Gonna go backpacking in Europe for our honeymoon next year August 2010. Starting to plan now, any suggestions, places to visit, tips etc? We are not planning on camping – doing the hostel/hotel thing (occasional hotel as I'll be with the wife)Oct 9, 2009 at 9:55 am #1534673

Maybe you should consider joining Youth Hostels (YHA) or the equivalent in the USA try Youth Hostel International this will give you cheaper access to many places in Europe. By the way what do you mean by Europe? It is a big place.Oct 9, 2009 at 10:02 am #1534675

My two favourite places in Europe :
– Iceland
– Scotland
Oct 9, 2009 at 3:32 pm #1534836
Well I mean Scotland, Ireland, Iceland, my wife thinks France, England, Greece.. So we have some planning to do, we are not going to eastern Europe or Italy but everything else is open. I will look into the hostels thanks!Oct 9, 2009 at 5:26 pm #1534874
Benefits galore. And info in English. Don't have to be British (though I am). The British Alpine Club reciprocal discount card can be purchased through the BMC. Includes many of Europe's hut systems — discounts can be in the 50% range. Must purchase by calender year.
Never found YHA useful in huts. Only mountain club cards.
I love staying in mountain huts — love the tightness, remoteness, new friends, etc. These aren't exactly what many Americans think of when they think of "hostels". They can be VERY limited in amenities (probably not the correct word) and they are NOT cheap for what you get — remote huts are expensive to maintain! Since you say this is your honeymoon, thought I'd mention this — you will NOT see ANY privacy.
Of course many of the classic walks take you through towns sometimes daily with the possibility of all sorts of lodging options.The TMB will offer you a town just about every night. With substantial refugios on the other nights. (I am assuming the Cicerone guide pace!) The Alpine Pass Route from Sargans to Montre/Montreux will allow lodging in a town/village each night.
Sorry to insult the OP if you have stayed in mountain huts and are familiar with the culture!Oct 9, 2009 at 6:22 pm #1534892

The benefits of the British Mountain Club are really useful and if you can get the membership to work out right, it is a very good thing to have in the mountains in Europe.
Just be careful with the registration process. Two years ago before I visited the Alps I tried to get membership. Because my name is long the people in charge of the processing got my name on the card wrong. I contacted them about this and got a diatribe in response (still don't know why). When I wrote back that I needed to have the membership card fixed before I took off I was shunted to the manager at the place who also went on a whole diatribe about their having done their part and there was no need anymore for further talk on the subject. I just couldn't understand what all the fuss was about… I just needed the name on the card changed to the right one. Eventually it got all the way to the top of the chain and my card got issued… six months after I'd already returned from Europe.Oct 9, 2009 at 6:35 pm #1534897

As another Brit on the forum, I think you should check into the coast to coast walk in England. Look up Wainwright's books on the topic (forget the name). He hiked, journaled and mapped a huge number of excellent trails in England. His descriptions are really like poetry and his hand drawn maps are beautiful.
The Coast to Coast Walk goes from St Bees on the East coast of England to Robin Hood's Bay on the West coast, passing through three of the most beautiful national parks in the UK and joining together lots of smaller trails. I've been researching it for a fast / stealth backpack for next year, but the traditional hike is about 10-14 days staying in B&Bs & hotels in small towns. I think it would be a great honeymoon if you're both into hiking. August would be a great time to do it, too.
Cheers, James.Oct 9, 2009 at 6:50 pm #1534901
The YHA won't be any use in Europe in the mountains.
> Mountain Huts … can be VERY limited in amenities
Showers? Only sometimes. May be 2 minute jobs too.
Toilets? Yes, but may be squat toilets and/or long drops.
Food? If catered (some are not), the food is GOOD.
Privacy? Dormitories!
> The Alpine Pass Route from Sargans to Montre/Montreux will allow lodging in a town/village each night.
But you sleep at 500 – 1,000 m each night, and cross a 2,500 m pass each day. (Metres, not feet.) You had better be FIT! (We did it this year.)
CheersOct 9, 2009 at 7:18 pm #1534906
CLASSIC means anyone reasonably athletically inclined can do it, IMO. This was my first multi-day hike! I think it was a good choice. No planning necessary and a VERY light load. Bed, restaurant and a hot shower every night if you follow Cicerone. I did it alone and in September with some sketchy weather. Didn't train. I'm a runner, walker, swimmer, diver, yoga freak, etc but not some uber-fit specimen.
I do think the Cicerone book (at least the the edition available 7 years ago) does UNDER-state the effort a bit. I'm new on this forum and I HATE it when people OVER-state difficulty. But this gives me some context in which to regard the posts! Thanks!
This would be the perfect 2-3 week walk for a newbie with a bit of athleticism. Don't really need any specific training. Nothing remotely technical in summer. Yeah, it's hills — passes! I believe 16 size-able passes. Walked from Sargans, you get some of the harder days first. But it's just walking between population centers each day!
A few years ago, me and my Dad (75 years old at the time) did the TMB on the Cicerone plan/timing. It was his first such walk. He did just fine. He runs, ellipticals and does some light weights. I snuck some stuff from his pack when he was in the toilet at lunch. We met a wonderful Dutch couple that we walked along with from time to time. The guy was lean and long-legged the girl small and powerful — they were doing some camping and she was carrying all that stuff. So my dad got over it pretty fast. The race came through at the time so there was plenty of entertainment for a weekend. We were afraid some of the resting people were dead. I ran along with a racer for a couple hours. The whole experience is a blast. These are classic walks. Well marked and done by a huge number of people. Don't be intimidated. Order the Cicerone guides and follow the cookbook.
I've done a bunch of these classics. They are basically back to back day walks.
If you want shorter and less strenuous hike of a week you can do the hiker's HIgh Route between Chamonix and Zermatt. On the Zermatt side of this walk, the newish Europaweg displays some incredible engineering. Simply gorgeous.
If you are looking for just a couple days out, you can do just the Europaweg from Zermatt and land at a train station and take a short ride back to Zermatt. Lodging on this 2 day walk is a DELUXE refugio.
One more thing August in the Alps can be VERY crowded on the popular trails. This is not an excuse not to go but just to make reservations before you arrive at the hut! That is unless you plan to camp — I will admit, these walks would become a different beast in that case.Oct 9, 2009 at 8:10 pm #1534913

