REPORT: California Pension Plans Out of Control
A non-partisan think-tank says California's state and local governments are going bankrupt while employee pensions, salaries and benefits are spiraling out of control.
The California Policy Center today released 2013 payment figures which, President Mark Bucher says, show surprising use of taxpayer money.
"We saw pensions, close to a million dollars a year. There are actually people in the state of California who retire, and on the day they retire, they get a check for a million dollars," Bucher said.
That data includes pension information from the large state systems and payroll data from state agencies, counties, the CalState system, and community colleges.
Among other things, it found Sacramento CEO's making $370,000 a year; CalSTRS retirees taking home six-figure pension payouts; and an L.A. fire Chief's $998,000 a year salary.

Audio quality just like the movies
Cinemas have always had the best audio quality. But why pay for a ticket? With High Definition audio, you can have the same quality audio reproduced in your home. Have wireless, invisible 7.1 channel surround sound in your home with the YSP-5100.
Hear sound coming from your walls!
Yamaha Sound Projectors (YSP) work by using your walls as speakers. The YSP-5100 acoustically calibrates your room and works out where to bounce audio from the walls to ensure you receive the best quality surround sound.
Wireless iPod Dock
Using the included iPod dock you can have audio streamed wirelessly from your iPod to your YSP-5100. Simply plug in the supplied dongle accessory to bottom of your iPod and press play on your selected track. The YSP-5100 will turn on, go to the iPod input and begin to play. Best of all, you have volume control and track selection in your hand just by scrolling on your iPod.
Connect all your gear together!
The YSP-5100 has four HDMI inputs. That's probably enough to connect everything you've got, and then some. With each HDMI input supporting 1080p video and able to take all the new HD audio formats, the YSP-5100 is definitely the one stop shop for video and audio.
Designed to fit
Designers went the all the way with YSP-5100. Not only does it have all the features listed, but it was also designed to match the width of a 50-inch panel. If your panel has been mounted to a wall, don't worry. The YSP-5100 can also be mounted (with the SPMK-30 bracket) directly below to ensure it fits discreetly.
|Short Description
Yamaha developed the only true wireless systems back in 2005 with the revolutionary YSP-1. Since then the technology has advanced considerably with the YSP-5100 the perfect example of this. Using exclusive Yamaha technology, the YSP-5100 produces beams of sound that bounce around the room, producing true 7.1 channel surround sound. And with HD Audio decoding, iPod and iPhone connectivity via the included wireless transmitter and an FM tuner, the YSP-5100 is the premium sound bar in the market today. The same width as 50" televisions, it is the ideal audio companion to your large flat panel television.

FIND MORE LUXURY SELF CATERING ACCOMMODATIONView Property LocationShare PropertyView GalleryBOOK ONLINE
The Old Monastery in Burton Bradstock exudes a divine spiritual ambiance befitting a home which was once a seaside retreat for monks. Built in 1630, this Tudor coastal self-catering manor house in Dorset still boasts many quirky original features. Just a short walk from the Jurassic Coast which is now a World Heritage Site and has recently been voted by Conde Nast Traveller as one of Britain's best beaches.
This unique luxury coastal manor house in Burton Bradstock has seven acres of tranquil grounds within which to relax, with only the melody of the burbling mill stream to disturb. Designed by acclaimed architect Simon Morray Jones, the interiors radiate warmth and character, whilst offering all of the extravagances and mod-cons one would expect from a luxury self-catering home from home. Classic country style fused with contemporary coastal elegance at it's most beautiful.
Bedrooms and Bathrooms
The master suite is punctuated by a striking feature bed and has a luxury en suite bathroom with a standalone tub. There are two further double bedrooms bedecked with chic furniture, each boasting fabulous garden views; the larger of the two boasts a feature roll top bath. There is a flat screen television in each of the double rooms. The three twin bedrooms (one with an original feature fireplace) all boast serene views over the garden and beyond. A family bathroom with a free-standing bath and separate shower is the perfect place to pamper. There is also an outside shower – perfect for de-sanding toes after a day at the beach!
The tranquil gardens are an idyllic escape for families and friends alike, with plenty of space for a ball game with the children or a more sophisticated garden soiree. Nestled in the peaceful Bride Valley, the gardens are greeted by a calming brook that wends its way to the coast. Sit a while and watch the woodpeckers and squirrels go about their business and enjoy the views over the paddocks to the village church and beyond.
For Relaxation
Take your ease in the unique round wicker lounger out on the manicured lawn and soak in the peaceful countryside vibe. In cooler months, head to the sitting room and curl up in the hanging bubble chair or recline in front of the open fire in the drawing room with your nose in a good book. Just a short walk away across the fields and past the friendly dairy herd is the highly acclaimed Hive beach; perfect for whiling away those long hot summer days or enjoying the delicacies on offer at the Hive Beach cafe.
There is underfloor heating throughout the ground floor areas, as well as in all of the upstairs bathrooms. The property has a Nespresso coffee machine. Jim, the caretaker visits the property daily to tend to the lambs on site he will not disturb your stay.

Our Take
Property Consultant Clare says
The house has a very peaceful monastic feel and is set amongst the most beautifully tranquil gardens that are dissected by a burbling mill stream. It is a haven of peace and spirituality with a modern seaside twist!
Unique Extras
Added extras to enhance your self-catering holiday... from fresh picnics to afternoon teas, seasonal wine selections to tried and tested caterers and moreExplore extras...
Make full use of the light and spacious open plan Bulthaup kitchen and whip up a feast to 'wow'! The generously spaced kitchen flows seamlessly into the 'seats 12' dining area meaning whoever's on chef duty won't miss any of the action. The al fresco dining area is tucked away beside the river making a perfectly elegant spot for afternoon tea.
In-House Cuisine
If you'd rather spend your self-catering break indulging in the little luxuries, let an in-house chef prepare a mouth-watering meal for you and your party (on prior request and subject to an additional cost).
Eating Out
There are a selection of pubs and restaurants nearby in Burton Bradstock and beyond. The highly acclaimed Hive Beach Cafe is less than 10 minutes walk away across the fields. Also worth a visit are Hix in Lyme Regis and The Riverside Inn in West Bay for a more formal fine dining experience. The Bull Hotel in Bridport is a family favourite and well worth a visit.

