Christ's Victory Over Man-Made Religion
12/10/2007 / Christian Living
Be encouraged that the Christ was raised amidst the most religiously hindered people in the world, yet He used these same people to spark a worldwide spiritual fire.
The Jewish people of the first century where part of a religious tradition so hopelessly engrained in self-centeredness that they reserved the exclusive right to hoard all the answers for themselves. They thought God was impressed by their religion. However it was for their know-it-all mentality that they remained utterly clueless about God's priorities. The same thing applies to us modern, callused Christians. In Christ, we can embrace this truth and at the same time find encouragement.
We can look hopefully upon ourselves only so far as it reminds us how God chooses some of the most unlikely, weak, hard-hearted people the world has ever known to make His greatness all the more obvious.
We religious Americans resemble the Jewish nation of New Testament times both in our callousness as well as in our horrifying treatment of Jesus Christ. The Jews rejected Him because He didn't fit their small-minded bill. So also we western Christians crucify the Lord on a regular basis with our rebellious faith-performances. If Christ came to the United States again in bodily form, we would have to either give up all the religion we hold dear or we'd have to reject and kill Him to preserve our traditions.
Therefore we have encouragement in God's irresistible grace. He has a track record of using the most stubborn, religious hearts to benefit of His eternal goals. For example, Jewish-background believers accomplished some of the most widespread, ground-breaking work for God's kingdom soon after Christ's resurrection. God used those first few Jewish believers to send such shockwaves through the greater, unsuspecting, gentile world that we are still feeling their effects today. Who would have guessed? Not only did God spare those rebellious, little people, He also transformed their stubborn hearts and then put them to work advancing His world-wide kingdom. In light of all this, we might dare to esteem ourselves useful to God. We Americans are not out of reach of God's grace.
Be encouraged also by all the prophets that went before Christ who seemed to accomplish nothing more than rejection, suffering and, ultimately, getting themselves killed. Christ's ministry on earth also seemed to end horrendously. But God draws miraculous success out the most unexpected scenarios, a truth that is epitomized for all time in His Son's resurrection from the dead. The prophets and finally Christ obeyed God by dying so that there would be no doubt that God alone accomplishes our spiritual success.
Prophets of old and then finally Jesus Himself died fleshly deaths from which God grew glorious, renewing, spiritual growth. Christ's faithfulness in particular was the crown of all spiritual success forever. Such heavenly, Spirit-led victory flies in the face of all the hopeless self-destructiveness of men, who have been hell-bent from Adam onward.
Christ conquers situations which, in men's estimation, seem beyond hopeless. He triumphs over heinous tragedy and shameful death so far as to use it for His own eternal glory.
And Jesus is still making all things possible for those of us who belong to Him. He continues to be the same just as God is still the same Lord over all.
Therefore, shouldn't we Americans trust Him to establish His kingdom here in our own land, right now? If He is not the same Fullness of God that He has always been, then we have believed in vain, and we might as well eat, drink and be merry with the remainder of our futile existence.
Can the kingdom of God exist here in the United States or in any other society affected by westernization? Can men and women in westernized societies have anything to do with Christ?

An accused sex offender from the West Coast was able to adopt a new name and flee to Australia because a Ministry of Justice employee ticked the wrong box on a form, an internal review has revealed.
The 42-year-old Christchurch man was supposed to appear before a Greymouth District Court jury in late January on charges of sexually abusing his daughter over an eight-month period while working on a Greymouth farm.
The trial was aborted when police discovered the man got married while on bail, obtained a new passport under his new wife's surname, cut off his electronic bail bracelet and fled the country.
The police investigation into his whereabouts is ongoing.
The incident caused a round of finger-pointing that included the Ministry of Justice, Greymouth Courthouse and the Department of Internal Affairs.
District Courts manager Tony Fisher initially blamed Greymouth Courthouse staff, saying they should have sent a letter to Internal Affairs advising them the offender should not be granted a passport.
The Sensible Sentencing Trust blamed Judge Raoul Neave for granting electronically-monitored bail in the first place.
The New Zealand Herald reported that a letter advising of the correct bail conditions was not sent to Internal Affairs until January 25, after the man had already left the country.
However, a Ministry of Justice spokesman confirmed yesterday that a full review of the ministry's internal systems showed it was caused by human error. The printed bail bond indicated the man's passport should be surrendered to the court, but Judge Neave had not actually made the order. It was a case of a court staff member ticking the wrong box on an electronic form, which meant the bail bond contained incorrect information, the spokesman said.
As a result, police mistakenly believed the man would not be able to obtain a passport to leave the country.
The Greymouth District Court registrar was not in error because an order to surrender the passport was never mentioned in court, the spokesman said.
The Ministry of Justice spokesman said that since the incident, ministry staff had been given additional training. They were now confident a similar error would not happen again.
Department of Internal Affairs spokesman Michael Meade said preventing passport fraud was taken "extremely seriously", with a series of checks and balances for every application.
"The case has highlighted the need for agencies to continue to work closely together to make sure processes are tightly aligned."
The offender had 17 previous convictions, mainly for family violence. He had name suppression to protect the identity of his daughter.

LGF is looking decent. It broke out of the $6.75 ceiling resistance level and long term downtrend from 2008. It could be headed towards $8.50 if it can keep up strength and momentum. There's definitely gap back-fill risk to $6.50 if the relative strength index rolls over on strong volume. MACD is looking strong for now. Of course "Icahn" risk must be hedged as well (see WCI).

If you are shooting w/ your shoulders squared to the target, I would try turning so that your strong side is back and weak side is closer to the target. This gives you a straighter strong side arm, bent weak side arm, and the gun is a little closer to your face. It might be a nice compromise between the arms straight and arms bent versions of what you were doing.
I'd recommend video taping yourself shooting. You can this watch this in slow motion and might see something else you are doing.

The name of this website refers to Limnophila aromatic, an aromatic plant commonly found in flooded rice fields, so the English common name is rice paddy herb. We love this herb for its distinctive floral flavor and its versatility: its bright sweet flavor is a great addition to phở (beef noodle soup) as well as soups featuring fish and yams. We have also found out through experimentation that it works very well in desserts.
Even though it is found throughout Southeast Asia, it is only prominently used in Vietnamese cuisine, probably because of our love affair with fresh herbs. Large plates of fresh, raw vegetables and herbs are quintessentially Vietnamese edible centerpieces. Yet, this distinctive element is often overlooked in restaurants seeking to introduce Vietnamese cuisine to a wider audience. Through this website, we intend to share our adventures in cooking while shedding light on other distinctive but similarly overlooked aspects of Vietnamese cuisine.

