In my house Desmond Tutu can do little wrong. He's up there with Nelson Mandela. (The latter complimented Tutu recently as "the voice of the voiceless"). Tutu restores our fight in decency and what's right when on countless accusations he calls South Africa's ruling class into line (like he did its previous white rulers), sticks up for gays and lesbians, celebrates when we need to, and takes on intransigent regimes or the American behemoth. We'll also cut Tutu slack for the empty justice of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (that's some expensive slack, I know) and the stale jokes he tells on the US lecture circuit or, in this case, for fraternizing with Richard Branson, who's a better publicist than he is a businessman. But this clip above of the Archbishop swimming–from Sundance Channel's "Iconoclasts" series where two famous people hang around and chat–is worth it for seeing Tutu in his swimming trunks and Branson helping Tutu with his slippers.

NEW YORK (Sep. 13)
Fifteen years of unpublicized work by a committee of 100 New Yorkers was culminated yesterday in the cornerstone laying for a six-story Brotherhood House which will provide free facilities for 100 voluntary interfaith and social agencies in New York City.
Most of the $3,000,000 to build the new structure was contributed by members of the committee, who intend to also cover the annual operating budget of Brotherhood House. Stated for completion in 1963, it will have a library, meditation and music rooms, a 400-seat auditorium, seminar and conference rooms, and offices.
Governor Rockefeller and Mayer Wagner took part in the ceremony, and hailed the purposes of the building and its sponsors. The committee, named Brotherhood-In-Action, is composed of prominent New Yorkers with Charles H. Tuttle as president. The officers include James A. Farley, John MacCrate, Theodore Newhouse, Lawrence A. Wien, Albert A. List and Samuel Hausman.

Oakshire X Tenth Anniversary V - Cuvee Blend
17 September 2016
Here's one of the actual 10th anniversary beers coming from Oakshire Brewing. This is the Cuvee Blend and it is a blend of Farmhouse Golden with wine grapes, Brett Table Saison and Biere de Garde. This beer hits 5.5%-AbV and 20 IBU and this is the 750ml bottle.

The indices continue to hold up well as we await the onslaught of major earnings reports tonight. There is a bit of a divergence developing, as I'm seeing a fair amount of profit-taking in select small-caps while financials and old tech exhibit relative strength.
I suspect there are some bears itching to be more aggressive with shorts, but they are holding off until the earnings news hits tonight. With a market that is technically extended and with expectations fairly high, the likelihood of selling increases.
I've been a heavy net seller today, and I took a number of stocks off my screen. It has been a good run and with things starting to tire, I'm happy to retreat into more cash and wait for things to develop
One buy I made this afternoon is Human Genome Sciences (HGSI), which received a recommendation and a $14 price target this morning from Maxim Group. I like how it is turning up off recent lows and will start accumulating a little.

In the wake of Hurricane Sandy, Mitt Romney and Barack Obama may be straining to make it look as if they're above politics, but some in the press are busy trying to score points for their own view of government or the candidate who best reflects it.
On Monday night, even as entire New York City neighbourhoods were underwater, the Times weighed in with an editorial, posted online, taking Romney to task for his pledge to eliminate part of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. "Does Mr. Romney really believe that financially strapped states would do a better job than a properly functioning federal agency?" the paper asked.
President Obama played his part, staying off the campaign trail and hunkering down in the White House, monitoring disaster response and looking presidential.
But when Mr. Romney quickly re-purposed a "Victory" rally in Ohio on Tuesday into a "storm relief effort," that brought together about 2,000 supporters to collect foodstuffs and other goods for those in need, the New Republic argued his response still fell woefully short of what was required after a disaster like Sandy:
"As Romney himself conceded at Tuesday's 'storm relief event,' charity can't solve everything. And yet the degree of confidence he expressed in volunteerism was somewhat striking." The magazine then quoted Romney saying at the event: "There are lot of people who [are] still going to be looking for goods even if we gathered these things. But one of the things I've learned in life is you make the difference you can. You can't always solve the problems yourself, but you can make the difference in the life of one or two people."
Meanwhile, Mr. Obama's view of the role of government received a huge boost from an unlikely source when New Jersey's governor Chris Christie, a Republican who gave the keynote address at the GOP's convention in August, told the Today Show that the President's support for New Jersey was "outstanding."
On Twitter, Mr. Christie added: "I want to thank the president personally for all his assistance as (we) recover from the storm." And as he invited Mr. Obama to tour his devastated state, he lashed out at critics who wondered if he was subtly trying to derail Romney to clear his own path to a 2016 run for the White House. "I don't give a damn about Election Day after what has happened here," he tweeted. Using a phrase associated with the Obama campaign, he added that the president, "is instructing Gov't to lean forward to help."
That was too much for some Romney supporters. Matt K. Lewis at The Daily Caller asked rhetorically: "The question is whether – with just days left before Election Day – Christie should have gone out of his way to lavish praise on Obama, and to provide him with a terrific photo-op for which to look presidential."
"Is Christie really saying that the plight of his state today outweighs the seriousness of electing a President of the United States of America for four years?"
Yes, he is.Report Typo/Error

Papa said knock you out!
Boxing champ Mike Tyson is going to be a father for the eighth time: Tyson and his wife Lakiha Spicer Tyson are expecting a baby boy, due in late January.
"They are very happy and everyone is doing great," Tyson's rep tells UsMagazine.com. The couple wed last summer, and already have a daughter, Milan, 21 months.
Tyson, 44, has five other children from previous relationships. Tragically, in May 2009, his 4-year-old daughter Exodus choked to death after her neck was accidentally caught in the cord of an exercise machine.

Alleged front panel of the iPhone 5 leaks again, 30% larger screen with in-cell touch layer to be used
0. phoneArena posted on 04 Jul 2012, 08:00
It integrates the touch sensors directly into the LCD package, thinning it in the process, and allowing for a slimmer device. Given that those sources confirm once again what we've heard numerous times - that the iPhone 5 screen will be with 30% larger area than the 3.5-incher we have now, a thinner display part would still allow for a very compact device...

Android is obviously leading the way right now.. I just do hope that more HD games exclusive on App store right now like (NBA 2K12, Fight night, Street fighter Volt, Infinite blade, etc.) will come to Google Play..

I go to android articles and there are maybe 2-10 comments and most of the comments are positive. I go to Apple articles and sometimes there are over 60 comments but they are all negative and bashing Apple. I get it, Apple's release of iOS 6 is pretty upsetting because of the lack of new features. But, here's the pattern Apple usually runs in. One year they focus on software (iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4s) and the next they focus on hardware (iPhone 3G, iPhone 4, and possibly iPhone 5). Yes it is frustrating for an Apple user like me that Apple doesn't release totally new software and hardware at the same time. Apple is going to keep doing this pattern as long as they keep having the good sales from year to year. A 4 inch screen is defiantly a must have if Apple wants to compete with Android.
28. Immolate (Posts: 310; Member since: 17 Jun 2011)
Understand your frustration beillax, but it isn't Apple users that draw our ire. It's the company you support and their cut-throat litigiousness and blatantly anti-competitive practices that guarantee that every article about an Apple product will receive harsh criticism and mockery. Sow the wind and reap the whirlwind.
31. remtothemax (Posts: 260; Member since: 02 May 2012)
see, i just don't think that this is the place for that though
do you really think apple gives a damn if an orgy of disgruntled android fans bash them on a random gadget site?
this is just a consumer level site for discussing what is coming out
legitimate criticisms of apple products are on topic
and article about apples latest ridiculous lawsuits would be a good place to criticize the company
but people basically trolling things like "omg, it has a 4" screen? i bet it will have like a half core processor and 3gb of space and mindless apple fans will eat this mess up. Apple is awful. gs3 gs3 gs3 gs3!!!!!" that have no basis in fact or that are compltely random really throw off the atmosphere of the website
without affecting apple at all
apple isn't reaping the whilrwind
everyone else, ifan, fandroid, ...windows phone fan, symbian person, does

