Hey guys! Kate here.
So Leah has officially completed her big move and is safe and sound in Australia! As happy as we are for her to embark on this huge adventure, it was pretty tough for the fam to say goodbye to her for a year. If you've ever had a loved one go away, you know how hard it is to excited for them but be sad at the same time. You also feel like you should do something special so they know you care about them when they're a bazillion miles away. If you're at a loss for a unique, meaningful gift, here are five goodbye gifts that will wow the pants off your traveling buddy. These can be modified in any way so they could work for your best friend, your siblings, or your significant others.
1. Plane Activity Book: Leah came up with this idea when I first left for Tokyo six years ago, and I recently made one for Leah on her big trip to Australia. If your friend is in for long haul in that metal tube, you want to give them something to do! Grab a Duo-Tang (or a folder with prongs, for you Americans) and fill it up with all sorts of activities for your loved on to complete. Examples could be:
- Letters of encouragement from friends and family
- Word searches about the country they're going to (just Google the name of the country and then 'word search' and you'll find tons!)
- Make you own crosswords! Websites like A to Z Teacher Stuff let you create your own crosswords. You could do it on things like your family and friends, trivia of their favourite television series, or random facts about their hobby. I made Leah one based on our novel, Jane Unwrapped.
- Printed out poems or excerpts from novels. (The "I must not fear" passage from Frank Herbert's Dune is an essential for any adventure in our family!)
- Special photographs in plastic sleeves
- Writing activities to keep your friend occupied. For example, in Leah's book, I wrote on the top of a blank page of paper: Write a letter to yourself to read on the way home
- You need to be brave
- You are homesick
- You need a laugh
- Life is good
- You need to remember your dreams
- You miss your ex
- You need some tough love
- You need to remember how much I love you
- We get good news about Jane
- It's all too much
3. Scratch Map: Leah's goodbye present to herself was one of these awesome scratch maps from Chapters; a world map where you can scratch off everywhere you've been. If you wanted to personalize it for your wandering friend, write specific bucket-list activities you know they want to accomplish on the back for them to check off. They'll feel awesome when they scratch off Nepal on the front and "Climb to Mt. Everest base camp" on the back!
4. Homesick Fix: As pumped up as your traveling friend is, there's a good chance at one point during their travels they'll feel a little homesick. Get a small, light-weight scrapbook and fill it with their favourite photographs, along with associated memories. If you have space, you can even include little keepsakes, like special receipts, tickets, or notes. Make sure you include an encouraging note at the end though! It's supposed to give them a taste of home, not make them miss you more.
5. Emergency Loneliness Kit: Well, this one's a bit of a stretch as a goodbye present, because it's not for the person who's leaving. My significant other knew I would be upset about Leah leaving, so he prepared an Emergency Loneliness Kit: a box filled with Kleenex, my favourite drinks and junk food, and funny knick-knacks like Silly String and glow-in-the-dark balloons. Maybe it's not your traveling friend that needs the present when they leave, but their spouse, sibling, or parent. On the flip side, you can always make a small-scale version of this to slip into your wandering pal's bag! (Just make sure it doesn't include any liquids!)
I hope this sparked your imagination for a few creative goodbye gifts. A personalized gift will not only mean a lot to the receiver, but it can also be cathartic for the creator: it allows you to make peace with the good-bye and get all your feelings out on paper.
What's the most meaningful goodbye present you've ever received?

Your mom was wrong: Do talk to strangersJuly 9, 2015 Updated: July 9, 2015 2:04pm
You know the classic stereotype of men, that they are always reluctant to ask for directions? Shameful, isn't it, categorizing one entire gender as having some sort of weird character flaw? We must all battle against stereotypes!