I am writing today to express my frustration with my T-Mobile experience. I was really excited to switch in my old phone and service(credo) and switch to T-Mobile and have my own account. It all went well at first in the store but as i tried to get it activated, it was one headache after another, taking three days to get the issue resolved and once it did guess what? I don't get service in my part og Guerneville, CA. After dealing with that whole process of getting my phone activated, the last thing i wanted to do was return my phone and go through the whole process again and switch back, so i found a workaround using google voice, fine i say. Its not ideal but it will do, my calls are forwarded to my phone through wifi, which works most of the time. I'm worried if there was an accident, i might not be able to call 911 but we have a house phone so it shouldn't be a problem except if we lose power, which we do a lot. [continued below]....

"In honor of Moose (05-318)"
November 15, 2012
Charlie is a 13 month old Golden mix. Charlie was surrendered by a good samaritan who has been keeping an eye on him since he was born a year ago. Thanks so much to Denise and Joyce for their wonderful care of Charlie and their generous donation to RAGOM for his future vet bills! So very thoughtful of you both! Thanks to fellow foster Gretchen and her family for keeping Charlie overnight too!
This sweet boy came into RAGOM because he has some bad hips and maybe a bad knee too. Poor guy is in pain and has difficulty bearing weight on his back left leg. We have been in touch with our ortho surgeon who is recommending weight loss before determining the need for surgery. We are working on that already and Charlie seems not to mind the green bean diet! He is getting some anti-inflammatory meds for the pain and they help a lot.
Charlie is current on vaccinations and is neutered. He had an accident in the house but has since learned outdoors is a better place for that business. We chock it up to not knowing how to communicate with each other about those needs!
Charlie is still a youngster and after two days of free roam with the rest of the pack, he got bored and chewed up some items. So he earned himself a crate while we are at work. He gets a break when the dog walkers come and he goes into his crate easily when you throw a treat in. There are 4 other dogs in the house at the moment and Charlie met them all with perfect doggie etiquette! Even the crabby old girl Scout who snarks at every new foster. Not a mean bone in this boy's body! Charlie will go to the vet tomorrow for X-rays of his knees and the usual wellness exam. He has a bit of a road ahead of him but you must come meet him in person! He will be at the Chuck and Don's event this Saturday with foster brother Henri 12-347.
Charlie went to the vet this past week and had more X-rays taken. His knees are fine and so we confirmed the limping is from the left hip. We consulted with Dr. Rasmussen and she recommended a triple pelvic osteotomy. Charlie will have the surgery on the 26th and spend a few weeks rehabbing. After that we will get to see the true youngster in this boy! He so wants to play and run--and he does but has NO staying power with the faulty hip. This is a very expensive surgery so Charlie is really hoping that a special angel will step up and sponsor him :)
Charlie went to the meet and greet this past Saturday too and enjoyed all of the attention. Everyone thought he was a very handsome boy. We were trying to guess what he is mixed with. I thought Great Pyrenees but, hey, we don't check DNA! He looks bigger than he is too. He has a very thick coat right now but only weighs 75 pounds.
If Charlie's hips scare you off, I can share my own experience. My RAGOM girl Scout had this same hip surgery as a puppy and she is a very active 12 year old senior now! In fact, she is the dog that plays the most with my foster puppies. She can get the zoomies with the best of them. She is showing signs of slowing down but what would you expect?
Charlie is a sweet boy and gets along with all dogs. I am not sure about cats but I fully expect he would be fine and learn that they deserve respect too. I don't think he needs a fence and would be fine on a tie out or easily trained to stay in his yard. He is very responsive to training. He doesn't counter surf. He likes the teenager that comes to visit and loved the attention of a fellow volunteer's younger (10) child. I think he would be OK with kids.
Doesn't he sound just about perfect? He will be when his hips are fixed. Can't wait to see him run like a normal young dog!
Please keep your paws crossed for sweet Charlie! Tomorrow is his big surgery. Thank you so much to fellow fosters Kris and Barb for keeping him for me and getting him to the vet. Kisses from his foster Mom in New Ulm!
Sweet Charlie had his hip surgery and it was a tough one. The surgeon is cautiously optimistic that he will have full function without a limp. We are working hard on his rehab to make sure this is the case! He is quite painful so receiving pain meds. Right now he is not allowed to do stairs without support under his hind end. So we put a towel under his belly and walk him up and down the stairs to get outside. He patiently waits for the towel to be placed before moving out the door. Once outside he can walk without assistance but only on a leash--no running or jumping until it all heals in about 6-8 weeks. He will have follow up X-rays in 6 weeks to check progress.
Charlie also had a mass on his tongue that was removed and sent for pathology. The doctor doesn't have a guess about what it is but we are keeping our paws crossed that it was nothing! It would be unusual for such a young dog to have anything horrible going on so that gives me hope. We will have the report next week.
He remains as sweet as ever! Prefers to be in his crate most of the time but is eating well and giving kisses and tail wags. He has woken us all up each night crying which breaks my heart! I know that will diminish as the swelling goes down.
Keep Charlie in your thoughts and if you are considering sponsoring a dog, Charlie would be an awesome candidate :)
Charlie's tongue mass turned out to be nothing serious! Woohoo! It was embedded foreign material that is not uncommon in long haired dogs. Likely, it was a burr he was trying to remove from his fur that stuck in his tongue. Such good news!
He is feeling quite a bit better and I can tell this because he wants to run with the other dogs. He also spends less time in his crate and less time whining. I think he will always be a vocal dog. We are still supporting his hip for stairs but he is walking around more. He is more willing to let me do the range of motion exercises on his leg which will help in the long run. And of course, he still gives plenty of tail wags and but wiggles whenever you look at him or talk to him!
Charlie gives a big 'WOOF' and kisses to Tom D for sponsoring him in honor of Moose. Charlie read Moose story and so wishes he could have met him in person!
It is generous donors like you, Tom that keep RAGOM going and allows us to help sweet boys like Charlie. We can't thank you enough for your thoughtfulness!
Charlie loves, loves loves the snow! I feel so bad for him because he can't play in it yet. He tucks his butt under like he is going to tear around but the leash stops him. He play bows in it and tries to catch the flakes in his mouth. So darn cute! He is 75 pounds of puppy still!
He is feeling really good on his legs but it is still to early to let him go. We are still supporting his back legs with a towel but he is very sturdy on his feet and uses his leg. He doesn't bear full weight but I am sure it won't be long. Charlie will need lots of exercise to get the muscles in his back legs built up again. The muscles and keeping him lean will help keep the hip stable and minimize any pain he has.
Charlie will be moving to a foster in the metro so that a family that is interested in him can meet him. Keep your paws crossed!
A good shot of his leg
Is that red snow??
Charlie got an early Christmas present this year and found his forever home! He will get to grow up in a home with two little boys and a wonderful mom and dad. Because he is only a few weeks into his recovery from his hip surgery, we get to enjoy him until the middle of February, but I am so happy there is his own forever family waiting for him.
Charlie went home tonight with the most wonderful family. They have been waiting for him to finish his rehab. When his x-rays came back showing that he was all healed and ready to go, he was on his way to living his new life. The best part for me is that we get to see him again in just a few weeks when we babysit while his family goes on vacation.
Hope you are feeling lots better! Love from your other non-Golden friend, Nugget