Apple doesnt want to COMPETE with Android. They already BAN the GALAXY NEXUS. They might as well BAN every phone in the industry.
48. remtothemax (Posts: 260; Member since: 02 May 2012)
and maybe they will
go start a consumer advocacy group
talking in all caps here solves nothing
11. frydaexiii (Posts: 1475; Member since: 01 Dec 2011)
If Apple really wanted to attact customers, they should change the physical home button to a capacitive one. I've seen almost all my iPhone using friends use the accessibility button as a home button because the physical one is either broken or is unresponsive.
And I hope it gets sued the moment it's announced. By iFans logic, Apple stole LTE, NFC and big screens from the Galaxy S3. And I'm fairly sure that Apple will steal Sony and Samsung's Smart tag/ tectiles technology use of NFC too.
81. amish1512 (Posts: 28; Member since: 07 Jun 2012)
LTE its network its not a phone or OS that apple steal it and NFC system blackberry already had it so what do u think they steal it , and big screen every other phone coming out with the big screen to compete in the market that doesnt mean they steal it. iphone is the first phone with big 3.5 " screen then after samsung made its first galaxy phone that was really looks like an iphone if u notice it. who started to make multi touch screen phone "samsung"? NO! that was apple !!!

That's what all of you sound like. If you don't like iOS and Apple, don't read articles and post immature and pointless comments. I was under the impression the comments were for constructive discussion, not mindless bashing. I don't go on a car website and just bash on all the Ford articles because I dislike their products/the company. I just ignore it.
25. frydaexiii (Posts: 1475; Member since: 01 Dec 2011)
It is, which is why I left a constructive criticism before I went all fanboy lol
27. Immolate (Posts: 310; Member since: 17 Jun 2011)
I wonder if they still have time to copy the advances in Google Now before releasing the iPhone 5. Considering how much Apple pins their hopes and dreams on Siri, it would be ironic to release an upgraded version that is slower, less accurate and has an inferior voice presentation than an existing Android product.
Anyone using the "beta" defense will be sent to the corner with a pointy hat.
29. Evil_SaNz (Posts: 259; Member since: 20 Oct 2011)
Buy the iphone 5 if you wanna fund their lawyers, incentivaze proprietary software and destroy the competition (future preview: iphone 10 @5000 bucks, mandatory Apple sticker on every car)
30. good2great (Posts: 1042; Member since: 22 Feb 2012)
i think phonearena should block the ability to comment on apple articles only.
every random piece of news thats released on here about apple gets the same redundant comments...
32. xtian1103 (Posts: 363; Member since: 11 Feb 2012)
as an apple user, i'm pretty much excited about the upgrade on screen size. i know you android fans have big screens since ages ago but the change in specs (screen size, 4g, nfc etc.) are unique among all generations of iphone. i repeat, among all iphone models only. i'm a person who wants a simple and easy to use phone, who jailbreaks and restore it whenever i like it, and has no problem about apple's ecosystem, an iphone is perfect for me. sure i tried android(xperia ray), meego(nokia n9), and soon windows phone if i still have enough money, but still it's an iphone for my everyday use!
52. ryq24 (Posts: 773; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
apple is facing its biggest challenge now as more people realize that there are a lot of cheaper and more feature pack phones out there. if iphone 5 comes with 4" screen it will not be enough to stem the tide of samsung and htc and perhaps sony from further cutting its hold on the smartphone market.

This design shows that Apple's days are over.
Its better not to launch any another iPhone please I have got sick seeing that gay looking phone and OS again and again huh

I always thought that my unintencionally trolling was the cause of all the haters and dumb comments... just got here and nop.. it is not me... it is getting pretty bad here. so bad that dont even feel like having the same conversation over and over with the fandroids. keep commenting. not even going to say troling as PA doesnt allow trolls?..
75. Basharhd99 (Posts: 95; Member since: 05 Jul 2012)
Nice, but I don't think that the iphone five will be better than the galaxy S
79. TechDork (Posts: 313; Member since: 10 May 2010)
So, what's changing again? Oh, the OS? That's very....innovative. Wait, their making the screen bigger too?!! Oh, taller...still gonna have a cramped keyboard eh? That's cool. *goes back to typing on my GSIII* this keyboard is so comfortable..
82. amish1512 (Posts: 28; Member since: 07 Jun 2012)
stealing technology from blackberry keyboard lol u guys deserve that chip korean company with plastic make phone and with a big screen that sucks phone battery thats why they offer spare battery on website on bestbuy.ca just look at it. lol and if u know the latest news about gs3 explode, better dont keep it in ur pant pockets otherwise it will blow something that u really dont wanna loose it.

BUENOS AIRES (Sep. 10)
Argentine President General Alejandro Agustin Lanusse sent Dr. Sion Cohen Imach. president of the DAIA, the following New Year's message: "On the eve of the Jewish New Year and Day of Atonement it is a pleasure for me to convey a cordial greeting to the noble Jewish community of Argentina. The government is fully aware of the significance of this community's contribution to the material and spiritual progress of the nation."
Lanusse stated that "the acknowledgement of this important role induce me to express my conviction that this sector of our people will intensify–if this were possible–its efforts for the well-being of the fatherland and of all its sons particularly in these moments in which this country is on its path stepping firmly to the full force of its democratic institutions."
The Jewish Telegraphic Agency staff and management wishes its subscribers a happy new year.

This place is absolutely superb!! We couldn't have been more comfortable there. The view is breathtaking. We all enjoyed sitting out on the porch, watching the boats come in and the seagulls fly around. To have a view of this magnitude is rare, and we soaked up every minute of it. This particular unit has an extra nook and my daughter was able to sleep very comfortable in it. Very convenient for a third party to use. I cook a fair amount and was able to use the kitchen with ease for both breakfast and dinner. The gym and pool were wonderful. Pool was not lap sized but you could still use it for a workout if you wanted. Gym is small but has 2 treadmills, 1 elliptical, 1 recumbent bike and 1 regular bike plus free weights, yoga ball and 2 separate weight stations. I used everything in the gym for 2 complete workouts during our 3 night stay. Avalon is a quick 10 minute drive via golf cart. We visited often, enjoying the shops and the wonderful ice cream at Olaf's. It was great to be able to experience the town and then sneak away for some down time in the condo. Jenessa & Helmut were easily accessible if we had questions, but they did a great job laying it all out so we didn't have much to ask. Highly recommend this place - it was wonderful!Annabelle2015-08-11T00:00:00Z