I have this issue with my back, it really effects me in the mornings or any time it has time to stiffen up because I have not been moving around very much. The big problem is that it interferes with my daily routine in that it takes a long time for me to get out of bed and get moving in the morning. I have to find a Vacaville chiropractor that I can trust, that is not a big deal for a lot of people who do not really think it through. They might just look on the web and pick whichever one was closest or most convenient to them. It is not so simple if you really know what this stuff is all about and how bad things can be if they go wrong if the chiropractor makes a really bad mistake. That does not happen all that often, but it is enough so that you really need to think about this sort of thing pretty good.
At any rate when you think about it, this is a really difficult and sensitive thing to do. The chiropractor is in the business of moving things around until they are in the proper places relative to one another. The things that they are moving around are the vertebra in your back and your neck, so if they mess that up it is not going to be great for you. In fact the worst thing that could happen is probably not ending up dead, although that is a small possibility. At least I think that being paralyzed would be the worst possible outcome for me. If you die, then everything is over and done with. If you are turned into an invalid, then you have years or decades of being a burden to those you love.

Historical (vintage & retro) Iraq/babylon photos and stuff. UNESCO aims to make the 4,000-year-old city fit for the coveted title of World Heritage site, and will work to enforce international conventions on the protection of historic sites "so that what happened to Babylon can't ever happen again," said Francoise Riviere, the agency's undersecretary general for culture. Archaeologist John Curtis of the British Museum, who inspected the site just after it was returned to Iraqi control, said it was too soon to assess the cost of restoring and fully protecting the site. Several initiatives to save Babylon have been announced in recent years, but have made little headway. Now, with the decline of violence in Iraq, hopes are pinned on a two-year, $700,000 project financed by the U.S. State Department to develop a program aimed at balancing tourism and archaeology at Babylon.

Los Angeles, July 1: On Wednesday, Steven Spielbergs apocalyptic thriller War of the Worlds invaded movie theatres worldwide. But the director had already moved on. That night in Malta, Spielberg quietly began filming the most politically charged project he has yet attempted: the tale of a secret Mossad hit squad ordered to assassinate Palestinian terrorists after the massacre of Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics in Munich.
Spielberg has taken risks before: he said he feared being seen as trivialising the Holocaust when he directed Schindlers List in 1993, at a time when he was best known for blockbuster fantasies like E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial. And with Saving Private Ryan, he gambled successfully on audiences tolerance for prolonged and bloody combat scenes.
But with the as-yet-untitled Munich film, already scheduled for Oscar-season release by Universal Pictures on December 23, Spielberg is tackling material delicate enough that he and his advisers are concerned about adverse effects on matters as weighty as the Israeli-Palestinian peace process if his project is mishandled ' or misconstrued in the public mind.
Indeed, the movies terrain is so packed with potential land mines that, associates say, Spielberg has sought counsel from advisers ranging from his own rabbi to the former American diplomat Dennis Ross, who in turn has alerted Israeli government officials to the films thrust.
Spielberg has also shown the script to Rosss old boss, former President Bill Clinton. Clintons aides said Spielberg reached out to him first more than a year ago and again as recently as Tuesday.
The film, which is being written by the playwright Tony Kushner ' it is his first feature screenplay ' begins with the killing of 11 Israeli athletes in Munich. But it focuses on the Israeli retaliation: the assassinations, ordered by Prime Minister Golda Meir, of Palestinians identified by Israeli intelligence as terrorists, including some not directly implicated in the Olympic massacre.
By highlighting such a morally vexing and endlessly debated chapter in Israeli history ' one that introduced the still-controversial Israeli tactic now known as targeted killings ' Spielberg could jeopardise his tremendous stature among Jews.
He earned that prestige largely for his treatment of the Holocaust in Schindlers List and his philanthropic efforts to preserve testimonies of concentration camp survivors.
Making matters more complicated, an important source for Spielbergs narrative is a 1984 book by George Jonas, Vengeance, based on the account of a purported member of the Mossads assassination team, whose veracity was later called into question.
In Kushners script, people who have read it say, the Israeli assassins find themselves struggling to understand how their targets were chosen, whether they belonged on the hit list and, eventually, what, if anything, their killing would accomplish.

I have one laptop that keeps asking for the bit locker key. I will put the key in boot the machine, suspend bit locker and reboot, and re-enable bit locker to recalc the hash and reboot again. the machine will be good for a day or 2 then it will refuse to boot until I enter the key again. I am at a loss as to why this keeps happening.
any ideas?