I had something very odd happen over the weekend when I installed these onto my '09 WRX and I am curious if anyone else has run into anything while installing these or something like them.
On the front portion of the crossmember there is a plate that has 2 bolts that are connected to it like a "U". I pulled it apart and put the new bushings in and replaced the nuts to hold everything together. The torque spec for these nuts is 51 ft/lbs. As I was tightening up the nuts, I made it to about 40-43 ft/lbs and it took the threads off of the bolts. After a bit of work I was able to get the pieces apart and I made a new plate out of mild steel strap. I then used brand new grade 10.9 hardened metric bolts, according to spec these are also rated to 51 ft/lbs. When I tigtened everything up I again it made it back to that 40-43 ft/lbs and this time it stretched the bolt. I replaced the bolts then just took it upto the high 30's in ft/lbs and called it good. When I did the other end of the crossmember I tried to take the 2 bolts up to torque and once I got back to that 40'ish ft'lbs I could feel it start to give and I stopped. Also none of the bolts were lubed with anti-seize or anything, they were all dry. I checked this with 2 different torque wrenches and they were both exactly the same so I don't think it was a matter of the wrench being out of calibration.
Has anyone else run into anything like this?

Seasons in Bangladesh
Seasons in Bangladesh
Season is one of the divisions of a year according to weather. Its number and features vary from country to country. In the desert regions .
There is summer all the year round. But in Bangladesh. There are six seasons such as summer,
the rainy season, early autumn, late autumn, winter and spring.
These seasons come one after another in a regular cycle
. Each season has its own beauty and features. Each of them appears with it's own beauty, color, sights and sounds.
Summer is the first season of the year. It consists of the months of Baishakh and jaistha. During this period the days are longer than the nights.
The rainy season
is followed by the early autumn. It consists of Bhadra and Aswin. Sometimes patches of white clouds are seen floating and Aswin. Sometimes patches of white clouds are seen floating in the sky. It hardly raing. Again the heat becomes very trying. Plenty of fish is available in this season. Various acquatic flowers bloom and dance with small waves that pass merrily through the paddy plants.
Then comes the
late autumn
with dews. Dews drop on grass, leaves and petals look like pearls in the morning sun. It consists of Kartik and Agrahayan . It is the harvesting season . Farmers remain busy in cutting paddy. There previls a moderate weather in this season. It is neither hot now cold but one feels that winter is not far away. There comes the winter. It comes with its fog , mist and cold . It consists of poush and magh. During this season the days are shorter than the nights. The sky remains cloudless and looks blue. The weather becomes dry. Life in nature seems to be dull. But the sunshine is pleasant. Poor people suffe much from cold. The norther wind blows terribly. The old people and children are found sitting round fire to make them in rural areas. The price of essential things falls during this season and fish and vegetables overflood the market. Indeed it is the reason of pleasant weather, of cakes and puddings of festivals and marriages and of sports and games.
Last of all comes
the spring. It is the king of seasons
. It consists of Falgoon and chaitra. It comes with its eauty, glory, pomp and splendour. Nature looks bright and charming. Trees and plants put on new leaves and twigs. During this season countless varieties of flowers bloom and make the whole atmosphere delightful with their sweet fragrance. The birds are happy and pour out their melodious songs which thrill the heart of all. In fact, it in the season of flowers, sweet songs of birds and of pleasant weather.

Nadya Timofeeva has been living in Israel for 22 years, but when she wanted to enter her ballet school students in an international competition, the only place that mattered was back in the old country, her hometown of St. Petersburg, Russia.
Nearly every one of the 16 Jerusalem Ballet School students who traveled to St. Petersburg with Timofeeva for the Young Russian Grand Prix-2013 won prizes, including first place for a dance group in Classical and Modern Ballet Ensembles. The prestigious ballet event pitted the Israeli dancers, ages 7 through 20, against world-class performers from Russia, Korea, Japan, Israel, Latvia, and Uzbekistan.
"It was very emotional for me," said Timofeeva, who is the daughter of Nina Timofeeva, a former Bolshoi Ballet prima ballerina and native of St. Petersburg. "The level of the other competitors was very high and we worked hard for months preparing for this."
Classical ballet isn't well known in Israel, said Timofeeva, and dancers tend to start when they're around 12, moving to toe shoes and other elements of the demanding art later than in other countries.
"I'm going to have to start training my students earlier, so I can build a troupe," said Timofeeva. "It's true that the market for classical ballet isn't that big here, and it's not easy, but as usual, it's all about having enough money to build something bigger and more impressive here."
"I need an oligarch who will fund the whole thing for us," she joked.

Holy crap! Tons of FoFo's in florida (Pic heavy guys)
Ok, just got back from a vacation in Florida specifically Sanabel Island which is just west of Ft. Myers. Now I started to notice a very large amount of FoFos driving around, so I started counting and it was something like 1 in 8 cars on the island were focus. Oddly of the fofo's there all but 3 of them were 08+. Halfway through the week I started to take pictures of all the ones I saw and it became a game.
Now some of the pics are blurry and some fofo's are hidden in the pic since I was catching them on the fly. Keep in mind that I didn't start until half way through the week while I was down there and I missed a lot of cars since I didn't always have my camera with me or on.
Anyway onto the pics.
^two for one, same color model and year in same lot.
^SES model WITH the spoiler! I want that spoiler
^Red fofo
^Black fofo hidden behind the car in the foreground
^I see you over there!
^Trying to get away
^Amongst the trees
^V two of the older fofo's
^Not a FoFo but a very cool pic regardless.
Well there they all are, well what I caught anyway. I put it here since I wanted to show it to the texas crowd and since it's not modified foci or my focus I didn't want to put it in showroom. If it gets moved I just wanted to defend why it's here.

Low temperature synthesis and characterisation of lecontite, (NH4)Na(SO4).2H2O
Kloprogge, J. Theo, Broekmans, Maarten, Duong, Loc V., Martens, Wayde N., Hickey, Leisel, & Frost, Ray L. (2006) Low temperature synthesis and characterisation of lecontite, (NH4)Na(SO4).2H2O. Journal of Material Science, 41(11), pp. 3535-3539.
Lecontite, (NH4)Na(SO4).2H2O, was synthesised at room temperature in high purity compared to earlier work with a minor impurity of mascagnite, (NH4)2SO4. Rietveld refinement of the XRD results confirmed the crystal structure and unit cell dimensions as published earlier. Raman and Infrared spectroscopy, in conjunction with factor group analysis, resulted in a complex pattern of overlapping sulphate, NH and OH modes. The NH modes υ1 was observed around 2880 cm-1, υ2 around 1700 cm-1 overlapping with water OH-bending modes, υ3 around 3300 cm-1 overlapping with water OH-stretching modes around 3023, 3185 and 3422 cm-1, and υ4 around 1432, 1447 and 1462 cm-1. The sulphate group in the crystal structure displays a decrease in symmetry from Td as evidenced by the activation of the ν1 mode at 982 cm-1 and the ν2 mode around 452 cm-1 in the Infrared spectrum. The υ3 mode shows clear splitting in the infrared spectra with a strong band at 1064 cm-1 accompanied by two shoulders at 1107 and 1139 cm-1. The Raman spectra show three weak bands at 1068, 1109 and 1135 cm-1 with a shoulder at 1155 cm-1. Similar splitting was observed for the υ4 mode around 611 and 632 cm-1 in the Infrared and Raman spectra, respectively.

