Looking back on the relative ease of doing this trip closer to home vs. the difficulties and cost of a Wind River trip, maybe we got what we paid for, but the die was cast.
It was a plan that seemed to make a lot of sense at the time. Instead of spending a day getting to and another day getting back from our usual destinations in the Wind River Range, we'd drive a mear two hours from home to reach our starting point. No motels, no filling the gas tank multiple times and no long approach drives over little used backcountry roads. Definitely made a lot of sense.
The Rawah Wilderness in the southern portion of the Medicine Bow Mountains of Northern Colorado was the 2010 destination for our annual weeklong backpacking/fishing/climbing expedition. Our plan was to traverse the wilderness from north to south, climb some peaks including North Rawah and sample the fishing possiblities in between.
Multiple issues arose which caused us to change our starting point a couple times as well as our starting date. Because we were locked into the third week of August, my son Chris made a decision to leave us mid-week to prepare for the start of classes at Colorado State University the following Monday. Personally, I was OK with late start date thinking fewer mosquitoes would be nice for a change and that the crowds of mid-summer might be gone. I was less than thrilled about Chris leaving us, but it was his call.
After all that, our plan finally set. The three of us, (Chris, Mark and myself, along with Chris' dog Chewy) would set out from the Rawah TH on August 14th, Chris would head back out on the 18th and Mark and I would emerge from the wilderness at the Blue Lake TH on the 21st.
Rawah TH to the Blue Lake TH ~ August 14th - August 21st, 2010
Chris, his dog Chewy and I set out from my house at 7:20, arrived at the Rawah TH at 9:30 after grabbing breakfast on the run and picking up Mark. The small parking lot was all ready filled, but we squeezed in and were on the trail by 10.
Saw only a few folks on the trail that day which we took as a good sign.
Settled on a campsite around 3 PM that looked workable and was in compliance with the 200 ft rules. It was a pretty shitty little spot in a maze of deadfall, but we made it work.
Figured we had traveled 5.1 miles and gained 1,500 ft. The weather had been near perfect though it did become increasingly cloudy as the day went on. But, no rain fell nor thunder was heard, so it was all good. Dinner filled our shrunken stomaches and after a nip or two we turned in. Mark's need to answer the call in the middle of the night nearly got him lost in the timber maze. Couldn't have been a pretty sight.
Sunday, August 15th
Dawned cloudless and a chilly 39 degrees F. Got packed up and on the trail by 9:45.
Ran into a few more people on the trail this day before we reached our destination at Rawah Lake #1. We took our packs off near the south end of #1 to search for a suitable campsite for our three day base camp. Heading up the Little Rainbow drainage we split up, using the two-ways to communicate. I ran into a couple of female backpackers coming down the trail from the McIntyre Lakes. Had no way of knowing when I radioed back to Mark and Chris, telling them what I'd seen, including some detail on the female backpackers, that Chris was standing in front of them with his radio turned up all the way. I still didn't know it when I came bebopping down the trail and ran into Chris, who was still speaking with them. Chris clued me in afterward. Whoooops!
We ended up choosing a spot close to the north end of #1. Got camp set, had a hot lunch and then did our own thing. Chris and Chewy took a nap, Mark read (fell asleep) in his chair and me being the ADD type, went fishing. Since the brookies in the lake were quite small and would only take a high floating fly, I moved to the outlet stream and found the fish a little bigger and less picky.
The third week in August brings fewer people into the Rawahs, as I had hoped. The main reason that I'd rarely ventured into this wilderness over the years, was its reputation as a crowded place. On this sunny August afternoon we saw only four people. Not exactly crowded.
The weather held and we enjoyed a pleasant afternoon and evening. An excellent meal of Beef Stroganoff and pita bread put us back on track. Chewy seemed to be handling the altitude well and drinking lots of water, which was a concern during last year's trip into the Winds. Chris brought some doggy re-hydration pills that turned plain water into a broth that Chewy seemed to like.
Monday, August 16th
I rolled out of the tent at 6:40, to mild temperatures and cloudy skies. Temp was 51 F. Not long after I awoke the wind kicked up, blowing fiercely at times and the temperature started dropping. After putting on some more clothes, I took a bunch of pictures of the lake near the outlet stream.
I decided to try some fishing on the creek below since it was after 9 and nobody else was up yet. Fish must not have been up yet either as I caught nada! Chris finally got up followed shortly by Mark. Worsening intestinal problems had caused Mark to make three trips into the night. We were concerned enough to tell Mark that we could bail-out at any time and that the call was his to make. With Chris planning on leaving us on Wednesday and taking my car, our remaining options would be few. Given Mark's condition, Chris and I figured that climbing North Rawah Peak on Tuesday would be out of the question.
We spent the rest of the morning doing a little of this and that. Mark and I fished the creek, catching some bigger (8") brookies. I managed to land a monster (11") greenback cutthroat. The weather seemed to be following the NOAA forecast with clouds thickening to the west. A trip to Little Rainbow Lake seemed like a good idea to me, in spite of the theatening skies, to check out possible approaches to North Rawah Pk just in case we ended up going in the morning. Mark and Chris were content with staying in camp.
I hiked to the McIntyre Lake Trail, taking it west, then followed a less traveled path to Little Rainbow Lake.
After making the south end of the lake and spotting what I thought was the best route to get us above timberline, an intense thunderstorm hit. Was on the radio with Mark when the shit hit the fan. Big raindrops began hitting me as I headed down. Before I got too far the weather got crazy. I frantically dug into my pack for raingear as hail pelted my back.
By the time I got my gear on, the hail was insane, and I was lovin' it! Love being able to deal with a little adversity as long as I've got the right equipment.
Walked back to camp following the whitened path covered by 2 to 3 inches of hail. Not surprisingly, Chris, Chewy and Mark were all snug in their tents when I arrived in camp and they didn't sound too thrilled about coming outside. Since my gear was all wet, I opted to do some clean-up work in camp and otherwise hangout under the tarp, once I removed the pile of hail that had accumulated on top of it. Tried to keep the ground underneath the tarp dry but it was a losing battle. Chris came out to help get camp back in order and after it was done, we retired to the relative comfort of the tarp. As it turned out, it was a great time for a little rum, whiskey and a cigar.
The rain finally stopped and with skies clearing, our normal camp life resumed. Had everybody's favorite, Pasta Primavera for dinner and life was good again. Once Chris coaxed the fire to life, it even got a little better as our chilled bones got a chance to warm.
Tuesday, August 17th
When we got up, neither Chris nor I figured we'd be doing any climbing based on what Mark had told us the morning before. We sat around drinking coffee, not being in any particular hurry to do anything when Mark announced that he was ready to climb. Long story short, we hit the trail at 9:30, with our sights set on North Rawah Peak.
The weather looked perfect, not a cloud in the sky as we set out, following the route I had followed the day before to Little Rainbow Lake. We climbed quickly from the south end of the lake at 10,838 ft, to a broad, gently sloped bench at 11,600 ft.
After taking a short break we headed south, aiming for the rock tipped ridge that lay between us and the peak.
Unfortunately, I led us a little too far to the east so that when we peered over the ridge we found a steep drop-off instead of what we expected. After drifting west, we cleared the ridge, losing altitude to reach a large, flat area below a saddle that was between our peak and it's northern neighbor at 11,800 ft.
