You can certainly sub the butternut squash for pumpkin in these. Or try my pumpkin scones- they're yum as well. But no nuts.

How did we end up in the same spot? Some days my TBI brain and I do fine. Two weeks ago I embarrassed myself in a small way in front of a group of friends and haven't been out of the house since. The hermit life, comforted by Karina delicious food and my two dogs is less hard.

Hiding for a while.Loishttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-19281824.post-73599976592328318932011-11-06T08:07:51.295-08:002011-11-06T08:07:51.295-08:00I feel for you. Really, I do. And just want you to...I feel for you. Really, I do. And just want you to know that those feelings are just as valuable as any others you may feel, worthy of the space they need to run their course. Just as you are worthy of the space that you occupy and then some.
I've realized recently that we're not here to be "happy", we're here to learn how not to suffer, to be content, to understand that feeling sadness, anger, upset, guilt, or fear are all a part of this human experience we call life and the only thing that makes them bad is our judgment of them.
So let it all move through you like a river, finding it's own way, bending, moving, flowing, but always allowing.
With love and kindness and lots of hugs.Bettinahttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-19281824.post-30476618749385022522011-11-06T06:45:50.103-08:002011-11-06T06:45:50.103-08:00Morning Karina... Yeah, been there, in there, what...Morning Karina...
Yeah, been there, in there, what I do...
drop the words, stay w/the experience, stop trying to fit a real life into a nice idea, return to what's right at my fingertips, let it be just weather which will pass, just as the feeling of confidence & safety does.

Good days, bad days... all weather. Some of it I like, some of it I don't like, none of it really has much to do w/me--which can be a little hard to believe when you're cold, wet & shivering--but really, what if these feelings really aren't about me? What if it really is just impersonal biochemistry?

I don't know, works for me... and so do these scones! Looking forward to giving them a try.

I was at a meeting last night and the speaker said, "Today is not the only day." It is a sentence of hope and encouragement when we find ourselves in the hard places. In nature there is winter, but spring always comes. The snow melts; the flowers bloom; the sun shines. It is that way in life too. Today is not the only day.

Thank you for being real. Thank you for sharing from the wellspring within you. Take time to drink in, to soak, to replenish.

I hope that you know, no matter what is going on in your life and your world, you are loved, cherished, respected and appreciated by more people than you could probably imagine!

Please try to remember that we are primary caretakers for ourselves, as well as our loved ones- the care and feeding of our own souls is what fills our cups up so that we can be caretakers to others. If we allow our cups to run dry, then we become unable to 'do' for those we love. And sometimes allowing others to do for themselves while we take care of our own needs is the best gift we can give them (it's not easy, but it is sometimes necessary).

Your inner light burns so brightly for all of us to see. I hope that you can see and feel its warmth as well as we do, and soon! You are a wonderful & amazing person, and I, for one, feel blessed to have found your blog, and have been so inspired by you!

Thank you for having the courage to pursue your artistry and creativity, and for being honest and authentic- you serve as a shining example of what is possible.Melanie ZZGhttp://email@example.com

