2nd day hiking in Sapa
We woke today to another wet start but some of the fog had cleared slightly and we could see a nearby mountain but nothing in the distance. Thang arrived at 09:30 as scheduled and today we had a couple of friends join us (from Scotland and Czech) and a guy from Melbourne of Vietnamese/Chinese origins, Alex.
We told Thang that Daisy was worried about how her knees would cope but he said it was easy today nearly all downhill. He ...
First day hiking in Sapa
Train arrived at 5:30 to the Lao Cai station which was quite modern looking and once outside there were scores of drivers holding up cards with names and eventually we found ours. It was a one hour drive up the mountain to Sapa and I was thankful our mini-bus was full because it meant that we were the ones being overtaken. Trying to overtake on that windy mountain road is not something I would like to do. Everything is very well organised and ...
Sapa day two
We woke up early for a private tour of the north of Sapa with a H'muong lady named Co. She is part of one of the minority groups in Sapa. It was a brilliant tour and very informative. She told us all about her culture and lifestyle and wanted to know about ours. She mentioned different rituals and traditions. When they get married they wear their hair up and wear many big earrings. She spoke of another tribe the Red Zao that ...

If you have had enough of the chinese cultures in Jianshui, but have a few more days to spare, you can take a trip out of town to MengZi (蒙自), the next city some 100+ km away to the East.

... pains by the end, but I used my medical knowledge to diagnose muscular strain rather that a heart attack.
On the finished side of the bridge, workmen looked at us as if we were aliens, having no idea where we had come from. Mikey told them to hurry up building their bloody bridge and they laughed. They indicated that we could make it to a tiny village 12 miles from Manhao, but couldn't tell us what happened after that. We could at least see there was another ...