Once across the flats, we made our made up the steep north slope to the eastern aspect of the peak at 12,100 ft.
From there it was a relatively short scramble to the summit. Chris, with Chewy in tow, took a more direct, steeper course up the rock pile that led to the summit while Mark and I opted for a slightly less steep route about 75 yards south.
Numerous clouds hung over the range though none looked particularly threatening to Mark and I. Chris had a different take on the situation, thinking we should head down immediately after summiting. He has a great fear of lightning which is not a bad thing, but sometimes it consumes his every thought. We stayed ten minutes on the summit and dealt with nothing but high winds.
We made a decision to take what looked to be an easier, more direct route down the mountain via the cirque above Rawah Lake #3. It was a good decision that got us back to camp by 3 PM. Turned in early not long after dinner. Wind blew hard during the night. I was a little sad knowing that Chris would leave us in the morning. He planned on hitting the trail by 8 AM so he set his alarm for 7.
Wednesday, August 18th
Got up with the alarm had some coffee and started packing. I made a decision to let Chris take our tent, not wanting to add all that weight to my pack. Chris and Mark tried to talk me into keeping it, but I wanted no part of it, preferring to rely instead on our plastic ground cloth and the tarp. It had been a long while since I'd gone so minimalist, but it seemed like the best way to go.
And so it went. Chris left at 9 with Chewy at his side. He planned to hike all the way back to the TH then drive my vehicle back to Fort Collins. For Mark and I, this was in a sense, our point of no return. Our way out lay 14 miles south, at the Blue Lake TH, where we hoped our wives would be waiting us on Saturday, the 21st.
About 50 minutes after Chris left, Mark and I hit the trail with our goal being the Twin Crater Lakes area on the south side of Grassy Pass, about four and a half miles south.
The first part of the climb up Grassy Pass was the steepest but it wasn't too bad as far as passes go, a mear 500 ft elevation gain to the top. Took many pictures of the magnificent views along the way. The weather was perfect!
We saw no one on the trail until we started down the south side of the pass. First group we encountered consisted of a volunteer leading 4 llamas and 2 blind hikers with guides. A couple of women on horseback and a lone female hiker cutting switchbacks rounded out the crowd.
Not long after dinner, the weather started changing. Skies darkened and soon the rain came. Not thunderstorms but a more general rain that varied from a drizzle to a wind driven gale.
Before Mark got into his tent, he just had to say, "you should have kept the tent" one more time. I had a bad feeling that he might be right. But, as it were, I had to persevere and make the best of it. So that's what I did. My space under the tarp did not allow much room for error so I found myself constantly tightening the tie downs and trenching the perimeter.
Just before dark, the storm took a turn. The rain and wind intensified, with the wind coming from the south. I had to make some serious adjustments as my down bag was getting wet. Mark yelled out something that I couldn't make out, but I guessed it was about coming into his tent. I made adjustments, dropping the edge of the tarp on the south side from about two feet high to 10 inches above the ground and that seemed to do the trick.
Don't think I really fell asleep till the wee hours of the morning which is strange considering that I turned in before 8 PM. I remember looking at the time at one point in this long night and it was 1:34 AM. A combination of things kept me awake-worrying about the rain getting my sleeping bag wet and listening to the sounds of the night. It had been many years since I slept without the "insulation" of a tent and laying there under that tarp I learned that, in spite of my advancing years, my hearing is still good enough to hear a titmouse fart and I heard plenty of em'. Every little sound jolted me awake. Bad night, to say the least.
Thursday, August 19th
I was glad to get out from under the tarp after a tough night. Fortunately, I'd managed to stay dry.
Once I got my muscles moving and had a little coffee my outlook improved considerably. Unfortunately, the weather didn't. Rain continued off and on with periods of wind driven fog in between. Mark didn't have a good night either, suffering with a migraine headache.
So, in the spirit of trying to keep a stiff upper lip, we marched off after breakfast, bound for the Twin Crater Lakes to check out the fishing. A mile or so hike with a stiff climb at the end, brought us to the first lake. The larger, upper lake lay right behind the first, only a few feet higher. In better weather it must be a spectacular place, but with the clouds only slightly above our heads, it's beauty was severely muted.
Stll, we pressed on, hoping against hope that the fishing might be decent in spite of the weather. It wasn't. Mark saw one fish raise, I saw no sign and had no hits.
We stayed there for an hour before heading back down. Along the way we stopped to admire and photograph a beautiful series of cascades flowing down the slope below Rockhole Lake. Couldn't escape the thought of SPer Nelson and Jude's ordeal at that same lake some years back. It's a long way to be from a road if you need medical assistance. Fortunately for us, we needed none.
Made it back to camp around 1:30ish and had a nice hot ramen lunch, finishing just before the next batch of rain hit. Mark fled to his tent, and back to "The Count of Monte Cristo" while I crawled back under my tarp, to write this in my journal. To break the monotony, I would write for awhile then checked the time and temperature then write some more.
At 3:15 the temp was 51 F. Watched a cow moose and calf move across the open area a short distance below our camp.
3:41 still raining, still under the tarp- temp 50 F.
4:11 still raining, temp 49 F.
"It's times like this that try men's souls", I thought. And times like this that make me wonder, "What the hell am I doing here??"
Finally, the rain tapered off and I ventured out from under the tarp again. With the falling temps my feet started getting cold so I put on my boots and took a walk in the forest with the thought that I'd gather some firewood. "Just what the doctor ordered", I thought, "A nice, warm fire would definitely cheer things up around here." Wood was hard to come by in this well used campsite, doubly hard when everything is wet. I scounged what I could, and was feeling quite proud of the small load I hauled back to camp when the rain started in again.
It's now 5:14, temp 46 F and raining coming down hard. Mark is nestled in his tent, still reading I presume. I'm not liking the way things are going and I'm missing Chris a lot. With him and Chewy gone, the dynamics of the trip are completely changed and I'm struggling with it.
Mark finally popped out of his tent, apologizing for not being very good company, citing his continuing migraine. Thankfully, his headache was beginning to fade. Had Beef Teriyaki with rice for dinner. Sat on a log under a thick fir tree and enjoyed a bit of libations and a cigar before turning in. Still raining.
I set the tarp low to minimize moisture invasions and pulled my head into the sleeping bag to shut out the outside world as much as I could and it worked! I slept a good sleep!
Friday, August 20th
I was relieved to awaken and see clear blue skies as I peered out from under the tarp.
Mark was all ready up and at em' when I crawled out of my bag. After some coffee and breakfast, we spread out what needed to be dried in the sun and started packing. Got on the trail a little late (10:30ish), but we didn't have far to go and, for the most part, it was all downhill. A series of switchbacks got us down the steep sections after which we hit the West Branch Trail. Took a slight detour down the trail to take a lunch break near the West Branch Bridge.
Chugged back up the trail to its junction with the Blue Lake Trail where we dropped our packs and went looking for a campsite. Mark found a nice one a short way off the Blue Lake Trail. Once camp was set, Mark plunked himself down in a sunny spot and jumped back into "The Count". I grabbed some Kool-Aid, my piece of ensolite, my journal and found my own place in the sun, sitting on the last log bridge we'd crossed. Sat there writing this, looking at my map, sippin' Kool-Aid, thinking it doesn't get any better than this. But such moments are fleeting, especially in the high mountains in the latter half of August and, after about 40 minutes, the shadows were lengthening and it was time to go.
