New England-Canada Review: Carnival Glory Cruise Review by mommyloons2009
Overall Member Rating
New England-Canada Review
Destination: Canada & New England
Embarkation: New York (Manhattan)
We live near Baltimore so we drove to NY. It was fine getting into NY but with 9/11 the next day it took a while to get to the terminal. We parked right at the terminal a bit pricey but was a great location. We checked in and then waited to board which took us no more then 45 minutes with a place to sit. Our first cruise with Carnival 10 Years ago with 2 small kids was a nightmare but since then things seem like they are pretty easy to get on the ship.
We went to eat which was exactly what I expected then went to hang out in the Serenity lounge ( a nice addition) till we could get in our room. Room was clean and the Steward introduced himself to our husband. The only time I had an issue was the last night the Steward didn't turn down our room. Other then that everything was great.
I have to admit, I More didn't love Any time dining. The wait was to long and ended up eating the same time as when we had late dining. We ending up meeting a mother and son and ate with them at the late seating. The food was good. The last night I couldn't decide what I wanted so the waiter bought me three dishes.
The Ports: Like I said before this cruise was more for my husband so the ports were okay to me. I would rather be on a beach, shopping at a straw market, snorkeling (get the picture). My favorite port was Halifax. There was alot do do there. I had never been to Boston and the only thing I wanted to do (the swan boats) wasn't operating when we got to the gardens. We took an excursion to Kennibunkport and really liked that. St John was the least of my favorite ports. I should have done the zipline at the reversing falls.
The Entertainment: The entertainment was okay. Typical Carnival shows. I feel like the 5 Carnival cruises I have been on, the entertainment hadn't changed that much. The hypnotist was fantastic though. I do want to say that the review before said that activities were closed due to rough seas. They pretty much made it sound like that was bogus. The seas were rough the last sea day. I can understand why the outside stuff was closed. I even had to take a bonine and I don't usually get seasick.
Departing: It was just what I expected. Our car was parked right there so we were on the way home by 11:30. Worked for me.
In Conclusion: I had a good time. No kids. Who wouldn't? You have to make the best of any situation. My husband and I are pretty easy to please. Less

Michael Jackson's Fiscal Disaster
Jaci Rae
When you live in Never Never Land, aren't things supposed to be fun? According to Michael Jackson's latest financial woes the answer is no. Earning large amounts of money since he was five, how can Michael Jackson have a fiscal fiasco?
It boils down to spending versus watching the bottom line. Although Jackson's bottom line included 50% ownership in The Beatles Catalogue, a stake in the Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan Catalogues estimated to be worth ˝ a billion dollars, not to mention his own catalogue how can anyone go broke? By not paying attention to the bottom line.
Here is what Ms. Rae has to say, "In the highly competitive world of the music industry, it is never wise to sail alone. Equipping yourself with the necessary resources can ensure safe passage through the often rough waters of show business, and lead the aspiring musician straight to musical success."
So what are some good choices for those seeking out high profile careers and the money earned in those careers?
Seek out great financial advice.
Learn from others who are where you want to be.
Contact those people you respect and admire and seek out their advice and get the names and contact information of accountant's and financial managers who have helped them.
Read veraciously on the Internet and in the library.
Most of all watch the bottom line. Oprah still signs her own checks and watches the accounting ledger like a hawk. If you don't do this, you will be giving your money away and walk away with nothing or bankrupt.
Jaci Rae has been talking about the bottom line in the music industry or any industry for that matter for several years. Countless hours on her radio show, aptly name The Jaci Rae – Rae of Hope Show and in her best selling music industry business manuals, The Indie Guide to Music, Marketing and Money and The Ultimate Guide to Music Success, Ms. Rae goes into great detail to help the struggling artist or star struck hopeful learn how to avoid financial disaster and still keep the creative juices flowing.
Perhaps Michael Jackson should pony up the mere $25.95 for one of these books and tune into her radio show every week. In any industry it is imperative to watch the bottom line so you won't fall off the cliff.
Michael, if you're reading this, seek out a financial counselor instead of the "yes" people you have around you. In the long run they aren't helping you at all. But most of all, forget the spending sprees, you've run out of quarters to go on the rides at Never Never Land.

Well, here it is! The long awaited Newsvine Movie that I promised so long ago. Because of the length and size of the movie it is being released in two segments. This will allow for a popcorn and pop Intermission and a trip to wherever else you may want to go. The first segment was starred by Brad LeClerc. Brad. was very gracious in helping me figure out how to transfer files from one place to another and offered hosting and editing help but I relented and am using the old tried and true. But new to me. Brad LeClerc is a riot with his pimp uniform and room handily filled with all he needs to exist.
The second segment is MsCyprah and I promise you you will love this one. I wish the last question had been the first but it is worth waiting for to find who her movie idols are.
This production could not have been made without the assistance of both MsCyprah and Greg. Calvin Tang approved use of the Newsvine Logo. Transportation to filming locations was furnished by Always Remember Artworks. Since the film did not permit space for credits, I insert them here: Director, Old Fogey; Screenwriter, Jerry Firman; Cameraman, Samsonite tripod; Sound, Mr. Dolby; Producer, Sam Firman; Casting, Gerald Firman; Scene Grip, Samuel Gerald Firman. A Film by the Old Fogey for Always Remember Artworks in association with Cow Corners Films.
I hope the wait was worth it. If you can't comment on the Director and Producer please consider the Actors and Actresses. BTW. Part of the delay was the Writer's Strike.