This is the prologue of a short story I am in the middle of writing. I originally wrote it at a camp two years ago, but I decided to bring it back to life and deepen the story and characters. It is about a girl who lives in a futuristic time with endless wars. She has been living alone for years, until she meets a little girl who makes her smile again. But on the way to the market, she disappears, and never again will she see that little girl's face.
When I awoke from my restless sleep, I was greeted with the sounds of sirens and screams. The room around me was cold and bare, with only the stiff mattress I slept on and a few piles of clothes that I wore alternately. I didn't waste time, so I changed into brown capris and a white shirt. My eyes lingered on the window on the wall opposite of door. I looked hollow and hungry, with sunken eyes and a pale complexion. It's been three years since my parents died, two since they took my sister away. I've been living in this empty house every since, selling our belongings and doing anything to earn money to keep myself alive.
I pressed my fingers to the glass and peered down on the streets below. There was a handful of panicking people bolting to the doors of nearby homes, banging on them and begging for others to let them in. What were they so scared of? I glanced up at the dark, smoky sky. I remember when it was a bright blue and filled with puffy white clouds, but only in glimpses and distant memories.
Soon, I left my room without closing the door, and headed towards the stairs. The walls around me used to be filled with colorful paintings. My father was an artist. But in order to buy food and clothes, and pay for water and other necessities, all those had to be sold. When he died, it was as if the paintings had lost their brilliance, and I couldn't stand to look at them anymore.
As I reached the bottom floor shivers ran up my spine. The concrete felt like ice against my skin. I scrambled to the door where I kept my boots and snatched the rolled up socks out of them, pulling them over my feet, followed by the worn, leather boots that were my only pair of shoes. I laced them tight and walked to the colorless kitchen, opening the cupboard to find a loaf of bread and a bowl of cheese wrapped in plastic. I placed both onto the cracked countertop, and grabbed the knife out of the drawer below. After tugging off a piece of bread, I cut a thin slice of cheese and began to eat my breakfast.
I tried to savor every bite, but it didn't last long and soon my hands were empty. I had to resist taking a second serving, because this had to last until the shops opened up again.
My hands yanked the old windbreaker from the single chair at the table with chipped paint. I slid my arms through the sleeves and zipped it up, heading towards the door. I hated being in this house more than I had to. To hell with bombs and rockets, I didn't care if I died anymore.
As I reached for the doorknob someone knocked on the door. I took a breath and pulled it open to see and terrified little girl shaking and stumbling over her words. She was covered in dirt and had a look of horror in her eyes. I shook away the sympathy on my face and slammed the door in front of her, stepping back inside the house. My breathing became loud. Should I leave her there? To stand in the middle of that horrible street? I knew what the people in the neighborhood thought of me. I was the girl who never cried. Not even when her parents died, or when her sister was stolen out of her life. The one who disgraced her family's memory by selling everything that reminded her of them.
I could turn a cold shoulder to her, just as everyone else did to me. But I couldn't. In front of me, something so small and so fragile, so innocent, was asking for help. I haven't gotten much sympathy, but this little girl wasn't part of that. When I opened the door, I was surprised to see her still standing there, with looks of relief and teary eyes when I motioned her to come in. I set aside some food for her, asked her where her parents were. Her name was Lily. She had been separated from them, and so I promised I'd let her stay until we found them. It was comforting to have company in this sullen house. To talk to and be with. She reminded me of my sister.
Before I knew it, five days had passed and we were both starving. It was market day, thankfully, so I told her to stay put while I went out for an hour or two. When I left, she wore a look of worry, afraid that once I left I wouldn't come back. I reassured her gently, and passed through the door. I didn't know that she was right.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - April 14, 1985, New Braunfels, Texas New Braunfels Herald-Zmtung Sunday, April 14,1985 9A NB finishes second in Austin AUSTIN — When the rains came to wash away the final five events of the South Austin Relays, New Braunfels found itself in second place while Canyon was cut down short. The Unicorns finished the shortened meet with 84 points, just shy of Travis, which won the meet with 91 points. "Last year we had 89 points as our total," said New Braunfels Coach Lew Simmonds. ''This is the first time our kids have been really excited about heading into the district meet." The Unicorns started off strong in the field events, with Kenan Ikels and John Bryan finishing 1-2 in the pole vault. Ikels cleared 13-6 for the win. Kraig Krause won the shot put with an effort of 53-1134. Mike Sullivan finished third for New Braunfels with a throw of 51-5*6. In the discus, Brett Fey finished second with a throw of 1484) while Krause finished third with a throw of 137-4. Mike Payne won the 3,200 race with a time of 9:52.04, with Hector Hernandez and Efren Mak-donado finishing third and fourth for the Unicorns. ''I was very encouraged with our two milers," Simmonds said. David DeLemos placed second in the 100-meter dash with a time of 10.7. Stephen Millett finished fifth with a time of 11.2. "We came out of this with exactly what we wanted," Simmonds said. "We scored some points, were competitive, and got ready for district." The rain proved especially costly to Canyon, as the Cougars' best events were washed away. "We had our strengths coming up when it started to pour," said Canyon Coach David Simmons. "We ran well, though. We had some personal bests in some events and didn't even get to run in the finals." The meet was called off just before the 400-meter run because of the heavy rains. Both Ben Garcia and Brian Row had qualified for the finals in the event. "That race really would have helped us," Simmons said. "Just as the race was about to start, it really started coming down. But there was too much to lose by running the race in something like that." Garcia placed fifth in the long jump with a 20-434 effort. Todd Banks placed fifth in the high jump with an effort of 5-10. The Cougars' 400 relay team finished fifth with a time of 44.19. Snappy Unicorns rally to trip Antlers, 6-4 I / TV DfRviCLARK herald zeitung Armando Martinez strides to the plate in an earlier game KERRVILLE - New Braunfels rallied with three runs in the top of the seventh to defeat Kerrville Tivy 6-4 Friday night in a District 13-4A baseball game. The Unicorns, now 2-1 in district play and 13-4 on the season, led 3-0 before the Antlers came up with four runs in the bottom of the sixth. "I feel like we escaped," New Braunfels Coach Peter Garza said. "The kids were trying, you have to give them credit for that." Tivy's rally came against starter Bobby Tristan and reliever Armando Martinez, who was credited with the victory. The Antlers had scored one run and had runners at first and third when Martinez took over for Tristan. Martinez promptly gave up a two-run double, and the runner advanced to third on a bad relay throw. Tivy squeezed in the fourth run of the inning to take its short-lived lead. Antler starter Bryce Brown hit Don Duncan and Tomas Juarez with pitches to start the seventh, and then Russell Han-smann was safe on a bunt to load the bases. leadoff man David Cadded hit a high chopper that was misplayed for a run-scoring error, and then a passed ball gave New Braunfels a 5-4 lead. Eddie Cantu was thrown out trying to bunt, and the Tivy first baseman thought the inning was over. As he jogged to the dugout, Hans ma nn scored. "It was a heck of a turn of events," Gerza said.

With Tristan at second, the Tivy second baseman made a diving catch on the right-field line. Tristan tagged up and advanced to third, and when the throw to third was wild, he scored. "It was the same problem as before; the bottom part of the order had a hard time hitting the bad," Garza said. "But we managed a few hits, and they made a few mistakes to go with them. ' ' New Braunfels returns home Tuesday for a 7:30 p.m. game against Fredericksburg. This week in baseball SV's Copenhavier may return Friday NB, Canyon to host 13-4A golf, tennis By DAVID KING Sports editor The possible return of one of the county's leading home-run hitters and the meat of the District 13-IA schedule are in store this week in local baseball action.

"Danny did a heck of a job till he ran out of gas," Behrend said. "He's good for two or three innings. ' ' Hernandez, Canyon's relief man, had thrown three innings before starting the seventh. Hays mugged Campbell with two doubles to take a 1-0 lead in the first, but Cappleinan gave Canyon the lead when he mashed a fastball from starter Eddie Salazar over the scoreboard in left field. Canyon made it 3-1 in the second when Chapa, who was 2-for-3, blooped single to left, stole second and came home on Hernandez' double to deep left-center.

