A Certain Magical Index (とある魔術の禁書目録 インデックス, Toaru Majutsu no Indekkusu?) is a Japanese light novel series written by Kazuma Kamachi and illustrated by Kiyotaka Haimura, which has been published by ASCII Media Works under their Dengeki Bunko imprint since April 2004. Yen Press have licensed the novels in North America. A manga adaptation by Chuya Kogino began serialization in Monthly Shōnen Gangan from May 2007. J.C.Staff produced two 24-episode anime series between 2008 and 2011. An animated film was released in February 2013. The anime adaptations are licensed in North America by Funimation.
The side-story manga series, A Certain Scientific Railgun, began serialization in Dengeki Daioh in February 2007. A second side-story manga series, A Certain Scientific Accelerator (とある科学の一方通行, Toaru Kagaku no Akuserarēta?), began serialization in Dengeki Daioh in December 2013.
Toaru Majutsu no Index is set in a city of scientifically advanced superhuman students, but in a world where magic is also real. Tōma Kamijo's right hand, the Imagine Breaker, will negate all magic, psychic, or divine powers, as well as his own luck. One day he finds a young girl hanging on his balcony railing named Index. She turns out to be a nun from the Church of England, and her mind has been implanted with the Index Librorum Prohibitorum—all the magical texts the Church has removed from circulation. His encounter with her leads him to meet others from the secret world of science and magic and an adventure with his friends where science and magic collide. Tōma's unusual power places him at the center of conflicts relating magicians and science-based Esper in Academy City. As Tōma tries to help and protect his friends, he learns the people he knows are not as they appear and begins to attract the attention of magicians and espers alike as they try to unravel the secrets of Academy City and Index.
- Touma Kamijou - A "powerless" esper who resides in Academy City. He possesses the ability to nullify esper abilities and the supernatural on his right hand, but it also seems to affect his luck as well.
- Index Prohibitorum Librorum - Also known as Index, a nun-in-training under the care of the Anglican Church. She holds the knowledge of 103,000 magical books, and was on the run from pursuers from the Anglican Church. In her attempt to escape their pursuit, she meets Touma in a chance meeting.
- Stiyl Magnus - A red-haired priest from the Anglican Church, and one of two pursuers of Index. He is an expert in fire magic with the use of runes.
- Kaori Kanzaki - A powerful Japanese magician whose abilities are focused on strengthening one's body instead of the conjuration of magic spells, and Stiyl's companion in the search for Index. She is one of twenty powerful magical figures called Saints.

There is just five weeks left until Christmas, which means there are only 24 days left until volunteers deliver toys to kids across the city.
Lana Nordlund with 630 CHED Santas Anonymous says donations are down so far this year.
"Donations are lower than previous years at this point in November," explains Nordlund. "We anticipated that because of the economy and all the things that have happened within our province this year and the face of Edmonton has changed."
Nordlund expects a spike in donations once we hit December.
"We're about 24 days away from delivery weekend and we cut off on December the 12th, so about five days before that (delivery day)," explains Nordlund. "We need those toys into the Santas depot now so we can prepare them."
She is also praying for snow, stating every time it snows they get a surge in donations.
"Right now, we have about 500 more children on our list than we had at this time last year and that could also be a variety thing, that people are applying early," explains Nordlund. "We are thinking, and knowing, the ask will be up soon."
You can drop off an unwrapped toy at boxes at shopping centres, the Santas warehouse at the Jerry Forbes Centre at 12122-68 Street or here at the Corus building at 5204 84 Street. (twd)

I hid in the branches of the tree, my heart leaping about in my chest, as if it was going to escape. I could hear the enemies' screams, and the clash of weapons as they fought with my own kin and the ally centaurs. My hands shook as I knocked an arrow on my bow. Theldia looked me in the eye from her nearby seat in another branch, a fierce excitment in her own bright violet eyes. She grinned, giving me a confident nod before scrambling further up the tree like a squirrel. I breathed in deeply, carefully making my way to the top of the large tree.
It was my first battle.
The sky opened up as I peered my head above the thick umbrella of emerald leaves, several Harpies circling like great hawks hunting for their prey. Theldia already had her eye set on a montrous one with great wings of inky black. With one smooth motion, her arrow was whistling threw the air, catching itself in the enemy's chest, the Harpie shrieking hideously, hurling through the air, it's limp body catching in the tree. She laughed victoriously, the pride of her first kill etched on her face as she looked at me. I smiled weakly back at her.
I looked around, watching both the air and the ground. A beautiful chestnut centaur fell, its crimpson blood staining the ground. I turned my gaze away from the sickening sight.
Another large Harpie entered the sky, his silver grey wings sparkling valiantly in the light. He looked about frantically, but then he spotted his fellow Harpie, tangled in the branches of a nearby tree. He let out a horrific bellow of agony, circling with extraordinary zeal. As Theldia slid another arrow into place, the furious Harpie saw us.
He was coming after us.

