wikiHow to Make Pear Baby Food
Pears are an excellent 1st food starter because it helps with reflux and baby constipation[1].
- 1 or 2 medium pears
- a drop or two of lemon juice
1Peel the skin off of the pear. The peel is recommended to take off for small infants, but because the skin is easily digestible, this is optional to do.
2Cut the pear into quarters and de-seed the pears.
3Place pieces in a blender or food processor to puree with a few drops of lemon juice.
4Serve immediately or store in freezer.

- Adding lemon juice makes the browning process slow down, just like with bananas.
- Use puree pears in a day of making or store it in the freezer up to a month. Thaw it out in the refrigerator overnight.
- Because pears brown fast, you'll need to work fast.
- Some recipes call for sugar. Ask your baby's pediatrician for more information and standards about the baby's diet.
- You can cook the pears by any method, like steaming, to get a more tender and soft texture. Cooking fruits are recommended for younger babies who start on foods early.

But for others they are a menace, causing traffic chaos and snarl-ups. And the controversy looks set to continue with plans to introduce tough rules to license and train rickshaw drivers.
Many rickshaw bosses have welcomed the proposals from Transport for London to regulate the industry.
They say it will mean they will finally be taken seriously and ensure strict guidelines on the vehicles and their drivers.
But taxi drivers - the main opponents of rickshaws - say it is not enough as they are unfair competition and should be banned.
Under the proposed new licensing regime, drivers will have to register for training and undergo criminal records checks. The TfL rules will also ban them from blocking narrow-side streets and allow traffic wardens to ticket illegally parked rickshaws.
Graeme Rivett, co-founder of London Pedicabs, described the current situation as "ludicrous".
"We want to be taken seriously so we welcome regulation with open arms," he said. "A lot of people are telling us what we can't do, but regulation will tell us what we can do. We want ranks and we want to ensure everyone is insured and has an MoT.
"At the moment there's nothing to stop anyone buying a rickshaw and setting up. We want to eliminate the cowboy element."
Chris Smallwood, trustee of Bugbugs, London's biggest operator, welcomed the new rules in theory but feared they were a back-door attempt to drive them out of business. "We have been trying to get regulated for five years. But their plans sound like a no-win situation for us," he said.
"They want to keep us out of bus lanes and reclassify us as motor vehicles and charge fees. They will try and make it impossible for us to continue." But taxi drivers, who lost a High Court bid to outlaw the rickshaws, claimed the TfL plan was unworkable.
"Rickshaws are driven by transient people who are not interested in being licensed," said Steve McNamara of the Licensed Taxi Drivers' Association. "It is never going to work. The only option is to ban them.
"The reason I don't rob and rape you in my cab is because I love my licence. It's my career. But if you threaten to take away a rickshaw driver's licence he will just get a job in McDonald's."
He claimed rickshaws were dangerous and "the biggest con in London".