Barry Jaroszewski of A.L. Williams Co., said the center should be open 12 to 14 months after the construction has been started. "I think this town really needs something like this," Jaroszewski said. "I think its going to be something that can turn this town around." Plans for the center, which will be housed in a 30,000 square foot building, include six racquetball courts, a basketball court, a 50-meter lap pool, a whirlpool, saunas, steam rooms, a restaurant and lounge, tanning booths and a jogging track on the roof. The center, called "Total Fitness," will also offer classes such as rythmic aerobics, scuba diving, water babies swimming, body building and self-defense. The proposed location for the facilities is on 1650 Old McQueeney Road, in Executive Park. Jaroszewski said the center will be open at hours which will be convenient to a wide variety of people. "We'll open at six morning so that people will be able to come in and have a workout, take a shower, grab a bite to eat and then go into work," he said. The center will be open until ll p.m. Monday through Saturday and will be open from 9 a.m. until IO p.m. on Sundays. Another feature which will make the center accessible to more people will be a nursery, Jaroszewski said. "Housewives who have kids can come in and leave the kids in the nursery, go work out, then take the kids for a swim before going home. The kids will love it and the swimming will be a year-round thing," he said. A large part of the fitness program will be the classes offered, Jaroszewski said. "We'll have classes for aerobics and jazzercise and self-defense courses,' he said. "We can have as many type classes as you can think of. "We'll have body-building classes because that is really becoming popular. Women are really getting into body-building." Jaroszewski said he has been working on the project for more than a year, and has had the idea for a long time. "I've always wanted to do this. I've had it in the back of my mind for a while. I've been working on it for a year and two months and I've put a lot into it. I'm going to get the doors open one way or another," he said. Track results.

NEW YORK -- If you ask Ichiro Suzuki, his baserunning heroics on Sunday weren't "anything special."
But they meant everything to the Yankees.
With the Bombers staring down the reality of an embarrassing sweep at the hands of the Red Sox, Suzuki came up huge.
He singled with one out in the ninth, stole second, went to third on a tag-up and scored on a wild pitch to give New York a gift 4-3 win.
According to Elias, Ichiro's run gave the Yankees their first walk-off win on a wild pitch since Sept. 27, 1977, when Thurman Munson scored on a wild pitch.
"Really big," Joe Girardi said.
But it was bigger than that.
The victory helped the Yankees keep pace in the wild-card race. They began the series against the Red Sox on Thursday 2½ games back of the second wild-card spot. And, somehow, despite losing three of four to Boston, they will be no more than 2½ games back of that second wild-card spot when they wake up on Monday.
"We needed it," Girardi said of Sunday's win. "Because we had some pretty tough games in the last few days, and you want to finish the homestand right."
Make no mistake: With just 17 games to play, the Yankees still have plenty of ground to make up if they want to get in the playoffs.
But the task is a little less daunting thanks to Suzuki's stellar baserunning on Sunday.
His winning scamper also let Mariano Rivera off the hook.
Rivera allowed a game-tying homer in the ninth inning to Will Middlebrooks while attempting to convert a two-inning save. It was Rivera's seventh blown save of the season, his highest total since 2001.
But Mo's meltdown turned into a footnote thanks to Suzuki, who scored the winning run with ease courtesy of a wild pitch from Boston reliever Brandon Workman.
"If I had an opportunity, I was going to take it," Suzuki said. "It wasn't anything special."
There are a few guys in the Yankees' clubhouse who'd probably disagree with Suzuki on that.

Ed Fox sent one of his test shots from the SFMC 'Garage' shoot.... now I'm kind of glad I couldn't take photos with my little Canon digital Elph! The lighting accentuates the 'landscape' of the Norton, and if you click on the photo, you can read the engine number on the crankcase...and the bike is shockingly clean for not having been washed since the Legends show in '06 (yes, it was ridden since then).
My project for this winter is to remove the wheels and rebuild them using the period-correct 21" rims front and rear, which of course means new fenders and stays...but at least the bike won't bottom out so easily when I push it into the truck. It will also lighten the 'feel' when riding.

Hiya Paul. Now THAT is my dream Sunbeam. The early longstrokes with the dummy rim brakes look so lithe and purposeful. If only I could find one, and find the cash to purchase it!

(Spoiler alert: Please do not read on if you haven't watched Tuesday's episode of "The People vs. O.J. Simpson")
About halfway into tonight's episode of "The People vs. O.J. Simpson," Marcia Clark turns away from the white Bronco chase on television and asks a very good question.
"How is O.J. back in his white Bronco?" the prosecutor, played by Sarah Paulson, asks. "I mean, the Bronco was full of blood. We impounded it. How could he be driving it again?"
"Believe it or not, there are two white Broncos," Det. Tom Lange (played by Chris Bauer) replies. "A.C. Cowlings worships O.J. so much he bought the identical car."

