For the past 3 years I've been watching my country Mexico go from bad to worse. Everyday I read the newspapers and I see more and more people being killed. Kidnaping has become an easy thing to do and one the worst things is that kids are becoming killers. What??? yes! Kids are being taught*
how to torture even how to kill. Why would someone want a child to do such a horrendous act? What's happening? Is it only in Mexico? Is it the whole world?
how to torture even how to kill. Why would someone want a child to do such a horrendous act? What's happening? Is it only in Mexico? Is it the whole world?
A few days ago I watched a short film and campaign by Invisible Children "kony2012", the film exposes a situation in Africa where children are being kidnaped and raised this way from a very early age. The film shows a picture of a little guy with a machine gun that is bigger than him. The little boy can bearly walk but he's right there on the front line... it broke my heart.
To be honest I've heard stories like this before, I've even seen movies where situations like this exist but I have never allowed myself to connect to them long enough to do something about it. Some of us may think that we don't have the power to make a change, but we do. Some of us may even be afraid to think about the situation, but the truth is, that if we choose fear the situation will only get worse. Gandhi said "Be the Change you want to see in the world". It may start with ourselves, with our children, students, our family.
So, What can I do? and may be the question is: What do I want to do?
Besides researching on a daily basis and blogging about it, I would like to start by sharing one of the most amazing parenting tools I've ever experienced in my life. NXIVM tools allow you to become a more Conscience human being and as an effect of that more mindful. More information can be found at NXIVM Education and NXIVM Testimonials. I truly believe this is what it takes!
A good friend from Mexico shared the following with me which I found interesting and possible to do.
|Begin with infancy to give the child everything he wants. In this way he will grow up to believe the world owes him a living.
|Quarrel frequently in the presence of your children. In this way they won't be so shocked when the home is broken up later.
|When he picks up bad words, laugh at him. This will make him think he's cute.
|Give the child all the spending money he wants. Never let him earn his own.
|Never give him any spiritual training. Wait until he is twenty-one and then let "him decide for himself".
|Satisfy his every craving for food, drink, and comfort. See that his every sensual desire is gratified.
|Avoid the use of "wrong". He may develop a guilt complex. This will condition him to believe later, when he is arrested, that society is against him and he is being persecuted.
|Let him read any printed material, and listen to any music he can get his hands on. Be careful that the silverware and drinking glasses are sterilized, but let his mind feast on garbage.
|Pick up everything he leaves lying around. Do everything for him so that he will be experienced in throwing all responsibility on others.
|When he gets into real trouble, apologize to yourself by saying, "I could never do anything with him."
|Take his part against neighbors, teachers, and policemen. They are all prejudiced against your child.
|Prepare for a life of grief. You will likely have it.
Are we in?
* Thank You Sylvie with your help and support with my poor grammar.

Krayzie Bone Interview
|Krayzie Bone
|Thug Line/RBC Records
|Next Project:
|Just One Mo Hit (Solo Album) / Uni-5 (BTNH Album)
|Krayzie Bone's Website
Among industry veterans, there are always a lucky few who have achieved such success that they could simply choose to hang up the mic and live out the rest of their days in comfort, secure that their contributions to their genre will never be forgotten. Though many in hip-hop have chosen to take this path, one of the hallmarks of a truly driven artist is the unquenchable need for Just One Mo Hit; preparing to unleash his fifth solo LP on his legions of devoted fans, and working on a forthcoming eighth album with the group that made him a legend, Krayzie Bone's clearly not about to call it quits—in fact, he's looking to parlay his status as a hip-hop icon into something even bigger in the years to come.
As demonstrated on lead single "Life! A Lesson to Learn," the Grammy award-winning emcee's extensive experience in the industry has left him with plenty to say, and with the March 24th release of Just One Mo Hit, music-lovers everywhere will get an inside look at the wisdom he's gained over more than 15 years in the game. As if that wasn't enough, this summer he will join forces with Layzie, Bizzy, Wish, and Flesh to drop Uni-5, the first release since 2000's BTNHResurrection to feature the entire Bone Thugs lineup.
In an exclusive interview with our own DJ "Z," Krayzie Bone steps into the Booth to discuss the most important lesson he's learned in the course of his career, the events that brought all five Bone Thugs back into Harmony after years apart, and how he and his group blazed a trail that big names and up-and-comers alike are still following to this day.

