I found myself thinking today that what fundamentalists call "faith" looks surprisingly like "doubt", and what they consider "doubt" at the very least demonstrates a greater amount of "faith" than their own so-called "faith".
Doubt in Faith's Clothing
January 18, 2009 by 12 Comments
Let me explain. (And, by the way, I hope none of those "quotation marks" were "unnecessary")
Fundamentalists increasingly take measures to try to insulate themselves, and in particular their children, from other viewpoints, and in particular discussions of topics related to science or the academic study of the Bible. Where, in such actions, is any expression of faith that God will watch over them, or even faith that honest seeking after answers and consideration of the evidence will lead to the truth, and that that is a good thing? Where is faith that there is power in their message and the gates of hell cannot withstand it?
Instead, the behavior of many extreme fundamentalists reveals what they really have, deep down: doubt, fear, and uncertainty. If there is one thing that they seem in general to be certain of, it is that exposure to intelligent, rational discussion is something dangerous. Their faith, when they have any, is in insulation of themselves into "holy huddles" as protection against the onslaught of reason, discussion, investigation and even honesty. Is it any wonder that apocalyptic is so popular in such circles?
Honest investigation, on the other hand, involves faith. Faith that it is worth getting to know the Bible better, even if it turns out to be a far more human and far less perfect collection of writings than we had hoped. Faith that seeking after the truth is a good thing, even if it doesn't lead us to places we would have foreseen. Faith that when we change our minds as we learn, grow and mature, this is healthy and helpful.
To allow the simplistic understanding we had as children, and the childish and immature attitude that went along with it, to be shattered and transformed, involves great faith, in the sense of trust in a process of growth, in the sense of confidence in the ability of honest inquiry to lead to truth and understanding, and also in the sense of courage.
On the other hand, avoiding exposure to other views, and attempting to insulate and isolate ourselves, is as clear an expression of doubt as I can imagine.

Native students pick RAIN IS NOT MY INDIAN NAME
Just read some terrific news over on Cynsations...
Cynthia Leitich Smith's novel Rain Is Not My Indian Name is the recipient of the Dishchii'Bikoh High School Reader Award. The school is on the White Mountain Apache Reservation in Arizona. I am not surprised that teenagers would make this choice. It features a Native teen of the present day. Refreshing and awesome in so many ways.
Congratulations, Cyn!

5 Reasons why we love a quickie
"Quickies are the Big Macs of the sex world. They are pure, guilty pleasure," says Joan Elizabeth Lloyd, author of Now and Forever: Let's Make Love.
A quickie can be every bit as satisfying as a slow, languid love making session - and sometimes even more so. There's something about sneaking away from a party and getting down to business or grabbing your partner when he's already dressed for work and throwing him on the bed. Quickies can be amazingly hot! There can be a lot of excitement and arousal and sometimes the orgasm doesn't seem as important, it's all about the journey rather than the destination (for those of you who have read "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance").
There's a time and a place for quickies - well actually any time and anywhere as long as you're not going to be arrested and as long as all of your sexual encounters are not wham bam. Here are the 5 reasons why we love them.
1. You can leave your hat on
It's the urgency which gives quickies their appeal. Sex is generally about getting naked but when you're talking about quickies there isn't always time to waste those precious minutes. Part of the thrill of a quickie is spontaneity and nothing says spontaneous more than not stopping to get your gear off. And there's nothing sexier than sliding clothes aside just enough to expose the bodily bits you want to play with.
2. Location, location, location
Quickies in the bedroom don't quite have the same allure as a quickie up against a wall, in the shower, on the kitchen bench or even in a more public location. It's often the thought of getting caught which ups the excitement ante. But really as long as it's relatively private and you're not going to be interrupted for 5 mins there's really nowhere a quickie can't be indulged in.
3. The after glow rocks!
You'll boost your mood, feel energised, reduce your stress levels and the flash backs will continue throughout the day and the night. Encore anyone? And the next time you hook up or practice some self love you'll have those images in your head ready and raring to get you in the mood.
4. Orgasms are not the main objective
Well it would be nice if an orgasm happened every time but 5 mins doesn't give you enough time for heaps of foreplay and oral sex to make any guarantees. And a quickie doesn't even have to be about penetrative sex - a quick blow job in the shower or some mutual masturbation can be loads of fun. So think about pleasure rather than orgasms, adjust your expectations, pick a position that works for both of you (but with plenty of clitoral or g-spot stimulation for her) and enjoy!
5. There's no time to feel self-conscious
The whole point of a quickie is you usually don't know when it's going to happen and given that most of your clothes are staying on there's no need to feel self-conscious about grooming, or lack of grooming. We guarantee your lover is so focussed on the task at hand there's no time to focus on the smaller details.
We're definitely not suggesting you forgo your candlelit date nights followed by slow, sensual sex for a series of wham bam moments but a well orchestrated quickie can do wonders for your sexual repertoire.
Yep, we love stepping out of our usual routine and indulging in a down'n'dirty quickie. So c'mon - your turn to share - where, when and who did you enjoy a mind blowing quickie with.