"Unbelievable," Clark says.
Welcome back to O.J. Fact Check, in which TheWrap looks into the accuracy of FX's captivating ten-part series. "O.J. Simpson" is not intended as docudrama, but there's enough truth to it that it's hard to tell what's true and what isn't. Today's question:
Ridiculously, yes.
Clark's question is included in the episode to inform us that a) she is very smart and b) the show's writers are also very smart.
If you watch the 21-year-old coverage of the real chase (see above), you'll notice that newscasters refer to the white Bronco simply as Simpson's vehicle. They just assume.

Hell: I was one of the many Angelenos — let me rephrase that — I was one of the every single Angelenos — who watched the chase in 1994. And we all just assumed it was O.J.'s Bronco. No one I've ever known has stopped to ask if the Bronco was the same one found parked outside Simpson's house on the night his ex-wife and her friend were murdered. We just assumed.
We assumed wrong.
O.J.'s Bronco — the one parked outside his house, with the blood, had the license plate number 3CWZ788. Jeffrey Toobin's "The Run of His Life," which inspired the FX miniseries, tells us that Cowlings' Bronco had the license plate number 3DHY503. The Bronco featured in the miniseries has a different license number to either Simpson's or Cowlings' Broncos, because it's Hollywood.
Toobin's book also reports that when detectives first checked the plates for Simpson's Bronco, on the night of the killings, "they came back to the Hertz Corporation, whose products Simpson had long endorsed." Additionally, the real-life witness on the show who saw the Bronco racing from the direction of the murder scene on the night of the murders remembered the license number, though she was slightly off.
As "This American Life" discovered, Simpson later went on to pretend to sell Broncos for a long-forgotten hidden-camera show.
So what became of Cowling's Bronco? USA Today has the whole story.
Both white Broncos had their own owners, and their own fascinating journeys.
Chris Bauer, the actor who plays Lange, just appeared in a Super Bowl ad featuring another highway chase.
'The People v. O.J. Simpson': Where Are They Now? (Photos)
Here's what happened to main players like O.J. Simpson, Johnnie Cochran, Robert Kardashian and Marcia Clark after the "Trial of the Century" ended
"See: "'PeopleO.J. Simpson Orenthal James Simpson, known as O.J., was a Heisman Trophy winner and record-breaking professional football player. He was accused of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown-Simpson and Ronald Goldman in 1994. He was acquitted of all criminal charges in 1995. In 1997, a jury found him civilly liable for their deaths and issued a $33.5 million judgment against him. In 2007, Simpson was arrested on armed robbery and kidnapping charges stemming from an incident in Las Vegas in which he and several other men accosted a sports-memorabilia dealer who Simpson claims stole several of his personal belongings. In 2008, Simpson was sentenced to 33 years in prison, with parole eligibility after nine years.
"Also: "'PeopleCuba Gooding Jr. will play Simpson in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story." Johnnie Cochran Johnnie Cochran Jr. worked for both the Los Angeles City Attorney and the Los Angeles County District Attorney before establishing the Johnnie L. Cochran Jr. Law Firm in the 1980s. He was well known for his work in civil rights and police brutality cases even prior to the events of the O.J. Simpson trial. He went on to defend several other high-profile clients, including Sean "Diddy" Combs on weapons charges in 2001. Cochran retired after that case and died from a brain tumor in 2005. Courtney B.

"Also: "'TheRobert Kardashian Robert Kardashian was a lawyer, businessman and friend of O.J. Simpson. He and Simpson became friends in the 1970s and went into business together, operating Juice Inc.

David Schwimmer will play Kardashian in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story."