Krayzie Bone Interview Transcription
DJ Booth: What's goin' on, everybody? It's your boy "Z," doin' it real big, and joining me inside the DJ Booth is a Cleveland native who is preparing to take Just One Mo Hit later this month, and of course, this summer, become Uni-5 once again. Please welcome, for the second time, a Grammy award-winning emcee, my man Krayzie Bone—how you doin'?
Krayzie: Just chilling, man, everything is cool. Taking it slow, you know?
DJ Booth: Absolutely. Well, you're takin' it slow now, but you've been very busy. Next week, you're gonna unleash your fifth solo project. Congratulations, that's great!
Krayzie: Thanks a lot, man, I really appreciate it. I've just been in the studio, gettin' it in, just tryin' to keep this music comin', you know?
DJ Booth: Let's go back for a second. The title of your solo debut was Thug Mentality 1999, so what would you say is your "thug mentality" here in 2009?
Krayzie: Well, that was 10 years ago. I was still young. I'd say now I've matured a whole lot, in those 10 years—musically, personally, mentally—so you're getting a different Krayzie Bone: a more grown-up, mature Krayzie Bone.
DJ Booth: The lead single off the new album, which we featured here at DJBooth.net, is entitled "Life! A Lesson to Learn." So, Krayzie, what is the hardest lesson that you've had to learn?
Krayzie: The hardest lesson I guess would be friendship and business—I really understand now why they tell you not to mix the two. Business and money, it does destroy some of the closest relationships. When it comes to this business, it is what it is: it's business.
DJ Booth: How do you think you could separate business and friendship, make the two of them work, not necessarily interconnected but by themselves?
Krayzie: It's really up to the persons involved. If both people are on the level with each other, and they understand that the money isn't [more] important than a person's friendship—if both people can understand that, it's a wonderful thing. But you find time and time again that money is the root of all evil, and it makes people do some unusual things.
DJ Booth: You think you're friends with someone, and then money gets involved, and you realize you weren't that good of friends in the first place.
Krayzie: Exactly, and that's happened time and time again.
DJ Booth: What better way to find out who your true friends are than by those who do not let money get in the way?
Krayzie: Man, that's exactly true. That is exactly true. Everybody that comes around me is in it for the money. You see it a lot, and it's hard to know who's really there for you as a friend. But now, since I've been in the business for as long as I have, I can see 'em coming.
DJ Booth: In the record we just talked about, you spit the line, "I have a whole lot of player haters hatin' my shine/ I don't know why suckas keep hatin' on my grind." Krayzie, out of the hundreds of artists that have joined me inside the Booth for an interview, I can't think of an artist who, as part of a group, has been more loved and embraced. What specifically transpired that made you write a rhyme like that?
Krayzie: Like I said, just goin' through everything for my career, just lookin' back on everything. I've been through a lot in this business—a lot of good times, and a lot of bad times. That's basically what the song is reflecting: everything I've been through and the people I came into contact with, and the stuff I was chasing, the money and the fame and all that stuff—it just took a toll.
DJ Booth: Considering all that you've been through, even though there have been some hardships, some trials, some tribulations, would you change anything, or are you confident that everything you went through has made you the man and the emcee you are today?
Krayzie: If I could change anything, all I would do is, I would go back and ask for the knowledge I didn't have when I first started. Other than that, all the experiences and stuff like that, I'm still here, so it didn't kill me, know what I'm saying?
DJ Booth: A lot of people say knowledge is power, and I don't wanna harp on this too much—do you feel like during your years at Ruthless, the group was taken advantage of?
Krayzie: Definitely. I can honestly say that everyone who was in contact with Bone or did business with Bone up until right now—we own all our stuff now—everyone has taken advantage of Bone. Every company we've been in business with, from Ruthless to Interscope, it has not been honest business on their parts.
DJ Booth: Do you point the finger at Jerry Heller or a label executive at any of the places you've been at, or do you say to yourself, "Maybe we should have just put some better people around our group so they could've informed us and helped us make the right decisions, so that these things didn't happen?"
Krayzie: I really can't put all the blame on them. They were in the record business when they met us; they were shootin' their usual. I'm pretty sure we're not the first act they [put one] over on. If I had to be mad at anybody, it would be ourselves. That actually came from us not knowin' the business. Everything came so fast for us, [the money and the success were] comin' so fast, that we didn't really take time to understand the business and follow up on certain things that had to do with our business.
DJ Booth: Well, it's all for the better, 'cause you guys are in a great position now. For several years, longtime fans were quite understandably upset, thinking that the possibility of the group recording again as a quintet wouldn't happen. As I'm sure most people know by now, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony is completely reunited, and you guys are gonna be dropping the appropriately-titled Uni-5 this summer. What did it take in order to make this new album, this new situation a reality?
Krayzie: Well, Flesh just came home… there were just so many people between us. See, that's the whole thing with Bone: there were just too many people that came in between the main members, so that kinda split everybody up. But once we started talking, everybody pretty much knew what it was. Bizzy was on the level; he was brave to come back in and be a part of Bone. Flesh had just been released, so he was automatically down, then with him comin' home, it made everything all the better; it made us all come back together. Him comin' home played a big part in everybody getting back together, just really realizing, "Man, we've still got a chance to do this and do it big, so let's get back at it."
DJ Booth: Krayzie, do you feel like Bone Thugs-n-Harmony picks right back up where it left off, or is it gonna take some time for you guys to readapt and have fans readapt to your new collective sound?
Krayzie: I think once we get out there, the music is gonna speak for itself like it always has. That's where our fans come from, cause we've got undeniable real-life music. That's what we call it, that's our own genre, is "real-life music," and everybody loves to hear real-life issues, 'cause, especially in these times, everybody is goin' through 'em.
DJ Booth: It was "reality rap" before that term was coined, if you will.
Krayzie: Exactly.
DJ Booth: What do you think Bone Thugs-n-Harmony means to hip-hop?
Krayzie: Before we came along, everybody was basically doing the same thing, simple style, then we came along and took the game up two or three notches, and it's been there ever since. If you listen to R&B artists and other rap artists, everybody has borrowed a little bit of Bone Thugs-n-Harmony. Every song on the radio from a rapper today, every hit song, they have borrowed from Bone Thugs-n-Harmony. Whether they're doin' harmony, they're singing their hooks, they're rapping fast like Bone, everybody is doin' it. So even though we've been gone from the scene for a while, other artists have kept us alive, and I think that's why we're still able to come out and do what we do: because people are still doin' what we did 15 years ago.
DJ Booth: When you come in contact with these artists, do they acknowledge what you guys have done?
Krayzie: Some of them do, a certain few that I really have true respect for because they acknowledge it like Chamillionaire, Mariah Carey, and artists like that—they really give it up. And Busta.
DJ Booth: Well, I would be surprised if Cham and Mariah didn't give you credit, because you guys gave them some of the biggest hits of their respective careers, so credit is due, definitely. Krayzie, let's get into some reader questions. Let's hop across the pond for number one from Dannie of London, England; he wrote, "Being from the UK, where there's little promotion and minimal airplay, it's taken a lot of dedication and loyalty over the past 15 years to keep up with you guys. Since the new label is called Bone Thugs-n-Harmony Worldwide how do you plan to expose your new music on an international level?"
Krayzie: Once we get this album in the can and start promotin' it, we're definitely going to do a world tour, and I think we're actually starting in the UK. Like I said, with this new team we have, we have a staff of media people that's gearing up to start reaching our fans and then some—everywhere. It's definitely in our plans to let our fans overseas, in other countries know what we're doing, when we're doing it and everything, so they feel that they're in the loop just like the people here in America.
DJ Booth: Absolutely—you just made Dannie really happy. Next question comes from Shortdog984 of Sacktown, California, and he said, "Krayzie, last time you were in the Booth, you discussed a collaborative project with fellow Midwesterner Twista. What's the latest on this potential hip-hop masterpiece?"
Krayzie: It's definitely still in motion. There were a couple of holdups 'cause Twista, he's obviously busy, he's working on several projects and his label, we've been busy, I've been working on several projects—Bone albums, my solo albums. We've got a couple of songs recorded. We're actually workin' on a Midwest compilation. It's just gonna have all the artists in the Midwest featured. It's called Coming from the Midwest. Me and Twista are definitely gonna be on that. As far as the [us] and Twista album, it's definitely coming; maybe in 2010 people will see that.
DJ Booth: So what you're saying is, you can't put a date on it, but the public will be able to enjoy a Bone Thugs/Twista album.
Krayzie: Exactly.
DJ Booth: Okay, good. The last reader question comes from Teresa of Atlanta, Georgia, and she wrote, "Krayzie, how much money did it take to get Bone Thugs in the studio with Kevin Federline?"
Krayzie: [laughs] Man, it's all good… first of all, I heard his music, and I really think he can be worked with, I really think he has something to say to the people, obviously, with all the stuff he's been through. It ain't even all about the money; I'm gonna do what I do. I ain't no greedy person—I do music because I love it.
DJ Booth: But you're saying that you guys felt that there was some talent level that he possessed, in order to at least discuss the possibility of collaboration?
Krayzie: Exactly.
DJ Booth: Okay, glad we could clear that up. Krayzie, everybody's really excited about what you have going on. I want them to find out more—give 'em a website, MySpace page, so they can find out about, of course, your solo project, dropping next week, and the new Bone Thugs-n-Harmony project, dropping this summer.
Krayzie: You can go to the Bone Thugs-n-Harmony MySpace page, and you can also go to btnhboard.com.
DJ Booth: That's what it is. Krayzie, as always, I appreciate you takin' the time to join me inside the DJBooth, and I wish you nothing but the continued best of luck, my friend.
Krayzie: Thanks a lot; I appreciate it.