On this blogs, I would talk about old games that everyone used to play but now they don't anymore. And everyone supported the idea. So here I am, with the first episode of Nostalgia Moments of Gaming. First of all, and before revealing which game I'm going to talk about, I'm going to present to you the structure of this Nostalgia blogs. Prepare for a huge blog.
Quick specification of the game - In this section, I will tell you the name of the game, the genre, when it was released, etc.
Gameplay - Self-explanatory.
Graphics - I will tell you if they are good/bad.
My experience with game - I will tell you how much I enjoyed the game and I will talk about some stories about it.
Why people don't play it anymore - The reasons that contributed for the decreasing number of people playing the game.
That's all you need to know. And the episode number 1 of Nostalgia Moments of Gaming will be about....
Who doesn't remembers Tibia? Tibia is a free medieval MMORPG (one of the oldest of its genre) and it was released in January 1997. It was created by CipSoft and this game revolutionized not only the MMORPGs but also all different kinds of video games.
The gameplay
On Tibia you have to advance your level while training to improve Skills, hunting monsters using weapons or magic, gather treasures and do some quests (that reward you a good amount of XP and money). You start your adventure in a little island called Rookgaard. There, you will learn how to play Tibia. The monsters and creatures in there aren't very strong. Your main goal when in Rookgaard is to reach level 8 so you can leave to the mainland of Tibia and choose a vacation. You have 4 different vacations to choose from: Knight, Paladin, Sorcerer and Druid.
You also have runes in Tibia. A rune is essentially a magic spell, stored in the rune. When you use a rune, no Mana is consumed, but the rune is destroyed in the process. Some runes require you to be at a certain level and at a certain magic level to use them. Magic Level is a skill. The higher it is, the more damage you will do when casting offensive spells. If using healing spells, the healing points will also be higher. To raise your magic level you have to cast spells and use mana.
Let's analyze the vacation system. Each vacation has their own advantages and disadvantages. In my opinion, the vacation system is kind of unbalanced. I think that Paladins are fucking overpowered when compared to the others. But fortunately, that's only at lower levels (between level 8 and 20).
Knights - They focus on melee fighting. They have to evolve the following skills: Club Fighting, Sword Fighting, Axe Fighting and Shielding. Out of the first 3, it is recommended to choose only one of them. If you choose Club fighting, you will have a good attack, but a weak defense. If you choose Axe fighting, you will have a strong defense but a weaker attack. The Sword Fighting is between the 2. Shielding is recommended for all vacations, but Knights should focus more on it because they're main purpose while hunting in groups is to block the creatures while the Sorcerers, Druids and Paladins attack from a distance. The higher your Shielding is, the more damage you will absorb from enemy attacks.
Advantages of the Knights - Fastest advancement in Melee skills, they can carry more items, largest amount of Health Points (Hitpoints or HP).
Disadvantages of the Knights - Slowest Mana regeneration, they have the smallest amount of Mana points, slowest advancement on Magic Level, cannot make/use many different kinds of spells and runes.
Paladins - My favorite vacation and the most fun to train. You have to be a bit patient though. They focus on distance fighting. They have to evolve the following skills: Distance Fighting, Shielding and Magic Level. Paladins can use Spears, Bow and Arrows and Crossbow and Bolts. Each weapon have their own advantages and disadvantages.
Bow and Arrow - You cannot use a shield while using bow and arrow, so you have to keep distance to the enemy, otherwise you will take lots of damage. The arrows, compared with the bolts, have a higher chance of hitting the target, but they don't do as much damage as the bolts. The Bow also has less range than the Crossbow. The Bow and the Arrows carry less than the Xbow and Bolts.
Crossbow and Bolt - Like bow and arrow, you cannot use a shield while using the Xbow and the Bolts. the bolts, compared with the arrows, have a smaller chance of hitting the target, but they do much more damage. The Xbow has more range than the Bow. Anyway, the Xbow and the Bolts are heavier and more expensive than the Bow and the Arrows.
Spear - You can use a shield while using the spears. They have less range than the Xbow and Bow. The difference between the Spears and the Bow/Bolt is that they come back to your hand after you use them. But this only happens if they haven't been broken while attacking the enemy. The chance of breaking is of 3.075%.
With this said, you should use Bow and arrow/Crossbow and Bolt if you are fighting creatures that fight at a distance. You should use Spear and Shield if you are fighting creatures that use melee attacks.
Paladins should increase their Magic Level so they can create Enchanted Spears (they have more range and do more damage than ordinary Spears. They also have a smaller chance of breaking)
Advantages of the being a Paladin - Fastest advancement in Distance skills, only vacation able to conjure ammunition with magic, more mana than knights, faster mana regeneration than knights, faster advancement in Magic Level than Knights, can use stronger and heavier sets, more capacity and hitpoints than mages.
Disadvantages of being a Paladin - Less capacity than knights, less mana than Mages, less hitpoints than knights, slower hitpoint regeneration than knights, slower mana regeneration than mages, they have to be constantly spending LOTS of money on ammunition.
Sorcerers - These guys are the masters of offensive and aggressive magic. They have to evolve the following skills: Magic Level and Shielding. Sorcerers use spells and Wands.
There are Fire, Death and Energy Wands. The disadvantage of using a Wand is that some creatures might be immune to the kind of damage that they inflict (for example, Demons are immune to fire damage, so using a Fire Wand on them is useless). Some Wands require a certain level to use them (for example, Dragonbreath Wand requires level 13 before using it). A Sorcerer should always carry a wand though, they can't rely only on spells. Each time you use a spell, you have to wait some time before you can use another one (depending on the spell you use, the cooldown is different). There is no cooldown for using a wand, and like the spells, their magic always hit the target (sometimes, paladins can miss their arrows/bows/bolts and knights can miss their attacks with sword/axe/mace)
