior in breach of these rules and guidelines be contemplated.
The early sages in China believed that the family was the basic element of society. Since a family is bonded through blood, the relationship between father and son is the core of the relationship. This relationship is extended further, to encompass relationships between husband and wife, monarch and the subject, senior and junior and between friends: these are called the Five Cardinal Relationships, and they include most of the relationships between people in a society.
Confucius put forth benevolence as the highest standard of social ethics and the nation's moral benchmark when its welfare is at stake. He hoped that it would become the moral code for the Chinese people.
Mencius has taken Confucius' principle further, and raised the notion of righteousness as the core value and the supreme standard of ethics. For Mencius, among the five fundamental moral principles ?benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, intelligence and faith, righteousness was the core value. Righteousness implies justice and moral principles. Upholding righteousness has been one of the essential moral standards for the Chinese; this is in contrast to the principle of personal interest first.
Traditional Chinese political culture always adheres to a people-centered policy. That is why, in Chinese military culture, benevolence and justice are always used in an evaluation of a decision to go to war, in order to determine the probable benefit to the people. Chinese military culture uses benevolence and justice as guidance, and will not let war escalate out of control. The emphasis is not on its military strength, nor will it engage in uncontrolled violence - rather, it strives to win without fighting.

St Nikolas Hotel
Breakfast in the courtyard is proving to be a habit. Then off to the parade route, crowds, the ambience of a festival. Two loads of tourists from cruise ships added to the excitement in the streets; most stalls were open for business.
After lunch downtown we drifted home for a quiet afternoon. Marina showed us snapshots from 20 years ago when they were excavating their back courtyard to build part of the Hotel and they discovered Roman ruins about 8-10' down
Tonight we returned to a restaurant we used on our first night. The town is clamped down for the night. Tomorrow we get back in our rental car and drive south down the west coast.