New York, NY (PressExposure) May 20, 2009 -- Kate is a regular performer on the performance poetry club circuit and is well-respected for her writing. She has now decided to share her talents with a wider audience by writing to commission poems for wedding and civil partnerships as well as other celebratory occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries. Kate will also write bespoke poetry of the sadder occasions in life such as funerals and memorial services. Operating under the banner of 'The Wedding Poet' Kate has carved out a wonderfully creative niche in bespoke poetry.
Kate has written and performed her own poetry for some time and has also written wedding poems for many friends over the years, but it was only when trying to find suitable wedding poems for her own big day, she realised just how difficult a task it was to find wedding poems which were really fitting. The current offerings of wedding poems tend to be very broadly romantic and Kate thought there was room for a service offering very personal wedding poems written to order in a uniquely professional way.
Using her experience as an established author and performance poet, The Wedding Poet is able to put her extensive talents to work writing wedding poems which are completely client led. Kate will initially gather as much information about her clients and their relationship as possible before even putting pen to paper. The Wedding Poet is able to build her wedding poems completely around the information her clients provide, thereby making them exceptionally personal and unique. In this way the Wedding Poet's wedding poems say exactly what her clients want them to say but written with a degree of professionalism that they would never have been able to achieve themselves.
Wedding poems and readings have become a much more flexible part of the marriage ceremony. Often now a bride will want to have part to play during the speeches and Kate has had several mums and mums-in-law keen to get in the act. With many of the old rules of order going out of the window wedding poems can now be read by any member of the wedding party who might care to have something to say. There is even the possibility of using wedding poems instead of the usual tired old wedding speeches.
About Kate Tym:
Kate Tym has worked as a freelance writer and editor since 1998. Born in Essex in 1968, she spent most of her childhood in Northumberland before moving to London at the age of eighteen. She pursued a career in publishing working for Random House children's books where she was Commissioning Editor. She has over thirty published children's books to her name. She has written everything from pre-school board books to teenage fiction and has been published by Element, Puffin, Red Fox, QED, Pavillion and Brilliant Books. Kate now lives on the South Coast of England with her husband and three children.

Hello helpful Fodorites,
We are visiting Spain next February with our two daughters, age 11 and 8. We plan to spend 3 or 4 days in Barcelona and then fly to Granada. We'll have 4 days in the Andalucia region before flying back to NYC from Seville.
We are looking for recommendations about how to handle the Andalucia portion of our trip. We are most excited about seeing the Alhambra, but we are also interested in visiting Seville. Can we manage this without changing hotels in different cities? Is a day trip from Granada to Seville an option? Should we base ourselves in Granada or Seville?
I am also happy to take suggestions about hotels or apartments in Granada and/or Seville.
Thank you for your help. We've done plenty of research on Barcelona, but I'm finding the Andalucia portion of our trip confusing.

Hello helpful Fodorites,

I don't understand your plans, if you are flying into Granada and flying back from Seville, you have already decided to change hotels, haven't you? I don't understand how else you could do that. I guess you want about 2 days in each place.
Seville is pretty far from Granada for a day trip. I've done a day trip from Malaga to Granada and enjoyed it a lot as I wasn't that interested in spending days viewing the Alhambra, so one day was enough and it save a lot of time and trouble logistically. But Seville is a lot farther away.
IN theory, yes, you could do it, the bus_train option takes about 3 hours each way (from Granada to SEville) and involves 2 changes. I think just taking a bus the whole way would be easier and wouldn't take much longer, about 3.5-4 hours. But you see that doesn't leave you much time in Seville, maybe an afternoon, even if you don't mind getting back in Granada very late at night. YOu can't really do that with two young children.
DO you already have your plane tickets purchased? Becuase if so, I don't see what choice you have, you have to move to Seville for the last couple days.
Report Abuse
You say 3 or 4 days in Barcelona and 4 for Andalucia, so you will keep 4 for Andalucia no matter what, and cut Barcelona to 3 if you have to?
Travel is going to take a good bit of your time and it is winter, so not long days.
Change or add as you please, but do lay out your itinerary to include travel.
Day 1, depart (US?)
Day 2, arrive Barcelona, (AM?) get to hotel, etc. 1/2 jet lagged day walking sightseeing.
Day 3, Barcelona, 1 whole day
Day 4, Barcelona, 1 whole day
Day 5, morning flight to Granada. Walk around Granada. Book tickets ahead for evening at the Alhambra
Day 6, Alhambra in the morning, travel to Seville in late afternoon. Hotel, dinner.
Day 7, Seville
Day 8, Seville
Day 9, depart for home

I agree that with the time you have, something has to give! I like Sassafrass's plan, except that if the Alhambra is your highest priority, I wouldn't shortchange it, and for me, that would mean 2 nights in Granada so I had the better part (if not all!) of the day for the Alhambra.
Have you considered skipping Barcelona on this trip, and "just" visiting Sevilla, Granada, and magnificent Cordoba? Just a thought...
Or skip Andalusia. (I would pick Andalusia in Feb. rather than Barcelona. Maybe that's just me.) Plenty to see in and around Barcelona to fill the time you have.
Good luck!

Barcelona, Granada, Sevilla sounds like a great tour!
With two kids 8 and 11 years, I wouldn't spend too much time in Alhambra. They will most probably be totally amazed at first, but after max a couple of hours (remember to also visit the wonderful Generalife gardens up here), I'm quite sure they want to move on. You can add to the Alhambra experience with a lunch or dinner in one of the restaurants in the Albayzín district with fabulous views of Alhambra. Albayzin is the old Moorsih quarter on the hill just over the small Darro valley and river from Alhambra: http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/314
The Mirador de San Nicolás in Albayzín: http://www.lonelyplanet.com/spain/granada/sights/viewpoints-observation-decks/mirador-san-nicolas
Some restaurant and tapas bar options in Albayzín: http://theculturetrip.com/europe/spain/articles/the-10-best-restaurants-in-albaicin-granada/
And the fabulous flamenco dancer Sara Baras will for sure put you in the Albayzín and Alhambra mood: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVKVPuy2MNo
Perhaps see some of the finest local flamenco artists in Casa del Arte Flamenco? Located close to central Plaza Nueva at the start of the Cuesta de Gomérez leading up to Alhambra. Only top of the shelf artists perform here. No food, no drinks, only flamenco for some 60 mins and only 15€ entrance, about a third of the price in the more touristy tablaos (flamenco restaurants). http://www.casadelarteflamenco.com/gb/content/7-flamenco-show
If you go to Sevilla, the queen of the cities in Andalucía, you should definitely make it more than a day-trip. http://www.exploreseville.com/

Don's stay just one day in Sevilla! Personally I liked much more than Granada. In Granada, an afternoon for the Allambra (that you must buy in advance), and the morning walking around is enough in Granada.
And 3 days in Barcelona is also a good idea.

Skip Barcelona.

Thanks for your thoughtful comments, everyone. I am surprised by the consensus that we should skip Barcelona -- but you seem to know what you're talking about!
I guess, then, that we would fly into Madrid and then take the train south. Would that make sense? We are coming from NYC.
Report Abuse
Yes, that makes sense. Congrats !