Police Dispatch Quality Award Has New Sponsor
The Installation Quality (IQ) Certification Program is now a sponsor of the Police Dispatch Quality (PDQ) award.
May 24, 2011
FRISCO, Texas — The Installation Quality (IQ) Certification Program is now a sponsor of the Police Dispatch Quality (PDQ) award. Other sponsors include the Security Industry Alarm Coalition (SIAC), False Alarm Reduction Association (FARA), SECURITY SALES & INTEGRATION and Honeywell Security.
"The IQ program and their members subscribe to practices that match our effort to reduce alarm dispatches," says SIAC Executive Director Stan Martin. "IQ's involvement with the PDQ award shows that quality installations go hand-in-hand with superior alarm management practices."
Launched in 2005, the PDQ Award honors a security company that promotes a complete effort to reduce false alarms. That includes employing enhanced call verification (ECV), training installers and customers, and working with law enforcement.
"We are proud to be connected with this award," says IQ Chair Tim Creenan. "A properly installed system, along with thorough user training, radically reduces false dispatches. We want to recognize companies that use these standards not only with the IQ Certification, but also through the PDQ program."
IQ's award sponsorship will commence for the 2011 PDQ award. This year's ceremony will take place at the 2011 ESX in Charlotte, N.C., on June 7. The winner will be awarded $1,000 along with being featured in an upcoming issue of SSI.

meant living near the beach
and a 4-runner driving by Queen's biggest fan
who likes to put his ipod on shuffle just to skip over most of the songs
life was becoming part of a family
and Ugly family, a rugby family, a Reber family
or even just the family we created betwee the four of us these past two weeks
Brittney, Jessie, Liz and Josh
it doesn't feel like we just visited
and the people i've met seem like old friends
and care like old friends
we drank Josh's friends into oblivion (or really just two...only one got sick and then subsequently ruined the kitchen carpet), we learned about the navy, i stormed out of the house, we cried, we laughed, brittney tanned, i burned, Josh and Liz stressed out about leaving, we cleaned kitchens, did the wash and folded all the clothes wrong
though we might have happened into Josh and Liz's lives
at a stressful time i wouldn't change it for anything
and i wouldn't have wanted to be anyone else's
personl secretary for two weeks
life really did mean all of us stumbling across the street
coming home from CP Shuckers!
those damn pineapple upside down cake shots
fresh in our tummies
or learning where to go for fried pickles
or where the best pizza is
and lets not forget drinking 'Y' beer
i cooked for my friends and learned how to go from one state
room to the next in the Whidbey Island
something was found in these past two weeks
that i will not be forgetting
for possibly the rest of my life
it's going to be hard to leave
maybe one day i will return

Committee Approves Bill to Reform Medical Liability System
WASHINGTON, DC - The House Energy and Commerce Committee today approved the Help Efficient, Accessible, Low Cost, Timely Health Care (HEALTH) Act, H.R. 5, by a vote of 30 to 20.
The HEALTH Act, authored by Rep. Phil Gingrey, M.D. (R-GA), addresses the high cost of health care by reforming the current medical liability system. The current broken system places a $210 billion burden on our nation's health system each year. In addition to the savings for patients and doctors, the Congressional Budget Office estimates comprehensive medical liability reforms, such as those included in H.R. 5, could reduce the federal deficit by $62 billion over ten years.
"After President Obama included medical liability reform in this year's State of the Union, the committee sent a letter to the president promising to work with him on this important issue," said Energy and Commerce Chairman Fred Upton (R-MI). "Three months later, we still have not heard back so the time to act is now. The medical liability system in this country is not a system at all. It is a fragmented patchwork of policies that jeopardize access to care and impose added costs to the American people and their government, through Medicare and Medicaid. It is time to enact real, comprehensive reform so we can finally have a medical liability system that works for our nation's patients and doctors."

Where I stayed
Ha Thu Hoa House Service
Heading out of Cam Thuy, I knew that I was really close to Cuc Phuong National Park, and I thought it might be really cool to go there for a day and maybe even spend the night. Ben from Phong Nha had said there was an entrance off of the Ho Chi Minh road, so it wouldn't be that out of the way at all. It also meant that I had to bypass the best highways that led to Mai Chau, but I figured it would be worth it.
Problem is, I had no clue where the entrance was supposed to be, so I just kept on going North. Along the way, I asked some people about Cuc Phuong, and they kept on pointing for me to continue, but it was coming to a point where I would be passing all the most direct routes to Mai Chau
This road was very different from the nice smooth HCM highway I had gotten used to. Very worn, full of potholes and exposed ground underneath the asphalt, and really bumpy. I had only a vague idea of how long it went for, but I figured it was worth it to keep going. From what I could tell from my map, it couldn't be too long along this stretch of highway, so I pushed on. Luckily I was right, and as I got closer to the junction with the bigger highway, the road improved considerably. After an awesome lunch in the town, it was only 30km or so to Mai Chau, and I was pumped. I had really been looking forward to riding around the North, because it's supposed to be really scenic. I was taking the first step to an awesome part of the country!
The North is quite mountainous, and this road was cutting right through and around some steep forested peaks, absolutely amazing
Coming into Mai Chau, I just wanted to find someplace to crash and quick - it had been a long day. Somebody came up to me with a card for a homestay, so I decided to just take it without looking around. I ended up following him into the middle of the valley Mai Chau is in, where there are many stilt houses set up for homestays. The location was beautiful, in the middle of rice paddies and surrounded on all sides by steep hills. I put my stuff away and decided to go for a walk. It didn't take long to realize that this whole area was a fabricated tourist destination for travellers to get an "authentic" Vietnamese homestay, but it was complete bullshit. Every "house" was selling the usual tourist wares, and the whole pace felt fake. Even the rice fields looked fake! All that was growing in them were weeds. Compared to the homestay I did in Kong Lo, Laos, it was completely phony. I just laughed about it because what could I do - I was already there.
Funnily enough three English guys turned up at the same place with motorbikes. They had bought them in Hanoi and this was their first day on the road! I was able to give them a few tips as they were heading down the stretch I'd just come up. Really nice guys. It got dark early and we were all exhausted, so we headed to bed after a home-cooked meal at the house.
I read for a bit before falling asleep, and then when I tried to, I couldn't brush bad thoughts out of my head about the road in front of me. What if the fog kept up like that the whole way? What if I crashed again? Or worse? And the problems with the bike? As much as I tried to brush the thoughts away, they wouldn't leave my head. I had one night to sleep on it before deciding in the morning. I was still within an easy day's drive to Hanoi.
Would I be backtracking into Hanoi, or pushing on?