August 26th 09:
August 29th 09: Today I got Nobody's Love and The Drama of Large Families off hiatus, so check them out and from now on they shall be updated regularly until I finish another story. Just a Predictable Time is still on hiatus, because I am quite stuck. I still am not starting anything new, that hasn't changed in the past three days.
September 18th 09: Today How can we be, when we can't even stand each other has been completed. I loved writing it! It was so much fun. Now I can continue my other stories, and maybe start a new one soonish. So stay tuned and let me know what you think of the end of How can we be, when we can't even stand each other!
October 5th 09: Well well. Working on two new stories (I know, I said I wouldn't, but I can't help it! And getting Just a Predictable Time off hiatus. But Tifa's adventures at Ylori is now on hiatus. :) Sorry! Please enjoy the stories that are done and being written, and check back often!
October 17th, 2009: So I got my new story, You're the Reason I can't control myself up. It's about Riku, from Kingdom Hearts! :D He's an emo singer. And go read the summary on this here page, then the story's first chapter, and tell me if you like it! :D Thanks!
June 23rd, 2010: Whoa. Where have I been? You don't wanna know. But I'm working on updating everything. I should update You're the Reason and Nobody's Love very soon. :D And I'm working on something new. It's not totally mine. Trust me, you'll understand soon. Love you guys!
July 5th, 2011: guess who's back, back again. Tj's back, tell a friend.
Her Real Emotion-My take on the story of Lenne and Shuyin, and it involves love, death, and a great story. (: And two lovely songs. Completed.
Tifa's Adventures at Ylori-A random little story about Tifa and many other Final Fantasy characters thrown into a private boarding school called Ylori that specializes in sports and the arts. Tifa plays soccer and loves life, meets some new friends, and falls in love with a super cute soccer player named Cloud. On hiatus.
How can we be, when we can't even stand each other- A love/hate story about Tifa and Cloud...and many others. Lots of drama as well, but more romantic comedy about two who, while made for each other, can't seem to be together. No matter how hard they try or have tried. Completed.
A Nobody's Love- A story about Xion I started forever ago as well, and can't seem to finish, well plus, I need Homely to message me back and edit and add, since we're collaborating on this now. But I have been working on it by myself and it's finally off hiatus, so go check it out. Xion's the weird kid at school, and Riku's that hot guy...you know, the one everyone wants. But Xion has some enemies and allies she doesn't remember, and a dangerous past. In progress.
Never too busy for love- Roxas Peterson is just too busy. He works as an assistant for a very arrogant actor, his family life blows, he just wants out, and now he's falling in love with sweet little Namine. In progress.
Watch You Walk Away- A story which has been inspired by my bestie's life. An angst Kairi is still hopelessly in love with the boy who broke her heart and doesn't want her back. She's so used to being alone after that horrid summer...but she needs to get better. In progress.
Just a predictable time- My first and so far only Rikku story! :D I love Rikku. But anyways. Rikku is a lead singer for a local band with her friends called The Gullwings. She's swamped with school, two boys who she can't choose between, and of course, being a teenage girl is never easy. All songs were written by the same bestie of mine who WYWA is about...so please do enjoy and appreciate. In progress.
Kingdom Hearts 3- An old fic from deviantART that I'm now re-writing here. Kairi, Sora, and Riku's story after Kingdom Hearts 2. In progress.
Ordinary Day- Zerith oneshot with the song Ordinary day by Vanessa Carlton.

Deepika Kumari was done in by some sheer class of more experienced opponents as she settled for two silver medals, including one with Jayanta Talukdar, to help India finish fourth in the Archery World Cup Stage 1 that concluded in Shanghai on Sunday.
Pitted against Ok-Hee Yun, a team Olympic champion and individual bronze medallist in Beijing 2008, Deepika took a 4-2 lead but the Korean showed amazing resilience to win successive games and seal the issue 6-4 for her third World Cup gold in Shanghai after 2006 and 2009.
In the recurve mixed team final, the US duo of Brady Ellison and Khatuna Lorig outplayed Talukdar and Deepika 154-146 as India ended their campaign with two silver and one bronze (women's compound team).
In the recurve women's individual final, former world number one Deepika outscored her opponent 29-27 to win the first set.
But Yun, who is 10 years older to Deepika, 19, came back in the second set to make it 2-2.
Deepika, who is currently world number 3, took the lead again in the third set (4-2). The Korean put her expertise into use as she bounced back to equalise 4-4. In the final end, Yun's experience helped her.