German Shepherd Dog Forums (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/)
- General Puppy Stuff (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/general-puppy-stuff/)
- - 8 weeks to 12 weeks with littermates? (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/general-puppy-stuff/467217-8-weeks-12-weeks-littermates.html)
8 weeks to 12 weeks with littermates?
Just curious -- are there advantages to having a puppy stay with his littermates and mother from 8 weeks to 12 weeks?
I'm not talking about training (housebreaking, obedience, etc.) that the breeder would engage in, in any.
I'm just looking at it from a pure dog to dog learning perspective. For example, would they learn better bite inhibition, be more social & less insecure, etc?
I think after 8 weeks, pups will start getting pretty rough and need some really strict management when they are together. The pups that are dominant will possibly give the ones that are not as outgoing less confidence....and there may be some ganging up too. Or resource guarding if they are fed together.
Not sure if mom would be into managing or dealing with all those teeth coming at her from every which way!
Imprinting stage is huge during that time, I'd rather see the pups worked with individually, I don't think there is much of a benefit in leaving pups together longer than 8 or 9 weeks.
Due to the rescues rules I couldn't get my boy until 12 weeks. It's been tough. He was very fearful. We are slowly working through it. I do not know how much of his behavior is genetic and how much was influenced by that 8-12 week period. If I had to do it again, I would ask for an exception to the rule.
No, the litter mates in "MY OPINION" are not going to make much difference in aggression, soft bites, hunt & prey drive, ect.
Get the dog @ 6 - 8 weeks and let the puppy learn from you ! I walked my dog at that age outside, some will not, did it help, well, no I doubt it did...
When I got a 16 week dog in Dec. 1987 the dog was shovel shy, bad situation was non-correctable.
A biting dog is a huge liability - unless your judgement proof and you don't mind the dog being quarantined or worse, pts.. Use caution ! :cry:
Many states (U.S.) require pup to be 8 weeks old to sell. I would never buy a pup less than that age even without the regulations. I would prefer a pup between 8 to 10 weeks of age -- closer to 8+ if I was picking up and closer to 10 if possible if being shipped.

Boy did I dodge a bullet!!!! When I called these guys up it was a strong arm sale from the very beginning. I guy named Lexington Steel or something gave me the run down. What I owe, how much I make, my assets etc. Next was his question was " Would you like to write a check by phone or use a credit card? That will be $7,500".
Under what circumstance would somebody hand over that amount of hard earned money after a 10 minute conversation. Well not me. I kinda laughed, and asked if that is normal protocol. He exclaimed that because they are such a big company and spend a million dollars in advertising every month, I should have a blind faith in them.
Needless to say I did not hand over the money.
About a month later, after networking with a few friends. I was pointed to the website www.settlewiththeirs.info and spoke to a gentlemen named Owen 877-517-0067 . My experience with them has been as smooth as one could expect from a professional company. For starters they offered me a Free Tax Investigation. This only made sense to me because if I don't have a clue what my situation is with the IRS, then how could I expect this company to know what they could do for me and require an upfront exorbitant amount of money to find out where I stand? In the end I saved a lot of time and money

Racist Rant Girls "No Longer Students at GHS"
If they haven't seen it already, an emergency faculty meeting this morning at Gainesville High School has made all teachers aware of a controversial YouTube video made by two of their students.
Eight Gainesville police officers were brought to the GHS campus on Thursday, as concerns were raised over student safety after the 14-minute YouTube video went viral the day before.
The video shows two GHS girls ranting about African Americans
GHS Principal David Shelnutt says the video was first brought to his attention on Wednesday during lunch time.
Shelnutt wouldn't comment on disciplinary actions taken, but says the two girls are leaving Gainesville High, and are no longer students there.
"There's no place for comments like that- that video here at GHS, there's no place for that in the Alachua County Public School System, and my opinion, no place for that in society in general," he said.
According to reports not confirmed by the school, the girls withdrew from GHS and are now being home schooled.

Lynette Ribaudo's 22-year old daughter graduated from Virginia Tech in December but she still lives just minutes from the Blacksburg, Virginia campus.
Ribaudo's daughter, Allison, was working at a local mall when the shootings took place.
Like many students Allison is still trying to make sense of what happened.
Ribaudo says Allison did know a couple of the people involved in Monday's shooting.
One of her friends was shot and another was injured while jumping out of a classroom. Both should be okay.
Ribaudo says it's hard to comfort her daughter during this time, adding all she can do is talk to her and try to reassure her that not everyone is bad.

