"'Yung gagawin ho para dito sa Laguna de Bay, malawakan po yun. 'Di po agarang magagawa 'yan. Ihihinto po natin yung pag-angat ng tubig nang mabilis. Dike na malaking-malaki 'yan, di ho kapiraso lang at medyo taon ho ang pinag-uusapan natin d'yan" said by President Benigno Aquino III when he visited Laguna a year ago for a relief operation. (source from inquirer.net).
In addition, that was not the first time when President Aquino told this dike project. He mentioned this back in 2012 when he visited flood victims of Marikina, Valenzuela, and Navotas.
Meanwhile, the State of the Nation Address (SONA) of President Aquino last August 1, 2014 has mentioned the construction of Laguna Lakeshore Expressway Dike again. A mega dike in Laguna is one of the top public private partnership (PPP) projects that would and a bid for it will take place before 2014 ends. Moreover, Aquino said that the government won't spend anything, except for a portion of the reclaimed land that will serve as the payment to the winning bidder.
True enough, that this project would somehow help the residents to avoid flood. However, the project is long overdue. Perhaps the Aquino administration has not been prioritizing this plan. Was it because of poor delegation of duties, or because there were a pile of projects waiting to be implemented, too?
Even though the Laguna dike is not the primary solution for floods in the area, as simple waste management and observing a clean and green environment are still important. I hope that this project would not cause another problem. The eyes of the Filipino citizens are glaring with great expectations.

A long but beautiful drive
... colours of the trees and the brilliant green of the grass was amazing.
E failed to get any lunch as we discovered that 11:11 is a bank holiday in France and everywhere was closed! So we arrived at the hotel at 5:00 pm and were starving! We checked in and the owner kindly provided us with pate and bread and a glass of red....perfect!
... lavender flavour, which was really delicious.
Back up the enormous cobbled street, the ice cream was worked off. How steep is our street? "The montée du Gourguillon has a length of 400 meters with a climb of 53
meters, which represents a slope of just over 7.5° on average. The
street is wholly paved and has no sidewalk from its bottom to its
intersection with the montée des Épies and has at regular intervals
(every 10 meters) small steps ...
... as Paris, but it is much calmer, and to me, far more beautiful. Benoit was my host in Lyon, and he proved himself again to be one of the most amazing people we (mum and I) know. As for Lyon, it was much more laid back with two different rivers running through the city, and lots of places to just relax. The roman theatre which overlooks the city is one of my favourite places ever. If you can just go and spend half a day reading in the grass. So brilliant. Aside ...
Sad to leave the Tarn
... of St Michael that sits up high upon a rock. We understand why chateaus and fortresses are built on such sites but a church!!!!! On to Lyon, we enter the city by following the path of the Rhone River. The Saone and Rhone rivers meet within the city of Lyon and the area inside the fork of the two rivers is a large the section of the old city and where we are staying. With lots of one way and narrow streets we wind our way up the a steep hill to our accommodation which is ...
From Saint-Amand-Montrond to Lyon
... then head back to the camper. Kerry heads off for a bike ride, and has just got back, says he went 20ks up the road then when he wanted to come back the cops said you can't go on the road, so he snuk around and pretended not to hear and sped past them, as if he didn't follow the yellow arrows he wouldn't know where he was going. We are just near a ice hockey rink, at La Duchere and will wonder up to the 15km barrier to watch ...

UVDI Celebrates 20 Years of Service and Innovation
UltraViolet Devices, Inc. (UVDI) recognizes two decades of UV and molecular filtration technological advancements and success.
Three generations ago, Louis Veloz was an engineer for Westinghouse when its R&D engineers developed and patented the first commercial ultraviolet lamps. Mr. Veloz was intrigued by this new technology and in 1949 purchased a Westinghouse UV lamp dealership. Forty-three years later, UltraViolet Devices, Inc. was founded by Tom Veloz, the son of Louis. At the time, Tom was the successful owner and CEO of Aquafine, a commercial water UV manufacturing company.
"UVDI was founded by my father in 1992 with a vision to become a world class designer and manufacturer of ultraviolet products," commented Peter Veloz, CEO and Chairman of UVDI and third generation co-owner along with his brother David. "Pursuing that vision for over twenty years my father Tom, and now my brother David and I, have guided UVDI's growth into an international supplier of UVGI technology and products and have also diversified the business into activated carbon filtration. Today, UVDI provides sustainable, green, energy savings and healthy solutions in many applications that benefit millions of people around the globe," he continued.