Aliens real or fake
Article by: Berehulke
Status: Finished
Genre: Other
Aliens Real or Fake?
Since the beginning of mankind to the 25th Century aliens<et> and there spacecraft (UfO) have been seen entering our planet. Are these just humans dreaming or true fact? In the ancient times cave drawings show such UFO on the walls of their caves. From the first Cave drawing to late Egypt holographs, show pictures of ET and UFO. The astonishing part is that the aliens Look the same, same eyes same head, overall they have lots of similarities. Now im sure that is just every human dreaming of the same alien figure? I don't think so. Every human has their own imagination and idea's of what a ET would look like but for ancient civilizations that had no communication and had little idea of world events it seems unlikely that all the aliens would have a huge similarity. In 329 B.C. Alexander the Great historians recorded Alexander tried to cross the Indus river when he was intercepted by flying, gleaming silver shields. These flying shields swooped down on his cavalry several times, making both his soldiers and the enemy soldiers disperse in wild retreat. 7 years later while trying to invade the city of Tyre, another flying shield hovering over the battlefield, shot a beam of light at the fortified wall of the city, destroying a section of it, thus facilitating Alexander's conquest of the city. This event was recorded by both sides of this epic battle, making this event all the more credible? Your probably saying I want to see the real scroll? Well The scroll is hidden locked away, to hide the true facts.
So If The ancient civilizations don't convince you. Maybe some of the videos captured by the modern day video camera. Yes People can alter videos that is true. But if you research videos on youtube you will find hundreds of accounts. I searched the internet and videos for months And i found alot of evidence, but the most unique is a story about when in 1974 NASA sent out a message about our Planet, are DNA, how tall we are, that we live on the 3rd plant from the sun and a picture of how we transmit are message. 27 years later in Maldekian (Crop Circle) the aliens sent a message back, This message was writin in a crop circle in England. Way to large and complex for humans to complete in a night let along 1 month. The message referred to the code we sent out 27 years ago. It showed their DNA and how they look, how many planets they have and their population. They also left a picture at the bottom of their device they used to send there message. A year later in the same field they would create another crop circle. It was a huge picture of there species with a disk like a CD to the side.The Disk was decoded like a CD and there was a Message to us. The message stated ""Beware the bearers of false gifts and their broken promises. Much pain, but still time. Believe there is good out there .We oppose deception. Conduit closing". The Government didn't have time to cover it up before news and camera flooded the scene so they just said its a hoax. Then like the people we are we go back to our daily lifes not caring about real fax's .No way was it a hoax, no group could ever construct such a crop circle of such size and complexity in one night, a project that size would take up to 3 months with a hundred man team. But what could this message mean?
The Aleins Start out by saying "Beware the bearers of false gifts" In this line they are talking about are Government systems from all around the world holding unto truths of aliens, the aliens are referring "The Gift" to what Humans could really achieve if we all believed as a hole civilization their is more out there then just us. Then they say "and their broken promises". They still talk about our government here. They talk about how our government is using religion to control the theory that we are alone and god created earth. "Much Pain, But still time" Much pain refers to the pain and hurt it will be for the human race to except the fact we are not alone and it also refers to the pain we will endure from the lies of the Governments . "But still time" Meaning as advanced as we are we still have time to change the ways of our false assumptions on other life forms and how we run our planet. Then they say "Believe There is good out there" They are telling us that They only come to help and if we believe only good can come. Next they say "We oppose deception". Here they are talking about in the past how we have done roung to them, In military cases covered up there are told stories on The military shooting and destroying ufo crafts. They are basically saying if we invite them don't go and back stab them. Its also saying they will take action if needed but that is there last intention. "Conduit closing". This means they are ending their message they use the word "Conduit" because it means a communication from another life form. When taking this all into context they are telling our Government to break free and open up the books of lies they have kept locked up for so long. Will the government tell us the truth?
Why has the government not told the truth? There are several worries for our governments to come forth with such evidence. First evidence like this can send the human race racing for new beliefs this could cause mass rioting and this will damage the government system massively . Second religious groups would start disbanding and the hole idea of our one god would diminish. Religion and Politics have had a huge impact on what we are today. But their many lies are starting to creep up on them as humans grow more boxed by the rules of the government. The people as a hole will only become more cornered before we riot agenst or political systems. That time is close, in a few more decades our government system will be overthrown if they continue to rule as they are. The Goverment has "The Gift" to change us, hidden deep in their vaults lies stories and real encounters of aliens maybe even deals between our species have already been made. In 2009-2010 Famous asternout came forth on youtube his name Edgar Mitchell Apollo 14 he talks about his encounters of aliens and how the government has been covering aliens up since 1947 .He also asks the government to step forth. Another asternaut came forth Buzz Aldrin from Apollo 11 telling a storie of his alien sitting in space. Canadian Defence Minister Paul Hellyer also tells the government of the US to step forth with their evidence of UFO and aliens on camrea in 2008. Since Obama has came into power in the US many people have asked him if he would be the one to reveal the real truth about aliens.
From all the evidence I have found. Aliens are real and all the proof is starting to catch up with our government system. They can only cover this up for a little longer as more and more proof to the civilians of earth barrel in each day and that these sittings are really other life forms. Do your own research and see what you come up with. You will find out that the future of our civilization rests on "The Gift" we hold ,about the truth of other life forms that are in our solar system each day

When you walk through the front doors of Angora Café and catch a glimpse of eight small tables and a worn-out couch, you might be tempted to take your order to go.

The grilled-chicken-and-pesto sandwich ($5.25) has a perfectly tasty combination of tomatoes, sprouts, and romaine lettuce.

This recipe is inspired by a similar salad from The Pioneer Woman. I've frugalized it and tweaked it so that it's my very favorite salad – ever.
1 pound linguini, cooked according to package directions, rinsed and drained
4 grilled chicken breast halves, chopped
1/2 head green cabbage, shredded
1 head romaine lettuce, torn into bite sized pieces
1 red bell pepper, julienne cut
2 carrots, peeled and grated
3 green onions, chopped
1 can sliced water chestnuts
1/2 toasted slivered almonds
1 bunch cilantro, rinsed
6 Tablespoons soy sauce
2 1/2 Tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon crushed red papper flakes
1 teaspoon wasabi powder
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/4 cup sesame oil
3/4 cup vegetable oil
We like to serve all the elements separately: chicken, noodles, vegetables, and dressing. This way everyone can choose how much he wants to put on his plate. It is absolutely delicious.