In his first Commons appearance as Work and Pensions Secretary, Andrew Smith confessed the total last year was not, as the Government claimed, £86bn. A 'statistical error' had been made and the true total was likely to be £51bn.
It means that the 12m people who have occupational and private pensions are not saving £7,000 a year as Ministers had claimed, but only £4,600. Apologising for the second such mistake in recent months, Smith said he had launched a complete review of the figures.
For months the Government has insisted that its pension policies were delivering the goods. Pensions Minister Ian McCartney has said: 'The stable economy has created the right conditions to save, and our policies to encourage higher levels of private saving are having a positive effect.' Smith's predecessor, Alistair Darling, said the level of saving was 'encouraging'.
The blunder comes amid evidence that for the first time in more than 20 years the number of workers retiring with their own pension is falling. The figure peaked at more than 66% of the pensioner population in 1997. Since then the proportion leaving work with occupational schemes has dipped below 60%.
The reason is that smaller firms which have proliferated in the service sector are less likely to offer occupational pensions than those in heavy industry which have declined. Many workers in the new industries opted for private sector schemes which have often proved inadequate.
Smith said the £86bn total had been exaggerated by more than a third due to double counting of funds transferred from one investment to another. Critics denounced it as an 'elementary howler'.
The Minister also faced stern questions about the rush by companies to shut down final-salary pension schemes and switch to much less generous arrangements. The companies blame a £5bn a year tax grab and falling stock markets. Smith said the Government was to consider 'concerted and radical action' to sustain final-salary schemes.
His Tory Shadow, David Willetts told him: 'It's a pity that your first appearance at the Dispatch Box is to admit a serious error made by your predecessor.' Later Willetts said: 'We are not saving enough and millions of people are facing poverty in their retirement.'

World events to visit in 2016
Spring has arrived! As 2017 draws ever closer, make the most of the last three months of the year with these exciting events across the globe.
China's Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the September full moon. Throughout the month, Chinese people celebrate by feasting on Mooncake; a jelly-filled pastry centred by red bean paste. In addition to these sweet treats, September in China is also a great time to shop, as the mid-autumn sales commence. It is customary for people to visit friends and family, and with larger regions hosting traditional dragon and lion dances, there's always something to do. Even if you can't be in Asia you can visit your nearest Chinatown to celebrate this awesome spectacle of Chinese culture.
Asia plays host to rev-heads from around the world in October, with the Singapore and Malaysia Formula One Grands Prix. While the Singapore GP is held at the iconic Marina Bay street circuit, F1 fans will need to travel to the Sepang circuit in the capital city of Kuala Lumpur to enjoy the Malaysian race. The F1 2016 season is heading into the home straight, so Singapore and Malaysia promise to be filled with action and drama. With a week between races, why not head to both and do some sightseeing in between?
Day of the Dead is widely celebrated throughout Latin America, but it truly comes alive – excuse the pun – in Mexico. Across the country, citizens create brightly coloured shrines commemorating their loved ones. Tourists can wander through the major cities and admire uniquely Mexican art, costumes and flavours, or visit outlying villages where bold theatrical performances depict the returning of the dead.
If you're keen to get the blood pumping, why not take on the world's largest marathon for amateurs and experienced athletes? Thousands of people descend upon New York for the city's famed race, held on the first Sunday of November each year. While the event's popularity means entry is done via a ballot system, fitness fanatics can earn their place by meeting a strict time qualification. Now in its 46th year, the New York City Marathon is an institution, with over a thousand competitors who have completed the race more than 15 times.
Spend summer down under and celebrate New Year's Eve at the Gisborne Rhythm and Vines Festival. Held on Waihoka Estate on New Zealand's North Island and limited to 15,000 people, the renowned Kiwi festival attracts over 100 local and international music acts each year. In addition to the music, expect awesome food, a fireworks display and even waterslides!

Fluorite Rainbow enhances your ability to accept and be healed by the life force. To do this, it breaks up blockages in the flow of all seven color rays throughout your physical and inner aspects. The Purple Rainbow Fluorite and color ray gemstones help you move beyond undesirable situations by stimulating the resolution of karma and accelerating the life lessons associated with color ray imbalances.
Fluorite Rainbow contains Purple Rainbow Fluorite, Lavender, Ruby, Carnelian, Citrine, Emerald, Blue Sapphire, Indigo, and Amethyst.
Fluorite Rainbow and Light Stream
Fluorite Rainbow is closely related to the necklace known as Light Stream. Although both necklaces contain the same gemstone components and offer the same benefits, Fluorite Rainbow's effects are stronger. Fluorite Rainbow contains twice as many Fluorites and color ray gemstones as Light Stream; yet, because of its design, Fluorite Rainbow is more than twice as potent. Light Stream also costs less than Fluorite Rainbow.
Benefits of Wearing a Therapeutic Fluorite Rainbow Necklace
Fluorite Rainbow enhances your ability to accept and be healed by the life force. To do this, it breaks up blockages in the flow of all seven color rays throughout your physical and inner aspects. Fluorite Rainbow contains Purple Rainbow Fluorite, Lavender, and all seven color-ray gemstones.
Color rays are the most fundamental building blocks of all living things, including human beings. At a fundamental level, even our atoms and subatomic particles consist of color rays. Therefore, any excesses, deficiencies, or blockages in the flow of the color rays that comprise your being can have an enormous influence on your health, life situation, and even the experiences and people you attract or repel.
Each of your life lessons and karmic situations, including any physical conditions, is a manifestation of an excess, deficiency, and/or blockage of color rays. Ideally, when you resolve the underlying karma or learn the lesson, the resulting color-ray imbalances and blockages correct themselves. However, because the physical body is reluctant to changeeven when the change is in its best interestsometimes these color-ray imbalances fail to correct themselves fully, even when you have resolved the karma or learned the lesson. When this happens, the related life situation or physical condition may not disappear with the lesson.
Fluorite Rainbow addresses these life situations and lessons while nourishing you at a fundamental level with the seven color rays. This necklace works on all aspects of your being simultaneously to disintegrate the blockages that lead to color-ray excesses and deficiencies. It also helps break up the limiting states of consciousness that can prevent you from learning the lessons and resolving the karma associated with color-ray imbalances and blockages. Hence, it can help you move beyond many undesirable situations.
Fluorite Rainbow also provides your body with the impetus to resolve any imbalances or blockages associated with your main color ray. Wearing this necklace will allow you to derive more nourishment from your main color ray. Because Fluorite Rainbow includes all seven color-ray gemstones, it is also an ideal necklace for someone whose main color ray is white.
Necklace Applications
It is best to wear Fluorite Rainbow around your neck.
Time Guidelines
Some people may find that the intensity of changes initiated by Fluorite Rainbow, make it uncomfortable to wear on a continual basis. If this is the case, wear it only at night. This will place emphasis on the dream state and may help clarify the meaning of your dreams. If you wear it both at night and during the day, the dreamtime emphasis won't occur. Another option is to wear Fluorite Rainbow only during your daily spiritual exercises or creative visualization sessions.
When you first start wearing Fluorite Rainbow, it is best to wear it for only a few hours at a time. Then you may gradually increase this time, based on your comfort. Judge for yourself. If you are wearing the necklace too much, you will know it; you will feel as though changes are happening too quickly. If this happens, remove the necklace for a few days or until the pace of change slows.