Hi Hartley
> the newish Europaweg displays some incredible engineering
Ahhhh… when did you do it? We did it in Aug-2009.
Bear in mind this track was created by bureaucrats at their desk; it is not a old established reliable track used by the farmers.
The first major gully (Grosse Graben) has avalanched and the makeshift track across it is a bit … worrying. It goes across the middle of this photo.
Further on the hillside itself has slipped away, taking the track with it. There is a high zigzag bypass, but it is right over the avalanche stuff, and will collapse soon.
Then there is the section straight after the Europaweghutte, in full view of the balcony. This is where they built avalanche roofs over the track and even put in a tunnel, with solar panels for lighting. But Nature sneezed at the bureaucrats' efforts.
What you can see is the twisted remains of the avy roofs. There is a big puff of dust near the big boulder in the middle of the pic: that was a huge rock falling from above and hitting while we watched from the hut balcony. Rocks were coming down at about 10-15 minute intervals.
A great track? From Tasch to Zermatt maybe.
CheersOct 9, 2009 at 11:13 pm #1534976
Roger, thanks for the update! Nice Photo. Jives nicely with my comment, doesn't it? Do you know when the slide occurred? How much did it take out — how long was the walk across the "damage". I guess I can google all this. Good point about the bureaucrats vs the shepherds.
When did I do it? Various trips to that area. Think I did the C-Z walk before Europaweg was finished. Walked the Europaweg from Zermatt shortly after it opened — 4 years ago maybe? There was a lot of fanfare related to this little trail. And it WAS splendid. I have some photos I think. Some groovy bridges and cables, I remember. And the tunnel — don't think the solar lights were working or certainly didn't shine very bright. Had a torch.Oct 10, 2009 at 12:51 am #1534982
Woubeir (from Europe)BPL Member
As we did the Chamonix-Zermatt trail last year en part of the Alpine Pass route (from Sargans to Lauterbrunen) this year, I guess it's nice to see the experience of others.
From both routes I definitely prefer the C-Z trail as it is more spectaculair in its entirety and it's more remote.
The Europaweg is indeed a bit delicate in places. If I look at the pictures, I think most of the avalanches already occured before august 2008 when we were there because the trails seem awfully familiar. As a result, some parts took much longer than exspected. The trail needs constant maintenance because it is so fragile. Buth it does make for a spectaculair trail. For those who can suffer from vertigo (like myself), it can be a bit frightening at times but I'm glad we did it. An we found a beautifull spot to camp just before the Europahut with both sunset and sunrise spectaculaur with all those 4000m mountains in the back.
I did notice the last picture from Roger with the avalanched trail but I do seem to remember that you're not supposed to take that part anymore. The trail goes down from there, circumvents the problematic part and goes up furtheron to meet the original trail. Still taking the old trail cannot be done by mistake since all the signs are very clear.
The Alpine Pass route is of a different quality. It does take you more through cultural Switzerland but as a result it's sometimes difficult to find remote places. Since we decided to camp all the way to Lauterbrunen, we did nearly every stage in 2 times. Ending each day in a village is not exactly what we preferred. Especially given the size of some of villages. We also took some buses. Ending each day in a village below 1000 meters and as low as 500 meters not only means a long climb up to reach the 2000 meters + passes but also that the first few hours of the day, you spend your time in the woods where you don't have much vision of the mountains all around. so from Sargans, we did the first part by bys. From Elm tot Altdorf, we did most by bus because there's a big road running through the same valley you have to walk through (except a few hours walking from the Klaussenpass). End from Meiringen we also did part by bus because my wife saw up against all those climbing in the woods.
Although it is a nice route, the first days, untill you reach the Berner Oberland, are just that: nice moments in the mountains but nothing spectaculair. From the Grosse Scheidegg, you get your first spectacular view when you first can see the Eiger in its full glory. Especially nice if you now all the background history about the mountain. I guess from there on it should be spectacular beyond Lauterbrunen just to Kandersteg and Gsteig but I can't comment on that since we havent done that part (yet).
Oh yes, in general the Benrer Oberland sees a lot of rain as it forms part of the northern range and as such is he first to meet the wet weather coming from over the Atlanctic. Wallis (C-Z route) is considered drier. However, this year, on the Alpine Pass route we havent spent more than 5 minutes walking in the rain so we can't complain about that.Oct 10, 2009 at 1:29 am #1534986
Tom and Roger, enjoyed reading about your experiences. The buses! This is a great point in that you can enjoy more scenic sections and cut out the road walking. I've had a hard time getting my head around the bus! Hard-headed. Interesting when I did TMB with my 75 year old Dad, there were a couple times when I thought he might want to take the bus instead of pound pavement. He was very adamant about this — NOT possible. It's an excellent point to make for the OP. With experience, I suspect I'll get my head around this.Oct 10, 2009 at 1:36 am #1534987
Haven't done it. Another one that's on my list. Sounds like a pretty mellow hike and and a real cultural experience. Logistics tolerable. There's also a mini version with no logistics. Or ski it — guess that's when you get more of the cultural element.Oct 10, 2009 at 1:47 am #1534988

