Axel Chaos
Axel stood on the roof of abandoned broken down house the sun was setting, Axel's students took up positions around the house however Axel could already see trouble brewing. One student by the name Izay had decided to jump the gun. Axel could see himself when this student, he only wished to prove himself, but also Izay had a sort of rivalry with another student named Fucelli. This also reminded Axel of his rivalry with Aldrest.
Axel leapt from the roof quietly and apprehended Izay with an understanding tone however, Axel's plan to deal with the blood sucking black soul fell apart has Fucelli kicked down the already loose door down. Within moments Fucelli was sliding backwards his short sword blocking his attackers punch. Before Axel could react Fucelli was sent flying towards the gnarled forest behind him. He jumped and caught Fucelli before he could get to gravely injured.
"You idiots." Axel grumbled getting a little ticked at his students misbehaviour endangering the others," Your supposed to work like a team not like selfish brats."He hissed before hitting the ground and tearing forwards towards the black soul that was now rounding on Izay who was to slow to hold the black soul off with his rather large hammer. The other two students came up behind the black soul but this black soul had an agility that Axel had only seen once before.
"Get back!" Axel yelled," This one is stronger then the ones we have fought together before!"
This black soul also was also a little different, the marking were different on its face, it strength and agility were also much stronger then normal. Axel couldn't find any other differences but that was because most of its features were hidden under its dark cloak. The Black soul shoved Izay managed to take advantage of the distraction of his teammates and slammed his hammer hard reinforced by his brown spiritual energy. The black soul made hissed violently, slashing Izay down to the ground, it spun around readying its final blow on the young student.
"I don't think so!" Axel said as an orange arc picked up the black soul off the ground and knocked the darkened soul through a tree, leaving a trail of black blood on the ground.
"That's different." Axel muttered to himself as his students gathered around him.
"Whats different Axel?" Fucelli asked him.
"Nothing." He said comfortingly," Alright Fucelli, Kael, Sarn, its your turn. Fucelli I want you to do your multiple piercing attack with spiritual bursts, while Sarn uses her chained daggers to keep the this blood sucker still. Kael once Fucelli finishes his attack your clear to use that drill weapon of yours to finish it off! Izay and I will provide back up. Now go!" Axel told his students who willingly took his orders.
Normally Axel would let them figure things out for themselves, but this black soul was too much, especially since Axel knew most of them would have fallen within the next couple blows, but this one was different. Sarn wrapped her changed daggers around the black soul and squeezed it tight around a large granite boulder, the thing began shrieking a blood curdling scream as Fucelli pierced it multiple times its flesh exploding from the pressure of the spiritual energy. Kael charged from above a brilliant tornado of red spiritual energy emanated from her drill which only spun faster each second. Even Axel himself feared a direct blow from Kael seeing that out of all his students Kael's weapon dealt the most brutal, damage if not appropriately blocked or dodged. The boulder exploded from Kael final attack throwing a huge amount of dust into the air. They jumped back cautiously waiting for the dust to settle.
"We did it!" Sarn and Kael said happily, while the two boys clenched their fist desiring more power.
Once the dust settled a puddle of black blood was all that appeared to be left of their foe.
"Lets go." Izay said in a disappointed tone.
"Hang on, Black souls don't die or simply become a puddle of dark blood they usually reside in the body, once they are defeated they are simply just energiless to attack further." Axel warned.
As their enemy began ooze from the ground taking shape, it bubbled into the shape of a human showing its sharp teeth, as it howled, before leaping from the ground high into the air.
"Leave this to me." Axel said jumping after it," Split" He commanded as Maelstrom fell apart into four different blades, and shot towards the dark soul stabbing it in four different places, this time taking it down for sure this time
Waiting for Axel and his students at the academy was a pleasant surprise.
"Haven't seen you out of that office of yours in a while." Axel said Jovially towards Aldrest," Keep that up and your gonna lose hard next time we fight. " Axel smiled.
"I don't know Axel, I still won last time." Aldrest defended himself, " I guess the mission was a success?"
"Ya, however these two need to learn to stop trying to show off, and let their emotions get the better of them. As well as do some proper team work instead of trying to out do each other all the time. If I wasn't there things would have been bad."
Fucelli, and Izay already started to look guilty but looked at each other furiously. Aldrest smiled looking at Axel and laughed.
"Anyways I need to fill out the mission report and we'll talk later, there is a few things I would like to tell you in private conversation." Axel said taking his students to the academy building.
After he had said by to his group Axel retired to his room, where desperately tried to fill out the report, but his mind kept shooting off back to the battle. That Black soul, he never had seen anything like it, not only that but ut reminded him of his meeting or dream with his dad.
"They will come for you."
It wasn't new information that they were strange black souls seeming to pop out of the woodwork, but Axel never thought he would have to deal with one, on a mission with his students.