And the winner is.....
Lycaenion and Hakia are already there. The only people allowed to actually hear the results from the priestesses lips, are the competitors. But it seems like it never stays a secret long. By the next sunrise, the whole of Drucilla will know the outcome. That is how it always is. Hakia turns and smiles at me. All I get from Lycaenion is a smug grin. She already thinks she has won. We will see.
Hakia gestures, causing her lavender robe to shift, and Lycaenion and I to kneel in front of the Head Priestess, and she places her hands on our heads. Looking at he floor, I see the symbol of Drucilla. The jasmine blossom is the emblem of the city. It represents the Spirits. It grows by the light of the sun, but it is easier to find at night. It grows in the heat of summer in the middle of the forest and always has a sister near by.
The priestess begins the ritual by stating the origin of the world. "Sesi's twins, Saule and Sauda, befriended Seika and Seda, in the beginning of time. They all created the world together. They balance each other and the island where we live."
She continues by saying how we honor the Spirits. "It is not wise to either give more thanks to one spirit, or less to another. We honor all of the spirits by doing challenges. We honor the sun by starting and ending at her signal. We honor the summer by using her bounty of life. Honor is given to the forest by appreciating the cover from danger and discovery it gives us. Only do we go against a sister of similar age. Never an elder, for that would be shameful to the sister spirit. We honor darkness by using its cloaking gift to better our selves." When this is done, we both promise to accept that even if we have not won, we are different and will win another time, another day.
Then we are permitted to rise, and we wait to see who will have the honor of walking away as the champion. Hakia looks at both of us and starts with me.
"Klymenstra, you have caught nine pheasants on this glorious night. I have measured what your dogs have brought me and your number is 20."
I can see Lycaenion's jaw drop. I am surprised as well. For only nine pheasants, that is a lot.
"You are next, Lycaenion. Are you ready?"
"I am ready."
"Lycaenion, you have caught eight pheasants. Your number is 17."

The experienced left-arm seamer had been plagued by a no-ball and wide problem during their previous victory over New Zealand.
But he rediscovered his rhythm in Ahmedabad and delivered a superb spell of 10-3-16-2 with the new ball to frustrate South Africa's early stroke-makers and help restrict them to 219 for nine.
Knowing victory would all but secure their place in the semi-finals, Sri Lanka captain Mahela Jayawardene had decided to bowl first to ensure prolific spinner Muttiah Muralitharan did not have to bowl with a ball soaked by the early-evening dew.
Captain Graeme Smith became Vaas' first victim when he pushed to Sanath Jayasuriya at short mid-wicket and Herschelle Gibbs fell three overs later, caught behind attempting to steer Lasith Malinga down to third man.
With opener Boeta Dippenaar falling in the next over, edging Vaas behind, South Africa had slumped to 30 for three and needed a partnership to prevent their innings from capitulating.
They got that partnership with Jacques Kallis teaming up with AB de Villiers in an 80-run stand, but neither batsman was able to score at a quick enough rate to propel their side to a decent total.
Their partnership took 23 overs and, by the time Kallis had charged down the pitch to Jayasuriya's left-arm spin and was stumped by some margin for 43, South Africa were running out of overs. Muralitharan ended de Villiers' battling 54 off 88 balls by getting him caught in the deep attempting to hit over the top.
Both big-hitting Justin Kemp and Mark Boucher perished without being able to increase the scoring rate.
It took the experience of Shaun Pollock and Robin Petersen to propel the Proteas over the 200-mark with a stunning 42-run partnership off only 4.3 overs, including 22 off the 48th over from Farveez Maharoof.