Sorcerers, along with Druids, have little carrying capacity. Because of this, they should use hats, capes/robes that are very light instead of armor. With this said, they have very little defense. But it compensates with the fact that Sorcerers hit really hard, ordinary armor cannot protect from magic and like I said before, they never miss the attacks. Another thing that contributes to their small defense is that they only win 5 HP after they level up, but they gain 30 Mana points after leveling up to compensate.
Another important thing to refer is that, like the Druids, Sorcerers can summon creatures to aid them in combat. They can use the summoned creature to block the enemies and keep their distance from the target.
Benefits of being a Sorcerer - Fastest advancement in Magic Level, fastest mana regeneration, largest amount of mana, can make many different kinds of runes, can use a wide variety of runes, it's the only vacation able to use and make Sudden Death runes (the most powerful rune in the game, kills the targets in 1-2 hits), they can earn lots of money by selling runes.
Drawbacks of being a Sorcerer - Slowest Hitpoint regeneration, smallest amount of hitpoints, slowest advancement in Shielding and melee skills, smallest amount of capacity, cannot make healing runes, they have to be constantly eating to regenerate Mana and they have to spend lots of money in Mana potions.
Druids - They are masters of healing and nature. They have to evolve the following skills: Magic Level and Shielding. Druids use Spells and Rods.
There are Death, Earth and Ice Rods. Rods are pretty much the same as Wands, the only difference is the type of damage that they inflict. The advantages and disadvantages of the Rods are the same as the Wand's.
Druids and Sorcerers and pretty much the same. Except for the kind of magic that they use. While Sorcerers use Fire and Energy, leaving destruction wherever they go, Druids call upon Nature to defeat their enemies. They use Earth and Ice spells. Druids can use very powerful runes/spells like Avalanche and Thunderstorm. Lots of enemies are weak to Ice damage, this is the most important benefit of being a Druid. But lots of enemies are immune/strong to Earth damage, this is one of primary disadvantages of being a Druid.
Druids are masters of healing. Everyone wants a Druid in their team to hunt down the most powerful creatures of Tibia. And guess what? You can make money for that. And also evolve your Magic Level. You can charge money by the amount of time and potions/food spent with your "costumer". And by being constantly healing your partner/costumer, you are evolving your Magic Level. Druid is my second favorite vacation. It's very fun to play with one and very rewarding in the end of a hunting session seeing people praising you for healing and supporting them.
Advantages of being a Druid - Same as Sorcerers, you can make all kinds of runes except for Sudden Death's, can use all different kinds of runes except for sudden death's, only vacation that can make healing runes, Druids can enchant weapons and sell them, they can make even more money than Sorcerers by making runes (because Druids can make more runes than Sorcerers).
Disadvantages of being a Druid - Same as Sorcerers, can't use/make Sudden Death runes, offensive spells cost more mana than they do to Sorcerers.
There are Guilds in Tibia. They strengthens one's relations with others in the world. There are many reasons to join a guild. You can always have some friends to hunt, you can earn money/items by helping/cooperating with the guild, etc. But beware: Sometimes, there may be guild wars, and if you are part of one of the guilds that are involved in that conflict, the leaders may oblige you to enter the war. That means that there is a high risk of dying.
On Tibia, there many worlds to choose from. There are 3 different types of worlds: Optional PvP, Open PvP and Hardcore PvP. On Optional PvP, players cannot attack other players, except if both sides agree. On Open PvP, players may attack other players, but it is restricted (Skull System, click on it to see what it is*). On Hardcore PvP worlds, players may attack other players, with no restrictions. There are even rewards for doing so. Also, there are no safe zones** in this types of worlds.
*I did not wrote the Skull System in there because that way, the blog would become too big and it would be even more tiresome to read it.
** Safe zones are areas where you cannot be attacked by creatures/players, but you can't also attack them. Hitpoints and Mana DO NOT regenerate in this areas.
The graphics
When someone speaks about Tibia, the first thing that comes to my mind are they very simple 2D graphics. That is what defines and makes Tibia special. CipSoft didn't wanted to upgrade the graphics to 3D because they wanted to keep the simpleness of this game. And I have to say that it was a good option. Tibia is not Tibia without the 2D graphics.
My experience with the game
I first played Tibia at my cousin's house when I was 5 years old. I had my first account when I was 7. And I must tell you, this game changed my life. This game was an important component of my childhood. This game made me love RPGs and also taught me how important teamwork is to take down our most strong obstacles and achieve our goals. Unfortunately, my account was deleted because I didn't log on for too long. I lost a level 38 Knight, a level 42 Paladin, a level 21 Sorcerer and a level 25 Druid.
After I completed 1st grade and learnt how to read (I didn't knew how to speak English, but in Tibia, to speak with NPCs, you only need to know simple words like "hi", "trade", "bye", etc), my cousin asked me if I wanted to create an account on Tibia so I could play with him. I said yes. I already knew how to play the game, because he taught how to play it when I was 5. He had a Paladin and he was part of a guild. And I had to wait until level 8 to join him on the mainland. It didn't took long though. I choose my vacation, Knight, and choose the city of Thais (it was were my cousin and his guild were living). When I arrived in there, I was amazed by the amount of players that were in there and by the size of the city. NOTHING compared with Rookgaard. A place full of life, everyone speaking with each other, and something that I was afraid of... Players fighting with each others. I was in an Open PvP world. My cousin said not to worry about it, because as I long as I didn't pissed them off, they wouldn't attack me. And he told me that if anyone would try to attack/kill me to call me so he and his guild could hunt down the one that did that.