Jenner came out as a transgender woman following their divorce in 2014. She currently appears on "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" alongside her kids. Selma Blair will play Kris in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story."
"See: "'AmericanRobert Shapiro Robert Shapiro was a well-known defense attorney before he joined Simpson's defense team. He successfully defended athletes like Darryl Strawberry, Jose Canseco and Vince Coleman. He was well known for settling cases before they ever went to trial. Following the events of the Simpson case, Shapiro moved more into the civil litigation arena. He also went on to co-found LegalZoom.com and ShoeDazzle.com John Travolta will play Shapiro in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story." Marcia Clark Marcia Clark was a prosecutor for the District Attorney of Los Angeles County. Following the events of the Simpson case, she went on to publish a book about her experience during the trial with Teresa Carpenter called "Without a Doubt."
"Also: "'TheClark also appeared as a special correspondent for "Entertainment Tonight" and various other news outlets to offer her opinion on legal matters. Sarah Paulson will portray Clark in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story." Christopher Darden Christopher Darden was a prosecutor in the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office, who was chosen to assist Clark during the O.J. Simpson trial, despite his relative lack of trial experience at the time. Darden was criticized for what were seen as mistakes during the trial, including asking Simpson to try on the bloody glove found at the murder scene. After the trial, he left the DA's office and took a teaching position. He is a published author and a television legal commentator. Sterling K. Brown will play Darden in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story." Nicole Brown Simpson Nicole Brown first met O.J. Simpson in 1977, while she was working as a waitress at a Los Angeles night club. Simpson was married at the time, but the two began dating, eventually marrying in 1985. They had two children, Sydney and Justin. O.J. Simpson pleaded no contest to spousal abuse charges in 1989, and the couple divorced in 1992.
"Also: "O.J.Nicole Brown Simpson was brutally murdered along with her friend Ronald Goldman on June 12, 1994. O.J. was charged with her murder but was acquitted of all criminal charges in 1995. Kelly Dowdle will play her in "People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story." Gil Garcetti Gil Garcetti was a prosecutor for the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office before being elected to the position of District Attorney in 1992. His first term in office was largely dominated by the O.J. Simpson trial. Garcetti was re-elected in 1996 but lost another bid in 2000. He has published several books of his own photography and taught a seminar on law at Harvard University. His son Eric Garcetti was elected Mayor of Los Angeles in 2013. Bruce Greenwood will play Garcetti in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story." Faye Resnick Faye Resnick was a friend of Nicole Brown Simpson. The two socialized together around the Brentwood neighborhood in Los Angeles beginning in the early 1990s. She stayed in Nicole Brown Simpson's condo just days prior to the murders but left to enter drug rehab three days before the killings. After the events of the trial, Resnick collaborated with authors for two books on her experience during the Simpson case and murder trial. She has also appeared on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" and "Keeping Up With the Kardasians."
"Also: "'AmericanConnie Britton will play Resnick in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story." Al "A.C." Cowlings Al "A.C." Cowlings was a professional football player and good friends with his former teammate O.J. Simpson. Cowlings was pulled into the murder investigation when he led police on a low-speed chase in his white Ford Bronco with Simpson as his passenger. The chase ended at Simpson's mansion, after which Cowlings was arrested. Gil Garcetti declined to prosecute Cowlings, however, and he distanced himself from the Simpson case thereafter.
"Also: "'TheMalcolm-Jamal Warner will play Cowlings in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story." Det. Mark Fuhrman Mark Fuhrman was the LAPD homocide detective who investigated the deaths and discovered the bloody glove that would serve as a key piece of evidence in the case. His behavior during the case led to accusations of racism and planting evidence in addition to a perjury conviction. Fuhrman went on to write the bestselling book "Murder in Brentwood" about the case, as well as a series of true crime novels. He also serves as a forensic expert for Fox News. Steven Pasquale will play Mark Furhman in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story."
"Also: "JohnJudge Lance Ito Lance Ito, the Los Angeles Superior Court judge who presided over the 1995 trial, made the controversial ruling allowing cameras in the courtroom, changing the way future criminal cases in the United States would be covered by the media. After the conclusion of Simpson's eight-month-long trial, Ito continued to serve as a judge in the Los Angeles judicial system, presiding over more than 500 cases before retiring in 2015. Kenneth Choi will play Lance Ito in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story." Brian "Kato" Kaelin Kato Kaelin was staying in Simpson's guest house when the murders occurred, making him one of the prosecution's key witnesses. Kaelin's California-surfer persona made him one of the most famous faces from the trial. Kaelin has since gone on to a few small TV guest spots, a string of reality show appearances and a new sports talk show called "Sports Haters," which will stream on FilmOn. Billy Magnussen will play Kato Kaelin in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story."
"Also: "'AmericanDenise Brown Denise Brown testified extensively about the abuse that her sister, Nicole, suffered at the hands of O.J. Simpson. She also founded the Nicole Brown Charitable Foundation to support victims of domestic violence. Brown continues to run the foundation and works as an advocate and public speaker.

The two leading entertainment icons in black America are probably Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry. Both of these people, by choosing to own their entities rather than rent their talents out to someone else, are among the richest entertainers in all of Hollywood. The two are forming a natural partnership that allows them to make money with their programming, and it's all coming to a television set near you.
Looks like Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey are already off to a good start with their partnership for her television network OWN.
Two months after striking a deal to collaborate on scripted content for the channel, Perry has announced two series that will launch on OWN in mid-2013—one a sitcom and the other a drama.
The comedy, "Love Thy Neighbor" is set in Love's Diner, where every day the menu serves up good food, great laughs, valuable life lessons and a lot of love for its zany neighbors.

Was I the only one to notice that he was fermenting S04 at 16*C?
S04 can be known for stalling early and floccing out, especially at low temperatures. I see no issue fermenting at 16* at the start but I would be warming it up as it starts to slow down, probably up to 21*. At this point I would be warming it up to say 23* and swirling (not splashing) the fermenter to rouse the yeast or racking as described in the bottom of my post. The first part of the fermentation process is where most of the esters and yeast derived flavours come from and warming it up at the end doesn't tend to change or add to the yeast character to any appreciable degree as long as you don't go overboard.
Hey Black_labb is it ok to raise s05 up to 21* for the last couple of days of fermentation? I currently have two brews going simultaneously one s04 and one s05. They have been brewing around 16* for the first 4 days of fermentation and now I was going to turn up to 21* in regards to what you said about s04. I think in the future I will only brew with one type of yeast at a time, I didn't realise the temperature could have such an effect on the yeasts productivity. They put such large temperature ranges on the packets!