Magnetic base coating
- Supplier:
- Resene
Resene has a magnetic base coating to allow customers to turn their walls into magnetic boards suitable for use with a wide range of magnets. With double the "attraction" of existing magnetic coatings, this magnetic coating is loaded with iron oxides for maximum magnetic effect.
Good old fridge magnets can be stuck onto the new magnetic finish with ease, a feat that is not so easy with the less magnetic finishes that have been available previously.
It's easy to turn any surface into a magnetic masterpiece. Prepare and prime the surface. Apply Resene Magnetic Magic in two smooth coats by brush, hi-solids roller or spray. While it can be applied in one coat, it may be difficult to apply a sufficiently thick coating with a single application. Roller application will result in a slight orange peel effect. The smoother the finish and the thicker the application, the stronger the magnetic effect will be.
To avoid visible coating thickness differences between magnetic and non-magnetic areas, it is recommended that a complete wall or area be coated or that the edge of the magnetic area be decorated or framed to clearly delineate the available magnetic area.
Resene SpaceCote Low Sheen waterborne enamel is the recommended topcoat for maximum durability and a choice of over 1500 Resene colours is available. Resene Magnetic Magic is designed to be overcoated and may become damaged if used as a magnetic board without topcoat protection.
Resene Magnetic Magic is ideal for use in interior areas where a magnetic area is required to affix magnets. The inclusion of iron oxides means that the product is extremely heavy for its volume, so all products are packed into a 1L can size for ease of handling.
Resene Magnetic Magic is available exclusively from Resene ColorShops and resellers.

QE2 Launched
Sequel to Elizabeth announced
1998 was a good year for the first Queen Elizabeth. Not only was her reign remembered fondly in Shakespeare In Love, but two actresses were nominated for Oscars for their portrayal of Good Queen Bess. Judi Dench landed Best Supporting Actress for her scene-stealing turn, but Cate Blanchett's more sustained performance was equally good in the title role of Shekhar Kapur's Elizabeth. Now the director has announced that he plans to make a sequel to the Oscar-nominated biopic, with Blanchett again expected to take the throne. The film is currently titled Golden Age, and will tell the tale of Elizabeth's middle years on the throne. "It is about the battle between her life as a monarch and her personal life," Kapur said. "It ends in the destruction of the Spanish Armada on the larger level." Well, it all makes sense to us. Queen Elizabeth was one of history's largest characters, and certainly deserves a good look at her most successful years on the throne after she had firmly established herself (as we saw in the original Kapur film) and before she descended into bitterness and age (as we saw in Dench's wickedly funny performance). We're also hoping for a good look at the battle against the Spanish Armada, and we wouldn't be entirely surprised if a certain Queen of Scots was involved there somewhere. The script should be ready in six months, but the start date depends on the schedules of director and star. Kapur is also working on an adaptation of Nelson Mandela's autobiography Long Walk to Freedom and on Isaac Asimov's classic Foundation trilogy, while Cate Blanchett is soon to appear in Wes Anderson's The Life Aquatic and Martin Scorsese's The Aviator. Let's hope that she can find time for merrie olde Englande in between all of that.

Five ways to be in charge of your career
No job is 100% safe. Some industries are more recession-proof than others, but this recession has cut swathes through public and private sectors alike. From the boardroom to the factory floor, from offices to showrooms, none of us know when or where the axe is next going to fall. News reports telling us about green shoots of recovery or initiatives to ease youth and graduate unemployment don't mean much when we're facing forced pay cuts or lay-offs.

The importance of being visible
Not only can job applicants research potential companies on the internet, but people making the hiring decisions can - and do - research the applicants. A name search on Google will bring up an instant wealth of information - whether comments on a forum, a facebook page or team sporting results.

Avoiding cheap clients
From the 14-year-old budding games developer operating out of his bedroom to monolithic public institutions, "cheap" clients who want a top-class service at rock-bottom rates aren't good news for a freelancer. On the one hand, you don't want to turn down work in a difficult economy - particularly if you've only just started your business and want to build up a portfolio of projects and network of clients. On the other, you probably can't afford to work for clients who are only driven by cost.

Dealing with gaps in your work history
During the last recession, two things happened to me - one banal and one life-changing. The banal was that I lost my job. It wasn't a great job - the pay was low and the career prospects slim to none - but it led me to my life-changing realisation: I was fed up earning a pittance in a cold, damp city and I wanted to get out and see the world. If I'd been more clued-up then, I might have thought about how a gap on my CV was going to look to a future employer. But in my innocence I thought that everyone would consider it the positive, life-changing experience that it undoubtedly was. Fortunately, I never worked for an employer who disagreed, but if you have gaps in your work history, here are four things to consider.

From freelancer to employee?
A friend of mine has been freelancing and building up his network of contacts. He's been particularly successful in the last year or so, succeeding in carving himself out a good niche locally.