Dilila: What do we do now?Mature
Hades threw the vase across the room where is shattered against the wall. He turned round to face me with a look of fury on his face. "You were closer why didn't you kill her?!" Hades yelled.
"You had the knife" I whispered then ducked when he threw a chair my way. I mean I was meant to be his lover and he was throwing stuff at me!?! I didn't dare say anything though because Hades was furious and his anger was not showing any signs of calming down.
He screamed and then punched his fist through a wall. "We had her! WE HAD HER!" he yelled shoving his hands angrily through his hair.
"Look there must be something we can do" I suggested sitting down on the bed and glancing at him then away. "She may be unkillable but she's still a person"
"What do you mean?" Hades asked turning to look at me.
"Well, we could just explain why we were going to kill her" I say rising to my feet. "Tell her she was a danger and now you're the only one who can help"
"What about your brother?" Hades asked smirking.
"Leave him to me. I'll keep him out of the way" I grinned. Hades chuckled and leant down to kiss me violently. He was always rough with me but only cause I let him. I could protest but I didn't want to.
The moment Hades was asleep I began getting ready to head out. I needed to talk to my brother. As I walked down the streets I felt smug and proud. I followed my brothers aura to a corner shop.
It had been three days since the incident and I knew Serena wouldn't be awake yet. Not for a while anyway. I was going to head over when I realised for now maybe I should just watch. Come up with a plan to convince my brother I hadn't meant to do any of the things I had done.
As Evan exited the pharmacy I saw flames ripple down his arm. It was strange because it wasn't an intentional action and Evan didn't even seem worried.
Usually he would. I tried to get closer and I saw a look in his eyes. A look of two people and I realised that finally Evan was bonding with his Phoenix but also that he had no choice over the matter.
The more he was around Serena then the more he'd lose his human soul.

Finding the Pack
They had found them. Layke almost collapsed in relief. They had been looking for a long time, searching every place they came across, yet they could not find them. They had even considered calling their names, that was how desperate they were.
"Linda," Layke called softly. She couldn't hear him. No matter, they would reach them soon. They had stumbled across some tracks and followed them, and the tracks had led them here, to where the rest of the prisoners were resting.
As soon as they were close to her, Linda's head snapped up. Her old eyes were alert, and her hand instinctively went to her belt for a dagger that wasn't there. Upon seeing them, her worried frown broke into a smile, and she hobbled forward to meet them.
"You're here!" Linda said happily. "We thought you'd never find us."
"We did too," Layke said, grinning. "I thought you'd be mad at us, if truth be told."
"Why?" Linda asked.
"For making you escape with us."
"I'm still a bit angry," Linda admitted, "but I can't go back now."
"No, you can't," Layke agreed. They were interrupted by the piercing sound of an alarm horn. Lucifer's eyes widened.
"They're after us."
"Run!" Layke called, not too loudly but not too softly, either. All heads snapped up to look at him. "They know we've escaped!"
Everyone broke into a panic. Some people ran in one direction, others in another. Layke stood there, at a loss for what to do. If they ran around like this for any longer they'd surely get caught. Thankfully, Lucifer took charge.
"I want you all together, in one big pack," he said in a commanding voice. They all assembled behind him, even the ones who had initially fled were coming back. When everyone was there, Lucifer spoke again. "Now follow me. We'll have to sprint as fast as we can, so be warned."
He started running, and everyone followed him. Another alarm horn sounded, urging everyone to go faster, fleeing into the woods. Layke made his legs go as fast as they could, pumping up and down, up and down. He had no time to think, just the endless shout of; RUN! echoing in his head.
They soon started tiring, the adrenalin running out. The pack started moving slower, but Lucifer kept on running, pushing himself and therefore pushing everyone following him, too.
"Keep going! We can't let them catch us!" Lucifer yelled. Layke didn't -- couldn't reply. He just urged himself on, and on, and on. He had to persevere, he had to keep going. There was no-one following them as far as they knew, but they couldn't be sure, because all they could hear was the rush of blood in their ears and their own ragged breathing.
Finally Lucifer let them stop. They stopped by a winding stream and a small cave. They were all panting and feeling faint. Layke collapsed, exhausted, onto the ground. He forced himself to crawl to the stream and take gulps of water, even though he didn't want any. The water went down harshly, and he felt as if he was going to vomit it back up.
He didn't look up for a long time, trapped in his own world. His lungfuls of air had made him feel light-headed, and he lay there, staring off into space. Finally, he stood up slowly, wobbling slightly at the effort. His head spun, and he collapsed onto the nearest figure.
"Are you alright there?" Lucifer said, holding Layke's hand which had been clutching his arm moments before. "You look like you're going to faint."
Layke nodded slowly, not really hearing the words. At the moment he didn't care about anything but standing there and trying to regain his balance. He forced himself to breathe normally, and gradually the feeling of lightheadedness subsided.
"You should drink some water," Lucifer said.
"I … did," Layke managed to gasp.
"Good," Lucifer said. Layke managed to look up at him. How could he look so fresh and bouncy after running for so long? After leaning on Lucifer for awhile, he regained his sense of balance. Layke raised his head and looked around. Everyone was mostly in the cave by now, and a few people were kneeling by the stream having a drink.
Everyone looked so calm and relaxed. He couldn't see anyone gasping for air and on the verge of fainting, anyway. Layke felt his cheeks colour. He hadn't even been the one who was running the fastest and yet he was leaning on Lucifer, panting like he had run a marathon.
"We'll stop here for a bit," Lucifer told him. "The enemy guards don't seem to be upon us yet."
"We'll look for Waiye, won't we?" Layke asked.
"Waiye?" Lucifer's brow furrowed.
"Oh, I forgot you didn't know who Waiye was," Layke said. "She's the leader of a small group of women who are faithful to the Cause."
"What's the Cause?"
Layke hesitated, not knowing whether or not to tell him. Finally, he decided that Lucifer deserved to know. Who knows, he might even support the Cause.
"Well," Layke began, turning his head to look at the stream. "I … we think that the women of this land hold too much power." Layke risked a glance up at Lucifer, whose gaze remained impassive. He continued, determined not to be deterred. "Something needs to be done about it. The women aren't being fair to the men, and don't put it their worth of work."
There was a long stretch of silence. Layke crossed his fingers mentally, hoping that Lucifer didn't report him immediately. He shouldn't have told him, he knew it.
"I agree."