Try suspending the bitlocker upon boot, then reboot the machine, and then re-enable bitlocker.
Feb 23, 2012 at 9:25 UTC
Jay, as I said in my question that works for a day or 2 then the issue returns
Feb 23, 2012 at 9:33 UTC
Sorry, missed that. Do you have other identical machines with no such problem or is this one machine unique in hardware or software? If one machine, non-unique, might be easier and faster to just start fresh.
Feb 23, 2012 at 9:39 UTC
I have 5 of these laptops that are identical. I have had one other one in the past that has asked for the key, but the suspend, reboot, resume fixed it for that machine. the others have had no issues
The laptop is an HP EliteBook 8540w
Feb 23, 2012 at 9:40 UTC
and its a manager's laptop of course
Feb 23, 2012 at 9:47 UTC
But of course, so getting time to fix it is next to zero. So.......easier/faster/cheaper to swap out/re-image/uninstall/reinstall bitlocker.....or, cheaper/faster/easier spend 200 bucks and call Microsoft?

Is Unemployment Improving due to policies of the President or of Republican Governors?
Is Unemployment Improving due to policies of the President or of Republican Governors?
Ohio is the most important swing state due to the Electoral College and the current polling numbers, so it's no wonder that Obama is touting the unemployment numbers in Ohio which are lower than the national average. When President Obama took office the unemployment rate in Ohio was 8.6% and it is currently 7% (the national average is 7.8%). The Republicans have been attacking Obama for high unemployment rates (pretty much during his entire Presidency) and so this causes a problem for them. They certainly aren't going to just let Obama have this as a win, so they need a different story.
The story they've decided on is that President Obama's policies didn't do anything, but instead they want to claim the glory for Republican Governors of the states. They are trying to make the argument that the reason why unemployment numbers are dropping is because of those Republican policies and that the "blue state" policies are not working.
It got me thinking... are the states with Republican Governors doing better with unemployment? I built two charts to find out.
One of these charts shows the unemployment rates for all of the Republican Governor states and the other is the all of the Democratic Governor states (Rhode Island is excluded because RI has an Independent Governor, sorry!). Based on the direction that unemployment rates are changing in these charts.... can you tell which is the Republican chart and which is the Democratic chart?
(click image for larger version)
Both of these charts seem to show the same downward trend (despite a couple of high outliers on the chart on the right). The slope of the lines seem to be about the same.. it looks like the downward trend in unemployment rates is a nationwide effect. It doesn't seem to be isolated to Governors from a single party.
I took a look at the numbers for both of these charts to see if there was a real difference in the numbers that wasn't easy to see in the overall trend of the data.
I took the unemployment rates for January 2009 (when President Obama took office) and compared them with September 2012 (the most recent numbers as of the writing of this post). First, I calculated the difference for each state. For example, Ohio went from 8.6% to 7% so the difference is -1.6% (a larger negative number is better). Then I calculated the average of these differences, one average for the Democratic Governor states and one average for the Republican Governor states.
One of charts is -0.125% and the other chart is -0.252%. So, two things jumped out at me when I saw those numbers:
1) They are both negative which means, on average, the states are in better shape than they were when President Obama took office.
2) They are VERY VERY close. The numbers don't betray a big difference for either chart.
These charts do not show a partisan trend; they show a national trend.
The data shows that Democratic Governor states are improving the same amount that Republican Governor states are improving.
It is a national recovery.