@fredfotoLocale: Spain
Shame you are not thinking of putting Spain on that list- great hiking and routes in various mountain ranges- Picos de Europa, Pyrenees, Camino de Santiago etc.
Great thing about Spain is you can have a week at the beach after you've hiked high in the mountians for a while.
Have a great holiday wherever you go!!
fredOct 10, 2009 at 1:56 am #1534991
Spot on Fred, there is some great walking and climbing to be had in Spain. I have put up a few trip reports here in the past. Not many people look at or comment on them. Not sure why.Oct 10, 2009 at 1:59 am #1534992
I've done the Camino de Santiago — hesitated to put it up here since it's not really backpacking. It is a fantastic experience! Another one you can do with ZERO planning. It is good if you need "to find yourself" or are feeling lonely. Like therapy. For the OPs honeymoon???
Going to do the HRP SOON. Was on my list for this summer and missed the window. Then considered a later season hike of the GR11. Just something about walking from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean really intrigues me.
Rog, gorgeous photo. Only really been hanging out here a couple weeks. Haven't taken in the whole product yet. Time to check out the trips!Oct 10, 2009 at 2:08 am #1534993
"The Coast to Coast Walk goes from St Bees on the East coast of England to Robin Hood's Bay on the West coast, passing through three of the most beautiful national parks in the UK and joining together lots of smaller trails. I've been researching it"
Keep up the research James, and turn the map the right way up!
St bees – West coast : RHB east coast. ;-)
Wainright called the book "A coast to coast walk" because there are many routes you could choose. As James says, they are beautiful books. His Guides of the Lake District are still the de facto standard 50 years after he wrote them.
Be sure to let us know if you come to North England, we'll join you for a day or dtwo.Oct 10, 2009 at 2:24 am #1534995
Thanks Hartleyf, I've got hundreds of photos from Spain, I'll get them all online someday. That one was up in the high Sierra Nevada at about 9000 feet. In the background is Mulhacen, Southern Spain's highest mountain. That sunset was one of the highlights of my backpacking life. Next day I climbed the Pico Valeta.
Did a bit on the GR11 a couple of years ago, before hitching up into Andorra. Great place by the way Dave for summer hikers, hotels are cheap pre ski season.
Here's a trip report from the Costa Blance from January.
Dave and his Lady could do a lot worse than the area north of Alicante, great beaches, great mountains, great food. August is hot in Spain though, if you are not used to it.Oct 10, 2009 at 2:01 pm #1535101
Hi Hartley
The HRP is wildly different from the Camino of course, but it is also very different from the GR11. The Camino with zero planning? I guess you could! :-)
The GR11 is a very rough (undeveloped) copy-cat of the French GR10 on the other side of the Pyrenees. There are some stony gravel tracks which are hard on the feet (and hot), and there are some Passes which can be … interesting. We did one pass by going up a gully on hard neve in joggers with nothing in our hands at all. I was doing karate strikes into the neve to make hand-holds. The sun was pretty fierce too that year.
The HRP is hard to do without support. Unlike the GR10 and GR11, it does not really come down to resupply points. The preferred method (according to the book) is to have someone meet you by car – not possible for us of course. Alternately you have to keep leaving the ridge to resupply. No solution yet.
CheersOct 10, 2009 at 2:19 pm #1535107
Thanks Roger.
Yes, there is nothing like the Camino. It is not really a hike but an experience — at least the Francis through Spain. Obviously, there are other routes to Santiago.
As for the HRP, I have been through the Cicerone guides for HRP (there's a new one this summer and some new info), GR11 and GR10. Clearly combinations are possible.
Yeah, I realize that HRP is not a village to hut to village trip as GR 10 and GR11 could be. But I'm ready to branch out a bit. HRP is one where I would utilize the postal service for sure. I would plan to do some side peaks and would want things that I could do with out through the first part of the walk. I would not consider it a failure if I had to come down lower for part of the walk — I would not equate that with taking the BUS! I can not get my head around the bus — I will walk days around a pass if necessary — letting the buses pass me by! Of course, I am not as experienced as you and may get over this. Pavement pounding is hard on the bod!Oct 10, 2009 at 4:29 pm #1535137
Hi Hartley
Yes, we mixed bits of the HRP into the GR10 one year. The HRP does not have the excellent balisage that the GR10 does. You need to be able to navigate – and sort out the occasionally confusing errant markings.
Buses … Yeah, I know. We took the bus for the last bit into Altdorf on the Alpine Passes route because walking down that narrow road on asphalt with heavy traffic zooming past was getting a bit too much of a hazard for OUR liking. But that was all.
CheersOct 10, 2009 at 4:43 pm #1535142
"The HRP does not have the excellent balisage that the GR10 does. You need to be able to navigate – and sort out the occasionally confusing errant markings."
While no expert at navigation I'm ready to start moving to the next level. Like most, I'm lazy about getting out the map and compass. But I've had quality instruction on numerous occasions and some experience in difficult situations. I've had a Garmin 60CSx (yes, heavy) for a couple years and have taken a few short courses on its use and played with it when I don't need it. GPS is no substitute!!! You learn even more about navigation when you find yourself in an uncomfortable predicament. I also have an uncanny ability to see markings on rocks and trees and to spot stakes miles away — when I hike with others I am very competitive about this. Just thought I'd add that for amusement not that it's really relevant.Oct 10, 2009 at 5:43 pm #1535160
We talked about Spain and the only reason we didnt think about it is because we knew nothing of the country. We had no idea what the landscape was like, so its helpful to get the perspective of someone that has been there. The more "traditional" places to visit in the UK and Europe are better known and advertised so we knew of them. The backpacking route through England sounds awesome, in fact we now have some extended family that live in England (no idea where) so that could really pan out. I really like the photos included of Iceland and Scotland, most of my friends have been there and I am envious, those pictures will definitely help us make a more informed plan. As my wife and I discuss it more, it seems like the Honeymoon will only be the beginning… For everyone to know, we have set aside about 18-21 days for our honeymoon.