mortar for bathtub
Our new whirlpool tub needs a mortar bed. Do we lay the mortar directly on the subfloor? We had planned to replace the current underlayment with ditra - can that go under the mortar, or is that just a waste of money?
Thank you for any assistance!
-Cheryl & Bill
Use masons mortar ---Right onto the subfloor---no benefit putting Ditra under the tub
No reason to spend the DITRA under the tub.
The mortar bed (usually sandmix) is placed directly on the floor but you should first put down a piece of plastic or roofing felt or something to separate the mix from the subfloor.:)
Oh' (speedy fingers) Mike.
Beat me to it.:laughing:
Thank you so much, Bud and Mike!
We are removing the walls, and just because its easier, are thinking of installing 1/4 drywall right over the existing ceiling. This would avoid having to move the insulation while we work. The house is a ranch. What are your thoughts on this? Could this action result in moisture buildup between the layers and problems down the road? The ceilings are plenty high - 8 feet.
We appreciate your help!
-Cheryl & Bill
Overlaying drywall is done all the time without issue.
You should be fine.----Mike----

I went to a club to celebrate my BF b-day on saturday and when i woke up on sunday my lower abdomen was swollen. It feels squishy. Should I be concerned?
Is It Okay to Go Club Dancing at 11 Weeks Post Op from Tummy Tuck
Doctor Answers 12
Swelling after TT, 11 weeks post op
At 11 weeks out, most patients are able to resume exercise and other normal activities. It's unlikely that you did any damage by dancing the night away at the club!
If the swelling persists, please check with your surgeon to make sure you don't have a small seroma or late-onset hematoma.
Good luck with your recovery!
Squishy tummy 11 weeks after abdominoplasty
Many patients notice swelling of the lower abdomen after surgery, especially when they have been very active.
I do think, however, that you should see your surgeon to make sure you have not developed a fluid collection that would require drainage.
Otherwise, at 11 weeks I would encourage you to be active - have fun dancing!
Exercise after tummy tuck
Typically I'll recommend that my patients limit their strenuous activied for six weeks after their surgery. Anything before then is pretty aggressive. Remember that you want your tissues to heal very well before just getting up and moving on. If you do your own thing despite recommendations then you run the risk of a widened scar or the wound opening up since you didn't pay attention.
good luck!

11 weeks post-op tummy tuck
Usually by 11 weeks you are "free" to go to anything. Remember that swelling will increase after alot of activity.
Web reference: http://www.stevenwallachmd.com
Enjoying your tummy tuck: dancing
You should be fine dancing 11 weeks after tummy tuck. However the squishy part does not sound right. Schedule a follow ip appointment with your plastic surgeon if it takes more than 24 hours to dissipate.
Web reference: http://www.bodysculptor.com/
Dancing after a tummy tuck
Certainly at almost 3 months after a tummy tuck it would be fine to go dancing. You should have no activity restrictions at that time.
Dancing after a TT
I do not think you have done any harm to your TT results. At eleven weeks you should be able to dance the night away. Your tissues, however, will swell with physical exertion for several more months. This tendency will eventually disappear.
Go ahead and dance
Most of my patients are able to resume vigorous activity six seeks after tummy tuck. That being said, you will still have some swelling even 11 weeks post op. If it doesn't resolve in a few days return to your surgeon for a quick check. It's uncommon, but some patients can accumulate a little pocket of swelling fluid. If it's a significant amount of fluid your surgeon may wish to aspirate it.
Dancing after a tummy tuck
Most of your body is healed after 6 weeks so if OK with your surgeon, dancing (and most other activity) after 11 weeks should be fine.
Recovery After Tummy Tuck
Most plastic surgeons will clear you to slowly resume activity as tolerated 5-6 weeks after surgery. If you are 11 weeks after tummy tuck surgery, it should be fine to go dancing. It is not uncommon to patients to experience swelling in their abdomen after strenuous activity. This should subside. However, if you feel like you may have some fluid in your lower abdomen, perhaps you may have a fluid collection/seroma. Please visit with your Plastic Surgeon for a postop check up. For the swelling, I would recommend wearing your compression garments.