It said that level of growth was unsustainable, but it should benefit from a battle for dominance among European stock exchanges. 'Order levels which were exceptionally strong in the first half of 2001 dropped in the immediate aftermath of 11 September but have quickly recovered to previous levels,' chief executive Chris Aspinall said.
A move to decimal share prices in America had helped support business there, but it remained less healthy than European operations where market consolidation on Frankfurt, London and the Euronext exchanges is lifting orders.
Royalblue said: 'The LSE has announced a major upgrade to its network. Further developments are scheduled at Euronext and Deutsche Borse. These changes will require additional Fidessa software or changes to existing Fidessa software.'
Royalblue will also begin support for Nasdaq Europe and Oslo exchanges this year. Pre-tax profits for the year to 31 December were marred by the £2.7m loss on the sale of the Rostrvm and Helpdesk businesses to their managements last summer. That pushed group pre-tax profits down 39% to £4.2m. Group sales rose 15% to £66.2m. The dividend rises 4% to 4.8p.

MS Action Therapy Centre in Walthamstow runs solely on donations. When they approached Nimlok for help with their display system requirements, they were delighted with the response.
MS Action Therapy Centre was started in 1983 and is proud to have been running successfully ever since. Not only is the centre a registered charity that relies solely on donations (no government funding received at all) it is run by people with neurological conditions for people with neurological conditions. The aim is to improve the quality of life for all members and carers through a variety of mainstream and complimentary therapies, exercise, advice and support.
Nimlok are experts in supplying and manufacturing portable display systems, exhibition stand and event solutions. If you want to work with a team of people who are dedicated to their clients, ISO14001 accredited, easy to work with and who take pride in their work, then contact Nimlok.
Nimlok have been working with various charities since their foundation over 40 years ago and were delighted to be able to assist the MS Action Therapy with their request. A portable display system was donated to the registered charity but unfortunately it was incomplete. Dr Amanda Squires, from the charity, contacted Nimlok to ask them for the parts to make the panel system work. That way they could be used at future exhibitions that they regularly attend. She was thrilled at the answer from Client Manager Jackie Moore from Nimlok; – "Just to confirm we are going to supply, free of charge, the following items to go with the panels you have been given: Poles, Bases, Clips and Carry bags".
Nimlok support their own local charity each year so they are always keen to assist with the good works of others whenever they can.
It's encouraging to know that there is still some good being done amongst the negativity that is constantly in the news.

Switzerland have easy win vs European champs
Portugal, who won the Euros earlier this summer by beating France(aet), Wales, Croatia(aet) and Poland(pk); drawing against Iceland, Hungary and Austria. But the champions got off to a sluggish start against Switzerland, who only got to the round of sixteen. The Swiss won 2-0 at home, thanks to Breel Embolo and Ahmed Mehmedi. Arsenal player Granit Xhaka was sent off in stoppage time. Elsewhere, England won 1-0 v Slovakia, France drew 0-0 with Belarus and Bulgaria beat Luxembourg 4-3.
Wonderstar hits debut hat-trick
Marcus Rashford. The name that City defenders will be thinking about this weekend in the derby. He's scored on his debuts in the:
Europa League, Premiership, senior international football
and now a hat-trick on his U21 debut in a 6-1 annihilation of Norway. Did Big Sam make a Rash decision by omitting him from the senior squad. He has become a living legend and fan favourite for Man United and England.

... We took our gold cart out the next morning to see the sunrise over the Carribean and went to look at some small ruins at the most easterly point of Mexico, at the other end of the island.
Kat went diving to an underwater musuem, where they have ancient 10year old statues and models that have been sunken to dive around.
We spent 8 days on the island, mostly catching up on sleep and playing at the beach. A good introduction to Mexico, easing us in to the culture and food.