Project Description
Organ-on-a-chip (OOC) applications are one of the fastest growing research areas in the life science and pharmaceutical industries. Micronit offers both organ-on-a-chip flowcells and generic resealable glass flowcells to enable the (co-)culturing of cells and tissues. Our organ-on-a-chip devices consist of two resealable glass slides that are assembled with a cell culture membrane suspended in between them to form two separate flow chambers. This allows the flow of two different fluids, either liquids or gases, on either side of the membrane. This dynamic microfluidic flow approach enables new and innovative ways to culture cells and tissues while offering precise and continuous control during the complete culturing process. This is in strong contrast with the more traditional static culturing methods employing tissue culture inserts in petri-dishes and microplates.
Our standard organ-on-a-chip products offer researchers an easy-to-use starting point to facilitate cutting edge molecular biological research and customized development of dedicated application-driven solutions. There are a wide variety of applications for organ-on-a-chip systems that our platform technology can accommodate, including:
• Neural or cardio-vascular networks-on-a-chip
• Gut-on-a-chip
• Liver-on-a-chip
• Skin-on-a-chip
• Lung-on-a-chip
• Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) or bone marrow-on-a-chip
• ESC or iPSC-derived stem cells (ESC/iPSC)-on-a-chip
All these applications hold the promise of having a significant impact on improving the predictability of drug screening models and Personalised Medicine. Organ-on-a-chip technology supports these research areas by providing an environment that can mimic the human physiology and morphology in vivo better than traditional cell culturing methods. Scalable organ-on-a-chip production is made possible by combining the enabling technologies originating from both the semiconductor and molecular biology industries.
Micronit offers a standard organ-on-a-chip format with a variety of membrane materials possible. However, if this design does not meet your needs then feel free to contact us directly to see how our innovative manufacturing techniques can satisfy your advanced biological application needs.

I visited this facility
The Vilas Home (Samuel F. Vilas Home) was expensive, but they took care of the needs or the request of the people that were living in their houses. I liked the fact that they had individual rooms. They had a dining room. They were so close to many things in the community that they helped them go out to do the activities in the community if they wanted to. They weren't isolated. The staff was very considerate, and they tried to be helpful or if they couldn't do what the person wanted may be because it was the doctor's order or something, they would explain it to them. It was very nice because it was closer to college, and if they wanted to they could go out because the college put on shows. They were also close to shopping; if they were still able to walk, they are 3 or 4 blocks from shopping. It was an older building, but the rooms were big enough with a nice size bed, a dresser, and all those kind of things. It was a smaller facility, but they had a sitting room and a library. Most of the ladies I knew accepted it because they were treated so nicely, and they realized that this was much better for them because they couldn't take care of themselves the way they used to 20 years ago. I would recommend them to others.
Caring106055550 February 13, 2015
I visited this facility
The staff at Samuel F. Vilas was excellent. They were mainly young adults probably in their early twenties, and there were some older women that were downstairs in the nursing station. Those young people are very energetic and nice. From what my mother-in-law is saying, the food is very good, and there is plenty of it too. I wasn't there that long, but from what I understand, they had reading rooms and had some game rooms. I guess there are a couple of church services that are there on the weekend. We were up there in the winter, and it seemed to be very well kept and well maintained. It was nice and very clean. We actually looked in some of the restrooms, and they were spotless. It's comfortable there. They have couches, lounges, recliners, and a couple of TV rooms. It's very house oriented; it's not like an institution. It's got paintings and furnishings, and the bedrooms are nice. It looks like an old colonial house with one small parking lot on one side. It's actually got a wraparound porch, so when the weather gets nice they can sit outside.

Seeking reliefMature
After I retrieved my knife and cut Elena free, I gingerly lead her back into the living area and sat her down on the nearest stool while I looked for something to wrap her in and some liquor to kill the pain. I found a bottle of rotgut in a cupboard and, despite the name, she seemed very happy to see it.
She took a long, gulping swig, like a starving infant finally exposed to the teat.
"'The hell are you doing here?" She croaked, chin dripping wasted hooch.
"Saving your ass by the look. Or would you rather I had left the nice psychopath to finish his opus?"
She stared at me suspiciously for a moment. Weighing the virtue in pulling the holdout pistol she had under the end table and dropping me against her debt to the man who had, just seconds ago, saved her from a long and agonizing demise.
"Fucking mercs." She mumbled to me, not at me, as she eased up and offered me the bottle. I passed, Starting to worry about my total lack of crisis medicine training and the alarming dearth of blood pouring from her exposed abdomen. Really, I was surprised she wasn't dead yet, even with coagulants to slow the bloodflow she should be bleeding... well like she'd been skinned.