Dressed the part, five of us were on our way to 'where it was all at'. Only for once, we were 20 years ahead of fashion. You see, we were original Seventies chicks. Average age 30 plus VAT, we'd already seen the movie, read the book and got the tie-dye T-shirt.
Still, it was Saturday night and we all fancied a really good 'bop'. But where, amongst the clubs offering Garage-House-Garden-Rubbish, do you find such a thing?
The Carwash seemed ideal. A club where we could hear records recognisable as music, and put together outfits recognisable as trendy. 'Are you sure these gold medallions aren't too over the top?' ventured Sue, 34, looking like Engelbert Humperdink's love-child. 'They look fab,' we lied.
As a dare, each of us had trawled the depths of our wardrobes, resurfacing with items of hideous merit. The coveted title of 'Dancing Queen' went to Joanne's unbeatable effort: shiny orange stretch-pants and a pink sequinned boob-tube.
'This is what it's all about,' she sighed, adjusting her sparkly Abba-style headband to above her eyebrows for the fourth time. Instead of ravers at the Carwash, we looked like raiders from a car-boot sale.
Hoisted onto platform soles, we strutted down the street, not so much 'Staying Alive' as staying upright. Unfortunately, by the time we'd shuffled to the Carwash, our Saturday night fever was somewhat dampened by a massive queue. 'Wasn't like this in the good old days,' muttered Lauren, irritated at the doorman's discrimination against the uncool.
Secretly panicking none of us would get in, I marched up to the front of the queue and confronted the doorman: 'Now look here young man, we're original Seventies chicks and I think we deserve some VIP respect, don't you?' No. He didn't. Relegated to the back of the queue, we stood around with the rest of the peasants, where the aroma of afghan coats brought back memories of first snogs.
Hurt that our authenticity carried no weight, I grabbed the bouncer by the arm, and tried another tactic. 'My varicose veins are killing me,' I groaned. Realising that leaving us outside was more image-damaging than letting us in, the bouncer capitulated.
Although the flashing disco atmosphere was the same, the young clubbers had interpreted the Seventies look with Nineties designer flair and were extremely sophisticated. Their things matched, for a start. The only thing I'd matched was my cheesecloth shirt to my face.
Suddenly, the decade's hit record 'Le Freak' pounded out. Surfing a tidal wave of unexpected nostalgia, we raced en masse to the dance-floor, jumped onto a large go-go podium, and freaked-out Seventies style. It was brilliant fun. As we bumped and gyrated to the rhythm, admiring crowds of young men gathered at our feet. They looked entranced. We danced wilder.
And then we realised: it wasn't admiration, it was curiosity. To the pack of staring teenagers, we were les freaks. As the record changed, our image remained unimproved by the fact we were also the only clubbers doing John Travolta impersonations.
Joanne and I found ourselves partnered by a couple of Italian students. These days, no one asks you to dance. They just sidle up. 'You should hang a notice round your necks saying: 'A dance with the real McCoy - 50p',' sniggered Suzy.
Two records later, my stamina failed. Mustering what was left of my dignity, I made the excuse I was off to powder my nose. The students thought I meant drugs.
'I wouldn't like to be young these days. Look at all the posing,' said Sue. It was true. In our day, it seemed you simply got up there and danced with sheer joy. Glancing at the self-conscious youngsters around us, you could see how slick advertising had taken its toll.
They were having to grapple with new social fears such as: 'Am I swigging from the right designer beer?' and 'Does it matter I'm wearing last season's trainers?' Their faces wore an 'I'm bored, amuse me' expression, whilst fidgeting, nervous fingers betrayed the truth. What the poor things needed was a spell in Gary Glitter's gang.
My thoughts were shattered when I recognised the 18-year-old au pair of a business acquaintance. I shrunk into the corner. 'Hi, it's me, Ulla,' she said cheerfully. At the same time, the Italian students reappeared on the scene. 'How old are you and your girl friends?' asked one, brutally.
Ah, dear Ulla. Putting a friendly arm around her, I innocently answered: 'If you take our average age, it's about 27'.
Luckily, 'Boogie Nights' interrupted the conversation. 'Have you ever danced 'The Bump' little boy?' I asked, leading one of the students back up on stage. He adored the rhythmic moves. 'What a crazy dance. Your Bumps, it's - how do you say it? Sexy, no?' The child was getting a little too fresh. With one sharp, experienced hip bounce, I sent him flying through the air, and into oblivion.
Not long after, our own party started breaking up. Literally. Lauren complained of a headache: 'Do you think we could ask them to turn the music down?' Then Joanne, grooving to 'Another One Bites the Dust' chose to illustrate the lyrics to all and sundry when her back went.
Suzy, whose eyes couldn't take the smoke, wanted to go elsewhere for a nightcap of hot chocolate. Finally, Sue 'I'll go back and watch the handbags', was found slumped on a sofa, watching a video screen. Mesmerised by reruns of Starsky and Hutch, her eyes had Paul Michael Glaser-ed over. Time to go. Anyway, we didn't want to be around when the house lights came on, did we?
Worth doing again? Sorry, not unless we're members of BUPA. On the other hand, if you do see us there tonight - don't blame us - blame it on the boogie.
Carwash: Saturdays at Le Scandale, 54 Berwick Street, London W1. 10pm-3.30am, pounds 8.00. Telephone 071-355 1946.

Plastic-ware in the tub is all well and good until it comes time to pack up that leftover meatloaf. Instead, we recommend Fleet, a set of five stackable boats that satisfy every child's insatiable desire to pour water on everything. They're designed with wide decks for scooping and drain holes for a rain effect (it gets stormy on the high seas). So go full steam ahead...just watch out for soap icebergs.
CLEANING & CARE: Rinse thoroughly after each use and place in a location where it can dry completely. Clean with a mild detergent if needed.

Ha! Fair questions, for real.Georgina wrote:Uppermost questions in my mind...
1. Guys who have lived here long enough know who the operator, allies, and affiliated businesses are of the biggest forum are (were?) Is this a reincarnation of same?
2. Was that other nasty forum sold and why?
3. I welcome a little frankness. The purpose of this forum is, I presume, like that of the other one - to make money. Nothing wrong with that. I welcome profitable enterprises. If they serve a social and educational purpose as well, so much the better. But spare me the altruist statements.
4. Is there a core group of expat businessmen who are 'fluffing' this forum with brief/uninformative replies to create traffic for purposes of boosting numbers to present to potential advertisers? Nothing wrong with silence instead of no practical comment. I mean from the journalistic rather than commercial perspective.
5. Will investigative, critical or otherwise informative articles or regular contributors be *paid* somehow for contributions other than editorial?
6. What will be the editorial slant of this forum be? I find it interesting to see overt slants to the big forum (anti-American, pro-drugs, anti-prostitution) and a witty magazine (very anti-American, pro-prostitution) versus an NGO-sponsored newspaper (pro-American, anti-drug, anti-prostitution, anti-ruling party).
2) I'm not 100% certain what you're asking here. I can assure you we had no business affiliations AT ALL from any forum (or anywhere for that matter) when we started CEO. All we brought with us from the other K440 are genuine friends and strangers who were just as excited to have a new discussion forum dedicated to Cambodia (and the region).
So, no reincarnation.
2) Yes, it was up for sale about a month after we launched CEO. The old owner was/is unhappy (to say the least, LoL) about us starting a new forum. I can't really answer that for him, obviously.
3) Reasonable assumption, but it's actually wrong. The most logical way I can show this is the fact that OD and I were among the most prolific posters on K440 (I think he had over 12,000 posts and I had over 20,000), and all of those posts were for free and we had no businesses to even try to promote during that time.
We post because we enjoy it. Always have. We are both very social creatures so just like being part of a fun and interesting forum. If we didn't do it for fun, why would we have posted over there for free and with no business to promote? We honestly just do it for fun! Ourselves and many others wanted a change, so we made it happen! So far, so good!
And yes, we obviously have ads, which generate $$, but that's just silly not to! But it's not the "reason" behind it at all.
I would say running an expat forum for money is about as silly of an idea as buying a hostess bar for the reason of making money, LoL. Yeah, it might happen, but to go into it for that reason is silly. I'm sure any financial adviser worth his weight in MSG would tell you that.
I'm just glad people like CEO and feel good about being members here! We put in a LOT more time to run CEO than you probably think, and it is nice to know people appreciate it.
4) In short, NO. We definitely have people that mention their businesses or have their sites in their sigs, but we allow and encourage that. They are all related to Cambodia and I've yet to see any of them just spamming our forum with "ads" like you mention.
It's not like the Dragon and I secretly own a bar and plug it every chance we get, and I haven't seen ANYONE else here do that either.
So no, nobody is on here "fluffing" threads or adding nonsense posts to make this place look busier than we are.
Out of curiosity, is there any threads/posts that you are suspicious of? Don't worry, you have freedom of speech here, so we welcome you pointing something out. Unlike the other forum, if a restaurant/bar/hotel/business is an advertiser here we don't grant them immunity from criticism or block their competitors from posting here.
The most I do is alert a business owner that I'm friends with if I see a post slagging them off so they can respond. I also did that on Khmer440, and I do that on Twitter too. Surely that's fair?
5) Ha! If someone writes a review/story about their business and we paid them for writing it, we would let our members know.
There is no hanky panky like that going.
6) Again, I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. We have no political affiliations here at all. We try to tolerate discussions about anything and everything, even if we don't agree or condone them.
I was kind of shocked a few times, as we've had a few random people seem to ask that we censor some topics or discussions on here. People complaining about having too much freedom is a hard concept for me to grasp.
If someone doesn't want to read about or discuss certain topics, don't click on the thread.
We think that's fair.
I'm actually glad to hear you ask these questions so bluntly. You're skeptical, and I think that's a very good thing. I honestly wish people were more skeptical when they sign up on forums and thought about these things before they become members.
Several members here have voiced their random concerns publicly, and we don't shy away from answering them.
I think we've all got a good thing going here on CEO. We take feedback from all members here and try to improve the place with their feedback.
We have no chips on our shoulder and don't run this place because we're on some sort of power trip. We look after all our members privacy. Period. Nobody needs to feel that we need to like them or that they need to be or friends in order for us to do our duties as responsible admin and treat them fairly.
I know that sounds a little PRish, but it's the truth, LoL. All the points you raised are important when being an active member of a forum, so glad you asked.
And if I didn't answer anything you asked, feel free to specify.

