Sometimes we don't even notice how long we've been staring at our computer screens. But just like your shoulders and neck, your eyes tire easily. "Doing exercises for your eyes is like doing hip openers after sitting all day," says Karin Wiedemann of Urban Yoga in Washington, DC. Use these techniques to aleviate strain or to prevent it.
Eye Warming
You may unsubscribe at any time.
1. Sitting in a chair, rub your hands together to create heat in your palms.
2. Close your eyes and cup your palms over your eyes. This blocks out light and allows your eyes to absorb the heat from your hands.
3. Hold for 10 deep breaths, in and out, and repeat as necessary.
1. Stay in your chair, and don't move your head.
2. Look up to the ceiling, then look to your right, then down to the floor, then over to the left, and back up to the ceiling.
3. Repeat 5 times and then reverse directions for 5 more rounds.

I've never kissed anyone and it's not like I'm ugly or anything, there has just never been a boy who I wanted to start something with and if I'm not interested in him I always just shut down completely. I can't do anything about that, it's just my nature. but some of my friends have already had sex with different guys or made out many times and had many different boyfriends.
Most Helpful Guy
The fact that you think not being kissed is somehow bad only exemplifies how the young people today are so heavily influenced and deluded by a disgusting culture and pitiful social norms. I don't blame you for thinking that way since sex is subsidized.
It's completely fine. It's also completely fine to be a virgin, and don't let anyone pressure you into thinking differently.21|10|0
Most Helpful Girl
Just because you aren't "following" the pack, it doesn't mean anything. It's perfectly fine and it's not seen as bad either.11|00|0

New Zealand: A Look at it's Social Issues
A class project in Mr. Smith's English 10 at Cardinal Newman HS
Project Overview
Project Proposal
Wyatt Darien
Period 1
New Zealand
I chose New Zealand for my county for many reasons. I have seen pictures of its beautiful scenery. I also am a rugby player and know that the New Zealand has the best rugby team in the world. In addition to, I have no relative knowledge of New Zealand and it's culture. Finally my parents have been to New Zealand and they said that it was a amazing place.
I already know that New Zealand is a island located near australiais know for it's beautiful wildlife and nature. I have see pictures of their georgous lookout's and presteen wildlife. I know that the "Lord of The Rings" movies were shot in New Zealand.
I predict that I will educate myself on New Zealand's social issues and decide whether or not New Zealand will be a place which I would like to study abroad. I hope that I can learn about their culture and way of life. I also wish to learn about their Government and their social structures. It would be interesting to learn how New Zealand's social issues differ form America's social issues.

"China to Employ Customs Workers With a Nose for Hard Cash"
The New York Times
Bree Feng
February 13, 2015
China employs dogs in New Zealand that can smell the sent of money.
Quote: Bree Feng states, "China limits the amount private citizens can transfer out of the country to $50,000 a year.
But those seeking to leave or enter China with large sums of undeclared currency, whether for tourism or more suspect activities, will soon have new four-legged officers to contend with: cash-sniffing dogs.
This week, the deputy commissioner of the Chinese General Administration of Customs, Sun Yibiao, led a delegation to New Zealand, where he was briefed on a detector-dog training program that the country is helping China develop, the state-run news agency Xinhua reported."
Comment: Aloughough I agree that dogs should be used to sniff drugs, explosives and illegal cash, I disagree with China's law. Where a citizen can not take more then $50,000 dollars out of their country. I disagree because the law forces Chinese citizens to keep all of their hard earned wealth in China. Although I disagree with the law citizens need to listen to their government. Keeping this in mind I think that cash sniffing dogs would help New Zealand's customs and help keep illegal money from entering or leaving the country.

"New Zealand Increases Incentives for 'Avatar' Sequels"
The New York Times
Brooks Barnes
February 13, 2015
New Zealand increases for rebate for Century Fox to make the next 'Avatar' in New Zealand.
Quote: Brooks Barnes declares, "LOS ANGELES — Under an agreement between New Zealand and 20th Century Fox unveiled Monday, taxpayers in the island nation will pay for 25 percent of three mega-budget "Avatar" sequels in return for production jobs and other perks.
The financial incentives — a reversal from a government official's previous stance — clear the way for Fox's delayed "Avatar" sequels, directed by James Cameron, to arrive in theaters in Christmas 2016, 2017 and 2018.
New Zealand has long offered eye-popping incentives to Hollywood as a way to attract film productions that will create jobs, generate revenue and enhance the country's image as a tourist destination. The country pumped more than $200 million into the locally made "Lord of the Rings" and "Hobbit" movies and controversially rewrote a labor law to satisfy Warner Bros."
Comment: I believe that it is a great idea to have the next ''Avatar'' filmed in New Zealand. I agree that it will create new jobs and will increase New Zealand's tourism. Although I think that it will create new jobs and more tourism for New Zealand I disagree with Barnes when she states "taxpayers in the island nation will pa for 25 percent of the three mega-budget "Avatar" sequels". I do not think it is fair for the people of New Zealand to pay for 25 percent of the movie even when they are not associated with it in any way.