I thinl there is only one person who dislikes Barcelona a lot on this thread, and another who said that was a suggestion--I don't agree with that at all so don't see the consensus.
I like both Madrid and Barcelona, one isn't any better than the other. But it is easier to get from Madrid to Seville, of course. But if you were going to fly from BCN to Granada, seems a toss up to me.
It's your choice, decide on which you'd rather see, it appears originally it was Barcelona. Actually I think a lot of people may like Barcelona more than Madrid, actually. I think kids would, but that's speculating.
In February, the weather in Barcelona has an avg of 57F high and 42F low. Madrid is just a little colder but not much, but it is typically sunnier in Barcelona in February.
Report Abuse
Ok, I am going against the grain here for a couple of reasons which may/may not be important to you.
First, overall travel time from a hotel in Barcelona to a hotel in Granada won't be much more travel time than from hotel in Madrid to hotel in Granada, so that, IMHO, is moot.
The important thing for me - weather. Madrid is the highest Capital in Europe and is usually just enough cooler than Barcelona to make a difference in comfort when walking around outside. Even more important, Madrid averages only 2 hours of sunshine in February, so is grayer and gloomier. Barcelona has a bit over 6 hours of sunshine a day, and for me it is much more pleasant to be walking in sunshine than gloom. So, Barcelona, warmer and sunnier, Madrid, colder and gloomier.
I would also want to go to Madrid when I could take some day trips to Toledo, Segovia, etc.
Report Abuse
I'm not sure I understand why people are arguing over Madrid versus Barcelona. If I understand the OP, she/he was planning to drop Barcelona in favor of more time in Seville/Andalucia and would presumably just fly in and out of Madrid. Maybe I'm wrong, but if that's their plan, it makes sense to me given the time of year and the total days of their trip.
Report Abuse
Silly Sassy - You made typos with your calculator with regard to the hours of sunshine in both cities. Do your math again.
The real point here is that the OP only has 8 days in which to get an idea of Spain. Going to Madid and Andalucia will give them that. Granada, Seville, and Cordoba are glorious as is Madrid. They are from NYC so the weather is inconsequential in Madrid. this is part of the best time to travel to Andalucia ! Barcelona is better in summer when one can go to the sea to try to escape the cruise people, pickpockets, and drug dealers.
Report Abuse
Indyhiker, you are correct. The plan B I am thinking of is to fly from NYC to Madrid, and then immediately travel to Seville and the rest of Andalucia. Spend 8 days in Seville, Granada, Cordoba, then fly out of either Seville or Madrid. Sound good?
Report Abuse
With a plan to spend all your time in Andalusia -- which I think is very wise -- I would consider flights that include going on to, and starting in, Andalusia. I think that would me switching planes (but not airports) in either Madrid or Barcelona. Maybe a train would be the best way, but I would at least price out my options. Just something to consider!

No consensus, and no, they don't. New York Times does
Barcelona is also fabulous for kids:

Barcelona is a great city but I can only take so much Modernisme. I can't stand La Rambla. The Madrid to Andalucia route is so much easier logistically. I would fly in to Madrid, go right to Seville for as long as you can, Cordoba as a daytrip or for two nights, Granada for two nights, Malaga for a night (probably the best weather in Europe in Feb.) and high speed train back to Madrid for as many nights as you want, visit Toledo as a daytrip if you can, kids like the medieval atmosphere, swords, armor, etc. Madrid has amazing museums.
Report Abuse
FWIW, I agree that Barcelona is a great city, and I, for one, couldn't get enough Modernisme!
My recommendation, based on the time the OP has available, was to choose between Andalusia and Barcelona. And based on the time of year, I noted that I would go to Andalusia.
Report Abuse
Modernisme aside, all Andalucía could of course be a good option. But perhaps not with 8 and 11 years old in February? I just meant that blatantly advice against Barcelona is a very bad travel advice, and I think first and foremost the kids would have much more fun with a mix of Barcelona, an explosion for kids all ages year around, and then a little taste of Andalucía. All Andalucía in February could easily become much tourist tracks Alhambra, Mezquita, Real Alcázar, Alcazaba, Gibralfaro, Cathedral, Cathedral, Cathedral, one-armed Cathedral, not necessarily much fun for kids after you get the drift of it. Barcelona in February is an excellent time of year to go, outside the main tourist season and normally mild temperatures, much sun and all kinds of activities, experiences, sights and fun at your feet.
I think you should know Andalucía very well to know where to go and what to do outside the most obvious tourist tracks in February with kids. Perhaps go skiing in the Sierra Nevada, hiking in Torcal, explore the Nerja Caves or perhaps join some local festival. Or go to Málaga.
Report Abuse
Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. Kimhe, obviously the appeal of an all-Andalucia vacation is that we could save time without a flight or a long train ride between Barcelona and Granada, Malaga, Seville, etc. But I have no doubt my kids would love Barcelona, too. Help!
I have to tell you, I've planned a ton of vacations for my family, but this one is just driving me nuts. NUTS!! Part of me is wondering if I should just simplify and take the family to Barcelona, with a few side trips. Done. But I long to see the Alhambra and experience the whole Andalucia vibe, so here we are.
Report Abuse
Have you check on flights yet? Can you get a flight home from Seville?
Bedar suggested I am silly and sometimes I definitely am silly. However, I plead not guilty to making a math mistake about weather and sunshine with a calculator. I leave all calculations and weather predictions to scientists and weather experts. Holiday-weather.com is my go to source and is usually reliable. They gave hours of sunshine in Madrid and Barcelona as well as weather averages.
Not to quibble too much, but just because a person must deal with either hot weather or ice and snow where they live, does not necessarily mean they don't care about it during vacation. Going from your house to your car or subway in cold or rain or broiling heat is not the same as walking for hours outside while sightseeing. Some may not care at all. Others might care a lot, so it is never bad to at least have the info.
Brook330033, Your short visit makes choices difficult. I love Madrid (in warm weather) and can take or leave Barcelona (except that I love Gaudi's work). However, I honestly think your kids would enjoy Barcelona much more. Kimhe has already posted some links for that, and I agree with his assessments. Kimhe also posted some good activity suggestions in an earlier post.
The Alhambra is important to you, so do an evening and morning visit (on separate days or both on the same day) and head on to Seville. Check flight times to see if Barcelona, Granada, Seville works better or if Seville, Granada, Barcelona works better.
Whatever you decide to see or to skip, your family will have a fantastic time.
Report Abuse
And of course not a bad idea to go all in for Andalucía, a very special vibe as you say. And excellent public transportation in the area. Sevilla - Córdoba is 45 mins, Córdoba - Málaga is 50 mins, Málaga - Granada is 90 mins etc. etc.
If you do the Andalucía tour, I would suggest you also visit fabulous Málaga by the Med, "the province's city of culture with its so-called 'mile of art' being compared to Madrid, and its dynamism and fine dining to Barcelona". Also the Andalucía transport central with the major airport, the AVE line, the large bus station etc. https://www.lonelyplanet.com/spain/andalucia/malaga
Right in Málaga city centre you have the Roman theater, the Moorish Alcazaba palace fortress (some hundred years older than Alhambra), the huge 16th century one-armed Cathedral, the Picasso birth house, the Picasso museum etc. etc. http://www.malagaturismo.com/en
And plenty of things to do for the kids (note, in Spain kids are almost everywhere at all times of day and night, so not that much need for special kids activities): http://blog.solaga.co.uk/10-things-to-do-in-malaga-with-kids/
Perhaps take the ferris wheel ride down in the harbour. Fabulous views during daytime, but perhaps most spectacular at night: http://www.andalucia.com/cities/malaga/big-wheel-noria.htm
The Wheel is next door to the new Muelle Uno with restaurants, cafés, shopping, playgrounds, mini-golf and sports activities: http://www.andalucia.com/cities/malaga/muelle-uno.htm
Perhaps have a special lunch or dinner in one of the five restaurants in the newly reopened luxcury Gran Hotel Miramar from 1926: http://www.granhotelmiramarmalaga.com/en/

I have really enjoyed this thread as I had the same question. We are in receipt of some miles and were thinking of heading to Spain during spring break 2017, the last week of March. I wanted to do the south, but my husband is interested in going to the north and Barcelona. We have a 7 yr old daughter who is going to be interested in outdoor activities and adventures. Based on feedback for Koorb from this thread, I'm wondering if you couldn't suggest some days or overnight trips from Barcelona for Koorb and my family that might give a non-urban component to the travel plans.

Hi, Molly. We're not a typically sporty or adventurous family, but I'd be delighted to hear some suggestions about outdoor activities near Barcelona. Maybe we can get out of our comfort zone a little!