It is my view that the universe is infinite, and time goes from infinity to infinity
Why can't a 3 dimensional space contain nothing ?
Could't the energy in our universe be compared to a form of pressure which is rushing out to fill an area of no pressure ?
If I've moved into moron country please feel free to tell
Also in terms of small scale nothing , isn't that what the planck length does , below that size energy has no practical effect so it may as well be nothing ?
matter and antimatter repel
So, where do you stand on this one, Vikki?
As I understand it our universe is pretty energetic even the vacuum on space still has high energy radiation whizzing through it and quantum foam bubbling away so why isn't the time space of our universe just expanding to fill a void ?
The thought that it is expanding shows that it is not infinite.. and therefore there must be something external to the universe.
An infinite universe can still expand. Think of it like this: consider an infinite flat plane which has a grid on in. At t = 0 the distance between a grid line and the next grid line is 1 meter. As time increases that distance increases.
So the universe started off as being infinite and then it became even "more infinite".
What would stop the sides meeting ... I don't quite understand the question
Therefore, under this remit, it is the gravity field that expands the dimensions of time and space.Where there is no time, existence cannot exist. How can we describe non-existence? Can we call it 'nothing'?
What you say is true of an unbounded space, but to apply it to infinity is at best a misuse of mathematics, and at worst "fairy-tale physics".
That makes no more sense than saying something started as being perfect, and became "more perfect".
Quote from: timey Therefore, under this remit, it is the gravity field that expands the dimensions of time and space.Where there is no time, existence cannot exist. How can we describe non-existence? Can we call it 'nothing'?Surely, if there is gravity there would have to be matter/energy to cause the gravity to exist. If there is matter/energy there has to be space for it to emerge/exist in, and time to allow this to happen. Gravity could do nothing unless time already existed.
After I do my best at that and they simply refuse to disagree with what the physics tells us,
You've always had problems with the concept of infinity and this is another trouble spot for you.
.what cosmologists know to be the case and teach in their classes
Bill , you've got some leaning towards the multiverse, eternal cosmos notion, don't you?
I think it's best to view time as a frame of reference not a physical structure .
Quote from: Cornelius I think it's best to view time as a frame of reference not a physical structure .Does that differ from seeing time as that with which we measure change? I would be quite happy with that, but I accept that it may be no more than a poorly informed opinion.I can't agree that seeing nothing as being "absolutely nothing" is in any way complicating the issue. BTW, I regard "absolutely nothing" as a tautology, on a par with "absolutely perfect" or "absolutely infinite".
If you think about the accelerated expansion of universe (space-time) what that also means is time is speeding up at an accelerated rate.
. One is placed in a slower more contracted reference and the other is placed in a faster more expanded reference.

The city of Helsinki elected the 28th of February 2011 a new project manager called Ville Relander, who will lead the realisation of the city's food culture strategy. The working place for this manager will be the wholesale food market in Kalasatama. Relander has earlier been working as the CEO of local food shop Anton&Anton and knows therefore how to create new restaurant and hotel concepts in Finland as well as abroad. Now in his new position, he sees that Helsinki has all the potential to become a Nordic success story also concerning its food culture. He will utilise his position to co-operate with innovative actors and develope Helsinki's food supply and the services connected to the food industry.
"It is especially great that the city dears to be up to date and active already in the developing phase of the food culture. I look forward to co-operating with different actors in the food industry. My mission as project manager is to co-ordinate and encourage people to creativity and co-operation among each other. The food culture stategy is a big project, so in order to achive something special, it needs a broad vision and priniciples behind it. It also needs to be esembling among actors. We have all the possibilities in the world, as long as we believe in ourselves!" encourages Relander.
Relander also believes that the Nordic countries are now on everybody's lips concerning tourism but also food, which ensures that Helsinki will continue to be a popular food destination. Relander recommends the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' brochure "Titbits from Finland" which introduces the Finnish food culture. According to him it exhibits in a nice way our food culture. Relander strongly believes that networking concerning local food and food in general will help the city in finding solutions to a versatile supply.
On the courtyard of the wholesale food market and its red brick market hall there will open in 2012 a new area meant for consumers, where visitors can try many kinds of food products. In January, the HEL YES pop up restaurant gave some pre-taste of this.
The work group behind the food culture project has made up a plan, where it listed plans interesting even for visitors:
- developing market and market hall activity
- making the food culture of Helsinki a part of the World Design Capital Helsinki 2012 programme
Relander encourtages visitors to try Finnish so called authentic old school restaurants like Kosmos, Elite and Sea horse. His own grocery shopping he makes in the Hakaniemi market hall and the ethnic and ecologic shops in its surroundings. Relander loves the bakery Eromanga's meat pies and authentic street food, but thinks that Helsinki lacks its first organic street grill. Are you up for the challenge?

Home › Forums › Gear Forums › Gear Lists › Headed south on the JMT on July 29…
Jun 8, 2014 at 1:37 pm #1317709
This is my first extended solo trip. I've done plenty of shorter trips around MN (boundary waters, superior hiking trail), and have pretty comfortably done 20 mile days.
Looking to do the JMT in 16-17 days, beginning from Happy Isles on July 29th, with food pickups at Reds Meadow and Muir Trail Ranch.
Here's my current gear list:
Let me know if I'm missing anything, could really do without anything, or could lighten anything on the list relatively cheaply. I've checked out and tried other backpacks, but I'm most comfortable with the Exos, even though I could save weight there. I know I could save weight on the sleeping bag too, but unless I fall upon a supermegadeal, that's what I'll be going with.
Any tips, advice, suggestions, are very much appreciated. Thanks!Jun 9, 2014 at 7:26 am #2109943

I think flip-flops will be a tough go.
I suggest going with trail runners.
I know they weigh more, but for your first trip they'll be worth it.Jun 9, 2014 at 7:44 am #2109949
My bad, the flipflops listed are just for camp, not my main hiking shoes.Jun 9, 2014 at 8:16 am #2109964
Art …BPL Member
in that case if you want to save weight drop the flip flops.
if you have the right feeling hiking shoes you don't need special camp shoes.Jun 9, 2014 at 9:05 am #2109979

@bookLocale: Northern California
Agreed, drop the flip flops. Out of Happy Isles you are instantly going to wish that you had the lightest pack possible. And on that note: have you thought about stashing food at Tuolumne Meadows too? I've met lots of hikers who were disheartened hiking from Happy Isles to Tuolumne with six days of food on their backs. It's a real climb! And you're just starting out. I'd vote making things as easy as possible. Pack two days worth of food.Jun 9, 2014 at 9:28 am #2109986