Around the sardine factories of Cannery Row in Monterey, California, lived those who worked only when they had to, preferring to talk, fight, drink, and be lazy. These are the characters of Steinbeck's Cannery Row, who have been compared to the rogues depicted in English artist William Hogarth's engravings and in the picaresque novels of the eighteenth century.
Monterey is only a whisper away from Pacific Grove, where Steinbeck and his first wife lived in the early 1930's. The two worlds, however, are continents apart ideologically. Pacific Grove developed as a Methodist campground. One could not buy liquor there, and the sidewalks were deserted not long after sunset. Three miles away, Monterey's bars stayed open almost until dawn. The population of each town was distinct, although the communities were virtually adjacent.
Mack presides over a band of derelicts who live from one drink to the next, one fight to the next, and one day to the next. If earlier picaros lived their irresponsible lives in ways that advanced them socially and economically, Mack's boys do not. Their progress is strictly horizontal. They live by bartering, borrowing, stealing, and conning Lee Chong, the Chinese merchant. They are the street people of an earlier age, although some of them have shacks to retreat into when they must. One of them, Malloy, lives sometimes in a huge boiler that his wife has decorated with chintz curtains.
(The entire section is 486 words.)
InCannery Row, John Steinbeck depicts the precarious survival of a heterogeneous human community in the cannery section of Monterey, California. In emphasizing alternative values to capitalistic greed as the basis for that survival, Steinbeck implies that the only means by which peaceful amalgamation of diverse economic, cultural, and gender groups can occur is through community.
The diversity of Cannery Row is represented by Lee Chong, the Chinese grocer; by the varied group of European American young men, led by Mack, who maintain the Palace Flophouse; by Dora and her girls, prostitutes at the Bear Flag Restaurant; and by Doc, the scientist owner of Western Biological Laboratory. The novel's rather simple plot concerns efforts to give a surprise birthday party for Doc, the cohesive force within this community. The problems but eventual success of these efforts clarify the alternative values allowing the peaceful transcendence of differences.
The characters in the novel constitute a genuine community because they defy the capitalistic greed and exploitation of Cannery Row. Mack and his friends refuse to work in the canneries except intermittently, and only when there is a specific, emotionally worthwhile objective. Thus, they get jobs in order to acquire enough money for Doc's party, but quit immediately afterward. Doc says of the group, "They could ruin their lives and get money. . . . They just know the nature of...
(The entire section is 475 words.)
In 1930's Monterey, California, sits an abandoned structure near the noisy, smelly sardine factories and wharves that line the Cannery Row neighborhood along the Pacific Ocean waterfront. A good-natured vagrant named Mack, the leader of a gang of vagabonds who inhabit the structure and have named it the Palace Flophouse and Grill, persuades the men to give a party for Doc. Doc is a friendly marine biologist who operates the Western Biological Laboratory, a modest scientific enterprise.
Mack and his gang have no money for the proposed party for Doc, so they hatch a plan to gather the necessary resources. After first considering getting jobs, they unanimously dismiss that idea in favor of a more subtle plan that involves doing a supposed favor for Doc. Under Mack's leadership, the gang devises a scheme to approach Doc and offer its services in a frog-gathering operation. They would go into the countryside, collect as many frogs as possible, and then sell the amphibians to Doc at five cents each so he can embalm and retail them later as biological specimens. Lacking transportation, the men haggle out a deal with Lee Chong, a local grocer who is also their landlord, to borrow a dilapidated truck on the condition that they restore it into working order. After discussing the details with Chong, the men repair the truck and embark on a madcap frog-hunting expedition that forms one of the most amusing episodes in the novel.
Despite getting drunk along the way, trespassing on private property, and stealing wayward chickens from local ranchers, the gang succeeds in catching hundreds of frogs, an event that they mark as one of the most successful frog-catching expeditions in all history. The gang then returns in mock triumph to Cannery Row to celebrate their victory, yet they still lack the funds to throw their intended celebration. After approaching Chong, Mack works out another scheme in which he sells frogs to Chong as currency.
Many of the individuals who inhabit the Row have tragicomic stories. The debt-ridden Horace Abbeville commits suicide after deeding the building that eventually became Chong's grocery. Mr. and Mrs. Sam Malloy live destitute in an abandoned boiler that...