Aimee and Jeremy were excellent hosts. I came 2 hours early, due to the fact the freeway traffic was light and that I was able to board the 12:00 o'clock ferry rather than 2:00 on the Catalina Express. Refrigerated bottles of water were available along with Keurig coffee K-Cups in the room. Everything in this cozy cottage retreat was up-to-date. Jeremy offered to pick me up some liquid refreshments ;-) at the supermarket was over the top. I felt very secured (gated) leaving the widows open for a cool breeze to flow through in the evening. I had an awesome weekend and will return sometime again this summer. I came to support my brother's daughter wedding which was held 300 feet down the street at the M Restaurant. BlessingsSteve2017-05-21T00:00:00Z
Aimee's Island Cottage is in the best location of Avalon . You'll fall in love , Catalina is a home away from home and the cottage gives you a great introduction of how life is on the island . We had a great time at Aimee's, next time staying longer!Veltoro2017-05-08T00:00:00Z
This apartment was so cute and well decorated. We loved it. The hosts were welcoming and had a lot of knowledge about the island. Would definitely recommend!Sierra2017-05-22T00:00:00Z
My first time at Catalina was made much more enjoyable thanks to Aimee's humble cottage! The place is very comfortable to relax in, and yet, it is walking distance to the main shops and restaurants. Very clean, and a perfect place to stay for 2 people! Would recommend.Ismael2017-05-20T00:00:00Z
Aimee's house was great! Close to everything! 4 of us stayed and although it was small we all slept comfortably. The small touches added by Aimee made it a great place to stay. Would definitely recommend and would definitely come back.Liz2017-05-14T00:00:00Z

Wow! What a lovely little place. I love how quiet it is. I cannot remember the last time i stayed somewhere so silent! I slept better than i have in months. The room is about 5-10 minutes from the downtown area and the beach, which is really convenient. But it is far enough away from the city to allow for the peace and silence. The room was clean and has everything i needed for my stay. Fran was very helpful and was always available for additional assistance. They run a non profit organization doing youth camps on the island, I always like to support these kinds of people rather than some hotel! I really needed that escape from the crazy world! Thanks so much, i will be back soon!Trevor2017-05-26T00:00:00Z
False advertising, there is no wifi, or pool/hot tub access, was not given a key to the room upon arrival because I was told, "Oh, you won't need it, this is a safe neighborhood". While I don't doubt the intent of the host(s), I also don't want my things stolen. Seriously unprofessional host, would never recommend this listing in its current conditions.Dylan2017-05-14T00:00:00Z
My girlfriend and I stayed at Fran and Annie's place for a weekend trip getaway at Catalina. It was exactly what we were looking for as a young couple trying to enjoy time in a resort island where most things are pretty expensive. Their place doesn't have all the bells and whistles, but it was cozy, quiet, maintained, and perfect for our trip! All the airbnb's I saw when booking was around twice the price. Annie helped us check in and she is very hospitable and would reach out to ask if we needed anything. Their place was a bit tough to find but Annie drove out to meet us and pick us up which was very nice of her. I would recommend travelers who were trying to save some money and prefer a simple stay to check out this place! I would stay again :)Rocco2017-05-20T00:00:00Z

This was a wonderful place to stay for my sister's bachelorette party. We had 8 guests and stayed in the Mermaid and Captain's room. Wonderfully appointed, little extras in the fridge were much appreciated (it was great to have a coffee maker, full size fridge, toaster, and other amenities), and very clean and updated while preserving the charm of the house. Excellent location and we walked everywhere. Very kind of Jeannie to pick us up from the ferry and drop our bags off as well. Perfect place to stay to enjoy a relaxing stay in Catalina!Toti2016-08-29T00:00:00Z
La base perfetta in Catalina! L'appartamento è molto dolce e minuziosamente messi insieme. Era perfettamente pulito e molto ben situato - su una strada tranquilla, ma a pochi passi dalla spiaggia, negozi, ecc Jeanie è un eccezionale buon padrone di casa - lei ha fatto il suo modo di accogliere noi e rendere il nostro soggiorno week-end in Catalina perfetto. Tutto il necessario è stato fornito. Ci ha anche cotto Madeleines. Si tratta di un piccolo appartamento, meglio per una coppia. Eravamo quattro adulti e siamo stati molto confortevole, ma se si desidera che la vostra privacy si dovrebbe probabilmente prendere entrambi gli appartamenti di Jeanie.Cecilia2015-08-09T00:00:00Z
I happened to mention that my visit to Catalina was a birthday celebration. Upon arriving to our PERFECT accommodations, I was surprised by a delicious birthday cake and a bottle of wine from our host. Jeanie is a wonderfully thought hostess with warm, loving energy. She made us feel like family. This is the only place I'll ever stay from now on when we visit Avalon.Dartenea2016-09-06T00:00:00Z
Jeanie made us feel so welcome! I'd written that we were coming to Catalina to celebrate a couple of birthdays and she left us a chocolate cake and balloons!! The place is adorable and sunny and its on a quaint little street right in the heart of Avalon. The kitchen was super well appointed and being coffee drinkers we really appreciated the coffee in the fridge and being able to make a pot first thing. The bathroom clean and spacious and the bed was really comfortable. The whole place was just right for my husband and me as well as two friends. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat!Vicky2015-07-12T00:00:00Z
Jeanie's place was amazing! She did so many little things like stock the fridge and give us a little tour of the island and she picked us up from the docks. Absolutely amazing stay!!!William2016-10-14T00:00:00Z
Couldn't be happier with our stay for our 45 th wedding anniversaryterry2017-05-10T00:00:00Z
Our room in the triplex was beautiful and luxurious. The view and the wine were amazing.Will2016-06-16T00:00:00Z
Absolutely Awesome. My wife and I stayed here for three days and we couldn't have asked for a better place. Jeanie was awesome with allowing us to check in early the day of arrival. She picked us up from the docks and took us to he cozy place. When we got there we set our bags down and noticed that the room was stocked with snacks and breakfast items. The bathroom was stocked with tons of clean fresh towels soaps lotions and other amenities. The living room has a tv that is connected to the wifi that is included. Overall we had an amazing time. The one this that I would suggest is that if you plan on cooking bring a pan and your own hot plates as the is no cookware. I would recommend this place to any one looking for an amazing addition to your catalina trip.Keyven2017-04-12T00:00:00Z

The Hamilton Cove complex is beautiful and the amenities are really nice extras if you have time to take advantage of them. We played tennis several times.

I can't say enough about this place and Lamont...our host!!! It was gorgeous from the interior design (catalina inspired) to how immaculate it was! The view is ridiculous!! It looks like Santorini. And of course Lamont, our host was very responsive and gracious. It had more than we expected. Can't wait to rent this unit again! oxCassandra2017-03-26T00:00:00Z

This was my first experience with Airbnb and Tom was very patient with me. The view from the condo is amazing. Having the use of a golf cart makes the stay even better. It might say somewhere, but I don't see it. There are 83 steps to get to the condo. One of our people is having both knees replaced this fall and it was very hard for her to manage all the stairs. They were no problem for the rest of us. I'm not sure we would have picked this condo had we known about the stairs. The pool and the gym are great. The condo had everything we needed. We were able to check in early and check out late which was so nice. I really appreciated that Tom and his crew were so accommodating. Loved our stay in Catalina.Ellen2016-07-14T00:00:00Z