Mark was still sitting in the same spot, still reading when I approached. We discussed what we needed to do and got to it. First job was to find a suitable tree to hang our food bags. Had a tough time finding a good tree. The best one we found needed some modification. Drawing on my old winter camping experiences in Pennsylvania, I threw a rock tied to a rope over branches that were in the way and pulled them down. I guess I forgot that when you do that, the branch comes flying at you at a high rate of speed and that's exactly what happened. The first one smacked me hard in the back of my right hand, giving me a nasty little puncture wound. Didn't seem like a big deal at the time but I would learn the next day that the impact also bruised the bone in the back of my hand, and that would turn out to be a bigger deal. After that incident, I got better at jumping out of the way and we were able to hang the food bags high.
When that was done we gathered a little firewood, pumped some water and began to prepare dinner. Our food supplies were almost gone and all we had left was black beans and rice. This was our "Pot Luck" meal and was meant to include some trout, but sadly, there were none in the vacinity. Our meal was decent, but decidedly gruel-like.
The good weather held and we had a pleasant evening sitting around the fire, making our packs a little lighter for the next day's journey. We'd start our last day by climbing to Blue Lake Pass and end it at the Blue Lake TH, a distance of 7.2 miles. Not like me to plan the last day of the trip to be our hardest, but that's how it worked out. Our plan was to be on the trail by 8:30 and to make the TH at 12:30. Suffice it to say, it was an ambitious plan.
Saturday, August, 21st
Alarms went off at 7 AM as planned. Packed it up and were on the trail a little later than planned at 8:50. Our climb to the pass would be 900+ feet in a little over a mile. Always like to get the big climbs done at the beginning of the day. Once over the pass, our hike would be all downhill. Sounded like a piece of cake.
We blazed up the lower sections of the trail to the pass under cloudless skies. First half of the climb wasn't too bad - second half was a little more in your face. In spite of the grade and downed timber on the trail, we made it to the top at 10 AM. We probably spent too much time relaxing on top - taking a half hour for photos and replenishment. At any rate, we were back on the trail, trying to move fast to meet our goal of 12:30 at the TH. Mark suggested we push it as far as we could without taking a break. We pushed on.
Ran into a lot more people than we'd seen previously, that were heading up to the lake and the pass. One of the hikers we'd passed said it was supposed to be 100 F in Fort Collins this day. It was starting to feel like it! I had to quit using the trekking pole with my injured right hand as it was becoming quite painful. Strapped the pole on my pack and pressed on. The pain got worse with my hand dangling at my side so I starting draping it over my Platypus tube, which made a sort of a sling and that felt alot better.
The one trekking pole thing slowed my pace considerably, particularly on the steeper downhill sections. Plodding along, I tried to move as quickly as possible but I'm afraid that between the heat, lack of breaks and the effects of my hand injury, I wasn't moving too fast. Mark gave me words of encouragement, which helped a little.
At 12:10, my radio jumped to life. Couldn't hear it very well or get a response due to still being two to three miles from the TH, but I could tell it was my Lynda and that was a good sign! We trudged onward, hoping to see the bridge ahead, which would mean a little less than two miles to go. We finally crossed the bridge and climbed a short hill that put us on the old 4WD road that would eventually lead us to the TH. As we got closer, we were able to communicate via the two-ways so we knew our wives were waiting at the TH with lots of goodies. The remainder of the trek took on that familiar "it's never going to end" feel until we saw two beautiful women hiking up the trail towards us. What a sight (and smell) we must have been, but in spite of that they seemed as glad to see us as we were to see them.
Once we reached the TH parking lot it was party time - Tailgate style. Real food washed down with real beer in the company of some real fine women! Not the same feel as the Lander Bar on a Saturday night, but I wouldn't have traded it for anything.

where did it go?
So I was on my way home from work and felt a big bang under my 90 YJ.When I finally found what made the noise. I was shocked, seems my rear driveshaft no longer is under my Jeep. Looked all over the street for it.No where to be found.On further inspection the slip yok snapped off and the u joint at the axle let go.I had no indication that I was having a u joint issue just let go.lucky for me is that the transfer case housing is not damaged or the yok at the axle.now trying to find those pieces are becoming a problem.
All I got to say is luckily I was not on the highway when this happened.
You should be able to find those parts easily on Eaby....and I think there's a Jeep guy in Mass who parts out vehicles, too.
Make sure you don't drive it around with an empty t-case. Once the slip yoke comes out on a stock NP231 the fluid will dump out (unless you have an SYE).
I'd check craigslist as most folks go for an SYE.
if you HAVE to drive it you can cut the bottom off of a soda bottle and duct tape it in place.. be sure to check the fluid level before you drive it any further.
No I don't have to drive till I get the parts .I bid on one from ebay .The shaft of the slip yok was still there so I didn't lose much fluid out the back of the t-case.Don't you know that it just started to snow on top of it all.
Sounds like what mine did, although I hadn't been going fast so the driveshaft remained attached to the rear axle yoke. Makes a big BANG! indeed.
I hope your slip yoke isn't wedged in the housing like mine was after it went boom. For myself, it was a PITA to remove the tail cone housing with the slip yoke sleeve wedged in it.
I can get the rest of the slip yok shaft out. Right now it is holding the fluid in from leaking out.I have a bid on one from ebay so waiting to see if I get that one.
fyi there are many different driveshaft lengths for our jeeps.. I had my old one that needed repalcing due to u joint failure and it was still hard to find a match at a large jeep junkyard.
Can't imagine one just breaking. I would think something locked up that caused this to break in the first place.
I have a shaft from my 2.5l 5 speed if it will help, I am on my phone so I can't seem to look up your jeeps specs.

Physical Dedicated Servers
Websites and internet-facing services are becoming increasingly content rich and interactive, and shared hosting for some businesses can be too inflexible, Physical Dedicated Servers provide an alternative solution.
A Physical Dedicated Server allows you to unlock almost limitless flexibility in the breadth of permutations of setup choices, while benefiting from greatly enhanced performance. We offer many different Physical Dedicated Server packages depending on your business requirement.
CORETX's Physical Dedicated Servers are exclusively for your use only, and are pre-installed with your choice of operating system from our supported list. When we have received your order, the server will be imaged with the chosen operating system. These images are updated regularly to ensure each new server arrives up to date, securely supporting all the features you may need.
How It Works
For our Windows based dedicated servers we enable the Remote Desktop feature, and for our Linux and BSD based dedicated servers we enable Secure Shell. You then receive the administrative credentials and can log in and get started right away.
Your connection to our network and the rest of the Internet is a completely clean pipe, free from any blocked services, traffic shaping, or contention; the size of pipe you take is the amount you get.
Hardware packages
We have good working relationships with all of the major equipment vendors, this allows us to offer a range of standard off the shelf server configurations, entry level/mid range/high performance, or we can consider bespoke configuration if this is preferred.
When you take the service from us, you are getting completely exclusive use of the physical server hardware. Unlike in a shared hosting or a virtual dedicated server environment, the complete performance of the hardware is available for your sole use. We will simply install your choice of operating system and then either pass the administrative login details to you or take on the management as part of an ongoing managed service offer if this is required.
Operating Systems
We can procure, install and if required support all of the major operating systems that you may require. In many cases we simply install a standard 'out of the box' image onto these new servers, and then allow configuration to take place post install. We can also place these servers within our Lifecycle program, which enables us to create and deploy customer specific software images so that they are all identical. Furthermore, Lifecyle allows us to deploy patches, upgrades and new software elements across the entire platform lifecylce as part of a managed service.

Summary of Collection: General authority for these data collection
activities is granted under U.S. Code Title 7, Section 2204 which
specifies that ``The Secretary of Agriculture shall procure and
preserve all information concerning agriculture which he can obtain * *
* by the collection of statistics * * *'' The primary objective of the
National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is to provide data
users with timely and reliable agricultural production and economic
statistics, as well as environmental and specialty agricultural related
statistics. To accomplish this objective, NASS relies heavily on the
use of sample surveys statistically drawn from ``List Sampling Frame.''
The List Sampling Frame is a database of names and addresses, with
control data, that contains the components values from which these
samples can be drawn.
Need and Use of the Information: Data from criteria surveys are
used to provide control data for new records on the list sampling
frame. This information is utilized to define the size of operation,
define sample populations and establish eligibility for the Census of
Agriculture. New names and addresses of potential farms are obtained on
a regular basis from growers association, other government agencies and
various outside sources. This information is used to develop efficient
sample designs, which allows NASS the ability to draw reduced sample
sizes from the originally large universe populations.
Description of Respondents: Farms.
Number of Respondents: 174,000.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion.
Total Burden Hours: 42,576.

General Comments
I have owned my Peugeot Speedfight scooter for about 3 months. I am happy with the riding position even though I am 6ft 3. I am a bit concerned with the amount of oil it is using but other than that its a great bike.

Judge Ken Starr: Chapel Remarks, March 21, 2012
Judge Ken Starr: Chapel Remarks, March 21, 2012
March 21, 2012
Good morning to all of you on this, the 25th day of the 40-day season of Lent - the day of the Ecclesiastical Equinox.
In the midst of March Madness, with so many blessings to count here at Baylor, including our Lady Bears' victory last evening over the Florida Gators and that today is Baylor Football's Pro Day, we pause to reflect that we are now only two weeks away from the week the Christian world of the West calls "holy."
We first go back in time. The year - Anno Domini 325 ("the year of our Lord") - 1,687 short years ago. Under the guidance of Constantine, Emperor of the far-flung Roman Empire, a council of Christian bishops convened at Nicaea - in modern-day Turkey, not far from Istanbul - to address issues arising from a theological movement within Christianity called Arianism. (We'll leave further detail to your Christian Heritage professors).
From this historic convocation in Nicaea came the original Nicene Creed: "We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ....." and the Creed goes on.
The beautiful Nicene Creed stands as a towering landmark in the centuries-long march of the Christian church. But more relevantly for our purposes here this morning, the Council of Nicaea took another important action. Those early bishops established the now-traditional date for Easter as the first Sunday - now, get ready - after the full moon following the vernal equinox.
Translated into everyday parlance, that means this very day, March 21st - even though the equinox usually occurs, astronomically speaking, on March 20 - yesterday.
Before the bishops' unifying action, Easter had been observed in the wake of the Jewish calendar's Passover. As with any calendar, a particular date will, of course, fall on any of the seven days of the week. Think of Christmas, or the Fourth of July - or your own birthday. Our Christian forbears naturally wished to celebrate Easter on a Sunday - the day of Christ Jesus's resurrection - the morning of the empty tomb.
That pivotal gathering at Nicaea ushered in an important uniformity that had evaporated over the years as more and more Christian communities planned their Easter celebrations. In short, from the year 325 A.D. onward, the Christian church would celebrate Easter corporately, together as one global community.
In the Christian calendar, Easter - as you know - marks the end of Lent, the forty-day period of fasting and prayer. This season reminds us, of course, of Jesus' 40 days in the Judean wilderness following his baptism by John. This six-week period (now drawing toward a close) calls us as Christians to reflect on Christ's sacrifice - his passion and his death. It reminds us, as German theologian Dietrich Bonheoffer graphically stated, that the Christian way is not the path of "cheap grace." It is, to the contrary, very costly. Think of Christian martyrs, such as Bonheoffer himself, who died at the hands of the Nazi regime in Germany.
The powerful symbolism of Easter draws, in turn, on the Jewish feast of Passover. In many languages, the words for "Easter" and "Passover" are closely related. Likewise, as Christians, we identify Jesus with the Jewish symbol of the sacrificial Passover Lamb.
Thus, Easter points us even farther back in time than the Cross of Jesus, back over an entire millennium to the Exodus - when God miraculously delivered the people of Israel from Egyptian slavery. In looking to the symbolism of the Passover Lamb and the Exodus, Christians are reminded that we too have been liberated, called to what the Apostle Paul described as a new life of freedom through a unique and unparalleled sacrificial death.
The realm where science and God intersect
At Baylor, we are called to be ambassadors of that new life. To that end, we gather in Chapel to learn, to know, to discern. We come humbly to reflect on truths that transcend lecture halls, and extend beyond the world of the laboratory. We gather together in community to reflect on incalculable certainties.
Dr. Francis Collins, the world-renowned geneticist, Director of the National Institutes of Health, and outspoken evangelical Christian, deeply understands this important Christian principle. When deciphering the human genome, this world-renowned physician and scientist understands that he is examining God's blueprints - what he calls "The Language of God." Science is not only a tool for understanding the world around us, it is more. Science is a language that helps Dr. Collins, as a physician and scientist, read the works of God.
Dr. Collins writes this:
"Science's domain is to explore nature. God's domain is in the spiritual world... the mind must find a way to embrace both realms."
Happily, for our purposes here in Chapel, today - the ecclesiastical equinox- is a perfect day to embrace both realms: scientific and spiritual. The vernal equinox marks a brief moment in time - a moment at which the sun is poised directly above the Equator. It's a day of transition from winter to spring in the Northern Hemisphere, and the days near an equinox are characterized by a miraculous astronomical balance. Because of the Earth's tilted axis and its current orbital position relative to the sun, on this day, the planet experiences near-equal amounts of day and night. We call such a day an equilux (by the way, Waco's true equilux was on St. Patrick's Day Eve, March 16, while you were enjoying spring break).
This moment marks an astronomical transition, an earthly rebirth. For the first time in six long months, the sun is now beginning to cast its rays anew on the long-dark North Pole. The vernal equinox reminds us of the sheer power of the sun's rays falling on our planet home.
The sun - along with Planet Earth's dynamic, ever-shifting position in relation to our galaxy's life-giving star - is truly a wondrous, mysterious gift from our Creator God. As we learn as schoolchildren, if the Earth were located much closer to the sun, the sun's heat would be too intense to sustain life. The reverse would be true if the Earth were located much farther away. Even the sun's light is a life-giving gift - a physical parallel to Jesus's words as recorded in John's Gospel:
"I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." (John 8:12)
We at Baylor are likewise charged to be bearers of that life-giving light before a humanity that all too frequently dwells in darkness. (Matthew 5:16)
Examples of the Faith-Science embrace at Baylor
Engineers with a Mission
In the moments that remain, let's now bring Jesus's charge close to home - right here on campus. One of many Baylor examples is our chapter of Engineers with a Mission. These students and faculty members understand this charge, and given their particular talents, they likewise understand God's mighty gift of the sun as the sustaining force of physical life. With that knowledge, Baylor engineers - students and faculty - have harnessed the sun's power to help communities in need.
Ryan McGhee, a Baylor graduate who served on a mission in Honduras, put it this way:
"It's an act of worship for me. I have been given a specific skill set for engineering work and while I'm not the type of person who can get up in front of a church group and play music, I can sit behind a desk and do calculations. Hopefully I can bring glory to God that way."
Through their work, Ryan and other Baylor Students have brought glory to God. And they don't just provide solar power. Engineers with a Mission have built micro-hydro generators as well, tapping into the life-giving force of water, which brings us happily back to our morning's astronomy lesson.
As we learned in basic science, the Earth's tilt creates the seasons through a global temperature imbalance. This critical imbalance - a seeming imperfection - actually helps set moisture in motion, creating our indispensible water cycle.
Living Water International and Baylor Wells
As we all know, human livelihood has always been closely connected to water. Consider the emergence of human societies. Charting the history of advanced civilizations on a map, it's crystal clear that humans have always been tied to major waterways or to the sea. Water has played a pivotal role in exploration, trade, agricultural expansion, and industrial development.
In the words of Benjamin Franklin: "When the well is dry, we learn the worth of water" (Poor Richard's Almanac)
Let me, in closing, relate the story of someone who knew well the worth of water: Harry Westmoreland, Jr. Some years ago, Harry started his own drilling company (Lone Star Bit Co.) here in Texas. Just four years later, Harry's career took a surprising turn. He traveled to Peru and met a missionary drilling water wells in that country. Inspired by this experience, Harry soon shared his newfound passion with friends at his local church. Together, they traveled to Kenya to drill water wells. From this single trip, Living Water International was born - and now helps provide clean water to the "least of these" in 25 countries around the world.
Baylor Wells Project
Let's bring this story right here to our Baylor home. When Baylor senior Dustin Williams and his friends heard about the global water crisis, they wanted to pitch in and help - by bringing the Wells Project to Baylor.
Last year, the Baylor Wells Project partnered with over 300 students and asked faculty, staff, and students to drink - for 10 days - water instead of Dr. Pepper, Gatorade, or whatever. The money saved was then donated to the Wells Project - captured in the slogan "drink water to give water."
It's little wonder that H2O is important to us as Christians. The Bible richly abounds with powerful water imagery. After all, Jesus's ministry centered around the waters of the Sea of Galilee. He was baptized in the waters of the Jordan. And he spoke frequently about water. In John's Gospel: "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them" (John 7:37-38)
As human beings, we need water to survive. Indeed, our bodies are literally 2/3rds water. It's how we are made. And so too, as spiritual beings, we, at our best, thirst for our Creator. So, in this season, let us drink deeply from the water that gives life. And as the days lengthen, may we be revitalized by the powerful energy of the Light of the World.
In these closing days of Lent, as we look ahead to Easter Sunday, reflect prayerfully on your own sense of calling. Perhaps, like me, you may have no particular talent for either engineering or well drilling, but your deepening sense of vocational mission will allow you a pathway to become a talented, winsome bearer of life-giving light, of precious living water.
Happy Ecclesiastical Equinox Day!

Jukin' It Up To Conquer Kids' Cancer: One Penny at a Time!
CHICAGO -- The Amusement and Music Operators Association is spearheading a special fundraiser to support the St. Baldrick's Foundation, a volunteer-driven charity committed to funding research to find cures for childhood cancers.
The jukebox campaign -- called "Jukin' It Up To Conquer Kids' Cancer: One Penny at a Time!" -- will involve music operators to voluntarily allow 1¢ of each paid play on their digital jukeboxes to be directed to St. Baldrick's.
The program was conceived by the AMOA Jukebox Promotion Committee, which enlisted the help of the industry's three digital music providers, AMI Entertainment Network, Ecast Inc. and TouchTunes Interactive Networks. "We are delighted to support this terrific organization," said AMOA president Gary Brewer, "and grateful to AMI, Ecast and TouchTunes for their help in making this come together."
Leading up to and during the 2011 Amusement Expo, any operator customer of the three content providers can choose to participate in the seven-day program, which will run from March 13 to 19. The association and music providers will have pledge forms at their booths during the expo, which runs from March 1 to 3 in Las Vegas. In the meantime, more information is available from AMOA at (800) 937-2662.
TouchTunes senior vice-president of sales Dan McCallister commended AMOA for its choosing to support a worthy charity like St. Baldrick's and urged TouchTunes vendors to rally behind the campaign. AMI senior vice-president of sales John Margold called the charity admirable and praised AMOA's creative fundraising approach. Ecast vice-president of network operations Scott Walker said he expects full participation from the company's channel partners.
"Operators -- AMOA members and nonmembers alike -- will soon be contacted to enlist their support of this unique, first-ever fundraising campaign to support the St. Baldrick's Foundation," said AMOA executive vice-president Jack Kelleher.
In the United States, according to the foundation, cancer kills more children than any other disease. Worldwide, 160,000 children are diagnosed with cancer annually.
A nonprofit public charity headquartered, in Monrovia, CA, St. Baldrick's Foundation is known for its head-shaving events in solidarity with kids who usually lose their hair during cancer treatments. The St. Baldrick's idea was devised in 1999 by three Irish-American reinsurance executives from New York City who turned a St. Patrick's Day party into a benefit for pediatric oncology research by shaving their heads. In 2010, St. Baldrick's raised about $22.2 million, mostly through events that shaved the heads of more than 38,000 participants, male and female.

It's not easy being green.
Just ask Vanessa, the main character in El Dorado Musical Theatre's training show "The Frog Princess." Director Rick Wilson penned the musical's story and lyrics with music by Lynne Cimorelli.
This modern spin on "The Frog Prince" takes audiences through a tale of selfishness, smartphones and extreme makeovers, inside and out. Vanessa, "daddy's little princess," finds herself craving flies and croaking after her "it's all about me" attitude catches up with her thanks to a malicious app downloaded on her new smartphone. With the help of friends, she must discover her unselfish side in order to transform back into a girl.
At a rehearsal Saturday Wilson demonstrated that it's also not easy being a director.
Wilson oversees three casts – the bullfrogs, tree frogs and leap frogs – that amount to 106 children ages 5 to 9, and he has to get everyone excited about the nine performances scheduled over three days. As the bullfrogs sang and danced at EDMT's studio in the El Dorado Hills Business Park Wilson coached. "I'd like to hear your big voice, OK?" The children sang louder. He took the time to instruct performers one-on-one, positioning them so they'll face the audience and reading lines to those who forgot.
"If they know you genuinely like them they're more likely to follow direction," he confided.
And it's clear Wilson cares. He smiles as much as the kids and has no problem singing along.
"The Frog Princess" is an homage to EDMT's very first performance, "The Frog Prince," 10 years ago. "We thought it would be fun to do a little tip of the hat," Wilson explained.
These training productions not only give younger performers a chance to experience theater, they also give EDMT pros a chance to work behind the scenes, Wilson said. EDMT veteran Spencer Borup serves as Wilson's assistant director. Savannah Argyle is the production's vocal director; Asher Dubin choreographs the dance numbers with assistant choreographer Anjie Rose Wilson's help.
All this expertise adds to the show's caliber. "We'd like (the audience) to be pleasantly surprised," Wilson said.
"The Frog Princess" opens at Pleasant Grove Middle School, 2540 Green Valley Road, on Thursday, March 31, with performances at 5:30 p.m. (bullfrogs) and 7:30 (leap frogs). April 1 performances are scheduled at 5:30 p.m. (tree frogs) and 7:30 (bullfrogs) and April 2 performances are planned at 11 a.m. (leap frogs), 1 p.m. (tree frogs), 3 (bullfrogs), 5:30 (leap frogs) and 7:30 (tree frogs).
Tickets are $8 for adults and $6 for children. For tickets and more information visit edmt.info.

BALDWIN COUNTY, Alabama -- Proposed new regulations affecting the construction of piers and boathouses on the Fish and Magnolia rivers in Baldwin County have upset residents and the County Commission.
"My wife and I have gone on sort of a crusade to make sure everyone knows about this," said Larry Murray, who lives on Fish River.
"There is not a single dock on either the Fish or Magnolia rivers that complies with this, as far as I can tell," he said.
Existing piers would be grandfathered in if the new regulations go into effect, but Murray and others said if a hurricane destroys them, homeowners replacing piers would have to comply with the restrictions to receive permits from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
Murray said he's also worried about the impact on his and his wife Linda's plans to build a new home on another piece of property on the river.
The issue first came up in March, when residents complained they couldn't get permits for boathouses larger than 100 square feet. At the time, correspondence between state and local officials showed that the restrictions were part of the Weeks Bay management plan, but apparently they were never enforced.
In late May, Commissioner Frank Burt spent more than 20 minutes criticizing United Nations Agenda 21, which he said was behind regulations like those affecting the rivers. The UN initiative promotes sustainable growth, but Burt said it was a threat to the sovereignty of the United States.
Since then, the Corps of Engineers has published proposed regulations for the two rivers within the boundaries of the Weeks Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve.
Those regulations allow a total of 920 square feet of new construction. They also limit the width of a pier to 5 feet and say the walkway must be at least 5 feet above marsh ground elevation.
Waterlines and plumbing at a boathouse would be prohibited. New boathouses could not be "habitable," and fueling facilities for boats would also be banned.
The proposed regulations, dated July 12, actually would consolidate the process of getting permits by creating a "one-stop shop," said Lisa Parker, spokeswoman for the corps' Mobile District. Currently, permits are needed from the corps, the state and the Weeks Bay Reserve.
Until recently, the county also issued permits, but Commissioner Tucker Dorsey said that requirement has been dropped.
Parker said the specific restrictions were recommended by the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources with the goals of protecting the water bottom and the Weeks Bay Reserve in general by minimizing disturbances in the area. The fuel restriction is intended to keep gasoline from being released into the rivers accidentally, she said.
As for the restriction on waterlines and plumbing, Parker said it would not prevent residents from hosing down their boats and docks or cleaning fish, because they can run hoses to the ends of the piers.
The public has until Aug. 12 to comment on the proposed regulations. The County Commission has already weighed in, voting unanimously to send a letter of opposition to the corps. Parker said it's possible that a public hearing could be called, but if not, the regulations could take effect in 30 to 90 days.
Dorsey said he's concerned about not only the impact on private property rights, but on lifestyles.
"From April through October that community lives out there in the boathouses," Dorsey said.
He said there are hundreds of piers on both rivers already, and the residents know how to take care of their property and the water. They will turn off utilities in advance of a hurricane, to prevent damage if a waterline breaks.
Dorsey said not all of the area that comes under Weeks Bay management needs the same level of protection.
"Once you get up in the rivers, that's not a museum up there," he said.
The detailed public notice of the proposed permit regulations, containing instructions on how to file public comments, can be found at www.sam.usace.army.mil/rd/reg/PN/currentPNs/SAM-2012-0791-thru-0794-DEM.pdf.

Kevin Mirallas proves the difference after rejuvenation
Everton 2 Aston Villa 1
If the talent of Kevin Mirallas has never been in question, his willingness to defy the aches and strains that are an occupational hazard of football has. For that reason, the stunning free kick he scored to win Everton a vital three points was in no way surprising; what was remarkable was that the Belgium international was still on the pitch to take it in the 85th minute, having not missed a single league game in the past 12 months.
With his mother and father watching from the Goodison Park stands, Mirallas provided a wonderful demonstration of the technique that is allowing him to emerge as one of Roberto Martínez's most reliable go-to players. The goal that decided this game was testament to Mirallas's growing…

Sometimes there's so much money in the pot that you have to call. Most of these times, the correct play is to fold and save that last bet to buy somebody dinner.
Playing a game of $20-40 limit hold 'em, action folded to me in the small blind, and I had As 10c. I raised, and the big blind called.
I got a great flop of 10h 7s 3c, fired out a bet and was called. The turn was the Js. I bet, and he called. The river was the 5d, I bet, and he raised.
Really? The 5 is what made you? What was he representing? Would he call the turn with 4-6? Would he call preflop with 10-5, 7-5 or 3-5? It's possible he had 5-5. Or he was bluffing. Or slow-playing some goofy two pair. But what could he be bluffing with?
Whatever. There was $320 in the pot, it was only $40 to call and I had a good hand, so why not call?
That's the thought process most players have in this kind of a spot, and it's a mistake. The only thought that matters when they raise you on the river, especially in limit poker, is deciding whether they are bluffing. In this spot, we were being offered a hefty price of 8-1 on our money. This means that if he is bluffing more often than one in nine times, or 11.1 percent of the time, then the play is to call. If we deduce that our opponent is bluffing fewer than one in 10 times, then the play is to fold.
Your verdict on whether your opponent is bluffing is based on history, individual hand dynamics and physical tells. Tells are a science, and based on how your opponent behaves, you can turn calls into folds and vice versa. The hand dynamics encompass what you think he may have, what he thinks you have, and what he thinks you think he has. Often this stops at level one; people simply play their hand. The gathering of information from all hands prior will help you figure out what level your opponent is on, how he plays and what his tells are.
As the pot size changes, the numbers skew. Our pot odds grow or shrink, indicating that we should call more or less often. However, people assume that nobody is folding for one more bet in a big pot, so they generally don't bluff at it. And conversely, they assume they can steal small pots easier and bluff at them more.
In this spot, I had no reason to believe that my opponent was bluffing. My read on him was that he was strong. He had no history of bluffing, nor did he view me as bluffable. He played at level one all night: I'd never seen him do anything questionable, and he was rumored to be a calling station.
I finally shrugged and threw my cards into the muck. He turned up 7-5 offsuit and said, "Good fold."
One last thought: If you can identify thinking players who are willing to make big folds on the end, try raising the river on them every once in a while. They'll fold big hands if they don't think you're bluffing. But if they ever think there's any chance you're bluffing, they'll usually call because the pot is so big.

I don't want to alarm you, but if what I think is going to happen happens, you should be prepared. That's the way I look at it. And I'd rather you hear it from me than from ... oh, for instance, Dee Sarton or Wayne Dzubak. So let me get a deep breath here ... gosh, this isn't easy for me to say, but ... but ... there's every chance I may be going to jail. You heard me. Jail.
I don't know, it could be for a few days ... could be years. I just don't know. We'll have to wait and see what a judge says. And before the judge can come up with a ruling, I have to be charged with what I might be going to jail for. And before that happens, I have to do it.
But I can sense that you're wondering what it is I'm going to do that might land my fanny in the slammer. Technically, it's what I am not going to do that might land my fanny in the slammer, which is that I will absolutely not divulge my source on an important news exclusive-the details of which I haven't told you yet, but believe me, it concerns a highly sensitive White House secret. And the second I tell you this highly sensitive piece of administration dirt, Alberto Gonzales will start thumping out subpoenas with my name on the top faster than Dick Cheney can wiggle out of a previously stated position. Truly, this information you will soon know about is exactly the sort of thing the Bush people don't want you to know about. And seeing as how Bush, himself, has promised to put an end to insider leaks and ferret out inside leakers, I'm certain they will not rest until they force me to tell them who told me what I'm about to tell you. Which I absolutely will not do.
So it only follows that if they can throw a Pulitzer-winning New York Times reporter like Judith Miller in the pokey for not divulging her source on the relatively minor matter of who outed a CIA agent, you can imagine what they're going to do to a part-timer small fry like me for not divulging my source on a journalistic bombshell that speaks to the very heart of the Bush administration. Huh? Can you imagine!?
Ah, but I guess it's time I set this sad episode of journalism vs. jurisprudence in motion. Here it is, the White House dirty laundry that should tell you exactly what kind of people are running our country ... the truth our citizenry must know, even if it means I eat off a tin plate for the rest of my life and have a toilet next to my bed, here it is: I have it on good authority that Karl Rove is a craven coward who hides his vile soul behind a facade of intelligence and who would allow innocent women to suffer rather than take responsibility for his own corruption.
There. It's out. Now let the legal battles begin.
Pretty bombshell-y stuff, what? That the man who orchestrated Bush's ascension from Austin village idiot to the Embarrassment-in-Chief ... the man who so filled Bush's empty gourd with policy, political philosophy and phony principle that the moron actually thinks he thought of it himself ... the man we are really hearing whenever Bush flaps his slack jaw ... that this man (and I use the term only in its loosest sense) is such a lowlife crud he would destroy one woman's career in order to discredit her husband, and allow another to languish in a jail cell for months to protect his own flabby ass.
But seriously, I've possibly exaggerated my own chances for serving time because my revelation comes as no state secret to those who know a thing or two about Rove's history. From his first political involvement to the present, he has demonstrated less interest in ethics, integrity and honor than he has shown for personal fitness-and if you've ever watched him waddle away from the cameras as though "wedgie" is a condition he has accepted as inevitable, you'll know that's really saying something.
At the tender age of 19, Rove slithered into the headquarters of an Illinois Democrat running for a public office and stole campaign stationery, on which he distributed damaging disinformation. Shortly after that, in a scheme that showed he was as capable of sliming fellow Republicans as Democrats, he became a leader of the College Republicans and as a result, ended up on Poppa Bush's staff. (Evidently, the entire Bush clan likes to keep lowdown dirty dogs around as house pets. Either that, or they simply needed a political Luka Brazzi figure in the family to do, as they say in the Soprano organization, the "wet work.")
In the years to follow, Rove would: bug his own office phone and blame it on Democrats; initiate a rumor campaign that Bush opponent Ann Richards was a lesbian; be fired from Poppa's 1992 re-election campaign for leaking information (to Robert Novak ... go figure); field another rumor in the 2000 primary race that John McCain had fathered an illegitimate child; organize and coach the army of party goons who went to Florida to bully and scream Bush into the White House; endanger the aforementioned spy as a snotty revenge on her husband ... and those are just the things we know about!
So it should come as no shock that such a "man" should turn out to be an abuser of women, too. I'm only surprised that the Washington press corps-all those famous faces who get paid the big bucks to keep America informed-haven't stumbled across this secret long before me. Really, had at some point those crackerjack journalists only investigated why Bush (Rove's crony for over 30 years) would nickname his closest advisor "Turd Blossom" (in reference to some Texas flora that grows only in excrement), maybe the excremental truth about Rove would have come out a lot sooner.
Now that he's been caught, Rove is claiming he did nothing wrong, that he mentioned the CIA lady to reporters only to assist in their investigation, that he didn't know she was a covert agent, and that he didn't actually say her name, anyway ... all of which begs the question as to why he didn't come forward at the beginning of this affair, thereby sparing Judith Miller a prison sentence.
But what am I saying? We now know why he didn't come forward, don't we? Once we have established that Karl Rove is a "craven coward who hides his vile soul behind a facade of intelligence and who would allow innocent women to suffer rather than take responsibility for his own corruption," the rest falls into place, doesn't it? The only question left is how such a cancerous creep could have ended up in the White House when he so obviously deserves an 8-by-10 suite in the Big House.

Mr Lucas said Leisurefest continued the strong interest in the CIA's shows this year, which reflected the strong demand for caravans, RVs and the related lifestyle.
'When you put together our Caravan and Camping Supershow at Caulfield, plus the Melbourne and Bendigo Leisurefests and our brand new Border RV & Camping Expo at Wodonga, we will have well over 120,000 people visit our shows this year,' he said.
'There was strong interest across all three sectors – boats and four-wheel-drives as well as caravans and RVs – which ensured the overall success of Leisurefest as a large and diverse attraction on the recreational calendar.'
Mr Lucas said there was a strong trend this year to online ticket sales, with many patrons taking up the strongly promoted online discounts, which in turn kept people flowing smoothly through the three entry gates with the minimum of delay.
Leisurefest will return to Sandown from 4 to 7 November 2012.

" Published by Kemco, this a two-in-one games package where you take the role of a private detective in prohibition era United Sates. They are done in a point and click format, and are for the Game Boy Colour. "
As the name of this title implies; "Deja Vu I & II" includes a sort of two for one deal, though this is no more than a simple marketing ploy to lure unsuspecting buyers. In actuality, there are two separate "cases" to work through which are both controlled and executed in a similar fashion.
"Deja Vu" is what appears to be a mystery type adventure game. Players work as a private investigator to solve two individual cases. The first case revolves heavily around having amnesia and trying to reclaim personal identity whereas the second case, after rediscovering the detective's identity, works towards meeting with an underground mobster.
Gameplay has a slight learning curve to those not familiar with "point and click" style games. The game itself is presented in first person view, giving a view of whatever area the character may be in. From this there is a list of graphical icons to "click" on, executed by pressing the "A" button, and interacting appropriately with the object. If a player wishes to open a door, for example, the player would click the appropriate "open door" icon and further click the door he or she wishes to open. There is a cursor, similar to a computer mouse visual, which the player guides using the arrow keys. As one may tell, there is a very tedious procedure in "doing" the most simple in tasks. Text is also featured prominently throughout gameplay so the player must be prepared to read extensively.