July 2013
Yesterday's thinking got you here. Where will you be tomorrow?
Just think if for just one hour you could choose to have the right attitude, the perfect attitude, the kind of proper attitude that brings out the best in you and the people around you. That would be a great hour!
If you practiced living out that attitude every single day for a week, you'd get better at it. The next week you might go for two consecutive hours.
What if you could do it for an entire day? Now you're getting good. What if your continuing practice allowed you to string those days together? Could you imagine the kind of compounding results you'd see in your family life, work life, and spiritual life?
You can start this attitude integration this very hour. Today matters!
Here are a few ground reminders to help you navigate the road ahead:
1. Your wealth does not determine your attitude.
I know millionaires with bad attitudes. They are miserable people. They choose to spread their pessimism and dislike to all who come under their dark cloud. Thank God for umbrellas. I also know poverty stricken individuals who have outstanding attitudes. Their lack of wealth does not deter their joy; they bring happiness and a life purpose to many (think of Mother Theresa before she died).
2. Your level of education does not determine your attitude.
Hang out with graduate students: you'll see what I mean.
3. Your IQ does not determine your attitude.
You can't do much about your intellectual quotient, but you alone can control your thinking, emotions, and perspectives.
4. Your giftedness or talent level does not determine your attitude.
Gifted perfectionists aren't happy until everything is perfect. "The winner's edge is not in a gifted birth, a high IQ, or in talent. The winner's edge is all in the attitude, not aptitude." Denis Waitley in The Winner's Edge
I'm becoming famous for giving you two small areas to think about or work on, and this month is no exception. THESE ARE YOUR CHOICES! They are not natural and they won't happen without your effort. Here they are:
Choose to be thankful. There is outstanding academic research that proves that thankfulness and happiness are inextricably related. I first began following this research many years ago after hearing Chuck Colson talk about it. The research continues and the results are undeniable.
Choose to value others. Yes, even the mean people. People matter to God, and they should matter to you. Choose to like people and choose to believe the best.
Here's a story that illustrates this principle. Two young, undisciplined kids were a nuisance to people on a cross-country flight. The apparently disinterested and preoccupied father was doing nothing. Finally an older lady had had enough. "Sir, will you please do something with your children and ask them to be quiet?" The sheepish man replied, "Pardon. Oh, I'm sorry. Their mom just died. We're returning from the funeral." All who heard the comment were touched. The passengers rallied around the young family, entertaining the kids and consoling the dad. When I heard the story it was a reminder to me that I never know where a person has been.
The catalyst for these lessons can be found in the book Today Matters. An even better book that we are reviewing weekly with our staff is The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth.
Today matters. You matter. You're contribution matters. Your attitude matters. Make it great.

Medicaid directors want in on integrity efforts
Federal efforts to stop fraud and waste in Medicaid could be more successful if they involved the state programs, according to the National Association of Medicaid Directors.
NAMD sent the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services a letter on Oct. 5, requesting "a new effort to work together" and saying ongoing flaws in collaboration and communication "have been undermining the success of program integrity efforts."
"The most recent example of this was the announcement that the Departments of Health and Human Services and Justice had launched a public-private partnership to prevent health care fraud," NAMD wrote. "The planning for and launch of the initiative lacked any notable consultation with state Medicaid programs."
NAMD noted that in March it issued a report on Medicaid program integrity from a state perspective, including several recommendations. The letter requested several additional collaborative actions, including the following:
• Giving states access to the CMS fraud investigations database and allowing them to contribute data to it. "If a provider is inappropriately billing one system, they are likely taking advantage of multiple systems," NAMD wrote. "Ensuring states have access to this information would be extremely beneficial to Medicaid fraud prevention and detection efforts."
• Working with states to develop a screening and verification program for Medicare and Medicaid providers that shares information and avoids duplication. Many providers are in both Medicare and Medicaid programs, NAMD wrote, but programs CMS contracts with to screen Medicare providers currently don't have to share their results with the states.

By now, most-if not all-must have come across the ongoing debate on whether facebook is a safe social networking platform anymore. To be fair to Mr.Zuck, part of the current brouhaha could be a result of the undercurrent building up as a backlash to FB's spike of success in recent years/months. It is also likely that the concerns are genuine as suggested by a number of active bloggers and tech analysts. I personally believe that while there could be legitimate causes of concerns, eventually the onus of protecting one's privacy rests on the individual. With social networks and cloud collaboration at a high and showing no signs of easing, rest assured this is not the last time we are debating and discussing such concerns.
Nonetheless, I believe that generally people have a tendency to blow things out of proportion. Human beings are liberal in giving others a piece of their minds, be it adulation or criticism.
Do respond to the following poll and let's see what commoners like me and you think this is really all about..!!