Isn't It Funny What Blood Can Do To You?
Aya groaned beside me. I looked up from his arm and saw he was leaning back with his eyes shut. His usual tan was lighter, as if he hadn't been in the sun for a while. His face was twisted in a mix of pain and pleasure.
"Aya?" I asked, feeling better than I had in weeks.
He stirred but didn't open his eyes. "Feeling better?" he asked. He sounded tired. No, more than tired, exhausted.
"I'm fine. But, what about you?"
"I've lost more blood than this before, sport. Don't worry about me".
He tried to stand but gave up after a while. He looked at me. His eyes were dull and glassy. He wiped some of the crimson blood from my lips and smiled. He looked at it with hunger in his eyes. I stood and walked into the kitchen to retrieve one of Tawny's "leaving presents". Aya practically tore it out of my hands when I gave it to him. I watched him guzzle down the liquid, which I must admit was a little congealed, and felt hunger start to rise in me as some of it spilled down over his chin. The colour slowly started coming back to his skin as he drank it down. He'd never looked more handsome. And the line of blood that dribbled down and dripped off his chin was all I could think about. I wiped it off with my finger and tasted it. I could already tell which blood type it was: A positive. Aya dropped the bag and what little blood was left and looked at me. I drank some of the blood but my hunger wasn't sated in the slightest. At that point we both realised what it was we were hungering for.
Within seconds our lips were crushed against each other. My arms wrapped around the back of his neck and his arms hugged my waist. I ran my hands through his hair, which was minutely longer than when I had last seen him. It was soft like cat fur. I could have stayed there forever but unfortunately I had to breathe. I disconnected to take a breath. Aya tilted his head back, his eyes closed and a look of pure bliss on his face. I trailed kisses up his neck, starting at the hollow of his throat then up and across his delicate jaw 'til I reached the spot between his ear and the end of his jaw. He shivered and moaned slightly. His reaction made me smile and I kissed him there again. He shivered again and I started heading back down his jaw. When I got close enough to his mouth we locked lips again. He raked his tongue across my teeth and curled my hair around his fingers. His hair was majorly dishevelled from where I'd been running my hands through it. Neither of us wanted to break the kiss but we knew we had to. Once again I had to breathe. Being human really sucked. We barely broke apart but Aya still had that look of bliss on his face. He lay back, taking me with him, and sighed.
"I've wanted to do that for a long time" he said breathlessly.
"Don't talk" I said, trailing kisses up his jaw.
Our lips connected again and time stopped around us.
I woke up lying on the floor with my shirt half undone. Aya was lying next to me, shirtless and with an arm around my waist. His eyes were shut and he was feigning sleep as vampires do. He had a small smile plastered on his face and it didn't take me long to guess what he was thinking about. I "woke" him by planting a kiss on his forehead. His eyes flickered open and we kissed again. But halfway through he shot away from me and pressed himself against the wall, his hand over his mouth.
"Aya, what's wrong?" I asked, sitting up.
"I shouldn't be here".
"Yesterday... I shouldn't have done that".
"What are you talking about?" I asked, starting to panic a little.
He was silent and still as a statue. I looked at his shirtless form and then my own half-shirtless form.
"We didn't...did we?" I asked.
"No but... We almost".
Now it was my turn to shoot up and rush to the other side of the room. We stood on our opposite sides of the room for what seemed like forever. Finally it was Aya who made the first move. He stepped back to where we had been sleeping and picked up his shirt.
"Aya, I... I wouldn't have minded" I said and felt my cheekes flash crimson.
"Hallie, there's... There's something I've got to tell you".
I nodded at him. I was still too embarrassed to speak. He sighed before speaking.
"I'm not allowed to love you" and then he was gone.