This year I was privileged to share the wonders of safari with my mother. The trip was booked as a soft adventure and an introduction to the daily discovery and delights that a wildlife safari delivers. Mum has now been bitten by the safari bug and we plan to return in 2014. The highlights of Mum's first ever safari were:
- Birdlife in the Kruger Restcamps
- Two young male lions (hopefully) trailing a very large herd of buffalo near Satara
- 3 cheetah hunting kudu
- Eles and lion at N'semani in Kruger
- Wildflowers at West Coast NP
- Lunch with Dikdik in Cape Town
- Coastal scenery on the flight from Cape Town to Walvis Bay
- Living Desert Tour (ex Swakopmund)
- Elephant gathering at Rietfontein, Etosha
- Meerkats at Bagatelle
- Cheetah with 3 x 4 month old cubs, Phinda
- Forest Camp, Moholoholo Rehab Centre (1 night)
- Kruger 7 nights (2 Satara, 3 Olifants, 1 Pretoriuskop and 1 Berg-en-dahl)
- Hluhluwe-Umfolozi NP (Hilltop Camp 2 nights)
- St Lucia (Lalapanzi B&B 3 nights)
- Cape Town (Blackheath Lodge 4 nights)
- Swakopmund (Hotel Schweizerhaus 3 nights)
- Etosha (Dolomite Camp 1 night, Okaukuejo 2 nights, Namutoni 1 night)
- Bagatelle Game Lodge (3 nights)
- Phinda (Forest Lodge 4 nights)
Finally the 4 August has dawned and safari 2012 is here at last - the VIPs (very important pets) have been temporarily re-homed and Mum and I set out for 5 weeks in Africa. My brother and sister-in-law drove us to the newly renovated Devonport (Tasmania) airport and a quick 70 minute flight gets us to Melbourne for an hour stopover before boarding the plane for Perth. We overnighted at the unremarkable Bel Eyre Comfort Inn, where the redeeming feature was the free, convenient airport shuttle. The flight to Johannesburg from Perth was the longest I have ever experienced on this route - exactly 12 hours due to strong headwinds. I was lucky to snag the last row of 4 seats before the plane took off so we could take turns to stretch out for a snooze.
The first night in Johannesburg was at the Airport City Lodge in comfy rooms with dinner at the airport Mugg and Bean. Breakfast next morning was up to the usual City Lodge standard (my first blood oranges of the trip) after which we met our guide Shelagh Webber and set out for the first night at Moholoholo Rehab Centre. Shelagh hired a 9 seater Hyundai for the first 13 days of the trip - plenty of room for us, the luggage, food supplies and Shelagh's kitchen equipment. The dusty drive east was due to the strong winds that were battering parts of South Africa and the heavy traffic partly the result of coal trucks. We stopped at Milly's Star Stop for lunch before heading further east. We drove over Abel Erasmus pass, part of an early voortrekker route before arriving in a citrus fruit growing area with curio and citrus sellers at the roadside.
Forest Lodge, Moholoholo Rehab Centre
Wildlife started at the gate - 'kneeling' warthogs, nyala and giraffe. This continued during the late afternoon game drive where Mum saw her first African sunset, roosting vultures, more nyala, impala, a lone wildebeest and 4 giraffe.
When the 6 lions at the rehab centre roared and the sound rolled across the Drakensbergs and I knew I was back in Africa. During the drive we smelled the potato bush that is just like boiling potatoes and is usually evident in the late afternoon and early evening. The common wild pear tree is a sweet smelling tree which (reportedly) is used for making love potions. The guide told us about the solo rhino at Moholoholo that seeks the company of the grazing hippos at night, and later we saw this unlikely trio close to the lodge. The staff served a delicious dinner of butternut and stilton soup, pepper steak (Mum had hake and prawn sauce) and chocolate fudge pudding.
Following a good sleep Mum and I were both up early to see the sunrise across the Drakensbergs. Nyala graze at the front of the chalet and 2 young lambs spent the night in the shelter of the front steps. Breakfast was a delicious parfait of fresh fruit, yoghurt and muesli followed by bacon and eggs.
The tour of the rehab centre was very informative and I have photos of Mum patting the cheetah and even putting on the leather gauntlet to feed the vultures (never thought this would happen!). Other animals that we saw were lion, leopard, hyena, honey badger, a 3 y.o. black rhino and a free ranging 4 month old white rhino that was being raised at the centre before being returned to her owner's farm.
Kruger NP
We entered Kruger through Phalaborwa gate and soon saw several eles and impala. This began Mum's deep interest in elephants that grew throughout the trip. We were lucky with a distant, yet clear sighting of a leopard in a tree - the late afternoon sun caught her spots beautifully. Next we saw a large herd of buffalo being optimistically tailed by 2 two year old male lions that looked longingly at this big prey but didn't push their luck. At Nsemani a pride of lions lazed with bloated stomachs - 2 males with lionesses further back in the tree line.
Up at 6.10 the next morning and prowling around the campsite looking for birds - hoopoe,
green wood hoopoe, a Bennett's woodpecker and a gray lourie are around the rondavels. Less welcome are the vervet monkeys, one of which stole my breakfast strawberries. After breakfast we drove the S100 where a small pride of lions is lazing. Morning tea is at the delightful Timbavati Picnic Site and lunch at N'watetsi Picnic Site. Mum and I did a Sanparks night drive during which we saw hippo, 3 lionesses, a distant porcupine, 2 genets, a disappearing civet and a chameleon.
Up early next morning I was entertained by a pair of crested barbets, yellow billed hornbills and flocks of glossy starlings. Later we drove north to Olifants, via Nsemani where a lioness was walking slowly along the road. Along the way we saw zebra and eles at Ngotsi waterhole and a very large herd of buffalo, probably the same being trailed by the young lions - sadly there were no tawny shapes padding along behind the slow moving line. Stopped to admire a pearl spotted owl just before the Olifants River where we saw open-billed storks
hadeda ibis, egrets, a pair of spoonbills, Egyptian geese and bathing glossy starlings. The river is scenic with lots of rocky outcrops and pools. Lunch is at the Olifants restaurant where I had bunny chow - yummy chicken curry served in a scooped out quarter loaf of bread. A knobbly fig tree shades the restaurant deck and red-winged starlings, gray louries
and a black-headed oriole feast on the fruit above our heads. A short game drive revealed elephants at the Olifants and a wide drag mark made by a crocodile on its way down to the river. Bushbuck and kudu, together with the elephants from the river crossed the road in front of us on the way back to camp. My rondavel has river views and I can hear the hippos honking and smell braais cooking as the sun sets.
Up at 6.45 looking for birds - a gray headed bush shrike lives somewhere near the laundry and the brown-headed parrots are breakfasting on aloes. Other breakfast birds are crested barbets, yellow and red-billed hornbills, a single gray hornbill, red-winged and glossy starlings. A tree squirrel entertains Mum but evades the camera. The first new animal of the day is a klipspringer on the rocky skyline. We had morning tea at Letaba and spent some time in the Elephant Centre where there is an elephant skeleton, lots of ele-related information and photos and the tusks of 7 Kruger 'big tuskers' with a few biographical details of these giants. Mum thought this was a great place and it was hard to get her away!
Bushbuck roam around Letaba and I saw a cinnamon breasted bunting at the plant nursery. Heading north bull elephants are drinking from reservoirs where the short (and smart) animals stand on a small step to gain a height advantage. Further on we saw eles enjoying a dust bath
and surprisingly, a lone roan antelope. Ate lunch at Mopani where open-billed storks, egrets, Egyptian geese and crocs could be seen from the deck. Returning to Oliphants we saw 11 bull elephants at the reservoir and closer to camp a lappet-faced vulture. There is a white-backed vulture nest along the road near the restcamp where we watched an adult feeding the demanding chick. Another beautiful Kruger evening and the hippos are honking in the river below as I write up my notes. Next morning I found a dark-capped bulbul,
a black headed oriole
and a white bellied sunbird all feasting on aloes near the gate. We drove south to Satara and giraffe, 2 of which were fighting, smashing necks in a fight for dominance. Further on we have sightings of a distant rhino, a peaceful breeding herd of eles and lion. We enjoyed a skottlebraai lunch (eggs, bacon and tomato) at N'watesi Picnic Site where a Spotted bush snake dropped out of a tree, eventually slithering into another near the shade area
This was a zebra day as we saw 2 large dazzles with over 100 animals each as well as other smaller herds.
I realised the next day was Sunday when I heard the staff singing at the restcamp church whilst at the restaurant black collared barbets hop around in the top of the knobbly fig tree
Later we departed for Pretoriuskop, passing a kori bustard which appeared to have been hit by a car (the number of speeding cars in Kruger was very worrying)
and in a nearby tree a martial eagle waited to feast on the carcass. Further on we saw 2 waterbuck males squaring off, and later a cheetah. This sighting eventually turned out to be 3 cheetah hunting kudu and we enjoyed distant sightings of all 3. We had scarcely stopped talking about this than we came upon a large gathering of cars watching a leopard eating a porcupine - he was well hidden behind a bush but we saw his spotted head and neck as he tucked into the luckless porcupine. We had planned to have lunch at Tshokwane Picnic Site, however when a vervet grabbed Mum's banana before we had even put the picnic basket down we decided on boerwors rolls and peppermint crisp ice cream from the kiosk. Later we saw eles and lion at N'semani, rhino closer to Skukuza and buffalo - so the Big 5 in one day! As we settle into Pretoriuskop at dusk someone at the staff camp is whistling a song reminiscent of Love me tender as night falls.
Pretoriuskop is my favourite camp as the grounds are spacious and home to a small herd of quiet impala and a wide variety of birds. Next morning I eventually photographed a scarlet chested sunbird.
Leaving camp we saw a tree full of green pigeons and later some gray hornbills. A Sanparks vehicle and armed guard accompanied women cutting thatch to be used in the maintenance of park buildings. Along the road we saw 3 rhinos and at Transport dam impala, swallows, a magpie shrike and a sentinel fish eagle sitting high above the water. We stopped at Lake Panic where a pair of mating hippos had drifted close to the hide. We also saw 4 grey herons on 2 nests, crocodile, bushbuck, our first Goliath heron, African darter, malachite and pied kingfishers and jacana. On the road once more we saw a lone lioness and 4 giraffe. Stopped for lunch at Nkhuli Picnic Site where we again ordered boerwors rolls much to the delight of the resident baboons who paid close attention to our food. Closer to Berg-en-dahl we saw a lone (and very fat) lioness at a wildebeest kill and later a rhino and calf.
Next morning I tried unsuccessfully to photograph scarlet chested sunbirds and purple turacos. Breakfast birds included a black-headed oriole, bulbuls, gray louries that were joined by the pesky vervet monkeys.
Hluhluwe-Umfolozi is next...