Three Liveshop Adds A New Dimension To Online Customer Service [Video]
Touchscreens and video chat augment the online shopping experience.
Swedish cellphone company Three(3) have unveiled a new conceptual customer service interface that is unavoidably evocative of Minority Report.
"The salesperson can drag a product onto the screen, show its features such as different colors and monthly cost and then drag it into the shopping cart"
Time's Techland reports that the development of this interface was prompted by the realisation that
"Enough people were visiting the existing online store, but not buying, to make Three think that perhaps budding customers would buy if they were offered a little help"
The device taps into the fact that much more of our communication with one another is relayed via body language and extra-verbal cues that simply the words we exchange with one another. This means that a much more comprehensive customer service and sales experience can be offered by 3's Liveshop. Questions remain over how ergonomically friendly this interface is on the sales agents and what will happen when the Chat Roulette crowd hear word of it, but it nevertheless opens up a fascinating case study for how online sales might be maximised.

Outside of the offensive line, where upgrades are needed across the board, the biggest position of need this offseason for the Chicago Bears is at linebacker. Since 2004, the Bears have trotted out the duo of Brian Urlacher and Lance Briggs, they of 15 combined Pro Bowls. Yet Urlacher's future is very uncertain, as he'll soon be a free agent coming off knee and hamstring injuries that depleted the 35-year-old of his playmaking ability last year.
Chicago GM Phil Emery has a tough decision to make in the next few weeks. Does he cut the face of the franchise or hang onto a player whose decline in play could be a hindrance going forward? With a new coaching staff on board, one that has no ties to Urlacher, it's very possible the Bears will soon part ways with Urlacher in an effort to start fresh under new defensive coordinator Mel Tucker.
Adding to the difficulty at linebacker is the fact both Nick Roach and Geno Hayes are also free agents. This means, of the team's top four linebackers from 2012, only Briggs is currently under contract.
LB Nick Roach
Jerry Lai/USA TODAY Sports
The key here is Roach (6-1, 234). He has been the strong-side starter the past two seasons and filled in for Urlacher at middle linebacker the final month of the 2012 campaign. A former undrafted free agent out of Northwestern in 2007, Roach has spent his entire career with the Bears, starting 59 games in six seasons. He's not an overly explosive playmaker but Roach is a versatile, smart and experienced defender who can play multiple positions.
But is he a franchise player, the type the team can build around going forward? In all honesty, for as much value as Roach brings, that answer to that question is no. He's not going to lose you many games and his intelligence usually has him in the right position, yet he lacks the explosiveness and overall athleticism to be a game changer.
That said, Roach is a better option at this point than Urlacher. With Hayes likely to test the free agent waters, the Bears face the possibility of having to cobble together a new linebacker corps, with Briggs the only returning piece, through free agency and the draft.
That's not an ideal option, which is why the club must make a decision between Roach and Urlacher. If Urlacher's days are over in Chicago, Emery has to be very aggressive in re-signing Roach. The 27-year-old is a pure 4-3 linebacker with experience making calls and leading the huddle. He's not a Pro Bowler but he'll provide the continuity the Bears need as they head into this transitional phase.
At the very least, if the club makes significant linebacker upgrades with high draft picks and well-paid free agents this offseason, Roach's versatility would make him an ideal No. 4, being able to fill in at multiple positions.
Roach isn't flashy but he could be a crucial piece in Chicago's defense for the short term. Losing him and Urlacher is a gap the Bears shouldn't try to cross. Get Roach signed for a few more years, at a relatively cheap price, and go from there.

A total of 20 marsh fritillary butterflies were counted in one day at the Devon Wildlife Trust's Vealand Farm nature reserve near Holsworthy.
The butterfly has also been seen in record numbers at other reserves.
Conservationists say it shows that with correct management of habitat, rare creatures can return and thrive again.
It is classed as a priority species in the UK's biodiversity action plan and its European threat status is listed as "vulnerable".
So the numbers spotted in Devon this summer have come as a pleasant surprise to conservationists.
The Devon Wildlife Trust reports record numbers at reserves including Volehouse Moor, Mambury Moor and Stowford Moor.
There have also been large numbers at Dunsdon national nature reserve.
Gary Pilkington of the trust said: "We took over at the Vealand reserve four or five years ago.
"With grassland, you need to graze it lightly and burn it sometimes during the winter.
"The field where the butterflies have returned hadn't been grazed or burned for years. But that's what we've done."
Culm grassland
The new style of field management led to a return of the plants which the butterfly caterpillars feed on.
Mr Pilkington sad: "I didn't expect the marsh fritillary to come back, to be honest.
"I've been told that they haven't been seen here for 28 years. The most conservative estimate is 10-15 years.
"It's fantastic news, and it's all down to the habitat - the culm grassland - which is also good for other insects and plants such as orchids."