Good News!
Guess what! I just found out last week that I'm now eligible to become a Washington Redskins season ticket holder!!! Oh Happy Day!!! How long have I dreamed of joining the throngs and cheering the B&G on to the playoffs! But that's not all! If I invest a slightly larger amount, I can upgrade to a seat with an unobstructed view! I even got a nifty little photo of Bruce Allen and Mike Shanahan asking me if I was "in". What a silly question. Who wouldn't be in???? After all, if I was at the game, I could even evaluate the players during the game to see if they could be in the NFL, just like Coach Shanny does! I can see in person the vaunted Kyle Shanahan "South Coast" offense that's taking the league by storm! I can see for myself the dreaded "3-4" defense that is causing opposing teams to tremble with fear. I can watch the team go through a pre-game workout that's so tough, that guys get blown up even before the game starts! Oh, and the special events! It's hard to imagine that Bruce Allen, a guy busy making personnel moves, can find the time to put together those Alumni Spectaculars and Homecoming events. Am I in? What kind of question is that? While the rest of the league is wasting their time trying to develop young talent, we'll be sporting our tried and true veterans, just like they were that old, comfy sweatshirt that your wife is begging you to get rid of. Speed? Who needs it? Talent? Who needs it? I've got two brand new HD TV screens in the stadium. And I'm sure parking at FEDEX Field is a breeze.
Am I in? What kind of question is that?
Are you?

France's player of the year was driven away by a Lyon staff member from the Alpine ski resort of Tignes where Lyon are preparing for their bid to win a seventh consecutive Ligue 1 title.
Reports in the French press suggest Chelsea have lodged an 18.5million euros bid (£12.5million) for the 27-year-old, who was a member of France's World Cup final team last summer.
Last week, Malouda revealed he wanted to join Chelsea.Reuse content

Joey Harrington, the former first-round draft, finds himself back on the unemployment line.
Tne New Orleans Saints released Harrington Wednesday, just five days after signing him. The Saints were the third team in two years to cut loose the former No. 3 overall pick of the 2002 draft.
He spent four seasons with the Detroit Lions, most of them as the starter, before being dealt to the Miami Dolphins for a draft pick in May, 2006. The Dolphins turned him loose after making 11 starts in 2006 and the Atlanta Falcons signed him in April, 2007. He started 10 games for the Falcons last season. He was released by the team March 5 and re-signed six days later. Then released again on August 31.
The Saints signed him last Friday to be their third-string quarterback, but an injury to tight end Jeremy Shockey created the need for a roster spot and Harrington find himself available once again.
Nate Davis is a reporter, blogger and editor who's been at USA TODAY since 2000. He has covered the NFL since 2005. No, he did not play quarterback for Ball State. Davis' succession of our esteemed colleague Sean Leahy at The Huddle is considered a Brady-for-Bledsoe swap by most "insiders."More about Nate

The PooledConnectionFactory provides a pool of connections and sessions so that the client side applications can operate in a more efficient manner by not opening and closing connections and sessions repeatedly. The PooledConnectionFactory is intended to be used on the client side for sending and receiving messages. But do not wrap it in a singleton. That will defeat the purpose of PooledConnectionFactory. There is an example of using the PooledConnectionFactory available here: http://activemq.apache.org/spring-support.html Also note the links at the bottom of that page under the More Information header. The resources listed there provide some pretty good information regarding ActiveMQ and Spring.