Support for Northern Ireland's paramilitaries will persist until politicians tackle endemic poverty and youth unemployment, the country's most senior policeman has warned, ahead of a huge security operation to protect next month's meeting of G8 world leaders.
Northern Ireland's Chief Constable, Matt Baggott, has pleaded for greater efforts in countering the economic and social roots of republican and loyalist violence and disorder.
The head of the Police Service of Northern Ireland, who is in charge of security at June's G8 summit in Fermanagh, urged politicians to focus on deep-seated deprivation.
Baggott's force continues to face problems from both the republican and loyalist sides, with the greatest risk to life coming from dissident republican splinter groups who continue to try to kill his officers.
In an interview he warned they pose a severe threat.
But loyalists have also been active, with protests over flag-flying over the last six months leading to disturbances in which well over 100 police officers were injured.
More than 160 loyalists have since been charged.
"Where I think politicians have a greater role to play is in addressing deep-seated social need as opposed to just dealing with the rhetoric of shared future. We need a lot more focused work in those difficult disadvantaged neighbourhoods where paramilitarism has its roots, to try to improve the life particularly of young people, and deal with the angst felt by working-class Protestantism and republicanism."
Baggott will be in overall charge of security at the G8 summit in Northern Ireland next month, for both his own force and 3600 officers brought in from Britain as reinforcements.
Preparations include a fleet of military helicopters for VIP visitors and the provision of hundreds of temporary cells in the event of disturbances.
Fears are the loyalists' controversial summer marching season will again result in riots.

Bell finished the regular season with a .339 batting average with a team-leading 11 home runs. He ha 15 doubles and 55 runs batted in.
Bell is expected to be taken in the Major League Baseball Draft in June.
Auburn head coach Tom Slater said. "He made a commitment to be our starting catcher this year and as the year went on he improved tremendously both at the plate and behind it. He did a really nice job of handling our pitching staff all year long."
If Auburn makes the NCAA Tournament field, which will be announced on Monday, Madden will have played a major role in that bid. He has the conference's best earned run average at 1.64. He has a 6-2 record with seven saves and has allowed just six extra base hits in 76 2/3 innings.
John Madden's senior season has been by far his finest as a collegian.
"John did a great job for us this year as our stopper," Slater says. "He has been tremendous for us all year long out of the bullpen and has been a guy we have been able to rely on all year."
Thomas hit .327 and leads the SEC with five triples. He has 21 stolen bases and has scored 62 runs, which is fourth in the conference. He is expected to be selected in the June draft.
Thomas was rewarded for his season by being voted onto the second team. One of only three players to start every game this season for the Tigers, he hit .327 as AUG everyday right fielder. His 62 runs scored is a career-high, and fourth in the conference, while his nine outfield assists leads AUG outfielders. He also leads the league with five triples and is second on the team with 21 stolen bases.
"Clete has done a great job this year and I am really proud of him," Slater says. "He has come to the park everyday and been a key component to our team all year."
Clete Thomas has been a key player for Auburn in recent seasons.
Auburn, which missed a spot in this week's SEC Tournament, has posted a 32-24 record this season. Auburn is 13-17 in conference games.
The Tigers are practicing on campus this week in anticipation of receiving an at-large NCAA Tournament bid thanks to a very high RPI built by playing one of the nation's toughest schedules. However, losing the tiebreaker to get into the SEC Tournament this week in Hoover was not helpful to AU's NCAA hopes.
Matt LaPorta of Florida has been named SEC Player of the Year and Luke Hochevar of Tennessee is the SEC Pitcher of the Year. UT's J.P. Arencibia won the award as the league's top freshman and Pat McMahon of Florida is the league's coach of the year.