My wife and I were in LA for a conference and we decided to extend our stay to celebrate her birthday and enjoy three days of R&R. We decided Catalina Island was way overdue. Carrie manages the bookings for the owner of the villa; she is great to work with. The villa is lovely - just as it is pictured. A golf cart is the major mode of transportation on the island and the cart was included in the rental of the villa. We had a great time and look forward to returning.Lloyd2017-05-11T00:00:00Z
Hamilton Cove is a lovely area about a mile from the main part of Avalon. It is quiet, beautiful, and the views are truly mind-blowing! Carrie was a wonderful host, communicated clearly, and offered everything we needed for a perfect vacation. I would stay there again in a heartbeat! Perfect!Erin2017-04-30T00:00:00Z
We highly recommend Carrie's Villa at Hamilton Cove. We selected this Villa based on Carrie's positive reviews, as we have learned the hard way that pictures can be deceiving. In this case, the pictures did not do justice to the AMAZING ocean views from Carrie's beautiful Villa. We were stunned as we walked from room to room and could see panoramic ocean views from EVERY single window. We were also impressed with the size and functionality of the Villa. The Villa is comfortable, inviting, and family friendly not stuffy or overly fancy. The kitchen is open and in the center of the Villa so you can participate in whatever is happening in the living room, dining room, and on the veranda as you are cooking or making drinks. The kitchen is well stocked and had nice stainless steel appliances. We read there was laundry but assumed it was in a common area. We were pleasantly surprised to find Carrie's full size washer and dryer in the unit. This was extremely helpful as our twins enjoyed the pool and jacuzzi and we could throw their wet towels in the dryer to be ready for their next pool trip. The beds were perfect and you can see the ocean while relaxing in bed. It was hard to tell from the pictures but the entire veranda is Carries and she has four separate seating areas outside of each living space. My husband & I enjoyed the relaxing table and chairs outside the master suite while our twins next door had their own seating area outside their secondary bedroom. The third and largest area is outside the living/dining area. We pushed the two tables together outside the living room and had breakfast as a family every morning overlooking the ocean. We ate most of our meals on the veranda and used the huge indoor family dining table mostly for games at night. We loved that you can be as active or relaxed as you desire. We checked out golf putters at the guard station and played on their 18-hole putting green. It is a beautiful real grass putting green. We also checked out a basketball and played on the oceanfront court. My husband worked out every morning in the health center which also had panoramic ocean views. He saw dolphins playing during one of his exercise sessions which was great incentive to keep his eyes fixed on the ocean for the next four days. The boys loved going up and down the stairs and I enjoyed driving the golf cart and parking close to our adventures. This was our first trip to Hamilton Cove and I was afraid four days might be too long, it was not. We had to tear ourselves away, there was so much to do we plan to stay longer next time. We fell in love with Carrie's Villa and will absolutely be staying here again.Nedra2017-04-08T00:00:00Z
Carrie's condo is fantastic. We've stayed at Hamilton Cove before and Carrie's unit is great because it is only a few steps from the street and all of the rooms have great views (not all units have these features). Like most units at there, the decor is a little dated, but overall it is really comfortable and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to visit Catalina.Steve2017-04-01T00:00:00Z
The view was amazingChelsea2017-03-27T00:00:00Z
Getting to your vacation is just as much as part of the experience of being at your vacation. Let me just start off with the fact that Carrie is VERY responsive and accommodating. Our family was suppose to get in Christmas Eve but the high winds and nine foot waves caused all ferries to Catalina that day to be cancelled, we were in a panic! We were able to quickly get in touch with Carrie over the phone and she was very understanding of our situation and within minutes we were able shift our reservation back by one day. It couldn't have been smoother. The next day when we got to Catalina and got to Carrie's place, my family was flipping switches everywhere and found the lights and TVs in the room not working. I again was able to contact Carrie very quick via text and get all my additional questions sorted out. She was even about to send out maintenance to address the power but we eventually figured out reseting the circuit breakers and everything worked! Just with my interaction with Carrie alone I would recommend her place! Now, Carrie's actual place. The place is very spacious and clean. The pictures are accurate. The view is amazing both day and night. You can clearly see Long Beach in distant at night and the view of the other buildings in Hamilton Cove from the balcony is gorgeous. A picture just doesn't quite capture it. I wish I could have spent more time sitting and enjoying the view. Yes, Carrie's place is a (fun) short eight minute golf cart drive into town, but if you're looking to relax, this is the place to be. Grab something from the local market cause there is a nice kitchen for you to cook pretty much anything. The restaurants are a little on the expensive side so it's nice to interweave dining out and cooking in. A couple comments that may or may not matter. The beds are great, but they are a little high off the ground. My elderly parents had more of a challenge getting in and out of bed. The shower floor is lined with tiles that can be a little slippery so again my elderly parents had to be more cautious. If you don't have any elderly individuals to consider, then these comments are a moot point. Otherwise, my family loved Carrie's place, the location, view, etc ... I would highly recommend you consider this place over anything in town!Albert2016-12-28T00:00:00Z
Great view and great location just few minutes outside of town.Chris2016-11-26T00:00:00Z
The view from the condo-length balcony is GORGEOUS. The amenities are great: golf cart to get around the island, in-unit washer, and dryer, two (2) full bathrooms. The beds are comfortable, too. As of our November stay, the second bedroom had two (2) beds--fyi for couples traveling together. We would return for another relaxing visit.Adrienne2015-11-01T00:00:00Z

The apartment was beyond of our expectations. It was clean and cozy, the view is gorgeous. It's the case when a real place is better than on pictures. I highly recommend to all travelers to consider Andre's and Leslie's apartment for your stay on the island.Mikhail2017-05-07T00:00:00Z
我们有一个完美的假期在卡特琳娜!我一般不发布评价 - 但我不得不为安德烈和张国荣这样做。正如许多人都提到,安德烈是了不起的事情!右键从我送出出租请求的时候,安德烈回答我的所有问题及时。我们在卡塔利娜庆祝我妻子的生日。安德烈晚餐吃了一些很好的建议,也帮我找到,将烘烤生日蛋糕的地方!不幸的是,由于在洛杉矶糟糕的交通我错过了最后一班渡轮到卡特琳娜。安德烈跃升,帮我找到了一夜的宾馆。 当我们检查了,一个水果的篮子,坚果和奶酪等着我们呢!这房子是在伟大的条件,有海洋的一个很好的观点 从阳台。 强烈推荐。Faisal2016-11-27T00:00:00Z
My family of four had a marvelous time. The Condo actually had a balcony that you could not see in the pictures which was a wonderful surprise. The views were breathtaking and the walk to town although a gradual hill was very easy.Dennis Kristin2016-10-09T00:00:00Z

We really had a great stay at Kim's condo, the place was very home like, we felt like we're at the comfort of our own home while having vacation. Her place does have most of the things that you need for your daily outdoor activities like bikes, beach chairs, beach towels, golfcart, thou we haven't really use them because of our limited stay, but it's a good thing to have in case. Kim was very accomodating and flexible with some of our request. The other good thing in her place was the (URL HIDDEN) was a million dollar view as they say.Malcolm2016-11-25T00:00:00Z

We really enjoyed our stay at Kim's place. The weather was dark, gray and rainy for our 3-day stay, but we didn't let that stop the two grandparents, two parents and two baby girls from having a good time. The 2-year old loved riding in the golf cart to explore the island with grandma and gramps, and having the two bedrooms and full kitchen made it so much easier to manage the naps and varied menus required to feed the little ones. When we had a question about the wifi, Kim was very quick to respond. Great host!Christine2017-01-05T00:00:00Z

My husband and I stayed at Hugh's condo to celebrate our 1 yr anniversary this April and fully enjoyed our stay. Hugh was an exceptionally gracious host. Checkin/checkout was flexible and he arranged for us to get picked up at the ferry upon our 9PM arrival. The condo is in Hamilton Cove which is definitely quieter given it is outside of downtown but it's just a quick 5 minute golf cart ride. We didn't want to leave and can't wait to come back!Megan2017-04-16T00:00:00Z

Came on a girls weekend getaway and this place was worth every cent. Gorgeous view, very comfortable space for the 3 of us. Access to the golf cart was the biggest perk and super handy. It's short walk down downstairs to the rocky beach and the swimming pool/fitness center was right below. Dishwasher in the kitchen, wifi, plenty of towels for us already. Hugh is a great host and made this stay very easy and comfortable. Highly recommended and I'd be happy to come back.Diane2017-05-21T00:00:00Z

I can not even begin to say how wonderful our stay was. The Condo was more than expected...pictures didn't do it justice.