Excellent write up by Sai Laks
My first trek!
Going for a trek before i turn 30 was one of the things on my bucket list and i finally got an opportunity to do.. I was naturally excited to experience my first trek hence had a sleepless night the day before to make sure that i dint miss the bus to nagala... I got on board at guindy with Divya who was supposed to get on the ride later but got in the vehicle which was earlier, we waited for shiva and madhan at guindy for quite sometime.. With formal introductions we moved from one pick up point to the other and continued our journey to nagala... On entering the protected forest area and getting the first glimpse of the hill which we were supposed to trek was so awesome i juz sat and admired the view of the hill for quite sometime ignoring all the comotion which was happening around me.. We started our entourage into the wilderness from the northern face of the hill at around 9 am with "the hulk" Muthu leading our way and vishal the organiser cheering, rather than threatening us to walk faster..
As we entered the forest we were treated with a spectacular stream were we quenched our thirst with mineral rich, unadulterated water. As we entered into deeper jungle, by mid-day, we encountered two pristine water falls.. We had a dip at each of them.. U can feel all ur body pains ,which u acquired on ur 3 hr trek, wash downstream with each drop of water falling on ur body.. It was a tremendous feeling...
At the second water fall we not only had our share of fun but also much needed lunch.. From bread to chappathi and chips we had a various varieties for our lunch.. The power lunch demanded a power nap and we took one... What followed the power nap is unexplainable..
We had to climb through boulders which were thrice or four times our size with jz our hands and feet.. i never thought i could do such stuff in my life, ever.. But i did, yes with few hiccups, i did.. We were joined by another group of trekkers.. Being my first trek i chose the path which was less risky but people like muthu, jack, hema, divya et al had other ideas.. Being experienced trekkers they took a more risky paths and moved forward.. I had minor cramps on my way up the boulders but was determined to climb as i cant afford to be left alone...
We reached our campsite right after the sunset and started preparing for dinner... Bensh and jaweed took the responsiblity of cooking and other guys helped them with cutting and setting up the fire.. All i did was, though i am feeling guilty of it, to find a flat rock, lay down and rest.. I can feel pain in all my muscles starting from my toes to neck... There was so much happening around me but i was blissfully unaware of it..
At around 8 the aroma of hot food disturbed my sleep and i got up had my dinner... Never ever in my life i had craved for food as i had craved that night at nagala.. That was the best tomato rice i had in my life, not only for the taste but also to quench my hunger... After dinner i went back to my slumber again which was interuppted by few occasional noices. I was not able to decipher the source of the noices though.. But whenever i got up from my sleep i made sure to watch the sky and saw a roof made of thousands interspersed between leaves and branches.. It was one hell of a view which i will never forget... Next day after finishing our morning rituals and breakfast we moved from our camping site towards the hill top.. We were warned abt lack of water for the next few hours pf our trek.. We made sure we filled our tummies and bottles with water and started our trek to the eastern face of nagala, our exit from wilderness.. That was one treacherous trek.. We walked,crawled, inched towards our destination, the magic pool with scouring sun as our company sucking every bit of life outta us with each passing second... On our way we had the best views possible of nagala hills, its central peak and the lush greenery around us.. We posed for group pics and jaweed was nice enough to click the pics of each and everyone... The next two hours of our trek, i would like to call it "fight for survival".
With water sources running dry we were subjected to immense pressure both physically and mentally to survive the onslaught of the sun... We pounced on whatever we thought had some water content in it.. After 4 hours of waterless trek we reached the stream.. Man! Everybody made a sigh of relief and felt "yappa pozhachomda sami"... We heartily quenched our thirst filled our bottles with water, rested for 10 minutes and continued our journey.. At around 2pm we reached the magic pool.. Boy it was really a magical feeling.. I felt i was in a mystical place which i only saw in movies... The pool was deep and was fed by a waterfall which was two to three storeys high.. The rocks surrounding the pool provided much needed shade.. There were pavilions on the sides of the pool on which we were able to rest.. We had the bonus of fish pedicure at the pool.. It was awesome experience and all of it for free.. We had time the time of our life at the pool.. By 4pm we started moving towards the eastern exit of nagala.. On the way out we posed for group pics, selifes and stuff.. We had jolly banter and on our way back started picking nonperishables which were littered all over the pristine forest, thereby upholding our CTC spirit.. As we neared the end of our journey, on looking back at the trek i felt, to trek u not only need a fit body but also a fitter mind.. A trek throws many challenges at you but its upto to u to take up the challenge.. The urge for survival is one of the most powerful feelings which has driven the growth of various species including us.. With advent of technologies our thirst for survival has come down as we seek comfort as our first priority.. To keep ur thirst for survival alive take up trekking u will not repent or regret it.. Hope i will join the group for another trek in the near future...
Amazing write up by Swathi Kannan
After registering for the trek, I check my mail every now and then to be selected . Luckily I was selected since few souls has dropped out. I had a million of questions going through my mind from then. IS IT POSSIBLE FOR YOU ? IS IT SAFE ? You don't know anyone in this group , ARE YOU REALLY GOING.. ? In spite of all the mind wars I moved on and got Ready. My first contact was devika who called and confirmed my presence. I was unable to sleep due to the excitement. Felt like my first time picnic in my schooldays. I set alarm at 2.30 and to my surprise I woke up at the first ring . Usually my alarm goes into dismiss modes or Snooze only. :D
Getting ready I came to Nathans café and called Muruga (BAHUBALI :P ) koyembedu incharge at 4.25 A.M . Actually by Vishals mail we have to be there by 4.40 A.M Sharp –but the bus came by 5.15 A.M, ha ha ha ha ha I recommend participants to come On time – Vishal :P. When I climbed on board the bus was full of strangers.. I started my journey in with full excitement.. we got introduced slowly, Saswathi , dhana , devika and it went on… On the way we had breakfast at the UNKNOWN TIFFIN SHOP. Idlies and Hot Hot sambhar , firing hot chutney , Poori and vada was devoured by our team :D Then we proceed further , through the bumping roads we reached the foot hill, (The murukku meesai driver anna drove splendidly ). On the way muthu was showing the videos of the past trekking and my hear stared racing and felt much more excited. We parked the van and got ready for the expedition. Started walking …… walking……. And walking through the barren lands even though it was around 8.30 only the sun showed no mercy and was hot so early. Walking so long I can hear my own hear beats and blood rushing through my palms.. Am I having an heart attack was the only thing going on my mind. Going back in not an option.. Finally we reached the Entrance of the forest .. Had a team meet up and some instructions from MUTHU.. We entered into the blissful forest , serene and calm she welcomed us with shades!! Finally some shade.. :O we came across our first source of water and you should have seen our faces… LOL !!! Awwww so happy to see the stream.. J After few clicks and filling the water bottles we started venturing again…
In the forest there is no Mercy.. Boy or Girl, strong or weak doesn't matter, If u fall buckle up and walk again, follow the trail, be with your team , KEEP MOVING.. the motivation and support by vishal was amazing that kept us going. Not a single person was left behind. Even if we walked slowly someone would be with us to keep pushing you to be in upfront. And yet again another stream.. We rested for a while.. Signed our forms and started again.. Once you are deep in the forest the rocks, roots , branches and veins are your best friends, you could trust them . Climbing rocks is not a big deal if you need water. :P . Walking along the stream was our first waterfall… Dhivya took us (Non Swimmers) to the water fall and we had an amazing experience.. The force of the water fall could not match the Balinese or Thai massages people are spending for... After drying a bit we climbed up the hill. Eventhough we didn't want to leave the fall our organizers promised us to take to the second waterfall.. And yet again we started climbing the rocks... There she was waiting for us… A beautiful water fall with the view amongst the mountains… Non Swimmers definitely should bring Swimming tubes to enjoy the beauty … We had our lunch, chappatis , jams, breads, kakda.. Doesn't matter who you are ... if you have food are the next persons best friend :P . These foods would be laying around in your home untouched , but here.. it will not last for seconds in your hand.. Eat anything and everything was our teams motto.. :D . I had an amazing rejuvenating massage in the waterfalls viewing the beauty of the mountains. After drying up , we had the TANG WAR !!!! Dunno how many people even know that we had tang in the team.. :D
And for a sudden moment there were few unknown people jumping before us.. (Rudhra, Ravi , I learned their names later only ) . After a while we then started with our trekking. There is no thinking.. .just keep moving… All the teams gathered and started moving forward… 20 's became 40'S. Before we even get to the team members name we came across new people again and became friendly. They got our backs and we got their back.. That was an amazing team I should mention. So climbing up and down.. left and right somewhere in the middle we reached an end where Muthu was waiting for us with a rope high on the waterfalls around 10 feet high I guess.. we were supposed to climb on that.. WHAT… WE ARE SUPPOST TO CLIM ON THAT :o . Our Bahubali AKA Muruga lifted everyone up ..
Paaah his eyes were popping out literally when he lifted our Photographer and few other people.. (We ladies moved up swiftly than the guys who made the fuss :D ( Kudos to all the girls )As we reached up and yet again another big rock.. Ah.. we climbed again… I will not forget jack and Rudhra , cornering me out for a Biriyani L.
The team was with high spirit and we kept going forward… Stop… that is where our Life savior hot injured.. Falling from that high.. God I would have made a big mess.. she was all calm in spite of the pain. A big shock for all of us.. Then we were asked to take a different route and walked again. We are going forward in the trail just don't know where . Trusting our organizers and our other life savior Hema we kept going On and On.. When it started to begin dark we climbed into the thorn forest… Can you believe me THORN FOREST .
Yes we didn't leave that place also and made our marks there. And down the hill in the dark space we camped out for the night.. Everyone gathered , found the place, Started cooking.. And that's how it went. Thanks to jawed, Hema, Ravi and all the souls who prepared a delicious dinner for us.. And again a dinner war for the food.. it never ends until the gundans get emptied… Post Dinner we all slept hearing the streams and rustling trees singling lullaby to us.. ALL FLAT. Later early morning we all had a wake up call by hema , rudra, singaram and the so called FOX at 4.00 A.M :D . Unable to sleep further I had an amazing peace out session near the stream. Imagine.. the sound of the stream, dawning sunlight.. breezy air.. what else is needed more for an amazing day ahead?
Once the sunlight stared at the rocks everyone was up, and then finished our morning duties - giving back the manure what the nature gave us: D. And then we stared again with the Cofee, tea and breakfast session. Here we had to witness the POPCORN FIGHT .. Later we started again.. beside the streams.. over the hills.. I literally dunno how many hills we climbed. It was all worth it till we had the sight of the view point. Up and down, in and out we walked till our energyy went to minus. Takes rest then move our rear.. No water… and No sign of water ….
Lemon, tomato, salt, kaccha candy anything you give us we will swallow. we walked and walked. They told us we will soon Reach MAGIC POOL.. awaiting it we all moved .. ATLAST a stream.. we quenched out thirst from the long awaited source of water. Then we headed toward the magic pool… The Much awaited place.. there she was guarded by two high sides of the hills. On seeing it our teams jumped into it literally from an hight of around 20-30 feet. By stepping down carefully we had a dip and a long break in the waterfall.. Pedicure, swimming classes, underwater selfies, live crazy diving all could be seen in one spot. Even though we had two people injured (Rudhra and Siva ). Nothing could be compared to the mind relaxation at such place. We then proceeded with our journey which was almost at the end..
In a few hours we are going to end the trek.. we also started cleaning up the hill on the way back. Which is also our job as CTC. We collected as much garbage as we could. Had our final break in the stream. Our last pic near the lake and came out of the forest. We had to get back to our normal life once again. We were team, best friends, warriors, trekkers and what not.
This is what I would call as an trekking . it changed my views about people and myself.. I joined the trek since I needed a break but in the end I emerged as a strong person. We had not only explored the Nagala but we explored ourselves. Starting the trek I regert joining it , but in the end I would I have definitely regretted it I had not joined J Proud to be in this team.
Last but not least I would like to thank everyone of you who is reading this for being there and made this an mind boggling experience for me..
Crisp Write up by Rajeev Srisai
The first thing that came to my mind after reading the mail that said, I was selected for going on a trek was,"Can I wake up at 3 AM in the morning?!". On the first day, to my surprise, I woke up before the alarm rang and I was enthusiastic about the trek. My only other trek was at Tada (after my experiences at Nagulapuram, I think what I did at Tada is a morning walk :P). This was my first activity with a group which is completely new to me (my Tamil is also pathetic. I learned more Tamil in this 2 day trek than in my 6 years at IIT).
This trek not only gave me an exhilarating experience in the forest but also a lot to reminisce and things to think about. The long trek through the forest, rope climbing through a 10 foot waterfall (Though it was mostly Muruga(our Baahubali :P) lifting me and Muthu pulling me, I will take credit for the 2 feet I pulled my self through :P), camping in the forest at night, drinking water directly from the streams, making our own fire, cooking our own food, sleeping on the ground, listening to water flow at night, staring at the night sky with the stars twinkling through the gaps in the trees, 5 hour trek without water, eating tomato and salt to stay hydrated, swimming in the ponds, diving into them, sliding into them... All these are unforgettable experiences.
Many new faces and yet we became close in a day. We helped each other,enjoyed others' company, talked about a lot of things (Including serious things like, how much trash are we generating even if we are very vigilant about usage of dustbins), hummed a few tunes and finally emerged as successful trekkers. I felt like a warrior who conquered something, well we all conquered something. We conquered ourselves.
Looking forward for many such treks...
Thank you guys for helping me through the trek and making an unforgettable beautiful memory.
Nice article by Saswati Roy
Hi Warriors,At the very first day when i saw one mail came for Nagala Trek i got excited okay I have to go this time i missed so many chances this is the time to grab the chance. So I registered though it was easy + moderate ( Vishal could mention as Moderate itself) ..I took the dare chance with the 30 % fitness level of mine. I was keep on following whether any mail is there in my inbox one day i got mail and that time i asked so many of my CTC friends how to prepare for trek along with foods and bags everyone suggested well.
I was in the trail mail so everyone was discussing like some trip plan so days were passing and I was telling to my friends finally going for trek and everyone was asking " this summer how u will go ??"" I just answered no worries we are anyways not staying in cold Place .
First day : Finally the trek day came I woke up in the Morning, and reached perfect time in the Spot we took Van and finally people were gathering new faces new adventure superb feeling. In the Breakfast time had nice experience with Telugu Chilly Chatni with Idli and Soupy Sambar .. Tastes good .... when food count started gave my idli count certainly I heard one person counting 13 Idli OMG " Thats Shyam " .. Ok .Then we were travelling through our destination i was watching the hills okay this needs to climb up.