Mille Lacs Band opens early education center
Mille Lacs Band opens new early education building
ONAMIA — The Mille Lacs Band will host a grand opening at 2:30 p.m. Friday for its new Wewinabi Early Education Center, which opened for classes on Sept. 4 adjacent to the District I Community Center, 43648 Virgo Road, Onamia, which is east of Highway 169 across from the Grand Casino Mille Lacs.
The new building reflects the growing demand for the band's Head Start and Early Head Start programs, which integrate Ojibwe language and cultural instruction into the standard curriculum. The 47,600-square-foot building has 17 classrooms, a gymnasium, a cultural room, large motor play areas, spaces to serve family needs and integrated storm shelters.
The Wewinabi Early Education Center incorporates several cutting-edge green features that make the building more energy-efficient, including a geothermal heating and cooling system, wind turbines, natural lighting, storm water treatment ponds and rain gardens.
Tammy Wickstrom, Mille Lacs Band early education director; Mike Moilanen, director of project management for the band's Community Development Department; and Peter Nayquonabe, Mille Lacs Band commissioner of administration, plan to be on hand.

Oak Creek Oak Creek's police focus group gave itself a deadline of June 1 to recommend what the town's future law enforcement should look like and to assist the Oak Creek Town Board with putting those plans into action.
But as the nine-member citizen group goes through the process, its recommendations may be constrained by the fact the town has only $120,000 to spend on whatever the group comes up with.
"We don't have a very good track record for policing," Police Commissioner Dave Ege said. "Maybe the biggest reason for that is that we can't attract the best candidates because of what we're constrained to" with the budget.
The town's budget can handle 1 1/2 to two officers at the most, without additional funding, Mayor J. Elliott said.
The most recent incarnation of the Oak Creek Police Department became defunct in October, when seasonal, part-time Officer Eileen Rossi left town for the winter. The town's embattled police chief, sergeant and code enforcement officer all resigned the previous month after no more than a year with Oak Creek.
In a work session with the Town Board on Thursday night, the police focus group was advised to explore everything from redeveloping a full Oak Creek Police Department to contracting for services with the Routt County Sheriff's Office.
An in-between solution that seemed to gain steam Thursday night was having at least one officer employed by the town to allow Oak Creek to enforce its municipal code and provide traffic control, even if the town opts to enter in a long-term contract with the Sheriff's Office for emergency services.
Routt County and Oak Creek have been unable to determine exactly what a long-term contract would cost. The difficulty had hinged on the Town Board wanting to see numbers before it can outline what services it wants, and the county has been unable to provide an estimate without knowing what the contract would include, Ege said.
Off-the-cuff estimates have been in the range of $50 to $75 an hour, and if the price ends up being that high, the money would be better spent on a local police force, Trustee Chuck Wisecup said.
"We've got to address the financial side of this before anything else," focus group member Walt Trout said. "There's no sense in looking for an officer if we can't pay him."
Law and order
The past three months with no local police have gone well in terms of emergency calls, whether that's coincidental or not, Wisecup said.
Dogs at large, snowmobiles on the road, and illegal U-turns and speeding on Main Street have been issues, but calls of a more serious nature have been handled just fine, he said.
The police focus group plans to gather public input with a mail-in survey, which will be sent out with the town's utility bills in February, and by hosting several public forums. The group set a target date of April 1 to come up with a town-specific job description so they can begin advertising if they choose to hire new officers.
"The process should be done very carefully, very methodically, with a lot of community input, and to get away from a lot of things that were done in the past," focus group member Ann Trout said.
In the past, the Oak Creek Police Department has had officers who said the right things to interview committees but who did not fit the town, focus group member David Bonfiglio said.
"We didn't approach it from what the town wants to see," Bonfiglio said. "We approached it from: 'Can you do the police job?'"
The focus group ultimately will not be making any hiring decisions, if that's where the exploration process leads, Trustee Josh Voorhis said. Hiring will be left up to the Town Board, though the focus group may be directed to play some role in an eventual interview process.