Powercords and other purchases
This morning, I went downtown again and, after visiting 6 stores (luckily all in the same neighborhood) and walking a mile to the one bank that takes my ATM card (I hadn't brought enough cash, and credit cards are taken almost nowhere), I purchased a new powercord.
Kampala seemed incredibly remote before I got here. I carefully packed Q-tips, unsure if they would be available. Now I recognize how easy it is to acquire many of the things that I need, or simply things I want. My stupid mistakes and technical difficulties can be fairly easily overcome, as when I forgot to attach an adapter when I plugged in the battery charger. Another was available in fairly short order.
At the same time, some things I took for granted are much harder to come by. I needed to print out copies of borrower profiles once I got here and accessing a printer meant taking a matatu (taxi) to the next neighborhood and purchasing copies at 500 shillings a page (about 30 cents a sheet). I am used to printing anything and everything whenever I want, but now I think carefully about whether or not I really need that page. Given the usual state of my office at home, this is a good thing.
The primary difference for me in my acquisitions is the time that it takes: taking a matatu instead of hopping in the car; going to six computer stores instead of Best Buy; waiting for someone to help me print out my files instead of doing it myself. And I admit I miss the ease of doing these tasks at home. I've lived alone for a long time and considered myself to be very self-sufficient. Now I'm being asked to do things in a way that I haven't been asked to since I was a kid: to share, to wait, to take my turn, and to not always expect things to go my way. I'm glad to report that I haven't had any temper tantrums–so far.

Joe, that's the whole thing about the New Judging System. The levels have nothing to do with the quality of the spin. You can be the world's crumbiest spinner and still get a level 4. The only thing that counts in determining the level is how many changes of edges and changes of position you do.Originally Posted by Joesitz
Plushenko got level 4s on both of his "CCoSp" spins. (Change/combination).
This is one of the big criticisms of the NJS. A dog on skates can get a level four if he raises his leg four times.