Baseball U was established in the winter of 2006. John Wells is the National Director of Baseball U that is based in Central New Jersey located on the Jersey Shore.
The program started with one team has now expanded to 5 organizations in four states. Programs can now be found in Fairfield, CT, Scranton, PA, Syracuse, NY, North NJ and where it all began at the Jersey Shore in New Jersey.
In the past 9 years the organization has helped over 468 players move on to college and it has also had 87 Alumni selected in the Major League Draft including 8 first round selections with the team having a 1st round selected in the past 5 MLB Drafts from 2016-2012 and 7 1st round selections in the past 5 years.
The program has a strong relationship with the colleges nationwide. While Baseball U has players playing at every level the relationship between the organization and the SEC and ACC conference is very strong with 29 players moving on to play in both of those conferences the past 3 years. If you are considered an "elite" player this would be a good start to look into your college future. If you are a good player looking to take your game to the next level than we can help you as well. Take a look at our list of players and where they have went. Click Here
No other program north of Virginia has placed more players into Division 1 schools or had more players selected in the Major League Draft.
At Baseball U a player is developed from the ground up and we guarantee he will leave a more educated player in the game of baseball. We will never make a promise that we can get your son into a certain school. If we did that we would be lying to the player and family. Only the player himself can do this between his grades and his performance on the field. We only promise to develop and educate the player and the rest is up to them. We will expose them to the schools but their performance on the field is what will ultimately earn them their place in college.
The program has an excellent schedule for those players that are in the recruiting stages of the process.
We feel if we start at younger ages and concentrate on proper mechanics it will be easier for them to develop as they mature and become stronger.
Baseball U is 6 time PG Northeast WWBA and BCS Champions. Most recently Baseball U Prospects finished the highest out of any northeast team at the Perfect Game WWBA National Championships with a 9th place finish. This made the second time in a row (2015/2016) that the team finished in the top 16 in the country. Baseball U's highest finishes were 3rd place (2011) and 5th place (2010).

The built-in screen guard of the OBEX will shield against some of the worst accidents; rain, scratches or spills. The screen guard itself promotes touch sensitivity and clarity, so you won't have to worry about the quality of your display being diminished.
Other features that may peak your interest include the OBEX's IP68 rating, meaning that it's both dust-tight and protected against complete submersion. The most critical points of entry are even blocked by a two-stage protection system. As for the camera: the anti-reflection glass protects the lens without interfering with the quality of your photos.
Let's not forget the included OBEX Holster. This heavy duty holster sports a spring-clip that lifts for quick and easy access, locking in place when secured. The adjustable swivel belt-clip rotates in 7 different angles, so finding your comfort zone shouldn't be hard.
If you need more convincing that this iPhone 6S Plus or iPhone 6 Plus waterproof combo is the real deal, try one out for yourself. You can be sure that your device will stay unweathered, but will you?

Reference Name LCNUG : 1988/1
An English longcase clock. It follows the general construction principles of John Harrison's precision wooden clocks but differs in some details.
this follows the Harrison style of a gilt decoration on a black background
typical of the region at this period
English oak construction of the frame, plates and wheels, the bars of the main frame are mortice and tenoned at 22 points; although built in a similar way to a Harrison wheel with radial grained segments let into a deep slot around the periphery of the wheel, the teeth are set alternately to either side of the width of the wheel; the pinions which have large lignum vitae rolers are set in a similar plane; this layout has the advantage in that a very wide tooth form is possible together with an extremely large diameter of the roller; all friction is therefore rolling
the escapement has pallets of lignum vitae with brass composers mounted within a brass frame; the crutch is divided to permit a fine beat adjustment; this is arranged by the vertical lever and balance arm assembly mounted to the reverse of the movement; the pendulum is impulsed through the medium of a pin fitted to the crutch; the pendulum beats seconds; the escape wheel has 60 teeth and as it completes 1 revolution in 2 minutes, the seconds dial is divided and numbered 1 to 60 twice; maintaining power is provided within the third wheel; this wheel is mounted freely on its arbor and incorporates a barrel containing a pre-loaded coil spring; the wheel is driven by a driving piece but it is prevented from reverse rotation by a ratchet and gravity pawl; the pre-loaded spring provides an ample auxiliary during winding; the movement is of an 8 day duration; the wooden winding key is very finelymade and has acquired a very high natural polish
Physical Dimensions:
- clock height: 225 cms
- clock length: 43.5 cms
- clock width: 27.3 cms
Material: oak, lignum vitae, mahogany & brass
Condition: good
Quantity: 1
Completeness: complete
Period: 19th Century
Production Place: Barton On Humber, Lincolnshire, UK
clockmaker: Sutton, Robert
Commentary: An English longcase clock. It follows the general construction principles of John Harrison's precision wooden clocks but differs in some details. It has an eight day movement of English oak throughout, with large lignum vitae rollers and all wheel pivot bearings. Thus the movement requires no additional lubrication at any time. It has a grasshopper escapement with a wooden winding key. The case is mahogany, with a mahogany ebonised dial with gilt decoration on a black ground. The hood is surmounted by unique ebonised ball finials with brass embellishments, and the pediment terminates in mother of pearl and ivory paterae. The free standing ribbed columns have Corinthian capitals. Has wooden winding key