this game was quite entertaining if you ask me.. I played it a few times ^_^-b
Trial and error
There's no real skill-based way to figure out where the mines are placed - either you get lucky or you blow yourself up and try to remember where you died the second time around...and then die again when you hit another mine after you passed the first one. The mines reset every game, too, so a path that was safe the first game could blow you up the second.
This could be a pretty good game, though, with a little tweaking. If the creator added an actual puzzle-based element rather than letting the player rely almost solely on luck, or (if determined to stick with the luck aspect) gave the player enough lives to use the trial-and-error method intuitively (as three is far too few), the game would be much more playable. The pacing could be made a bit faster (or the slowness of movement could be turned into a tactical advantage - for example, giving the character time to warn the player of impending doom, which I first thought was the point - but then was proven wrong after exploding another five times or so).
The characters are cute, the music is epic, and someone spent a fair bit of time on designing the explosion. Using a bit more of that time on gameplay would have / could make this game much better.
Thanks for taking time to vote and writing a review. My goal was to make a simple hilarious and funny game rather than a clone of the famous-infamous Minefield-FlowerCamp of microsoft. Hope you find the game funny.

Portland, Oregon (PressExposure) January 13, 2010 -- Rentegration, a leading on-line property management software and rental forms supplier, made Colorado state-specific forms available today.
"We are delighted," says Luke Miller, Public Relations Manager. "The Colorado apartment and rental housing market is very stable in this rough economy, and very tech savvy. According to the recent Denver Apartment Research Report from Marcus & Millichap, the Denver apartment market is expected to outpace the nation in growth over the next year and Rentegration to grow with it."
Colorado joins Oregon, Arizona and Washington as the states where Rentegration supplies rental and lease forms.
"That's four down, forty-six to go," continues Miller. "Each state has different laws and nuances and it's important to make sure you know the lease agreement or rental agreement, etcetera that you're using complies with those laws. Generic forms can be okay, but they can also cost you as a landlord. We plan to offer assurance to owners and property managers, that they can have access to quality forms no matter where they are in America. At Rentegration, our goal is to eventually offer forms for all fifty states, whether you buy them one form at a time or use them as a part of our full blown software package."
What is next for Rentegration?
"State-wise, we'll be rolling out a forms set for Utah in the next few weeks and we have several other states in the works for early 2010," says Miller. "We also have some wonderful new features in the works. It's an exciting time for this company right now."
Rentegration is offering $20 off initial sign-up costs through. Use code WANFL09 at sign-up.