Latin America Backpack Equipment Essentials
Vancouver, United States
A comprehensive snapshot of the contents of my backpack after more than 16 months of travel throughout the Caribbean, Central and South America.
I look at the photo of the innards of my backpack, taken back in 2005, and reflect on how much my gear has changed, how much hasn't, and how new everything looks. I had spent excessive amounts of time researching what should go into my pack (and almost none on where I was going).
I thought I had things pretty well figured out, but sometimes all the research and preparation in the world can't make up for raw experience.
So as my backpack sits and soaks for a moment in a (now) very dirty tub of water, I invite you to see what it is that I was ultimately carrying around on my back when I left Latin America earlier this month.
Inside My Backpack…
Reference Books
A world atlas; a pocket dictionary (Spanish to English and back); and a beefy Lonely Planet guidebook (South America on a Shoestring). I cover my guidebooks to conceal what it is that I'm reading, as targets are made of out people with such things on display.
Water Protection
A rain-fly for my backpack; a light, water resistant jacket (designed for cyclists); a cheap umbrella bought in Guatemala (that's completely falling apart); and a waterproof Pelican enclosure for my digital camera (rarely used).
Bug Protection
A silk sleeping bag soaked in Permethrin; a mosquito net donated to me in Colombia, and some extra mosquito coils (burned over several hours to confuse/repel the bloodsuckers). Most any experienced traveler will tell you a mosquito net is absolutely essential backpack gear. Even if you use it once a year, in that one instance it will be invaluable.
Locks and (a sense of) Backpack Security
Four padlocks that use keys; three padlocks that use a combination; compass; mini-light; springy, vinyl-coated wire; and a Pacsafe wire mesh enclosure. My Italian buddy, Giovanni, teases me about the number and weight of locks that I carry—he's right, it's a lot—but locking mechanisms vary so much that I end up using each and every one of these items often. Locks with combinations are best left to places where you don't have to deal with them in the dark, and carrying a padlock with a long neck allows you to lock things like closets that you normally couldn't.
I've talked about the Pacsafe many times, and used it to both deter opportunistic theft and keep my pack from walking away without me.
I should add that it's wonderful it is to carry a compass and a small light attached to a keychain with you. I'm already carrying the keys to unlock my gear when I'm out walking around, so both items are always with me always. The compass is very useful for orientating to maps (when you come off a bus or out of a subway). The light is useful for finding your lock when you return to a dark dormitory room and people are sleeping. I've gone through several of both, though, as they are subjected to quite a beating on a daily basis.
Repair, Cords, and Miscellaneous Items
The sturdy bag that holds all my locks also contains picture frame wire; electrical, scotch, and duct tape (without the cardboard centers); twist-ties; strong waxy string that is good for repairs or jewelry; nylon cord for a clothesline; bottle opener; and a spoon.
An Item Not to be Forgotten
Clothespins. If you're stringing up your own clothesline, you're going to need your own supply of clothespins. They're invaluable for not only securing clothes, but for pinning things up or together in your living environment.
Bags and Towels
An orange day/beach bag (details here); yellow shawl; red bandana (that hasn't stopped turning the sink water pink when washed since the purchase over a year ago); waterproof Sea to Summit sack; micro-fiber towel; and a mini-backpack.
Using a shawl as a towel at the beach (instead of something made out of cotton) is the way to go. Not only does it weight nothing and consume little space, but is easy to wash and dries fast. Ditto goes for the micro-fiber travel towel—it's sort of a like a shammy that you'd use on a car, but for people.
I can't imagine traveling without my small Dakine backpack. Purchased at a skateboard shop in San Diego, this sturdy little bag functions as the enclosure for all my valued possession when I get on a bus or plane (removing them from my backpack for purposes of safety and theft). I lock the zippers with a padlock and use the skateboard on the front of the pack to secure a jacket (or other items) to keep my hands free.
Health and Hygiene
I carry lots of goodies inside of a small bathroom bag and a blue stuff sack, such as items for dental, eye, ear, hair, nail, and skin care; clothing repair; a bottle of powdered laundry detergent; a bottle of naproxen (Aleve); Tiger Balm; drain stopper (an essential item, most often used when washing clothes); shatterproof mirror; extra contact lenses (stored in an old first aid kit); moleskin (and other general cut/blister aid); and a small pharmacy of pills and anti-itch creams (damn biting insects).
Electrical Accessories
Spare USB cable; immersion heater (boils water); current tap (gives me a pair out outlets by screwing it between a light bulb and the socket); outlet multiplier (turns one into five); homemade extension cord; beard clippers; outlet adapters; rechargeable battery charger (AA/AAA); rechargeable batteries; and a tiny radio from Guatemala I bought for a dollar (great for the beach, when you don't want to risk something more valuable).
Palm Pilot TX with carrying case, power supply, and collapsible keyboard (this is what I use to write for this site); USB card reader and cable (used to pull photos off my digital camera and Palm Pilot memory cards without any driver/software installation); thumb drives; an iRiver MP3 player (donated by my friend Matt); headphones and extra headphones with a Y splitter, to share music; an earbud headset/microphone for use with Skype Internet calls; nine 512KB SD memory cards; padded camera carrying case; and digital camera (I've gone through a Canon SD300, SD400, and an A530 on this trip alone)—all stored inside a Sea to Summit dry sack.
Other Accessories
Passport with mini-calendar (excellent when debating or calculating time in country with a border official); quick currency converter calculator (so convenient until you adjust to the new mental math); pocket watch (discrete and sophisticated—like me!); flashlight; cases holding prescription glasses and sunglasses; pipe and tobacco; laminated postcards of Arizona and Oregon (to show locals); laminated photo of my mom (who passed away from cancer in '97); various pens and highlighters; piece of paper from a notebook with weight and volume conversions; note cards; and Monopoly cards taken from a hostel with no gameboard (fun for writing contact information on the back of—especially the cards printed in Spanish).
A pair of Diesel shoes and Reef sandals. I'm more prone to lay on a beach than trek through a jungle, and my gear matches that lifestyle. I don't carry hiking boots or camping equipment. These shoes are the middle ground for me—between nice enough to wear to an urban nightclub, yet practical enough to walk through a jungle whilst sneaking into Machu Picchu. Oh, and I love my Reef sandals, love them to death. I'm going to buy another two pair here in the U.S., in case they stop making this model.
Other clothing, not photographed here (because I'm wearing it in every snapshot for the past 16+ months), includes: One pair of cargo pants and shorts, boardshorts (swimsuit); pajama pants (even though it's hot, long pants help against the bloodsuckers); three pair of boxers; three pair of socks; three everyday button-down shirts (I don't like cotton t-shirts); a synthetic t-shirt (designated my sleep and travel shirt because it's soft, durable, and dries quickly when I sweat in it); a nice button-down shirt for special occasions; a nice polo shirt for embassy visits and government offices; a fleece pullover; and a hat (although I am currently without, having lost two sock hats and a cap sent to me from my friend in Canada).
New for Asia!
I'll be dropping or replacing some items as I prepare for my incursion into southeast Asia. Items like my barely functional umbrella have been swapped out for a nice, slim little number. Smaller items that I'm adding (or replacing) include a real compass; military-issue can opener; new keychain light; zip-ties of various sizes; a fisheye camera lens (plus other camera accessories such as a charger and batteries); a fleece sock hat (that I will try my best not to loose); a homemade security cable; and a new USB card reader that also includes a 3-port USB hub (because there are many times that a PC only has one open USB port, so I have to keep juggling my thumb drive and card reader).
New, big purchases, include a Kelty Redwing 3100 panel-loading backpack, and a Nikon P5000 digital camera. The Redwing is a full 6-liters smaller than my current pack (think of three, 2-liter bottles stacked horizontally on top of each other), a Kelty Moraine 3600, but eliminating the top-loading lifestyle will allow me to drop the Pacsafe mesh I've been using. Instead I'll be locking the zippered compartment and using the security cable I made to keep it from being carried away.
I have been a Canon loyalist my entire life, but feel recently the brand has nothing to offer me (in terms of their model lineup) that fits with my lifestyle. I've gone through three Canon's in the past year and a half—and I treat my cameras well. The recently released Nikon P5000 was recommended to me by my friend and photography mentor, Craig Strong, and after sizing one up with him, decided to invest. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
May 6th, 2007
I'm very eager to find out how the Nikon works out for you. I'm a Canon loyalist myself. While not subjected to quite the abuse you put them through, my old Canon Powershot G2 that I use for budget travels is becoming flakey - lens motor is failing and such. I think it's time to replace with something more advanced now, and with a more pocketable size. I also have a high end Canon SLR but that's only good for travels to a single city, usually on business trips.