Interested students checked out the programs offered by the college and then took a tour of the school.EMCC president, Lawrence Barrett, said it's a good opportunity for both students and staff. "It's really about a win-win for both the institution and the student to see if they interact well here and it's a really good fit," Barrett explained.He told us about 90% of the students who attend their open house end up enrolling at the school.

Stretching carpet
I had to take up the carpet from the tack strips in a 12' x 14' room in order to roll back for termite treatment in a finished breezeway. Now I need to restretch and reattach the carpet. From searching various sites and this forum, it seems that a kicker is only used to attach the carpet in one corner for a starting point. After that a stretcher is used. I have been unable to find any details on methods, techniques and pattern to follow. Please reply only if you have experience doing this.
http://www.carpet-rug.org/pdf_word_docs/105.pdf There is a diagram in this that will show you step by step how to stretch it.
Stretching Carpet
Thank you, Rusty. This is exactly what I am seeking. I had hoped to do the job today but had been advised by several others to just get a kicker. The rental shop also had a stretcher but the clerk did not know anything about laying carpet and thought that it was only used for large rooms. So it will be next weekend before I get back to this. Stay tuned for the results.

Rented a stretcher and kicker for $45 and used the pattern in the directions that Rusty sent. The hardest part was correctly assembling the stretcher: instructions were very basic and it took me a few attempts to get it right. After that, it was quick and easy.
None of the information I have seen mentioned stapling it down after hooking to the tack strips but I found that mine was when I took it up. I did not have that type staple so I substituted carpet tacks.
Glad it worked out for you. Surprised it was srapled. It really shouldn't be.

A friend of mine has a tdi and the battery died recently, we tried jumping it today and could only get it to run for less than a second and then it would shut off. I searched the tdi forum and found this:
This guy had the exact same problem and he replaced the battery. His car would only run for less than a second. Someone advised him to disconnect the battery cables from the battery, wait a couple minutes, then touch them together. For whatever reason, he said it worked.
Has anyone ever heard of this? It seems like it might cause some damage but then again, the battery isn't connected to the car when you touch the cables together.
Why would this work? I'm hesitant to try it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

The Life and Times
Art, its been said, is a mirror for life and if thats the case, then Bovine Metropolis is taking that credo a little further than usual. In Biography: Life as Comedy, the improv troupe takes interviews with everyday people and turns them into fodder for sketches, riffing, poetry what the hell, even interpretive dance.
When you work with the same people doing the same games and sketches, says director Eric Farone, you start to see the same stuff over and over. This breathes a little life into that; it adds an unpredictable element that makes it new. Farone interviews the guests, who select a performer to represent them, and then that performer and others come up with sketches based on the answers to the questions. Tonights guest is Anthea Johnson. Who is she? I have no idea who she is, Farone says. We dont really want to know too much about the guests, because then we come in with preconceived notions.
Its improv, after all. The show premieres tonight at 8 p.m. at Bovine Metropolis Theater, 1527 Champa Street, and continues on Fridays and Saturdays through November 13; tickets are $16. For more information, go to www.bovinemetropolis.com or call 303-758-4722.
Fridays, Saturdays, 8 p.m. Starts: Sept. 17. Continues through Nov. 13, 2010