He showed me the way to the bank. I could store my money and items safely in there. After I stored my money and stuff in there, he showed me the best places to hunt at my level. He also told me if I found someone at a higher level than me and if that someone told me to leave, then I should do it immediately or else I would die.
After some days, I got my character to level 13. I was happy hunting some trolls and then, some douchebag at the same level as me started attacking me by no apparent reason. He was also a Knight. I thought to myself: This is going to be easy. I almost owned him, but then, out of nowhere, a friend of that douchebag appears. He was also a Knight, but at level 16. My cousin wasn't online, and I didn't knew the usernames of his friends of the guild. They blocked me in a corner and I was stuck. Needless to say, I died. I lost skills, and I went from level 13 to 12. I also lost some money and some loot from the trolls. I told them that they were going to regret it. And they did. When my cousin logged on, I told him what happened. He used the spell "Find Person" (exiva "para") to find the guys that killed me. I went with him and as a powerful Paladin, he killed the two in a matter of seconds. He shared the loot with me and we went to the bank, happy and with the sweet feeling of revenge.
1 week later... I was already level 18. Everything was peaceful in the city of Thais (I was admired by the level of peacefulness, no players killing each other, everyone in harmony, trading, etc). I got out of the bank for my daily hunting session, when I saw some player yelling: "They are coming! The girls from Carlin! They are coming!". I was like: "Girls? From Carlin?". It was when I remembered. Thais and Carlin are rivals. And "girls" because Carlin is ruled by women. It was when the higher players of Thais stopped their chitchat, their trading... It was when I realized that there was a war. A TRUE War. Thais vs Carlin.
Someone said: "We need Druids and Knights". It was when I went to the battlefield. As a Knight, I had to go to the frontlines of the battle with my shield to block the enemies while the Druids were behind me doing what they do best: healing. There were some players at level 200+, but there were also some players at level 20. I could take the damage from those, but if a level 200 came close to me, then I would have to run. My shield couldn't block those attacks. And I had to do so. I ran out of potions, and a lot of people were dying. I ran to the bank, and I finally was in a safe area.
I waited.. and waited... and waited. Finally, a guy from the guild of my cousin (which was a Druid), told me that the war was over. Thais won! The girls retreated back to Carlin. He healed me (I was in a safe zone, my HP wouldn't regenerate and I didn't had any healing potions). I asked him what would happen if Carlin won. He told me that if Carlin won, they would be constantly killing every Thaian and they would prevent them from getting out of the town to hunt. I didn't knew if that was true or false, but I didn't care much about that. I thanked him for healing me and logged off.
Why people don't play it anymore
The primary reason for people abandoning Tibia was when the first 3D graphics MMORPGs appeared. Everyone was amazed by the realism of those new MMOs, so everyone started to play them. Also, Tibia has no sound, and people also liked the fancy sounds of the most recent MMOs.
When Tibia started to lose some players, CipSoft made some mistakes when trying to attract new players. They introduced the Island of Destiny (a place where you can choose your vacation, you get fancy equipment in there and there are caves and dungeons where creatures spawn a lot. That way, you evolve both level and skills much faster. If you reach level 10, you have to leave to the mainland though). With this said, you would go better prepared to the mainland. Good right? Wrong. That made Tibia extremely easy. The mainland was a CHALLENGE to newcomers from Rookgaard. Not anymore with this new Island. The second mistake of CipSoft was when they made quests easier to be more accessible. The result? Most Veterans stopped playing the game.
Also, the game lost his RPG aspect. But that is player's fault. Today, the players of Tibia only want to level up, get more powerful. I don't see any people Role Playing like they did in the good old days. People now look on the Google how to do the quests, so they can go prepared and they already know what to face. It didn't used to be back on the good old times. I remember when I was going to do a quest with no idea of what I was going to face. I went to the location of the quest and I found Cyclops. I almost died in there, I had to go back. I discovered by myself the dangers of that place.
I didn't refer that, but on Tibia you can marry other people. Back on the golden age of Tibia, people married each other for the sake of role playing. Today, people marry each other just go get new outfits and to visit the Island of Meluna. You know, just to get the benefits of being married.
The game today is much more easier than before, so that doesn't attracts MMORPGs lovers that are always looking for challenges. I created an account on Tibia to see how things were. Those cities full of life disappeared. Hunting places totally empty. And I also don't see any teams hunting. Only lone wolfs hunting alone, by themselves to get the exp only for them. No one wants to share anything. The new community of Tibia is greedy. Everything has to have an end, and I think that it is about time that CipSoft closes down Tibia's servers and start developing a new game. Tibia is today a shadow of its former self. It is painful to see a great game in this shitty state.
I will never forget Tibia. It was a very important game in my life as a gamer. I want to thank CipSoft for creating such a great game, and it will be remembered by those who played it and dedicated a significant part of their gamer life to it.
Everything that is going to be left are memories... but GOOD memories. I'm feeling the nostalgia taking over me. I'm glad that I could play this game while it was in its "golden age". One of the greatest gaming experiences that I ever had. But unfortunately, those good old times will never come back.
Thank you for everything Tibia! I will never forget you, and I will certainly talk about you to my sons/grandsons (if I ever have any)
Let me know what you think of this new series of blogs, what I should improve, and which game I should talk about on the next episode! Sorry for the huge blog, but I had to write everything that was in my mind.