Market turmoil, ash, storms cloud Cannes festival
By Mike Collett-White
LONDON (Reuters) - The Cannes film festival brings its usual mix of obscure movie makers and Hollywood royalty this year, though for all the glamour and fun, financial turmoil will take some of the gloss off the world's top cinema showcase.
And following a last-minute clean-up operation in the French Riviera resort due to storms last week, organizers will now be fretting over travel disruptions as flights over other parts of Europe have again been grounded by volcanic ash.
The festival opens on Wednesday with the premiere of "Robin Hood" starring Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett, a typically grandiose opening to an event that also champions gritty films from every corner of the globe made on shoestring budgets.
For the following 11 days, the famous and not-so-famous will walk and watch the red carpet, test their stamina at party after party, cram into darkened screening rooms and scour the giant film market for bargains.
While studio bosses in the glitzy resort may ponder the state of the broader economy and what it means for film financing, some of the biggest names in the business see Cannes as a vital cog in the marketing machine.
"Cannes is good for the film," said director Oliver Stone, who brings his sequel to the 1987 financial drama "Wall Street" to the festival.
"It's a big break because we would have come out and just been another film in this crazed (movie) mainstream," he told Reuters in an interview. "It's nice to have the honor and have that platform."
"Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps," in which Michael Douglas reprises his role as ruthless corporate raider Gordon Gekko, will be among the most topical at the 2010 festival, focusing on corruption and greed at the world's biggest banks. Continued...

Like "Frost / Nixon?" Try ....
"Frost / Nixon," an Oscar nominee for best picture, is an entertaining film elevated by a riveting performance from best actor nominee Frank Langella ... who probably will not win the Oscar.
Langella is a veteran character actor who has appeared in countless films, including the little seen "Starting Out in the Evening," which was never widely shown, but his performance in it briefly stirred Oscar talk in 2007.
He plays a reclusive author who has fallen out of favor who is being stalked by a grad student who wants to write his autobiography. It's worth checking out if only for Langella's performance.
I'd post the trailer, but for some reason the coding to embed it on the blog tool it is disabled.

There's just something ironic in this story.
This is a discussion on NYC Landlord Tells ATF Inspector No Firearms Allowed within the The Second Amendment & Gun Legislation Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; I currently reside within a DHCR regulated building in New York, NY. My apartment was originally occupied by my Grandmother then it went in succession ...
I currently reside within a DHCR regulated building in New York, NY. My apartment was originally occupied by my Grandmother then it went in succession to my Father and many years later to me. My Fathers military records from the Vietnam era are addressed here just to give you an idea of the amount of time my family has occupied the space.
Several years ago before I took over the lease the building was sold to a new owner. Although I did not reside here for the duration I moved in at a much later date which was still enough time to allow me to receive succession from my Father.
I have a standard front & back page DHCR lease with no additional provisions attached. My Fathers previous leases have zeros in that section of his old leases as well. I am currently in possession of the appropriate firearms permit(s) / license(s) from the NYPD to possess firearms. I recently applied for a FFL01 & C&R from the ATF.
The property owner did not state that I could not legally conduct my business but he told the investigator that "I am not allowed to possess firearms in my premises" although there are no such provisions in my lease. Being a renewal lease I was not given any attachments stating that it was a provision in the "original" lease signed by my Grandmother at a time when in my opinion there would have been no reason to include such a provision.
I'm communicating with the NYC Council now to determine if my business complies with a professional office which is a permitted use. As I am an internet based business (no retail sales).
I want to challenge this as an illegal arbitrary & capricious statement that has no legal standing in regards to my first two year renewal lease contract which I signed that went into effect on 06.01.2009 as he did not include any such firearm restriction policy.
As per the NYPD Commanding Officer of the Licensing Division the landlord cannot prohibit me but I need that in writing.
Statement on the back of DHCR renewal lease. http://www.dhcr.state.ny.us/Forms/Rent/rtp8.pdf
Before you complete and sign PART B and return this Renewal Lease Form, be sure to check that all lawful provisions and written agreements have been attached by the owner to this Form. Please read all attachments carefully. If such other lawful provisions appear, they are part of this lease renewal offer and renewal lease. If there are any lawful agreements between you and the owner, attached copies must be signed by both parties.
There's just something ironic in this story.

In order to obtain a FFL you need a place of business and a business license, Almost every incorporated town or city has zoning regulations. Some types of home occupations are permitted by most local zoning regulations. These types of businesses might include specific types of professional home office such as architect, engineer or accountant. Often there will be a stipulation that the professional office cannot have more than one employee. There may also be a list of prohibited types of home business.
You will need to study the NYC zoning code first to make certain that a home occupation can be used for retail firearms sales. You mentioned Internet sales. Some cities actually regulate what types of Internet business can be conducted from a home based business.
It is not at all unusual for a retail storefront to be zoned for a firearms business but the landlord will not allow that type of business.
ATF does not regulate where you operate your firearms business from, only that it is in conformance with all local codes regulations and ordnances.
The landlord may not have the right to deny you from keeping a firearm(s) for personal use in your apartment but may be able to deny you from operating a home business of any type.
Apply for a small business license. State the nature of the business and the city should be able to tell you if it conforms. It is some times possible to obtain a license for a conditional use.
It would seem that you might also be able to talk to your landlord. Find out what his concerns are. He may be concerned about his liability. He may also be anti-firearm.
If you understand, things are just as they are... If you do not understand, things are just as they are....

