Best Kilimanjaro Stories
The Shadow of Kilimanjaro: On Foot Across East Africa by Rick Ridgeway
Definitely our favourite book about Kilimanjaro and the wild Tanzanian landscape. If we had to pick one book for you to read it would be The Shadow of Kilimanjaro. Written by explorer extraordinaire, Rick Ridgeway (first climber to reach the summit of K2 without bottled oxygen), the book will leave you so inspired to get to Africa and conquer Kili.
Zombies on Kilimanjaro: A Father/Son Journey Above the Clouds by Tim Ward
An intensely personal journey of a father (Tim Ward) and his 20 year old sons expedition up the slopes of Kilimanjaro. During the climb their relationship develops a touching authenticity as topics of fatherhood, divorce and kept secrets are dealt with. We thoroughly enjoyed this book and know you will too. Highly recommended!
Kilimanjaro Diaries: Or, How I Spent a Week Dreaming of Toilets, Drinking Crappy Water, and Making Bad Jokes While Having the Time of My Life by Eva Melusine Thieme
Mother, homekeeper and blogger, Eva Melusine, shares her funny and heart-warming story of climbing Kilimanjaro. If the reviews on Amazon are anything to go by, this book gets two thumbs up for it's honest and entertaining dialog that is scattered with insightful nuggets of what to expect when climbing Africa's highest mountain.
In My Wildest Dreams: A Woman's Humorous Perspective of her Mt. Kilimanjaro Experience by Sue Freeman
We haven't read this book but the reviews on Amazon are great. Here's one we like: "I felt like I was on the journey with Sue. The book might be short & a quick read, but it holds so much valuable information & delivered with such a keen sense of humor. It encourages you to meet your next challenge with gusto & wit." Most of the reviews are admittedly from ladies so perhaps the book is best read by the finer sex.
Kilimanjaro and Beyond (A Life-Changing Journey) by Barry Finlay and Chris Finlay
Another epic father and son tale of climbing Kilimanjaro. This time both father and son are on a journey to raise funds for children in Africa whilst conquering the slopes of Kibo. The story that unfolds is one of true determination to make personal dreams and other people's dreams come true.
Kissing Kilimanjaro: Leaving It All on Top of Africa by Daniel Dorr
Here is a Amazon review: "I was in the mood for a good outdoor adventure book that was not far out fiction when someone suggested this book to me. I was not disappointed. The story is well written, the characters were so real they reminded me of several people I know. The descriptions of the scenery were explicit and moving and the occasional humor throughout made this book a great read. The only problem is that now I have to find some money to take my own trip up Kilimanjaro!:-)"
Kilimanjaro Via the Marangu Route: Tourist Route My Ass by Phil Gray
This book caught our eyes as many of the tour operators punt the Marangu Route as the 'Tourist Route'. Of course there is no such thing and at the end of the day getting your ass up Kili is no easy feat. Described as toilet humour in Amazon we suspect this book is perfect for those who want a really quick read and some fun laughs.
A Table on Kilimanjaro by Janice Coy
Here is what Amazon has to say:
"A Table on Kilimanjaro is a coming of age story about the nature of success, the realization that every mountain can't be conquered and every person, even those closest to us, can be a stranger."
Kilimanjaro Uncovered: An Alternative Path to Bliss by Alexandra Tanbai
A fun, informative and inspiring story that follows Alex's journey to the summit of Kilimanjaro on the little known and under appreciated Northern Circuit. Although not a guide, Kilimanjaro Uncovered is full of brilliant little nuggets of information that will help you prepare for the Roof of Africa!

Vegetarian Tamales
READY IN: 45mins
Recipe by MC Baker
These tamales are a great base recipe that can actually be used with a meat filling instead, but this jalapeno, cheese and tomato filling is really amazing.
Top Review by confectionist
Amazing! I make these in batches of 3 so I can freeze them and whip them out when I don't feel like cooking. They are so delicious that I won't even eat tamales in restaraunts anymore! I do my own filling of Black olives, green chiles, black beans, cheddar, cilantro and corn...mmmmm!
See Discussion:10 Reviews 1 Tweak
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 cups masa corn flour
- 1⁄2 cup butter, cubed
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 pinch sugar
- 1⁄2 cup broth
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 1⁄2 cups corn (fresh or thawed frozen will work)
- 1 1⁄2 cups cheddar cheese (mexican cheese is better, reserve about half for filling)
- 4 ounces roasted chilies (fresh roasted skinless peppers work too)
- 2 tomatoes, deseeded, pealed and sliced (can immerse in boiling water for 20 seconds, and then ice water to loosen skins)
- parchment paper or corn husk
Directions See How It's Made
- In a food processor blend corn and cheese until corn is in nearly a meal consistency.
- Add butter, Masa flour, salt, sugar, pepper and baking powder and process until the mixture is loosely mixed.
- Add broth and mix until just smooth.
- Place about 2 tbsp of mixture into soaked corn husk or parchment paper.
- Fill with some cheese, slices of roasted chili pepper and tomatoes.
- Close parchment paper or corn husk around filling, trying to cover filling with Masa flour mixture. If you have trouble closing or have too much filling try using less in your subsequent tamales.

This article by EDE News Staff appeared on Eat Drink Explore on January 25, 2013.
A popular cereal in Canada is slowly making its name—and an unusual one at that—known within the United States. Holy Crap cereal is unique beyond its moniker, with a blend of ingredients not seen on most American grocery chain shelves.
Displaying and offering samples of "the world's most amazing breakfast cereal" at the recent Winter Fancy Foods Show in San Francisco, Holy Crap representatives introduced the crowd to the cereal's tapioca-like textured combination of chia seeds, hemp hearts, and buckwheat.