Ok .Then we were travelling through our destination i was watching the hills okay this needs to climb up.
Finally we entered into the forest beauty when I saw the stream wow it was like I am inside the nature , though I am from North East stream beauties are available but Nagala Stream Beauty was awesome for me. We were moving here and there by following the Stream and reached to First pool where The Waterfall was beating like Teacher was beating but nice feel though. then again climb up and reach to that awesome pool, Hema My life Savior in the water and we had covered our lunch time over there. ( Sorry i dint mention anyone Coal worker anyone, though I told Vishal as a Liar and Muruga as Monkey). We had Tang Bottle fight over there and started the moderate way by climbing the Gigantic rocks for me. I was watching , how Bahubali was lifting people OMG finally i also did with my leg cramp. and it was dark when we reach to our camp site it was full of stones and sound of stream and some insect sound also there. Jaweed started cooking he and Hema cooked very nice Biriyani. We were gossiping though no campfire happen everyone was tired and then sleeping time wow what a view Tree leaves are moving and small stars are playing hide and seek and sound of water felt like We should be here whenever we need to relax peace of mind.
Second Day : Wake up in the morning Birds were chirping ,,,,( oops my mistake in the middle also I woke up Hema shouted once because of Fat rat .. ) able to watch the sun it was wow experience had so many photo session after breakfast finally got ready for next day challenge .. in the middle we were taking rest and we sang song , pics had loads of fun ... and started climbing for the top of hill keep that on mind that no water will be available I didn't know where Vishal were taking us .. people were asking when the water will be there Vishal kept on saying withing 1 and half hour later you will get that hours finally finished after multiply of one and half hour or more than that. everyone was so thirst so that were started to eat Tomato and Lemon .. finally somewhere i heard the sound of stream and we got source of water (May be this call survival ).. and then that awesome pool I wish i could jump from top (Don't know swimming )... and then the Fish pedicure had so much fun water made us fresh alive and then again we stared walking , photo shoot and I was thinking how i missed this great opportunity till now .... and by walk we reached to our van ... People are so energetic , they danced even really hats off . ... and dinner time had Roti, Scrambled egg Chicken but nothing can beat that night dinner spot with starlight beauty .. I enjoyed the entire trek though it was my first trek I wanna make it memorable for my lifetime. Thank you once again to all my friends over there , Organizer specially and Photographers ....Stay well everyone and Keep smiling