@terry588Locale: West
Are you cooking with esbits or alcohol?
With the fire situation in California, you need to check to make sure you can use alcohol. As of last week you could not use alcohol in Yosemite, some of the other areas on the JMT have not made up their mind yet.Jun 9, 2014 at 9:30 am #2109987
Alright, I can drop the flops.
My initial plan was to be able to get to Red's Meadow in 5 days/4 nights. I was going to ship my cookset to my first drop at Red's, and have non-cook food the first few days, along with a meal or two at Tuolumne (depending when I'm around there), and then a meal at Red's when I get there.
I guess I was more focused/worried about the last drop at Muir Trail Ranch, and carrying 9 days of food up and over the high passes, than I was the first couple of days.Jun 9, 2014 at 9:35 am #2109988
Terry –
planning on an alcohol stove, but shipping it with my pickup at Red's Meadow, so I might be fine once I get out of Yosemite?
Thanks for the head's up on that. Where do you find updates on that stuff?Jun 9, 2014 at 12:26 pm #2110047

The PCTA site has some info. They also have links to the different forest services you will be going through. Just so happens i am leaving on the JMT SOBO on the 15th of July and have been checking all the links every week to try to find out which ones are allowing what. It is very confusing! I have finally decided to carry canister stove with esbit backup, but will keep checking for changes. My feeling is it will only get worse, not better.Jun 9, 2014 at 8:52 pm #2110198

My hiking shoes (trail runners) were a dream, yet I was still sooo happy to have my flip flops (the cheapest, lightest old school kind I could find).
If it was me, I would drop the extra pair of Darn Tough socks. One pair of Darn Tough socks (w/Injini toe socks – foot savers!!!) saw me through the entire JMT. Twice. I also brought an ankle length pair of smartwool socks for sleeping (1.1 oz) and wore them occasionally during the day if the hiking socks were drying. Mostly, however, I could get by with only washing the liners regularly, as the Darn Tough held up so well and didn't get very stinky (at least not that I noticed! ;) .
Forego the inflatable pillow? It looks like it may be your luxury item, but you can use your jacket or something and make out just fine.Jun 10, 2014 at 9:20 am #2110337

flip flops: or get a pair of mesh pool shoes that weigh about 2 ounces. I use mine if I'm going to be crossing a lot of streams, but they're fine in camp. Except for the occasional Ponderosa pine cone needle!Jun 10, 2014 at 9:24 am #2110339

As one of the many way-too-analytical BPL members I would like to know the precise weight cut off where going bare foot would be just as good ;-)Jun 10, 2014 at 4:09 pm #2110448

Last year the fire bans went into effect around July 1st in both Inyo and Sierra National Forests. Given how dry this year I expect it to be similar if not sooner. (Inyo NF and Sierra NF are the areas between Yosemite and Kings Canyon.)Jun 10, 2014 at 7:04 pm #2110501

SEKI allows alcohol and esbit during fire restrictions, so from MTR southward, I think you can use those for sure. Buy a cheap ebay cannister stove and leave it in the hiker box at MTR and use alchol from there, they sell the alcohol too. The weight isnt much of an issue anywhere before there.

Hi Jim
If you remember I told Ben if that was all he had for proof was no one
disagreed with him or some such nonsense then he had to be right. I also
went on to say if that is what he uses for his scientific work/papers he
isn't much of a scientist. Other than that I have a hard time taking Ben

Series: American Land Classics Series
192 pages, 12illus
Johns Hopkins University Press
Grounded in ornithology and botany, informed by classical mythology and the experience of women, and based on the premise that human beings are intimately connected to the landscapes in which they live and work, this classic of American nature writing challenges readers to appreciate the land on a local, personal, and familiar level. Reprint edition.
'The Friendship of Nature' will be prized by writers, scholars, and activists seeking to identify more closely with their own, often far from 'pristine,' landscapes and to dig in and take responsibility for them. It enriches our exploration of the ways in which individual human narratives reflect the deeper narratives of geology, climate, migrations, and forest history. This newly framed classic represents an important contribution to literature and environmental thought alike.--John Elder, Stewart Professor of English and Environmental Studies, Middlebury College