Your personal allowance
Income Tax
The amount of tax free income you can have in a year is called your personal allowance. It depends on your age; and can be affected by the level of your income. For couples one of whom is born before 6 April 1935 there is a Married Couple's Allowance. Blind people can get an additional allowance called the Blind Person's Allowance. We will see how this works by looking at the allowances individually.
- The Personal Allowance
- Age Allowance
- How the Age Allowance works
- Blind Person's Allowance
- Married Couple's Allowance
- The 'Marriage Allowance'
The Personal Allowance
Each tax year there is a basic amount of income that is tax-free. The amount of this 'personal allowance' is set for each tax year. For the tax year 2016-17 the basic personal allowance is £11,000 (2015-16 £10,600).
People with income above £100,000 will have their personal allowance reduced – if their income is high enough, they will not get a personal allowance at all (over £122,000 in 2016-17; over £121,200 in 2015-16) .
From 6 April 2015, 10% of the personal allowance is transferable between spouses and civil partners. This is usually done on-line. The allowance cannot be transferred if either partner pays higher rate (40%) tax.
Age Allowance – available up to 5 April 2016
Up to 5 April 2013, there was a higher rate of personal allowance (often called the 'Age Allowance') for people aged 65 or more. From 6 April 2013, these allowances were frozen and are no-longer be available to new claimants.
From April 2016, there will be single personal allowance as the frozen 'Age Allowance' of £10,660 is lower that the £11,000 available to everyone.
(There used to be two levels of age allowance: one for those born between 6 April 1938 and 5 April 1948, and the other for those born before 6 April 1938. But from 5 April 2015 the standard personal allowance for people born after 5 April 1948 (at £10,600) was greater that the 'age allowance' which was available for those born between 6 April 1938 and 5 April 1948 (of £10,500)).
The age allowances were targeted towards older tax payers who are also on lower incomes. If your income was below a set level (£27,000 for 2014-15; £27,700 for 2015-16) you received the full amount of the allowance. If your income went above this set level, your age allowance fell. It went down by £1 for every £2 of extra income, until it was the same as the basic personal allowance.
This means that if you qualified for the age allowance for people born before 6 April 1938, and your income was £27,820 in 2015-16 (£28,320 in 2014-15), your personal allowance was reduced to the standard £10,600 (£10,000 in 2014-15).
Note: The income figure used to calculate any restriction on your age allowance is reduced by gifts to charity under the gift aid scheme and a few other items – like business losses.
If your income in 2014-15 was £27,500 (£500 over the limit) and you are aged 78, your personal allowance will be £10,660 less £250 (half of £500), so £10,410. (The impact in 2015-16 was much reduced – as the age allowance was only £60 more than the basic allowance).
Blind Person's Allowance
A person who is registered blind with a local authority in England and Wales is entitled to an additional amount of tax-free income. In Scotland or Northern Ireland you will qualify for the allowance if your eyesight is such that you are unable to perform any work where your eyesight is essential.
The allowance is £2,290 for 2016-17, (£2,290 for 2015-16). This allowance is given in addition to the usual personal allowance or age allowance.
A blind person who has not got enough income to use this allowance can transfer it, or part of it, to his or her husband or wife, or civil partner.
There are more details about the allowance on the HM Revenue and Customs website pages at https://www.gov.uk/blind-persons-allowance
Married Couple's Allowance
To qualify for the married couple's allowance at least one member of the couple must have been born before 6 April 1935. This means that it is now only available to couples where one member was at least 81 on 5 April 2016. Since 5 December 2005, this allowance applies to civil partners as well as married couples.
The married couple's allowance is different from all the other personal allowances. It is given as a reduction to the tax bill. The maximum reduction for 2016-17 and 2015-16 is £835.50 (2014-15 £816.50) from the tax due.
The reduction of tax is worked out as 10% of the amount of the allowance. The allowance is £8,355 for 2016-17 and 2015-16 (£8,165 for 2014-2015), but, like age allowance, the married couple's allowance goes down by £1 for every £2 of income over the income limit (of £27,700 for 2016-17 and 2015-16; £27,000 for 2014-2015).
There is a minimum amount you will get, whatever your income. In 2016-17 and 2015-16 this amount is £3,220 (2014-15 – £3,140) – that is £322 will be taken off your tax bill (£3,220 at 10%). The equivalent figures for 2014-15 was a tax saving of £314 (based on £3,140 at 10%).
If you are getting both age allowance and married couple's allowance, and your income is over the income limit, then the age allowance is reduced first. This only applies for tax years to up to 5 April 2016.
There are a number of elections relating to the married couple's allowance and their impact on PAYE codings is complex.
Further information on the married couple's allowance can also be found on the HMRC website page at https://www.gov.uk/married-couples-allowance
The Marriage Allowance
From 6 April 2015 it is possible for some couples to transfer 10% of the personal allowance between them. This is being called the 'Marriage Allowance'. It is completely different from the Married Couple's Allowance. (The Married Couple's Allowance is a reduction in the tax bill which can be claimed by some couples aged 81 or over on 5 April 2016).
The conditions are:
- You are married or civil partners
- Neither you nor your partner pay tax at higher (40%) or additional (45%) rates
- You cannot claim both Marriage Allowance and Married Couple's Allowance (couples were one member is over 81, will claim Married Couple's Allowance instead)
The amount you transfer in 2106-17 is £1,100 (2015-16 is £1,060). That is 10% of the personal allowance of £11,000. The maximum tax saving is £220 in the year to 5 April 2017 (this is 20% x £1,100).
Making a claim
The partner with the lower income should make the claim.
You will need some information to prove your identity to HMRC. So make sure you have the details to hand:
- the last 4 digits of the account that your child benefit, tax credits or pension is paid into
- the last 4 digits of an account that pays you interest
- details from your year end pay and tax summary form (P60). Your employer should have given you this form for the year to 5 April before 31 May.
You will also need both your own and your partner's National Insurance numbers.
Go to https://www.gov.uk/marriage-allowance to make your claim.
If you are unable to make a claim on-line, you may phone HMRC on 0300 200 3300 and ask to make a Marriage Allowance claim. You will need the information listed above.
What happens next?
If your partner has income taxed under PAYE, such as an employment or pension, then their PAYE tax code will be increased by the amount of the available Marriage Allowance. This will mean that they pay slightly less tax.
More information
There is information on the Marriage Allowance on the Gov.uk website at https://www.gov.uk/marriage-allowance-guide.