Speaking of cameras, I thought I'd share a remark I made to someone recently about camera memory.
I carry an excessive number of memory cards so that I can shoot without fear of running out of space between opportunities to unload images — I wish I did not have these. The investment made to purchase so many of a certain type of memory card has ultimately locked me into cameras that only take this type of card.
If I was to do this all over again, with today's prices, I would invest in USB thumb drives, and no more than three memory cards. It's very easy to unload images onto a thumb (flash) drive — most any PC you're using will accommodate this. With prices they way they are today, buying thumb drives are actually cheaper than camera memory (not to mention much more versatile).
May 8th, 2007
The price point of flash memory is extremely cheap these days. I find swapping memory to be annoying, so large capacity cards are a must.
2 GB SD cards can be had for as low as $15. A 4 pack of 1GB cards is #23 on another site I know. With a little digging, I know I can find similarly priced cards with a read-only lock.
Your Nikon is SDHC compatible. I may end up donating to your cause in the form of a high cap 8GB card. You could use one card for photos and internet tools then. Just a thought, if you're interested.
May 8th, 2007
I notice that you were carriying quite a lot. Even MY backpack was not that filled.
Hope to see you in Malaysia (in a nice beach resort )

I always love finding out what other people take with them traveling. It looks like you downsized a LOT from your first bag to your new one. I have heard nothing but good things about Kelty backpacks.
Oh and some other great sandals are ones made by a company called Rainbow. I have the hemp ones and they are soo comfortable. I have had the same pair for over 2 years now, and they have pretty much become a part of me. You can usually find them at skate/surf shops.

hey craig thanks for your feedback. can you recommend any good websites to purchase one way tickets???

Great post! I'll be leaving for Argentina in november 2009 and making my way to Colombia. I'm just starting my research, as i plan on staying in colombia long term (possibly 6 months). I'm curious if you had many problems with border crosses, via bus without return trip tickets?
Again! Thanks for all the tips! I'll be sure to bring some locks with me
September 17th, 2009
None at all. When in doubt, before you cross the border, just print out a fake plane ticket:

(also don't forget to have a peek at the updated version of my pack's contents — link in the comments above.)

September 17th, 2009
Thanks Craig!
I'll def. check out the updated version of the pack's contents. As I'm already a little perplexed about how a girl can fit all her essentials in one pack! I'll manage though.
One great thing, I might add are the traveler's space bags. You can roll them up, and push out all the air.
The best part about it is they are waterproof. My friend had a horror story with luggage while in Buenos Aires. They were flying to Mendoza when a storm brewed. Apparently, the airlines just left all the luggage outside in the storm. I think I took a few days for everything to dry out.
BTW I'm traveling with US passport.

Well written blog! It seems to be a good resource on Backpacks. I found you in google while doing research on my recent page about , here: http://www.bagking.com/dakine.html I think my points are relevant In any event, I found your article very helpful and informative.

Great post, thanks!! I'm planning a trip for about 12-18 months (depending on funds) to South America in Jan '12, was just wondering about getting around- when to bus or fly given the distances?
Also, I'll need a return ticket from Brazil, but I'll be heading off to other countries in South America after that- how do I work that out?
Thanks so much!

@Cozzy: You'll need to make a fake return ticket for your Brazilian visa application.

This website has been so helpful! We are doing Central and South America for four months and it's been great to have a packing guide with pictures as well as detailed info about Carnival.
One question, what size dry sacks did you use? Anything in here you'd now leave out or change?