LOL. I totally missed this, even when I had the hard copy right under my nose. I can't believe I only knew about this from a Singaporean (for the record, you guys are the most self-centered cold bastards in the world).
Suddenly, I feel like following back Aunt Thelma's column. I used to read it regularly… but it got too repetitive. I just gotta love "her" answer. "Put it on Youtube!" LOL.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Has anyone any experience of running in/ around Skye.
Anyone know of where I can find GPS route downloads?
Cheers guys,
I appreciate the heads up.
I am really looking forward to Skye, and will get out for some descent runs. Can't wait.
Nice one RmcD, Cheers matey, that is brilliant news!!!!
We are going up on the my Birthday, Friday the 23rd !!!!!!!!! Oh yes!!! I am going to enter in the morning.
I will watch out for the traffic on my early morning runs. Hope to do plenty of trail runs so should manage to stay out of the crazy drivers way.
I am more keen on trail runs and fell running as that is what I am more used to. My legs can't take the pounding on the Tarmac, plus I live in the Lake District and the traffic is pretty crazy around here too RmcD.
Cheers again for your advice though. I will not take my ipod with me on the road runs. Dont want to chance being mowed down.
How licky is that!! a race on my first day of the holiday. There is a Gala at the castle too so my family have something to do whilst I tackle the race. great stuff.
Below in quotes is Scobos' post on last year's Dunvegan race - the trophy he mentions is on display at the castle restaurant just now. There'll be plenty to do for the family at Dunvegan while you run. If you like roughish trails consider running through Glen Sligachan to Loch Coruisk - this is a famous walk (about 15miles there and back) amid spectacular scenery and I do know trail runners who have done this as a run rather than a walk.. If you do the Glen Brittle forest trail study a map first - it's about 10-11 miles but I got really lost there once and took a wrong turn which meant I was out for hours. If you're staying near Dunvegan, Greshornish is a good forest trail (on road from Dunvegan to Portree) and there are atmospheric old clearance ruins along the route - my wife walked part of it it while I ran it last time I was there. Hope weather holds for you - on Skye it makes all the difference.
''Headed over to Skye on Saturday for the Dunvegan Castle 10k. Arrived early to enter and was given a route map which rather ominously stated "wet bog area" between 1k and 2k! Had a wander round the kids fun run route which also passed through said area, to be confronted with about an 800 metre climb through a forest, made up of ankle deep mud, puddles and cow shit...so glad I'd brought my shiny white DS Trainers to race in! The muddy trail gave way to a climbing forest track for the following 2k, before a sharp climb to the road and 5.5k of tarmac to the finish. So not quite the advertised "road race".
Anyway, off we set from in front of the castle, with 2 local guys tearing off at the front. I sat in behind them and tried to stay with the pace. Turning onto the muddy section, it got really difficult to see where to place my feet, following closely behind the others with the mud flying, and I took a few Micksta-style slides (those damn Asics!). Had to work hard to stay with the 2 other guys who obviously knew the route pretty well and were piling the pace on. We finally emerged from the mud and the 3 of us had broken well clear from the rest of the field. Settled into a steadier rhythm on the forest track, though the gradient was still making things tough. Reached the road and knew I was feeling in control and my breathing seemed steadier than theirs. Passing 5k I nosed to the front, realised one of the guys was beginning to struggle, and forced the pace for a couple of minutes. Suddenly I had a 30 metre gap behind me, so I just put the hammer down and wound the pace up. Had another glance over my shoulder just before 9k and saw that my lead was decisive, but continued to pile the pace on. Crossed the line in 36.10, winning by 42secs in a new course record, and chuffed to bits! Realised afterwards that I ran a 19.32/16.38 negative split, which just about sums up the course!!! Got presented with a huge trophy (which was swiftly taken from me for engraving and display in the castle restaurant, after I'd had some photos taken with it!), with an engraved quaich to follow. And to cap a fine day, Mrs S was 3rd lady and also got a nice mini-quaich!''
That sounds brilliant RMcD. I will try the 15 miler trail too later in the weeks stay. My family will expect me to be around for most of the time so your help and advice is much appreciated so I can get the most out of my stay there.
Im off out for a run now so see you later.
RMcD, the Glen Brittle Forest Trail looks perfect. I think it must be walk 3.22 in Terry Marsh's Skye wlaking routes book. Do you have a GPX file of it by any chance please?