Sometimes, there's nothing sadder than a rapper with too much time on his hands. The rapper Nelly was detained last night in Texas while police went onto his tour bus and found both heroin and a loaded gun. They also found a great deal of the stuff that every rapper wants to smoke.
TMZ reports that the bus was stopped at the border patrol checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, which is where officers and a police dog determined that there were drugs on the bus. Police say that they found 36 baggies of Heroin, and a good ten pounds of marijuana to go with it. They also found a loaded .45 caliber pistol.
All seven people riding the bus were detained, including Nelly himself. Another man claimed that the drugs and gun belonged to him, but we're not sure if this lets Nelly off the hook.
Nelly, whose real name is Cornell Iral Haynes, hit the peak of his career with his album "Country Grammar," which sold 8.4 million copies. He hasn't seen much success as of late, so it's hard to even know why he was on a tour bus. He announced his latest album on Twitter on July 4th, but the album wasn't nearly as highly celebrated as his prior releases.

Revco: It's Great To Be Alive, Sort Of
For 19 years, the Revco-Cleveland Marathon has been a springtime civic celebration. But participants wondered if this year's race, scheduled for May 5, might be the last--the victim of the local drugstore chain's merger with rival Rite Aid Corp.
It was a close one. Thanks largely to the Federal Trade Commission, the marathon--and Revco D.S. Inc.--will remain in business. On Apr. 24, Rite Aid withdrew its offer, bowing to FTC complaints that the new drugstore chain would control too much of the market in nine states. The unexpected decision may have been good news to 10,000 marathon runners, but it has complicated the economic future of a company that had planned to vanish from the corporate scene. Executives had been scouting for new positions. Expansion plans were shelved. And modernization of acquired stores ground to a halt. "They thought they were dead, and have been laying on a slab for five months," says Mark A. Husson, an analyst at J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. "They have to get off a slab and start moving again."
Can a company come back from such a near-death experience--particularly after emerging from a searing bankruptcy reorganization just four years ago? The short-run prognosis appears good: In an upbeat Apr. 29 conference call with Wall Street analysts, President and Chief Executive D. Dwayne Hoven assured Wall Street that earnings would meet analysts' estimates for the fiscal year ending in June--and exceed them next year. Philip J. Muldoon, an analyst at McDonald & Co. Securities Inc., figures Revco will earn $83 million on $5.2 billion in sales this fiscal year. In fact, because it had suspended efforts to find and build new stores and invest in its systems, expenses are a bit lower, and sales have remained strong.
A Revco spokesman says it is wrong to "think we've just been counting ceiling tiles the last few months." But the company is just restarting its real estate development efforts. It also has fallen behind rivals in developing its own department to manage pharmacy benefits, which would compete with the big managers that have come to dominate the prescription-drug business.
Revco's long-term strategic challenge is to grow fast enough--and be efficient enough--so that it can offset the pressure being put on drug prices by these huge purchasers. Managed-care companies are quickly increasing their share of prescription-drug sales (chart), and Revco is winning plenty of their business. But with managed-care companies now paying for the bulk of Revco's scripts, gross margins are being squeezed, falling from 29.6% to 29.3% in the past year.
SWEETENER. Revco's long-term fate may depend on its ability to retain managers who had expected to leave the company once Rite Aid took charge. "Everybody was out looking for jobs," notes Muldoon. Even Hoven, who says he now will stay with Revco, had already sold his house and planned a move to Florida. Top managers had reason to wait around for the conclusion of the sale before leaving the company: severance packages and options that ran into the millions of dollars. That's why only about 120 of the 1,100 lower-level headquarters employees had left before the FTC intervened.
Since the deal's collapse, Chief Financial Officer James J. Hagan is the only top manager who has announced his departure--and he had promised to go elsewhere months ago. "You'll see defections here and there," says Hagan, who emphasizes that "there is no mass exodus here."
To make sure, Revco is planning an incentive sweetener for executives. Hoven expects most of Revco's management to remain intact. The day after Rite Aid abandoned its bid, owners Sam Zell and Talton R. Embry declared that "our board is not seeking another buyer for Revco." Indeed, says Chief Operating Officer Carl A. Bellini, Revco hopes to become a buyer itself as consolidations continue. Now back from the brink, Revco is warming up again for a new marathon.

My money pit 88 Camaro
Well hello fellow car nuts I have an 88 Camaro wich had a v6 I switched the V6 for a 3:55 but it seemes slow to me,does that mean I need to change the rearend I have a 3:73 in the garage but can I just swap gears and not the whole rear I have never done it before.
"slow" could be soo many different things. To address your question you can swap gears depending on the current rear axle set up you have. If the other 3.73 gears are set up in another axle it would probably be easier to just swap the axle as it wouldnt be much more than a take out and replace process. Do you know what gears are in the car now? Does slow mean your getting rpms but the rest of the car isnt responding to it. Are you getting any roughness in the engine, meaning rough idle, rough start, fluctuations, bad pedal response? More details gbet better responses. We're all glad to help. :thumbup:
I think the v6 cars usually had a pretty steep rear gear, do you know what the current gears are? Is this a 700R or a manual?
I tend to think gearing isn't your issue, either trans will give you a good multiplier. What are the specs on this 355? Are you sure you're running enough timing?
How is the state of tune? Timing, fuel curve, etc.
Well guys i am starting to think it is the tranny because when the machine shop gave it back to me they had the kickdown cable adjusted way way off and by the time I realized the problem it might of been too late the car runs very very strong it was built for the track but its lacking and the reason for me saying my gears is that this so called machine shop somewhere In Kentland Indiana swares on his life that its because my rearend is wrong.I think I got ripped off big time and just need an inexpensive fix i'm currently into the motor and trans 5,500 should I just dump a 350 in it and throw my worked 700r4 through Mr. Youngs Window HELP
RPO Sticker
If the rear end is original, it should be 3.42:1 (RPO "GU6". If it's a posi you should see "G80").
The ratio and other info can be found on the RPO sticker, provided the gear ratio wasn't changed. The RPO code sticker is usually located in the center console on the passenger side wall. Sometimes it's under the hatch.
A list of what the codes mean is HERE.

Today I planned to video blog about the contents of my knitting bag. Fun needles and yarn, and some unexpected surprises. However, a good friend linked a video from Welcome Home Blog on Facebook and it moved me. I cried, my heart melted, and I couldn't stop smiling. This could be because of the situation I'm in (which after seeing other videos on the site, make me feel far less alone, and not remotely unique) but I challenge you to watch one and not be moved.
My children watched this. They understood, they knew that the Daddy and the video had been away just like theirs is. They got it, and they were happy for the children on the computer.
This blog has moved me, and I wanted to share with you.

