Planning a trip to these cities next year in May. Have much to do in preparation but let us begin by asking a few basic questions. We will be staying on points at the Hilton Barcelona and the Westin Palace in Madrid. We are two seniors who travel a lot usually one trip to Europe and one to Asia each year. Fairly mobile and we enjoy walking about visiting the major sights, churches, cathedrals, basilicas, but not really into the museum scene. Shopping is high on our list- not luxury designer venues but more of the local designers and markets. Also looking for good places to eat the local specialties but not expensive places ( no chi chi places as we are not gourmet diners).
1) Need to know the culture in these cities as it relates to when restaurants open and close as we understand there may be very different times when lunch and dinner hours are observed (a mid day break?) .
2) Metro - want to use this to get around, what to know?
3) Local do's and don't as pertaining to the culture there.
4) Taxis- what to be aware of here?
Ok these will do for a start, many more to come as we get into the details more.

Good morning Olive! Sounds like another lovely Europe trip for you and Bill. Wish I could help, but, about the only thing I recall about my short stay in Barcelona was that people had dinner very late in the evening.
Enjoy your planning.

Having stayed at the Westin Palace, I just want to say that I think the hotel is the perfect choice in Madrid. A beautiful hotel in a wonderful location.
Report Abuse
The Spanish usually have a light breakfast. Lunch for many is the big meal of the day, the rush will be at 2 PM. There is tapas between 5-7 and dinner at 10 PM, although most restaurants open at 9 PM.
In Madrid and Barcelona there are places open all day which cater to international dining times. But most of the better places are closed between 4 PM- 9PM.
Look at the high speed train The AVE between Madrid and Barcelona, it will save time a lot of time associated with air travel.
Both cities have extensive metros. In Barcelona look for places in the area called The Eixample. Many tourists stay in and around Las Ramblas, but it more touristy and noisy.

I too stayed at the Westin Plaza last year and it is a great hotel. Right up the street is the Plaza Del Sol which has a lot of shopping areas including the El Corte Ingles department store. There are a lot of places to eat in the vicinity.
Dinner is usually late-after 9 pm but tapas restaurants are busy earlier and right across the street from the hotel is a very cheap sandwich place called 100 Montaditos for a quick bite(try the olives very good).
Can't help with the rest of your questions but you will love Spain.

be sure to read Maribel's guides for both locations. it is super helpful and informative.

You have asked about when restaurants OPEN. In the core of Madrid, they OPEN around 7:30pm-8:00pm for dinner.
HOWEVER, this is different from when locals come to eat. They would not bother to come to restaurants until 10:00pm or later. Until then, you eat with other tourists.
Chocolatería San Gines for Churros with Chocolate. No need to worry about open hours. They are practically always open when you are awake.
Cocico Madrileno is a local stew dish served as a course. While it is not bargain, it is not a gourmet dish either. Be sure to protect your clothes from splashes using your napkin, local do this, when the server comes back to empty the content of the stew jar onto the soup plate.

<Local do's and don't as pertaining to the culture there.> The Spanish are in general very laid-back and welcoming, you know of the lunch normally being the main meal of the day and dinner from about 9 to 11-12 pm. Just be good
<Also looking for good places to eat the local specialties but not expensive places> Some suggestions from many visits here the past ten years:
Small and family-owned Ca l'Estevet, one of those timeless places: http://www.restaurantestevet.com/
Can Culleretes from 1789 (the oldest in Barcelona and the second oldest in Spain) serves fine, affordable traditional Catalan Food in the absolute best atmosphere. Run by some grown up ladies, effecient and no fuss service. http://www.culleretes.com/en/home
No Place to get a more genuine Barcelona lunch than in La Perla, at the foot of Montjuic. Lunch only: http://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g187497-d1081650-Reviews-La_perla-Barcelona_Catalonia.html
Casa Alberto from 1827 for traditional Madrid fare with a modern touch, also a fine, little tapas bar in front. Popular with both tourists and locals:
Casa Manolo, just behind the Parliament, very typical and famous for the croquetas: https://11870.com/pro/casa-manolo
And you must have some tapas in Casa Revuelta in C/Latoneros, 3, just off Plaza Mayor, a fabulous little place, very popular with locals. Fried cod tapa to die for as well as many other goodies: http://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g187514-d2457354-Reviews-Casa_Revuelta-Madrid.html

I eat whenever I want to, which is usually around 8 pm in a restaurant. I also do not want a huge meal at lunch. I've never had a problem finding a restaurant open at 8 pm. I would never eat very late at night just before bed, don't sleep well (besides I'd be starving). I don't plan anything special for lunch, but never had a problem finding something light to eat in a bar or cafe or something like that.
Now I do use the metro a lot, and it's pretty decent in Madrid, so no special tips if you've used one before. Of course, be aware of pickpockets and don't have belongings carelessly open or easily available. The best deal for tourists is usually a ticket that covers multiple days, you can buy 1,2,3,5 and 7 day cards. It gets cheaper with more days, but runs about 6 euro a day. But then unlimited use of metro and bus in the city. Of coruse, if you don't intend to get around a lot, single tickets could be cheaper, they are about 1.5-2 euro, I believe.

"I've never had a problem finding a restaurant open at 8 pm."
I second that. We were just in Madrid and Barcelona, and just about every restaurant was open no later than 8.