In Part 2 of my conversation with Warren Hansen, we'll dive deep into the Winter Olympics. Warren will share how curling came to be a demonstration sport in 1988 and the efforts involved to secure status as a full medal event in 1998. You might be surprised to hear how it was nearly dropped, because of a Canadian, and may have been saved by a Japanese billionaire. Warren will also address the controversy surrounding the Curling Trials for those Calgary Olympics and the clash with Ed Werenich. He'll return to the 1974 Silver Broom and explain how it shaped his future. Warren shares the challenges of putting a Brier in an NHL arena, creation of the Continental Cup and Mixed Doubles, the "Brier Boycott" era and his thoughts on the modern game.
Next Episode: Ed Lukowich
Errol Klinck, better known as "Colonel", started curling in Regina with his father. His grandfather, Ozzie Barkwell, skipped the team representing Western Canada at the first Brier, held in Toronto in 1927. After moving to Winnipeg, Colonel landed a sparing role, filling in for Bryan Wood and helping the Duguid rink capture the Birks Trophy (Main Event) in the 1971 MCA Bonspiel. Errol would skip his own team to the same title in 1974, winning a berth into the provincial Tankard and the Calcutta at the Assiniboine Memorial. The Klinck rink of 1985 had been together a few years, mostly competing in the A Group mens league at the Assiniboine. After escaping club playdowns, and managing to win a city zone berth, they were heading to the provincial Tankard in Dauphin, seeded last out of 32 teams in the double-knockout event. Surprising everyone (including themselves), they began the Saturday night A-Side final as the only undefeated team, with just two wins remaining to capture four Purple Hearts and a trip to the Brier.
Errol shares memories of that Tankard, grandpa Ozzie, and curling in Regina and Winnipeg. He talks about the Eaton Curling Club, reading ice at the Assiniboine, and reminisces on the teams he battled through the years.
For more stories of Winnipeg curling, check out Sean Grassie's "King of the Rings" and "Curling Capital: Winnipeg and the Roarin' Game, 1876 to 1988" by Morris Mott and John Allardyce.
Next Week: Warren Hansen
Neil Houston is now an Event Manager for Curling Canada. He has been instrumental in bringing the Brier to large NHL arenas and showcasing curling at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. Over forty years ago, he teamed with second Glen Jackson, lead Kelly Stearne and skip Paul Gowsell to form perhaps the greatest junior team in history. The Gowsell squad stormed through the Canadian and World Juniors, while combating mens teams on the cashpiel circuit...and winning. To the older crew cut players of that era, the strange pants, long hair and beards were a small annoyance compared to their use of push brooms rather than corn.
Neil shares stories of the Gowsell rink and helps separate legend from fact. He also talks about his time on the Lukowich rink and how "Fast" Eddy went from playing second to skipping them to a Brier, Worlds and Olympic medal. We'll hear about 1997 when the CCA gambled by putting a Brier in the Calgary Saddledome, and contemplate the death of the hair broom in competitive curling.
Video from the 1976 World Junior Championships can be found at The Curling History Blog. You can read about the Gowsell and Lukowich rinks in Jean Sonmor's "Burned by the Rock" and "The Brier" by Bob Weeks.
Next Week: Errol "Colonel" Klinck
Ernie Richardson still lives in Saskatchewan, a province he represented at the Brier 5 times. In 1959, Ernie and his family rink of brother Garnet "Sam" Richardson and cousins Arnold and Wes Richardson won their first Canadian Championship. They were swiftly flown overseas to compete as Team Canada in the first ever World Championship (originally known as the Scotch Cup) against Willie Young of Scotland. The Richardsons repeated as Brier champions in 1960 and '62. Wes departed due to back troubles in 1963, but with Mel Perry as his replacement, they captured a fourth Brier and Scotch Cup. In the 1964 Brier they fell 1 game short in the standings to winner Lyall Dagg from British Columbia.
Ernie shares stories from his early days and the formation of the famous Richardson Rink, to their Brier triumphs and International experiences, including the startled reception to a blank end during the first Scotch Cup . We'll hear about Ernie meeting John Wayne, his battles with Hector Gervais and learn how to succeed in a Calcutta (don't enter).
For more information on Ernie "The King" Richardson, check out "The Stone Age" by Vera Pezer, "The Brier" by Bob Weeks, and "Tales of a Curling Hack" by Doug Maxwell. There are also a number of older books Ernie helped author, including "Curling, an Authoritative Handbook of Techniques & Strategy of the Ancient Game" with Joyce McKee and Doug Maxwell and "Curling: Techniques and Strategy" with Mark Mulvoy.

ESPN is reporting that the famous four-letter network is closing in on a massive deal to televise a number of Mountain West football and basketball games.
ESPN's Brett McMurphy reported Thursday afternoon that the recently reinforced Mountain West is getting ready to sign a seven-year deal that could add up to big money with its current deal with CBS.
The deal brings the total value of the Mountain West's media rights deal, including its existing deal with CBS Sports Network, up to about $116 million, or $18 million annually, sources said.
Of the 22 football games to be televised on ESPN, all six of Boise State's home games will be included. The conference still has to negotiate the rights to its conference championship football game, which would bring more revenue to the league.
From a local perspective, that's obviously a big windfall to Utah State, which was in the red only a few years ago.
The program is joining the Mountain West next year. Besides a huge boost to media revenue for the school itself - $18 million would be a lot, lot more than the school makes now - the football team will get more exposure by virtue of playing Boise State every year and possibly competing for future conference championships on ESPN.
McMurphy said the terms of the deal include televising up to 22 football games and 25 men's basketball games, which would also be a nice plus for Stew Morrill and his program. It's unclear when the deal might become official.