Jay's place was fantastic and perfect for my husband and I. The 1 bed room end unit was clean, updated, roomy, and had everything we needed for our stay there. There is a full size day bed downstairs in the living room as well. The location is fantastic- a less than 5 min walk into town and. 30 sec golf cart ride. The town home will be perfect for a couple with one or two small children or three adults. It is a quiet family complex so I would avoid booking this place if you want a party atmosphere. We took advantage of the golf cart and my recommendation would be to do the same. It's expensive to rent the golf cart on the island and it's a great way to get around. Jay was great in communicating and had no issuers getting questions answered before during or after the stay! She provided us with detailed information so there was no issues at all. Highly recommend jays place and we will be back!Rani2016-12-30T00:00:00Z

This is a great place to stay on the island. Very upgraded throughout and would make a very nice stay for two couples.

You will not be disappointed here.Michael2016-11-27T00:00:00Z

Really loved our stay at Jan's place in Catalina. The place was beautiful and well decorated and right in the middle of town. Everything was in walking distance and Jan made us feel at home. She was very responsive to all our request and was an excellent host. We will for sure be staying here again on our next trip to Catalina.Jim 2016-10-10T00:00:00Z
一月是一个了不起的主机!她安排了一个提前入住这帮助我们出极大,也安排了一个人回家去镇上和恢复我的钥匙,并让他们到直升机场,使他们能够做出下一个飞越大陆我已经忘了他们之后而被卡在长滩。现在,如果这不是一个了不起的主持人,我不知道是什么。 这个地方很干净,舒适,明亮。这也是很短的步行到所有伟大的商店和餐饮。它不可能制定了我们更好。哦,床是超级舒服!Montgomery2016-11-13T00:00:00Z
Jan was an incredible host. She was an excellent communicator, super responsive and personable. Jan was very quick to respond even during the holidays. Jan made you feel welcomed even before your arrived because of how thoughtful, thorough, and helpful communication. When you arrived at the property, Jan had a welcome basket of fruits, snacks, and beverages along with a welcome note. The property was spotless and incredible. The views from the balconies in both rooms had view of the shoreline. The property had all of the amenities of an upscale hotel except with all of the personal touches of a home away from home. From the moment you walked into the front you, you felt a rush of excitement and relief that you were able to get such a deal! It was the perfect place to rest after a day of exploring the island, and the perfect place to wake up feeling energized to face the day. The property was centrally located within minutes from downtown with quaint boutiques, restaurants, the museum, activities, tours, and the museum. It was a stone's throw away from the dock and the casino. We had a first-class experience from A to Z. Our only regrets were that we could not stay longer and that we did not have the pleasure of meeting Jan in person. We plan to return to the island. We could not imagine returning to the island without staying at Jan's place. The quality of Jan's property and her customer service were as much of the ingredients in our overall amazing experience as was the beauty of the island. Thank you, Jan!Aubrey2017-01-02T00:00:00Z
We booked Jan's property for our parents 50th wedding anniversary. The unit is fairly new and very well kept. The view of the bay and ocean as well as the town of Avalon from the house is amazing. She has some excellent pictures on the website but they don't really do this place justice because it is simply beautiful and classy. We also got to meet Jan in person by accident really which was a pleasant surprise. This is a very well managed property only a couple of blocks from the beach and worth every cent. Also the communication is top notch as Jan will answer any questions or concerns within minutes by email, text or phone. As you can tell we loved this property and are completely satisfied with our experience here and would recommend anyone to stay here. Thanks Jan!William Skip2016-06-06T00:00:00Z

Authorities on Tuesday identified Lester T. Sigler of Fallbrook as the victim of a fatal crash that occurred on a rural North County road Monday.
The 92-year-old man was riding in a pickup, with his wife driving eastbound on De Luz Road, in the De Luz neighborhood northwest of Fallbrook, shortly before noon.
The Medical Examiner's Office said the wife swerved to avoid an oncoming vehicle near Harris Spur Trail, and lost control of the truck. The pickup went off the road and overturned down a slope.
Sigler, who was not wearing a seat belt, was partly ejected from the truck and died at the scene. His wife, who was in a seat belt, suffered moderate injures. She was taken to a hospital.

"Farhan worked really hard to look at least 10 years less than his actual age to look like Milkha in the 1960s," said a source. "Farhan would now have to knock off another 10 years from his real age to look like the 17-year-old Milkha, the army-boy in the 1950s."
Farhan, who spent a lot of time researching the army for his war film Lakshya, would undertake at least a fortnight of on-the-spot training in an army cantonment to get the hang of that particular phase of Milkha's career.

There is a Monster at the End of this book by Grover
Been listening to an eclectic mix of music lately. genres include: Garage, Punk, Post-Punk, New Wave, Alt Rock, Alt Country, Honky Tonk, Bluegrass, Celtic, World, etc. I could talk about music for hours!!!
As per movies my favorites are
Miller's Crossing, Michael Collins, The Mission, In America, The Proposition, The Good The Bad & The Ugly, Role Models, Slap Shot and Slap Shot 2, Fever Pitch (Arsenal Version), In Bruges, Hot Fuzz, Grosse Point Blank, L.A. Confidential, Clerks 2, Mumford, The Baxter and Any Jim Sheridan, Neil Jordan, or Wim Wenders movie.I
I am a foodie... Lately I can't get enough of Kerry Gold cheese with savory ritz crackers, finding the best calamari in the area, any place that does a decent rack of lamb, and of course my love for chicken tikka survives.
Sounds odd I know but I remember hearing that on an old episode of SNL from the 80's and it stuck with me.

TRIBUTES have been pouring in for a well-loved servant of football on Portland.
Daughter Donna Marquis led the tributes to her father Barry Lawley, who was involved with Portland United Football Club for 50 years.
Barry started playing for Portland back in the 1960s and went on to have a successful spell as manager of the club before retiring in 2000 and turning his hand to promoting junior football.
Donna, whose memories include sitting on doorsteps with her dad waiting for people to come home so he could sign them, said: "Even when he retired he was still looking after the juniors and bringing them on.
"He was very dedicated to his football."
A painter and decorator by trade, Barry was well loved by all he encountered in football circles and Donna said she has already had more than 200 people getting in touch to express their sympathies after he died last week at the age of 75 after a long illness.
She said: "The main thing everybody said is what a top bloke he was.
"It's such a nice testament to him."
Barry, pictured above in 1992, spent the last two weeks of his life at the Queen Charlotte Nursing Home in Chickerell but prior to that had spent 17 months at the Chalbury Unit at Weymouth Community Hospital after being diagnosed with dementia.
Donna said she could not praise staff at the unit enough for the way they had supported not just Barry but the whole family.
She said: "They are absolutely amazing people and they go above and beyond."
Barry's funeral will be held at All Saints Church in Wyke Regis from 12.30pm on Tuesday, March 18 and his ashes will later be scattered on the centre circle of the pitch at his beloved Portland United Football Club.
A minute's silence was also held in Barry's memory before the side's match at Bridport on Saturday.
Former Portland United chairman Pete Turrell, who spent several successful years jointly managing the club with Barry, said: "The amount of people he helped through football is second to none.
"He was a one-off and everybody knows that."
He added: "What he has done for Portland I don't think anybody will ever forget."
Darren Whyton, who helped organise a charity match in Barry's name last year that raised around £800 for the Chalbury Unit, said: "He was a friend of the family for over 30 years and he was one of the nicest men anyone could ever meet. If you wanted something doing he would go out of his way to help out."
A statement published on the official Dorset Premier League website said: "On behalf of officers and league management committee it is with regret that we announce the news that ex-Portland United stalwart Barry Lawley passed away after a long illness.
"Barry was a well-known figure at Portland United having been a player before becoming a joint manager with Peter Turrell, with whom he guided the Islanders to a double double, winning the league and league cup in seasons 1998/99 and 1999/2000.
"Our condolences go to all his family and friends at Portland United FC."