Grade Three; Part One, Painful Bring Up; One Extra Life Remaining
Jamie had made a few friends. It was part of the smarter group of kids. Also, it had made friends with the trouble makers of the school. Jamie was having issues thinking of itself as either male or female. Jamie was a person. The boys seemed odd--but it was not part of the girls group.
At home, it would start playing with its genitals. Mostly pushing the head inside the pelvis. Working to push the testicles back in and up. Jamie honestly had no idea what a woman's parts looked like. But hey--it could not be that different from this, right? His peepee was on the inside when he did this, and the balls were pushed inside--so it meant they were ovaries, right? I mean, that made total sense to Jamie's head.
It was also having issues dealing with home life. Its mom seemed to be getting rather stressed. Having a bigger desire to cause trouble it seemed. More agitated than ever. Its dad seemed angry, at it--for some reason Jamie's dad just felt more anger and dislike toward Jamie. Was Jamie not being a proper boy for its father? It is only until Jamie turned eighteen of course--to be polite. It lives in Mom's and Dad's house. It is only polite to follow their rules.
Both Mom and Dad had said, on several ocassions, "Once you move out, and get your own house, I do not care what the hell you do. Do anything for all I care! While you are here, you follow my rules!"
Jamie groaned--not enjoying how this was turning out. It was a trouble maker now--not fitting in, and seeming to do things in a completely wrong fashion. No matter what it tried to do.
Jamie had gotten put into Mrs. Burren's Class. The most strictest teacher in their school. Due to the year Jamie was in, it seemed that grade would have two classes, and one split with the year above it. Jamie had entered into a Grade 3/4 Split class.
Of course Jamie had its friends. Mike and Matt. Well, it never seemed to get along with Mike. Though, Mike was friends with Matt, and Jamie really did not have any desire to tell Matt he was not to talk to Mike--as that would end with Matt saying, "screw you Jamie"--that is if Jamie ever got the notion to think it was Its place to tell who Matt could and could not talk to.
Matt, Mike and Jamie would walk home from school together, often through farmers fields, swamps and really anything. Ocassionally with Mike's two older brothers Tom and ol' whats his face. Most of the time, however, it was just Jamie, Mike and Matt.
Often talking about various items that seemed cool. With plenty of pretending. One time, they were knights of the old. They had stopped to drink water from a puddle, Mike offers the advice, "you know, thirteen out of fourteen knights would get very sick drinking water, because it was not clean."
Jamie considered how there were water treatment plants these days, and about the few times Mom had to boil tap water, as otherwise it was unsafe to drink. "Yeah--they'd have to boil it, to have it be safe."
Mike stands tall, "you know--Becky has been wearing bras lately. She appears to have been growing boobs." Mike goes off about Becky and various ways she had developed.
Jamie's face twinges. Matt keeps walking, but Mike notices something, "what is wrong?"
Jamie getting all flustered--his peepee had gotten rock hard. It never felt good. He had issues imagining any worse pain. It was okay, for maybe a minute--but then the pain just got horribly huge. "Uh--down there... it has gotten hard."
Jamie was glad it had started taking to wearing sweat pants. The only thing more painful than getting hard for two or more minutes was getting hard in a restrictive pair of pants. Mike's eyebrow lifts, "what?"
Jamie, kind of squirming--as this hurt. It really did, "when I think about people I really like, it gets hard. Becky, Daniel, Tom, Mrs. Shymko, Richard--I have to relax to have it go down... as it hurts. The longer I leave it--the more painful it hurts."
Mike hurrumphs, turns around and begins to walk to Matt, who had stopped, "I am jealous. I wish I could do that!"
Jamie just looks at Mike like he was the most crazy person Jamie had ever known, "what? Do you know how much it hurts?!"
Mike just says the cryptic odd statement, "it is suppose to be a good thing to be able to do that."
Mike and Matt start to feel a bit sick in the stomach, Jamie still walking around. Having at least stopped talking about people Jamie thinks are pretty neat, Jamie ends up not getting as much pain coming from down there. Matt mentions, "ooh, I think Jamie is the fourteenth knight."
Mrs. Burren was a tough as nails teacher. Not so much scary, just everything needed to be exact. Extremely exact. Mrs. Burren was one of the teachers that started yelling at her students that yes, sound does indeed travel around corners. That if her students start to make noise directly after she goes out and turns the corner, that she can hear it. I was not certain how many of them really cared though.
They did not like the notion of just sitting their quietly. They wanted to talk to their friends. Socialise and play. Yeah, work still got done--but the notion of doing it quietly was fairly repugnant. To be fair, class of seven, eight and nine year olds being quiet is a very unnatural idea. Very creepy really. Horror movie levels of creepy.
Jamie was wanting to accel and do well--but Jamie also did not like how it was suppose to do this. Trying to learn this way got boring and dull after a while. Usually being bored got it into a mischievous mood. What trouble could Jamie cause when really really bored? Luckily Mrs. Burren had some play time classes.
These were mostly whe she had gone off to teach the Grade 4 kids, and did not have an assignment to tell the Grade 3 kids to work on while doing it. These were little cards with puzzles on them to be solved, or at least figured out. Once one ws done, you got another one. Naturally, Jamie was in the race to finish them first. Jamie placed in Third. Alan got first, Bohdan got second.
Mind you. Jamie did do enough trouble to have its desk put aside as the trouble student. Mostly so that it could be watched. Jamie was a trouble maker--at least where its desk was place, Jamie was not able to cause trouble. Not able to cause as much trouble. In this year, Jamie got to play on the other side of the school grounds. One side had grade one and grade two kids playing. This other side had Grade three and Grade four kids.
Some of the Grade four kids had found some ripped up shreds of skin magazines. Since there was a major road near the school, it was simple to just troll the ditch for some cool stuff. Apparently, the older kids had found torn porn in the ditch. Just small scraps from the ads in the back. Mostly for 1900 numbers and expensive videos. Jamie did not bother noting the numbers--it honestly doubted its parents would be okay paying to dial a 1900 number. Its parents were stingy like that--if anything cost money to get usually it was a big no, to doing it.