Mumbai, July 15 : India's main share market index provisionally fell 5.38 per cent on Tuesday to its lowest close in more than 15 months, led by financials such as ICICI bank on fears of worsening global credit turmoil.
The banking sector index was down 5.1 per cent.
ICICI, India's No. 2 lender, fell as much as 6.2 per cent to 543.65 rupees, it's lowest since August 2006, and mortgage lender Housing Development and Finance Corp dropped five per cent to 1,836 rupees.
Although Indian banks have no direct exposure to the US sub prime mortgage sector, the global financial sector turmoil impacts sentiment in the local market and raises worries of more withdrawals by foreign funds.
According to market analysts the downward trend in the market is due to the prevailing political instability in the country.
"There are a lot of factor that are contributing to this volatility. Number one is the crude oil, the crude oil has been hovering between 135 to 146,147 a barrel because of which not only the Indian market but the global market is going up and down. Number two which is totally for the Indian context is our political situation in the country. July 22nd is going to be the vote of confidence, where the current government will be sitting for the vote and there has been a lot of sea-saw. At least from the media and from what we read. There has been a lot of horse-trading, you can say. Both the parties are trying to corner MP's (Member of Parliament) whichever way they want. This is again putting a speculation in the market whether the government will sail through or not," said Ankit Ajmera, Market Analyst.
The 30-share Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) index provisionally ended down 717.74 points at 12,612.77, with all its components in the red.

Two of tnem were taken that night, and fecured in V\ eitminfier Gate-houfe ; and yeiierday the officers went in purfuit of the reit. Yeiierday a Country Farmer, charged cn oath with cnu-lly beating and maiming his wife, was brought to the New Gaol in Southward.

In 1960, the College Entrance Examination Board became an unexpected participant in the movement to desegregate education in the South. Working with its partner, Educational Testing Services, the College Board quietly integrated its Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) centers throughout the Deep South. Traveling from state to state, taking one school district and even one school at a time, two College Board staff members, both native southerners, waged "a quiet campaign of persuasion" and succeeded, establishing a roster of desegregated test centers within segregated school districts while the historic battle for civil rights raged around them. In the context of the larger struggle for equal opportunities for southern black students, their work addressed a small but critical barrier to higher education.

Carter: Two Days
It only took a moment to cast away the hands of death. Their grip had been weak, but that's how it always started. When life began to slip into the underworld, it would only be a matter of time before a demon could find their life force and feed off of it. He would know, he'd sent a number of demons to the underworlds himself. But that was the thing with having immortal enemies. They just won't die!
The shadows around him dissipated, leaving only a slight chill in their place. He knelt in the dirt, holding his hands up in prayer. That was probably one of the stranger things only a demigod could say they could do; pray to their father.
Oh Hades, god of the underworld, watcher of the dead, I call upon thy name. I have finished thine quest and sealed off the hands of the dead. The prophet will live.
All was quiet for a moment. But anyone could have seen that something was happening. The crickets weren't chirping, the insects weren't flying, the wind didn't dare blow.
No, my boy, an echoing voice thundered. If it hadn't only been in his head, the ground would have shaken. Demons approach , still chasing the scent of death that lingers in his surroundings. If he should perish before the dream can come to him, you fail.
He bit his tongue, pushing back his protests. The deal was still on, that's all that mattered. But now, it included a fight with demons. The thought was unpleasant, to say the least. One demon was hard enough to take on, even more so if you were trying to keep them from killing someone else. But more then that... I'll just have to get creative.
He couldn't sense the demons yet, which meant they were at least a day away. But if they could smell the scent of death, they had to be fairly close. Two days, tops.

Mary Tells Backers To Observe Rules
On her Mary for Mayor CDA page, Coeur d'Alene mayoral candidate Mary Souza is cautioning her followers to play within the rules re: yard signs: "We've had a number of yard signs being taken from supporter's properties. At the same time, some are accusing our campaign of putting signs where they should not be. Draw your own conclusion. Sometimes supporters on both sides can get overly zealous and resort to chicanery thinking it will help their candidate. Let's not make it a bigger deal than it is. Let's make sure our side does not engage in such tactics!"
Question: This is a word to the wise for all candidates and their followers, right?

What happens when you want a convenient solution for sharpening your pencil in readiness for your drawing or unique writing and drawing needs? Well, an excellent suggestion for you at such a point in time would be to invest in the best pencil sharpener as the ideal investment for your unique pencil sharpening needs. However, before you can invest in a pencil sharpener, it's highly important that you take the time to evaluate the pencil sharpener motor and its benefits over the conventional pencil sharpener motors that are available on the consumer market.
Pencil sharpener motor
Perhaps one of the most important aspects when choosing the ideal pencil sharpener is that you have to choose one that has sufficient power to grate through the different pencil wood material types that are available out there. In fact, some pencil motors can easily breakdown when used to sharpen hardwood pencil material such as cypress and mahogany pencils.
Another important aspect to take into consideration when choosing the ideal pencil sharpener motor is to ensure that it is as silent as it can be when it comes to operation. While most people might rate the noisy motors as powerful, the modern-day motors are not only quiet in operation, but are powerful as well. Besides that, you also want to choose a motor that uses power efficiently. If you are an art enthusiast and you wich to take you art level to the next level, then its highly important that you invest in an excellent sharpener with a robust motor.
All things considered, when it comes to selecting the ideal pencil sharpener, it's important that you choose one that is not only silent in operation but is also highly efficient as well. The added benefit is that the consumer market is packed with various brands that you can select from to suit your unique needs.