As far as the FFL01 i've contacted members of the Zoning board on the NYC Council requesting clarification of an internet based business but the ATF investigator stated that I could aquire a seperate office address. They're called Virtual Offices out here or shared office space so I did but I'm still waiting on the final word from the ATF.
You can view my attached lease regulations as well as my letters to ATF and the NYC Council.
[ATF Letter] [NYC Council]
ATF does a complete and through investigation. Two things they always check for is a valid place of business and approval of CLEO.
I have a questions for you. Suppose you win your case with the landlord. Will he terminate your lease when it is due for renewal?
I was also going to mention the possibility of operating from another location. Any place you can park a computer at can server as your place of business providing local zoning approves it.
Over 1,000,000 people operate home occupations in NYC. As with any home business, what zoning does not want is a lot of extra traffic. They won't allow some types of consulting businesses where clients are coming and going all the time. The other thing they usually have a problem with is too many deliveries. They don't want FedEx and UPS picking up and delivering every day. They may grant you a conditional license but it might have some stipulations such as no inventory of any sort may be stored. This would include ammo and firearms.
NYC CLEO might also have something to say about your business too. Do they act as point of contact for background checks when buying a firearm or does it go through NICS? Did they wet finger print you for your FFL application? They might tell you that you need a secure safe. ATF does not care. What Securing a firearm means to ATF is to make sure that you have about a dozen or so extra cable locks on hand all the time.
I would also get some additional clarification from BATFE regarding what they told you about a virtual office. There is no such thing. In fact multiple sites need to be permitted separately. When you enter an order from you computer to purchase a firearm it must be done from where your business license is posted. When you send a firearm to another FFL, it is supposed to be from where your business license is. What ATF does allow is off site storage and warehouse space. If your business license allows any over the counter traffic such as sales or transfers, the ATF form 4474 must be completed at your place of business. You probably also know that you cannot operate from a P.O. Box.
ATF allows electronic record keeping of your bound book but if you are audited, (ATF has the right to do this at any time) they want the bound book printed out and filed in last in first out order. It can get tricky because you must record the receipt of a firearm within 7 days but recording the disposition and date can be all over the place. You can be fined and loose your FFL for some minor infractions. There is a bill proposed to lessen the penalties for accounting infractions but it has not yet been introduced to the senate that I am aware of.
Also, If you obtain an 01-FFL, you do not need a C&R license. You can buy and sell any curios and relics with an 01.
Do make an appointment to speak in person to planning and zoning. If they require a hearing for a conditional use license, it could take weeks to get on the docket. It would be a shame for your FFL application to expire in the meantime. I'm not sure how city government is structured in NYC but If a hearing is necessary, it will most likely also require the endorsement of your alderman or ward captain.
Keep us posted.
I should have read the letter you sent to BATFE. You mentioned that you plan to or are selling out of the country. If so, you will need to comply with the Arms export Control Act of 1976. Import/export is not regulated by CGA. You will however need a General Export license From the US Dept of Commerce.
Also, please be aware that most firearms can not be sold internationally to most countries for reasons of national security, foreign policy, etc.. Many parts and accessories, not regulated by ATF, such as lasers, some scopes, replacement barrels, air guns and cross bows are regulated by the US Dept. of Commerce. Manufactures and distributors also may prohibit international sales due to trade agreements with other countries or short supply.
If you want to get into import/export, you really need to know international commerce law and tariff restrictions.