There are no actual animations in this title. The producers presented this game through still images, which allowed for very detailed and colourful drawings. I particularly liked this measure as objects were drawn with precision and showed much effort in implementation. I found, however, that there were some excessively coloured areas which did not merit the chosen design (for example purple ceilings).
Audio was somewhat inappropriate for the "mysterious" factor of this title. I found the music to be rather light-hearted, happy and almost comedic in style. This certainly does not compliment the dark scenarios in which the main character finds himself in. The only obvious sound effect was a beeping type sound with each "click".
"Deja Vu" would more likely appeal to an adult player. It's age rating I feel is rather low, as it was given the "E" label to deem it suitable for "Everyone". There are numerous mature themes throughout the title, including but not limited to suicide, criminal activity and the propagation of small arms. It's unlikely that a child would find enjoyment in this game due to the frequent areas of extended reading but I wouldn't suggest this game as suitable for a vulnerable mind.
I actually asked for this game to be put in the list, so I feel I better write about it. I bought this game a while back, when I took Pokemon Blue back (I won one in a competition, so i didn't need it). My favourite games are RPG's and point and click games and this one sounded good! The game is a two in one, game boy color game. You get number one and two on the same cartridge. So I thought value for money aswell! You take the role of Ace Harding, private detective in Deja Vu 1. You search the towns, streets, alleys and buildings of chicago searching for a cure for your amnesia and a killer who has framed you for a brutal murder. It is an easy game to control, but it is a very hard game. You can lose the game or die on several different occasions, poisoning yourself, getting shot by a mugger (after you send him packing with a punch to the face three separate times), get arrested by the police, be shot by a buxom blonde (who you can't seem to remember, but she knows you too well), dying from a severe headache (due to your amnesia) and falling down a whole in the road ("you didn't see the danger sign")! This is an interesting game which is very appealing and you don't want to put it down till you finished (which is why I eventually got a guide, just to actually get the game started!). When you eventually cure your amnesia and find the one who framed you, you uncover a few loose strings that gradually unravel into Deja Vu 2. Trapped in the slimy town of Las Vegas, you find yourself dealing with a notorious mob leader who makes you an offer you can't refuse. The guy who was killed (and you nearly got framed for his murder) owes the mob leader 12,000 dollars and seen as the last person to see him was you, he thinks you've got his money, so he says get it "or else"! The graphics are very good for a Game Boy Color game and the sound and music are really good for a Game Boy game. The detail in these games ar
e incredible, the games are challenging and exciting, and I recommend them to anyone really, especially if you like RPG's.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Wadeslea Early Origins
Yorkshire at Wadlsey, an ecclesiastical district, in the parish of Ecclesfield, union of Wortley, N. division of the wapentake of Strafforth and Tickhill. "This was the baronial seat of the Wadsley family, of whose Hall there are still some remains. " [1]CITATION[CLOSE]
Lewis, Samuel, A Topographical Dictionary of England. Institute of Historical Research, 1848, Print. The Anglo-Saxon estate of Wadesleah is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 in its genitive form of Wadesleia. Hence, conjecturally, the surname is descended from the tenant of the lands of Wadsley, held by Roger de Bully, a Norman noble, who was recorded in the Domesday Book census of 1086. Wadsley and Wadsley Bridge are now a part of Sheffield.
Wadeslea Spelling Variations
Wadeslea Spelling Variations
A multitude of spelling variations characterize Norman surnames. Many variations occurred because Old and Middle English lacked any definite spelling rules. The introduction of Norman French to England also had a pronounced effect, as did the court languages of Latin and French. Therefore, one person was often referred to by several different spellings in a single lifetime. The various spellings include Wadsley, Wadslie, Wadesley, Waidsly, Waddsley, Wadesleigh, Wadeslea, Wadslea, Wadisley and many more.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Many English families left England, to avoid the chaos of their homeland and migrated to the many British colonies abroad. Although the conditions on the ships were extremely cramped, and some travelers arrived diseased, starving, and destitute, once in the colonies, many of the families prospered and made valuable contributions to the cultures of what would become the United States and Canada. Research into the origins of individual families in North America has revealed records of the immigration of a number of people bearing the name Wadeslea or a variant listed above: settlers were recorded from the mid 17th century in the great migration from Europe. Migrants settled in the eastern seaboard from Newfoundland, to Maine, to Florida, and to the islands..

Featured ISLA Beach and Destination: El Transito, Nicaragua
Nestled in a mile long crescent shaped cove in northwest Nicaragua, El Transito is a timeless glimpse of Nicaraguan coastal living. The village functions almost entirely as a fishing village, as each morning and each afternoon the local pontoon boats negotiate the high surf with careful precision to come and go with the day's sustenance.
Each year during the Spring week of Easter the sleepy village transforms itself into a unique and eclectic destination getaway for the family and friends of the fishermen, and for the Nicaraguan owners of the many vacation homes that lay dormant for most the year. During ISLA's first year as an organization, this little beach and its festive transformation become one of the first destinations of international operations for ISLA. We have made it a point to work alongside the Red Cross of Nicaragua by having a presence in this town ever since. This past year marked the first ever ISLA training course in the country of Nicaragua, the course lasted three days, involved over 40 participants from all over the country and took place at the local school and on the local beaches of El Transito.
The beach's surf and its vicinity to other great surf breaks makes El Transito a great destination for tourists. And despite the increase in tourists and surfers to the area in recent years, the region remains relatively untouched in today's industrial tourism standards.
Very simple and minimal sleeping accommodations can be found by walking the main dirt road of the village. There is one small market at the main intersection of the coastal road and the other road that eventually gets you to Managua, the nation's capital. The fishermen's catch can be purchased as early as the moments the boats get ashore, where the rest of the town will be there to bid alongside you for whatever catch the fishermen have.
ISLA will continue to provide assistance, supplies and volunteers during the busy Easter week, and utilize El Transito for its training course for Nicaragua lifeguards.
Resources and local accomodations:–Greensurf Lodge, El Transito. Also: Greensurf Lodge Trip Advisor Review.
–Nicaragua Eco-Hotel
Weather:Nicaragua's Summer (dry season) are between the months of October and March, even though the weather and water are warm year round.
SurfThe best swells are SW and SSW, but both W swells and NW swells will bring good waves. The best season is November to March where swell is rarely smaller than waist high, and usually much larger. The offshore winds rarely get too strong, and a typically side-shore wind will blow in the afternoons.
Getting there:El Transito is very remote. From the capital city and international airport in Managua to El Transito, you will not see any other major town (unless you come through the colonial city of Leon). A taxi from Managua to El Transito will cost $30 – $40 and take about 2 hours. You can also rent a car in the airport or make arrangements with your housing accommodations. The road can be rough, especially after a rain storm, as much of it is dirt or washed out.
Nightlife and RestaurantsA few restaurants line the main road of town, all serving the typical Nicaraguan diet of plantains, fish/chicken/pork and gallo pinto (rice and beans). Nightlife is minimal due to the low population, but several restaurants will stay open late and sell liters of Tona and Victoria, Nicaragua's two most popular beers. There are NO ATMs in the town, nor anywhere nearby.