Weekend's best dance bets: Emancipator, Orchard Lounge, MONO>STEREO and more
Catch Emancipator tonight at the Ogden Theatre and tomorrow night at the Aggie in Fort Collins.
Britt Chester
Welcome to weekend! Ready to get down? Good. You've come to the right place. There's plenty of dancing to be done this weekend and we've got the drop on all the best places to get your groove on and who'll be providing the soundtrack: Emancipator's at the Ogden tonight and the Aggie tomorrow night, Orchard Lounge and Human Agency are at Cervantes' tomorrow night and more. Keep reading to see what awaits you on this weekend's Dance Card.

EMANCIPATOR @ OGDEN THEATRE | FRI, 11/8/12 Ten years ago, Douglas Appling -- better known in most musical circles as producer and live P.A. impresario Emancipator -- picked up some production software and started playing around. He's come a long way since then, touring and sharing stages with some of his biggest influences (Bonobo among them), and he's proven through his sweeping, Eastern-tinged trip-hop tunes that downtempo's heyday didn't end when Massive Attack went mainstream.
Emancipator's first album, Soon It Will Be Cold Enough, gained some attention in Japan, and his song "Maps" was played at the Beijing Olympics; his second effort, Safe in the Steep Cliffs, proved his ability to harness the haunting poignancy of instruments with deliberately placed effects, generating a gorgeous soundscape in which you can easily lose yourself. Emancipator will conclude his three-night Colorado run (he played last night at the Fox Theatre in Boulder) tomorrow night at the Aggie Theatre in Fort Collins.

As regular visitors to Cringeville know, I'm a big fan of freedom of speech. The First Amendment is far and away my favorite (though I'm also partial to the 4th, 13th, 15th, and 21st). So I'm especially glad I don't live in Thailand or Kansas, where what you say or do on cellphones and social networks can land you in hot water -- or a prison cell.
Let's take Thailand first. Last week, a retired truck driver was sentenced to 20 years in prison for sending four text messages that were judged insulting to the Thai monarchy. We don't know what messages 61-year-old Ampon Tangnoppakul sent -- in part because the mere act of repeating them would expose reporters to prosecution.

He alleges he didn't send any messages, he does not even know how to text, and his phone was in the repair shop at the time the texts were sent. No matter -- any treatment deemed less than reverent to 83-year-old King Bhumibol Adulyadej and his bride Queen Sirikit can earn you five years per offense.
It gets worse. If someone else makes a disparaging remark about the King and Queen on Facebook, and you click that ubiquitous Like button, you can plan to spend between 3 and 15 years in a dingy Bangkok dungeon. At least, according to Russian news site RT.com, which claims to be quoting the Thai Minister of Information.
It's good that sort of thing can't happen here, right? Well, allow me to introduce you to Sam Brownback's Kansas. Last week, 18-year-old high school senior Emma Sullivan took part in a Youth in Government field trip to the Kansas state capitol. As a joke to one of her friends, she sent the following tweet:
Just made mean comments at gov brownback and told him he sucked, in person #heblowsalot
Sullivan didn't actually make any comments to Brownback. But that didn't stop school officials from hauling her to the principal's office and demanding that she apologize to the governor.

Orchard House/ Concord: Garden
This garden is on one side of the house-- opposite Bronson's school. It's very pretty, and late summer flowers are still blooming. I can imagine this being where the girls would play, although I'm quite certain this garden was planted when the house was restored.

First it was kangaroos, now the ACT Government is working out whether it needs a control program for deer, as they encroach on the suburbs of Canberra.
The government is doing the first territory study of deer populations due to a growing number of sightings of the introduced species.
The Territory and Municipal Services directorate said sightings were typically in rural areas around the Namadgi and Tidbinbilla nature reserves but there had been anecdotal reports of deer closer to urban areas near Mount Ainslie.
The study comes as protesters continued their bid in the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal on Tuesday to stop a cull of 1455 eastern grey kangaroos.
The cull had been due to start last month until Animal Liberation ACT and the Victorian-based Australian Society for Kangaroos won a temporary stay through the tribunal.
The Minister who oversees the cull, Greens MLA Shane Rattenbury, was attacked by a kangaroo while on a morning run in Ainslie in May.
Parks and Conservation Services director Daniel Iglesias said the ACT had not previously collected data on deer populations and was conducting a six-month study to decide if a control program was needed.
Mr Iglesias said the directorate believed three species – sambar deer, fallow deer and red deer – were present in the territory.
"Before we think about what we need to do about them we need to understand how many we've got and where they are," he said.
"What we've been finding recently is there's been more and more reports coming through so it might be the distribution is expanding but we don't know for sure.
"We have had anecdotal reports of people seeing them closer into urban areas.
"The latest report we had was someone had seen one near Mt Ainslie."
Mr Iglesias said the study would map sightings of deer in the ACT over time to determine whether there had been population growth and a shift in where the animals were located.
He said the study would be completed by the end of the year and the directorate was encouraging Canberrans to report any sightings.
"Once we do that we can target a control program – there's no point talking control until we know where they are and how many there are," he said.
Mr Iglesias said deer were "absolutely" a pest that had the "capacity to destroy the natural environment by what's called wallowing – which is similar to what pigs do."