When it comes to outdoor activities in Barcelona, a trip up to Montjuic (Jewish mountain) almost right in the city center could be a great idea. Lots of greens, theaters, museums and 1992 Olympic sports arenas, the Poble Espanyol and the Castell on top with fabulous views of both the city and the sea: http://www.barcelonaturisme.com/wv3/en/page/1142/castell-de-montjuic.html

If you go to top of the shelf flamenco venue Tablao de Carmen, the entrance to Poble Espanyol is included in the price. Could be an experience to remember for all, not least for the girls.

Erin Andrews' Week 6 thoughts
Erin Andrews (@ErinAndrews), the host of FOX College Football pregame show, shares her thoughts on what she is most looking forward to in Week 6:
FOX (once again) has weekend's best matchup
West Virginia takes on Texas at 6:30 p.m. ET on FOX. How will Geno Smith perform Saturday after a historic game vs, Baylor? Texas is very excited about QB David Ash's maturation and expecting his development to continue against the Mountaineers. Which defense will step up to make a big play? How will Texas slow down Smith and his talented receivers? How effective will the Longhorns' run game be? Big 12 football at its finest.
LSU at Florida, 3:30 pm. ET
Will LSU finally be focused? Les Miles is pretty upset with fumbles, turnovers, penalties — can Florida take advantage of the mistakes? How much pressure can Florida get on QB Zach Mettenberger? Florida says its a more mature team than in the past. Can the Gators take that next step in the month of October? This is the time of year they've failed over the past two seasons. QB Jeff Driskell has improved and led this team all year — can he do it again Saturday? Will The Swamp be the "old Swamp"– intimidating, crazy place to play?
Georgia-South Carolina, 7 p.m. ET
It's big news that Georgia leading receiver Michael Bennett is out with a season-ending knee injury. How will this affect the Bulldogs' passing game and does it give South Carolina's defense a huge advantage over QB Aaron Murray? What about the whole other issue of stopping Georgia's two-headed rushing attack? On the other side, can Connor Shaw keep it up against a hungry Georgia D?
The Rachael Ray Show
On Friday morning, I made an appearance with Rachael Ray promoting FOX's new football package. It's always nerve wracking for me being on her show because I can't cook at all! And I'm always afraid she's going to trick me and show how very little I know in the kitchen. She promised me we are going to do a day when the cameras are off and she teaches me the basics. We did a football contest. I do pretty well and then give her the Aaron Rodgers belt!
Catch Erin Andrews, Eddie George and Joey Harrington on the FOX College Football Pregame Show Saturdays at 2:30 p.m. ET/11:30 a.m. PT.

Why does it hurt when I pee?
Patient : I have been urinating frequently for a bout a week now, I fell like i have to go every minute. When I do urinate i'm not bleeding like im going through my cycle but there is a tent of blood and it hurts when i urinate and just throughout the day.Could this be a kidney stone,sists on my ovaries, or a urinary infection? Please help.
Doctor : Burning sensation upon peeing and presence of blood in urine are symptoms of urethritis (inflammed urethra – passageway y of urine). If you are sexually active, it is very important to wash your genitalia right after sexual intercourse. The reason for this is exchange of fluids happen during sex. Resident bacteria (harmless bacteria) are present in the male and female urethra. However, the bacteria in males are a different species than that in the female. Hence, it can cause infection. Also, trauma to the urethra can happen, more so if the sex is wild (since the urethra is very close to the vagina). Therefore, washing the genitalia after sex usually prevents urethritis. In your case, try drinking lots of cranberry juice. It has an effect of detaching the bacteria from the urethra. However, I strongly suggest for you to see a doctor since a urine test, and probably antibiotics, may be needed. Do not take this condition lightly because if it is left untreated, it can potentially invade upstream (urinary bladder up to the kidney) or the blood. It is unlikely it is a kidney stone because if kidney stones do pass successfully from the kidneys to urethra, there will be excruciating pain during its passage and relief once it has passed. Presence of kidney stones, however, makes a person more prone to develop urinary tract infections. If you are not sexually active, poor hygiene and low water intake can also predispose to urinary tract infections. It is also advisable to change pantyliners, pads or tampons at least every 12 hours to decrease the risk of urinary tract infections. I do hope this helps.

An old-fashioned Hollywood factory worker, Adam Sandler has churned out 30 movies since 1998. Some were so bad you wanted to leave the theatre halfway through, even if you were watching on a plane. But you forgave him, even the terrible ones - Little Nicky and Bedtime Stories - figuring a goof-off will occasionally goof up.
Sandler remains true to his regular-guy constituency by making fun of the movies he stars in - I'm a movie star, what a joke! But he does more than that. Sandler's real shtick is satirizing being a grownup. Whether he's a juvenile delinquent playing golf ( Happy Gilmore) or an Israeli commando extinguishing fire with hummus ( You Don't Mess With the Zohan), Sandler's characters are usually 45 going on 14.
Which brings us to his latest attempt at postponing adult responsibility, Just Go with It. Sandler plays Danny Maccabee, a selfish plastic surgeon with a sure-fire line for the ladies: Please save me, I'm unhappily married.
Yeah, that always works. Women love whiny lost causes. Pretend to smoke and leave your clothes all around the house and you'll have a harem.
Well, it works in Adam Sandler movies. Whenever Danny wanders into a bar, he goes into his act: On with the ring and sad, sad face.
"My wife beats me."
"Here, put your hand on a true heart," a 20-year-old woman says, placing Sandler's hand on her breast.
Life gets more complicated when Dr. Feelgood shows up at a party, and who should stroll up to him (in jiggling slow-motion) but Brooklyn Decker, the Sports Illustrated swimsuit cover girl. She plays a schoolteacher who falls in love with Sandler on the spot, even though he forgets to put on his ring. They spend the night on the beach, decorated in moonlight.
In the morning, she finds a wedding ring in his pants.
Uh-oh, our lying fraud is in trouble. What would a woman want him to do? That's right, he tells a bigger lie. Danny asks his medical assistant Katherine (Jennifer Aniston) to pretend to be his wife. That way he can divorce her and marry the sexy cover girl.
You know what happens, but the safely familiar is what makes Adam Sandler movies such an easy chore. Just Go with It is exactly that - sort of. Sandler and Aniston have fun at the office with Dr. Danny's patients, especially a woman with too much face work who can't retrieve a cocked eyebrow. Danny and Katherine have a good laugh, and their fun is infectious.
Sandler and Aniston easily pass the only important test of romantic comedies: We like them and want them to like each other.
If only the other cast members were as good. Nicole Kidman gets away with a small part as Aniston's scheming college nemesis. But Decker's best moments are all in slow motion, and the scant comic support comes from Sandler regular Nick Swardon playing a Prussian nitwit.
Despite the spotty supporting cast and absurd plot, Just Go with It will likely prove irresistible to Sandler loyalists, especially after a recent Super Bowl promo featuring the cast in Hawaii - a sight for cold eyes in February.
Speaking of which, the Super Bowl MVP is awarded a trip to Disneyland. Maybe in the future, he should be awarded a part in an Adam Sandler movie. There is no bigger male fantasy land.
Just Go With It
- Directed by Dennis Dugan
- Written by Timothy Dowling, Allan Loeb and I.A.L. Diamond
- Starring Adam Sandler, Jennifer Aniston, Nicole Kidman, Brooklyn Decker and Nick Swardson
- Classification: PG