The day I came to know CTC (Chennai Trekking Club) on Oct 2014. My expectation for trekking increased but not sure how to start, when to start & I have waited for my day till June 2015 for an entry to CTC by CCC6 (Chennai Coastal Cleanup Edition 6) in Akkarai. Then as next step moved to Cesaw, Anithinai, Chennai Red Knights, Chennai Trail Marathon, etc. But not into the core CTC activities like Trekking, Cycling, Swimming, Running.Then time turned on Apr 15th 2016(Saturday) . Got a mail from Vishal stating "Worker's Day Trek- Beat The Heat Edition 2- Apr 30-May 01" mind moved to lets rock this chance. Tried to register from Mobile on spot but my bad luck not able to register via of mobile so sent mail to Vishal stating I want to be in this event & will register on Monday .He told to register on Monday & update him. Parallel informed my friends also to register for this trek …. But bad luck none register or not turned up for this trek.While discussing with my sister @ home.. I have registered for Nagalapuram trek.. When is your exams getting over.. Can you join with me.. Then my sister also interested so Tuesday morning once reached office gave a shock by seeing a mail from Vishal registration closed & again sent him mail for her registration also but no response from him. So I don't have any other choice then calling Vishal & block one slot for my sister. Then received a confirmation mail from Vishal on Apr 25th with big list of preparation mail in top he mentioned to read this full mail..
" Guys and Girls, Please fully read this mail "
Then we had mail transactions on this trekking preparation like food, packing, eating, etc.Next day Vishal sent mail of participation number list to all stating myself & Sai to call them for confirmation on this trek. So both split the contact & started calling them .. I toke last 11 members including the organizer like Muthu & Vishal… When I called Muthu for confirmation with feeling of aada organizer ki call panni confirmation kekura ya devika. :) … Then Apr 30 th 12 AM – no sleep till 12.30 Am all packing went for me & my sister till 3.15 Am before we start from our home with my brother.First time in my time reached the spot on time by 3.55 Am @ Tidel Park meet Jaweed our Cooking master. Introduced to him & again confirmation call went for other Tidel park, Madhya kailash, Guindy members . Meanwhile Saswathi & Shyam came .. Then waited for Van to pick us to nagala till 4.30 Am …After van came & picked us to route way like anna university, Guindy, Ashok Pillar, CMBT.In that time all got introduced like Swathi, Dhanamadhavan, Anand, Sai, Rajeev, Sathya Narayana, Bensh, Raghu ram, Raghu, etc.Even few old members like Hema, Divya, Vishal, Muthu, Jack. Then next crowd – Ruthira & his friends( came in other vehicle).
By 7.30 reached nagalapuram & had yummy idly , hot sambar & spicy chatni.After breakfast went near to our spot (heavenly nagala mountain). Primary checking went by Vishal to split the common foods & other items to maintain balanced weight for all new buddies & expect warriors.Then we started our walk from village to farm land where our first photo session went up & Vishal, Muthu discussed about the trek activities how to go & what to do ,etc. Photography Jaweed very exciting to take snap in tis place as after a while we won't have energy to give poss.... But the truth came later ...Went into the forest by 9.30. Saw the 1st falls / water body by 10. Spent 10 mins there & again started walking to reach the fall ASAP.In middle I use to call Muthu, Muthu to find the route as I walked slow compared to Muthu, Divya, few more. Then Pavi, Pavi for confirming my sister with me on the same way. :')It's looks like easy trek as we go ... Saw 1st pool & jumped into it like monkey & water level till neck only so we gave nice poss in tat pool & spent half an hour as we need to reach other pools as well ...Vishal use to say don't have anything @ ur hand ... But still I have my nose piece, bottle, etc.. Then reached 2nd pool but we didn't spent time there as we need to enjoy in 3rd pool & have our lunch there...
After 2 nd pool felt like interesting to climb tat 4 feet rock... Some how Vishal & Jack helped to climb tat rock....Here we saw the big & awesome 3rd pool... We need to use swimming tube as its 20 feet high as they said..Had our lunch & went inside the pool ... Around tat pool walkable space there so you can enjoy near t falls & in pool as well..Vishal announced our break time till 3 PM ... All Started eating our food like chapathi, bread, with tomato kolambu, Jam, butter. Brought by myself, Muruga, Saswathi, etc.Our level of interaction increased with Shyam, Hema, Vishal, Swathi, Jack, Saswathi, Jaweed, Muruga, etc.Slept for half an hour & again jumped in pool with tube .. Without knowing how to move from tat place.....After 3pm our real trek started... Climbed up from 3rd pool ... After a stage we felt the real trek ... Have to climb up more than 8 feet with rope in falls water (lol - imagine like Ravanan Vikram, Aiswarya).... Many unable to climb tat rock ... So here the real hero's entry (Muruga - Bahubali, Muthu & Jack - support in climbing after t lift of Bahubali)....
One by one everyone climbed or lifted by our heroes ...Then Ruthira team also joined in this spot with whole team .. So our team size increased to 36 members.After this everyone feeling of easy trek moved to moderate trek or easy +++ trek ...With team work we moved on & on from that destination to camping site ...By 7 we reached the camping site ...Our organizer allocated places for girls then cooking started by Hema, Ben,Jaweed, Dhana, etc.By 8.30 called us for dinner ... Menu - rice with takkali kolambu, ready to mix sambar, vattha kolambu, briyani, etc...Then we slept with stars & minmini puchi brightness.. Waited for next day with lite leg pain (applied pain balm)..By 4 annoying noise by Hema as something came ... But we didn't find anything as routed... Then by 6 am waked by birds song... By 8 am others got up & had tea, coffee, pop corn, bread, black tea, etc... Cleaned the vessels & few poss there as fresh day starts....Then started by 9.30 from Camping site to mountain top view. While moving from tat place benny distributed the remaining tomatoes to every members.. Reason behind this distribution we didn't know on tat time... Once reached end of falls Vishal alerted us to take water in bottles & have water ... Noting till 3 PM no water available nu... So we filled our bottles with water & started walking to top hill... Started walking from there to top view taken lot of poss & started down to next mountain... By this time our water in bottle got over... Every one asking for water, water....With hot Sun our energy started to reduce in jet speed.... But that time tomatoes saved our next 2 hrs travel without water ... Thanks for Ben to give t tomatoes...
After 3 reached the East side nagalapuram falls .... Which thought us t value of water...Then went to magic pool spent nice time .. By tis time I learnt how to swim in pool with tube (cycling mode)..... :)Here another group also joined & with us ... Few swimming specialist showcased the skills .... That motivated us to learn swimming....After pool, cleaned the East side to plastic free nature.Spent some time in last pool & taken few more poss... By 7 came out of nice place....
In this trek highlight,