Doctors Prescribe New Medicine For Kids: Go Outside
The dramatic increase in the amount of time that children and teens spend using electronic devices, along with a lot less time spent playing outside, has caused serious health concerns for some kids, including obesity.
Dr. Christina Scirica, a pediatrician at Massachusetts General Hospital for Children in Boston, says she has been seeing young patients with symptoms traditionally found in adults including, "Pre-diabetes, diabetes, high blood pressure, vitamin D deficiency, joint pain, arthritis and hip problems." Needless to say, she finds the development worrisome.
In an effort to promote better health for children and prevent chronic illness, Massachusetts General Hospital has been collaborating on a pilot program called "Outdoors Rx," which trains pediatricians to write prescriptions for patients to participate in outdoor activities with the Appalachian Mountain Club.
Dr. Scirica, the medical director of "Outdoors Rx," explains how the Massachusetts program works and how it could be replicated nationally, and WGBH news reporter, Adam Reilly, shares his experience with one Boston-area family that has benefited from it.

Most sales people rely on methods that they have improvised or lifted from various books or training programs. If those methods no longer meet with success, it's time to update selling skills. Recent sales research is clear: buyers buy differently now, and old-time sales approaches won't cut it. Here are some questions to ask your sales team to determine if their approach is out-of-date.
Do you focus on persuading prospects to buy? They shouldn't be. Buyers feel your push to persuade and move away from you! Replace techniques of persuasion with real curiosity about what the buyer is doing now. Whose products or services are they using? Offer the buyer a powerful, provocative and short message to get the potential customer curious about what you offer.
Are you making arguments for doing business with your company? Change this behavior. Instead, begin with a sincere desire to see your buyer get what he or she wants, whether or not it involves working with your company. Then focus on what makes this buyer's situation challenging – talk and inquire about their situation so you understand it fully, before showing how your service can lessen or remove their challenging situation.
Do you assume that if a buyer needs what your company has to offer, they'll email or telephone you? This is a costly assumption to make. Instead assume the buyer doesn't remember your product or service; be proactive and get in touch with them. Remind them what you have and ask for a quick meeting. Most buyers are overwhelmed with information and potential suppliers. Time spent face-to-face or phone-to-phone with buyers correlates directly with closed business; there is no data on time spent in email communication correlating with sales success.
Do you get so busy that follow-up is haphazard? Not having a systematic and methodical follow-up process is a sure-fire way to lose sales. Develop a follow-up protocol and stick to it. As a rule of thumb, follow up with every new contact in no more than four business days, and follow up a second time within no more than 30 days of the first contact. Follow up sooner if there's an immediate need for, or interest in, what you have to sell. Even without such interest, unless they've disqualified themselves as a prospect, stay in touch three times during the month in which you first meet or contact them.
Are you talking more than you're listening? Talking too much is a real sales killer. Today's standard is "The 90-10-90 Rule." Let the prospect speak 90% of the time. Of the 10% of the time that you, the seller, are speaking, spend 90% of that time asking questions. Most sellers do exactly the opposite, barely allowing prospects to get a word in edgewise.. The exception to the rule is that sellers may talk as long as they need to if they are answering prospects' questions. But if prospects aren't asking, the seller should be inquiring.
Updating sales skills requires many sales people to make difficult changes in their routines. Sales training professionals can help ease the transition. If you decide to use one, get references. Speak with the leaders with whom they have worked; ask them what measurable improvements in sales results they saw following their sales training program.