2006 Buick LaCrosse CXS 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 4A)
Buick got it right this time in a big way. I am a 35 yr old male, and love just about everything about this car. The value, price, appearance, ride, and performance were exactly what I was hoping to get in my next auto purchase. The sleek black exterior with chrome appearance package is very sleek. The gapping on all the panels inside in out is up there with the best in the industry. The CXS trim competes with and beats comparable Lexus easily. The Harmon Kardon sound system is awesome. Satellite radio is fantastic too. The ride is smooth and tight on corners. So glad I considered a Buick. They are superior vehicles.
Smooth, sporty ride. Sound system/XM satellite radio. Comfortable seats. Multi-purpose family/sporty/elegant/upscale sedan. Details like double weather stripping on doors that no other brand at this price does. Quiet cabin is wonderful on the highway. Trunk is sufficiently large. Fold-down seats.
Nothing that is not silly nitpicking. Great value, performance, and reliability from a domestic. Give Buick a shot if you are considering a new sedan. You will be glad you did.
2006 Buick LaCrosse CX 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
Pro's: firm road feel, 400 miles to a 17 gallon tank (23.6 mpg), quiet and spacious interior, comfortable cloth seats, attractive exterior colors available. Effective and quiet A/C and heating. Con's: what's with the drab instrument display? Steering wheel could be set a bit further from dash. Inferior audio in base model. A/C vents with diffused air only.
Quiet, with respectable overall mpg
More colorful analog dash, and audio sound improvement
2006 Buick LaCrosse CXS 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 4A)
The Lacrosse CXS is fun to drive. Very comfortable seats. Lots of power from the new 3.6 variable-valve-timing V-6. Love the XM satellite radio. Good fit and finish, both inside and out. Good handling car. Much better driving and more comfortable seats than previously owned 2006 Lucerne CXL V-6. Poor gas mileage on the 3.6 V-6. Some kind of reflection appears in both sideview mirrors (suspect from bright moulding at bottom of front side windows?) Don't like GM forcing customer to buy their OnStar system. I could live without it. Rear seat leg room barely adequate. The rear view is rather ugly, especially with the 2 big tin can mufflers.
The 3.6 engine is super smooth, quiet and quick. The car has a nice tight turning radius (much better than the Lucerne). Like the location of inside trunk release on power door button. Really like the XM satellite radio and upgraded audio system.
Make OnStar an option. Paint rear mufflers flat black and cut out lower edge of rear bumper to put some big old fat chrome exhaust tips to distinguish CXS from lesser models of Lacrosse. Get rid of reflections in side mirrors. Move power seat controls to door panels.
2006 Buick LaCrosse CXL 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
Now have 600 miles on car and remain generally pleased. Car is a great value, rides too good. At 65mph, feels like 40 mph. Hope it does not get me too many tickets. Some improvements could be added. Trunk has no handle to open lid, requires fingernails be placed under lid to open. Power steering pump requires coolant bottle be removed to check fluid level. Love the trip computer, but need to figure out how it works. Car should have fuel range of 510 miles with a full tank, but computer says about 375 at fill up, then increases as I drive. I guess it's reacting to how fast/economically I am driving, but I would prefer it to go the the full range at fillup and then reduce available miles as I drive
Appearance, interior fit and finish. OnStar. Love the little opera windows
Trunk lid handle. Long dipstick to check power steering fluid. A little small in trunk. I like the folding seats, but would really like the flip and fold seats as in the Impala. I find the radio settings a bit complicated.
2006 Buick LaCrosse CXL 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
I put a great deal of time and research in before deciding to buy this car. I looked at 300, Impala, Saturn Azura, and the Grand Prix. I am a GM discount buyer, but even if I wasn't, this would have been the car I would have bought. 4 year 50,000 warranty a plus. It has rear head airbags standard, a $700 option on some cars! I traded my BMW 740i in for this car. The more I drive, the more I like it. Compare and you'll see the value. OnStar is great to have. The rebates easily made this a hands down winner.
The comfy seats, the quiet ride. OnStar. The fit and finsh, inside and out.
Would be great if the dash came out some, but they made it that way in case you opted for the 6 pass. seating

One Girl's Dying WishesMature
Amber Hallison.
One girl.
One life.
Too many last wishes.
I shiver as the cool wind blows in my hair and clothes.
My own sense tells me I'm being stupid. I should just go back home. It's too early for anyone to be awake, they won't even know I left. I should just get back in bed and pretend this never happened. Just smile and pretend everything is OK.
But I'm not really listening to that. I've made my decision and there's no changing it, no going back.
I'm glad it's quiet up here. Quiet and deserted. No-one to watch. No-one to try and stop me. No-one to tell them I'm missing.
I begin to walk across towards the edge. It's cold, but I don't care. I didn't come up here to bee warm. I stop about a metre away. I know this is drastic. I know it's not going to solve anything.
It's strange to think that it's not far back to town. If someone just looked over they would be able to see me clearly. But nobody looks at the cliff. Nobody dares even go near it. That's how I know nobody is going to find me.
I have so many regrets. Too many regrets. And there's nothing at all I can do to put any of it right. That's why I'm doing this. If I'm gone, it will resolve everything.
As I look out over the cliffs, not for the first time in what little is left of my life, I think about the things I would change if I could just reverse time.
I would change so much. I have so many regrets. Too many wishes.