There are also bits of fruit in the mixture including cranberries, raisins, and apple. A version of the product, minus the fruit bits, is called Skinny B. As you can see, the company's founders have a sense of humor.
The cereal is extremely condensed in its packaged form, so the samples offered to the San Francisco food show attendees were pre-soaked, as is suggested by the company on the product pouch. "The chia does expand nine to eleven times," said Lyle Hartley, the U.S. spokesperson for HapiFoods Group Inc. "A lot of people do put it with their yogurts or a lot also do it with some kind of smoothie."
If accepted as a product to sell by some of the nation's largest chains, Holy Crap could instantly become a big seller among the growing health-conscious public. The packaging hits on several top nutrition trends in the U.S., as the cereal is gluten-free, lactose-free, vegan, kosher, and contains 100 percent organic ingredients.
The company is based in British Columbia and got a big boost when its founders appeared on a CBC program called Dragons' Den—the Canadian version of ABC's Shark Tank. Hartley says Holy Crap cereal still holds the title as being the product quickest to gain a business offer in Dragons' Den's eight year run. Currently the cereal is under review by Whole Foods Markets here in the U.S., according to Hartley.

Something sinister is going on in the neonatal intensive care unit of a prominent Boston hospital. When Joyce Lattimer begins caring for the infants there, she discovers that someone is murdering them. She and her friend, Nancy, uncover evidence showing that Martha Ryan is probably responsible for the deaths of at least 20 infants. The hospital administrators refuse to believe that one of their own would do such a horrible thing and their solution is to upgrade the NICU to all RNs which removes Martha, who is an LPN, from the unit. Martha is moved to the pediatric unit where she continues to create problems. Dissatisfied with their solution, Joyce continues to probe for the truth only to begin receiving threats to her family and friends.Trying to protect those she loves and the children at the hospital becomes her obsession and her downfall.

Murder by Proxy
- Deedra
I didn't see that one coming
I would recommend this book. Although slow to start, the story gained momentum and grew in suspense. I was on the edge of my seat until the end. The author keeps us guessing who the killer is throughout the book. I didn't know from one chapter to the next if she was going to introduce another suspect.
No. This was my first by her.
I loved the growing romance between Joyce and James. It was sweet and proper. We don't see that too often anymore.
I loved the overall story, and the compassion Joyce shows toward her patients, and her determination to stop the killer. This is my second book by Sandra Olson I've listened to, and while I felt it could have a stronger start, the second half of the book captured me. I'm glad I continued listening.

FTM Hammer Crusher/Hammer Crusher/The Price Of Hammer Crusher
Application of hammer crusher machine
The hammer crusher machine can process the raw material with medium hardness in industries like mining, cement, coal, metallurgy, construction material and road pavement, etc. Take the limestone as an example, our hammer mill crusher can crush the limestone with diameter about 1m into finished product with diameter about 20mm.
Applied materials: coal, granite, basalt, limestone, pebble, cement clinker, quartz stone, iron ore and bauxite, etc.
Let's take one example. A cement enterprise only used the hammer crusher to process the limestone. The preliminary crushing ratio was 6.3 while the final crushing ratio was 3.8. Due to the reasons like small distance between grates, poor quality of hammer head and insufficient crushing ability, the final effects were very poor.
To solve this problem, FTM Crusher Company suggests the owner of this enterprise to use the jaw crusher to make the coarse crushing before using the hammer crusher. Known as the NO.1 brand of hammer mill crusher, FTM Crusher Company can offer different plans for you to choose.
Of course, the best one should be based on the properties of raw materials, working site and desired output. Interested in the price of hammer mill crusher? By leaving messages on website, you can get the discounts that FTM Crusher Company prepares.

General praises state of ceasefire
Urges both sides to remain steadfast in 'mutual quest for peace'
ucanews.com reporter, Manila
June 27, 2012
The head of the government's cessation of hostilities committee in Mindanao said he is satisfied with the way the ceasefire with Moro rebels is holding. "I am happy to note that each time we meet and work, we continue to move forward to a more conducive, more comfortable and healthy working relationship," said Brigadier General Gilberto Jose Roa. Roa called on the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) and the International Monitoring Team (IMT) during a meeting in Davao City yesterday "to continue giving your best without let-up in our mutual quest for peace." "This spirit and the professional handling of issues despite all challenges have allowed the ceasefire to hold and created an atmosphere conducive for the peace process to proceed unhindered," said Major General Dato' Abul Rahim Bin Mohd Yussuf, the Malaysian head of the IMT. Yussuf challenged members of the Coordinating Committee on the Cessation of Hostilities (CCCH), a mechanism created in 2003 to implement the ceasefire deal, "to confront effectively" common challenges to ensure that the ceasefire holds. "We in the ceasefire mechanism are called upon to confront these forces that corrode the possibility of a lasting ceasefire," he said. Yussuf identified "ignorance, perceptions, personal agenda and greed" of people in the area among the challenges the committee is facing. Lawyer Marvic Leonen, head of the government peace panel, said he appreciates the joint ceasefire committee's "heroic acts of maintaining the peace despite the many vulnerabilities that present themselves on the ground." Most prominent among these vulnerabilities are "ridos," or clan disputes among Moro families that most of the time leads to shooting wars. "I ask that we all build on this trust. Our peoples deserve just peace. Let us give them what they deserve," Leonen said. More than 120,000 people have already died since the Moro secession attempts started in 1970. The government signed a peace agreement with the Moro National Liberation Front in 1996 and later began separate talks with the MILF. The peace talks have collapsed and resumed frequently in the past 14 years. The present ceasefire, signed in 2003, has held despite the ambush killing by MILF rebels of 19 government soldiers in Basilan province last year. Leonen said the current ceasefire mechanisms will become more relevant once an agreement is signed. While the CCCH is mandated to monitor the implementation of the Agreement on the Cessation of Hostilities and to settle complaints on ceasefire violations, the Malaysian-led IMT, established in 2004, aims to monitor the security, civilian protection, humanitarian, rehabilitation, socio-economic and development aspects of the peace process. The IMT comprises contingents from Malaysia, Brunei, Japan, Norway and the European Union. Related reports MILF suspends ceasefire violators MILF flags possible peace deal

(_merin sa haryalye alasse nó vanyalye Ambarello_ 'I hope that you have
happiness before you pass from the world') is authentic? And even if it is,
do we know that it means what it's purported to mean?
In a message to Elfling dated 24 April 1999 David Salo tentatively dated
the "_merin_" sentence to the period 1954-1959. In that same period,
Tolkien was working on _The Athrabeth_, in which Finrod says, on the
subject of Elvish and Human forms of mortality:
"If we are indeed the _Eruhin_, the children of the One, then He will not
suffer Himself to be deprived of His own, not by any Enemy, not even by
ourselves. This is the last foundation of _Estel_, which we keep even when
we contemplate the End: of all His designs the issue must be for His
Children's joy." (X:321)
So based on internal evidence, the interpretation 'I hope that you have
happiness after you pass from the world' is as reasonable as (albeit hardly
any more tactful than) the one usually given.

As Carl already mentioned, _apa_ in _apacenye_ is hardly spatial. It
does not mean "what I see [spatially] in front of me" but what I see in
times ahead. I think there is no doubt it is temporal. So the use in
Quenya is actually straight forward. _apa_ refers to events that take
place in the future as related to the point of reference. The events
that will lead to the justification of the name of "foresight" lie in
the future at the time the name is given. Also, the birth of Men lies
in the future at the moment of reference, (scil. the birth of the

- I had forgotten that an interesting text by Tolkien discussing just
this problem has been published, in Verlyn Flieger's fascinating book,
_A Question of Time: J.R.R. Tolkien's Road to _Faërie_ (Kent State,
1997; and recently available in trade paperback, see Amazon.com). The
text is given on pp. 69-70. Some excerpts:
"Our language is confused using _after_ and _before_ both (in certain
circumstances) of the _future_. We sometimes think and speak of the
future as what lies before us, we look ahead, are provident,
forward-looking, yet are ancestors preceded us and are our
fore-fathers; and any event in time is _before_ one that is later. We
speak as if events and a succession of human lives were an endless
column moving forward into the unknown.... As far as a single
experiencing mind goes, it seems a most natural transference of spatial
to linear language to say that the past is _behind_ it and that it
_advances_ forwards into the future, that later events are _before_ or
in _front_ of earlier ones.
"In Elvish sentiment the _future_ was not one of hope or desire, but a
decay and retrogression from former bliss and power.... Their
position, as of latter day sentiment, was one of exiles driven forward
(against their will) who were in mind or actual posture ever looking
"But in _actual language_ time and place had distinct expressions."
And there Tolkien's text breaks off.

I got off work at let's say 11pm. Because I'm broke I do not own a car, so I was stuck with the task of walking home -which to be honest isn't as bad as you might think. I find that the night time can be peaceful because you don't have to deal with people's obnoxious scurrying. I'm sorry, I'm getting ahead of myself. My name's Tyler Chevnoski, I'm 18 and I live in downtown Chicago with my friend Isaac, who at the moment is unemployed but is still the most optimistic person I know.
Anyways tonight was... different, to say the least. It seemed like I was the only one in the city. There wasn't anyone outside. Usually I'd run into a couple of stoners or some guy who just got lucky at the bar. I quickly rationalized the occasion as everyone was probably in their homes sleeping or doing whatever random people do late at night. I finally got to the door of my flat... our flat, and came to the realization that I did not have the key on me.
"Damn," I said, not caring if people heard or not.
Isaac wasn't going to be home for another hour and a half due to him being at some church event. I decided to go down to the convenience store a few blocks from our flat. I guess I hadn't realized how hungry I was until I got home. I took the elevator down and exited the building, trying not to make eye contact with the obscure statue that protruded from the sidewalk. I had always gotten a strange vibe from that thing so I naturally just kept my head down as I walked passed it.
I was about halfway there when I got the strange feeling that someone was watching me. I let it pass as it was probably just my imagination, although the feeling persisted. I made it to the store and saw my old friend Amon. He was sleeping steadily behind the counter, and so as any normal friend would do I banged on the counter. I scared him half to death, which probably wasn't the best idea because he always kept a loaded shotgun behind the counter. He pointed the loaded gun at me for a few seconds while his eyes adjusted. Realizing it was me he put the gun away.
"Why the hell would you do that!" he yelled in his Middle Eastern accent I've grown so accustomed to.
"Just making a little fun is all. Why are you still here?" I asked, changing the conversation.
"Because the new guy I hired hasn't shown up and I can't close the shop."
"Why don't you fire him?"
"Because I can't work both day and night in this hell hole."
I rolled my eyes and walked to the back to grab a beer and a bag of Cheddar Fries. When I got up to the counter to check out, the feeling of being watched had come back but it was stronger this time; I shook it off and proceeded. Looking down to retrieve my wallet, I noticed a shadow on the floor behind me. I quickly turned around to find a girl about 16 or 17 standing behind me. I guess I hadn't noticed her when I walked in. She was carrying her purse in one hand and a beer in the other. I guess she knew that Amon didn't card people.
"Sorry," she said, "I didn't mean to startle you." She laughed a bit, I'm guessing because I had had a scared look on my face.
"It's fine. You're the first person to scare me in a long time so kudos to you," I said, smiling now.
I introduced myself and she did the same.
Her name was Beverly... I think that's what she said at least; she had an accent I had never heard before. She had dark brown hair and almond colored skin, her eyes were a deep mixture of blue and green and she seemed to be really shy because she kept glancing over my shoulder.
Remembering why I was there I turned back around only to find that Amon wasn't there. I called out for him only to be greeted by the faint sound of the wind blowing. I called out again:
"Amon, where are you? I need to get home!"
Still nothing. I decided to just leave the money on the counter and go home. Turning back to Beverly, I gave her my number and said my goodbyes. She smiled and said she'd text me.
When I got home the door was open and I could hear Isaac and someone else in the room talking. I waited by the door and listened in on their conversation
Isaac: "So how am I supposed to tell him?" Person: "Tell him the truth, hand him the file I sent you." Isaac: " He's not gonna take it very well." Person "Doesn't matter, he needs to know."
My curiosity got the best of me and I walked in. Isaac was sitting at the table but there was no one else in the room.
"Who were you talking to?" I asked
He handed me a file and told me that I might want to sit down. Hesitantly I opened the file to see a picture of a young girl about 13-14. It was my sister, Jenny Chevnoski. I read the top of the file "Chicago State Mental Institution." I couldn't believe what I was reading; my sister, in a mental institution? I sat sat down and stared blankly into the vanilla colored file. When I was finally able to speak I asked Isaac:
"Where did you get this?"
"It was in our P.O. box when I got home."
Just when I was about to ask another question the voice I heard earlier spoke up. Isaac was on a Skype call with what looked like some kind of doctor. He identified himself as Samuel Hollowell, a doctor at the Chicago State Mental Institution. He informed me that Jenny was admitted to the hospital on May 13, 2015 due to symptoms of schizophrenia and on multiple counts of mentally induced homicides. I sat back not wanting to believe it. My sister, the same girl who volunteered at animal shelters. The same girl who cried for two hours because her fish died.
"Why are you telling me all this?" I asked hesitantly
"Because you should know that Jenny escaped a few days ago and is responsible for the deaths of many staff personnel. We believe she might try and contact you, which is why I found it urgent that I inform you."
Isaac who was sitting silently the whole time spoke up:
"How would she know where he lives?"
"When she was admitted to the hospital, emergency information was put in the file with her profile. Your name and address came up when we couldn't contact your mum. However, what we have is a copy of the emergency info; Jenny took the original file."
The discussion came to a halt when the doctor was being called upon to help with a disobedient patient, before he left he gave us a piece of advice:
"If she should find you, restrain her and call us at 512-958-3248. I don't think she's much of a threat to her family, but just in case you might want to carry around a weapon."
The Skype call ended and a dreadful silence followed. No one wanted to say anything. That was the problem. We didn't know what to say.
Finally I broke the silence and told Isaac that I needed to get some sleep.
That night wasn't an easy one to sleep through, I was constantly bombarded with nightmares and the occasional night-terror, which I had thought I had grown out of. Finally at around 4am I was able to get a little sleep - that is until my alarm clock went off at 8am. Exhausted, I got out of bed and put on a fresh change of clothes. I grabbed my skateboard and headed down the elevator.
When I exited the building I decided that I would stop by Amon's Shop just to see if he was okay. I skated the few blocks to the store and when I got there I was stunned to see that the money that I had left on the counter was still there.
"Amon, are you there?"
An unpleasant silence responded.
I was about to call out again when I got a phone call from a undisclosed number. I answered and heard what I thought was a faint whisper. The whispers grew louder and louder until audible words were clearly heard.
"He's dead... he's dead, I killed him and now..."
"Who are..."
I dropped the phone and ran to the back of the store, only to find my friend Amon hanging upside down with a bloodied bag over his head. His clothes where torn and I could see that something had been written on his back.
"Don't forget me" was burnt onto his back.
The room started to spin and I felt sick to my stomach. I vomited, and needless to say, blacked out.
I awoke in a dimly-lit room no bigger than a standard-sized closet. The sound of metal chains being pulled on filled the room. Out of the corner of my eye I could see the dark silhouette of a man against the wall. I could just barely make out his face.
"I-Isaac," I whispered
The figure lifted his face. It made a weird grunting noise and put its head back down. I pulled on my chains a little bit trying to get close enough to see the figure.
It was Isaac. He lifted his head again and I could see what they had done to him. Half the skin on his face was torn off and his tongue was cut off.
Just when I was about to blackout again a jolt of electricity ran up my spine, keeping me from falling away. The door to my cell came open, and I could make out two figures- one rather tall, about my height, and the other short. They both wore masks, the one wearing a black mask with spikes all around it and the short wearing a white mask with a red circle in the middle of the forehead.
They took Isaac off the wall and placed him on a table in the middle of the room.
I kicked and thrashed but to no avail. The tall one took out a knife and before I could even let out so much as a whimper, they cut his throat, exposing the soft tissue under his jugular. The smaller pulled out a box from under the table and filled it with the blood that was now streaming out of Isaac.
I sat there in shock not believing what I had just witnessed. With the bucket full of the blood, the smaller one poured the crimson liquid over my head and drew a circle with black paint on my forehead. They both stopped and stared at me. The small one was the first to speak.
"You forgot me, Tyler."
The taller one left the room though I suspected she'd be back soon.
"How could you forget me, Tyler?"
"How do you know my name?" I screamed
"So naive, how could you not recognize the same voice as your sister?"
She tore off her mask, exposing the face of my younger sister Jenny. Something about her face seemed... different. The center of her forehead had a red and black circle that almost seemed like it was... branded on to her skin.
"I see you noticed the symbol on my forehead," she said with a twisted smile only a psychopath could pull off.
"I burnt the symbol into my head so that I'd never forget what they did to me at the hospital, and now you're going to have one just... like... me."
As she said that, the tall one walked back in with a circle branding iron and a box of matches. She struck one of the matches and stopped, studying my face for a few seconds. She turned away and dropped the match onto Isaac. His body immediately went up in flames and she rested the branding iron on him to heat up.
The smell was almost enough to knock me out again, but Jenny had no trouble in keeping me awake with the jolts of electricity running down my back every so often.
"Who are you?" I yelled at the taller one.
She ignored me and started to pour gas on Isaac to keep the flame going, his body now withering to ash.
"I said, 'Who are you?'"
"She can't speak, Tyler; I cut out her tongue. Can you please take off your mask so Tyler can see your face?"
The figure nodded and took off the mask.
It was Beverly. Her face was the same, everything about her was the same except... something seemed a bit off. She didn't seem to have the same demeanor as the girl in the store.
"What have I ever done to you?" I screamed.
"It's not what you did; it's what our father did to her." I guess she noticed the confused look on my face.
"SO, so ignorant, how could you forget what he did to her parents?"
"I always assumed he died in a car accident."
"Yeah, that's what mom told us; but it's not true. The bastard raped and killed both her parents!"
Beverly picked up the branding iron and came towards me. I tried to turn my head but Jenny kept it straight. The Iron touched my forehead, and I let out a scream I have never been able to duplicate again. For what seemed like hours the iron stayed on my forehead. Finally Beverly took it off and dropped the iron. Both of them left the room.
"I'll kill you both!" I yelled
I noticed that Beverly let the iron on the ground and reached for it. I grabbed it with both my feet and hoisted it up to my hands. I burnt the chains off my hand and ran out the door. In the next room over was a phone. I quickly called 911 but before I could tell them my location the line went dead.
I turned around to see Jenny and Beverly standing behind me. Jenny had the iron in her hand and Beverly had a kitchen knife in hers. Beverly was the first to come at me. I dodged her strike, the blade missing my head by inches. Before she could turn around I grabbed the knife out of her hand and stabbed her in the back. She crumpled to the floor. Jenny was the second to come at me with the iron. She swung the iron as hard as she could. I dodged it. I guess she could hear the police sirens outside because she dropped the iron and ran off. I chased her through a series of tunnels and doors and finally caught her. I threw her on the ground and stabbed her right in the center of her forehead. Just then the police stomped down the door and had their guns aimed at... me. I was cuffed and put into the back of a police car.
Two weeks later:
Because the police saw me kill Jenny and found the bodies of Beverly and Isaac, I was charged with murder and sentenced to life in prison. They put chains on my legs and hands and sent me out of the room. On my way out I saw my mum crying in the corner, her head between her hands and sobbing on the floor. She looked up and with the most maniacal voice I could conjure up I said:
"Don't forget me, mommy!"

THE SAGINAW. THE PERSIA. HAMBURG AMERICAN LINE v. THE SAGINAW. CLYDE S. S. CO. v. THE PERSIA. (District Court, S. D. New York. January 14, 1898.)
CoLLISION-THWARTING MANEUVERS-ROUNDING Buoy-MISUNDERSTANDING 01' SIGNALS-BAD TO STop-INSPECTORS' RULE 8.
The steamship S., outward bound, soon after rounding the Bay Ridge buoy, and about 40 minutes after sunset, came in collision with the steamship P., inward bOUJ;ld, striking the latter at an angle of about three points on the starboard side. When first seen, the vessels were nearly head and head, the So's red light before she had rounded being seen a very little on the Po's starboard bow. The P. ported and .very soon saw the So's two colored lights, and then her green light only on the Po's port bow, whereupon the P. starboarded hard. The S. first noticed the Po's red light on her starboard bow after rounding the buoy, and ported, resulting in collision as above stated. The P. on first porting gave a signal of one blast, and on afterwards starboarding, a signal of two blasts, both 01' which, it was alleged, were answered by the S. with similar whistles. They were neither heard nor answered by the S. There was great confusion and contradiction In the testimony as to bearings and the time of slowing and stopping. Held, that the maneuvers of each were thwarted by the other; that they were less than one-half a mile apart when first observed, very much nearer than claimed, through lack of a proper lookout on each; that neither was justified in starboarding, and the P. was bound under inspectors' rule 3 to reduce her speed more quickly than she did, upon an evident misunderstanding between the ships; and that the S. was further to blame for Inattention to the Po's signals.
These were cross libels for damages resulting from a collision. Wheeler & Cortis, for the Persia. Robinson, Biddle & Ward, for the Saginaw. District Judge. The above cross libels were filed to recovel' the damages to the steamships Persia and Saginaw, arising out of a collision between them, which occurred about 40 minutes after sunset on November 13, 1896, off Stapleton or a little to the northward of it, Staten Island, and probably a little to the westward of mid-channel. The Persia, a large steamer, 445 feet long by 51 feet beam, was coming in from sea and had left Quarantine Station, about a quarter of a mile above Ft. Tompkins, some 11 minutes before the collision, and stood up on a courroe about north, crossing to the eastward by one point the usual course of N. by W. in that part of the bay. The Saginaw, a much smaller steamer, 260 feet long, was outward bound, and shortly before the collision rounded to the westward of Bay Ridge buoy in about mid-channel, and in so doing by the usual course she would naturally change from S. by W.' above the buoy, to S. i E. or S. by E. below it. The night was clear and calm; other vessels were about, but none to interfere with the movements of either of these steamers. Neither was observed by
84 FEDERAL· REt-dItTER.
the other as early as she .havebeen observed; both, after some previous changes of· course, turned to the westward, and the Saginaw, with the bluff of her starboard bow, struck the starboard side of the Persia aft of midships at an angle of about three points or less, with a glanCing blow, which damaged both vessels and injured two children on thel Persia, in whose behalf libels have also been filed against both steamers. The contention for the Persia is that while she was heading north and making nine to ten knots against an ebb tide of two or three knots, the Saginaw's red light was seen nearly ahead and a mile or more away; that the Persia at once ported and gave a signal of one whistle, Which was answered by one whistle from the Saginaw; that soon afterwards the Saginaw's two side lights were seen, and shortly her green light alone; that on seeing her two side lights the Persia's engines were stopped, her wheel starboarded, and a signal of two blasts given, which was answered by two blasts from the Saginaw; that afterwards the Saginaw swinging to the westward, showed again her red light and that the Persia then gave three blasts of her whistle and reversed either then or previously; and that when the vessels were about 300 feet apart she swung her stern about one point to port to eaSe the blow. ,She charges the whole fault nponthe Saginaw, (1) for swinging to port in rounding the Bay Ridge buoy so as to change her show Of lights after the Persia's signal of one whistle, and (2) for turning again to starboard too late and when too near to the Persia, after her previous change to port. For the Saginaw it is claimed that the Persia was not seen, nor any signal given to her until after the Saginaw had turned the buoy; and that no signal of one blast was heard from the Persia at any time; that after the Saginaw had turned the buoy and was on a course of about S. by E. the Persia's red light was seen half a point off the Saginaw starboard bow; that the Saginaw at once ported and gave her a signal of one whistle, and soon after repeated the signal, to neither of which was any answer received; that under the Saginaw's port wheel her head swung to starboard until the Persia was one point on the Saginaw's port bow; that soon after, when the Persia was about two points on the Saginaw's port bow, the Persia's green light came into view and her red light was shut in, being then about 1,000 feet off; that the Saginaw then gave a signal of one blast, to which the Persia replied with two blasts, whereupon the· Saginaw starboarded and at once stopped and reversed at half speed and so continued until collision. She reversed at half speed only in order to avoid too rapid a swing of her head to starboard. She charges the whole fault upon the Persia for starboarding her wheel and crossing the Saginaw's bows when both were in a situation of perfect safety, after the two vessels had been show· ing red to red for a considerable time. The case is an. interesting and a peculiar one, because I am satisfied that each vessel when first seen by the other was seen nearly ahead, and each vessel in then porting her helm, observed the requirements of the rules of navigation, and adopted the maneuver
which seemed the proper one to avoid collision; and yet each vessel in turn thwarted the maneuver of the other, either of which maneu· vers, if not thus thwarted, would have avoided collision. Both mistakes arose from the evident fact that each vessel misunderstood the intentions of the other. The object of the rules as to signals is to prevent such misunderstandings. That object was here frustrated because the Persia attributed to the Saginaw answering signals of assent which the Sag-inaw never gave; and because the Persia did not hear or answer the timely signals of one whistle which the witnesses from the Saginaw testify were given by her, and also because the signals given by the Persia were not heard or noticed on the Saginaw. A further question is also suggested, viz. why in a clear evening and in mild weather and only 40 minutes after sun· set such vessels should not have avoided each other, even without the help of signals, if the approach of either had been reasonably attended to. This involves the question of the actual navigation of each vessel, their distances apart at their various maneuvers, and how the collision occurred On these questions there is considerable conflict, not merely between the witnesses for each vessel against the other, but also between the witnesses on the same ship. In endeavoring to understand how the collision occurred, I have been much embarrassed by these c6ntradictions in the testimony. There is evident inconsistency, confusion and mistake in the Persia's testimony as regards the bearing of the lights seen at different times; and little reliance can be placed upon the estimates of distances on either side. I have spent much time in endeavoring to trace the navigation of the two vessels, according to the testimony as to what they actually did. The result is to a considerable extent in accord with the Persia's diagram; but the distance traversed between the Persia's sighting the Saginaw and starboarding her wheel is, I think, greatly exaggerated in the Persia's diagram, and the posi· tions of the vessels when near collision seem to me forced. From the testimony of the Saginaw's pilot, that after rounding the Bay Ridge buoy in about mid-channel the Ft. Lafayette light bore considerably more off his port bow than the Ft. Wadsworth light off his starboard bow, I think the Saginaw did not turn more to the eastward than S. i E. The Persia, handled as a single screw propeller, i. e. her two screws not put in contrary directions, could turn only about a point in three-fourths of a length, so that had she at first gone more than a point to starboard, she would have been so much to the eastward of the Saginaw that she could not afterwards have got under the Saginaw's bows by starboarding; since the Saginaw, a much smaller vessel, would turn much more rapidly on porting, and hence go off much faster to the westward, than the Persia. When the Saginaw's two colored lights were first seen, the two vessels mu:st have been less than a half mile apart, as a drawing of their courses based upon the testimony as to what each subsequently did will show. Reversing continued not over Ii to 2 minutes before collision; and the master and mate say that it was but a very
short time after the two lights wel'e seen, "a few seconds only," that the Saginaw's red light was seen a second time, whereupon the Persia reversed. I think the interval was probably half a minute, during which the Persia swung to port one or two points. But it was not probably over a third of a minute after the Persia first saw the Saginaw's red light that the latter's two lights were seen. The interval was so short that the mate thought the Persia had not answered her port helm at all; he so entered in the log, and the origina I libel repeats that entry. The Persia probably first turned about a point to starboard in about a thiTd of a minute in going about 400 feet. She then starboarded, but before she broke her sheer and turned westward enough to show her green light, the Saginaw saw her red light a little on the starboard bow, ported a point in probably 20 seconds in going about 250 feet, so as to bring the Persia's red light on the Saginaw's port bow, and thus show her own red light again to the Persia, while the latter in the meantime was swinging to the westward, so as to show soon her o,vn. green again to the Saginaw's red, whereupon both reversed. Unless the Persia had first turned to the eastward about a point, she could not have exhibited her port light to the Saginaw long enough to enable the Saginaw by porting to change the bearing of the red light from her starboard bow to her port bow: as four of her witnesses testify, and at the same time have been able to get to the westward of the Saginaw, and cross her bows, before collision. The vessels were making about the same speed over the land, viz. about 10 knots, and they were probably but little over a half mile apart when the Saginaw's lights were first seen. Probably a half minute later the Saginaw saw the Pers'ia's red light, over her starboard bow, and ported. This was probably as soon as she had straightened upon her course of IS. i E., and the attention of her officers was no longer occupied with turning the buoy, which they could not see. The pilot then first noticed the Persia's hull, and the vessels were then probably but little more than a third of a mile apart. The Persia's testimony that the Saginaw's red light appeared the second time from two to four points off the Persia's starboard bow, and the Saginaw's counter statement, that the PerElia's green light came in sight two or three points on the Saginaw's port bow, are irreconcilable, both estimates of the bearing are eqnally improbable, and I have no doubt that each light became visible when not over half a point off the other vessel's bow, as a drawing of the navigation indicates. For the Saginaw it is contended that the first change in her show of lights to the Persia, viz. from red to green, took place after the Saginaw had rounded the buoy and was straightened down on a course of S. i E. or S. by E., and that that change of lights was caused by the Persia's the bows of the Saginaw to the westward under a starboard helm. But this theory is incompatible with the most important parts of the testimony on both sides, as any dttempt to sketch the navigation of the vessels will show. The Saginaw at some time after having straightened down ported her helm,
according to her own testimony, because she saw the Persia's red light off her starboard bow. There is no other reason or justification for the Saginaw's porting. But if when the Saginaw ported her helm the Persia was showing her red light, the Persia must have been then heading somewhat to the eastward of the Saginaw, and therefore could not possibly have made her supposed turn to the westward and across the Saginaw's bows before the latter ported; if she had done so, she must have shown her green light, and the Saginaw would not have ported at all. On the other hand, the first change in the Saginaw's lights could not have been caused by the Persia's crossing the Saginaw's course to the westward after the Saginaw ported her helm, because on that hypothesis this crossing could only have occurred a few moments before collision, and the Persia could have had the Saginaw's two side lights in view only once, instead of twice, as the testimony is, and the Saginaw's red light could not have come into view a second time after her green light was seen and the red was once shut out; this theory would also impute to the Persia either mistake in putting her helm to starboard when it was ordered put to port, or else the idiotic maneuver of starboarding and running into the Saginaw, at a time when the vessels were ,safely showing red to red. I have no doubt, therefore, that the change in the Saginaw's lights from red to green arose from her own swing to the eastward in rounding the buoy. As the buoy was not seen, she was probably some distance below it before her course got S. t E. Upon this view of the manner in which the collision happened, both vessels should, I think, be held to blame. Neither vessel was noticed by the other in adequate time for a complete watch and observation of course and intention, nor for a clear and intelligible interchange of signals, such as was necessary to prevent misunderstandings. Each gave the proper signal, but no answers were given or received by either until too late. The confusion and mistakes in the testimony are attributable perhaps to the suddenness of the danger when first apprehended. The lookout on the 'Saginaw was certainly very remiss in not seeing and reporting the Persia when she was more than a half mile away, and much sooner than the pilot saw her hull, when it was much nearer than that. Had she been seen and reported while the Saginaw still showed her red light only to the Persia, when certainly bnt little if any over a half mile distant, the Saginaw would have kept to the westward and avoided collision, instead of starboarding and turning as she did, to the eastward, so much as to shut out her red light before she ported. The Persia's pilot heard no answer to his signal of one whistle, or of two whistles, but the mate told the pilot that he heard an answer of one whistle to the first signal of one blast. No such answer, however, had been given; and when, after that, the pilot of the Persia saw the Saginaw's two lights, and then the green light alone, he knew that the Saginaw was proceeding contrary to her supposed answer, that the Saginaw had probably neither seen nor heard the Persia, and that the supposed understanding was a misunderstand-
ing, and t;hat he was therefore bound under inspectors' rule 3 to reduce his speed to bare steerage way with a signal of three blasts, until a common understanding. was had, or else to rely on the Sagipaw to keep out of the way under the starboard hand rule, while the Persia kept her course, as would be required if the situation were to be treated as an original one at that time. Had the Persia observed either of these rules, collision would have been' avoided. The Persia, on first seeing the Saginaw's red light a trifle on her starboard bow, was bound to port as she did. The Persia's pilot had no right to suppose that after a signal of one whistle, which he had given and understood to be answered with one, the Saginaw would attempt to go ahead of him without a signal of two whistles. He heard no such signal at all; and the two blasts, which the other officers swear to hearing, was after the Saginaw had swung to the e3Jstward so as to show her green light only,and after the Persia had starboarded. This was no justification, therefore, of the Persia's starboarding at that time. Considering the previous signal of one whistle by the Persia, and the supposed assenting answer reported to the pilot by the mate and the evident contrary navigation by the Saginaw, the situation was in my judgment, from the Persia's point of view, precisely the one provided for by inspectors' rule 3, as above stated. Instead of observing that rule, the pilot assumed that the Saginaw would continue her course down the bay without change, and he therefore starboarded, giving at the same time a signal of two whistles. The pilot, as I have said, heard no answer. The Persia's other witnesses say this signal was answered by a signal of two whistles from the Sag>inaw. This was a miSitake. The Persia had not then been noticed by the Saginaw, and the situation from the Persia's point of view was evidently, as I have said, either one of uncertainty under inspectors' rule 3, or else one of the starboard hand rule, as an original situation. The Persia in violating both rules took the risk of any further misunderstanding of signals. The Persia's master and mate say that the Persia's engines were stopped at the time the two lights were seen, though not reversed until after the Persia swung two or more points to port and the Saginaw's red light was again disclosed. Even if the engines were stopped when the Persia starboarded, that would not have been a compliance with inspectors' rule 3; and a sketch of the navigation, as well as the log entries, compel me to believe that the engines were not stopped until the Saginaw's two lights were seen the second time. The Persia's master and mate have, I think, made the same error in their testimony as to the occasion of stopping that they manifestly made as to the bearing of the two colored lights on their starboard bow when first seen, viz. that both those occurrences were when those lights were seen theseoond time, and not when first seen. If' the engines were stopped when the two colored lights were first seen, I cannot bring the Persia ahead of the Saginaw. The engineer's log and the pilot'l:l testimony do not agree with any such separation of the orders to stop and to reverse as the interval sufficient for the Persia to change two points to port would require.
The log has the entry of the order to stop and reverse as a single order at 5 :35; the scrap-log has the collision entered as at 5 :35; the third officer says the engine was not stopped any length of time; and the engineer twice says the order to reverse followed instantly the order to stop, as the log itself indicates. The situation when the Persia starboarded was too far from the collision to be deemed a situation in extremis. It could not have been so regarded by the Persia's officers; for, if so, they would naturally not only have reversed at once, but would have worked her two propellers in contrary directions, so as to turn her head very rapidly to port. Had that been done, she would certainly have avoided the Saginaw. This, however, does not absolve the Saginaw from blame in not observing the Persia at a reasonable distance, and therefore avoiding the change in her own lights by her swing to the eastward, and the subsequent embarrassment to the Persia's navigation. It is remarkable that none of the signals given by either vessel, when about a half or a third of a mile apart, were heard by the other; that no answer was in fact obtained by either; and that neither observed the requirements of inspectors' rule 3. I do not feel justified in ascribing the double failure to hear each other's signals to abnormal atmospheric conditions in apparenrtly clear weather, when the vessels were so near to each other; and no other explanation of this failure is apparent except a lack of sufficient attention to the signals given by each. If the latter is the explanation, it equally affects both vessels with fault. But aside from this consideration, I think both should be held to blame for the other reasons stated; and decrees may be entered accordingly.

I have the worst periods ever. They are 7 days long of pure pain and a heavy heavy flow. My back hurts so bad I can hardly bend over, I have cramps in my lower abdomen, down through my hips, down my thighs to my knees. I feel miserable, tired and weak the whole time and have terrible cramps the entire time. Usually right before I get it I get terrible Charlie horses in my legs and feet and sometimes my upper back muscles will cramp up. It's almost like I need to just be home and lay in bed the whole time. I've read that the most blood you can loose is about a cup each month but I'm def sure I loose way more than that, I have what looks like a murder scene in my pants every time I go to the bathroom. It's so much that I have to sleep with a dark towel under me or ill leak all over the bed. I also get bloated terribly and look like I gain 20 lbs. I'm allergic to midol so I can't take that and just to make the pain not so bad I have to take like 5 Motrin. Yesterday at work I almost passed out, got real dizzy and couldn't see straight and that's never happened before. I feel like a big complaining baby during this week but I can't help it, I've sat home and cried before it hurt so bad. I'm wondering if anyone else has terrible periods like this and what can be done to help.
Most Helpful Girl
No, this sounds really bad. Sure, some other girls have it, but you're not supposed to be handicapped for a week because of it. Go see your doctor and ask him to get you on the pill. This will make your periods much lighter and shorter. You should also use ibuprofen when you get really bad cramps, one each 6 hours.00|00|0

New Delhi: Attempting to silence those raising their concerns over growing intolerance, People's Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti on Friday said that India is the most tolerant country as the people live together despite the secular and communal debate.
"India is the most tolerant society. We are not talking about the politicians, politicians play their own game, they make atmosphere intolerant. People of this country are the most tolerant people in the world and that is why they are living together for such a long time in spite of all the secular and communal debate," Mufti told the media here.
The PDP leader backed Bollywood stars Aamir Khan and Shahrukh Khan besides others who have protested against certain unfortunate incidents in the country.
"But I don't think anybody should tell anyone to leave this country and go to Pakistan. The Indian Muslims have consciously rejected the two-nation theory and decided to stay with India. It is their country. Nobody has right to tell them to go to Pakistan," she said.
The Shiv Sena had earlier lashed out at Aamir over his remark and asked him to declare as to which country he would like to settle in.
"If India is not safe for living, then which country is 'Idiot Ranchoddas' (Aamir's character in the movie 3-Idiots) planning to go? Is it Pakistan, Afghanistan, Paris, Brussels or Mali? He should declare at earliest. Those who do not feel that the country is theirs should stop pretending to be patriots," an article in Shiv Sena mouthpiece Saamna said.
Speaking at the eighth edition of the Ramnath Goenka Excellence in Journalism Awards, Aamir had earlier expressed alarm and despondency over the rise in cases displaying intolerance in the last six to eight months.
He had said that a sense of 'insecurity' and 'fear' had seeped deep within society.
"When I go home and talk to Kiran (Aamir's wife), for the first time she says, 'Should we move out of India?'" Khan said.
The actor, however, clarified on Wednesday that neither he nor his wife Kiran has any intention of leaving the country as he is proud to be an Indian. (ANI)