** TESLA MOTORS INC, Thursday close $240.01, -4.07 pct premarket
The pioneering electric car maker said on Sunday that it delivered 17,400 vehicles in the fourth quarter of 2015, just above the low end of its forecast of 17,000-19,000.
Tesla delivered 208 of its new electric SUV, the Model X, in the quarter, below the expectations of some analysts. Robert W Baird analyst Ben Kallo, who had expected Tesla to deliver about 1,000 Model X cars, said deliveries were lower as "the Model X production ramp began later than we had expected" in the fourth quarter.

Voice of America: "The Story of Love" (1987)
Back late 1987, a 12-inch import came into the radio station. It was from a British band that went by the name Voice of America. The song, "Story of Love," became a cult alt-rock hit, especially in Southern Ontario and Western New York. I played the song countless times on the radio and in clubs. Later, I wrote the liner notes for a series of retro CDs for EMI, parent company of Virgin Records, the home of Voice of America. One volume featured "Story of Love."
That's when it dawned on me that I knew nothing about the band. And I mean nothing.
I went back into the archives at the radio station. No notes. No press releases. Just a simple black and white promo photo showing two unnamed guys (?) who looked vaguely Depeche Mode-ish. I needed to write something for the liner notes so I asked EMI for help. They went into their files and came back with…nothing.
The label rep was understandably frustrated. "I know this band is on our roster and we hold the publishing rights–but no one seems to know a damn thing about who they are or where they're from." "Story of Love" might as well have been recorded and released by aliens who then flew back to their home planet.
In October 2014, I posted this story on my website hoping that someone would be able to solve the mystery. This showed up in the comments.
Hey folks,
The trail ain't completely cold. I am Nigel, the keyboard player in the band and I co-wrote "Story of Love" with Dave Shaw.
The female vocal was Carroll Thompson, sometimes referred to as the Queen of Lover's Rock, a British style of reggae music noted for its romantic sound and content (according to Wikipedia).
We met here in the Denmark St demo studio where we worked, in Soho, when she was singing backing vocals for Maxi Priest at the end of the 80s. Her voice was so damn good that we could hardly bring ourselves to speak during the recording; it was like being in the presence of an angel.
Nice to know the songs touched some people at least.
Being signed to Virgin was a frustrating experience because they were going through a period of massive expansion, with over 80 bands on the roster. So they didn't really get behind the marketing. I didn't find out the records were released anywhere but the UK for over 20 years, when a Canadian remix dj called me up out of the blue asking if i was really the Nigel Haslam from VOA.
I haven't seen or heard from the other guys in the band for a long time. Live in Australia now and work in visual effects and animation. Life is sweet.
Thanks for your interest.
Well, that it, then. Thank you, Nigel!

Indignant waves admonished the proud rockface far below, sharpening it's ancient, scornful scowl with their unrelenting fury.
From the darkness of the path he could hear their elemental battle; the tender words of lovers and the yearning of a last goodbye... words spoken only to him.
On he climbed.
"Nice to get away", he said quietly.
Ruby said nothing.

Part of the fun of traveling is being exposed to beautiful elements of culture that you would not otherwise have experienced. The Hawaiian Islands are a paradise where the outdoor activities and adventures are endless and many of the local foods reflect this. After you explore the Hawaii's many attractions, why not visit some of the best restaurants and shops on the culinary tours or sample fresh produce from farmer's markets. As you experience new kinds of cuisine, make sure you add these top ten Hawaiian foods to your must-try list.
Poi: Far and away the most important staple of traditional Hawaiian culture, poi will almost always be one of the dishes you'll find wherever Hawaiian food is served. Poi is made from the cooked, fermented mash of the taro root. Some eat this pudding-like food with sugar and milk; but traditionalist will always eat plain. Taro is almost superfood-like in its health benefits, being filed with vitamins A and B-complex, thiamin, riboflavin, zinc, magnesium, copper, potassium, fiber and iron, making it a preferred food for babies born in the Aloha State.
Kalua Pig: The famous Hawaiian kalua pig is always the main entrée at a luau, a traditional Hawaiian feast. Cooked in the classic way, an entire pig is roasted to perfection in an underground Hawaiian oven called an imu and wrapped in banana leaves until the meat is moist, savory and easy to shred by hand. Once taken out of an imu, a fully cooked kalua pig, before its meat is pulled apart, looks very impressive. Even if you don't have the chance to attend a luau on your Hawaiian vacation, make sure to sample kalua pig.
Poke: For those who like raw fish, poke may become one of your favorite foods in the Aloha State. Though every island and restaurant may have their own creative take on the meal, poke is typically made from chunks of raw tuna, usually from ahi (yellowfin tuna) or aku (skipjack tuna) and mixed with ogo, (a local seaweed), slices of sweet Maui onions, inamona (the meat of the kukui nut), chili peppers and/or soy sauce.
Lomi Salmon: This is a standard dish served in places that specialize in Hawaiian foods. Lomi salmon is somewhat unique as a Hawaiian food dish in that all of its main ingredients—salted salmon, onions and tomatoes which are mixed together and then served cold—are either not found in or are not truly native to Hawaii. Despite that, this is dish is now considered to be as authentically Hawaiian as can be.
Spam Musubi: Hawaii's love of Spam goes back to World War II when it was the primary source of protein for many island residents because supplies of fresh meat were prioritized for the military. Since then, Hawaii has taken Spam to new levels in the form of the Spam musubi. Musubi is the Japanese name for rice ball, which is typically molded in a triangular shape. But in the case of a Spam musubi, a rectangular mold of rice has a slice of Spam wrapped onto it with nori, a Japanese dried, pressed sheet of roasted seaweed. Spam musubi can be even be jazzed up by cooking the Spam in teriyaki sauce and is a great meal for people on the go.
Loco Moco: No top ten list foods in Hawaii would be complete without the iconic loco moco. A power-packed bowl of protein and carbohydrates, this dish is a favorite among locals and visitors alike. The loco moco is typically served in a bowl of white rice and topped with a hamburger patty and an egg fried easy-over on top of it and smothered with brown gravy. Whether you crave serious sustenance after a long day in the sunshine or need fuel for a long nap, the loco moco is an absolute must.
Plate Lunch: Though this may not be the healthiest item on the list, the plate lunch in Hawaii is the ultimate gut-busting comfort food in the Aloha State. A typical plate lunch will include two scoops of white rice, macaroni salad and a wide range of heavy duty protein option such as teriyaki beef, pork cutlet, chicken katsu, chili with franks and more. For the diet conscious, in some places you may have the option of substituting the macaroni salad for a tossed salad.
Malasadas: Soft and delicate, these delicious pastries are somewhat akin to donuts, but without the holes and are lighter and sweeter. Excellent either a dessert or morning starter, malasadas trace their roots from the Portuguese immigrants who came to Hawaii during the late 1800s to the early 1900s. The delectable deep-fried malasadas can also be filled with coconut cream, mango or lilikoi fillings; but whether you go with the plain or ones with fillings, this treat is a winner.
Haupia: Traditionally the dessert served at Hawaiian luaus, haupia is a coconut-lover's delight. Sweet and simple, the haupia is a custard-like dessert made from coconut milk mixed with ground pia root or corn starch. Haupia is typically served in cut squares and is a nice light finish to any robust Hawaiian dinner.
Shave Ice: Last but definitely not least, shave ice might arguably be the most popular dessert in the islands. Famous across the world, Hawaiian shave ice uses finely shaved, not crushed, ice and infused with sweet syrups ranging from the classic strawberry to an amazingly wide range of exotic flavors, such as coconut, lilikoi and kiwi. You can even add sweet azuki beans, ice cream and even condensed milk to sweeten the deal for a pulse-pumping end to the day.