Logan jostled his way through the corridors, attempting to find his locker. After five minutes searching, he eventually found it. He entered the combination and swung it open. The other kids had beaten him to it. Insults and slurs were scrawled upon the inside of the door, and a rotten egg was placed in the centre of the locker. Logan gagged as he removed the egg with a tissue and placed it in a bin. He returned to his locker to raucous laughter from the other students. He did his best to block out the sounds as he began scrubbing the remainders of the egg from the locker. He was so intent on ignoring everything around him that he never noticed Alyssa arriving next to him.
"Looks like we're locker buddies huh?" She said. Logan jumped, causing her to laugh. "Sorry if I scared you" she smiled, then noticed the mess in his locker, "Aww they didn't do that to you too did they?" Logan merely nodded. "Here, let me help you". She took out a tissue of her own and reached in beside him, brushing her hand off his as she did so. Logan didn't know if it was an accident, or intentional, so he continued to clean. She smiled at him again. "It's ok to talk you know, I don't bite....always" she said, a twinkle in her eye.
"How did you get past all of this? What made them stop?"
"The thing that saved me was also a curse" she said, sighing, "Brett, the captain of the football team decided that he liked me. He had the rest of them stop, so he wouldn't be seen as chasing the 'uncool' kid. Needless to say, I turned him down, but he thinks I'm just playing hard to get. He still chases me, tries to force us together. If any other guy even tries me, he immediately takes it upon himself to 'defend my honour' and beats the living shit out of them. Of course, he moves from girl to girl every day; he is allowed apparently. But yeah, it was because of him that they stopped. Annoying really, whenever I like a guy they just end up hurt because of it".
"He sounds like fun" Logan said, his tone indifferent. "I somehow doubt someone is going to take the same view with me. I hate being the new kid". He slammed the locker shut. "Why always me?" He walked away, leaving her standing there. She quickly caught up to him and put a hand on his shoulder.
"You don't have to go through it alone" she said.
"I have been the new kid seven times, this is the eighth time in the last four years. The new kid is always alone".
"Not this time" she smiled at him, "Come on, let's get to class". Logan sighed, smiling in spite of his misgivings and followed her. They sat together at the back of the class, and Alyssa's friends soon joined them.
"This is Abby and Imogen" Alyssa pointed to each of the girls in turn, "girls; this is Logan. Abby had long, blonde hair that hung to her waist. She was quite slim. She had a distasteful look on her face when she saw who Alyssa was sitting with. Imogen was a redhead. She was incredibly thin, almost unhealthily so it seemed to Logan. She forced a smile in his direction, but that was the extent of it. They sat and turned away from Logan and Alyssa, talking in whispered voices.
"I hope I'm not driving your friends away from you" Logan said.
"Don't be silly. They'll come round". Logan smiled at her, then surveyed the class. Nobody was looking at him, bar one boy at the top of the class. He was big and had a shaved head. He was staring daggers at Logan, cracking his knuckles as he did so. Alyssa saw him looking. "That is Brett. Take my advice, stay away from him". Logan intended to.
The rest of the morning passed as could be expected. Each of the teachers took it upon themselves to have Logan; the new kid, stand up and introduce himself to the entire class. He felt as if he were a monkey on display for the entire world to see. He felt as if the world were trying to assess how he would react to being placed in the spotlight, portrayed as a fool. He felt alone.
The lunch bell couldn't have come soon enough for Logan. When it did, Alyssa had to go off with her friends. Logan trudged to the canteen alone. He had just taken his seat, when a shadow fell over him. Brett stood before him, flanked by two of his cronies.
"New kid. I'll let you off with a warning this time, seeing as you are new, and don't know the ropes. I run this shithole. That girl you were talking to, she is mine. If I see you talking to her again, you'll get what's coming to you". His friends laughed. They seemed to be under the impression that Brett had just said something funny and clever. "Understand?"
"Perfectly", Brett was too stupid to realise the mocking tone in Logan's voice. He strode away, seemingly satisfied with himself. Once he had finished eating, Logan went outside into the yard. He found a corner where no one else was, sat down, and stared around him. He took out his lighter and clicked it. He watched the flame as it danced, then put the lighter away. It would not do to be caught with it on his first day.
When it came near the end of lunch, Logan noticed a commotion on the opposite side of the yard. He walked over to see what was going on, and found himself next to Alyssa near the front of the crowd.
"What's happening?" he asked.
"Brett. He's bullying Dax again".
"Who's Dax?"
Alyssa pointed toward the centre of the crowd. Brett was standing over another kid. Dax was a scrawny specimen with long, curly black hair. He wore glasses and an Iron Maiden t-shirt. He was scrambling around, picking up his possessions from the ground. "Brett threw him down because he didn't like the way he was dressed today- too Goth-like apparently". Alyssa evidently did not approve of Brett's way of thinking. Neither did Logan. Brett kicked Dax as he came to close to him, and Dax shrank back, clutching his side where the boot had landed. Everyone was laughing. Logan felt his anger rising. He knew he shouldn't get involved. But he was sick of taking other peoples shit. He dropped his bag, and then felt Alyssa's hand on his arm. "What are you doing, Logan?" she whispered. He shook her off and moved out into the circle.
"Leave him alone". Brett turned to look, dumbstruck. Who would dare interrupt him?
"I thought I told you, new kid, I run this place. That means you don't tell me what to do. You don't piss me off".
"Well it looks like I just told you to leave him alone". Logan moved in front of Dax, creating a barrier between him and Brett. For a moment, Brett looked as if he would do nothing. The crowd waited with bated breath.
"You're a dead man, newbie". Brett advanced toward Logan, who held his ground. The bigger boy hurled a right hook at Logan, who sidestepped. He used Brett's momentum against him, grabbing his arm as it flew by, and flipping him. Brett landed in a heap on the ground. He was back on his feet in a flash, anger in his eyes. Just as he advanced toward Logan again, one of the teachers broke into the circle.
"What is happening here?" he asked.
Brett stared daggers at Logan. "Nothin sir" he said.
"I should hope not. Back inside, all of you". The circle began to disperse, everyone whispering excitedly.
"See what the new kid did?"
"Is he trying to sign his own death warrant?"
"Brett's gonna kill that fool".
Once the teacher had walked away, Brett came over to Logan and stared him down.
"You are fucked, newbie. Big mistake. Watch your back". He stormed off, his cronies following him. Logan turned to Dax.
"You alright?"
"Y-yeah I'm ok", Dax got to his feet, "Thanks for... you know... sticking up for me".
"Don't mention it. I'm Logan".
"Dax". They shook hands. "I- I need to get going. I'll see you around though?"
"Yeah sure thing". Dax thanked him again, and then hurried off. Logan went to retrieve his bag, and found Alyssa standing where he had left her. Her face was unreadable. Logan stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
"That has to be one of the most stupid things I have ever seen someone do" she said, then laughed. "You've just made yourself an enemy. I told you to stay away from him".
"I couldn't stand by and let him keep harassing Dax".
"Well your bravery was more stupidity than bravery. Brett won't forget this. He will get you back".
"I'll be waiting". She said nothing for a long moment.
"Well look on the bright side, you got a new friend out of it. That has to be the fastest a new kid has made to friends in the history of new kids" she laughed. Logan couldn't help but smile. "Although, if he sees you with me now after this, he really will come after you. I don't know if our friendship is the best thing for your health". She laughed again. Logan loved the sound. It was like a chorus of angels. "Come on, let's hurry before we're late". They went back inside for the next bout of classes.

Cheil Industries Inc, an electronic material, chemical and textile unit of the Samsung Group, said on Tuesday it is considering buying German high-tech lighting company Novaled AG.
South Korean newswire Money Today reported earlier on Tuesday the Dresden-based company was expected to fetch around 300 billion won ($270 million), citing an unnamed source attached to the deal.
Cheil's announcement came after South Korea's Doosan Co Ltd also said it was looking at acquiring the organic light-emitting diode (OLED) maker.
Novaled, which is already backed by Samsung Group's venture capital arm Samsung Venture Investment, filed for an initial public offering last year with U.S. regulators.