Apparently, Mike must have told his older brothers about Jamie's little painful issue. As they started sharing images, asking which ones Jamie liked. This was also when it seemed they had started asking Jamie to hand around. Jamie said sure--if Mike was okay with him being around. As Jamie was technically Mike's friend. As Mike was closer to Jamie's age than Tom.
They showed a few pictures that Jamie had no idea what was going on. It was kind of confusing. Large round mounds that sometimes had black dots over the centers--or a back dot directly in the middle. Then there were ones of spread legs with black dot making it legs and a dot. Jamie felt himself get hard. The last few weeks and months had him able to build up a pain tolerance--allowing him to have it up for nearly fourty five minutes before the pain got to be too much for him to bare.
Apparently it was a contest for how long one could keep it up, or something.
Jamie did note see seemed to like the ones of the girls putting that long weird thing with a black dot on the end into their mouth the most interesting. Mike and Tom's older brother, ol' whatshisface laughed and pulled out another picture, with Tom seeing what he was doing told him to put that back. Jamie did not need to see that. Jamie did not need to be scared from porn forever.
"Hey, why not let me decide. Most of these seem rather--silly. they are mostly black dots. I cannot tell what is going on."
Tom turns his head, "oh, no--this one is just horrible to look at. You... you do not want to see this."
Tom looks back at ol'whatshisface irritatedly. Jamie gets up, fists on her hips, "look! I am not some stupid kid! I can be much more smart and mature than the others! I am not going to get scared from something like some small child!"
Tom lets ol'whatshisface hand me the picture. The long thick puzzling flesh rod thing was in this one--but it has a man sucking it instead of a girl. "Yeah--this one is not bad. The boy looks a bit prettied up--but it looks nice, I guess. Why did you think it be horrifying."
Tom and ol'whatshisface seemed a bit disturbed. They looked at their images and started doing stuff--telling Jamie it could not be near while they did it. They had taken the round mound pictures with black dots in the centres with them. Jamie did offer to return these new pictures with guys--they were not interested... Jamie really could not doing anything with it. Tom told ol'whatshisface, "actually, it is best if Jamie does not have those. What if he gets caught with them on him?"
At which point ol'whatshisface took them back.
The year would have been 1993, when this happened. So keep in mind, just the fact ol'whatshisface had this on his person--if only for shock value (which is what it seemed to be)--was risky enough.
Though, creepiness aside, it was at this point, it seems Tom and ol'whatshisface seemed to work to be more protective of Jamie. Generally bothering people that picked on Jamie--even when Jamie would tell them it was her own fault... they were more than prepared to mention what the other party's faults were.
James was pretty sure this was when she started getting invited to more stuff at their house. Because Jamie was Mike's friend--but it seemed Mike did not seem to agree. Mike would make comments about being forced. With his parents saying that it was Mike's idea. With Tom and ol'whatshisface to frown at him a lot. With Tom and ol'whatshisface telling Jamie to duck away, and not talk to their dad. As apparently Mike's dad was a scary person who did not like people like Jamie.
Well--I guess some Dads do not like a lot children around. Yeah--Jamie was bit smarter, she still had her annoying traits. So, I guess hiding from him was a good idea, maybe? Tom and ol'whatshisface did mention Jamie had a few very annoying traits their dad would not like.
I dunno, looking at this, I have to wonder if what I think happened was Tom telling Mike that he HAD to be friends with the gay kid. I can nearly see Mike going, "but I don't want to be friends with him."
"Look, we will make your life a living hell, if you are not friends with the gay kid!"
If it were only as simple as James being gay. It should be noted that a few other of the older boys did start to get very protective of Jamie. Most of these were the ones that would move out of this town. Usually with something about a spat between their parents and the son. A form of really really angry argument. James usually lost contact.
Nobody really told Jamie what the fight was about--other than it was just really serious. Jamie was told, "it was adult stuff you would not understand."
There was even one time, that two older boys had hung out with Jamie--and based on her description of what they told her, they appeared to have been describing certain items about STIs, using wheat plants to try to describe it. Jamie admits she had no idea what it was they were going on about. One of the two boys, had one of those arguments that night with his father. Though--these occurances were more in Jamie's grade four year--they are more tied to the events of grade three.
Grade three also added a teasing name for Jamie that irritated her for no end. One very popular to the older kids. They had started calling her "Jamie Payne... IN THE BUTT!". It was only the older kids--and Jamie knew it was a very bad thing from how they said it. The kids would make motions of what Jamie thought was kicking happening.
Jamie knew it was bad--but only registered it as she was just really, really annoying. Thus the name.
To make things worse--apparently the only person in the school worse than her, had transfered to Jamie's school this year. Amber Rollheiser. It was mostly kids in her class--none of the older kids. Apparently, she picked her nose, was over weight and a few other items that made her a target for teasing.
Apparently, being fat for girls was a bad thing. Jamie went along--but never really got that part. Jamie liked a few of the over weight girls. They were fairly good people. Though, Jamie knew that they would never straighten up, unless they were teased--or something. Apparently teasing fat people made them less fat. Well, Jamie would do his best to conform--and be a good person--why not help them along.
Jamie still makes a stomach churning face, as one day her longest friend--the one whose party had started the tiff between Jamie and Dawn for giving the same gave--was outside playing dolls by herself. She was fairly overweight. The other kids snickered--good, Jamie could score points by calling her fat. Maybe Jamie could get up from the second lowest rung on the social ladder? Also, make fun of the fact she is playing Barbies. Not something older kids do. Only younger kids play with Barbies.
Jamie's stomach churns, as Sarah sat there, almost hiding, without a friend, and the Barbies appeared to not have any clothing. Jamie only kept teasing, as it allowed her to forget how much seeing Sarah like that stung. "Why was she hiding there? Why were her dolls naked? Why did it look like she had been crying?"