Hyderabad: The magnificent capital of Andhra Pradesh is wearing a festive look for the ongoing international film festival for children. It is also ready for one more festive event Saturdays TVS Cup tri-series potboiler between India and New Zealand.
And make no mistake here. This is not going to be any childs play. It is a match with almost everything at stake, at least as far as the whole of India is concerned. Missing out on a berth in the final at home is still way beyond the imagination of the average Indian cricket fan. But to avoid the blues, the so called Men in Blue will have to produce something they have not consistently been able to after a spirited showing in the World Cup.
Points earned by the teams so far in this tournament are not relevant anymore. Only a win, for either team, will ensure a ticket to Tuesdays final at Eden Gardens. There is some encouragement from an unexpected front for Sourav Gangulys team though. His counterpart Stephen Fleming has been ruled out of this virtual semi-final.
The New Zealand skipper, according to coach Ashley Ross, has aggravated a chronic lower abdominal muscle strain. So Fleming is out and Chris Cairns is set to don the skippers cap. Allrounder Paul Hitchcock is also not available due to injury, and the visitors have just 12 to pick from for such a crunch match.
He failed Fridays fitness test. It seems the hectic schedule has taken its toll. But we have players in our ranks to make up for such losses. Thats the strength of our team, said Ross.
Fleming is one of the better captains in the world today and a fine batsman too. Missing him is a loss, but we have other significant leaders in this team. Leading is a process and captaincy is just holding a position. Its difficult but we are sure we can overcome this.
Indias problem, however, is totally different. This is a match where nothing other than winning will matter and finding the right combination is bothering Sourav and coach John Wright. They are keen to field three seamers, and yet, finding it difficult to make the necessary adjustments.
If they do go in with Zaheer Khan, Ajit Agarkar and Avishkar Salvi, either a batsman (read Mohammed Kaif) or a spinner will have to be dispensed with. And with Harbhajan Singh fit again and given the good showing by Murali Kartik in the Bangalore carnage, its unlikely that either of the tweakers will be dropped.
This virtually tells the story. If Salvi does come in, most probably Kaif will get the axe. Anil Kumble, for the record, didnt come to Chandrababu Naidu country with the rest of the players due to family engagements following his fathers death. He joined his teammates late in the evening. The leg-spinners chances of playing are slim.
We know its a do-or-die match and have been in this situation earlier. We are under no pressure, its just that we have to go out and get things right. We are not worried at all, said Sourav.
He did say that, but fact is that a look at the Lal Bahadur Shastri Stadium pitch did cause some worry. It had a layer of grass on the eve of the last ODI its going to host since a new cricket stadium is being built here and expected to be ready by next year. The green cover, quite expectedly, was ordered chopped off. The curator and his aides, sporting an apologetic look, had no choice but to oblige.
The ground played host to the Afro-Asian Games football event just a fortnight back and withstood heavy showers during the competition. To the credit of the people responsible, it looks alright for an international match.
Sourav chose to underplay the absence of Fleming. He is a good player. But we are prepared to play against a team, not individuals. He was dead right but did not say that the need of the hour is a concerted effort from a team, rather than that of a few individuals like Sachin Tendulkar.
India will have to remember, New Zealand are still to lose against them on the current tour. Its a precious record that they are chasing of staying unbeaten in either form of the game on a tour of India. Letting them achieve that will not stand India in any good stead before the stern test Down Under.
India (likely): Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Sourav Ganguly, V.V.S. Laxman, Rahul Dravid, Yuvraj Singh, Mohammed Kaif/Avishkar Salvi, Harbhajan Singh, Ajit Agarkar, Murali Kartik, Zaheer Khan.
New Zealand (from): Chris Nevin, Lou Vincent, Craig McMillan, Scott Styris, Chris Cairns, Chris Harris, Jacob Oram, Brendon McCullum, Daniel Vettori, Ian Butler, Darryl Tuffey, Kyle Mills.
Umpires: David Shepherd, K. Hariharan. TV umpire: I.Sivaram.
Hours of play: 2.30 pm to 6 pm. 6.45 pm to 10.15 pm.

Crocodile breeding season is underway
Residents of north-western West Australia are being warned the crocodile breeding season is underway and the reptiles will be more aggressive than usual.
The Department of Environment and Conservation says saltwater and freshwater crocodiles become more territorial in December and January.
The animals are also more likely to be on the move as the first wet season rains wash through the northern waterways.
Wildlife officer Jai Latham says people need to take responsibility for their own safety.
"People need to be cautious when frequenting recreation areas that are inhabited by salties," he said.
"Crocodile warnings signs are situated at various locations where people launch boats and fish, however not all water-ways are signposted.
"The absence of a crocodile signs does not necessarily mean the absence of crocodiles."

Parks Canada has delayed making a decision on a controversial multi-million dollar tourist attraction proposed for Jasper National Park in order to digest the flood of public comments it has received.
The Rocky Mountain park's superintendent, Greg Fenton, was originally set to announce on Tuesday whether Glacier Discovery Walk, an interpretative trail with a suspended glass walkway, would be given the green light, turned down or sent back to the proponent for more information.
Brewster Travel Canada, which is based in Banff, Alta. and has U.S. ownership, is spearheading the concept, which if approved would be built along the Icefields Parkway, near the Athabasca Glacier and could attract close to 263,000 visitors a year.
But the company has run into significant opposition from local environmentalists, who have lobbied against the development and almost 180,000 people have signed an online petition posted by global activist group, Avaaz.org, which expresses concern about privatization in the national parks. Parks said it has received 2,200 formal submissions from the public.
"There was a large amount of comments and we're just taking the time we need to comprehensively review it," said Parks Canada spokeswoman Alisson Ogle.
The 169-page environmental assessment is also being reviewed, she said.
A decision should be made by mid-February, according to Parks.

This past weekend my family had the privilege of visiting Ukerewe Island, located in Lake Victoria. We stayed in a friend's home while there, and were warmly welcomed as family. A short walk down the road was the Anglican Church, which we attended on Sunday morning. As I sat on a wooden bench and listened to my father's sermon, my thoughts drifted to discontentment of "these horribly uncomfortable benches!" I, however, scolded myself for having those thoughts, for I am not being persecuted for my faith. I am freely worshiping God on an island out in a big lake in Africa. I have no right to be complaining of uncomfortable wooden benches, foreign languages, and my father's long sermons.
I am currently reading a book by Eric Ludy entitled, The Bravehearted Gospel. This book is about how our modern churches are losing the masculine side of things. We focus on love, peace, joy, and all those comfortable thoughts. We are all about compassion and God's amazing grace. We may not forget that we are sinners, but we try to cover it all up in saying that "God will forgive me, for he is a God of love and mercy." Maybe God will forgive us, but in the meantime we should be trying to fix the problems. We should try to avoid sin. We should aspire to be a church of martyrs. We should walk the straight and narrow path. We should not let others put our faith down. We should defend Christianity. Yes, we need the feminine feelings in church, but we also need the masculine bravery and fixers in the church. Just as God inhabited both the male and female side of things, so also our churches need the right balance of the two.
My thoughts drifted to that book as I sat in the back row and surveyed the room of about 70 people. The benches were full. Each person had a Bible. These Bibles were perfect in looks, for they were tattered and stained from obvious years of use. These people valued this book, even down to the youth.
The floors were concrete, and full of scratches, cracks, and holes. The benches were made of rough boards, and were obviously handmade. Some of the boards were broken, warped, and stained. There was no ceiling, just the rusted tin roof and trusses up above. The choir sang in a cappella, either because of no electricity on this morning or because the equipment wasn't working properly. The congregation joined in with singing and clapping.
What am I trying to say in all this? In Africa life is real. Some people live in small huts made of mud bricks, and some people live in bigger cement houses. Everyone cooks on fires, eats the whole animal, and bathes in a bucket. To a westerner, it seems odd and like the life of the poor. To an African, it is simply life. So as the life of an African is real, the faith of an African is real. The spiritual is so important that is it intertwined with the physical. Whether Christian, Muslim, or anything else it plays a huge role in their lives. Granted, you will find the hypocrites and nominal religious people wherever you go, but for the most part if you are a Christian, you strive to live like Christ and are faithful in your prayers, praise, and church going. If you are Muslim, you have prayer many times a day. For a Muslim, you dress differently, showing the world that you are of the Islamic religion and are not ashamed of it.
As I've been reading Eric Ludy's book, I think of the African Churches I've been to. They're real, nitty-gritty, genuine, bold, and also full of love. Yes, they have problems and are not perfect, but that is expected everywhere because we are churches filled with human beings. However, the faith of a person is deemed important here. It's mixed into their lives, like flour and water are mixed to make bread.
We can learn from these Christians. Our faith and our life should be mixed. We cannot get bread by only having flour; neither can we can get to heaven by simply having life. We must mix ingredients into life in order to obtain eternal life. These people have challenged me to live my life in the faith and truth of Christ.