If Wikipedia is a celebration of crowd wisdom, then Google's newest project is a hat tip to the individual expert. The search giant has announced that it's launching Knol, a site that allows users to submit articles in areas of their expertise. Knol takes a page (or two) from Wikipedia's book by encouraging experts to aggregate their knowledge in an attempt to build a definitive hub for reference materials on the web.
However, it's not a "me too" project across the board. Once an author has submitted an article, it can then be linked to and/or ranked to boost its placement in Google's search results. And if that's not a big enough incentive, Google is planning on sharing a slice of the ad revenue with article authors.
Bringing authors to the front (and paying them) could add a lot of accountability to the oft sketchy world of online reference. But even if Knol strives to produce that end result someday, it's still yet another entry on Google's to-do list today. Although the Googleplex is trumpeting its horns over the announcement, Knol is still in the testing phase — just like OpenSocial and Android. Be sure to visit Udi Manber's post at Google's blog for the full scoop on the project.
Over at our sister blog Compiler, Scott Gilbertson has a post on why Knol is no threat to Wikipedia.Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

Room had 3 small wardrobes for 4 beds a long table and a small TV, however only 3 plugs next to beds.One toilet was rather dirty and the other (hidden in the kitchen) was clean. We booked an extra night at reception with no trouble at a slightly higher price. It felt quite secure and we didn't have an issue leaving bags in the room. "- bethanw239

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by Pessimist_cowboy, Dec 31, 2012.
This thread smells like troll.
Austin, Spears, Sensabaugh, Ratliff, Free, Jenkins, Brent, Moorman and , if at all possible, Garrett And please, for the love of god draft a big time center at #18.
2/3rds of the histrionic posters on this forum...
Jason Garrett
Bring me in a good college staff who are all on the same page and let them build together.
I would add Austin to the list..he's glass and we need full time WR's
I'm tired of this bum. $50 mill for what? Close to a 1000 yrds?
I would keep Sims and Phillips.
Add Austin, McCray, Scandrick, Bernadeau and Garrett OC to the list.
Why do we seem to love CBs who can't tackle? Scandrick, Jenkins and Claiborne all suck as tacklers. The only decent tackling CB we have is Carr.
I'd be lynched for posting my list of who should be gone, so let me say this:
Offense: Dez, Murray, Harris, Witten, Tyron
Defense: Bruce Carter/Sean Lee
Anyone not named above should be expendable, make of that what you will. I can definitely say Sensabaugh should never don the star again
cason vs jenkins
Sensabaugh has to go. How can a starting safety play 15 games and have 0 INTs & only 3 defended passes. Last year he played all 16 games with just 3 PDs! How can you be consistently that far from everything? There were 60 Safeties with more PDs. There were 49 LBs with more. Simply pathetic.
Of that list keep Sims
Let him go, get Vacarro in the draft

Choir concert
The St. Olaf Choir and conductor Anton Armstrong will present a concert at St. John United Methodist Church, 736 Greene St., Augusta, at 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 11. The concert will feature sacred and secular masterpieces, as well as music for chorus and grand pipe organ. Tickets are $30 for adults and $10 for students, and are available at stolaftickets.com or by calling (800) 363-5487.
Design contest
February is the optimal time of the year for chores such as pruning roses and overgrown plants and applying pre-emergent herbicides.
Major pruning of most roses needs to be completed by bud break. Roses respond to pruning and grooming by producing flowers in greater quantity. For most roses, heavier pruning yields larger, more attractive flowers. Major pruning is done in early spring before growth begins, while grooming is done throughout the growing season.
Organizers of the Evans Towne Farmers Market are putting out a call to local growers and vendors in anticipation of their second season beginning in March.
The market will open on Thursday, March 20, and will run until late October, according to Kim Hines, a co-manager of the market managed by Augusta Locally Grown.

StatArb: Instrumentation View – Part 9
Part 8 of this series of articles offer one possible User Experience (UX) for this statarb ETF application. However, from a development perspective we require an instrumentation view of what is happening in the server – an engineering view 🙂 This engineering view ideally should provide a visualization of all the agents running, coupled with data on messaging being processed per agent, latency, etc – essentially the usual data points. Ideally this instrumentation view should also visualize GC usage, CPU usage etc, to provide a complete view of the servers health and performance.
Although rather old now compared to what we have within the application, here's an "engineering view" – this particular view is of a single constituent of an ETF:

Texas Ranch Roundup Preparations are Underway
Ten historic ranches will battle it out and raise money for three charities starting Friday at the MPEC.
The annual Texas Ranch Roundup showcases some of the best in cowboy culture.
Everything from nightly rodeos, talent competitions, and cooking competitions highlight the two days of events.
Yesterday, a legion of volunteers converged on the MPEC to begin setting up more than 200 booths in the exhibit hall.
And, it's their effort that has organizers thankful.
"Throughout the whole weekend it takes about 300 volunteers to make this event run and there are five of us who are actually staff members for the Texas Ranch Roundup, but we couldn't do it without those many volunteers."
In the over 30- year history of the roundup, over 3-million dollars has been raised," says event coordinator Ashley Sims.
The North Texas Rehabilitation Center, West Texas Boys Ranch, and West Texas Rehabilitation Center hope to see that number climb yet again this year.
For more information on the Texas Ranch Roundup click here.

As more signs point to strengthening economic activity in the US and selected regions of other parts of the world, corporate austerity is fading and growth is back in the spotlight. Acquiring customers, improving the customer experience, and growing revenues have returned to center stage.
Forrester asked more than 2,000 global business decision-makers at large organizations what their "critical" and "high" priorities are for the next 12 months. We found that:

Where I stayed
White Bridge Campground
In the park, I spent some time at the overlook, taking pictures and listening to the park ranger. I was planning to take my wonderful new zoom lens, but I could tell after 10 minutes at the overlook that it was going to be heavy, so back to the car it went.
I descended down a long series of switchbacks into the canyon, walked through "Wall Street," and then did the Peekaboo Loop. Peekaboo Loop is a horse trail through the canyon and along the "Wall of Windows." I was going to try to describe it, but then I came across a lovely description on someone else's page that exactly describes our route, so I copied it and modified it slightly.
Original source: http://climb-utah.com/Bryce/queens.htm
start quote
From the Sunset Point Trailhead follow the trail east over the rim into Bryce Canyon. Take the signed "Navajo Loop" trail to the right as it descends fairly steeply into a fantasyland of pinnacles and spires. If you are immediately presented with two dozen switchbacks descending down into "Wall Street" you are on the correct route. Wall Street is a short slot canyon named after New York's skyscrapers that tower over Wall Street in Manhattan.
The Navajo Trail through Wall Street is only 0.7 miles long and ends at a four-way junction. The trail to the left is the remainder of the Navajo Loop and leads back to the canyon rim. The trail straight ahead leads to Queens Garden, we will do this trail later. The trail to the right is where we want to go. The trail leads to the Peekaboo Loop. After 0.3 miles you will encounter a junction where you will need to make a right turn. Walk 30 yards to the beginning of the Peekaboo Loop. The Peekaboo Loop can be hiked in either direction, many consider the Wall of Windows to be more sensational when hiked in a clockwise direction so that is how I will describe the trail. The Peekaboo Loop is also open to guided horse tours. Inquire at the Bryce Canyon Lodge if you would prefer to ride a horse.
Take the left trail to begin the 3.0 mile Peekaboo Loop in a clockwise rotation. As you begin the loop you will see the Fairy Castle above you on the left and Bryce Point straight ahead to the south. 1.3 miles around Peekaboo Loop you will meet a trail coming down from Bryce Point, take the trail to the right to stay on Peekaboo loop. From here it is 1.7 miles back to the start of the loop. 300 yards past the Bryce Point junction you will pass a small corral and vault toilet. Shortly after the restroom the trail begins to swing back in the direction you came from and the Wall of Windows is visible on your left. From the Wall of Windows the trail winds among the hoodoos and will shortly pass by the Cathedral on the left and return to the trail junction at the beginning of the loop.
From the beginning of the Peekaboo Loop you must backtrack 0.3 miles to the four-way junction at the bottom of the Navajo Trail. From the bottom of the four-way junction follow the signed Queens Garden trail north for 1.6 miles to a junction. The trail to the right leads up to Sunrise Point. The trail to the left leads 75 yards to "End of Trail" and the center of Queens Garden. You will have a great view of the hoodoo known as Queen Victoria. From Queens Garden follow the short trail back to the junction and take the signed trail 0.9 miles as it climbs to Sunrise Point. From Sunrise Point you must hike 0.5 miles south along the Rim Trail to reach the Sunset Point Trailhead.