My name is Ginger Bluepul. I'm 15 years old and im a soffamore at McTresser high. I'm going to tell you a bit about my life. i live with my dad and my little brother Justin in a condo at the end of town. My little brother is eight years old and goes to Scieser elementary. He gets on my nerves all the time. My dad on the other hand, is a little srtange. He loves zebras, my dad has all zebra print in our house and collects fantasy photo frames. Five years ago my parents divorced and just a year ago my mom got re-married. Can you belive her? Anyway, i have wavy hair thats kind of ginger colored(maybe thats where i got my name) My eyes are hazel brown and i have these ugly freekles on my cheeks. they make me look like a hillbilly! ew! My best friend Natasha is beautiful! She has straight, light brown hair that reaches her lower back. Her eyes are sparkling blue and she is a normal sized person. As for me, i'm so tall. I love my best friend, she is always there for me.
I kind of have a crush on carl Ally. Last year Natasha even went out with him. She is so lucky and he even kissed her on the cheek!(keyword:kissed) This year he's going out with Nicole Iandale. She is a big snob but has great hair and the most beautiful face. Her best friend is Alex Buffer. Alex is so tiny but is really popular. Then, there is Chaz Rolento. He's kind of cute but very........let's say strange. I knew himfor a while and i think he likes me. In fifth grade he even asked me out but i turned him down because my parents did'nt let me date!
Practically everyone i know had their first kiss......except me! Natasha did with Jake Rilook,(her current boyfriend). This year i hope to get mine but with who? i always wondered who was my prince charming, was it carl? or chaz? or who? Anyway, i got to hit the sack because tomorrow is picture day and i've got to get up early.

This is a very good teen book! I liked the Meg Cabot style of describing all the people. Ginger seems like a character you can relate to. I want to read more! I'm adding this to my reading list. My only problem is capitization and spelling, but otherwise quite nice. Would you like to read my novel, "In The Mirror"? I also have only one chapter, I hope you like it.
damn u mina ur getting more comments than me. lmao good storyy. i remember reading ur rough draft. hope she ends up with Chaz
I love it! I can't wait to read the rest when you put it up!
Wow, im not really into the "teen love" scene, but this is very good.
U have a way of describing that I have yet to master.
I enjoyed reading it and im looking forward to more.
coolness! i noticed some mistakes but who cares when u got a story this good =)

Photoville Brooklyn Announces Artist Talks, Workshops, Events
Posted by Conor Risch on Friday June 8, 2012 | Events, Fine Art, Fun
Posted by Conor Risch on Friday June 8, 2012 | Events, Fine Art, Fun
When the inaugural Photoville event kicks off on June 22 in Brooklyn, New York's Brooklyn Bridge Park, not only will it boast a village of exhibitions housed in 30 freight containers, it will also include plenty of educational programming and events for visitors.
The slate of artist talks, lectures, workshops and other events run June 23-24. On the 23rd, BagNewsNotes editor Michael Shaw will speak about the state of news photography, and a panel discussion moderated by Pete Brook of Prison Photography blog fame will discuss "documentary, institutional, vernacular and legal photography and the political uses of images by media."
That night MediaStorm will give a presentation on "digital storytelling and the cinematic narrative."
Workshops that run on both days will cover topics like analogue photography, printing, light painting and zine making.
Programming on the June 24th will include a talk about contemporary documentary photography by Ed Kashi, Lori Grinker and Benjamin Lowy, moderated by Glenn Ruga, and a talk about how photography is being used to promote human rights.
That night there is a "show and tell" opportunity for anyone who wants to bring work and talk about it for three minutes, and throughout the day the Center for Alternative Photography will run a "Tintype Photo Booth" where visitors can have their portrait made and learn about this alternative photo process.
There is a slate of exhibitions by photographers from all over the world. For example, Open Society Institute will show Wyatt Gallery's work from Haiti; Nooderlicht in the Netherlands will present 11 photographers documenting life in prison; The Magnum Foundation will exhibit recent work by Bruce Gilden and Sim Chi Yin. Feature Shoot is showing work by young photographers, and PDN is showing the winners of The Curator contest.
Add to all this the beer garden and food, and the dog run where you can get photos taken of your pooch at play.

Snow Art
"Grow Your Own Borax Crystal Snowflake"
Best Ever Six-Sided Snowflake
Sparkle Snow Paint
A "Self-sticking" Snowflake
The great thing about these snowflakes is that they stick to any shiny surface like a refrigerator or glass window. Put the snowflake pattern in the plastic baggie and zip closed. On the outside of the baggie trace over the snowflake pattern with the fabric paint. My mom makes me wear old clothes or a craft apron to do this part because it's easy to get some paint on your clothes. While the snowflake is still wet sprinkle glitter over the paint. Carefully shake off any excess glitter. Let dry. When completely dry peel off the baggy and put it up somewhere where every one can see it!

Charleston to Savannah- inside or outside?
Looking for the pros and cons of these two routes. The coastal route would not be an overnight but a two day hop with an overnight -perhaps Edisto...
Have many years of great lakes sailing experience but the ICW or a 2 day coastal hop will be new experiences. Personal observations or concerns for rookies would be appreciated.
(have the charts and guides... Always enjoy the personal observations from this forum)
Charleston to Savannah- inside or outside?
We did ICW from Hilton Head to Charleston last year as new owners of a Newport 30. Loved the scenery along the way! Takes longer, but nice, if you've got the time.
Re: Charleston to Savannah- inside or outside?
Mostly depends on if you want to sail or motor.
There's several ways to make the trip. And I should note, I've never gone into Savannah, I always go to the north end of Hilton Head Island.
3 days on the ICW. Anchor at Tom's Point, then Beaufort, then Savannah.
A long day, with a dawn start to the north end of Hilton Head (10 -11 hours at 5.5 knots) I'd rather put in my long day at the beginning. From Skull Creek (where I anchor) you can motor around the back side of Hilton Head down to Tybee Roads. You could also go to the South End and grab a marina, time permitting.
Leave Charleston late afternoon and overnight to Savannah.
Re: Charleston to Savannah- inside or outside?
Damn..beezer..is that a typo or do you really have over 14,000 posts in 10 years...?..Sorry...I don't think I or anyone could improve on your appraisal of the trip from Charleston to Savannah...
Re: Charleston to Savannah- inside or outside?
I made the offshore trek last year in a 32 Islander from Canaveral, FL to Charleston then outside again to Beaufort, NC. You're biggest consideration is the weather window, we were becalmed for about half of our journey to Charleston but it was still nice, spotted dolphins all the way! If you have the equipment, experience and the weather is with you, the outside is always fun (in my book), but I will note that some of the prettiest scenery I had to take in was through the ICW in Carolina.
Re: Charleston to Savannah- inside or outside?
I live in Beaufort SC, and have been working on my experience near-shore. I want to make 4 or 5 trips this year. I may do Race week the week of the 11th April in Charleston. I would like to do both the ICW and the near shore route. What happens to the current between the the inlet to the Broad river / St, Helena and Charleston Inlet? I have experience with the extreme flow coming and going at Port Royal. I'm just not experienced between the cuts and don't know what to expect between. I use the flow to help in my navigation, "leave with the tide- return with the tide" It is almost always a southerly wind blowing will I have to beat the whole way back or do I just motor the whole way?
Sorry for so many questions.
Thanks for your help.
Re: Charleston to Savannah- inside or outside?
You're heading south. If you're going further than GA skip Savannah and go Charleston to St. Mary's River (Cumberland Island, Fernandina Beach). Much easier than cutting back in to Savannah. Unless you really want to go all the way up the river and visit the old Savannah waterfront you wont miss much.
Re: Charleston to Savannah- inside or outside?
Can I make that in 1 day?
Re: Charleston to Savannah- inside or outside?
CD28. Info on your boat such as draft, is a little thin. Georgia has some very shallow spots along the ICW route that will need to be transited mid to high tide depending on your draft. Of course you won't have those issues offshore. I would suggest looking at the Cruisers Net website for details. Having said that, we would not miss traveling through Georgia. The waterway is peaceful and beautiful. There are many, many anchorages to stop for the night or wait for the tides. You decide. Chuck
Re: Charleston to Savannah- inside or outside?
Thanks for the information. I draw 5'