Former Fox News host Gretchen Carlson has warned employees they should think twice about reporting sexual harassment to HR
Change is a normal part of life which enables us to grow and develop, says one medical practitioner
White notes that managing work-from-home workers "is not terribly different to managing other employees" – in that the managers are still responsible for their team's risk and safety management. "We take that very seriously and we have policies to support it. Employees working from home complete OHS checklists of their workspace if they have a formal work-from-home arrangement, and we have an OHS team to support leaders through the process. If it's a whole team, as we've had in some of our business where employees only work from home, then we take it to another level and go out and do site inspections and make sure everything is ergonomically set up and all the right technology is in place. For the ad-hoc arrangement employees complete the checklist and must provide photographs of their workspace."
Why has the company invested in this ability to work flexibly? A number of reasons, but chief among them is that it acts as a "differentiator" in the market. White says Suncorp views it as a "key attraction and retention tool" which helps to tap into the most talented people from the widest possible pool.
"We particularly want to ensure we're including people who for whatever reason don't want to work a full-time working week. We want to attract that talent irrespective of what their circumstances are."
Last year, when the flexible work initiative was trialled in the property claims department, it allowed people to be hired on a permanent part-time basis to work around peak operational times and also allowed people to work from home. These were employees such as a former financial planner who wasn't able to achieve flexible hours in his previous career, near retirees who wished to reduce hours and live in sea change locations, and even an Olympian training for London.
"What was really interesting about that trial was that department achieved one of the highest engagement scores in the whole of commercial insurance last year, and also high customer service scores. From there we've rolled it out more broadly," White explains.
There was another, unexpected benefit: business continuity. When the January 2011 floods decimated Brisbane, the Suncorp Milton office was also flooded, but the work-from-home team was able to continue providing service, and the flexible hours allowed the team to boost worker hours to cover the spike in claims – a massive boon for panicked customers.
"The technology allows people to log straight onto the server, hook into the telecommunications and call customers and manage claims – a great help in times of crises," White says.
It seems the flexible work initiative is also paying off in terms of employee engagement. White says their latest annual engagement survey revealed that 72% of Suncorp employees feel the company does support them to have work-life balance, which is well above the global financial services average.
"It's something we work very hard on. We are a financial services organisation and there are pressures on us, as there are other financial services organisations, but we try to ensure our employees have that work-life balance," White says.

RBNZ: rate hike on the horizon
On Thursday the New Zealand dollar showed a strong recovery versus the US dollar as the Reserve Bank of New Zealand sounded quite hawkish. It promised to leave the cash rate at a record low of 2.5% until the end of 2013, but noted that a tightening would likely have to come at some point.
ANZ: We still expect the rate hike in the early 2014. The precise date is somewhat secondary with the real issue being at what pace and regularity the OCR ends up being lifted.
ASB Bank: There was a lot more emphasis on the potential inflation spillover from construction costs and housing market. We still expect the RBNZ to raise rates in March 2014.
If the analysts's predictions come true, New Zealand could be the first developed nation to begin tightening interest rates.

Bengaluru, Jan 29: Have the police cracked the Church Street Blast case? The arrest of a man by the name Alemzeb Afridi has revealed that he had allegedly planted the low intensity bomb at Church Street Bengaluru in which one person was killed.
It may be recalled that the National Investigating Agency had put out a video in which the suspect was seen walking towards Church Street with a bag (Video: Is this the man who bombed Church Street, Bengaluru?).
Afridi who goes by the alias Rafiq was picked up from his home near Parapana Agrahara in Bengaluru last week. While he was picked up for his alleged links with an ISIS module, the police during investigations found that his profile matched with the one visible in the CCTV footage.
The police claim that he has confessed to his crime. NIA officials when contacted said that the investigations are on. We will however question him in connection with the Church Street blasts as well, the officer added. Further it was also found that he had allegedly played a part in the July 2008 blasts that took place at Bengaluru.
Rafiq had been living in Bengaluru for three years and was working as a mechanic. The police say that he was under the scanner of the Intelligence Bureau and it was only when he had made an attempt to flee from the country with his wife did they decide on apprehending him.
During his questioning he is alleged to have confessed to planting the bomb outside a restaurant on Church Street. He also said that he had prepared the bomb by himself.
When asked if there were any other accomplices, he said that there was another man. The police are now looking out for this man who allegedly helped Afridi in carrying out the Church Street blasts.

Gatland, who is in New Zealand recuperating from a fall, told a function in Hamilton late on Wednesday that he was poised to ink a deal with the Lions for the tour, which will take place from June 1 to July 6.
"We still haven't signed anything yet but it's very close, and if I do take the position I'll be seconded to the Lions for 10 months," he was quoted as saying by Fairfax Media.
Gatland, who guided Wales to a Grand Slam this year, said he would return to Britain on Sunday and expected an announcement on the Lions' coaching role to be made on September 4.
The Lions, featuring the best players from England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland, visit Australia once every 12 years, with the Wallabies winning the last series Down Under in 2001 by two Tests to one.
The 10-match 2013 tour begins with a clash against the Barbarians in Hong Kong, before moving to Australia, where there will be Tests against the Wallabies in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.
Gatland said he would relish the opportunity to participate in an "old-style tour", which includes matches against provincial teams as well as high-profile Tests.
"It's a great chance to mould players from four different countries together in such a short period," he said. "I think we get them for about a week before we go on tour, and it's a great experience. It's difficult to do."
Gatland said that if appointed, he expected to be given permission to be involved in Wales's build-up to a one-off Test against New Zealand at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium on November 24 this year.
However, he said he would not coach Wales for Tests at the same venue against Argentina (November 10) and Samoa (November 16) and would also sit out the country's Six Nations campaign next year.