any guide on how to connect from N/A?
Last I heard they weren't even blocking na. Everyone was logging in fine.
I think you can just play it from NA. The only issue was you had to use a VPN to Pre Order the game and let you play the head start. If you didn't, your going to need to wait until 29th? I think for the official release.
thx for the info,

Our first few days in El Carrizal
... they can't afford to pay. The outcome is that too often a person will die, even though all they need would be a simple procedure or an easily accessible medicine in England. So I guess the message is think twice before complaining about the NHS because, in reality, we would be lost without it. They do pay taxes but there is a lot of corruption within the goverment and our family told us they have no idea where their taxes go. If only they could be used ...
Hunger Strike lifted
... and there was a very efficient set up for light and sound. Some groups had set up small tents with services or information. There seemed to me to be an obvious lack of police, for the police and military are usually quite visible. I later discovered that the police were very near, armed in full riot gear and accompanied by water cannon trucks. However as the night proceeded the lines of riot police seemed to be thinning and they kept their distance from the protest. The atmosphere ...
A slice of Honduras
... from a different one that what I had arrived. Why such small places cannot organise themselves to use one bus station is beyond me.
I finished the afternoon walk with a short hike up to the Fortaleza San Cristobal overlooking the westward side of the town. The fortress dates from the nineteenth century and is the burial place of Juan Lindo. A man who was president of both El Salvador and Honduras. Now that is unusual.
There was also a little ...
Christmas Day in Tegucigalpa
... and spotted someone who wanted more than what our guidebook said and he went and found someone who did meet our demand. The taxi made quick work of the short distance to the historic center.
After checking into our hotel, we found a Chinese restaurant nearby and wolfed down rice and vegetables before heading out for a walk in the central area. It was Christmas day afternoon and there were a few ...
Thursday evening found me once again in the capital city, Tegucigalpa. I came here with two key members of Melo's team to participate in a "conversatorio" -best translated as a panel discussion at the U.N.A.H. - the Autonomous National University of Honduras. Part of the work of ERIC, among it's many scientific, economical, and sociological publications, is the publication of the quarterly magazine ENVIO.

Sanofi-Aventis to Provide Grants for UCSF Research
Sanofi-aventis has become the first industry partner to become involved in the University of California, San Francisco's (UCSF) Program for Breakthrough Biomedical Research (PBBR), which is now entering its 14th year. The organizations have established two R&D collaborations, one focused on speeding the progress of an oncology program through to clinical proof of concept, the other designed to promote R&D in multiple therapeutic areas, including oncology, aging, diabetes, and inflammation.
Under terms of the partnership a joint UCSF/sanofi-aventis steering committee will choose from a number of UCSF-generated research proposals. Sanofi-aventis will provide up to five grants a year, and will also fund an annual research forum to combine researchers from both organizations. "By promoting open and deep scientific exchange between UCSF's leading researchers and sanofi-aventis' drug development experts, we aim to generate significant healthcare advances in multiple therapeutic areas," remarks Christopher A. Viehbacher, sanofi-aventis CEO.
UCSF's PBBR initiative provides funding to promising research programs, and has provided $42 million in funding over the last decade. Sanofi-aventis says its partnership with UCSF is part of its strategy to establish relationships and collaborations with academic innovators.