Even some of his bitter enemies would now have to concede that Benjamin Netanyahu is a giant on the Israeli political scene. The results of Israel's elections mean that the Likud leader is now likely to serve a record fourth term as prime minister, making him his country's longest-serving prime minister ever. More than ever, "Bibi" is now confirmed as the international face of Israel. Read more

text: A head-spinning calamity of mixed messages, clashing tones, and jumping genres, Yojiro Takita's action-comedy-melodrama Made In Japan skewers and embraces the Japanese business ethic, views a developing nation as both charmingly rustic and irredeemably savage, and changes in a cut from lighthearted to bloody. Originally released in 1993, the film's interest in corporate globalization gives it just as much resonance today, provided that anyone can sort out exactly what it's trying to say. In the first half, Takita lampoons four hapless drones in business suits, company men whose excessive devotion to the workplace has wreaked havoc on their family life and aided in the exploitation of Third World nations. In the second, this same corporate mindset leads to their ultimate survival, promoting a sense of teamwork, collective ingenuity, and nationalist pride. So which is it? Column A or Column B? The confusion begins when Hiroyuki Sanada, a low-ranking official for the Sansei Construction Company, is dispatched to the developing Southeast Asian country of Talckistan, where a military regime is accepting bids on a lucrative bridge project. Joined by Sansei comrade Tsutomu Yamazaki, a senior executive who has been laying the groundwork for three years, Sanada pitches his design against two suave dirty dealers (Ittoku Kishibe and Kyusaku Shimada) from a competing firm. When guerrilla fighters stage the umpteenth coup attempt on the regime, the four men band together in an intrepid effort to get out of the country, crossing through 10 kilometers of street fighting and mine-filled jungle to reach the airport. Along the way, Made In Japan alternates wacky slapstick comedy with gratuitous low-grade action footage, following a broad Abbott & Costello bit involving a giant snake with the graphic slaughter of a farming village by a military helicopter. Of the film's few laughs, most wind up sticking in the throat, muted by the unpleasantness that follows. There's potent satire lurking somewhere in this mess, but without first identifying a target, Takita doesn't stand a chance of hitting it.

I'm simply not capable of going along with the crowd. I've tried really, but it seems to be metaphysically impossible for me. I steadfastly resist categories, so we're just going to have to deal with a little complexity and individuality, okay? Let's see...I'm an artist and a teacher, totally fascinated by the world around me. I tend to look beneath the surface of things and I'm always eager to experience the world in a deeper way. I speak my truth, and I appreciate others who do the same. Nourished by nature, I'm totally energized by plunging into it with my whole body. Whether it's scuba diving, trekking in the mountains, sailing, surfing, mountain biking, or anything else that gets me moving in the elements, I'm happy. It would be great to meet someone who shares this passion. I kind of like to rough it when I travel, but I have no problem appreciating comforts. I'm also a slightly nerdy, only mildly neurotic, creative intellectual with a keen wit, a dry sense of humor, an alarming diversity of interests and an appetite to do it all. Whatever you fancy, I'm probably in. I tend to make bold choices in life.
I'm looking for an unusual, talented, intelligent and creative woman who is playful and emotionally honest, someone who isn't afraid to color outside of the lines. I'm a fan of intellectual curiosity, an adventurous spirit and a nurturing soul.
Lately I've been making my living in real estate, but I'm also a stage director, and movement/drama teacher.
(ok, that's totally a lie. I don't think about what to write in this box at all, that's why I wrote 'what to write in this box.' in this box. I thought maybe that might be a clever little joke, but reading it back I just thought "huh, that's kind of lame really. I mean I think about lots and lots of things...ALL of the time..and all I could think to write in this box was 'what to write in this box.'"?!)

At least 50 Palestinians were killed on Sunday by Israeli shelling in a Gaza neighbourhood, where bodies were strewn in the street and thousands fled for shelter to a hospital packed with wounded, witnesses and health officials said.
As the number of dead mounted, Israel and Gaza's dominant Hamas movement agreed to a two-hour "humanitarian truce" in that area, from 1:30pm. to 3:30pm, at the request of the Red Cross. Fighting continued elsewhere in Gaza.
The mass casualties in Shejaia, in north-east Gaza, were the heaviest since Israel launched its offensive on the Palestinian territory on July 8 after cross-border rocket strikes by militants intensified.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who is based in the occupied West Bank, accused Israel of carrying out a massacre and declared three days of mourning.
The Israeli military said on Sunday Hamas had deployed rockets and built tunnels and command centres in Shejaia.
"Two days ago, residents of Shejaia received recorded messages to evacuate the area in order to protect their lives," an Israeli military spokeswoman said.
Anguished cries of "Did you see Ahmed?" "Did you see my wife?" echoed through the courtyard of Gaza's Shifa hospital, a where panicked residents of Shejaia gathered in family groups, seeking a safe haven. Inside, bodies and wounded lay on blood-stained floors.
Elderly men there said the Israeli attack was the fiercest they had seen since the 1967 Middle East war, when Israel captured Gaza.
Shifa hospital's director, Naser Tattar, said 17 children, 14 women and four elderly were among the 50 dead, and about 400 people were wounded in the Israeli assault.
Gaza's Health Ministry officials said at least 385 Palestinians, many of them civilians, have been killed in the 13-day conflict and about 2600 have been wounded.
On Israel's side, two civilians have been killed by cross-border fire and five soldiers have died in fighting. More than 50 Israeli troops have been wounded, hospital officials said.
Thousands fled Shejaia, some by foot and others piling into the backs of trucks and sitting on the hoods of cars filled with families trying to get away. Several people rode out of the neighbourhood of 100,000 in the shovel of a bulldozer.
Video given to Reuters by a local showed at least a dozen corpses, including three children, lying in rubble-filled streets, though the footage could not be verified independently.
There were no signs of a breakthrough on diplomatic efforts to get a permanent ceasefire, and militants kept up their rocket fire on Israel. Sirens sounded in southern Israeli towns and in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area. There were no reports of casualties on the Israeli side.
Hamas had urged people across the territory not to heed the Israeli warnings and abandon their homes.
As the tank shells began to land, Shejaia residents called radio stations pleading for evacuation. An air strike on the Shejaia home of Khalil al-Hayya, a senior Hamas official, killed his son, daughter-in-law and two grandchildren, hospital officials said.
Israel, which has accused Hamas of using civilians as human shields by launching rockets from residential areas, sent ground forces into the Gaza Strip on Thursday after 10 days of air, naval and artillery barrages failed to stop the salvoes.
The military said it beefed up its presence on Sunday, with a focus on destroying missile stockpiles and a vast tunnel system Hamas built along the frontier that crosses into Israel.
"It has been a tough day of combat, but it won't deter us," Israeli Finance Minister Yair Lapid said, without referring to events in Shejaia.
"The operation is necessary and, if needed, we will broaden it," he told reporters while visiting wounded Israeli soldiers in a hospital in the southern city of Beersheba.
Egypt, Qatar, France and the United Nations, among others, have all been pushing for a diplomatic solution, with little sign of progress.
Qatar was due to host a meeting between Mr Abbas and United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Sunday, a senior Qatari source said. Mr Ban was due to travel to Kuwait, Egypt, Israel, the Palestinian Territories and Jordan during the week, the UN said.
The Qatari source said Mr Abbas would also meet Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal.
Mr Abbas struck a deal with Hamas in April that led to the formation of a Palestinian unity government and Israel's pullout from US-brokered peace talks.
Hamas has already rejected one Egyptian-brokered truce, saying any deal must include an end to a blockade of the coastal area and a recommitment to a ceasefire reached after an eight-day war in Gaza in 2012.
Egypt said on Saturday that it had no plans to revise its ceasefire proposal. A Hamas source in Doha said the group has no plans to change its conditions for a ceasefire.
Hostilities escalated following the killing last month of three Jewish students that Israel blames on Hamas. Hamas neither confirmed nor denied involvement.
The apparent revenge murder of a Palestinian youth in Jerusalem, for which Israel has charged three Israelis, further fuelled tension.
The Israeli death toll has been kept low due to the rockets' relative inaccuracy, a network of air-raid sirens and shelters and the Iron Dome rocket interceptor's 90 per cent success rate.