Even at freaking Chuck E. Cheese! Seriously. I've been to Chuck E. Cheese with a couple of different families. And each time, the parent hovered constantly over the child.
They either inserted the tokens into the coin slots for their kid, or took the child's hand in theirs and guided it the whole time.
They even assisted their kid in tearing off their tickets at the end of the game. And then they carried the tickets around as they hovered from game to game.
And! After every game, they'd annoyingly ask, "Okay, what are WE going to do next? Should we try this one? Should we try this one?"
All this, at the place where a kid can (supposedly) be a kid? I mean - check out this commercial from 1986. Notice anything that's NOT hovering constantly, condescendingly and annoying over the children at all times?
When you act like this, you are making your child stupid. You are robbing them of opportunities to develop fine and gross motor skills. Without which they cannot control the world around them. Without which they can't hold a pencil and turn a page or push a wagon up a hill. Without which they are not safe.
For example. Schools across the country have banned the popular childhood game, Tag, from the playground. According to Why Kids Are Getting More Aggressive on the Playground, a recent post by occupational therapist Angela Hanscom,
Kids are starting to hit with such force that they often end up whacking their opponent across the back in a monstrous slap. I've seen this myself many times. "Ouch!" one kid cries, now on their hands and knees and fighting off tears. "Don't hit so hard!" they yell up at the child standing over them. Often, you hear the other child whine, "I didn't mean too…" Many times the act seems unintentional, although painful for the victim nonetheless. Tag is now becoming such an issue that schools are starting to ban this once beloved game.
Back in the day, kids used to go outside and play. Not only was it a magical part of their childhood... but it was also an essential part of their development. They learned how to use their bodies to make a snowman or throw a snowball. They learned how to race up hills, balance beam on 2x4s, and pump their legs to operate a swing. They built forts and dams. They rode bikes and climbed trees.
And, yes. Sometimes they would hit or push or "tag" another child too hard. And they would see that they hurt the other child, and learn from it. Because they had good proprioceptive sense, they were able to fine-tune their motions and be gentler next time.
As an added benefit, they learned how to communicate, compromise, and negotiate as they got together with other children, invented games and made up their own rules. (You know, as opposed to a hovering parent telling them what they were going to play and how -- and then proceeding to mediate every little dispute. Are you trying to raise an entrepreneur... or a mindless hoop jumper?) These are skills that are known to increase your child's lifetime earning potential -- not to mention happiness, mental health and relationships.
So they turn on the iPad, the iPhone, the computer or the TV. And spend almost all of their free time looking at a screen. Even thoughiPads make kids boring.
Want to know about this? Read The Hurried Child: Growing Up Too Fast, Too Soon, by David Elkind.
Another culprit is irrational parental fears. Possibly because of the media, possibly because of something else, parents have a hugely irrational fear of their children being injured, murdered or kidnapped. According to a recent New York Times post, The Case for Free-Range Parenting,
Respondents were terrified by the idea of giving their kids only a fraction of the freedom they had enjoyed as kids. Many parents cited fear of abduction, even though crime rates have declined significantly. The most recent in-depth study found that, in 1999, only 115 children nationwide were victims of a "stereotypical kidnapping" by a stranger; the overwhelming majority were abducted by a family member. That same year, 2,931 children under 15 died as passengers in car accidents. Driving children around is statistically more dangerous than letting them roam freely.
But serious playground injuries, and especially playground deaths, are exceedingly rare. In fact, fewer than 13 children die per year on playgrounds -- and among those, runaway motorcycles or equally freakish, unpredictable, unpreventable horror are the cause of death.
And minor injuries are just that: minor. In fact, psychology research has shown that there is a psychological benefit to minor injuries in childhood.
Basically, children are hardwired to explore. Risk-taking (or, at least, the perception thereof) is in their nature. Risks tend to manifest themselves in one of six ways:
1. Exploring heights
2. Handling "dangerous" tools, such as scissors, knives or hammers
3. Being near dangerous elements, such as water or fire (or, as was the case in Stand By Me, a dead body)
4. Rough-and-tumble play (which, as I mentioned above, is a way for kids to learn to negotiate aggression and cooperation)
5. Speed -- e.g. cycling, skateboarding, ice skating at a pace that feels too fast
6. Exploring on their own
Research by Ellen Sandseter, a professor of early-childhood education at Queen Maud University College in Trondheim, Norway, has found that kids who spend more time exploring on their own before the age of nine are less likely to to have anxiety and separation issues as adults. Likewise, kids who got hurt falling from heights when they were 5-9 years old are less likely to be afraid of heights at age 18.
Our minor injuries actually give us confidence. They teach us what our limits are, how to handle ourselves in scary situations... and that, even if something goes wrong and you get hurt, you can get better. (Resilience for the win!)
And, of course, these injuries will happen less frequently and less severely if your child has better joint and muscle control. If you really want to increase your child's safety, don't ban them from the playground. Help them develop their proprioceptive sense.
So. Going back to your child's physical and mental development. Say you're worried your child's senses aren't working quite right. What should you do?
Don't panic. All that's happening is your child isn't moving and playing enough. You can easily fix it. Follow these steps.
1. Give your child some chores. Ideally outdoor ones, like raking, shoveling, gardening, or any activity that gives weighted input into your child's joints or muscles. Taking out the trash, carrying in groceries -- the list goes on. (Not to mention that the extra help is totally mutually beneficial.)
One chore I often had growing up was fire duty. We had a wonderful wood stove, and my brother, sister and I would take turns hauling in wood (either from the wood room in the basement or the wood pile outside), crumbling up newspapers, making a little wood tee pee, and starting the fire that kept our family room warm. When we got older, we'd also help chop the wood -- which is precisely why I have never chopped my foot off. (Gotta keep 'em spread apart when you're swinging the ax, in case you miss.)
And now I'm a grownup, and I can make a fire better than anyone I know. (Except for Aborigines, who are so much better than I am, I can't even comprehend it.) And I still love being around this "dangerous element."
And then, ten years later, THIS happened:
4. Don't flinch when your child engages in rough-and-tumble play. It's a super important, healthy part of their development. And it's a great way for them to learn about empathy and complicated human emotions. It's a good way to develop healthy attitudes about competition. And... it's just plain fun!
I'm an adult, and you will see me engaged in some form of rough-and-tumble play at least once per day.
Here are some toys that will help get your child's muscles working.
- Slotwood. It's like life-sized Lincoln logs. If you're worried about their safety, ask them not to build structures that are taller than they are - then nothing will ever fall on their head.
- Skateboard. I'm sort of in love with Frozen, so I'm partial to this model:
- Wagon. It would be impossible for me to tell you how much use I got out of my wagon growing up. They're handy for moving toys around, moving your friends around, and imaginary play. And they're great for a child's muscle and sensory development. (It also comes in a smaller, lighter version - but both of these are rated for 18 months+)
- Big, oversized inflatable soccer ball with 4 goal posts set. This looks really silly and fun.
- Buddy Bounce Outdoor Inflatable Play Ball. Because OMG way too cool! Also, I hear bubble soccer might be the next new Olympic sport.
- Monster Feet "Stilts" - so they can start training for Halloween early :P
- Grip 9 Piece Children's Tool Kit. These tools are designed to be safe for kids over four, and are a great way to get them started working on their own projects. Remember: the very best learning happens through play. For $35, your child can know more about building by the time they're six than the average Stanford student knows as a freshman.
PS: If you happen to know where I could get my hands on a Mongo Bat, you can be my new BFF.

The Monster Men HTML version
Chapter 4. A New Face
As Professor Maxon and von Horn rushed from the workshop to their own campong, they
neglected, in their haste, to lock the door between, and for the first time since the camp
was completed it stood unlatched and ajar.
The professor had been engaged in taking careful measurements of the head of his latest
experiment, the while he coached the young man in the first rudiments of spoken
language, and now the subject of his labors found himself suddenly deserted and alone.
He had not yet been without the four walls of the workshop, as the professor had wished
to keep him from association with the grotesque results of his earlier experiments, and
now a natural curiosity tempted him to approach the door through which his creator and
the man with the bull whip had so suddenly disappeared.
He saw before him a great walled enclosure roofed by a lofty azure dome, and beyond the
walls the tops of green trees swaying gently in the soft breezes. His nostrils tasted the
incense of fresh earth and growing things. For the first time he felt the breath of Nature,
free and unconfined, upon his brow.
He drew his giant frame to its full height and drank in the freedom and the sweetness of it
all, filling his great lungs to their fullest; and with the first taste he learned to hate the
close and stuffy confines of his prison.
His virgin mind was filled with wonder at the wealth of new impressions which surged to
his brain through every sense. He longed for more, and the open gateway of the campong
was a scarce needed invitation to pass to the wide world beyond. With the free and easy
tread of utter unconsciousness of self, he passed across the enclosure and stepped out into
the clearing which lay between the palisade and the jungle.
Ah, here was a still more beautiful world! The green leaves nodded to him, and at their
invitation he came and the jungle reached out its million arms to embrace him. Now
before him, behind, on either side there was naught but glorious green beauty shot with
splashes of gorgeous color that made him gasp in wonderment.
Brilliant birds rose from amidst it all, skimming hither and thither above his head--he
thought that the flowers and the birds were the same, and when he reached out and
plucked a blossom, tenderly, he wondered that it did not flutter in his hand. On and on he
walked, but slowly, for he must not miss a single sight in the strange and wonderful
place; and then, of a sudden, the quiet beauty of the scene was harshly broken by the
crashing of a monster through the underbrush.
Number Thirteen was standing in a little open place in the jungle when the discordant
note first fell upon his ears, and as he turned his head in the direction of the sound he was
startled at the hideous aspect of the thing which broke through the foliage before him.

My kids and I had a great time and Rick and Sherry's home in Sebago. Loved the location, easy access to the lake, marina, good bar and restaurant, grocery were right down the road. Neighbors were friendly. Place was beautiful. Rick was very considerate and checked in and called to see how everything was going, and was helpful in giving guidance regarding places to go in the area. Really hope to come back.
This was my first time ever renting a home from home away. I could not be more happy with our experience. Rick met us at the property and went over every detail which was more than helpful. He even left brochures of nearby restaurants and activities in the area. You could tell he was very maticulous with the way he kept his home which made our stay all the more comfortable. It was clean and well kept and had everything we needed to feel comfortable for the week away. My family and I had a wonderful vacation and would love to go back and stay at Rick and Sherry's home again in the future.
Thank you again,
Our stay in Wards Cove was wonderful! The property was nice, clean and well maintained. The owners Sherry and Rick were very nice people to deal with. The view of the lake from the property was awesome, we hated to leave when our week was over. We love being on the lake so we rented kayaks for the week which is fun. Also enjoyed going to Naples to play mini golf at Steamboat Landing. We would recommend this property to our friends and relatives.
We came back home today from the most relaxing, fun vacation we have had in a while. The day we got there was our 50th wedding anniversary and Rick and Sherry had champayne waiting for us, they are 2 of the nicest people we have met. The home they have made for the lucky people who get to rent is awesome the pictures dont show all the little things they do , the sparkling clean rooms, the sweet smelling linens, hand soaps at each sink, lotions in the bath, I could go on and on.
The only drawback was the beach that is across the road and a short stroll away is very rocky I would advise that you bring old sneakers or water shoes so your entry into the water is easier on the feet.
I am sure that we will be back.
Cathy & Danny Litchfield NH
My family and I just returned from a fabulous vacation on Sebago. We had 2 adults and 3 16 year olds traveling with us. The house was beautiful and clean upon arrival. The views from kitchen and deck are stunning. There is no direct lake access at house however you can easily walk too water and deeded docks; only takes 2 minutes. The bathrooms and kitchen have all tastefully been updated and decorated. The air conditioner wasn't necessary but available as well as a washer and dryer. It was very nice to have linens provided. The beds were comfortable although one room only has a futon-my kids were fine with that.
There are countless things to do in area from kayak rentals, jer skis and boating. Portland is reasonable drive for a fun night out.
The owners were very timely in response to emails and very accommodating. It Was an absolute pleasure to stay in their home.
One word to decribe this house and the owners--AWESOME. My family and I were honored to be the first renters. We felt at home. Rick and Sherry are two of the nicest people you will ever meet. We felt like we were home and not in a rental. Location is great. Pictures do not do this place justice. We have rented many places and seldom return to the same place. I can honestly say we have found a place we will rent again. Thank you--Rick and Sherry--you did a great job renovating this place into a true home. We will be back for years to come.

Swiss watch found in 400-year-old tomb
Local experts say they are confused as they believe the tomb had been undisturbed since it was created during the Ming dynasty 400 years ago.
Webmaster's Commentary:
I'm not confused. The site is obviously contaminated.
Unless the site has been tampered with, I would suggest that some burrowing animal found the watch-ring and took it into his burrow ... above the tomb.

Exciting graduate news from Hong Kong as film director, Vicky Wong Wai-Kit, who graduated in 2006 from the Filmmaking Diploma has won Best Original Screenplay and Best Editing for his edgy crime thriller, Trivisa (2016).
'Trivisa' was co-directed with two other up-and-coming directors, Frank Hui and Jevons Au, and produced and nurtured by acclaimed Hong Kong auteur, Johnnie To. Each director was given one of the film's three main characters — gangsters planning a job in Hong Kong—to flesh out and film. The stories were then woven into a seamless whole, resulting in a feature that has proved a hit at the local box-office, premiering at the 66th Berlin International Film Festival and winning a string of awards, including best original screenplay and best editing at the Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan.
Most recently, 'Trivisa' has been chosen as the opening film of the 40th Hong Kong International Film Festival where it has been nominated for 6 awards including Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor x 2, Best Screenplay, Best Film Editing.
Many congratulations to Vicky and team and we look forward to hearing of the film's continued success.

No more excuse for Darren McFadden. For five seasons, all we've heard about is how much potential Darren McFadden has and how great he'll be if he can just stay healthy. The problem is, he's never been healthy. Not for a full season anyway. He's been a shell of the superstar that dominated college football at Arkansas during his collegiate career, injuries or not. His disappointing production throughout his NFL career has been blamed on everything from playing for a bad team to injuries and schemes. Few people, however, have come right out and asked "Is this guy really that good?" McFadden had a 1,000 yard season in 2010 when he was able to stay healthy for 13 games. He's had promising starts and finishes to other seasons, but has never been able to stay healthy or consistent. It's the consistency that scares me about McFadden more than anything. The fact is, McFadden has played in 57 games — roughly 3 1/2 seasons worth of games. That's a pretty decent sample size. Given that size, ...

I buy Mineral Fusion because it contains no harmful chemicals -- and I love it! I would give it 5 stars but for the fact that it's pricey for what you get because it has to be sharpened constantly to be of much use and therefore doesn't last long. But I LOVE iHerb for its fast ship and very competitive prices. Best anywhere.

Convenience store 2020: Centre of the local ecosystem
The fundamental development around convenience stores will be conceptualising an ecosystem around the store, seating it at the heart of a community and making it a hub, not just for traditional top-up purchases but for a wider range of services.
Convenience stores will also need to be completely catchment centric. Simon Chinn, author of the report, comments: "The days of a one-size-fits-
Location will also become even more crucial than it is already. Locations of high guaranteed footfall such as suburban train stations, metros and bus stations will be intensely competed over. Retailers will also be looking to capitalise on strategic locations in local neighbourhoods where they have the opportunity to become local anchors and footfall drivers for the additional services they offer.
Another opportunity that convenience stores can capitalise on is in the creation of a more integrated offer. Shammi Luhar, ResearchFarm Analyst, highlights that in order for convenience stores to be successful it will require a multifaceted approach encompassing the store, location and private label offer. These three elements must be closely knit with the catchment of the store. Indeed joined up thinking around these principles will become an innovative guiding principle for the best convenience store operators. Retailers such as Migros in Switzerland already target their private label range to catchment specifics and have launched a dedicated convenience private label line that highlights a quick, on the go message.
An integrated approach will require effective supply chain management, using the convenience store, both in its traditional form as well as a logistics hub, for example, for online orders that will enable retailers to lower their costs and make their operations more efficient.
Overall local adaptation and catchment centricity will become the overriding focus for convenience stores in the years ahead. Only by effectively addressing these elements will retailers be able to establish an eco-system around their stores.
Future drivers of convenience store growth, such as rapid urbanisation and ageing populations, will result in more format fragmentation going forward, as stores will be adapted to suit the needs of specific catchments. This is due to the needs of growing urban populations and the more specialised services demanded by the aged in their neighbourhoods due to their relatively weaker mobility. This will imply that a one (small) size fits all for convenience stores will no longer be good enough.

Collections at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum
The Museum showcases art from the 13th century to the 20th century. Renaissance, Mannerism, the Baroque, Rococo and Romanticism are all available to view. You will find the pieces mesmerizing and some of them are so deeply moving you wonder what the artist was thinking and feeling at the time of producing the painting. Also you will find the 19th century American painting on display.
The most interesting of all and for which the Museum would not be a Museum is the magnificent collection of Baron Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza (1875-1947) and Baron Hans Heinrich-Thyssen-Bornemisza (1921-2002). These two people are obviously initially responsible for the Museum and this magnificent collection of Spanish art.
The History of the Museum
In 1992 the museum opened and on Ist June 1993 the Spanish State purchased the Thysson-Bornemisza collection. In 1996 the collection was shown in Madrid for the first time. Subsequently, the stunning collection has been shown in numerous countries throughout the world.
Baroness Carmen Cervera, the philanthropist made the collection accessible to the public, by receiving a loan agreement in 1999, from Museo Thyssen, in return for loaning 665 Spanish and International pieces of art, for a period of 11 years. Since 2004 the new Museum has housed these International and Spanish collections.
Directions to the Museum
From the underground Line 2 Bance De Espana Station will take you to the museum. If you are nearer to the RENFE train then exit at Atocha or Recoletos Stations, you will have less than a 10 minute walk to the Museum from either of these stations. There are numerous buses to the museum the 1, 2, 5, 9, 10 and 15 go to this location, however please note that this list is not exhaustive, you can catch plenty of other buses too. If you are travelling by car there is public parking at Plaza de las Cortes
Further details on travel around Madrid are available from the local Tourist Information Office, at Punto de Información Turística de la Plaza de Cibeles (Madrid VCB). This office is open until 2030 hours.
Purchasing your Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum Tickets
The Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum tickets can be purchased on line for €12.00 for a full adult priced ticket. Special rates are €8.00 for Pensioner's, Students, Youth Card Holders, Disabled and Faculty of Fine Art Teachers.
The price of the ticket gives you access to the Permanent Collection and also temporary exhibitions. You can enter the exhibitions any time during opening hours however, if you wish to see the Madrid Realists Exhibition, you do have to book your time slot in advance, to be able to see this Exhibition. You can do this at the time of booking your ticket.
Museum Opening Hours and Facilities
The Opening Hours of the Museum are primarily 1000-1900 Tuesday to Sunday inclusive. On a Monday afternoon the Museum is open from 1200 to 1630 hours. On a Saturday you can gain entrance to the Museum up to 2100 in the evening. Please note that this does exclude the Permanent Collection and The Secret Sits (Wyeth Wonderland).
There are a great deal of facilities at the Museum: Free WIFI, cloakroom, café, restaurant, a shop that opens from 1000-1900 Tuesday to Sunday and 1200 to 1630 on a Monday afternoon. You don't have to purchase a Museum ticket to enter the shop. Audio guides are also available in Spanish, English, German, French and Italian. For €7.00 you can use the guides in the Permanent Collection Exhibitions too. This Museum is a must when you are in Madrid, the collection is fascinating, and the food in the restaurant and café is superb.

Throw Them All Back
Hour after hour you're stubbornness drives you chuck the cartons back. Three days later you finally finish. You lay down exaughsted. You dribble as you realize you haven't eaten or drunk for three days.
You look up and trillions of milk cartons fly towards you.
They all hit you at such a speed that they explode and milk goes everywhere.
You open your'e mouth and milk pours in. You are no longer thirsty.
You get up and turn around.
You see an old man with no teeth and a big nose standing next to a machine with big letters saying: MILKATRON 3000.

My wife and I are spending more time this summer camping ( yay!) , but we are struggling to find a solution to our sleeping pad dilemma. We've been using a zpacks double wide bag, which we both love, but our TAR pro light pads tend to slip apart in the night. We used to use big Agnes full length pads with pad straps but there was too much fiddle factor for us.
What are some light weight option for double wide sleeping pads? We would rather avoid CCF too.

@davidinkenaiLocale: North Woods. Far North.
I've got some heavy, self-inflating pads (for camping and boating) with Velcro on the edges. About three strips 4 inches long each. It works well. Maybe you could add that to your pads with fabric cement.
I used the straps for a pair of thermarests 25 years ago and the Velcro works better.Jun 29, 2013 at 7:15 am #2000761

As for the zpacks double quilt: my wife and I haven't pushed it to its lower limits yet. It's a 20 degree 6' model. My wife is 5'6" and I'm 6'1" and it works well for us. We have had it down to near freezing and we were comfortable then. I tend to sleep warm and the misses likes that when its cold ;)

Lots of UK family camping brands have brought out some double wide SI pads in the last few years. They're often on the heavy side but if you're looking at "car camping" with it then that's not a problem.
Examples come from
Vango: https://www.vango.co.uk/sleep-mats/adventure-double-/-3cm.html
and Gelert: http://www.gelert.com/products/xpedition_double_mattress
I was looking for an alternative to attaching mats and I struggled to find anything light without going for CCF. I believe multimat do some sort of CCF designed to be a sort of footprint of a 2 man tent as overall insulation which could work but as you said, CCF isn't preferable to most.Jun 29, 2013 at 4:15 pm #2000900

"What are some light weight option for double wide sleeping pads? "
I used the Thermarest Universal Couple Kit. However, I see today it has buckles. Mine does not. Mine is like a ribbon sewn in the center to form a figure 8. I have two of these. Then the each pad would go in its corresponding figure-8 loop; one at the foot end; the other at the head end. And it works great.
But anyway, lately I've gotten lazy. I use a 1oz 14"x14" cupboard lining material. It is very grabby. We center our mats on that square and it holds pretty good on level ground.

ThruNite TN12 Brings 1100 Lumens of Greatness
My wife always jokes that anytime someone wants to get me something, they cannot go wrong with either a flashlight or pocket knife. This is true; I absolutely love really bright, tactical flashlights. The ThruNite TN12 ($49.95) brings a strong, tactical design along with a super bright 1100 lumen Cree LED light. Let's take a closer look!

S&W 442, great pistol, easy to conceal and not too expensive

S&W 442, great pistol, easy to conceal and not too expensive
Ruger SP101. Not because it looks cool, but because I like shooting Rugers. They are accurate. Their extra weight tames recoil of +P snubbie loads. They are built like a tank and I'll probably be able to give it to my kids - even after a steady diet of +P ammo.
I carry it in my pocket - no problem.
They are all cool! Snubbies are just that way. It would be like a father trying to pick his favorite child.......got to love them all.
I like the steel frame .357's......like the M19, 686 etc.
Definitely a J frame 38 special.
Your poll forgot the lightweight J frame chambered in .357.
I carry a S&W M&P340CT and honestly think it's the best choice available! :image035:
I was thinking the same thing... Where is the .357 Lightweight?!?! :yup:
If weight is a concern, get a 642. Really not "fun" to shoot. A steel gun is better for that IMO.
If you don't mind the weight, I'd get the SP101 for shootability, stout construction and and exposed hammer option (if you so choose).
I have a new 642-P (ported) and its pretty cool although the fit & finish and trigger action is not all that impressive. Im currently tweaking it over and will post a few PICS when Im finished.
By the way, Thumper's PIC of his 340CT is fabulous!:yup:
The aforementioned SP101 in .38 Special:
Get the Ruger SP 101 They are the toughest snubby on the planet. Their reliability is unquestionable. They are heavier than other snubbies but I will take a little extra weight for the extra piece of mind.
The S&W 340CT is rather expensive while the 637CT is about $500 less. The grip that comes with the CT option because it is just a bit longer and gets the pinky on the grip. BTW: Who makes the best load for the 2" barrel guns? I've been using Winchester 130g STX JHP.
I much prefer my SP101 to the J-frame. Better sights, easier to shoot .38+p, much better trigger, much more comfortable. I carry the Smith as a BUG or a church gun.
I want a 9mm snubbie real bad, so I voted for that. I wish Smith and Wesson would start producing them again.

There's new-found cordiality between Jesse Ryder, Doug Bracewell and New Zealand Cricket but both players remain long odds to appear at the World Cup next February and March.
The former internationals have established peace without severing their national (Bracewell) or provincial (Ryder) contracts after breaking team protocol by being out drinking early on Waitangi Day, the first day of the opening test against India.
Over the past fortnight the pair have met New Zealand coach Mike Hesson, manager Mike Sandle, players' association boss Heath Mills and their respective provincial chief executives Hugh Henderson (Central Districts) and Ross Dykes (Otago).
With a powerful national team culture under construction, the baggage of Bracewell and Ryder might be surplus to selection requirements.
A miracle reprieve for the West Indies or England 'A' tours mid-year is unlikely because that would risk their punishment appearing too wet-bus-ticket in nature.
Compounding their problem is the fact little other cricket will be played before next season, so those who get picked will have a head start ahead of the World Cup summer against the likes of South Africa, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
They would need sublime form at Plunket Shield and HRV Cup level and a proven change in behaviour to make World Cup reckoning.
The Ford Trophy domestic one-day competition starts today with Ryder playing but Bracewell out with his broken foot.
Attention turns to who will replace them at national level, especially given Ryder is the incumbent short format opener. In his 30th year and with eight international scores between 17 and 23, Ryder's value could also be on the wane.
Options appear plentiful for the selection panel of Hesson and former international Bruce Edgar.
With right-hander Martin Guptill set, Kane Williamson, Anton Devcich and - if injury strikes - captain Brendon McCullum could open at the World T20 this month in Bangladesh. All have a proven capacity to hit over the infield.
A number of left-handers look logical partners for Guptill in 50-over cricket where Williamson returns to No3, McCullum bats at No5 and Devcich remains on the periphery.
The conventional thinking is to opt for Tom Latham or Hamish Rutherford. The radical thinking is to convert Corey Anderson or Jimmy Neesham to open in a Ryder pinch-hitter role, freeing up a spot further down the order.
The depth in bowling means Bracewell faces a bigger threat than Ryder. Matt Henry's four for 38 on ODI debut coupled with the return of Hamish Bennett, the desire to persevere with Adam Milne and the proven capability of Mitchell McClenaghan, Kyle Mills, Tim Southee and Trent Boult means opportunities will be scarce.

Saturday 12 July
So, the punishment wasn't so bad. I got a dirty long lecture about respecting other people's things and how I should always ask if I can borrow something instead of just taking it.
.....that made me start to feel a little bad about taking Margie's stuffed pig. I know she's been just wretched without it this last week. I think I'll go and give it back to her. Maybe we can be friends again too. I mean, we have been friends since we were six; it would be a shame to ruin a good streak like that.
On the love front, things are totally lame. I haven't seen Jake since the Dr. Who night and I have no idea when I'll see him again. This love thing is a bit harder than I expected. I'm trying to concoct a plan as we speak. So far, it involves Knight's dog leash and a pay phone; more details later.
I'm off to see Margie! Maybe she can help with the Jake-Plan. Oh, and hopefully she has something to eat at her house; I'm staaaarved.

On this day we stand hand in hand
nations together, remembering forever
the lives that were lost to let us live
our future; we have our thanks to give.
To the boys, so young, who joined up to the cause
who said 'it'll be over by christmas' as they marched off to war
laughing and joking as they stood side by side with their friends
turning to fear and they started to fall.
Left behind, waiting, were the families they loved
who lived each day in fear, with their fingers crossed
hoping the knock on the door won't happen
hoping the letter they dread won't be written.
For many, this letter appeared on their doorsteps;
unopened, one by one, they fell to the floor
grieving, missing, their brave soldier boy
whose lives had been taken for their familes to live.
No matter the nation or the side that they fought on
brothers, fathers, husbands and sons; they were all still just people
living and fighting in trenches of mud;
all the same, no matter where they were born.
The boys of the first war are not all we remember
for it is not the only war we have suffered and mourned for.
Rememeber those in the blitz over the nation
the civilian casualties that lost their lives too.
And then to the men we have lost in recent years
with families still mourning, will wishing they could walk through the door
But they are now immortal in the hearts of others;
forever young as we all grow old.
So on the eleventh day, fall silent and remember
the time the guns fell silent all those years ago
and think of those young lives that were lost
the people we will never know that gave their freedom for us


text: One sister, Bunny DeBarge, and four brothers, Mark, James, Randy and El DeBarge, combined to form this family group in Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA, in 1978. Signed to Motown Records in 1979, they were viewed and marketed as successors to the young Jackson Five, a ploy helped by the physical similarity between El DeBarge and Michael Jackson. After several years of grooming from Motown's A&R department, the group (then known as the DeBarges) were launched with the album The DeBarges in March 1981, and gained their initial soul hit 18 months later. 'I Like It' repeated this success and crossed over into the pop charts, while two 1983 hits, 'All This Love' and 'Time Will Reveal', established DeBarge as one of America's most popular acts in the teenage market. A support slot on Luther Vandross' 1984 US tour brought them to a wider audience, and in 1985 they scored their biggest hit with the seductive 'Rhythm Of The Night', taken from the soundtrack to Motown's movie The Last Dragon, in which the group also appeared. This single reached number 3 in the US charts, a success that the follow-up release, 'Who's Holding Donna Now"' came close to repeating. Lead vocalist El DeBarge had become synonymous with the group's name, and his decision to go solo in February 1986 effectively sabotaged the group's career. In 1987, Bunny also departed when the rest of the group signed to Striped Horse Records. In the event, only Mark and James (who had briefly been married to Janet Jackson in the mid-80s) appeared on the resulting Bad Boys, by which time their commercial impetus had been lost. The group's wholesome image was seriously damaged by the arrest and conviction of their other brothers Bobby and Chico DeBarge in 1988 on cocaine trafficking charges.