We've got the BEST Christmas porch ideas for you! It is finally the time to make your house shine with Christmas decor! I know many of us love to decorate the inside of our homes with Christmas trees and all that, but do you decorate your front porch? Add more than just a wreath to the door- holly, mini trees, and poinsettias are a few things you can spruce up your porches with. Here are some Christmas porches that will have your guests wanting to check out what you did!
Add double wreaths to your single front door, and some bright color by way of ribbons, bows and poinsettias!
If you've got a porch swing, add some Christmas pillows and a throw blanket. Set up a table if you've got room with some pine cones in a basket.
You can bring your ornaments outside and hang them from the ceiling! It adds a fun and whimsical touch.
Plaid pillows and a hot cocoa tray set up a festive look on this porch.
{ City Farmhouse }
Don't be afraid to add a lot of greenery to your porch and finish it off with ice skates, chalkboard art and wood.
I love the look of the big pots of Christmas greenery and berries. The double door wreaths are just the right touch of color.
{ Craftberry Bush }
Have fun with a non traditional wreath on your door, like this one with a bow, berries, and bells. Fresh garland frames a door nicely.
{ Decorchick }
Paint some polka dots on silver tins and plant mini trees in them. I love how snowflakes were added to the tree and the DIY wreath.
If simple is your look, several wreaths and a sleigh can be just perfect.
{ Rooms for Rent }
Add pine cones and ornaments to empty lanterns and adorn your door with garland and a wreath that matches.
Makeshift burlap trees with Christmas lights and a 'Charlie Brown' tree flank the sides of the swing beautifully. It never hurts to add festive pillows.
{ Liz Marie Blog }
A covered porch is a great place to add another Christmas tree! Turn it into another living area in your house.
{ Hymns & Verses }
Candles on the porch steps light up the way with hanging pine cones to greet you at the door.
The Christmas Tree Art is actually a great DIY to do with Sharpies. I love how a tall tin with greenery was added with pillows on the rockers.
Sleighs and vintage ice skates always give a great look to the front porch along with fresh garland.

Accountants understand the benefits of using invoice finance, but they are not recommending the option to clients, according to a recent survey.
Of the 101 accountants asked by commercial finance company IGF Invoice Finance, more than two thirds (67%) have never made use of invoice finance for their clients.
Despite this more than half (56%) said at least one of their current clients would benefit from this kind of facility, while some respondents said they had up to 20 clients who would benefit from it.

SEATTLE, Wash. - Jennifer Hamson led No. 12 BYU women's volleyball to a four-set (25-20, 25-19, 19-25, 26-24) victory Friday night at Alaska Airlines Arena to advance to the regional finals of the NCAA tournament.
"What an outstanding match," BYU head coach Shawn Olmstead said. "Hats off to Florida State for an outstanding season. I can't say enough about their fight through sets three and four. It was kind of similar to last week. I just remembered that some of these kids didn't want their season to be over last week and it was the same story today."
Hamson led the Cougars with a career-high 30 kills on a .397 clip to go along with 10 digs and six blocks. Alohi Robins-Hardy contributed team-highs in digs (15) and assists (37). Amy Boswell and Whitney Young, the top blockers in the nation, led BYU with seven blocks apiece. Alexa Gray additionally contributed double-digit kills for the Cougars with 12.
BYU (28-4) got the first point of set one with a Florida State (30-3) hitting error. The teams traded points from there until a 6-1 run put the Seminoles up 6-2, forcing an Olmstead timeout. Following the break the Cougars rallied to score a trio of points, including a pair of Boswell blocks, to bring BYU within one at 6-5. The teams traded points from there with a Gray kill tying the match again at 10 apiece. The Cougars later used a 10-2 run, capped off by a Tambre Nobles kill, to go up 22-14 in the set. Young finished off the set with a kill to give her team the 25-20 win.
BYU took an early 3-1 advantage in the second set with a Hamson kill. Florida State rallied, however, to take an 8-7 lead after a Cougar attack error. The scores went back-and-forth until BYU was able to go up by two at 14-12 after another Hamson kill. A Nobles service ace put the Cougars up by five at 18-13, but the Seminoles rallied to come back within two at 18-16 after a Katie Horton kill. BYU countered with a 5-2 run to go back up 23-18, forcing a Florida State timeout. A Nobles kill ended the set at 25-19 to give the Cougars a 2-0 lead at the break.
The Seminoles started the third set with a service error, putting BYU up 1-0 early on. The Cougars stayed ahead 5-2 but Florida State rallied to tie the set 11-all following a Seminole kill. A 3-1 BYU run put the Cougars back up at 14-12, but Florida State stayed in the set, trailing 15-14 at the media timeout. The Seminoles scored three-straight after the break, capped off by a service ace, to go up for the first time in the set 17-15, forcing a BYU timeout. Amidst a 7-2 Florida State run, the Seminoles were able to take a four-point advantage at 21-17. A Young kill forced a second set point, but it proved to be too little too late as Florida State forced a fourth set, winning the third 25-19.
The Seminoles took a 6-2 lead to start the fourth set, taking advantage of some early Cougar miscues. With Florida State up 11-5 BYU went on a 4-0 run, capped off by a Robins-Hardy ace, to bring the Cougars back within two at 11-9. The Seminoles then countered with a 5-2 rally to go back up five at 16-11, forcing BYU to take a timeout. A Hamson kill and block and blocks from Cosy Burnett and Boswell brought the Cougars back within a pair at 16-14.
With BYU back down four at 20-16, three-straight points brought the Cougars back within a point at 20-19. Florida State had a 23-20 lead, but BYU went on a 6-1 run to close out the set and match 26-24 with a Hamson kill.
The Cougars return to the University of Washington Saturday at 8:30 p.m. PST on ESPNU when they face off against No. 14 Nebraska. Links to live stats and a video feed can be found on the BYU women's volleyball schedule page.