Reflex magnifier
I'm looking around to buy a magnifier on my sight mark reflex sight. My question is I have a carry handle that I'm putting it on, how far behind the sight does it have to be, I don't have alot of room on the handle.
You're putting a carry handle on a flat top rail? I wouldn't use it for optics, just keep it as a spare or when you want to go retro and instead use a flip up BUIS with the optics.

The Iceland poppy is an often-overlooked item in the landscape, but it deserves a spot in the garden or containers. The showy Iceland poppy with its large, delicate blooms is a delight to behold. Iceland poppies provide cheer and warmth to a winter landscape, garden or container. Flowers come in a collage of colors including cream, orange, pink, rose, salmon, white and yellow.
If you currently have free garden or container space, plant the seeds — following seed packet instructions — directly where you want them to grow. If they are to replace other plants later on, start the seeds in pots for later transplanting. In addition, many local nurseries will now have, or soon have, a good supply of Iceland poppy plants. You will save a good deal of growing time by purchasing plants.
Iceland poppies should have sunny locations and must have a well-draining soil and no fertilizer. If planting transplants, space them about 7 inches apart.
Recommended varieties include Champagne Bubbles, which has huge flowers and blooms early; Wonderland, which also has huge flowers but small plants; and Sparkling Bubbles, which produces prolific blooms on medium-size plants. Popsicle mix is a blend of red, orange, yellow, pink and white flower colors.
Depending upon variety, the plants range in size from 12 to 18 inches in height. Blooms range from 2 to 5 inches across.
If planting in containers, Iceland poppies are quite attractive when blended with darker-colored pansies or violas.
Iceland poppies are marvelous cut flowers and, unlike other poppies, the cut ends don't have to be seared to ensure that they last long in bouquets.
In recent years container gardening has become almost as popular as traditional soil gardening. This is especially true in the more high-density population areas where soil gardening space is severely limited.
There are many advantages to growing flowers, vegetables and herbs in containers in a sunny area of your patio or balcony. In container gardening, weeding is minimized, insect control is easy and you never have to cultivate. You can also control climate, soil diseases and watering much more precisely than a dirt gardener can. And don't overlook the landscaping potential of container gardening. Pots of flowers and herbs can lend a touch of beauty to a drab patio or deck. And you can grow 100 carrots in a half-barrel container.
A fall cleanup program will prove most helpful in decreasing your pest problems next spring. Insects and diseases tend to survive the winter in the comfort of plant debris. Snails and slugs are a particular problem now, as they can decimate plants almost overnight. An immaculate garden and strict vigilance are the best defenses.
Ranunculus devotees consider them to be among the world's most beautiful flowers. Their spectacular color range includes red, pink, rose, yellow, orange, gold and white. Ranunculuses are fairly easy to grow and are a good bet for either garden or containers. Later this month through November, when the soil has cooled, is the best time to plant ranunculuses in our gardens. However, you should purchase the tubers now while there is a choice supply and before they have been picked over in the nursery; store the tubers in a cool, dark, dry area until planting time.
When you plant your fall bulbs, add a time-release fertilizer to the soil. Nutrients will be released over a long period of time and will feed the plants periodically as they mature.
Although you won't be able to enjoy their color until next spring, October is a choice month for planting perennials. By planting them now, they will develop a strong root structure during our cool weather and then burst into glorious color in the spring. Check with your favorite nursery or garden center or your 2009 seed catalogs for some of the exciting new perennial plant varieties that are being introduced this year.
Many gardeners and gourmets feel that the butterhead varieties have the best flavor of all the lettuce types. Also known as Boston or bibb lettuce, the heads are soft and fragile in texture and contain a buttery-colored heart surrounded by vivid green outer leaves. The spongy leaves have a delicate, sweet, buttery flavor. The heads of butterhead lettuce are very loosely folded and never become solid. October is a good month to plant butterhead lettuce from bedding plants or seeds. It grows well in either garden or containers.
Although some gardening books recommend that you prune your hedges or shrubs in the fall, in the San Diego area it is best to wait until winter before major pruning. In our climatic conditions, most hedges and shrubs are still growing vigorously in the fall and if pruned severely now, it will take a long time for the plants to recover. Wait until January when growth slows considerably.
To answer questions for home gardeners, area master gardeners staff a "hortline" on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and can be reached at (858) 694-2860 or at mastergardenerssandiego.org .

Cops Pull Plug on Rent-a-Fraudster Service for Bank Thieves
[Subject line won't allow a long title.]
http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/0 ... ervicebiz/
Two Belarusian nationals suspected of operating a rent-a-fraudster service for bank and identity thieves have been arrested overseas, according to New York authorities, who unsealed an indictment for one of the suspects on Monday.
Dmitry Naskovets, 25, and Sergey Semashko, 25, are suspected of creating and operating CallService.biz, a Russian-language site for identity criminals who trafficked in stolen bank-account data and other information. The website displayed an FBI logo Monday and the message, "This domain has been seized by the Federal Bureau of Investigation."
The thieves obtained the information through various means, such as phishing attacks and malware placed on victims' computers to log their keystrokes.
CallService.biz would then have someone who matched the legitimate account holder's gender and was proficient in the needed language, pose as the account holder and call the financial institution to authorize the fraudulent transaction.
One client, for example, requested assistance in July 2007 with illegally siphoning $35,000 from a checking account owned by someone in Westchester County, New York. The wire transfer occurred July 17.
This is great news, and may finally slow down some of the activity Brian Krebs has been documenting for some time now.