I dont know why but I prefer #111111 for black. I read somewhere that #111111 is better than #000000. What do you prefer?
I try not to use straight black, so I use #111 or #222, usually.
Can you explain me why we should use #111?
Shorthand of #111111;
And straight black isn't nice.
Hard to say which one looks best if we don't have a design to look at. I don't use #000 very often though. And I do know that some people find it hard to read white text on a completely black background.
I like a little flavor in my black so most of the time I'll use a #111 or #222, but straight black #000 has its place as well it's all dependent on the look you're trying to achieve.
Agreed – I try not to use straight black normally #111 or #222 – reason text looks better…
I use #222, black can suck your eyeballs out (:
i like all in range from #000 – #333
Black is black

I cannot claim to know everything about the sport of soccer but I think I have a pretty good understanding of the basic concepts and rules of the game. Soccer superstar David Beckham, on the other hand, prolly knows the ins and outs of the game better than most … and last night, during gameplay, he got really REALLY upset about a call made by a game referee. As you can see in the photos below, Becks got rootin' tootin' MAD … so made that he tugged on his shorts like a little boy throwing a temper tantrum … all of this in front of a stadium full of spectators, including his 3 young sons. It was quite comical. Check it out below and try not to laugh.
He's the epitome of cool, a gentleman on the pitch and an exemplary ambassador off it, but David Beckham lost his cool tonight. And it must've been justified, as the 36-year-old sporting hero blew a gasket in front of his three young sons. It was a big night for them, as Brooklyn, 12 , nine-year-old Romeo and Cruz, six , got to be mascots for the match. They joined a cavalcade of other children, distinguished not by starry or brattish behaviour but merely by their number 23, Beckham shirts. It was a great night for their father, too, as he set up both goals that secured another victory for LA Galaxy at the Home Depot stadium, where they are unbeaten. Chad Barrett tied the score in the 59th minute following a pass into the box by Beckham. Galaxy then went ahead in the 72nd minute courtesy of an own-goal from the opposition, Real Salt Lake City, which originated from one of Beckham's trademark free kicks. But it wasn't before the England legend exchanged sharp words with Real's manager, Jason Kreis. Goalkeeper Nick Rimando of Real Salt Lake joined the fracas, before it was dispersed. But then, no-one can doubt Beckham's passion for the beautiful game.
These photos are PRICELESS! I mean, the pointing photo is funny but the tempter tantrum photos? THE BEST EVER! I can totally understand how someone might lose their cool in the heat of the moment … so I can't really blame Becks for the outburst. After all, if he didn't flip his lid like this, we wouldn't have these amazing photos to enjoy. LOL!

I was absolutely satisfied with the way the personnel at Lodge on the desert treated my husband and I during the process of and the day of our wedding. LeeAnn Perry-Walker, the wedding coordinator, was excellent to work with. She would promptly respond to emails, she was professional and always sensitive to our wishes and needs. Everyone was easy to work with and if there were any questions the personnel were always attentive and there to answer questions.
The food at our wedding was extraordinary. As simple as the choice for meals sounded, the chicken and mash potates (sic) we had for our guests was fantastic!
… Lodge on the Desert is a beautiful and enchanting venue to hold a wedding and any type of social event. I will highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a venue to host an event to chose the Lodge.
We chose Lodge on the Desert because we liked the setting and the Arizona-imbued ambiance. What we didn't foresee was how incredible the Lodge's experience would be for our guests and our memories. People loved the food…the space was the perfect mix of outdoor and indoor appeal, and the staff was responsive and pleasant. But the thing we heard the most from all of our guests was how enjoyable it was to stay at the Lodge.
We had our rehearsal dinner at Lodge on the Desert and it was amazing. We loved the dinner. The lawn in the middle of the hotel was perfect for this size of party and everyone loved the food. Half of our guests stayed at the Lodge and everyone loved it.
Lodge on the Desert was the absolute perfect venue to host our wedding, and we couldn't have been happier to have found them and have them with us on our special day! From our wedding coordinator who made the day go off perfect, to the chef who created perfect meals for every one of our guests (they all RAVED about the food and how wonderful it was!), to the bar and wait staff that were super personable and totally amazing, without this team, our wedding wouldn't have been complete.
Lodge on the Desert was tremendous, worked with us, offered suggestions, and made the boutique hotel a perfect weekend for our 100 guests…Probably the most important thing about The Lodge is that they made us feel like family. Everybody from the general manager to the maids went out of their way to make every guest feel special. The Lodge was the perfect place for a wedding.
My now wife and I were just married at The Lodge. 100 friends and family stayed with us for 4-5 days as we vacationed and relaxed in Tucson. I cannot say enough great things about the Lodge and more importantly, the people who helped make our wedding celebration the best week of our lives…everybody was genuinely excited for us and went out of their way to make our week spectacular.

Information for Parents/Guardians
Q: My student was involved in an incident. What happens next?
A: It depends on their involvement. The first part of the process is to have a fact finding meeting with either a Residence Hall Director or the Director of Student Conduct, depending on the location and/or severity of the incident. At this meeting, it is determined the person's involvement in the incident. This can occur before or after the student receives a charge letter.
When a student is charged with a violation, they have the option to accept responsibility for the charge(s). If the student chooses to do this, they waive their right to a hearing and an appeal.
If the student wishes to dispute the charge(s), they would need to contact the Office of Student Conduct. During the academic year, the student would have the option to have their case heard in front of the University Judicial Board or an Administrative Board. (During winter break and summer, the student only has the choice of an Administrative Board) See here for more details on the hearing process.
Q: Can the student appeal the Judicial Board's decision if they've been through a hearing?
A: Yes. The student can make one appeal to the President within 5 days of receipt of their finding letter. The student can appeal on two grounds: that there was a procedural due process error or that there was evidence that was not entered at the hearing that would significantly change the outcome of the hearing. The President's decision is final and the case is not subject to further administrative review.
Helpful resources
College is a time when students grow, both mentally and personally. Through the maturation process, students test values that at times can be converse to the ones that were instilled through childhood. While there may be behavior that is befitting of this transitive stage in life, parents/guardians should be keen to look out for major changes in moods, behavior, etc.
If you see something in your student that does not seem right, you should seek help. Our campus has many resources: our Counseling Center can provide assistance both in conversation as well as in sharing helping resources. Residence Life and Campus Life can also be helpful in discussing the many opportunities your student has to be involved in the campus. The Office of Enrollment & Student Services is also another great resource for general questions.

text: I am sharing a great table from Emeals for calculating your daily caloric intake. This is a general guideline to use to make sure that you aren't consuming too many or too few calories in a day. Remember, you must EAT to be fit, just make sure it's REAL food! Avoid sugar and anything processed/refined. The chart below gives estimates for the total number of calories you need each day. If you only do light physical activity associated with normal daily life, like cooking and walking to the mailbox, then choose the "not active" calorie range. "Somewhat active" means that you spend about 30 minutes per day walking quickly or some other form of exercise, and "very active" means that you spend 40 minutes or more exercising every day.