Join us as we welcome musician and humanitarian Peter Gabriel to The School of Life.
In conversation with the philosopher Alain de Botton, Peter will consider the lessons learned from his life as one of the world's most influential musicians. And we'll explore his work as a human rights activist and campaigner, and how it can inspire our own efforts to make a difference.
As both founder of progressive rock band Genesis and a highly lauded solo artist, Peter Gabriel is one of the world's most celebrated musicians: with three Brit Awards, six Grammy Awards, thirteen MTV Music Video Awards, a Q and an Ivor Novello lifetime achievement award, and the Polar Music Prize. From the triple platinum album So to the dark and innovative landscapes of his eponymous fourth album, his influence can be heard on generations of music makers.
As a passionate supporter of world music, Gabriel founded the WOMAD festival in 1982, and continues to champion global artists through his Real World Records label. His agency Witness trains activists around the world to expose human rights abuses, and since 1986, his extensive support for Amnesty International and other human rights organisations has earned him recognition in Time magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Alongside Richard Branson and Nelson Mandela, he founded The Elders, a small, dedicated group of cultural and political leaders dedicated to resolving world conflict. In recognition of his work as an activist, the Nobel Peace Prize laureates awarded Gabriel the Man of Peace award in 2006.
Across a host of beautiful venues in central London, leading thinkers from the UK and abroad join TSOL's Faculty in conversation to share their wisdom for living well. Speakers for this strand have been invited by The School of Life to present their own material. Session formats will vary depending on the subject.

At first Tyler Hansbrough, treats the discussion like the typical interview he faces throughout the season. When the conversation turns to Chapel Hill and his Carolina days, he seems like a different person. He eases back a bit further in his locker room seat, and before long, a broad smile appears.
What were some of the reasons you decided to go to Carolina?
"I chose Carolina because of Roy Williams, to be honest with you. I felt like he was the best coach that was recruiting me. I developed a relationship with him and his staff, and felt like those were the people I wanted to play for."
What do you remember of Roy's unsuccessful trip to come see you play as described in his book?
"I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember Coach Williams told me, I think, the night before that he was going to try and come out and watch me play. And we had horrible weather. I kept looking for him in the stands, and was like, "I don't think he showed up." But he took a plane flight, and had to land in Arkansas, two and a half hours away, and him and his wife went to Sonic and got a burger, and a slushie and then they had to fly back."
Interview Excerpt:
"You can always tell the freshman. You get lost on campus. It's a much bigger campus than I was used to back in Poplar Bluff [Missouri.] I used to get lost. Midway through my freshman year was when things really started clicking, I was getting comfortable and wasn't homesick anymore.
"After the games, we'd all go hang out, and laugh and have fun, like teammates. It wasn't like we went to the gym and just left , and that was it. We were boys, we were tight, we're best friends. That's when I realized how much I like Carolina. I grew to love Carolina. That's like my family. Everywhere - around the campus."
What did you think when you saw Harrison Barnes, John Henson, and Tyler Zeller announce they were coming back to UNC for another year?
"I'm happy for them. It's your decision. I made my decision. Do what's best for you. Obviously they wanted to come back and do some big things at Carolina, or just have fun and go to school, which is cool with me. If they would've left, I would have still liked them. I wouldn't have held anything against them."
How did the extra years help you?
"I always liked Carolina. I liked hanging out with my teammates. I liked going to class, hanging around the campus. I liked seeing everybody and going out, having fun, and just being a college student. Basketball wise, I had a few more years under Coach Williams, which helped me develop my game. It helped me build some toughness, which I carry with me now."
How do you stay in touch with the guys you played with who are now in the NBA?
I see them when they come into town. I try to take them out to dinner if they come to Indy. Or I'll see them when I go to their place, and catch up with them, see how they're doing. In the offseason, we'll run into each other in Chapel Hill."
What's your relationship with Bobby Frasor?
"He's like my best friend. He came into Indy to watch the games. He was at all the games in Chicago. We're real close. He's doing well."
The rivalry with Duke. Does it extend into the NBA?
"No, we pretty much ended it. They give me a tough time when they beat us or when we beat them. It goes back and forth, but I don't hold anything against them."
How has your relationship with Coach Williams changed since you've moved on to the pros?
"[Laughs] I don't know. I'm a little more laid back when I go see Coach. It's good. I always check up on Coach and see how he's doing. I really keep in contact with coach [Joe] Holladay, though. He called recently, to check up on me, and things like that."
Check back tomorrow for Part III…

Not so long ago, it seemed no politician of any stripe wanted to build the downtown relief line of the Toronto subway.
By any objective measure, the project is badly needed. The inner city has not received a single new rapid transit station since the 1960s, despite growing denser every year, and the Yonge line is increasingly crowded with suburban commuters.