As the fucking continues Mate decides he needs to feel some cock in his ass, so it is all change as he rides on Radan's cock and Arny switches to fuck Paul. Steve bends over to suck on Mate's cock as well. Then as he bounces on Radan's cock Mate leans back and sucks Steve. Everyone is getting so hot from all that fucking and they move once more, with Steve shooting his cum all over his body as he gets fucked hard and fast by Radan. Meanwhile Mate has his dick deep in Paul's hole, giving it to him good. For his cum shot Mate shoots his load all over Radan's hot chest, followed by Paul doing the same. Arny sits down next to Radan and wanks himself to a climax too. What a great scene with 5 very sexy guys.
Marcel Susil is aged 20 and lives in Konetopy. He is a student who enjoys sports, swimming and athletics. What a fine looking guy Marcel is. After his interview he stands and quickly removes his tee-shirt to expose a very good body. His hands roam all over his check and down to his pants. He opens them and slides inside. Then the pants are pushed down and Marcel gropes inside his underwear, before pushing them down to show his low hanging balls and big, soft cock. He takes hold of his cock and starts to wank it. As he does so that cock swells and grows. It gets good and hard, a big, thick cock. Marcel sits on the sofa, leaning back and continues wanking on his thick meat. His balls rest nicely between his spread legs as he wanks himself and runs a hand over his chest. Lifting his legs Marcel shows off his ass hole, as the cheeks spread will. He continues his wanking as we inspect that awesome hole. A helping hand arrives and oils Marcel's hot body and then takes over the wanking of that big, thick dick. Marcel turns over, onto his knees, ass to camera and the hands oil his back and ass. The hands roam all over that sexy ass as the big, heavy balls hang down. The cock is pulled back between the legs and wanked as we inspect that tight hole. A finger slips into the hole a little before Marcel turns over and wanks himself to a big, creamy load. After a lovely show he goes off to the shower to clean up.
Karel Sanak is aged 23 and lives in Rokycany. He is self-employed and likes sports, martial arts and wrestling. What a great looking guy Karel is. In this shoot we see his beautiful smile, as he unwraps his awesome body for us. He shows off his chest, in a series of very nice poses, before turning to give us a view of a very hot ass, framed by nice tan lines. Fully naked Karel turns and displays a nice, soft cock. It doesn't take long until that cock is nice and hard, with Karel standing to really show it off. Then it is time for some more of that ass, this time with the cheeks spread to expose Karel's tight hole. This is one very hot guy in a very good shoot indeed.

By Aaron Beard, AP Sports Writer
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. Bambale Osby dropped to the court with his hands covering his face. He knew his basket had given Maryland the lead late. He heard the horn as North Carolina's final desperation shot clanged off the rim.
Yet he still couldn't believe it.
"It didn't feel real, man," Osby said. "It was like, 'Did this really just happen?"'
The same could be said of the top-ranked - and formerly unbeaten - Tar Heels.
Osby's layup with 21 seconds left helped Maryland stun North Carolina 82-80 on Saturday, giving the Terrapins a shocking win that will likely end the Tar Heels' run atop the polls.
James Gist finished with 22 points and 13 rebounds for the Terrapins (12-7, 2-2 Atlantic Coast Conference), who blew an 11-point lead midway through the second half but still held on in a back-and-forth finish to win here for the first time in five years.
Maryland hardly seemed the ideal candidate to stand up to North Carolina at the Smith Center. This was, after all, the same team that lost at home to Ohio and American in consecutive games in December. And the Tar Heels (18-1, 3-1) - off to their best start in two decades - had been rolling to big victories behind their crowd-pleasing and fast-paced transition attack.
But the Terrapins played tough and physical defense on Tyler Hansbrough, cutting off the All-American and making the Tar Heels work hard elsewhere for good looks in a largely halfcourt game. Maryland also showed the fortitude to bounce back after North Carolina pushed ahead by four in the final 2 1/2 minutes.
"I think our players really believed that if we could execute really good on offense, we had a chance to win the game," Maryland coach Gary Williams said.
The Tar Heels certainly had proven they could win the close ones, from Wayne Ellington's last-second 3-pointer in a 90-88 overtime win at Clemson two weeks ago to Wednesday's 83-82 win at Georgia Tech. But this time, they couldn't take advantage of several chances to answer Osby's layup.
After Ellington missed a 3-pointer and a driving shot, North Carolina could only watch as Hansbrough's last gasp 3-pointer bounced off the rim at the horn as the Terrapins ran to midcourt to celebrate.
Hansbrough had 17 points and 14 rebounds to lead North Carolina, which shot just 38 percent and went 7-for-23 from 3-point range. The Tar Heels were off to their best start since winning 21 in a row in the 1985-86 season, and came in averaging 98 points per game at home.
But on this day, North Carolina never led by more than four points.
"I haven't done a very good job with this basketball team the last couple of weeks," North Carolina coach Roy Williams said. "We've been living on the edge, and it caught up with us today."
The Tar Heels fought back from a 52-41 deficit midway through the second half to take a 78-74 lead on a three-point play by Danny Green with 2 1/2 minutes left. But Greivis Vasquez answered with a runner in the lane followed by two free throws to tie it at 78.
Then - after two free throws by Gist and a basket by Hansbrough - the 6-foot-8, 250-pound Osby found himself guarded by the 6-5 Green inside on a switch. Gist sent the ball to Osby, who spun away from an off-balance Green as he fell down and dropped it in for the 82-80 lead.
The Terrapins' defense - the stingiest in the ACC for field goal percentage - helped them hang on in the final frantic seconds.
"When the red light came on and the clock said zero-zero-zero, that's a feeling I'm not going to forget," Gist said. "I felt like we could win this game, but I never realized how it would feel."
Landon Milbourne finished with 14 points for Maryland, while Vasquez had 12 points and 11 assists. Osby finished with 12 points and five rebounds while matching up much of the way with Hansbrough.
Hansbrough went just 6-for-15 from the field while constantly finding himself surrounded by red jerseys, perhaps best illustrated when he had to go up amid three defenders to score in the paint and tie it at 80 with 51 seconds left. North Carolina managed only one significant offensive flurry, scoring 18 points over 4 1/2 minutes to erase the big deficit and tie it at 59 on Hansbrough's jumper with 10:56 left.
From there, the teams traded baskets in a finish that saw eight lead changes before Osby's layup put Maryland ahead for good.
"We're all just disappointed," said Ellington, who had 14 points. "We know we're better than that and we have a lot of work to do."

AG Cooper still concerned despite drop in crime rate
There was some good news announced last week as the North Carolina crime rate for 2012 was down—in fact, at its lowest rate since 1976. Attorney General Roy Cooper says the numbers don't tell the whole story, however, as the index crime rate does include not all reported crimes.
"These statistics don't include meth labs; they don't include prescription drug abuse, or child pornography."
According to the N.C. Department of Justice, those issues are challenges that continue to grow:
• State Bureau of Investigation agents raided a record number of meth labs in the state last year (460) as the simpler, one-pot method for making small amounts of the drug continued to spread.
• Prescription drug abuse now kills more people than illegal drug use in North Carolina, with more than 1,100 North Carolinians dying from prescription drug overdoses last year.
• Cybertips of possible online child pornography and exploitation reported to the SBI's Computer Crimes Unit by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children have more than tripled in the past two years.
Cooper said to continue an effective fight against those crimes it will require more work and resources.
"It's critically important that our congressional, legislative, city, and county elected officials realize that we have to invest in law and enforcement and technology. When you ask people how they want their tax dollars invested, public safety ranks very high on the list."
Cooper also pointed to the overburdened State Crime Lab, which saw a 15 percent increase in case submissions to more than 42,000 for fiscal year 2011-12 .
That is one key reason behind his push for funding to develop a full crime lab in Western North Carolina.
The 2012 crime rate was down in Macon County, with a decrease in property crimes, but a slight uptick in the number of violent crimes reported.

text: Nebraskans spent fourteen times as much on energy in 2014 as was spent in 1970 even though the amounts spent on energy in 2014 and in 1970 both accounted for 11.5 percent of consumer income. The percentages are equal. Before the oil embargo of 1973–74, annual energy expenditures were roughly an 11–percent share of personal income. During the price shocks of the 1970s and early 1980s, energy's percent share of income rose to peak at 16.6 percent. Each year after peaking, the percentage steadily fell until it was under 10 percent. The percentage went as low as 7.7 percent in 1999. Then in 2000, the percentage started rising, and in 2005, energy's percent share of income was in double digits again. In 2009, the percentage dropped 20 percent to 10.0 percent—a major factor was the decrease in energy prices.

Butaro Hospital
The architects studio was brought in by PIH in 2008 to help plan and design a first-rate facility that would help reverse these conditions.
In the design of the hospital, MDG and PIH sought to create a more holistic model of architecture that included the design of an appropriate, state of the art hospital while also fully choreographing the process of construction to employ, educate and empower the local community.

Tactical Clothing
It really escapes me as to why these companies in mainstream outdoor stores design tactical clothing to look like tactical clothing. Isn't the point of CC to not alert anyone you are in posession of a firearm, knife or ammo? :confused:
When you dress in black miltary looking clothing and a black backpack with loops for bullets you might as well wear a sign thats says "Guns AND Ammo Here.....please check me out!":rolleyes: I like to blend...not stand out.
And by the way the "loops" on the backpack are not for bullets. Which I have one I use for my laptop among other things the loops are to add more storage or Molle accessories.
One last thing, if you where to go hiking you may need the extra pockets in the "Tactical" pants.
Buy a pair of Blackie Collins Toters jeans. They have built in holster pockets and you can't blend in any better. They cost about $90 a pair, but wear like iron!
Have to agree my vehicle has no stickers on it. And wearing a tan vest especially in the summer screams I HAVE A GUN. My tactical clothing consists of blue jeans or carhartt pants and a shirt that will cover my pistol. My tell would be if I am wearing a button up shirt i never button the last button.
I've already checked it out. My new 1911 conceals perfectly under my Hawaiian shirts. Silk with coconut buttons. The ultimate in concealment.
And in the winter time, a jacket. What else?
Hawaiian shirt, you don't need to paint a target on your back. Just joking
I usually wear a Blue Stone vest ~ 10 pockets, two ccw holsters inside, more pockets, 5 mag holders & 5 cartridge holders, plus a small faded flag in front. Great comfort.