Jessica Belle
Jessica Belle [Jezabel or Jez]
Jessica has piercing deep blue eyes generally however at certain times they can fade to an almost white, grey. Her hair is dark blond and shoulder length due to an increased convenience and she is around half a foot shorter than Bea. People seem to see right through her on many occasions so looks are not too much of an importance.
She is a rather shy character aiming only to please but seeming to always do something wrong. Her fear of being hated or ignored gets the best of her and it is a very often occurrence that she will simply fade into the background and seemingly cease to exist momentarily. That is, until Bea pulls her back into the conversations. She lives inside her head, away with the fairies as her parents say.
Parents Influence:
Both her mother and her father were out of her life before she was old enough to know who they were. Her mother was deemed too mentally ill to look after a child and her father ran at the thought of a child and so she was given over to her uncle and his wife. her uncle died at his wife's hands three years ago and Janice had been abusing Jessica her whole life, a difficulty she knew to live with.
She has both a beautiful singing voice and a natural flare for writing music however she has very little faith in her talents and, believing they will never get her anywhere, rarely sings any more and only writes when she hasn't had an attack in a few days.
Supernatural Skill:
Jessica has an extremely useful ability to become invisible at any given time and, although she does not know it, is entirely in control of this power. It is most common when she is having an attack or is about to have an attack and also affects her when she is beginning to daydream or fall distant from a conversation. This ability is attached to another, the ability to force people to forget. Instantly as she becomes invisible, she is forgotten. The people around her have no awareness of her being there and no recollection of her ever truly existing. The danger of this is that, if she doesn't think to come back to reality then she never would if Bea wasn't around and able to see her. Nobody ever notices that she hasn't been around because her disappearance is forgotten once she re-enters everyone else's reality.
Additional information:
She is obviously dating Bea Knight and has been for the past two years. She kind of leans on Bea because she is the only person who is really able to get her out of her own head. On the other hand, Bea is normally the one who causes Jessica to get stuck in her own head or, alternatively, have a panic attack. She enjoys being in 'her' room more than anywhere else as her attacks are most frequent at school, she doesn't really go anywhere else and Janice rarely bothers her when she is in her room.

Best Example of Art-World Perseverance
In 1980, a group of friends opened an alternative art space in a then-rough part of town and gave it the difficult and unconventional name of Pirate: a contemporary art oasis. But the co-op's name perfectly reflected the difficult and unconventional work that has so often found a home in the space at 3659 Navajo Street. Now, more than twenty years later, the original members have mostly scattered to the four winds. The exception is Phil Bender, who has not only remained as an active Pirate member, but has also run the place and kept it going during many dry spells. In addition, Bender has presented a solo exhibit of his own work at least once a year since Pirate's founding. For last summer's Bender bender, Paris, Paris Architecture, Etc., Etc., he covered the walls with hubcaps, postcards, coasters and other found items -- playing off his longtime penchant for using objects collected in multiples and putting them together in unlikely combinations to create pieces that are greater than the sum of their parts. Truly, Bender's unwavering dedication through the years has set a fine example for other artists.

The John Kenneth Galbraith Lectureship in Public Policy is intended to bring to outstanding figures to Memorial University, whose work reflects their commitment to excellence in scholarship and public affairs. The Lectureship is an initiative of Memorial University and is one of the major events open to the general public during the academic year.
It is named in honour of John Kenneth Galbraith, the internationally-renowned economist who was awarded an honourary doctorate of letters at Memorial's 1999 fall convocation. Dr. Galbraith is known for his development of Keynesian and post-Keynesian economics, the economics of the modern large firm, as well as for his writing and his active involvement in American politics.
Normally, the John Kenneth Galbraith Lecturer will spend three to five working days at Memorial. The purpose of the lectureship is to expose faculty, students, public servants and the general public to timely and significant public issues. The lectureship is a window to the larger world of public policy, and is meant to put important and complex issues in context. The lectureship consists of three separate components:
The lectureship is held under the auspices the President , and is coordinated jointly by the Dean of Arts and by the Director of the Harris Centre of Regional Policy and Development, or their representatives.
The task of selecting the topic and the speaker are undertaken by a panel. The panel consists of persons who can authoritatively discuss (1) topics of current interest in public policy, (2) appropriate candidates for Lecturer and (3) target audiences. It consists of three ex officio members, six members of the University community, and one member appointed by the committee of the whole:
The panel meets at least once per academic year, and its mandate is to generate a short list of six possible lecturers, ranked in order of decreasing priority. This short list is generated from a call for proposals to members of the University community (faculty, staff and students). The call for proposals is developed by the panel and may include suggestions as to the type of eligible topic and lecturer, the nomination procedure and the deadline for submitting nominations.