Title: Nightingale
Summary: Because she is a kunoichi.
She was a kunoichi and it was expected one day that this would come. For shinobi, sex was tension and stress, and best gotten out of the way as it would only drag them down. For kunoichi, sex was a weapon.
When she is handed that black and white scroll sealed with the ranking of an S-Class mission, she stares but clenches her hand tight around the order.
They offer her a faceless, nameless ANBU for her preparation, but she declines. Some think it would be easier if they had no face, no name to tie to the deed but she is not one of them. She can not give herself up for the first time to someone she does not know, she thinks that it might or might not make things worse between them afterwards, she might regret it, but she would regret it more if she had never known who they were in the first place.
She thinks about Kiba and wonders if she would have given it a chance if it would not have destroyed their friendship totally. She pushes Shino aside because he is an intensely private man, and he would not agree to the act without more meaning attached to it. She ponders of other men in her acquaintance but in the end it is futile. She really only wants her first choice.
She approaches Naruto.
She approaches Naruto, and can't bring herself to speak of the notion at all. He smiles at her with twinkling blue eyes, a glowing smile, and broad shoulders that carried the weight of more then they should – and she can't bring herself to burden him even more.
It is Neji in the end that has observed her irregular actions and awkward avoidances that figures out what is going on. He approaches her one evening and offers.
In the end he is her only choice, and it's not much at choice at all, but she takes his hand a week after he approached her and her time is running out.
He touches her and she trembles. She kisses him and he softens. She surges up against him and he gasps. He pushes into her and she shatters.
It is like their secrets bared to the world. There is not one inch of her he does not see, there is not one part of him she does not touch. It is Neji naked without the past, and it is Hinata without her defences.
And when the time comes, she is led blindfolded through a Geisha house towards an unknown room. They call her the 'Nightingale' and her fellow women address her as Snow. There is one moment when she considers maybe it could have been better if she had chosen the nameless, faceless ANBU who they had offered. Who would have kept his mask on the entire time and she would have been supplied with a similar face protection.
But she disregards that because sex is a weapon and she believes Neji has trained her to use it as a razor sharp edge. Because what use is training with a nameless, faceless weapon who lacks control when compared to Neji, who she can now bend with one evening together. She can still feel his hands on her ribs, the power in his thighs, and the memory of his sex moving in hers.
She shivers in remembered delight before they pause outside one door and there is the sound of a soft knock and shoji sliding. She is gently led into the room and her escorts leave her alone as they exit. She reaches up to pull the blindfold off and the silk gives way to her strength easily.
She sees the target on his back as he lays on the futon in only a dark sleeping yutaka. She approaches with soft murmurs and gentle steps. She kneels down next to the futon and sits demurely, waiting to be acknowledged. There is a far too long silence and she reaches out with tender fingertips to find a pulse.
There is none.
Later when she is retrieved, the mission marked as completed, and flying back to the Leaf in Neji's arms, he breathes into her ear.
" Who do you think was the nameless ANBU they offered you?"
She allows herself a shiver in his arms.

Program 1
Neighborhood Revitalization
Our neighborhood revitalization program is one of the largest and most active programs of its type in the nation. Historic Macon Foundation invests in the acquisition, rehabilitation and sale of owner-occupied residences in transitional areas of Macon's historic districts to save entire historic neighborhoods intact, provide access to quality housing for people of all incomes, save the environment, raise property values, eliminate crime, improve aesthetics and create sustainable change that revitalizes our city.
Program long term success
Historic Macon Foundation has completed the construction of 140 buildings in Macon's historic districts, investing over $10 million, creating $9.5 million in additional property value, reducing crime by 50%-80%, creating 2,000 construction jobs and saving 20,000 tons of debris from the landfill. Each of these projects is now subject to conservation easements which will ensure their perpetual upkeep and preservation.
Program success monitored by
Our success is monitored by buildings preserved, neighborhoods stabilized, home ownership rates, neighborhood diversity, property tax values, jobs created, environmental savings, funds invested, crime abated and aesthetic improvements.
Program success examples
Over the 2010-2011 program year, half of the homes that we have sold have been sold to low- to moderate-income buyers with help from the City of Macon. These buyers were only able to become homeowners through Historic Macon's neighborhood revitalization programs.

Unwind takes a holistic approach to massage therapy, addressing your 'problem areas' – such as tight muscles, stiff joints, chronic pain, etc. – within the context of your whole body. Our intention is to integrate the whole body back into functional, pain-free movement.
Unwind's massage therapists are knowledgeable, well trained, and may use many different modalities during a massage.
The goal is to 'Unwind' the stuck spots, relax muscle tension, and regain functional movement without pain. To that end, we happily do treatment-focused work in 1-2 areas or a full body massage during each session.
Giving the gift of massage tells the recipient you care about their mind, body and soul. It's a gift of luxurious relaxation as well as therapeutic healing.

"I received a massage from Rebecca and it was awesome! I booked the appt at the last minute and was able to get into Unwind. Unwind is exactly what I did! Looking forward to another massage soon! Thank you again!"
"Debi has great understanding of the interplay of muscles and anatomy and uses her intuition to guide her knowledge. She quickly noticed misalignments which I hadn't mentioned and zeroed in on addressing that. This was my first visit and I received so much more from the hour session than I expected. Thank you very much, Debi!"
"Today was my first visit with Debi. She's an excellent massage therapist--healer seems more appropriate. I was in a car accident and experiencing pain. Immediately, I had relief from her massage. I'm thrilled to begin my healing journey with her. It goes without saying, that she has tons of personality and spunk! Thank you, Debi."

The Brief
Good quality local news is vital to our individual and societal wellbeing. Reputable, independent sources of local news are important for democratic engagement in our communities, provide a voice for community campaign, and connect people to the places where they live. However, the traditional model for local news is increasingly under threat.
Our Neighbourhood News project seeks to highlight the need for new business models and innovative approaches to delivering high quality local journalism.
We have supported five hyperlocal news organisations to deliver a local news project in their community, supported the development of a new directory of hyperlocal websites in the UK and Ireland, showcased the activities of innovative hyperlocals to support peer to peer learning, and are exploring ways to support the sustainability of hyperlocals in bringing a greater plurality of voices to the UK journalism sector.

Park operations, which are funded by the federal government at levels that
generally cover the expense of keeping the gates open, lights on and visitors

Sorry y'all, I don't agree with y'all appearance"
"Y'all buy that bullshit, you'd better keep y'all receipt
Obama said "chill, you gonna get me impeached"

Your story (MPs reveal £101m cost of two academies, October 17) was full of errors, including the claim that Bexley Academy cost nearly three times its estimate. You confused the cost of building it with the cost of building and running it. The public accounts committee report that you quote refers to four years of capital and running costs, not capital costs.
Bexley is a primary and secondary school, and its capital cost of £38.5m compares well. The average cost of a single secondary school with 1,300 pupils and a sixth-form in a high-cost area is £25-30m. Bexley's running costs would be the same as the school it replaced.
Also, the building cost of Unity Academy is £20.5m, not £43.6m. Finally, the combined capital cost of Bexley and Unity academies is £59m, not £101m.

Pensions savings have hit a record low as hard-up workers prioritise other payments above saving for their retirement.
The latest Scottish Widows pension report published today shows that only 46 per cent of people are now saving enough for retirement – five percentage points down on last year and a fall of eight percentage points from 2009.
Worryingly, more than one in five people – 22 per cent – have put nothing aside for later life. The drop in pension provision is widespread across age groups and income levels.
Yet aspirations for pension income have actually increased by £200 over the last 12 months. Based on this year's new low average savings level, a saver retiring at 65 would receive just over half the amount that they feel they need.
Ian Naismith, head of pensions market development at Scottish Widows, said: "These are alarming findings as UK pension provision has hit an all-time low."
Tom McPhail, head of pensions research at Hargreaves Lansdown, said workers must heed the warning in the report and start saving.
"The key message is that it pays to save, and that any delay just makes the hill steeper to climb," he warned. "Every pound of weekly saving a 30-year-old makes today will deliver around £3 of income in retirement. However a delay of just five years in starting to save would reduce that retirement income from £3 a week to £2 a week."
Mr Naismith said the new workplace pension scheme known as auto-enrolment could help reverse the trend when it's introduced later this year. "But we need a compelling government communications campaign to make clear the need to save for retirement."

ZOOT Prophet Women's WetZoot - $649.95
While we all need the same thing from a wetsuit on race-day, every maker of wetsuits approaches these objectives in different ways. Some will opt to power your kicks, while others concentrate on flexibility. And at the higher-end of spectrum, we find engineers placing with variable densities in order to positively effect buoyancy. However, while all of these technologies exist within the singular realm, it's increasingly rare to find them concentrated within one design. Note that we said 'rare' and not impossible. With the Zoot Prophet Women's WetZoot, all of these technologies are incorporated to provide a wetsuit that cuts through open water while preserving your energy for the following two legs of the race. First, let's start at the various compositions of neoprene that comprise the Prophet. In order to precisely blend buoyancy with flexibility, Zoot placed different densities of Yamamoto neoprene throughout the suit. So, the front body is comprised of 4.5mm layer of C39 Atmosphere neoprene. Why C39' Because it's the industry-leader in pairing stretch with buoyancy, and it has the second highest cell density of any neoprene on the market. In its construction, Yamamoto uses air cavities in order to both reduce weight and increase buoyancy. As a result, its placement and density at both the front and back panels increases lift to the core, opening up your body for the perfect stroke position in the water. However, you might be wondering why this lift is of importance' Well, just as sleek shapes minimize your drag coefficient on land, the wetsuit's level of buoyancy is the minimizing variable in the water. The supporting science behind this claim is fairly elementary -- water is around 1000 times denser than air, and it produces a potential drag coefficient 10 times that of air, as well. So, minimizing your body's submergence is vital to optimizing hydrodynamics. - $649.95


text: BOULDER, Colo., April 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp. today celebrates the eighth anniversary of on-orbit operations for the CloudSat and Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) Earth science satellites. The company designed and built the CloudSat spacecraft bus and the CALIPSO instrument that launched April 28, 2006 to join the constellation of spacecraft called the "A-Train," dedicated to studying the Earth's weather and environment."The innovative Earth science provided by these two missions has been felt on a global scale," said Jim Oschmann, Vice President and General Manager for Ball's Civil Space and Technology business unit. "The longevity of both spacecraft demonstrate Ball's significant track record for high reliability missions on a cost-constrained budget." Under contract to NASA Langley Research Center, Ball was responsible for two scientific instruments, the communications suite and integrating the payload for CALIPSO, the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder and Satellite Observations mission. Ball's lidar (light detection and ranging) instrument provides accurate, high resolution, vertical profiles of clouds and aerosols while the Wide Field camera provides a large scale view of the atmosphere. Working jointly with a third instrument supplied by the French Centre National D'Etude Spatiales (CNES) these instruments enable improved predictions of climate change, aerosol 3-D structure and air quality. The CALIPSO lasers have generated more than four billion pulses to help scientists understand how clouds and aerosols affect Earth's climate.

There's always a fan doing some funny shit at an American football game, but this guy takes the biscuit, and the announcers couldn't handle it.
The Virginia Cavaliers fan decided to take a model goose to the game, then duet with it to Journey's 'Don't Stop Believing' during the fourth quarter break.
The resulting footage is quite comical, but the two game announcers found it HILARIOUS. American football always delivers.
Then, shortly after the clip went viral on Reddit, in classic Reddit fashion came this conversation underneath the video:

Shift: Attempted Capture
I was flying home, then i realised these men, walking out of Carries house, i didnt like the look of the scientist, not one bit. So i decided to spy on them, from afar, or close up when i felt like it, i switch forms multiple times to avoid suspicion, they only walked several meters away from Carries house, until the scientist told them to stop. He looked up at me, and said in a very hasty voice "Shoot it!"
They attempted to shoot me, not realising im pretty much bullet-proof. There entire town could probably here those gun shots then the scientist, got his gun out.
"This is how its done" he says, then shoots me with a tranquilizer, i was downed in one shot, he got me right in the head. I stumbled down onto the ground with a large thud. I was on a rooftop, so i was fine for the moment. The tranquilzier needed time to go into effect so i had time to run. Seeing as i fell onto the rooftops I had to run over them. The tranquilizer seemed to have disabled my powers, i couldnt shift, i just hope to hell they didnt take my bullet-proof power, other wise im doomed.
But then i felt really dowsy and fell off a roof, and landed in front of it, i smashed my head into the window, it seemed to have broke. I then rushed in to then collapse onto a very familiar feeling couch...

CommentaryMatthew Henry Commentary
5:16-22 We are to rejoice in creature-comforts, as if we rejoiced not, and must not expect to live many years, and rejoice in them all; but if we do rejoice in God, we may do that evermore. A truly religious life is a life of constant joy. And we should rejoice more, if we prayed more. Prayer will help forward all lawful business, and every good work. If we pray without ceasing, we shall not want matter for thanksgiving in every thing. We shall see cause to give thanks for sparing and preventing, for common and uncommon, past and present, temporal and spiritual mercies. Not only for prosperous and pleasing, but also for afflicting providences, for chastisements and corrections; for God designs all for our good, though we at present see not how they tend to it. Quench not the Spirit. Christians are said to be baptized with the Holy Ghost and with fire. He worketh as fire, by enlightening, enlivening, and purifying the souls of men. As fire is put out by taking away fuel, and as it is quenched by pouring water, or putting a great deal of earth upon it; so we must be careful not to quench the Holy Spirit, by indulging carnal lusts and affections, minding only earthly things. Believers often hinder their growth in grace, by not giving themselves up to the spiritual affections raised in their hearts by the Holy Spirit. By prophesyings, here understand the preaching of the word, the interpreting and applying the Scriptures. We must not despise preaching, though it is plain, and we are told no more than what we knew before. We must search the Scriptures. And proving all things must be to hold fast that which is good. We should abstain from sin, and whatever looks like sin, leads to it, and borders upon it. He who is not shy of the appearances of sin, who shuns not the occasions of it, and who avoids not the temptations and approaches to it, will not long keep from doing sin.

A Relief!
"What's wrong?" Mathew came in and saw me staring at him, my eyes wide and pleading. I couldn't speak, not with the tape over my mouth, but I could definitely stare. I was, after all, the girl who could outstare cats. "You look a little frantic."
"I need the loo!" I tried to murmur, but the tape muffled my words so that he could not understand. He just looked confused, even when I repeated myself. At last my eyes seemed to do the trick, for he pulled the tape from my mouth. "Please let me go to the toilet!" I said, as soon as I could speak.
Mathew looked relieved, and then surprised, and then he laughed. "Oh, is that what you were trying to say? I couldn't understand a word of it. Yes, of course you can. I'm sorry, I hadn't actually thought of that." He untied me and led me out of the kitchen, down a long corridor. I hadn't seen anything of his house but my bare surroundings, so I was intrigued to see what it looked like, but most of the corridor was uninteresting and anyway, I was too desperate to pee to really examine the few things of interest. "Here we go. This door on the right. No funny business."
Funny business? I gaped at him as I ran in and shut the door. I wasn't even thinking about trying to escape. My entire mind was focused on one thing - I had to go to the toilet, before everything went very wrong. I didn't even care that I hadn't managed to lock the door, because I didn't think he was the sort of person that would come in.
In books they always talk about people 'relieving' themselves. I've never understood what that meant until then - I always thought it was just a turn of phrase. But if they were anything like as desperate as I was that day, it's perfectly understandable that the chance to go to the loo would be a relief. When I came out I felt much better. I must have looked it, too, because Mathew said, "You're looking more cheerful now. Are you hungry?"
"Yes," I said, suspicious. "Why did you leave me for so long? Why didn't you finish your story?" I wanted to know what he meant. "You could have just told me there and then."
"I had a couple of things I needed to sort out," he replied, smiling down. "Don't worry, you'll find out everything soon. But I expect you're faint with hunger, for it's been a while. Come and sit down and I'll get you something to eat."
"Something" turned out to be a steaming bowl of the best soup I'd ever tasted. I'd been a little worried for I wasn't known as an adventurous eater and besides, I didn't think much of the oven (by now, I knew it very well), but mathew turned out to be a pretty good cook. It didn't seem like a recipe I'd tried before and he didn't cook it on the hob.
"How did you make this?" I asked him, staring at it. "On such a little camping stove, you can make first-class grub?"
Mathew laughed. "A compliment indeed! Well, let's just say I learned a long time ago. I never got the hang of modern cooking utensils." He pointed to the oven. "Jon keeps trying to teach me, but it's not working."
"Does Jon teach you, too?" I said incredulously. Jon was my instructor, but I couldn't imagine him teaching someone of Mathew's age.