What a privilege is in store for the 82,000 spectators who will crowd into Twickenham Stadium today for England's match against Scotland, both teams' first in the 2007 Six Nations competition.
This is because the former rugby league hero, Andy "Faz" Farrell, is to make his union debut for England.
Through Farrell, the spectators will get a taste of the lung-busting work ethic, the finely honed skill and the admirable honesty that characterise the northern code of rugby; qualities that often raise it to a standard of entertainment above the southern strain of the sport.
Once again, the debate will rage about whether the two codes will some day be as one. But we say keep them separate. Enjoy their differences; admire their particular skills; celebrate their cultural heritage. And know which one is superior.Reuse content

Pope Francis has always been vocal about his desire to visit Asia, and his failed wishes to go on mission to Japan when he was young. On the way back from the Holy Land, he announced his travel schedule for the coming months.
"With regard to Asia, two trips are planned: the one to South Korea, for the meeting of young Asians, and then, next January, a two-day trip to Sri Lanka and then on to the Philippines, to the area affected by the typhoon."
Though it's last on his schedule, so far, his visit to the Philippines will be highly significant. The country boasts the third largest Catholic population. More importantly, it's location is highly strategic for the Catholic Church in Asia.
Rector, Pontifical Filipino College (Rome)
"Our advantage as Filipinos, I think, is that we can easily adapt to the different cultures, and that way we can also bring the message of Christ to the different peoples in Asia."
The exact details of the Pope's trip to this devout, Asian archipelago is still unclear. The only thing confirmed is that he'll tour areas damaged by Typhoon Haiyan in November 2013.
Rector, Pontifical Filipino College (Rome)
"There's still a lot of suffering, until now, so his presence, God willing, would really help a lot, would really be meaningful, would really touch the hearts of the Filipinos. Not only in that area but all over the world."
The Church has been one of the main driving forces in the reconstruction efforts. In fact, in February, the Church broke ground on the Pope's personal project, an orphanage next to the diocesan building in Tacloban.
Rector, Pontifical Filipino College (Rome)
"For us the visit of the Pope is like, well without making him an idol, but really it's like the presence of Jesus himself, the presence of God himself."
Paul VI and John Paul II visited the Philippines as well. During the last visit, in 1995, nearly five million people gathered in Manila to see the Polish saint. It would hardly be surprising is a similar turnout greets Pope Francis in January.

In need of a little relaxation or spiritual recharge? Physical activity or just some renewed mental focus?
No matter your purpose or skill level, area yoga studios are offering up a few things that will make you go "om" this weekend.
Instructors Eddy Nataraj and Mary Glackmeyer bring the ancient call-and-response chanting known as Kirtan to Longwave Yoga, 203 Racine Drive, Suite 200, at 7:30 p.m. Thursday.
According to the practice, each syllable and vowel has a vibration, and when you string them together to form chants, or mantras, they can help purify the mind and "subtle body" (the space between the atoms).
No previous knowledge of yoga, meditation or Kirtan is required. Nataraj and Glackmeyer offer up a fresh take on Kirtan with a fusion of traditional harmonium and the dynamic sounds of Spanish flamenco guitar.
The class is open to all ages with a suggested donation of $15.
Get your weekend started out mindfully with an oceanfront session, hosted by Tamara Yoga, at 7 a.m. Friday at the new Carolina Beach Boardwalk. Tamara Yoga holds the morning sessions each Tuesday and Friday throughout the summer at various outdoor locations. Classes are $10, with an extra $2 charge if you need to rent a mat.
And on Sunday, Harmony Yoga, 4320 Wrightsville Ave., Unit B, hosts a two-hour Yoga Nidra experience with instructor Brandon Lee. Yoga Nidra, or "yoga sleep," is an ancient practice of deep meditation and relaxation.

text: Apparently the world does not care about Chris Brown being in a competition with Michael Lohan for worst celebrity for a woman to be seen with. Charlie Sheen was disqualified for the competition because he failed his urine test, although he kept insisting it was because he has warlock pee and that cannot be measured. Anyway, Chris apologized for his outburst on Good Morning America, ABC gave him a slap on the wrist and then got on their knees and thanked him for still wanting to appear on DWTS. Then, for good measure, ABC told all the people on DWTS they cannot say anything about the incident to the press and have to pretend that Chris is the most wonderful person in the world. And to top it all off, Chris is going to have the number one album in America this week and the second biggest seller of the year. Way to show those record labels you care about what their artists do.