Talon Build Guide by Solstice Reaver

Talon Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Early Game
Talon falls off late game if you can't excel in the early game. Talon is a master assassin, so you want to poke before closing the gap to pick up the kill. If needed, grab some mana pots, you might need it. Hit your enemy with rake as much as possible, then close the gap with cutthroat, and utilize his passive.
Mid Game
About this time, you should have taken the top(or mid) lane tower out, so you should start to roam. go to the different lanes and pick off the APC and the ADC. It feeds you, and shuts them down. Sometime soon team fights will start to break out. Jump in with u E, hit as many as you can with rake, hit the adc(or APC) with a basic attack and quickly hit your Q. pop your ult and its done.
Late Game
Continue picking off the weaker enemies, and get fed. Everything comes easly after that. Push all the lanes you can as far as you can, utilize the fact the when u hit his Q, it resets his attack timer. With it, it will allow you to do massive dmg to both towers and enemy champions. All thats left is to push it all the way to their base and win.

As part of his marketing class at Concordia University, Jalal Hasbini drummed up two BlackBerry Pearls from RIM to give away in a youtube video contest. All you need to is reply to Jalal's video above with your own, showing why you realllllly need that new BlackBerry Pearl. The contest is aimed at Canadian Student, age 18 - 24. You can watch the video above for more details.
Are you a Canadian Student, Age 18 - 24, Wanting a Free BlackBerry Pearl Courtesy of RIM? If so, Watch This!
Reader comments
Are you a Canadian Student, Age 18 - 24, Wanting a Free BlackBerry Pearl Courtesy of RIM? If so, Watch This!
I'm part of that demographic, but have no interest in a pearl. Is anyone? I agree with nzero
lol. oh lord
Have we learned nothing from silicon valley and the IT moguls out there? ahaz86, you are a student still so maybe you just need to learn up a bit. Dress shirt, suit, tie doesn't equal success for one. Secondly, he's targeting other students. Being in business yourself you must be able to see the reason for sticking with this attire.
First of all, thanks to Kevin for spreading out the word.
I would like to note a few things:
1. We had no idea that Crackberry was running a similar project. It's not like we took Crackberry's idea and implemented it on our own.
2. This contest is "part" of a Blackberry campaign, this is not our focus. In fact, we were scratching this project but since RIM was generous enough, we're not dropping it.
3. I'm a business student and I have my own company. I've executed way more important projects than a contest and I've dressed up for them. But come on, this is IT, learn from the best. Take Steve Jobs or Bill Gates as an example. It's not what you wear makes you who you are.
4. Finally, if there's any constructive feedback to be said, I'm more than happy to address. But please do not bash someone's work just because you felt like commenting.
P.S: I am not a Canadian, I am a student at Concordia. And for those who don't know, JMSB is proven to be a better business school than McGill.
A Pearl?? Pfft!! Talk about cheap. My sister just got that phone, and SHES 9!!!

done easy ;D
does it cost balens to play lol
When will dummy r2 put the blood demon in war tune.
They have…. but it is for cashers only atm… they need to make money first then release to free players once when release the next euadmon.
Also someone asked in forums about the new titles for basic / expert summoners titles.
Every one thinks they are for the cards, but I think they are for the sub class to be released in patch 5.9 or 6.0…. like China got back in video posted in youtube I saw once.
They preload the data and forget to hide before it is released.
Those summoner titles are for the return player event. You have to invite a certain amount of returning players. So it is possible to get them now.
Thank you for the information. 🙂
Still hope we get sub classes next patch.

The Town of Gawler, in collaboration with the Barossa, Light and Mallala Councils, is developing a Regional Disability Access and Inclusion Plan.
The aim of the Plan is to improve access for all and increase the number of opportunities for people with a disability that live, work, play, volunteer and visit in Gawler and the surrounding Council areas.
This Plan will outline proactive strategies to enhance Council policies, practices, services and facilities to improve access for people with a disability.
In order to respond to the aspirations and needs of people living with disability, community participation and input into the process is crucial.
A series of community workshops were held in each of the participating Council areas. The Gawler workshops took place in August.
A draft plan is currently being developed and will be available for community feedback soon.

Life and Freaky Times of Uncle Luke Trailer (2012)
30 June 2012 10 mins
'Life and Freaky Times of Uncle Luke' A modern Miami adaptation of the 1962 French short film 'La Jetee', the film recounts Luke's (Uncle Luke, legendary rapper from the hip-hop group 2 Live Crew) rise to fame as he changes the face of hip-hop and fights for first amendment rights, and later as he ushers Miami into a golden era of peace and prosperity as Mayor. Everything changes when a nuclear meltdown at Turkey Point Power Plant turns Miami into a radioactive wasteland filled with mutants, and Luke is the only survivor left unscathed. Directed by visual and performance artist Jillian Mayer, the entire movie takes place in custom built installations which distort and play with visual perspectives

Welcome to Salt Spring Seeds' website and online heritage and heirloom seed catalog
Dear U.S Customers, Because of new Customs regulations, we regret we can no longer send seeds to the United States. (Mar 27/17)
This is our 30th year of promoting a safe, sustainable and local agriculture. It is very gratifying to now see so many individuals and communities embracing this concept! We hope that some of the vegetables, beans, grains and herbs in this catalogue will help you to become more self-reliant in food and medicine.
All our seeds are organically grown, untreated, open-pollinated and non-GMO. We grow all our own seeds and sell only our most recent harvest. We fill orders year-round and usually within a day or two of receiving your requests.
We are pleased to be offering over 80 seed varieties that are New for 2016 and 2017 and would appreciate feedback from those of you who try some of them.
My new book is now available and listed in the Books & DVDs. It's called The Power of Pulses: Saving the World with Peas, Beans, Chickpeas, Favas and Lentils. With all the talk about how to address climate change, what is rarely mentioned are the foods we eat and the ways we grow them. Yet industrial agriculture is responsible for over 50% of greenhouse gas emissions. I have posted my Foreword to the book to give you an idea of what to expect.
As of January 18, I have another new book, even though I wrote it 45 years ago! It is a forager's guide to edible and medicinal wild plants that is called Some Useful Wild Plants. It went through 7 editions in the 1970s and now has been updated and reprinted. You'll find it under Books & DVDs.
Number of Seeds in a Packet. Click on any of the crops on the left side menu and you'll find the number of seeds in a packet at the bottom of the page. We never get complaints about not enough seeds!
Printed Catalogue. We'd be happy to mail you the printed seed catalogue for $2.
Phone orders. Sorry but we don't yet accept orders over the phone. You can send a cheque or money order through the mail if you don't wish to pay online. If so, you can choose the Pay By Cheque option after you've selected all your seeds.
Overseas Orders? We send our Overseas orders airmail through Canada Post.
Questions? I usually answer emails and phone calls the day I receive them. email@example.com 1-250-537-5269
Thank you for supporting small agriculture. Best wishes for happy sowing and great growing in 2017!
Dan Jason