I was about to die by the end of the hike. I wasn't used to the altitude and also had issues with my back. But the views were stunning, so it was completely worth it!

The region: South West
Average prices here have dropped badly according to all leading indices, although homes still cost a mean of over £205,000, 5 per cent above the UK average and up to 13 times the typical wage in some areas - out of reach for many local people. Land Registry data shows rural areas faring significantly worse than urban ones. Within Devon, for example, prices in the north, east and moors areas dropped 4 to 8 per cent in the first quarter compared with the previous quarter, although Torbay rose 4 per cent and holiday home hotspot the South Hams was up 1.7 per cent. Most of Cornwall and Dorset was also down in the first quarter, while Bath and Bristol saw small dips, with price growth rates still over 10 per cent.
Doing well
The retirement sector, a major part of the housing industry, is stable because most of its buyers are down-sizing from elsewhere, so bring plenty of equity from their old home. The top end is doing well too, including Sandbanks in Dorset, where developers buy out owners of bungalows and 1970s apartment blocks, knock them down and replace them with new high-price homes. Lettings agents say the rental market is especially strong in Exeter thanks to new firms moving in, a growing student population and a successful regeneration of the city centre.
Doing badly
The mid- to low-end of the market is in the doldrums. While market appraisals, instructions and viewings are not down significantly, sales agreed are, says Martin Bowen-Ashwin of Humberts. 'Up to £750,000, the year-on-year sales ratio has gone from five viewings to agree a sale to more than 20 viewings. Over £750,000 the demand is still high against supply with about 50 buyers to every property, with competitive bidding still common.'
Particularly vulnerable is Plymouth, where vast areas of Millbay Docks district are being redeveloped; work has slowed on some schemes because of a fear of an over-supply thanks to the difficulty in buyers getting mortgages.
Tell-tale signs
National estate agency Haart has closed two offices in Plymouth and regional agency Bradleys has closed two offices in Devon. Agents report little demand for second-home cottages -critical for north Cornwall and south Devon in particular, where 10 per cent of properties are holiday homes. June and July here are usually the busiest months but no one is expecting brisk business now.

Great Product, fast shipping and fresh!
Didn't make a huge difference

I have been taking this brand for a month. The pills are kinda big. I normally like everything from this brand, but this time I didn't really notice much effects from taking this. I did notice that at night it caused me to sleep a little better. maybe it takes longer than a month to notice a huge difference. I have decided to continue taking phosphatidylserine, just in another brand.