Family property in an old village with traditional food
The family of my grandmother was born in Boyacá, some in Tunja, the capital of Boyacá, and others in La Villa de Leyva. Since she went to "La Villa" a lot, my uncle a few years ago constructed their 2nd homes there. I try every time I go to Bogota, to spend a couple of days there and stay on his farm, those days are relaxing and spent with my family. The house has all the amenities of a hotel and in the afternoons we take a walk through its stone streets. Its cobbled streets makes you identify with the urban space in different ways stones are placed horizontally, requiring cars to decrease the speed while they drive through the village. The soil is horrible to walk around in with high heels and it is a appropriate time to go riding. It is not uncommon to see "cowboys" on their horses that are near the square when they come down and have a beer. It's funny because they usually walk around with jeans, a poncho and hat. There are many restaurants, offering the delights of the plateau, regional soups like the melting pot, the cuchuco, beef meats, and something special of the area is the sausage with arepa that can easily be bought in the broilers that are on the road. The mansions of the era are open to the public and in the rooms surrounding the central courtyard you can find shops and workshops where they exhibit and sell handicrafts, and you can sit and enjoy a local beer or juice. Getting to Villa de Leyva from the capital is not easy, and I say this is because of the condition of the roads where they even charge tolls, just ask Jano Montano.

2 Years Post Silicone Thigh Injections: Abscess Occurred and was Drained, Now Wanting BBL - Possible?
Doctor Answers 3
Buttock Fat Injections and Silicone Injected Thighs
It would depend on the quantity of silicone that is in your thighs and at what tissue level it is located. If there is not a large volume of foreign material and is located fairly superficial and not in the buttocks, then fat injections can be performed.
Web reference: http://www.eppleyplasticsurgery.com
Is BBL possible after silicone injection convocations
This is a difficult question to answer over a forum like this. The ultimate answer lies in your evaluation by a plastic surgeon by his/her clinical examination. The buttocks must be soft and free of scar tissue that will allow graft to heal and survive.

2 Years Post Silicone Thigh Injections: Abscess Occurred and was Drained, Now Wanting BBL - Possible?
I have removed foreign materials before and then performed the BBL later without issue. I would not perform the BBL in a patient who had injections of foreign material still present.

Flames NewsFlames Home > Wrestling Home > News
Coach's Corner with Jesse Castro
Following a successful run at the Southern Scuffle last week, LibertyFlames.com reporter Nick Pierce had a chance to sit down with wrestling head coach Jesse Castro earlier today for another Coach's Corner segment.
During the interview, Castro reviewed the team's performance at the Southern Scuffle and gave listeners a sneak peek into this weekend's Virginia Duals.
At last week's Southern Scuffle, Liberty placed 16th out of 31 teams, which turned out to be the same spot the Flames finished last year. However, this year's Southern Scuffle field was much stronger, featuring seven Top 25 programs and 53 wrestlers who were ranked in the Top 20 in their respective weight classes.
Individually, Frankie Gayeski spotlighted four grapplers who advanced to the second day of competition, doing so in the championship bracket. The redshirt senior, who currently ranks No. 22 in the country at 149 pounds according to D1CollegeWrestling.net, extended his personal 15-match winning streak to the semifinals, before losing a tough 2-1 decision, and eventually taking fourth in the event.
Joining Gayeski on the second day of action were three grapplers scrapping their way back through the wrestleback bracket in Joe Pantaleo (133 pounds), Shaun Smith (157 pounds) and Josh Pelletier (285 pounds). Pelletier was the lone member of the trio to post a victory on the second day, before the junior suffered his fourth loss of the season to a nationally ranked wrestler.
The Flames will continue to face some of the nation's best wrestling programs this weekend, when Liberty makes the trek across the Commonwealth to participate in the Virginia Duals for the third time in four years.
Celebrating its 30th year of competition, the Virginia Duals has drawn its strongest field during the past three decades of competition. Nine of the 16 teams in the National College Tournament bracket are currently ranked in the Top 25.
Liberty will have one of the toughest first round match-up at the Duals, as the Flames drew its top-ranked team in the event, Oklahoma State. The Cowboys, currently ranked No. 4 in the country, have nine of their 10 starters currently ranked individually in the Top 20 in their respective weight classes, including senior heavyweight Jared Rosholt, who finished third at last year's nationals and currently ranks No. 2 at 285 pounds.
Should the Flames post an upset over Oklahoma State, Liberty would advance to face the victor in the No. 23 Old Dominion vs. Clarion matchup, while the two losers would face each other to begin the consolation bracket on Friday.