Fused Glass Abstract Large Turquoise Blue Green Organic Bowl
I absolutely love this shape and the colors flow perfectly. This gorgeous kiln formed glass bowl definitely makes a statement. Be sure to enlarge the images to catch a glimpse of the secret owl. He was unintentional but a happy surprise. This piece was hand painted in sea green with touches of purple. It was capped with an additional layer of clear glass making this bowl food safe. All glass is hand-cut and each piece requires multiple firings in the kiln to achieve the final shape, form and high gloss finish.
Made of sturdy 6 mm glass.
Diameter: 10" at widest point. Height: 3.75"
Food Safe. Hand-washing is recommended.
All glass pieces are triple cushioned for guaranteed safe arrival. Ships via Priority Mail within one business day.

|Quoting Gonzalo (Thread starter):
Anyone with him on this one ????
|Quoting ikramerica (Reply 2):
The A330NEO would be in service already with GEnx bleed and likely T1000 bleed versions and 7000-7500nm range, hurting the 787 badly considering all the problems and delays
|Quoting Polot (Reply 6):
At least not yet, they have several on order. Wikipedia says they will seat 288, but I don't know how accurate that is.
|Quoting scbriml (Reply 7):
And yet, without spending a penny on the mythical A330neo, Airbus has somehow managed to sell 600 A330s since the 787 was launched.
|Quoting Roseflyer (Reply 3):
The problem is, I think Airbus has little interest in the A330 NEO since all it would do is take orders away from the A350 or compete heavily on price with the 787 which is likely a better airplane.
|Quoting Roseflyer (Reply 3):
I think Airbus has little interest in the A330 NEO...
|Quoting Roseflyer (Reply 3):
The result is that the A350-800 will not have that good of fuel burn numbers compared to an A330-300 or a 787
|Quoting Stitch (Reply 11):
GE demands a strong RoI before they will build an engine
|Quoting Stitch (Reply 11):
they'd demand exclusivity before they resurrected the GEnx-1A72.
|Quoting astuteman (Reply 13):
The numbers indicate the 787-8 having a 5% fuel burn advantage over the A350-800 and the A350-800 having a 2% fuel burn advantage over the 787-9
|Quoting astuteman (Reply 13):
Whilst accepting that he is absolutely not the gospel
|Quoting ferpe (Reply 15):
As I can make an A330neo in 5 minutes I made one
|Quoting ferpe (Reply 15):
So there you have it within say 3-5%, now your comments if it will be worth it.
|Quoting Aviaponcho (Reply 17):
So how 2 GenX2b can be 4t heavier ?
|Quoting Roseflyer (Reply 3):
I think Airbus consciously made the decision to do this since the 787 had captured so many orders and taken such a large section of the market.
|Quoting india1 (Reply 21):
Wonder if a protracted grounding of the 787 will tip the balance either ways - 330 neo vs optimised 358? Your thoughts?
|Quoting sweair (Reply 24):
What engine does your A330neo have Ferpe?
|Quoting ikramerica (Reply 27):
Something is amiss with your method. The numbers just don't seem right. The A330 looks like a dog by these numbers but in service it is not.
|Quoting ferpe (Reply 18):
It is not, I found the wrong figures, the GEnx-2B67 weighs 5626kg and the T700 4785kg. So that diff + a larger nacelle and a longer pylon (fan is 105'' instead of 97'', you need to hang the engine higher/longer forward) + sharlets and wing reinforcement makes for some 2.9t extra. For the 333sl I have assumed 2*300 kg extra as we now compare with 333 classic as well, for the neo the sharklets only load with 200kg as they can share the reinforcements with the engines. Voila:
|Quoting EPA001 (Reply 26):
If the difference is 8 inches in diameter, then in metrics that should be 0.23 meters.
|Quoting ikramerica (Reply 27):
Something is amiss with your method. The numbers just don't seem right. The A330 looks like a dog by these numbers but in service it is not.
|Quoting Aviaponcho (Reply 30):
Don't you think that sharklets can help with a higher initial FL on A330 ?
|Quoting ikramerica (Reply 2):
The A330NEO would be in service already with GEnx bleed and likely T1000 bleed versions and 7000-7500nm range, hurting the 787 badly considering all the problems and delays, and the A350 could be squarely focused on the the 777 rather than trying to also worry about the 789.
|Quoting Aviaponcho (Reply 30):
Thank you Ferpe
I was just pointing that the GenX is not that heavier than the heaviest of the 3 engine that are currently powering the A330... there's a 2 t gap between the lightest and the heaviest i think.
So GenX might not be so hard to mount under the A330 wing.

You and everyone else seem to forget one very important thing when you make comments about an A330NEO. The engines weren't really ready at the time. Had Airbus launched the A330NEO then, it would not have been as competitive as an A330NEO launched today due to the amount of improvements both RR and GE have been able to make to their engines due to the delays in the 787 program
|Quoting flightsimer (Reply 32):
Also considering, nobody knew the 787 was going to be delayed like it was, why would they order a plane that might get you 5-10% fuel savings when you could order a plane giving 20% fuel savings in the same time frame?
|Quoting Aviaponcho (Reply 30):
One difficult task for airbus will be the transition from A330 to A350 on the current A330 FAL. How many A330 FAL's are there ?
|Quoting ikramerica (Reply 2):
But had Airbus instead canceled the original A350 in favor of an A330NEO + A359/10 it would have made more sense.

The great complaint at the time was that the original A350 was "just" a souped up A330 - and most everyone here and elsewhere crapped all over it.
|Quoting Wingtips56 (Reply 41):
Yes, and as I recall, the airlines actually buying airplanes, not us sit-at-home-speculators, complained that it was just a 330 redux, and they wanted a larger capacity frame, hence the 350XWB..extra wide body.
What else are they doing with the army of engineers they have after the A400 and the A350-10 is finished?

There is plenty of potential work left after the A350-1000 EIS in 2017. For example:
- studying the A350-900R (if ultra long haul still makes sense by then)
- launching and building the A380-900
- studying an A320 successor

I have long held the view that Airbus should consider an all-new proper A300/A310/A330 successor to complement the A350 in its product range, aiming at competitive advantages that are clearly differentiated from those of the A350. I see this as a light-weight wide-body, seating 250-300 passengers, that is uncompromisingly optimized for short-to-medium haul routes. I would also engineer it for good field performance, to allow it to fly into airports that don't usually see widebody service.

text: Today, signal processing research has a significantly widened its scope compared with just a few years ago [4], and machine learning has been an important technical area of the signal processing society. Since 2006, deep learning—a new area of machine learning research—has emerged [7], impacting a wide range of signal and information processing work within the traditional and the new, widened scopes. Various workshops, such as the 2009 ICML Workshop on Learning Feature Hierarchies; the 2008 NIPS Deep Learning Workshop: Foundations and Future Directions; and the 2009 NIPS Workshop on Deep Learning for Speech Recognition and Related Applications as well as an upcoming special issue on deep learning for speech and language processing in IEEE Transactions on Audio, Speech, and Language Processing (2010) have been devoted exclusively to deep learning and its applications to classical signal processing areas. We have also seen the government sponsor research on deep learning.