I did not know that it was legal to forbid legally owned firearms like that
"The Second Amendment: America's Original Homeland Security"
Background check is NICS. I spoke to zoning they just recite whatever the book say's that why I went to the NYC Council. My information is being reviewed for consideration as possible legislation for internet home occupation based business.
I'm more interested in law enforcement sales I qualify for through my SBA HUBZone certification for set-aside contracts. NYPD told me internet sales are between myself and the ATF as the NYPD regulates physical over the counter retail sales in NYC.
I don't conduct retail sales my company is internet based. If I can offer a better price the purchaser can purchase through me I arrange it through my distributor who drop ships it to another FFL (transfer) and he/she (purchaser) can pickup the firearm from retail FFL in their state/location. I never have to receive the firearm.
I had to point this out to my ATF investigator as he stated he never heard of it.
ATF Publication 5300.4 Revised September 2005
Procedures: (1) Where licensee A places an order for firearms or ammunition with licensee B and B transmits the order to licensee C for direct shipment (drop shipment) to A, a certified copy of the license of A must be forwarded to C prior to shipment of the order. On shipment of the order to A, C shall enter in his bound record the disposition of the firearms or ammunition to A. On receipt of the shipment by A, he shall enter the acquisition of the firearms or ammunition in his bound record. Both licensees shall make such entries in the manner prescribed by regulations. Since the actual movement of the firearms or ammunition is between C and A and since B does not take physical possession of them, B will make no entry in his bound record. However, B should make appropriate entries or notations in his commercial records to reflect the transaction.
(2) For example, where a licensed dealer orders firearms from a wholesaler and the wholesaler requests drop shipment from the manufacturer to the dealer, a certified copy of the dealers license shall accompany the wholesalers order to the manufacturer. The manufacturer shall enter in his bound record the disposition of the firearms to the dealer, and the dealer shall enter the acquisition of the firearms in his bound record reflecting receipt from the manufacturer. The wholesaler, although a part of the business transaction, neither acquires nor disposes of the firearms and would, therefore, enter nothing of the transaction in his bound record.
I am very aware of BATFE regulations and drop shipping firearms. If you are only buying from one distributor with a fulfillment program, only your distributor needs a copy from the FFL the distributor is sending to. As stated, You do not record this in your bound book. Records of the transaction are for your accounting. They are not audited by ATF.
ATF Does not require a storefront and they do not care if your business is 100% Internet based. You only need to state your hours of operation. I think it has to be at least 20 hours a week but you can make it 1 hour a day plus Saturday and Sunday or whatever you want. They really don't care as long as you have some regular hours of business, even if Internet.
Some firearms are manufacture direct. To get the best possible discounts, it is best to be a stocking dealer. Drop shipping may seem convenient and painless but you pay for it. I use any of 10 or more distributors. The pricing differences and item availability can differ quite dramatically. Why limit yourself? Most distributors won't drop ship. Those that do might require a line of credit but it is to your atvantage to have more than one source.
Should you wish to purchase a firearm from your distributor for yourself, you do not fill out ATF-4473 however you must record the transaction in your bound book.
As to firearms carry in your building. I presume you have an unrestricted carry license or permit for a handgun. I know you cannot carry a loaded rifle of shotgun in public but I don't think the landlord can keep you from having one or both in your apartment. I do not believe your landlord has any grounds to deny your 2A right. Send him the text from The Chicago vs. McDonald Supreme Court decision.
If you understand, things are just as they are... If you do not understand, things are just as they are....

Running a business out of an apartment is usually a no no, unless a there is a specific stipulation allowing it. Also, I'm sure zoning laws will come into play. However considering the latest SCOTUS decision, I don't think your landlord can forbid you from excercising a constitutionally protected right. It's the business aspect that's hurting you. What does your lease say about running a business and what zoning laws apply?
"First gallant South Carolina nobly made the stand."
Edge of Darkness
My company is an LLC. I live in an apartment in Manhattan stocking is not an option as I don't have a physical store. As far as zoning it's explained within this letter. [LINK]
Like I stated I'm internet based all I do from home is paperwork zoning allows a home occupation professional office.
The ATF investigator called me today 08.16.2010 to arrange my on-site interview at my shared/virtual office location on 08.20.2010. If I missed any questions please resend.
My message to the Zoning Department.
Message 08.03.10:
Is it correct that the city zoning bans individuals with a tax payer number from having an internet based business from a residential home where products are sold on the internet but shipped directly from the manufacturer to the purchaser?
Response 08.17.10
Dear Mr. Reynolds:
An internet business, as you described in your e-mail message to the Department of City Planning, where orders are placed on-line and products are shipped directly from a manufacturer to a customer, is permitted as a home occupation, provided all other provisions relating to home occupations are complied with, as set forth in the definition of home occupation in Section 12-10 of the New York City Zoning Resolution. The Department of City Planning does not make determinations regarding zoning conformance or compliance. Such determinations are made by the Department f Buildings located at 280 Broadway, New York, 10007. If you would like this information in letter form, please send a check in the amount of $110.00, made payable to the Department of City Planning, to, Zoning Division, Department of City Planning, 22 Reade Street, New York, 10007. A letter will be mailed to you within a week of receipt.
Zoning Division
Department of city Planning.
I will not be acquiring the letter

I just bought a new laptop. Sadly today I just noticed there are some weird, suspicious shortcut files on my desktop named "Free Whales Screensaver", Free Dolphins Screensaver, etc. They are located at C:\Program Files\Free Offers From Freeze.com folder.
Anyone has any experience facing this kinda virus/malware/spyware? Are they dangerous?

Can I trust this blog?
I am currently using McAfee Security Center antivirus, given 3 years free by Dell when I purchased. Is it strong enough? Or should i go for Kaspersky?
Hope somebody can help.

Apple, at All-Time High, Is Now a Research Firm's 'Best Idea'
The investment committee at Wedbush Securities announced this morning it had put Apple on its "best ideas" list. Are they buying high?
The stock did after all hit its all-time high yesterday, so there's a bit of a barn-door-closing post-horse-leaving feel to the announcement.
They still see value, however, justifying their move thusly:
