Have we bitten off too much. >>
IMHO - yes. I've counted only 3 days out of 26 when you are not on the road. [I might have missed one or two, but not many]. you will find this extremely tiring, and you have allowed little or no time for stopping and looking at the wonderful things that you will only glimpse as you go past. You can't make very good time on any of NZ's roads, and on some [especially in the NI we found] it can take an extremely long time to get to where you want to go.
for example, Wellington to Napier is a good 5 hour drive [the section just north of Wellington is particularly hard work] so when are you going to explore Napier? there are activities enough to fill at least 2 full days there, - a city tour looking at the Art Deco architecture, a trip to see the gannets, a wine tour by car or bike - but you've got less than 1/2 a day.
another example - on Day 13, you're planning to drive from Wanaka to Franz Joseph AND to do a helicopter tour, but the drive itself, without and stops for exploring the many walks along the way, or to eat, takes between 5-6 hours. When are you going to see the glacier?
i'm sorry to be so negative, but despite the excellent advice we received here, we still underestimated the driving times and had to re-jig our trip as we went round. Have you checked driving distances and times on a website like the AA's?
BTW we loved NZ, but driving there can be quite hard work!

Thanks annhig for you honest opinion. I do appreciate you taking the time to respond.I really have no idea. I suppose I'm trying to fit a little of everything into this trip. Another 4-5 days would be ideal. PS: I don't see you as being negative, I see it as helpful. so thanks.

Normally I think most itineraries are possible (and that sometimes fast road trip suits)...but even I read the first 5 days of this and made myself feel carsick at the thought of it all that time on windy roads in a motorhome!
As always, depends on your style and all that, but here's some things for you to mull over...
- The roads are windy..(scenic but windy)
- Motorways/Highways are few and far between
- Depending where you are from, it's likely that you'll find fuel here expensive - currently $2.14 a Litre for petrol.
Personally, I'd rent a car and stay at motels...but that's not helpful advice if you really want to use a motorhome. So...if the motorhome is the way to go, I'd start culling the places you want to visit.
I've had a bit of a go at a slightly scaled back itinerary below...but it's still a whirlwind tour. I've taken out Akaroa, The Catlins, Dunedin, Napier, Coromandel and Cape Reinga, and these are based only on nothing other than my own preferences, so I'm not saying that my way is best...it's just where I'd start if I had limited time.
It's good advice to check out travel times, and I'd seriously think about what you hope to gain by being in a motorhome - ie. if you're going to be staying mostly in towns and plan to park at caravan parks, then I think the economics would start to sway towards a rental car and motels. It would be sooo much more comfortable as well (driving, as well as sleeping, eating and doing laundry)...
Day 1. Fly in to Christchurch.
Day 2. Pick up Motorhome. Drive straight to Hamner Springs. Stay Hanmer.
Day 3. Go to Kaikoura. Stay Kaikoura
Day 4. Drive back to Chch. Sightseeing at Christchurch/Lyttelton. Stay Chch
Day 5. Drive Chch to Geraldine. Stay Geraldine
Day 6. Drive around Lake Tekapo/Mt Cook. Stay at Mt Cook
Day 7. Drive to Qtown. Stay Qtown.
Day 8. Drive to Te Anau. Stay Te Anau.
Day 9. Milford Sound cruise. Stay Te Anau
Day 10. Explore Queenstown. Stay Qtown
Day 11. Arrowtown-Cromwell -Wanaka.
Day 12. Stay Wanaka
Day 13. Drive to Franz Josef. Helicopter flight. Stay Franz.
Day 14. Onto Murchison.
Day 15. Drive to Picton, ferry to wellington.
Day 16. Ferry and explore Wellington. Stay Wellington.
Day 17. Drive to Taupo. Stay Taupo.
Day 18. Taupo - Rotorua. Stay Rotorua.
Day 19. Stay at Rotorua. Moari culture etc.
Day 20. Drive to Auckland. Stay Auckland
Day 21. Drive to Paihia/Bay of Islands. Stay Paihia.

Day 26. More of Auckland. Drop off Motorhome and fly Home.
Good luck!

Hi Thelittlestkiwi,
Thanks for taking the time to assist us. I will take on board your suggestions. We have already booked our motorhome. It is something we wanted to do at least once. (may hate it)But..
Being from a country area in NSW. We are not really interested in major cities. (Hate going to Sydney.) Notice you have removed Napier? I was thinking of doing the same. Extra day around Paihia sounds better. So thanks again.
Report Abuse
walph - thanks for taking my "helpful hints" on the chin, as you say, I'm only trying to assist.
we really liked Napier [would have liked it even more had it not rained most of the time] but mainly because the sun shone on the morning we went to see the Gannets which were a real highlight of our trip. if you aren't that keen on birds/wild-life and art deco, then dropping Napier's a good idea.
Shame to drop the Coromandel, though the Bay of Islands may compensate.
But taking the littlest Kiwi's itinerary, it looks pretty good, though I think that you could avoid splitting up your stay in Queenstown like this:
Day 7. Drive to Qtown. Stay Qtown.
Day 8. Stay Q-town -explore Arrowtown etc.
Day 9. Drive to Te Anau. Stay Te Anau
Day 10. Milford Sound cruise. Stay Te Anau.
Day 11. Drive to Wanaka.
Day 12. Stay Wanaka
Day 13. Drive to Franz Josef. Helicopter flight. Stay Franz.
it's only about 90 mins from Queenstown to Wanaka, so it increases the journey from Te Anau from 2 1/2 hours to 4, which isn't too bad, and still leaves you with most of the day for exploring, and as I say, gives you all your time in QT in one block, which seems to me to be a better idea. I am getting these times from the wonderful New Zealand travellers' road Atlas pub by Pathfinder/Kiwi Maps. As well as detailed road maps, places of interest, large-scale plans for cities etc it has a map of each island showing distances and driving times. We found these to be pretty accurate, and certainly not too long!
you still have a lot to do on Day 13 - my trusty map tells me that it's a 6 hour drive from Wanaka to Franz Joseph, so i think that I would try to find another day for here, somehow as that doesn't leave you much time to do the heli-tour. if you cut out your stay at Murchison, you could drive straight from F Joseph to Nelson [this was the longest drive we did on the SI, the map says it's about 7 hours, but we did it and still had time to spend in Greymouth and Hokatika]. It's just an hour or so from Nelson to Picton so easily done on the day you're catching the ferry. That would give you this:
Day 13. Drive to Franz Josef. Stay Franz.
Day 14. Helicopter flight. Stay Franz
Day 15. Drive to Nelson, stay Nelson.
Day 16: Drive to Picton - ferry to wellington. stay Wellington.
This gives you less time in Wellington but you say you're not that interested in cities so that may not be a problem.

Sorry have been a bit busy the last few weeks.
I notice you have both removed Dunedin??? Is that to save time or there is not much value going there??
Once again thank you, Your comments have been very helpful.
Report Abuse
Walph - we never got to Dunedin, though there were things in that area we'd have liked to see we just ran out of time but it got omitted as I was essentially amending the littlest kiwi's itinerary which had left it out.
however much time you've got, you may still struggle to see everything on your list.

You could leave Dunedin in, as per your original itinerary. Dunedin is all kinds of awesome.
But, I didn't see it as a must see on your first visit to NZ, and I just kept imagining if I was doing this trip, how sick (mentally and physically!) I would be in a motorhome on the hilly, windy roads between Dunedin/Owaka/Invercargill. So, I am absolutely projecting my own experiences on the advice I'm giving!
I also thought that there were other places that I would rather have an extra night or 2, and they needed to come from somewhere!
As you'll be in a motorhome, you have the flexibility...I would be very, very, very surprised if you needed to book anywhere.
So, maybe start with your original itinerary and play it by ear. You might love Hanmer Springs and want to spend 4 days there, and the weather might be terrible for glaciers and you decide not to travel that direction...
I'm sure you'll have a great trip, whatever way you decide to go

Hi there,
Where in country nsw are you? Do you have access to / like the coast? I'm living in Wollongong at the moment but grew up in NZ - the South coast is much more similar to the North Island but I haven't seen anything similar to NZ South Island / west coast / southern lakes yet.
If you're not interested in cities I would simply skip them all as they are just cities... My two cents and it's going to be a bit different but I feel it gives you adequate time in each of the place
Pick up motor home - drive to hanmer / stay (1)
Drive Lewis pass to punakaiki - pancake rocks / breakfast.
Drive South following sh6 via grey mouth to hokitika - stay (2)
Drive South to franz / fox glacier and stay two to three nights (3/4/5). One day you can visit the glaciers by foot, next day you can drive to lake Matheson car park, park up and have your breakfast looking at the southern alps (done this before then do heli tour of the glaciers. Rather than staying a three nights here you could spend the last one in Haast (simply to stay the night / nothing else here - we parked in the Haast motor camp) a also went down to jacksons bay to look around but could easily skip this
Drive from glaciers / Haast to wanaka - stay (6). Stop on the side of the road for lunch as you go over the crest of a hill and lake wanaka opens up in front of you with the cliffs in the back ground - you'll know when you get there.
Drive from wanaka to queenstown - stay up to five nights (7/8/9/10/11) - one day drive to glenorchy / dart river kayaking / walk something... Another you can go and explore arrow town, another take a trip on the earnslaw... Explore queenstown, hire bikes and ride around the lake...lots to do and queenstown is worth the time as the scenery is stunning...jet boat shot over / Bungy jump...
Drive to te anua - stay two nights (12/13). Do Milford sound trip on middle day with no extra driving (just enjoy taking your time this day). Book boat trip with real journeys. One night do glow worms
Drive from te anua to lake tekapo (long day but nothing really between) - stay (14).
Drive lake tekapo to kaikoura (or Akaroa if you still want to go here) - stay (15).
Drive to picton and catch interislander ferry - stay somewhere possibly levin or Wellington. (16)
Drive to taupo - stay (17)
Drive to rotorua and stay two nights (18/19) do Maori stuff / geothermal activities
Skip coromandel (you just can't do it justice and nsw coast has similar landscape)
Drive rotorua to workworth/matakana (1hr north of Auckland) - stay (18).
Drive to paihia stay (19/20/21/22) - one day Russell / waitangi, another Cape Reinga day tour.
Drive back to Auckland and leave.
You still have 23/24/25 to add in. Could do Akaroa, stay longer in queenstown or wanaka, stay in te anua an extra night and do doubtful sound too...
Hope this doesn't confuse you too much,

To all above, I really appreciate your comments.
I got the types of responses & assistance I was hoping for.
So now its up to me to process all this information.
Hope I haven't planned to much. But we may never get back again so want to make the most of it & see as much as possible. Have already found two extra lazy days,to give us a rest from driving.
So thanks again, Can't wait to visit these two lovely islands.

Dunedin is an excellent place for viewing wildlfe. Yellow Eyed Penguins, Blue Penguins, endangered Hookers Sea Lions, Fur Seals are a common sight along the Otago Coast (from Oamaru down though Dunedin down to the Catlins). It's also a fantastic place for birdwatching year-round. Dunedin has the Southern Hemisphere's only mainland albatross colony at Taiaroa Head, and the only mainland fairy prion colony. Rare Stewart Island Shags also have a large colony at Taiaroa Head. While you can easily see wildlife on your own, I think the best bang for your buck and especially if you're short on time is a Elm Wildlife Tour as they have private access to a beach with Yellow Eyed Penguins, Blue Penguins, Sea Lions, and an enormous Fur Seal colony. They also take you to the albatross colony and to Hoopers Inlet, which is full of wading birds. The Monarch Cruise, Penguin Place and Royal Albatross Centre are also top Otago Peninsula tour operators and offer excellent experiences.
In November, there might be Yellow Eyed Penguins and Blue Penguins in their nests, so if you visit this area on your own take great care to not get close to the penguins. Try and stay about 10 metres back as they are easily disturbed and frightened. If they walk toward you, please back away because you are probably in the path to their nests, as they take the same path every day. The hungry chicks will be waiting for their parents to return from the sea, but if the adults see you, they might decide to stay in the water longer, getting tired out. Most of this year's Yellow Eyed Penguin chicks starved to death, this coming season might be a tough one as well because of El Nino. Late afternoon is best for seeing Yellow Eyed Penguins.
November weather for the Otago Coast is unpredictable to put it mildly. It can be wet, foggy and grey with strong southerly and northerly winds. Autumn and winter are more settled, less windy, sunnier, clearer, though with shorter days. When it's sunny, as it was this weekend, it's lovely here. If it's grey and wet, you'll wish you were elsewhere.
Even though you don't want to spend much time in cities, Dunedin is fairly interesting because it was founded in 1848 by Scottish settlers and before that it home to Maori settlements, so lots of history, great old architecture and interesting attractions (many of which are free). Though you can easily avoid the city center by spending all your time on the peninsula. There's also a motor home park at St. Kilda Beach. Dunedin is the city's second largest city area-wise, and most of it is rural.
I agree you should try and travel in a circle, without having to double back to places you've already visited, such as Queenstown and Christchurch (where you also might have to deal with traffic). So if you incorporate the beautiful and interesting West Coast of the South Island into your trip, you can travel from Punakaiki-Hokitika-Fox or FJ Glacier-Wanaka-Queenstown-Te Anau-Milford Sound (day trip from Te Anau)-Catlins (Owaka or Curio Bay)via Southern Scenic Route to Dunedin/Otago Peninsula-Oamaru-Mt. Cook-Christchurch, etc. From Wanaka to Queenstown, you can take either the Crown Range Road (ends nears Arrowtown), or Lindis Pass-Cromwell-Kawarua Gorge-Gibbston Valley. If you are interested in wine tasting, the latter route offers more wineries. Both routes are scenic, curvy, and can get busy.

I should have added, the best place for viewing penguins is from a hide, so they cannot see you. In this way, you can watch them quite closely without disturbing or frightening them.

Thanks Diamantina, Your comments are very helpful.
Can I travel from Te Anau to Dunedin in one day,if I go via the Caitlin's coast line? Or will that be to much travelling?

You'll be more relaxed if you overnight in the Catlins, however, if you don't mind a long drive with leisurely stops, then you can visit Nugget Point Lighthouse enroute to Dunedin. In November, the sun will rise around 6 a.m. and set after 8:30. So you'll have time.
Te Anau to Gore will take about 1:40 to 2 hours. Easy drive through the countryside. Gore's a good spot to get out and stretch. They have a lovely little museum, the Eastern Southland Gallery. Nearby is the Moonshine Museum, which I've not visited.
Gore to Balclutha in the Catlins is about an hour. Balclutha is about a half hour from Nugget Point, some of the way on gravel road. From the Nugget Point parking lot, you must walk about 15 minutes to the lighthouse. It's a beautiful walk. Look for Royal Spoonbills in the trees below the track. I've also see schools of dolphins offshore here. At Nugget Point Lighthouse, look for fur seals. After you leave the parking lot, detour to Roaring Bay (a few minutes away) to see if you can spot a Yellow Eyed Penguin from the hide.
From Nugget Point to Dunedin is 90 minutes, following the Southern Scenic Route (turn onto Finlayson Road at Lake Waihola and continue up the coast to Dunedin, otherwise you'll end up on the freeway). The last stop along the SSR is Tunnel Beach Track off Blackhead Road in Dunedin. If the weather is fine, you should stop here. The track is steep, but you need only walk 5 minutes down the track to take in great views of the rocky promontory jutting out over the water.
From Dunedin's city center, it's 30 minutes to Portobello, on the Otago Peninsula. Take Highcliff Road into the peninsula, take Portobello Road out of the peninsula. Both roads are narrow and curvy.
If you decide to stay on the peninsula, I can give you detailed directions on how to get there from the SSR without having to go all the way into Dunedin's city center first! I can suggest a more scenic and serene route.
If you can overnight in the Catlins, which would be best, I suggest Curio Bay/Porpoise Bay. There is a holiday park here for your motorhome, otherwise, baches on Porpoise Bay are simple but cheap.
Example of bach rental:
Curio Bay is home to a Jurassic-age fossil forest of national importance, with petrified stumps and felled trees visible at low tide. It's also home to Yellow Eyed Penguins, that return from sea beginning in the late afternoon, but you may see chicks during the day (please give them lots of space and privacy). The chicks look almost full size but they'll have downy brown feathers. Dress warmly if you plan on watching the penguins come in as you could be standing around for a while. Unlike other penguins, YEPs are solitary and anti-social, so you will rarely see more than two penguins come ashore at once, most of the time it'll be only one at a time. Rare endemic Hectors Dolphins can often be seen in Porpoise Bay during summer; they'll often come close to swimmers, kayakers and surfers. (These beautiful animals can also be seen in Akaroa Harbor, where you can also swim with them).
If you were to wake up in Curio/Porpoise Bay, you'd be perfectly situated for exploring the southern and central Catlins before heading north to Dunedin. There's much to do and see here. To name a few: walk in the forest, visit waterfalls, drive down to Waipapa Point Lighthouse (where you can often see rare NZ Hookers Sea Lions on the beach below), tour the unique and quirky Lost Gypsy Gallery in Papatowai, visit Cathedral Caves ($5 admission and only accessible within two hours on either side of low tide). If you make it this far south, don't fail to stop at the Florence Hill lookout above Tautuku Bay.
Curio Bay to Dunedin is approximately 2:30 hours.
There are also interesting places to stop from Dunedin to Oamaru. It's not necessary to overnight in Oamaru on the way to Mt. Cook or Tekapo. Oamaru has a large Little Blue Penguin Colony, however, you can also see Little Blue Penguins at Taiaroa Head on the Otago Peninsula. The LBPs come onto shore in groups when it's dark, as the last light is on the horizon, but the viewing platform at Taiaroa Head is well-lit. Both the colony in Oamaru and at Taiaroa Head charge admission. Oamaru's colorful Victorian Fete takes place on Sunday November 16, 2014, when hundreds flood into the Victorian precinct dressed in their
Victorian attire for a street fair with entertainment and stalls.
If the weather gods shine down on you, you should have a wonderful time. If not, you'll still see some interesting things.

I mentioned all those activities in the Catlins, not because I thought you should or could do them all but as available options. I had meant to put an "or" or two in there!

Wow.I may hire you as our travel guide. So much information. Thank you.

That's funny. Actually, it looks likes you've gotten a lot of good advice here from many folks. I'm happy to have helped and that you were even interested in coming to Dunedin, though I should feel guilty for confounding you with further options. Luckily, my knowledge is mainly confined to my immediate area of Dunedin and surrounds, which I am still learning about (it's a big area).
But I won't feel bad if you have to nix Dunedin from your schedule. If you're coming from NSW, I think you'll really enjoy the lush foliage of the West Coast of the South Island (don't forget the repellent), as well as the mountainous interior of both islands. The East Coast of the South Island more reflects the deforestation of the early pastoralists, though there are still a few stands of native bush.
Because you're interested in wildlife, I'd recommend the Wellington attraction, Zealandia, an eco-sanctuary in the heart of the city and home to free-roaming, rare native animals, such as tuatara and takahe. Walking through Zealandia, we had to duck our heads because there were so many kaka flying closely overhead. It's best to join a free walking tour as the guides are knowledgeable and amazingly skilled at locating wildlife, which you might otherwise miss. Free shuttles to Zealandia run from both the top of the Cable Car (another must-do, and conveniently next to the Botanical Garden) and from near the I-Site Tourism Office not far from Te Papa (the national museum, an absolute must). If you visit the city on Thursday, Te Papa stays open until 9, which will give you more time to explore. If you happen to be there on a Friday, there's a night market on Cuba St. Wellington is blessed with a stunning harborside location and is very walkable, much more so than Auckland (which can frustrate with traffic). But prepare for Wellington's winds!
As you renting a motorhome, you'll be spending a lot on petrol, which I believe is more expensive in NZ. You can sometimes save by getting a coupon for fuel savings at Countdown and New World Market. For instance, right now if you buy $80 worth of groceries at Countdown you can get 10 cents off per litre at Z stations. Over the weekend, if you spent $200 at New World Market, you'd get a coupon for 40 cents off per litre at Mobil. If there are four of you, you might be spending some money at the grocery store and the fuel savings, if offered, can save you a little at the pump.

Both the colony in Oamaru and at Taiaroa Head charge admission>>
I can definitely recommend an overnight stay in Oamaru, not least because if you want to see the lbps in any numbers, you'll have to wait til dusk/nightfall to do so. but in Oamaru it's not necessary to go to the penguin information centre to see them - just wander down to the beach and watch them from there. They waddle up the beach next to the harbour; some of them nest right next to the road. We found a very nice BnB in a pub in the Victorian area, and enjoyed a lovely stroll around the town, including an impromptu guided tour around the newly restored opera house [yes, really!] before we had a terrific italian dinner and then the penguin show.

WINTER PARK, Fla. - A man was arrested on suspicion of picking up his son from a Seminole County elementary school while drunk and assaulting the principal.
James Allison, 29, of Winter Park, was arrested on charges of disorderly intoxication, disruption of a school function, assault on a school staff member and possession of drug paraphernalia.
According to the Seminole County Sheriff's Office, Allison walked to Eastbrook Elementary School in Winter Park to pick up his son and was nearly struck by a vehicle. He then started to leave the school while stumbling and leaning on his son, and school officials asked him to return so they could contact the boy's mother, deputies said.
Allison and his son were taken to a school conference room, and the boy began crying, making Allison upset, the Sheriff's Office said.
Allison asked repeatedly if he was under arrest and was told that school officials were trying to resolve the situation, deputies said. A short time later, Allison assaulted the school principal, Rick Carver, stating, "If you talk to my son again I will kill you with my bare hands," according to the Sheriff's Office.
Allison was placed under arrest and drug paraphernalia was found in his pocket, deputies said.
No other information was released.

Friedrich Wilhelm Ulrich
Götz Freiherr von König
(13.09.1849 - 07.01.1934)
place of birth: Vienenburg, Hannover
Preußen: HKK,
General der Kavallerie
Imperial German cavalry officer Götz Freiherr von König
commanded both Landwehr and cavalry troops at the division and corps
level during the first years of the Great War. König originally entered military
service in 1866 as a 17-year old lieutenant in Hannover's Army. As
such, he fought against the Prussians during the Austro-Prussian
War of 1866 and was taken as a prisoner of war. After his
release, he transferred to a Braunschweig cavalry regiment and saw
action with this unit during Germany's war with France in 1870.
Following a successful peace-time career as a
German cavalry officer, König
retired from active duty in 1905 at the rank of Generalleutnant. As
Germany mobilized in August 1914, General König
was reactivated and sent to Posen as commander of 3rd Landwehr Division
based in Posen. His success in battling the Russians resulted in his
being selected in December 1914 to replace General von Woyrsch as the
head of Landwehr Corps. König
remained in this capacity for the next two years, receiving a promotion
to General der Kavallerie in late 1915.
In September 1916, the Kaiser selected von König to head up First Cavalry Corps
(HKK 1), which soon thereafter was renamed General Command Nr. 56. These troops remained
engaged on the Eastern Front until the March 1918 Treaty of
Brest-Litovsk marked the Russians' exit from the War. The
command was dissolved soon thereafter, and Freiherr von König retired to his Wolterdorf estate. The general's
son Leo became a renowned artist from the Berliner

"The boy and his father vehemently denied that. I can only think that this claim stemmed from people who looked at the tour photos that were put up on the web," education spokesperson Paddy Attwell said.
"The pictures had a sexual element to them but there was no evidence to suggest sexual assault took place."
According to a Beeld report on May 10, the boy's mother claimed he was sexually assaulted with a broom handle and a banana in March after playing a rugby match against a local school, while camping at Velddrif on the West Coast.
She told the newspaper that he had sent her a "please call me" from his cellphone after the older boys apparently wanted to shave his head.
The next night, after he had gone to sleep, he was allegedly attacked in his bed and raped. The attackers also shaved his eyebrows, squirted toothpaste up his nose and drew a phallic object on his forehead.
Various reports that followed had assumed, as fact, that the boy and his father claimed the same thing, Attwell said.
Lt-Col Andrè Traut confirmed that a case was opened at Bothasig police station in connection with the Edgemead High School rugby tour.
But a senior state prosecutor declined to prosecute after looking at the complete docket, Traut said.
The department conducted its own investigation to determine whether any sexual violation, humiliation or initiation had taken place.
"The investigation found that learners engaged in initiation practices, which included shaving the hair of newcomers and drinking a non-alcoholic mixture of various substances," Attwell said.
Certain team members drank alcohol despite a warning by their coach.
Attwell said team members subjected the boy to humiliating treatment on the night of March 17 and took photos which appeared on social media sites.
Seven pupils were suspended for seven days after a disciplinary hearing.
It was found that the school had followed the correct disciplinary procedure.
"The investigation could not find evidence that the boy was raped or sexually assaulted. The boy and his family have denied making this claim," Attwell said.
The department, nonetheless, condemned the pupils' behaviour as appalling.
A warning letter on initiation practices would be sent to the principal. He would be expected to reply with measures he had taken to ensure that initiation did not happen again. – Sapa

JDSU acquires Picolight for $115 million
Post a comment
LOUISVILLE, Colo. Picolight Inc., the optical communications developer a founded in 1995, is being acquired by JDSU for $115 million in JDSU stock, the companies said Tuesday (Feb. 27). The purchase price also includes an additional $10 million in cash that is contingent on Picolight meeting revenue targets.
The vertical cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) developer was founded by two former executives of Vixel Corp., Stan Swirhun and Jack Jewell. Originally, Picolight planned to manufacture standalone VCSELs for sale to component companies and OEMs, but decided after the telecom recession to package laser arrays in standard transceiver packages for metropolitan access markets.
Jewell has remained with Picolight, while Swirhun moved to Zarlink Semiconductor to launch a new optical components business. Since then, Picolight's 850- and 1,310-nm transceiver products have found a significant market in enterprise and carrier-edge applications.
Meanwhile, the budding VCSEL business has become more tightly controlled by key optical players.
Vixel abandoned VCSEL components to focus on data storage. It was eventually acquired by Emulex Corp. Finisar picked up Honeywell's VCSEL business in 2004. Agilent Technologies spun its VCSEL group, along with several component and chip operations, into Avago Technologies. Bookham bought Avalon Photonics, and newcomer Alight Technologies A/S acquired Infineon Technologies' VCSEL business.
Mike Ricci, senior vice president and general manager of JDSU's optical communications group, said JDSU had previously relied on Picolight as a transceiver supplier, while conducting its own VCSEL research, but the Picolight acquisition "represents our first move into integrated VCSEL transceivers, and in this business right now vertical integration counts for everything."
Picolight chief executive Steve Hane said the deal assumes that JDSU would retain most of Picolight's management team, including himself, Jewell and Tom White, vice president of components. Ricci added that JDSU is committed to retaining and expanding Picolight's development and preproduction plant here. Picolight outsources some wafer steps and component assembly, but performs its own epitaxial growth and VCSEL device processing. Ricci said he saw no reason for that to change.

City Council President Ben Hueso is under the spotlight again for adding the appointment of a San Diego Unified Port Commissioner this Monday's docket — one week before he leaves for the state Assembly.
The seven-member port commission is one of the most important agencies in determining how the San Diego Bay waterfront is developed.
A memo dated Monday signed by council members Carl DeMaio, Donna Frye and Sherri Lightner asks Hueso to remove the appointment from the council meeting so it can be docketed after newly elected council members David Alvarez and Lorie Zapf are sworn into office on Dec. 6.
A letter from San Diego Convention Center Corporation Chairman Bob Nelson, a potential commission appointee, asked Hueso to respect the request of the three council members.
Hueso's spokeswoman, Michelle Ganon, said Hueso will "entertain a continuance" to push the appointment to a later date.
The other person in the running for the commission seat is California Western School of Law professor Andrea Johnson.
Hueso has been under scrutiny lately for proposing bonuses for his staff and hiring three new workers a few weeks before leaving office. Hueso has also scheduled appointments or reappointments for two lower-profile boards and the San Diego Airport Authority.
Ganon said her boss is not trying to load up the docket at the last minute, but rather work for his term's duration.
This is not the first time appointments for a commissioner have been hurried before new council members come in. In 2008, then-Council President Scott Peters and incumbent Port Commissioner Laurie Black were appointed to the board less than a month before Peters' ended his term.

DETROIT, Dec. 12 (UPI) -- Detroit police said they called an end to the official search for 2-year-old Bianca Jones, who has been missing for 10 days.
A $25,000 reward was offered for information in the disappearance of the child, whose father said was taken during a Dec. 2 carjacking, the Detroit Free Press reported.
On Sunday, the last official day of the search, 138 volunteers patrolled streets, alleys and fields, looking for the girl.
Police said more than 1,100 people volunteered during the search, which began Dec 5.
"Except for Angel's Night [a volunteer-driven effort to keep Detroit safe around Halloween], I can't recall a time when this many volunteers came forward," said Sgt. Eren Stephens, Detroit police spokeswoman.
"It's good to come together as a community," volunteer Karl Janka, 45, said. "I'm a parent myself and it's good to continue to give the family hope, to show that the community still cares."
The girl's father D'Andre Lane, 32, called police on the morning of Dec. 2 and reported being carjacked. Lane told police his daughter was in the back seat. Police found the car about 10 minutes later, but the girl was gone.
Lane's story was questioned by police and he failed a polygraph test, the report said. Lane said he has received a number of death threats since police began questioning his story.
"Some people are out here to find the baby and I hope we do. But as a police officer and a father, we're also looking for evidence," said officer Lawrence Smith.

State officials have started preparing for the possibility that federal funding for programs like PeachCare might dry up if Congress does not raise the debt ceiling by the Tuesday deadline.
The state has not received any notification about funding that might be cut if the debt ceiling isn't raised, but Gov. Nathan Deal on Wednesday ordered the Office of Planning and Budget to come up with a plan, said Brian Robinson, Deal's deputy chief of staff. That plan should be finished later this week, he said.
"There is a possibility of disruption that must be considered, and we want to be as prepared as possible," Robinson said.
If President Obama and Congress do not reach a deal to increase the $14.3 trillion the federal government is legally allowed to owe bondholders within days, the government might not be able to afford to pay federal employees and defense contractors, mail Social Security checks or, in the worst-case scenario, make interest payments on the debt.
If the debt ceiling is not raised, unemployment checks could stop immediately, Robinson said.
For other programs that are funded by the federal government but run by the state, such as the Medicaid and PeachCare health insurance programs for the poor and disabled, the state could come up with money to keep them running for a couple of weeks, Robinson said. The state spends money for those programs up-front and is reimbursed by the federal government later, he said.
"That poses serious concerns about how the state would pay its bills," Robinson said.
About 29 percent of the state's $38 billion total budget, or $11 billion, comes from the federal government.
Most federal funding to local governments passes through the state first, so it is difficult for local officials to plan for a potential disruption without knowing what the state will do, Athens-Clarke Finance Director John Culpepper said.
"We don't think it'll affect federal funding (for Athens-Clarke County)," Culpepper said. "It might slow it down, slow down reimbursements."
The exception is $2.4 million in direct federal block grants for affordable housing, social services and economic development, Culpepper said. Those grants might be affected either because the debt ceiling isn't raised or as part of a compromise on raising it, he said.
House Speaker John Boehner is pushing a plan to let the government keep borrowing for about another eight months in exchange for $1.2 trillion in spending cuts over 10 years, but many conservatives say the savings are too small, and Obama has said he would veto that bill because he wants to raise the debt ceiling enough to last through the 2012 election.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's proposal would raise the debt ceiling $2.7 trillion and cut spending by $2 trillion. A bipartisan group of senators know as the Gang of Six, including Georgia Republican Saxby Chambliss, has put up an even more ambitious plan that would slash spending by $4 trillion.
Deal is not taking a position on what Congress should do about the debt ceiling, Robinson said.

|Married man gets first bi-experience with friend while camping out in the woods.
My buddy was Ken and he was 51 years old and also married.
It was June and Ken and I decided to go on a guys camping weekend. So we packed up my tent, our sleeping bag and the rest of the camping gear. We headed out on a Thursday afternoon and arrived in a secluded area of a national park in the northern area of our state.
After we had the tent set-up and the campfire going, we just relaxed and enjoyed the twinkling stars while he drank some beer. We laughed and told dirty jokes and then our discussions led to talk about sex with our wives. We both confessed that our wives wouldn't let us cum into their mouths or perform anal sex. Since we both were a little drunk, we both mentioned that we wanted to experience cumming in a female's mouth.
It was time for bed and we both had to pee in the worst way.
We got up and walked over to a nearby bush. We both whipped out our cocks and the stream of piss sprinkled the leaves of the bush. While he peed, I couldn't resist and glanced over and took a peek of Ken's cock. Nice! I thought to myself while he held his flaccid dick in his hand. It looked to be about the same size as my cock. But what I didn't realize was that Ken also snuck a peak of my cock while I was pissing.
So after we peed, we stripped down to our boxer shirts and climbed into our sleeping bags for the evening. While we lay on our back in our sleeping bags, all I could think about was the sight of Ken's cock. Then those thoughts of his cock gave me a boner.
It was two hours later, and some commotion outside me up. I looked over and Ken was not inside his sleeping bag. I got concerned so I got out of my sleeping bag and went outside the tent.
The campfire was nothing but glowing coals and I looked around for Ken. Then the full Moon provided enough light and I saw him by some trees.

Washington (AFP) June 26, 2008
Global warming has caused numerous European plant species to migrate to higher elevations over the decades, according to new research published Thursday.
The research appears in the June 27 edition of the journal Science, and has potentially "important ecological and evolutionary consequences," the study's authors wrote.
A team of international scientists working in mountainous regions of Western Europe compared the natural elevation range of 171 forest plant species between 1905 and 1985, and again between 1986 and 2005.
"Along the entire elevation range, 0 to 2,600 meters (8,500 feet) above sea level ... we show that climate warming has resulted in a significant upward shift in species optimum elevation averaging 29 meters (95 feet) per decade," the researchers wrote.
The lead author of the study was Jonathan Lenoir of AgroParisTech in Nancy, France.
The report, compiled with data from the French National Climatic Network, was conducted in six mountainous regions throughout Europe.
They include the Northern Pyrenees, the Massif Central, the Western Jura, the Vosges, the Corsican range and the alpine regions, where average temperature increases have approached one degree Celsius since the start of the 1980s, researchers said.

Of all the open-ended questions you'll receive in interviews, this question is the most ambiguous—for good reason. Interviewers aren't just looking for you to sell yourself and explain why you're a strong candidate for the position; they're also testing how well you can structure a response out of ambiguity and condense a lot of information into a two-minute story. To succeed in this question, share how your experiences have shaped you into a perfect candidate for the company.
Tell a clear, compelling story that highlights significant experiences in your life that has lead you to this moment, where you're sitting in front of the interviewer answering this question.
An effective answer requires that you "step outside" yourself to objectively reflect on your life, then respond with the passion only you yourself could have. The ultimate goal is to have a story attached to your name that elegantly captures exactly who you are.
Key points
- Tell a concise, cohesive story highlighting the achievements in your life.
- Show how your experiences make you the perfect candidate for the company.
- Highlight a specific experience that makes you stand out above everyone else.
- Be passionate and energetic about yourself; even a fun story is boring if you tell it in a monotone and impersonal voice.
- Keep your answer within 2 minutes.
- Begin with your name, birth place and where you grew up.
- Highlight anything significant about your hometown that has shaped you into the person you are today and lead you to choose a career with the company and its industry
- Discuss your education.
- Explain why you chose your major and what skills that major offers
- Show how your background has lead you to choose your major
- Explain how this university and major fits into your life goals
- Talk about the "experience that started it all."
- Pinpoint the important experience that started you down this professional path
- Discuss the context and outcomes of this event, and why it was so transformative
- Tell a chronological story that builds upon this experience.
- Discuss work experience, leadership, campus activities and projects that built on the experience that started it all
- The key is to develop a narrative that grew out of that moment and led to who you are today
- Emphasize your interests and passions.
- Share your unique interests and passions that make you stand out above everyone else
- Talk about other experiences that don't fit into the traditional professional/academic story, but do add to your profile
- This is a great place to establish common ground with the interview in order to establish a personal relationship
Pitfalls You Must Avoid
- Do not get too comfortable and over step your boudaries. Keep religion, ethnicity, and politics out of the conversation. You want to speak in a conversational but professional manner.
- Do not talk about your high school experiences. Unless "the experience that started it all" happened in high school, leave it out.
- Do not babble, jump from topic to topic, or start sharing your experiences like a laundry list. You want to form all this information into a coherent, structured story that you can tell in two minutes.

Davis forcing himself into roster talks
Big right-hander making run at rotation, long-reliever role
By Jenifer Langosch / MLB.com
General manager Neal Huntington characterized Davis as on the outside looking in when it comes to the final two open rotation spots. Some combination of Ross Ohlendorf, Jeff Karstens and Virgil Vasquez will likely assume those two vacancies. But Davis is presenting himself as an intriguing bullpen option should the Pirates decide to carry a long reliever in the 'pen.
The Pirates are still unsure as to whether or not they will carry a defined long reliever to start the season. That decision will hinge partially on how confident Huntington and manager John Russell are with the starting rotation's ability to pitch deep into games. But should the Pirates decide to carry a long reliever, it is setting up to be Davis' job.
"He's doing some good things," Russell said. "He's progressing nicely. He's throwing well. We're going to keep giving him an opportunity to go out there."
Davis, who spent most of the 2008 season as a starter, got a bit of a late start in extending his arm out this spring because of a slight hamstring issue. In the past week, though, Davis has made three two-inning appearances and will continue to add to that innings length during the next two weeks.
If Davis does not make the Major League bullpen, he will start the season in the rotation at Triple-A Indianapolis. That would provide the Pirates with the option of calling Davis up to Pittsburgh if injuries or ineffectiveness in the big league rotation creates the need for the addition of a starter.
"We still like Jason and feel like he can be a solid Major League pitcher for us," Huntington said.
After allowing one run in his first spring appearance, Davis has strung together 10 scoreless innings in his last seven appearances. During that span, he has allowed just six hits and walked two. He has eight strikeouts.
Davis has benefited from work that he has done with pitching coach Joe Kerrigan to limit the movement of his head during his delivery. The 6-foot-6 right-hander had a tendency to let his head fly out toward first base, which in turn has affected his command in the past. Repetition of a more stable motion has already noticeably improved the quality of his pitches.
"He's got to rely more on command now than he did," Russell said. "Sometimes that's an adjustment for a pitcher who is used to raring back to let it go. He's made nice progress."
When Davis arrived at Spring Training, it looked like he was an outside shot at best to make the big league team out of camp. That wasn't necessarily a result of anything Davis had or hadn't done. It was more of a consequence of the numerous starting candidates the Pirates had.
But that starting list has been whittled down, and there has been some disappointment in the fact that a number of those rotation candidates haven't performed that well this spring. All combined, it has Davis garnering a closer look.
Davis made 14 appearances (four starts) for the Pirates last season. He finished 2-4 with a 5.29 ERA, issuing 17 walks and striking out 13 in 34 innings. His numbers were better as a starter than they were out of the bullpen.
Davis spent the majority of the season, though, in Triple-A, where he went 6-9 with a 4.41 ERA in 21 appearances (20 starts). The Pirates non-tendered Davis this offseason to avoid having to potentially go to an arbitration hearing with the one-time Cleveland prospect. The club then signed him to a Minor League contract in January.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Raising Special Kids, Phoenix, AZ, USA
Raising Special Kids has been an invaluable resource for me and my family. Through the years I have attended programs that they have put on and have learned so much. Whenever I need help or a resource, they are the first call I make because I know they will have the answer. They helped when we were doing our first IEP when my daughter was entering kindergarten and now that I need help on transition and guardianship matters, they are the agency that I know I can count on. They are a staple in my life and it is so nice to know that they are here for our family and everyone that needs help with their special needs children.

text: Do you guys remember in part 1, when the 5 man cell of shikamaru, naruto, kiba, neji and chouji had to split up one by one to face each of the sound 5 in order to buy time for the rest of the team. Chouji was the first to fight jiroubou and that was the first time we were introduced to the butterfly wings followed by neji facing off with kidomaru and so forth... I feel that Kishi is going to follow the same order again to show the growth of the characters. We have already been exposed to chouji and his growth, and if I'm correct, neji will be next followed by kiba (BUT I am not so sure of shikamaru because of the fact he has been getting a lot of exposure). I had this in my head ever since I read back on the old chapters. What do you guys think?

Greetings from the Center for Teaching & Learning.
Last month I participated in a webinar sponsored by the TLT Group titled Understanding and Working with Student Resistance to Active Learning. This was a very informative, interactive and engaging webinar, from which I learned a lot. It was an hour long on a Friday afternoon and it was well within my budget; in fact it was free!
The webinar was offered as part of their Friday Live! series, all of which are offered free of charge to anyone who wants to sign up. You'll find an announcement of upcoming events as well as past, archived sessions by following that link. I was impressed enough with the session that I became a member. (That too was within my budget!) That gives me access to archived copies of the webinars, so if you peruse that list (scroll down that page linked above) and find a past session that interests you that you'd like to watch, let me know and I'll set you up. And if you think you'd benefit from a membership, let me know that too.
Until then, have a productive week 9.

CHARLESTON BATTERY Tonight, 7 p.m. Swangard Stadium Radio: TEAM 1040 TV: Shaw Records: Whitecaps (7-4-3, 13 GF, 12 GA), Battery (9-4-3, 23 GF, 14 GA) The skinny: Teitur Thordarson is hoping a five-day break has reenergized his squad, which went 0-2-2 in its last four USL-1 games. The clash against front-running Charleston is the first of six games in two weeks for the Whitecaps, who sit tied with Rochester for third place but have games in hand on everyone in the league. Whitecaps notes: Despite the week off, there are injury concerns in Vancouver's camp. Speedy right fullback Lyle Martin (leg), who has played more minutes than any Whitecap this season, and tricky wing player Justin Moose (groin) could both miss the game. Centre back Omar Jarun (hip) could give way to newcomer Wesley Charles. Forward Eddy Sebrango has five goals; the rest of the club has eight. Battery notes: Charleston is off to an impressive start but has enjoyed a home-loaded schedule so far. Including tonight, they play 11 of their final 14 games on the road, where they are 1-2-1 thus far. The Battery have scored the most goals in the league with former New York Red Bulls striker Randi Patterson tied for second in USL-1 scoring with seven goals. Midfielder Osvaldo Alonso is a key player, too. The Battery boast former Canadian international and Whitecaps defender Mark Watson as an assistant coach. Halftime: The Province's own metro news editor Paul Chapman will be in net as the TEAM 1040 morning show hosts Barry MacDonald and Scott Rintoul, and producer Trevor Martins, compete in the third event of their Morning Show Pentathlon: The penalty kick shootout. © The Vancouver Province 2008 Previous Next

Hey guys, I check the option to hide the user icon on Start8 and yet, the user icon shows. Not only this, but it's the same ugly white frame no matter what WB skin I run.
Please help.
Happens here too Jim, that's why I turn off the user icon in SKS8 when designing a skin. Not only that, but for my personal tastes too, I don't like them.
I've been wondering how to do that. User icons are fugly. How to?
On windows7 you should be able to do that in SKS under edit start menu and taskbar/edit startmenu/top part/ now on the bottom click ---extra settings---scroll a bit down and find ---Hide user picture--- enable it and save. On Win8 there is a simple option in Start8 for it ---configurate - show profile pictureA thrid solution to hide the userpicture is called "NoUserPicture" i used it on windows7 never had a problem with it. **Since you guys use windows8 in combination with Start8 and Windowblinds you have to do both settings (in Skinstudio and Start8) that the white frame disappears. So hide it for the choosen skin in SKS and then hide it in start8 and the User picture will be gone.

For each skin...right?
Good practice.
I believe this should not be like this since we want to keep it simple... and user friendly this is far from simple for such a small change... I will address this issue to support so we can get a fix for it... Edit: just have seen that this topic is under the category support now i have to leave out the sarcasm
Benmanns, I appreciate the input, but yes, the point of this thread is to point out to support/developers that Start8 is SUPPOSED to remove the user icon, but it doesn't work.
It would be a real pain in the ass to have to manually remove the icon via SKS for every skin I use.
The SKS resolution works, but Start8 is supposed to do it easier. Please fix Start8, support.
point is that the two apps should communicate and share info but that seems not to be working
So far we have not been able to duplicate this here.
For anyone having this issue, it is probably best to open a support ticket with us if you have not already.
Please download and run the following utility:
This is a tool that we use to gather relevant log files and basic information about your computer. Once the utility finishes running, please attach the .zip file it creates on the desktop when you create a ticket here.
Also, please reply with any screenshots that may help illustrate your issue(s)(if applicable).
That seems to be a direct download link, if this is a problem, mods please disable it.
Might I restate the obvious to ask, you are trying it with WB running, correct?
Start8 removes the user icon fine without WB running. Maybe there should be an option in WB Config?

Jennifer Lawrence In New Dior Ads Makes Sultry Private Eye A Thing
Photo: Tumblr
From the look of pretty much every picture she's ever been in, Jennifer Lawrence can do no wrong. To further awe the world with the beauty of their Miss Dior spokeswoman, Dior had photographer Mikael Jansson shoot the sometimes Katniss Everdeen for a spread in Dior Magazine's Fall/Winter issue. The magazine is a bi-annual publication that gives readers a glimpse into the inner world of Dior.
In the spread, Jansson shot Lawrence in a variety of the brand's menswear looks, which, coupled with the use of black and white photography, gave a sort of film noir/hard-boiled private eye theme to the shoot. Thankfully the Dior stylist used a light hand on her makeup, allowing her fresh-faced features to shine through in sultry simplicity. What's interesting is that she appears to know something we don't. Perhaps the answer to that frustratingly unsolved mystery; perhaps something else entirely.
One thing we know for sure, though, is that Miss Dior knew exactly what it was doing by choosing Jennifer Lawrence as their spokesperson. Every move the girl makes seems to be set on some glowing backdrop, and her star is only going to get brighter with the release of the second Hunger Games movie on November 22.