Chinese Art
Lancaster University's collection includes examples of seventeenth century Chinese art as well as works by twentieth century Chinese artists. These items were collected by the eminent scientist and Honorary Research Fellow at Lancaster University, Professor Irène Manton FRS. Professor Manton first began to collect art after visiting an exhibition of Chinese Art at the Royal Academy of Arts in London in 1935. As a scientist she was particularly interested in the detailed studies of nature produced by Chinese artists.
Works in this collection include scroll and fan paintings, ink rubbings, and prints. A wide range of these works have been shown at the gallery in the exhibition ' The Qi and the Yun: The Essence of Chinese Painting', which has also toured to other venues in the UK. Among the artists whose work was represented were Zhao Shao-Ang, Ch'I Pai-Shih, Xu Beihong and Zao Wu-Ki.
The collection is not on permanent display but a number of works are shown as part of changing exhibitions. Please contact the gallery for information about works currently on display or to arrange to view items by appointment.

If O'Reilly's breakout didn't count

Still absolutely confused why his defensive game is suddenly not a difference maker
, yet only a few months ago people we're swooning over him. Avs won't give him up cheap, why pretend you can negotiate a discount on a fan forum by ignoring his obvious defensive superiority?
Not once did I say it didn't count, Eberle had 43 well missing a few games and followed it up with 73, ROR had 26,26,55 I said i want to see him put up another good season to follow this one beofore I would put him in the best young player disscusion. Also I have said is the defense game that makes him better than Gagner this whole time but not to the extent people are saying.

You really forget where you are here and forget about all your worries and indulge in the surroundings which is a beautiful green rainforest. I felt like I was in a Herbal Essence commercial! My boyfriend and I stayed here one night, went on a weekday and ended up being the only ones staying at the resort. The staff is...
Last August 20, 2016 me and my family went to the resort and paid PHP 29,500 as fee for a "day tour" for 13 pax. After a few minutes in the resort the lifeguard asked our group to get out of the pool because apparently we did not meet the proper attire for swimming. Please note that before we got...
No internet place to let you enjoy the nature of the beauty!
Nice hotel there.
NIce Spa in the forest.
YOu can hike, take a spa there.
Today based on the reviews decided to take some time off and visit this place.
It was hot summer and I was a bit worried but the moment we entered the hidden valley it was awesome
The place is well maintained and the weather even though was hot in manila inside the resort due to the dense trees it was...
My wife and I did this tour when we were here in early March 2016. As it was a Sunday and booked at the last minute, we were the only 2 people on the tour, so that was actually quite nice.
The tour guide was very friendly and helpful and gave interesting commentary both there and back.
The resort itself...
To drive out of a hot bustling city to this beautiful spot was so refreshing. The bush and and the pools were lovely and a delight to swim in. Very well maintained tracks and staff evident for safety reasons. One could spend quite a few hours here exploring the tracks and the pools, but as we were in a bus...
It was nice to get out of the city and go to hidden valley springs. There's a walk to a waterfall and then you can hang out in three different springs. I think cause it was off season there were hardly any people in there with us so it felt like a little private hideaway! Pools were nice just to...
What an amazing place! Beautiful walk to the hidden falls. Buffet lunch was good. Many memories (getting engaged 😆) would come again!
An out of the way, very quiet resort! Those who want to enjoy nature, in a safe environment, away from crowds. Has bungalows for famiies or couples to rent overnight. Eating facilities are native and nice, with music, some even on request available. Whether you are a couple who wants quiet swims together in one of the many pools, or...
We finally decided to visit the place after the devastation of a typhoon almost 2 years ago. We travelled with visiting relatives, and was indeed a hidden valley. It's nature at it's best; foliage all over, lots of trees with some century-old, and waterfalls. Amazingly designed 3 pools cascading into each pool, aside from the 2 individual pools supported by...