Wind turbine blades meshing
1 Attachment(s)
Hello all.
I want to generate the mesh for horizontal wind turbine blades. the turbine has two blades. In order to reduce the computational time, I want to generate the half circular computational domain, see the pic. and use periodic boundary conditions for the two different color surfaces.
And My questions now is: If I want to be able to define the two surface boundary conditions,let's say perid_1 and perid_2. That means I have to associate edges or vertices or faces to the "real" surfaces. Now I can not generation right O grid around airfoil due to there have two block at the lowest surface, I think, and the result seems uncorrected resulting in making O grid fail.Does it come from the two blocks main in the surface. Does someone have a better idea to solve it?
It's hard to say. Is it possible to post the tin file, because if you have a half wind turbine you should have a half hub, but I cannot see it in your picture.
You have got something, but I cannot exectly see what is it.:)
|All times are GMT -4. The time now is 01:57.

Interesting thread.
I cant see how Reinhart, Dumba and Rielly dont all make the team. If they dont, those selecting the team will have dropped the ball yet again.
The weakness will be up front, but there are many draft eligible players who could make the team as there was a dearth of top end Canadian forwards from the past draft year, and the guys from the year before that, many of them look to make their nhl teams.
A back end of
Reinhart Murphy
Rielly Dumba
Harrington Ceci
looks pretty damn exciting to me.
Hopefully they go with that lineup as we have been lacking pop from the back end for several years now.

We recently had the pleasure of holding a Clickability customer event in New York. It was great meeting with customers and prospects to hear about their digital marketing initiatives and what they're looking to do in the near future. It was also a nice opportunity to showcase our new UI and maintain an open dialogue with our customers.
We were fortunate to have Santosh Soni of Interface, a customer since 2012, enthusiastically speak at the event about working with Clickability as Interface launches a new website and expands globally. Headquartered in Atlanta, Interface is the world's largest manufacturer of commercial carpet tile and leads the industry in environmental sustainability. Since its founding in 1973, Interface has grown into a billion-dollar corporation, with sales in 110 countries and manufacturing facilities on four continents.
Santosh discussed how prior to implementing Clickability, Interface wasn't using a web content management system, so publishing content was a very time-consuming process. Marketing had no control over publishing content and was forced to rely on IT to make even the smallest changes, limiting their ability to provide an engaging web experience. When Interface decided to redesign its website, its top priority was to find a WCM platform that could support the evolution of its brand and its plans for further expansion throughout Europe and Asia.
According to Santosh, Interface chose Clickability for the following capabilities:
The results: since implementing Clickability, website views, time spent on each page, and overall registrations on Interface.com have been growing, while bounce rate and cart abandonment have been decreasing. As Santosh stated, Clickability was the right solution for both IT and business.
A big thanks to all those who attended and a special thanks to Santosh – we look forward to sharing more customer success stories and hosting the next Clickability customer event in San Francisco in August!

Alastair Cook
The England skipper batted for 836 minutes to guide England to 569-8 at close on the fourth day to thwart Pakistan's pace-cum-spin attack on a flat pitch. But even on a docile pitch it needed a strong resolve from Cook as he came to the crease in the last hour of play on the second day under the pressure of a big total of 523-8 declared by Pakistan.