No, this isn't the cover of a techno album, it's the web site of an art installation at the Old Essex Street Market at 117 Delancey (@ Essex) in New York's Lower East Side. In A Psychic Vacuum, artist Mike Nelson "[takes] audiences on an unexpected journey through reconstructed rooms, passageways, and meticulously assembled environments." It looks awesome.
Flickr member f.trainer wonderfully documented the various spaces a couple days after the opening. The images clearly show how the artist used "materials gleaned from local salvage yards and debris from the market's heyday," which would probably have been between the market's opening in 1940 and its eventual decline in the 1970s when supermarkets began to take hold.
Photo by f.trainer
The line between art and environment is blurred to the extent that the former appears to be non-existent (minus the room with 80 tons of sand), as if the spaces were found in their current condition, after being inaccessible to the public since the city gained control in 1995 and closed portions of the market. To this day the market still operates, though not on the scale of its heyday.
Photo by f.trainer
Of course, I can't say too much more about the spaces themselves, as I've yet to experience them in person. For sure I'll be visiting one of these weekends and will follow up with my own images and first-hand thoughts.

" In the years between the Sharpeville Massacre of 1960 and the Soweto Uprising of 1976-a period that was both the height of the apartheid system in South Africa and, in retrospect, the beginning of its end-Harold Scheub went to Africa to collect stories. With tape-recorder and camera in hand, Scheub registered the testaments of Swati, Xhosa, Ndebele, and Zulu storytellers, farming people who lived in the remote reaches of rural South Africa. While young people fought in the streets of Soweto and South African writers made the world aware of apartheid's evils, the rural storytellers resisted apartheid in their own way, using myth and metaphor to preserve their traditions and confront their oppressors. For more than 20 years, Scheub kept the promise he made to the storytellers to publish his translations of their stories only when freedom came to South Africa. The Tongue Is Fire presents these voices of South African oral tradition-the historians, the poets, the epic-performers, the myth-makers-documenting their enduring faith in the power of the word to sustain tradition in the face of determined efforts to distort or eliminate it. These texts are a tribute to the storytellers who have always, in periods of crisis, exercised their art to inspire their own people. "Inkululeku! Freedom! The word is beautiful, the word is precious. We have struggled against this political system from the beginning, we have nothing to be ashamed of. Our young people and our old have died striving for a better world. Our struggle will be successful, but it must never be forgotten. You must preserve our words, carry them to the wider world, but preserve them too for our posterity, that our children may never forget what we struggled for, what we lost, what we sought to gain. Freedom. Inkululeko."-Mandla Madlala, Zulu storyteller"

When your Chevrolet K30 left the factory, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who values long-lasting quality in their automobile.

Malik Yoba is speaking out in a new documentary that explores the fear of Black men and the stereotypes that encourage it.
Filmmaker Mya B is getting ready to release a documentary about the stigma that Black men face with Afraid of Dark. Examining the two major stereotypical depictions of Black men (Mandigo and the Brute), Mya aims to debunk "scientific racism."
The film comes as the nation continues to ponder the impact of Florida's Stand Your Ground Law that saw Trayvon Martin and Jordan Davis' respective killers walk away virtually scot-free. Not to mention the murder of New Yorker Sean Bell, who was gunned down by police just hours before his wedding.