Folf Course
The Montana State University-Northern campus is the home of a 18-hole Disc Golf (Folf) Course and students may check out folf discs and scorecards with maps at the Student Union Information Desk with a current MSU-Northern ID.
Folf Disc's may also be purchased at the MSU-Northern Bookstore or on their website.
14th Annual Tucker Montgomery Folf Tournament: April 20, 2015
The 14th Annual Tucker Montgomery Folf Tournament will be held on April 20 at 5pm on the campus of MSU-Northern. The tournament includes singles, doubles and team divisions. Registration forms are due at the SUB Information Desk by April 19th at 5pm. T-shirts will be available for all participants. Prizes will be awarded to the winners of each division and a free BBQ will follow on the SUB East Lawn
FYI about Tucker Montgomery
Tucker Montgomery was a former MSU-Northern student from 1999-2001. During his time at Northern, Tucker belonged to the Alternative Outdoor Sports club that was instrumental in the planning and implementation of the MSU-Northern Folf Course. "This project started off as a hope of a few students sitting around dreaming of what could make the campus a better place to be; after jumping through a lot of bureaucratic hoops and political boundaries, we got it to happen" stated AOS President, Ryan Gerhauser. (Northern Light-April 12, 2000) Tucker was one of the welders for the disc golf baskets on the then 9-hole course.
The other students who belonged to the Alternative Outdoor Sports Club were Trygve "Spike" Magelssen, Toby Stack, Mik Gratzer, Ryan Gerhauser, Shalon Denson, Lindsay Atwell, Rhonda Tadej, Jason Petkovich and Sam Horpestad. Professor Virgil Hawkinson helped with the design and building of the baskets. Philip Sunberg, Scott Bryson and Professor Darryl Thackeray painted the baskets. A lot of preparation went into this project from its inception. The layout took many games and walk-throughs to successfully design the course; which was fun work, playing while laying out the course. The first annual AOS Disc Golf (Folf) tournament was held on April 15, 2000.
Tucker Montgomery was killed in an automobile accident in 2001. The members of the AOS Club and the MSU-Northern Intramurals & Recreation Committee have continued this tournament since 2002 to honor Tucker for his dedication, support, kindness and generosity.
Disc Golf Rules & Regulations
This is an abbreviated list of disc golf rules. For a complete, and rather lengthy list of all disc golf rules, please visit the Pro Disc Golf Association website.
- Disc Golf is played like ball golf using a flying disc. One stroke is counted for
each throw or penalty.
- Tee throws must be completed within the designated tee areas. Stepping outside of
the designated tee area once the disc is released (on a follow through) is acceptable.
- After teeing off, the player whose disc is farthest from the hole always throws first.
The player with the least number of throws on the previous hole tees off first on
the next hole.
- Fairway throws must be made with the foot closest to the hole on the front edge of
the previous throw's line.
- A run-up and normal follow through, after release, is allowed for throws more that
30 feet from the hole. Inside 30 feet, the player cannot step past the point of his
line until the disc has landed.
- A disc that comes to rest inside the disc hole basket or chains, constitutes successful
completion of the hole. A disc that comes to rest on top of the basket does not constitute
a successful putt.
- Any disc that comes to rest more that six feet above the ground is considered unplayable.
The disc must be thrown from the ground directly below the disc, and a one-point penalty
is incurred.
- A throw that lands out of bounds must be played from the point where the disc went
out of bounds, and a one-point penalty is incurred. Normal out-of-bounds hazards
include water, roads, pavilions, walkways, etc.
- Never throw until the fairway ahead is clear of players and park guests.

- Publisher's Summary
- This volume marks the 25th anniversary of Karin Barber's ground-breaking article, "Popular Arts in Africa", which stimulated new debates about African popular culture and its defining categories. Focusing on performances, audiences, social contexts and texts, contributors ask how African popular cultures contribute to the formation of an episteme. With chapters on theater, Nollywood films, blogging, and music and sports discourses, as well as on popular art forms, urban and youth cultures, and gender and sexuality, the book highlights the dynamism and complexity of contemporary popular cultures in sub-Saharan Africa. Focusing on the streets of Africa, especially city streets where different cultures and cultural personalities meet, the book asks how the category of "the people" is identified and interpreted by African culture-producers, politicians, religious leaders, and by "the people" themselves. The book offers a nuanced, strongly historicized perspective in which African popular cultures are regarded as vehicles through which we can document ordinary people's vitality and responsiveness to political and social transformations.

Pune-based Jesuit cleric-cum-academic Cyril Desbruslais believes in popular theatre as a medium of public instruction. For the past 39 years, he has been scripting and producing stage plays to promote the integrated development of young people and sensitise them to the needs of the marginalised and poor through his NGO Searching and Service in Unity (SSU, estb. 1971). His latest offering Adam and Eve chronicles the journey of the first humans on earth, the temptation of Eve and its consequences.
Adam and Eve is more than a morality play. Desbruslais has placed this biblical narrative in a modern context, highlighting important messages such as respect for the environment, gender egalitarianism, and belief in God. Enacted by young people, the play is also the group's contribution to charity with two-thirds of its proceeds donated to a Pune-based NGO. Desbruslais says that theatre is a powerful medium for transmission of positive morality, ethics and social messages. This was particularly true in the pre-television era when he wrote his first play The Impossible Dream in 1971.
"Entertainment options for youth were limited before television, pubs and the internet, which was why many youngsters experimented with drugs and alcohol. In those days, career choices were also limited and the best jobs went to engineers, doctors and management graduates or were reserved for those who passed the civil services examination. Therefore there was a strong undercurrent of frustration and anger that put middle class youth on the path of rebellion or complete isolation. I resolved to canalise the latent creativity that many of these youngsters possessed by getting them involved in theatre and associate options such as stage sets, decor, costumes, acting, music, production, writing etc," says Desbruslais who resides in Pune's De Nobili College campus which houses a large community of Jesuit clergy, and teaches philosophy at the in-house Jnana Deepa Vidyapeeth seminary, which offers philosophy and theology degrees and certification to lay people as well as priests, nuns and members of other religious orders.
According to Desbruslais, SSU is an NGO with a difference. "We work towards unity in diversity, which means that membership is not restricted to Christians, and offer pastoral care to the less fortunate," he says.
With more than 25 stage plays on themes as diverse as nuclear disarmament, globalisation, terrorism, capitalism and consumerism and religious dogma to his credit, Desbruslais believes that even in this contemporary age of 24x7 internet, theatre is a force for enlightening and changing mindsets, attitudes and prejudices. "Through the messages embedded in our plays, SSU is promoting out-of-the-box thinking among the young and is abating — if not removing — hatred that's making us all such violent beings," he says.
Play on!