Fantastic tool. I am still exploring the extensive range of tasks this tool is able to be deployed on, and in all events amazed by its abilities. Even though it was rather expensive, I am still really impressed.

Buffalo Ankerite is a historic producer of 1,018,000 ounces of gold at average recovered grade of 6.51 grams per tonne (0.19 ounces per ton). A 4,000-foot deep production shaft on the property was the primary source of this production. Drilling in 2001-2002 by Placer Dome outlined a pit design between surface and 400 feet depth on the south limb of the fold. Historical work indicated additional potential on the property below the pit resource. Recent exploration by Lexam also identified a high-grade zone of gold mineralization at approximately 4,000 feet depth.
Using a total of 98,522 metres of diamond core data from 311 drill holes, the Company completed in 2013 a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate update on the project. Computed by 3D digital block modelling, the updated estimate allows for open pit design and optimization.
Buffalo Ankerite Open Pit Resource Estimate
(at cut-off grade of 0.51 gpt Au)
(The numbers may not add due to rounding)
In addition to the open pit resource, an underground resource estimate was completed for the project in 2013:

County Auditor H. Bate Bond showed Commissioners' Court Thursday several slides indicating revenue generated over the last few years, mainly through sales taxes, fees and fines. Sales tax revenue, begun midway through 1988, generated $989,000 the following year. By last year. 1994, that number had climbed steadily to just more than $2 million. The sales tax revenue is estimated to provide 14.2 percent of the 1994-95 budget income, second only to the property taxes which account for about 50%, The county auditor said all these numbers reflect the simple fact that both growth and business activity are high. "lf you go to another county this size (population)...it will not be as much as ours," he said. Fines and fees at various county County income COUNTY (41 55%) I*1' CISD (58 05%) WORD (0 39%) offices account for about 16.4% of the projected revenue. They too have shown steady increases over the last three years in most of the county offices. In 1992, county offices collected $1.7 million in fees and fines. Last year, that number was $2.4 million. 30% more than in 1992. Bond said about 60% of the fines and fees stay in the county, the rest goes to state coffers in Austin. Justice of the Peace offices collect for such items as traffic tickets, some thing most people are familiar with. All four Justice of the Peace offices showed increases since 1992. except for JP I. "That precinct underwent some redistricting and it didn't have a lot of highway in it." said Bond JP 4 showed the largest intake, at $547,573 in 1994. up from $3 '9 425 in 1993 and $315,377 in 1992 J P's 3 and 4 also accumulated more than $200,000 in fines and fees. The County Court-at-Law is a \ery "busy court" according to Bond. Many of the county's cases involving such things as divorces occur there. The collections have almost doubled in three years, from $255,174 in 1992 to $470,753 last year. The two clerk's offices. District Clerk and County Clerk, have also shown income increases. The County Clerk's office handles areas such as birth certificates, marriage licenses, and also, real estate transaction fees, which include not only standard home and land actions but those on timeshare condominiums. This office collected $462,859 last year, $375,787 in 1993 and $371,671 in 1992. Tile District Clerk's office takes care of all fines and fees associated with District Court Last year, they took in $233,788, up from $190,834 the year before. Offices such as Environmental Health collect fees for things such as septic tanks. The office took in SI58,025 last year. up from $68,869 only two years earlier. Outside of fees and fines, the County Tax Office collected $44,841,807 last year. mostly in property taxes and automobile registrations About 58% was collected for the Comal Independent School Distnct w hich the county charged $48,(XX) for the collection service. About 41% is collected for the county which also includes IO different districts such as emergency and fire districts. Another 0 39% included collections of the Water Oriented Recreation District. House fire leaves Cranes Mill family needing food, clothes, home By SUSAN FLYNT ENGLAND Staff Writer Comal County residents are being asked to come to the aid of an arca family in desperate need — the Smith family. Their home in Cranes Mill Mobile Home Estates recently burned to the ground and the family escaped with only their lives and what they could carry. Nita Smith, 40, cared for both her late husband and her brother-in-law Harold Smith. 72, both Hospice patients, said Rita Remington of Hospice. Harold Smith is still in her care. Smith has three children, Patrick Smith, C arl Breeks and Edw ard Smith Jr They attend school in the Comal Independent School District. "Their most pressing need is for housing," Remington said. The Smiths hope to find another home within the CISD so the children won't have to change schools. But the family needs everything — clothes, food, furniture, kitchen utensils, linens, and especially financial help. "The Canyon Lake Action Center is the collection point for designated donations," Remington said. To find out specific needs, you can call Patsy Reese at 899-7184.