Vegetarian Zucchini & Cucumber Low Carb/Calorie Lasagna for
Recipe by TVan8879
This isn't exactly like a lasagna since there aren't any pasta noodles. Instead of the pasta, there are layers of zucchini and cucumber. I accidently peeled a cucumber the first time I tried making a zucchini lasagna and ended up with this which tasted pretty good to me. You can make the whole thing out of just zucchini if you want. I use Fat Free Organic Spaghetti Sauce with Mushrooms from Trader Joe's.
Top Review by livinthefaith
This Zucchini Lasagna was AMAZING!! After reading another review, we used only zucchini as well. We also used dried chopped garlic instead of fresh garlic and it turned out great! It was so surprising how satisfying it was without having any meat in it...or even any of the other cheeses that are usually in lasagna. Our 6 and 4 year olds were even asking for seconds! We will definitely be making it again! Thank you for posting it!

Sindbjerg - Stoubjerg1/8
Krabbes Grønne Ring6/8
The largest area of forest in Denmark
The woodland in and around Silkeborg is the largest area of forest in Denmark. The Silkeborg region is thus an impressive area of natural beauty, unique in Denmark.
The Silkeborg lakes and the River Gudenå
In the Silkeborg region, you will find the River Gudenå and the largest concentration of lakes in Denmark. The water not only contributes to the area's unique character, but also lends itself to a host of outdoor activities such as canoeing, kayaking, swimming and fishing.
Himmelbjerget hill
A natural highlight is, of course, Himmelbjerget (literally "Sky mountain"). Standing at 147 metres above sea level, it protrudes into the landscape, and can be seen for miles, from land and water alike. You can get there by car, bike or on foot, and you can also sail there on board the world's oldest paddle steamer, Hjejlen.

Unique Nature
The Silkeborg region is just asking to be explored, whether on short or longer excursions. Every hilltop, every bay and every cove reveal new areas and opportunities for the taking. Tje unique nature is open to walkers, runners, cyclists, paddlers, ornithologists, picnickers and other nature lovers.
In the Silkeborg region, you can get right up close to nature – and nature is always close to you.
Where the abbey stood by the lake's rushes,
Behind the heather of the moor and heavy paths,
There is now a hive of activity,
The large mill wheels turn.
A small market town grows,
Towards the river, willow and alder bow,
In Denmark's Lake District, the eagle dwells,
Near the thousand mounds of the heath.
A piece of Danish loveliness
Is Silkeborg, it must be said,
Where the "Gudenå" is allowed
To look around the deep dark woods.
Near the river "Himmelbjerget" stands,
As firm as Norway's Dovre,
In the marsh walks the stork as black as coal
How beautiful and wonderful it is over there!
Quote (unofficial translation): Hans Christian Andersen
– A wealth of activities in the great outdoors
Find inspiration for activities in the Danish Nature Agency's brochure here...
The Silkeborg region offers various different areas of natural beauty, including woodland, heaths, lakes and the river.

Keystone XL Pipeline
November 20, 2011 by staff
Keystone XL Pipeline, Texas Rep. Ted Poe blasted the Obama administration for delaying a final decision on the proposed Keystone XL pipeline at least a year, accusing the administration of being "at war with American energy production."
Poe, R-Humble, said TransCanada Corp.'s proposed 1,700-mile pipeline for carrying tar-sands oil from Alberta, Canada, to Texas refineries could create thousands of domestic jobs and reduce U.S. oil imports from volatile Mideast nations. By delaying the decision, "we are just continuing down the road of high energy prices," said Poe, whose district includes the Port Arthur region that has refineries that will receive the crude.
"The people I talk to feel like this administration is at war with American energy production," Poe told Newsmax TV. "This is a perfect example."
Environmentalists oppose the project because they say tar-sands oil is an especially dirty form of energy. They're concerned that tar-sands oil takes more energy to extract than conventional oil, meaning more climate-warming greenhouse gases go into the air. They also are concerned the pipeline could spill and contaminate drinking-water supplies.
Poe said pipelines are "the safest way to transport crude oil in the whole world."
"We have to get this oil to our refineries some way," Poe said. "The environmentalists have not given us a solution except saying, 'We don't want this pipeline.'"
He added: "Why not trade with a stable partner rather than relying on Middle Eastern oil?"