Homes and services for the 21st century
Our commitment is to provide high quality homes for people in housing need in communities where they are proud to live.
Setting out how we do that is our Business Plan 'Our 2020 Vision' and our three key themes; supporting aspirations, building and improving our homes and new opportunities and growth.
Central to the delivery of our Business Plan is the Accent Offer, built around three key themes; personal, modern and better. Together, these form our future vision of Accent - a thriving, successful organisation.
The Accent vision is 'Making a difference… improving homes, communities and lives' it sums up everything we stand for and everything we do, and we do not feel it needs to change. We have, however, updated our strategic objectives. We still want to achieve the same things, but we want our staff to be able to get behind them and understand how the things they do as individuals in their day to day jobs contribute to achieving the Accent vision.
Our simplified objectives are:
- Improving homes
- Improving communities and lives
- Delivering a personal, modern and better service.
More information on each objective below, or alternatively you can download the full version of our Business Plan.
- We will focus on supporting our residents if they need help to manage their tenancy, or in times of crisis.
- Our service offer will meet our residents' needs and aspirations as their circumstances change.
- We will extend the range of services our contact centre provides, improve connectivity and establish a unified platform for integrated communications.
- We will ensure our residents can do business with us at a time, and in a way, that suits them.
- We will focus on helping our residents sustain their tenancies and support those with aspirations for homeownership.
- We will prioritise the services which support our residents in tough times.
- We will invest in our specialist tenancy support and income recovery support teams to help us meet the challenges ahead.
- We are committed to delivering 1,250 new homes to rent or buy by 2021.
- We are committed to investing £150M in our homes, communities and services so our residents are proud to live in an Accent home.
- We will look to deliver new homes in the communities that need them, not simply in the areas we want to grow.
- Our target is to grow to at least 30,000 homes by 2020.
- We will actively pursue mergers and new partnerships to increase our opportunities for development and improved value for money.
- We will promote our low cost back office services as a value for money alternative to smaller organisations.
We are governed by a single Accent Board, which is supported by five regional compliance and scrutiny committees. This simplified structure has made us fit for the future and stronger together, able to make quicker and more effective decisions with less bureaucracy, and able to make even more of a difference to our services and our residents.
Like all other housing associations, we are facing risks and there are some uncertain times ahead but we have anticipated them in our business plan and we will manage them at the same time as achieving our ambition to grow and become a first-class landlord delivering excellent services, and seeking out any new opportunities that may come our way.
We are ready to face the future as one Accent - Accent Housing.

Adelaide, Jan 28: India register a historic low as they surrendered meekly to the mighty looking Australians, registering another whitewash in nine months. Just 59 minutes into Day 5, the first time they actually played on the fifth day in the four match Test series as Australia wrapped up a whitewash at Adelaide.
[Scorecard: Fourth Test; India Vs Australia, Adelaide]
Also Read: Just 636 runs from India's 'Big 3'
India surrendered the Border-Gavaskar trophy, as they were bundled out for 201 after adding just 35 runs to their over-night score of 166/6. Australia's winning moments came when Umesh Yadav was dismissed by Nathan Lyon a he found a leading edge which landed in Haddin's gloves.
Ishant Sharma (2), Wriddhiman Saha (3) Zaheer Khan (15) and Umesh yadav (1) were the last 4 to be dismissed on Day 5 while R Ashwin reamined unbeaten on 15, as India were bundled out for 201 within the first hour of play on Day 5.
Having lost the toss, India conceded a lead of 332 in the first innings, and Aussies made merry as they waited for a 500 run target to declare their second innings at 167/5. In reply to Aussies' 604/7 d, India managed to reach 272 as young Kohli played face saving knock and announced his Test arrival with his magnificent maiden ton.

Apart from him, Saha, who replaced skipper Dhoni (facing a one-match ban) played a gritty knock of 35 in the first innings, to support Kohli in achieving his maiden century. Sehwag, comapritively played well as he scored 34 and 62 in the final Test. Gambhir, Dravid, Laxman and Tendulkar disappointed again without taking much responsibilities.
Virat Kohli's ton was the only highlight of the fourth and final Test at Adelaide, while Ashwin was the pick of the bowlers, as he managed to get 5 wickets in the match.
Aussies were at their best, went for the kill from Day One, allowed themselves to break records one after the other, returned to form with style, played a magnificent innings, as Clarke and Ponting just kept the Indians at bay every time they stepped into the field.
The duo have scored 1170 runs together in the four match series, while India's Big 3 managed to score just 636. Clarke alone has scored 626 runs which fetch him the man of the series title, worthy indeed while Ponting has secured 544 runs, considering his form prior to the series, there seems to be a drastic change, he is back with a bang.
Peter Siddle emerged as the player of the match, as he finished with figures of 5/49 and 1/47 in the fourth Test. Nathan Lyon claimed 5 wickets, while Ryan Harris grabbed 4 wickets in the match.
Overall bowling performance of the Aussies has been outstanding as Hilfenhaus leads the table with 26 wickets in the series while Siddle is placed second after claiming 22 wickets.
This is definitely a phase that Indian fans nor the cricketing fraternity has expected though a few former cricketers had given a 4-0 scoreline, which actually happened in Adelaide, after successive losses in Melbourne, Sydney and Perth.
With this whitewash, India has reached a historic low, as said earlier, seems to be tough to stage a comeback especially on foreign soil as they have registered 8 successive losses in away tests since July 2011. This also suggests, India's top order which has failed in the four match series may also be under scanner as the selectors might axe a few senior players following this disastrous tour Down Under.

Last thing I need is to go over that interogation style again (another stupid guy telling me he's served in the military and applying threatening methods) and feel pressured into making a promise to stay with said girl forever. If a relationship comes to an end then it simply wasn't meant to be. It's not always the guy's fault when that happens. Doesn't mean he never loved her either.
I haven't done this since HS. The girl I'm currently seeing is a 19 year-old in college (I'm 21, also in college). Nope, haven't met the parents yet and sometimes we sneak at night in each other's house.
Most Helpful Girl
It is important. The family accepting you is important to your partner00|00|0
Thank you for your opinion. No doubt I would have to introduce myself at some point if this begins to get serious. However, it would be cool if the introduction and normal and no hassles, no none that overbearing ''every single guy is bad news'' dad threatening the guy. I'm tired of that already. Why should I have to tolerate someone that's not even going to try being polite with me and treat me like a normal human, not some ''omg, you creep, what you want with my daughter''.
you are making your own trouble. You have decided that the reception would be negative before it has even happened

Bradley Mayhew helps you experience the awe-inspiring treks and temples of the Himalayan hideaway, Bhutan
Issue 100 | December/January 2009
There's nowhere on earth quite like Bhutan. The last remaining Himalayan kingdom is a land apart, where Bhutanese men stroll the streets clad in traditional robes and knee-length Argyle socks, and local astrologers still guide people through life's major decisions.
In Druk Yul – poetically translated as the 'Land of the Thunder Dragon' – the sale of tobacco is illegal, plastic bags are outlawed, and the country's first traffic lights were scrapped after locals complained that the machines were too impersonal.
At times a trip to Bhutan feels like travel into the medieval past.
Yet this is not a land stuck in time. You'll find houses with satellite dishes, monks with mobile phones and students who can debate development models with you in perfect, pukka English. Bhutan has famously decided to chart a fine line between development and the preservation of its traditional culture, ultimately stressing Gross National Happiness over Gross National Product.
But some things are changing. The year 2008 will go down as a turning point in Bhutan's history. While the monarchy celebrated its centenary with the coronation of the young King Jigme Khesar Namgyal Wangchuck, the country's first ever elections ushered in the novel concept of democracy. As the crack in the door widens over the next few years, the pace of change and development is bound to accelerate. Now is the time to experience Bhutan.
With its strict travel and tourism laws, Bhutan is known as one of the world's most expensive countries to visit – so is it worth the money?
What you get for your tourist surcharge is a guided tour of the country's unique and dramatic dzongs (a cross between a monastery and feudal fort), pilgrimage sites, ancient Tibetan-style temples and spectacular festivals. Add on a trek through pristine forests to stunning eastern Himalayan views and you can be pretty sure this will be the trip of a lifetime.
More than this, a trip to Bhutan offers a peek at an admirably alternative vision of what's important in life, and a last bastion of pristine Tibetan-influenced culture that few other travellers have experienced. As travel becomes more homogenised, Bhutan stands out for being unique; the kind of place that, long after you've returned home, you start to think was all a dream.
If Shangri-La exists today, Bhutan is your best hope of finding it.
DURATION: 4-5 days
Paro – Kyichu Lhakhang – Taktshang Goemba – Thimphu – Paro
The flight from Kathmandu to Paro offers fine views of Mt Jhomolhari (get a seat on the left
if the plane for the best Himalayan vistas) but the excitement really builds as you approach the terraced fields around Paro.
Spend this and the next day in the Paro Valley, visiting the impressive Paro Dzong. The fort's circular former watchtower now houses the excellent National Museum, where you can take a crash course in Bhutanese culture and art. Dinner will be your first chance to tuck into the Bhutanese national dish ema datse (chillies and cheese), served with red rice and washed down with a Red Panda, Bhutan's only locally brewed beer.
On day two head for the upper Paro Valley to visit the ancient Kyichu Temple and the ruined Drukgyel Dzong, built in the 17th century to defend the country against Tibetan invaders. Dedicate the afternoon to hiking up to the dramatic Tiger's Nest (Taktshang) Monastery, rebuilt after a tragic fire in 1998. The sage Guru Rinpoche is said to have flown here on the back of a tiger. Back at your hotel, soak your weary bones in a soothing traditional Bhutanese dotsho (hot-stone bath).
The drive to Thimphu takes only a couple of hours and it's worth stopping en route at the 600-year-old private temple of Tamchhog Lhakhang. Arrange to be in Thimphu on the weekend to visit the colourful market, lined with everything from fresh betel nut and fried ferns (a local delicacy) to antique prayer wheels. Weekends are also the best time to catch some archery, Bhutan style. Traditionally robed team-mates perform a victory twirl whenever a competitor hits the mark, while the Bhutanese equivalent of cheerleaders perform traditional dances to the side.
If you are into arts and crafts don't miss the National Institute for Zorig Chusum, where you can watch students honing their skills in the13 traditional Bhutanese arts – which range from painting to papermaking. The National Textile Museum showcases Bhutan's world-class weaving tradition, a skill apparent in the kira (dresses) worn by all Bhutanese women.
Saturday night is the time to rub shoulders with hip young Bhutanese in one of the city's bars but don't stay out too late; flights out of Paro leave early in the morning, necessitating a pre-dawn start from Thimphu.
DURATION: 6 days
Thimphu – Dochu La – Punakha – Phobjikha Valley – Trongsa – Bumthang Valley
If you can afford more time in Bhutan, add this six-day itinerary through central Bhutan onto the previous one for an in-depth 11-day trip. Heading east from Thimphu, the one-and-a-half-lane national highway climbs to the Dochu La pass (3,140m), covered with hundreds of stupas, prayer flags and rhododendron trees. If you're here between October and February (when the days are most likely to be clear) consider heading up to Dochu La at dawn for Himalayan views that stretch all the way to Tibet.
A popular stop on the far side of the pass is Chimi Lhakhang, the monastery dedicated to Bhutan's ribald saint, Lama Drukpa Kunley, who sprinkled the 'crazy wisdom' of his Buddhist teachings with liberal amounts of sex and debauchery. The flying phalluses you see painted on thresholds across Bhutan are a symbol of both fertility and the saint.
A short drive north of the temple is Punakha Dzong, Bhutan's most beautiful, which commands an impressive location at the junction of the Mo (Mother) and Pho (Father) rivers. Continuing east through deep valleys and pristine forests, it's worth detouring south for an overnight in the Phobjikha Valley. The valley offers great scope for walks to local villages and you can spot black-necked cranes here between October and March.
From Phobjikha you cross the Black Mountainsvia the Pele La (3,420m) and pass from western to central Bhutan. Tourists are far fewer here. Stop for a circumambulation of the charming Nepali-style Chendebji Chorten stupa and lunch at the crossroads town of Trongsa, home to a dramatic dzong and the excellent new Ta Dzong Museum. From here it's a 2.5-hour drive over the Yotong La (3,425m), past charming monasteries into the Bumthang Valley.
Factor in two days for Bumthang. For the first day concentrate on the Chokhor Valley, around Jakar, visiting the Jampey Lhakhang, one of Bhutan's oldest chapels, and joining the pilgrims as they 'test their sin' on a circuit of Kurjey Lhakhang, where the saint Guru Rinpoche battled demons and left his body print.
On the second day, head out to the miracle lake of Membartsho, another popular pilgrimage site, and then add on a 45-minute walk to the Ogyen Chholing Palace, a restored country manor that offers insights into the life of Bhutan's privileged nobility. From Bumthang, it's a two-day drive back to Paro, overnighting en route in Wangdue Phodrang.
Bhutan boasts a pristine Himalayan environment of great biodiversity, ranging from steaming jungle to glacial peaks. Low population density and the Buddhist aversion to taking life have given wildlife the space it needs to thrive.
The high mountains are home to yak, snow leopard, blue sheep and musk deer, while the temperate forests shelter langur, red panda and incredible rhododendron forests. There are even a few rhino, elephant and tiger in the Royal Manas National Park, bordering Assam.
Botanists should look out for the 1m-high blue poppy, Bhutan's national flower. The national animal is the takin, said to have been created from the head of a goat and the body of a cow. Far more elusive is the migoi, the Bhutanese yeti, for whom the far eastern Sakten Wildlife Sanctuary was allegedly created in 2002.
Apart from its pristine natural environment, Bhutan is also imbued with a uniquely spiritual landscape. To the Bhutanese, their land is alive with spiritual 'power places': mountain tops, lakes, passes and river junctions all hide spirits that need to be pacified and placated. Follow a band of pilgrims and they will point out hand and body prints left in boulders by lamas, and rocks lined with the marks of flying tigers or the staffs of saints. Caves form the lairs of snake demons and lakes hide sacred texts left behind by enlightened treasure-finders.
Bhutan is also covered in man-made marks of religious devotion. Chorten (stone monuments) and kani (gateway stupas) mark the entrances to villages, alongside long walls of prayer stones carved with the Buddhist mantra 'Om mani padme hum'.
Prayer flags flutter in all corners of the kingdom, attached to vertical wooden poles in contrast to the long strings found in Tibet. It's this harmonious blending of religion and landscape that makes the Himalaya such a remarkable place.
The Tiger's Nest (Taktshang Goemba) Hike up to Bhutan's most famous monastery and pilgrimage site, clinging to the cliffs high above the Paro Valley
Kyichu Lhakhang, Upper Paro Valley 1,300-year-old Tibetan-style temple, built to subdue a troublesome demoness and packed with religious treasures
Paro Tsechu Spectacular costumes, masked monk dances and unrivalled photo opportunities characterise this wildly popular springtime festival
Thimphu Browse the weekend market, take in some archery, touch a takin (the national animal) and explore Bhutan's only 'city'
Punakha Dzong, Western Bhutan The country's former winter capital and its most beautiful dzong. Visit in spring to see the purple jacaranda flowers in bloom
Bumthang Valley Leave the car behind and hike from monastery to monastery in this charming valley of saints, miracles and pilgrims
Trekking Follow a train of yaks though ancient forests to high-altitude pastures and chat with the locals over superb Himalayan views (see p120-121 for ideas)
Arranging a trip to Bhutan Bhutan tightly controls tourism, adopting a philosophy of low volume, high value. While this means there's little flexibility in the price you pay, most people don't realise that you can still create your own personal itinerary, within certain limits.
The rules All foreign tourists need to have their trip to Bhutan pre-planned, prepaid and accompanied by a local guide. You can plan your own itinerary or let your agency suggest one for you, do a wilderness trek or stay in the towns – the costs will be the same, raised in 2009 to $250 per person per day in the high season ($200 low season). While this certainly isn't cheap, it does include almost everything – all transport (probably a private car), food, accommodation, guides, trekking staff and entry fees – so it's actually not a bad deal.
Booking in the UK Joining a group tour departure from the UK keeps the logistics simple. Trips range from hardcore treks to cultural tours, or consider a grand pan-Himalayan tour that tacks a trip to Bhutan onto the highlights of Tibet or Sikkim. Many operators also offer tailormade itineraries if you want more say over your route/travel companions.
Booking locally You must have your Bhutan trip booked before arrival but, if you don't mind investing some time playing email ping pong with a Bhutanese agent and arranging fiddly international bank transfers, then customised itineraries can be created for you by local operators. Groups smaller than three pay a premium of US$30 (two people) or US$40 (solo traveller) per person per day, but there's no reason why you can't organise your own private Bhutan tour for much the same cost as an organised group tour. Choose a Bhutanese local travel agent from the government's approved list (see www.tourism.gov.bt), email them an itinerary and off you go.
Once you and your Bhutanese agent have agreed the itinerary and price, you need to wire the cost of your trip to the Bhutan National Bank. With this receipt, the agent will arrange visa confirmation and book your flight ticket into Bhutan. This will generally be issued at the Druk Air office in the city you fly from, normally Kathmandu or Delhi.
The tourist experience Tours in Bhutan are generally very comfortable and hotel accommodation is good. You'll be accompanied by a guide most of the time, which can be very useful for learning about Bhutanese culture. Your hotel will be full of foreign tourists rather than Bhutanese, so some travellers miss the local interaction they get from individual travel.
Most tours involve a lot of car travel, so it's a good idea to mix a couple of short hikes in to your itinerary to get a sense of the country on foot. Foreigners are treated with great respect in Bhutan.
Visas Visas are only issued on arrival at Paro airport or at the Phuentsholing overland border crossing with India. Your Bhutanese agent will apply for your visa once you've paid for your tour. Without this visa clearance you won't be able to book an air ticket into Bhutan.
When to go Autumn (Sep-Nov) is the most popular time to visit for clear mountain views, while spring (April) brings spectacular rhododendron blooms. Monsoon rains hit hard in summer (June-Sep). Try to time your trip with one of the many festivals such as the Paro Tsechu in March/April or the Thimphu Tsechu in September/October.
Getting there The Bhutanese national carrier Druk Air (www.drukair.com.bt) flies to Paro from Kathmandu, Delhi, Kolkata, Bihar, Dacca and Bangkok. It is also possible to cross overland from India's Assam province at Phuentsholing.
Getting around Your agent will provide a car or minibus as part of your tour. There are no domestic flights or railway lines in Bhutan.
Cost of travel From 2009, travel in Bhutan is fixed at US$250 dollars per person, per day, all included. Off-season travel in monsoonal July and August is US$200 per day, though weather-wise this isn't the best time to visit. Discounts are also offered for trips longer than ten/20 nights (10/20% off), young children (under sixes go free), children aged 6-12 (50% off) and students under 25 (25% off).
Health & safety Recommended vaccinations include hepatitis A, polio and typhoid. Trekkers should take precautions to avoid AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness) – acclimatise to the altitude slowly, stay well hydrated, eat high-carb meals and avoid alcohol. Drink only purified water. Bhutan is probably the safest country in Asia.

- 300% Increase in Turnover
By the mid-2011/2012 Financial Year, Dick Smith Foods had lost about $240,000 and Dick Smith was considering closing the company. Turnover at retail level of our Australian grown and made foods had dropped to $8 million per annum.
However, due to public reaction and support, Dick decided to revitalise the company and keep it going.
Over $700,000 being spent on a special magazine promoting the food company, together with other advertising in newspapers and on radio, has turned the company around. By the end of the 2011/2012 Financial Year, the company had made a small profit and is now returning to making major donations and providing sponsorships. So far, Dick Smith Foods has given over $4.7 million to worthy causes and Dick is hoping this will reach $5 million in the very near future.
Following is a copy of the new article on the Dick Smith Foods website which tells the story of this amazing turnaround.
Thanks, everyone, for your support – especially media commentators around Australia who really know the importance of food security and supporting the 'home team'.
For further information contact Dick Smith on 02-9450 0600,
mobile 0408 640 221 or email [email protected]
Donations and Sponsorships
Thanks for everyone's support and the great performance of our Magazine of Forbidden Ideas. It looks as if we have turned a corner and soon we will be able to start giving sponsorships and donations again.
As you can see from the article below entitled, "Presently On Hold Due to No Money Available" (which was previously placed on this website), the turnover of Dick Smith Foods had dropped from $80 million to about $8 million and we simply had no profits to give away. In fact, two-thirds of the way through the last financial year, it looked as if we were going to lose about $240,000.
However, the news now is fantastic – there has been an amazing turnaround with support from the public. By the end of the financial year we didn't lose any money at all. In fact, we made a small profit of $10,000. After paying 30% tax on this (about $3,000) we have donated the balance of $7,000 to the Salvation Army to assist in the ongoing maintenance for three houses we purchased for the Salvos for accommodation for people in need.
What is even more incredible is that we were able to give away about $27,000 in donations and sponsorships last year – yes, well down on our record years when we were giving away many hundreds of thousands of dollars, but still worthwhile. We still have a long way to go as we are spending nearly all of our money on marketing.
Now that more than three million copies of the magazine have been distributed we are increasing our advertising with a permanent full-page ad in Women's Weekly magazine and also some short television commercials.
We will be able to make donations again and to help with sponsorships, but please note: all requests must be received through Australia Post to the address below. Please understand every request for assistance or sponsorship will be considered, but we can only help about 1% of the tremendous number that come in and we will not be able to reply to every letter. If we were to put on extra staff to reply to every request it will mean we will have to spend most of the sponsorship money on paying for staff to write letters!
Personally I would like to thank Australians around the country for their tremendous support in assisting Dick Smith Foods back to a better financial footing. I was going to close down the company when the turnover dropped so dramatically, but it looks as if we may be able to become a long-term, viable business supporting Aussie farmers and putting money into worthwhile causes.
Thanks again for your support.

Kake Community Forest
SEAWEAD has partnered with SEACC to put together a Community Forest Project for Kake. This project is based on a collaborative stewardship model and this webpage has been created to provide a central location for resource materials that support this effort. Here is an excerpt from the summary:
For this community forest project SEAWEAD again partnered with SEACC to conduct field surveys, gather reference material and provide tools for the collaborative stewardship of National Forest and Native Corporation lands immediately accessible to the community of Kake, Alaska herinafter referred to as The Kake Community Forest (KCF). Our task::
- Learn about Kake, what forest-related projects residents would like, the kinds of forest related jobs they would like, the community's current capacity for conducting forest work, and their vision for long-term management of their community forest;
- Assess the condition of the lands within the Kake Community Forest.
- Identify areas where wildlife habitat restoration and enhancement activities could be efficiently blended with opportunities for customary and traditional uses, sustainable logging, recreation development and the cultivation and harvest of non-timber forest products.
- Describe tools for community-based collaborative stewardship including: stewardship contracts and agreements, MOUs, and place-based legislation.
- Utilize these tools to foster future stewardship activities in the Kake Community Forest that are thoroughly community-based and collaborative, are suited to the community's capacity for doing the work, to increase capacity where desired and reflect the long-term vision the residents have for their community forest.

I guess this is my first post on this blog. Well, here goes.
Today has been hard. Someone posted on my wiki, Slenderpasta Wiki, a message on the front page. It read 'this topic is gay'. Whoever wrote this said that the topic was gay, and it was mainly to the founder. So, as I'm the founder of Slenderpasta, it has been noted that I should just give up on the whole Slenderman creepypasta idea. Now, this is for all of you who bother reading this: what should I do with the wiki? Should I just carry on with it, even though no-one ever uses it? Or should I just abandon this entire project? Please, post a comment on this blog post, saying what I should do.
Thank you for reading this,