The Creators Project: "SKIN" Transforms Your Emotions Into Sound And Color Through Sweat Data
This installation turns the human body into a visual storytelling tool.
This week, Harvest Works gallery in New York exhibited an installation by audiovisual artist, Claudia Robles, that gets under your skin… literally. SKIN is a project that measures gallery visitors' skin moisture using a GSR (Galvanic Skin Response) interface and transforms that data into sound and images. Psychological states such as stress, nervousness, and even arousal become observable, external information. Be careful who you test it out around.
"I'm interested in making the human body visual and audible," Robles told The Creators Project. "We normally don't hear or perceive our body, and this work is a way of making us aware of it and to enhance its potential as a visual and musical instrument." With this exhibition, people can affect the video, sound, and overall environment of a gallery space purely based on their own emotional states.
The artist originally premiered a similar installation in 2012, but Harvest Works contacted her and said they had a new audio system with eight channels and three video projectors, prompting her to upgrade the project. "My work is immersive, and [Harvest Work's set-up] has really great conditions for a piece like this," she said.
SKIN implements a commercial interface called GSR 2 that's usually used as a biofeedback interface that helps anxious people learn to calm down. The interface measures the skin's moisture and the data is turned into frequencies and colors using MAX software. Low frequencies and blue color represent a relaxed state, while orange images and higher frequencies indicate a higher degree of stress. In certain respects, the project works like a high-tech mood ring.
"In the installation, people experience mostly red colors and high frequencies because the space is publicly reflecting their inner states," explained Robles. "When they see the first blue line, and as the blue line gets bigger, people realize they are calming down." The artist added that people are very anxious and impatient when wearing the GSR—"They want to get calm in just a few minutes!" But the installation is not meant to calm people down, it is simply a method for visually and sonically articulating their inner states. "If they take time to get calm, they experience a calm [atmosphere]… but it takes time."
Though it sounds nerve-wracking to have your internal, private feelings projected to a group of strangers in an art gallery, Robles work is fascinating in that one person's emotional barometer can change the mood and environment of a big space—a chance to become Zeus, of sorts, in Chelsea. And in case you were wondering: sweatier people don't yield stronger reactions from the system. But for the neurotic, this is an opportunity to have your friends see and hear how you feel on the inside.
See some photos of the exhibition below, and visit Harvest Work's website for more information.

Nedroid's Super Mario Brothers Have a Lot Of Problems
I think it's fair to say that when I was growing up in the '80s and '90s, Nintendo's Mario was one of the major heroes of my childhood, right up there with Batman, Randy Savage and Michaelangelo the Ninja Turtle. I spent countless hours guiding that guy from castle to castle in search of kidnapped royalty, and along the way, I became very familiar with a world where the traditional ideas of logic just flat out did not apply. I mean, it's weird enough for a kingdom to have a standing policy of leaving a plumber in charge of monarch safety, but touching a leaf that turns you into a raccoon? That's enough to leave anyone weirded out.
And that seems to be the premise that the incredibly Anthony Clark — creator of the great Nedroid Picture Diary webcomic — seems to be working with in his recent sketches of Mario, whose inexplicable behavior has become a source of concern for both his friends and enemies. Check out the entire sequence after the jump!First up was a common scene from the games, which, for those of you whose childhoods involved pointless things like "going outside" or "reading books," involved a flower that gave you the ability to shoot fire out of your hands, which you could then use to roast your enemies alive. And now that I think about it, that sounds terrifying.
In Super Mario Bros. 3, there were, as mentioned, leaves that turned you into a raccoon, or at least gave you the lazy cosplay of ears and a tail. Not only did this give you the ability to fly — because of course it did — but Mario could use his tail as a weapon by pirouetting to swing it at his enemies. It seems Bowser, Mario's arch-enemy, is as confused by this as I am.
This is Yoshi. He is a dinosaur with boots on. Nothing can change the fact that that is adorable.
And finally, Clark creates a scene where Mario's friends confront him about his tendency to wear a frog suit and hop around:
The best part? Princess Peach's sorrowful concern contrasted with Toad's complete lack of concern. That dude could not care less about Mario. C'mon, Toad! The guy rescued you from seven castles! Show some respect!
To see these sketches and more, check out Clark's Tumblr, where he posts sketches that are frequently my favorite things on the Internet.

Dr. George Crozier of the dauphin Island Sea Lab discusses the environmental impact the oil spill will have on the Gulf Coast.
War still raged between the dauphin and the King of Navarre.
Rumor says that on one occasion he had the audacity to strike the dauphin.
The dauphin Louis had not enjoyed the pampered, petted life of his Burgundian cousin.
The newly-married dauphin treacherously breaks with his wife's party.
She called him gentle dauphin, and by that term she implied nobility and royal magnificence.
The object was to unite the army in dauphin with that on the lower Po.
Two others were made and sent to the dauphin of France, where Huyghens had obtained a patent for spiral-spring watches.
Their last card was a regency, to be directed by them in the name of the dauphin.
In 1449, he had married Eleanor of Scotland, and became brother-in-law of Louis during the term of the dauphin's first marriage.
"eldest son of the king of France" (title in use from 1349-1830), early 15c., from Middle French dauphin, literally "dolphin" (see dolphin).
Originally the title attached to "the Dauphin of Viennois," whose province (in the French Alps north of Provence) came to be known as Dauphiné. Three dolphins were on the coat of arms of the lords of Viennois, first worn by Guido IV (d.1142). It is said originally to have been a personal name among the lords of Viennois. Humbert III, the last lord of Dauphiné, ceded the province to Philip of Valois in 1349, on condition that the title be perpetuated by the eldest son of the king of France. The French fem. form is dauphine.