Daisuke Yamai allowed a run in seven innings for the Chunichi Dragons on Saturday afternoon in a 4-1 win over the Central League-leading Yomiuri Giants.
The Dragons moved to within 4-1/2 games of the Giants behind Yamai (8-2), who set a career high for wins in a season. Chunichi is now one game behind third-place Hiroshima.
Yamai held the Giants to five hits and a walk, while striking out seven. With the Dragons having deactivated Japan's all-time saves leader Hitoki Iwase earlier in the day, the 36-year-old right-hander wanted to go deep into the game at Tokyo Dome.
"Because we're without Iwase, I wanted to go as many innings as I could and I was aiming for a complete game or a shutout," Yamai said. "With that in mind, I was intent on doing whatever I possibly could out there today."
With lefty Iwase out of the picture, Dragons skipper Motonobu Tanishige turned to a pair of rookies out of the bullpen. Katsuki Matayoshi, the Dragons' second draft pick last year, worked a 1-2-3 eighth, while Koji Fukutani, who leads the CL with 28 holds, threw a scoreless ninth to notch his second save.
"He (Yamai) was a little shaky at the start, but once we got a run, he was able to ride that momentum and fix some issues," said Tanishige, who started at catcher for Chunichi. "He was in such great form at the start of the season, and then went into a funk. Perhaps this one win will help him stay loose."
The skipper broke the ice with a second-inning sacrifice fly off struggling Giants ace Tetsuya Utsumi (2-7). The Yomiuri southpaw allowed three runs on seven hits and a walk over six innings.
The Dragons widened their lead in the sixth on a two-run home run by Ryosuke Hirata, while 20-year-old Shuhei Takahashi hit a pinch-hit homer in the ninth.
The Giants' only run came on a seventh-inning RBI double by catcher Seiji Kobayashi.
Tigers 5, Carp 4
At Osaka's Kyocera Dome, southpaw Atsushi Nomi (6-10) allowed a run over seven innings to earn his first win since May 24 as Hanshin hitters scored four runs in four innings off Hiroshima rookie Daichi Osera (6-6) to move to within a half game of first place.
BayStars 5, Swallows 4
At Yokohama Stadium, Yoshitomo Tsutsugo homered and drove in four runs to spoil former Hawks star Nagisa Arakaki's debut with Tokyo Yakult, while Enyelbert Soto worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the ninth to save it for Yokohama.
The last-place Swallows reached double digits in hits for the 10th straight game, extending their franchise record.
Hawks 4, Fighters 3 (10)
At Fukuoka's Yafuoku Dome, league-leading Fukuoka Softbank manufactured a 10th-inning run to win its seventh straight game after Hokkaido Nippon Ham tied it with a three-run ninth.
Speedster Akira Nakamura reached on a leadoff single, went to third on an errant pickoff throw, was sacrificed to third and scored on Masayoshi Tsukada's pinch-hit sacrifice fly.
Lions 16, Marines 5
At Chiba's QVC Marine Field, Ernesto Mejia hit a three-run fourth-inning jack, his 20th home run of the season to spark Seibu, which scored nine times in the ninth and had 21 hits to turn out the lights on Chiba Lotte.
Buffaloes at Eagles — ppd.

I love the sensations a printed newspaper offers. The scent, the feel, the look of it. It's part of the nostalgia that is print. Nostalgia? Yes, nostalgia. A printed newspaper is the way we used to read our news. For the first time ever, more people read their news online versus in print. All the fit-for-print news is now fit-for-digital too.
This finding is from recent Pew Project for Excellence in Journalism surveys that found 34% read news online within a 24 hour period before the survey, compared to 31% read newspapers. I know, it's a slim margin… but it's still a margin.
For me, it's a question of convenience. A newspaper isn't that practical anymore for me. When I can access the world's news on my smartphone or Kindle, wherever I am, it doesn't make sense to have the paper dropped at the end of my driveway anymore. I know a lot of you will disagree, but sooner or later, you'll have to let go. Print is dying, a long, slow death. Just like Morse code, bunny ears, and typewriters, advancements in technology push out the old. [Read more…]

Fracturing Some Oil Myths
Alexander Reed Kelly
A recent Wall Street Journal article highlighted fracking as a way to reduce American dependence on Middle Eastern oil. But Mother Jones blogger Kevin Drum points out that we don't rely all that much on Arab oil, and fracking is almost beside the point.
— Posted by Alexander Reed Kelly
Kevin Drum at Mother Jones:
… Oil consumption has dropped nearly 2 million barrels per day since 2007. Over the same period, U.S. imports of oil have dropped 2.1 million barrels per day.
So how much oil do we import from the Persian Gulf? Answer: in 2007 we imported 2.1 million barrels per day, about 10% of our total consumption. The fact is that we've never heavily relied on Persian Gulf oil, and if we had chosen to, we could have cut Middle East imports to zero based solely on our drop in consumption over the past few years. Far from trying to wean ourselves off Middle East oil, we've made a conscious decision to keep buying it.

Lapland, December. An American expedition locates the original Santa Claus, buried in an ice-filled mountain. Pietari (Onni Tommila), son of reindeer hunter Rauno (Jorma Tommila), fears that the primal, original, vengeful Santa has been unloosed.
Finnish writer-director Jalmari Helander first explored the dark origins of Father Christmas in a pair of YouTube shorts, Rare Exports Inc and The Official Rare Exports Inc Safety Instructions, which follow skilled trappers in Lapland who hunt wild Santas and train them to be benevolent, child-friendly Christmas icons. This feature-length prequel shows how the business began, and reveals what the feral, naked old men who run wild in the frozen wastes actually are. It's also an essay in the kind of kid-friendly horror popular in the '80s (think Gremlins or The Monster Squad ), albeit with sub-titles, slaughtered reindeer and plentiful geriatric-male nudity.
Many horror films have exploited the fact that a lot of kids, and many grown-ups, are not that comfortable with a jolly fat man who comes down the chimney — from the psycho Santa who throttles Joan Collins in Tales From The Crypt, to the ho-ho-homicidal maniacs of the Silent Night, Bloody Night series. Rare Exports comes at the subject from a different angle, dismissing "the Coca-Cola Santa Claus" as a modern sham which distorts a Finnish myth-figure keener on punishing the naughty than rewarding the nice. The opening archaeological dig has overtones of The Thing, as a vast, horned creature is discovered trapped in the ice under a remote mountain and workmen are issued strict instructions about not cursing, smoking or drinking in its presence. Then, young Pietari (Onni Tommila) is the only one in a small community who guesses close to the truth when his father — cheated out of an annual reindeer hunt because something else has torn the animals to pieces — traps a filthy, bearded, snarling old man.
Like the shorts, this offers very black humour and a strange mix of revisionist mythology, gruesome horror and authentic Christmas spirit. It has a gritty, outdoorsy feel appropriate to an exploration of the brutal side of a harsh, all-male life in an extreme climate, where an ancient way of life is threatened by changing attitudes — these could be seal-clubbers or whalers. Helander also shows suspense chops in vintage John Carpenter mode — the scenes with the captured Santa, a grinning creature waiting for a chance to kill, are good, straight horror stuff, and there's an effective climactic siege of bearded monsters.
If youre a bah-humbug type looking for an alternative to Santa Claus: The Movie or Miracle On 34th Street, this could be a holiday perennial. May be too strange for normal people, but weird kids will love it.

Group Description
Welcome to The Compact.
We are a group of individuals
committed to a 12-month flight from the consumer grid (calendar year 2015).
The Compact has several aims (more or less prioritized below):
- To
go beyond recycling
in trying to counteract the negative global environmental and socioeconomic
impacts of disposable consumer culture and to support
local businesses, farms, etc. -- a step that, we hope, inherits the revolutionary
impulse of the Mayflower Compact.
- To
reduce clutter and waste in our homes (as in trash Compact-er).
- To
simplify our lives (as in Calm-pact)
We've agreed to follow two principles (see exceptions etc. on our blog).
#1 Don't buy new products
of any kind (from stores, web sites, etc.)
#2 Borrow, barter, or buy used.