Another nod to the Westin Palace in Madrid, loved it there and very well located. Close to Retiro Park, and in other direction, lots of shopping, restaurants, etc. San Gines for churros and chocolate as Greg mentioned. That was actually the first place we went after arriving on the overnight flight from US. Stopped to check into hotel and check bags, then to San Gines for the churros--lots of locals at that time of the morning, they opened at around 9 am as i recall. Also, while it is a late dinner country in general, we also found no problem finding places to eat earlier. And we really enjoyed eating at the Mercado San Migule in Madrid, very close to Plaza Mayor. Just loved going from place to place getting a taste of a lot of different things. We liked that better than going to a more formal dinner/lunch, so I would recommend checking that out at least once.
In Barcelona, again found many places to eat earlier, and we often went to tapas places and had that for dinner, while "locals" might have some tapas at that time with a drink and then go out to a real dinner much later. But the tapas was excellent for dinner for us, again could get a few small dishes and share everything.
Enjoy the trip!

<In Barcelona, again found many places to eat earlier>
Plenty of such places in the most touristy parts of town, but I would in general recommend places in Barcelona that opens late. Of course exceptions to the rule, for example 7 Portes, an excellent restaurant with the best atmosphere and an institution in town, is open all day. http://www.7portes.com/angles/index.php

Yes we like simple places as opposed to formal sit down restaurants. I like the idea of ordering a variety of tapas as our meal. Where are the good food courts in both cities? Also when we are the mood for hamburgers or pizza are these readily available?
Report Abuse
Please note, while you can make a meal of tapas, that is not the tradition in Spain. In Madrid and Barcelona, for example, you can go tasca hopping, where you sample the best of each tapas bar with some wine and then onto the next one.
It is a point or ask for a dish, there is no table service for tapas. It many places it is a family affair and in most the tradition is to throw the used paper napkin on the floor.
As I have never looked for a food court or ordered either a hamburguesa or pizza, thus someone else must advise you. There are, however, some American chains that might satisfy your need.

<Where are the good food courts in both cities?>
Some excellent tapas bars inside the Boqueria food market in Barcelona. Crowded, noisy, great atmosphere, great food: http://www.gardenista.com/posts/la-boqueria-market
Or go for tapas with the locals in Poble Sec: http://www.barcelonaturisme.com/wv3/en/enjoy/10/poble-sec,-from-bodega-to-bodega.html
In Barcelona you could have great burgers for example in Kiosko on the outskirts of vibrant and medieval El Born district. They mean business and have now opened five places around town:
In Madrid, I think you would like Mercado San Miguel, just off Plaza Mayor.
Or sample excellent tapas in some of the many great tapas bars in and around Calle Cava Baja, also close to Plaza Mayor: http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g187514-d313698-Reviews-Cava_Baja-Madrid.html

I often make a meal of tapas or raciones - I know it isn't the traditional thing for dinner, but it works. I'm not a big eater, and most of my trips to Spain have been for work, so I need to be up early in the morning - my north American self is just not used to eating a lot very late and then going straight to bed.

-Where are the good food courts in both cities-
El Nacional in Barcelona has several restaurants and bars. I believe they do not close, but serve at all times of the day. It is on the pricey side compared to some other places in Barcelona but not pricey by US standards.
I also love Mercato San Miguel in Madrid, recommended above.
My favorite pizza in Madrid is Piccolo Diavola.
They have killer Naples-style pizza at Nap in Barcelona.
-There is tapas between 5-7-
This has not really been my experience... most tapas places don't get rolling until 8 pm or so. 5 pm, people are still eating lunch or still full from it at least. Having said that you can find places in both cities where you can eat tapas at 5 pm..
Report Abuse
<There is tapas between 5-7> should most likely be there is tapas from about 7 onwards. Tapas is normally had before lunch and/or dinner.
Fully understand that many find it difficult to adjust to the Spanish meal hours, the menu del dia thing etc. But I strongly recommend to also go to places that stay with the regular Spanish hours. In general you will find much better food and atmosphere in such tapas bars and restaurants than in places that predominantly cater to people on the run and tourists.

The Best Shows in NYC This Week: METZ + Bully + Ratatat + Forth Wanderers + Yonatan Gat + Shiner + RJD2 + My Brightest Diamond + JD Samson + Buster Poindexter + Dead Stars + Pill + Air Waves + Donald Cumming + Yazan + EZTV + What Moon Things + MORE
Written by Patrick McNamara
It's January which means the music industry should (but doesn't) take the month off. It's slow as ice out there but there ARE some good bands playing this week whose HEAT will thaw the frost of your post holiday boredom.
I'd like to spend a couple quick seconds of your procrastination time talking to you today about those bands if I might.
Thank you for your time.
#1 METZ & Bully - Bowery Ballroom + MHOW - Wed/Thurs - January 13/14 - 2016 A.D.
Toronto's METZ is one of the best live bands on the planet. I told you this forever ago (well, four years ago) and I'm reiterating my factual statement today and I will never back down from it ever ever EVER (unless they suddenly start sucking out of nowhere but I just don't think they have it in them). And I'll tell you what, Bully is right there too (when I saw them open for Built to Spill this summer I was like "whoa!" and I hardly ever exclaim that at a show mostly I just exclaim "I SAID what's your CHEAPEST beer!"). Therefore, doing the math with my calculator I like to call Ziggy I am able to predict with 100% certainty that METZ and Bully's two shows together at Bowery and MHOW this week are going to RULE and really bring the HEAT. Your move, winter. See your frost in hell, sucka.
#2 Shiner - Saint Vitus - Fri/Sat - January 15/16 - 2016 A.D.
Kansas City's Shiner were loudly shredding and melodically sludging up the post hardcore post emo post ______ scene from 19-Naughty-2 (you down with O.P.P.?***) until the early 2000s and toured with Sunny Day Real Estate, Hum, Jawbox, The Jesus Lizard, Girls Against Boys and more bands you've probably heard of. They recently reunited and are playing shows again. Like this week at Saint Vitus as a matter of fact. TWICE. Please listen to this Shiner song and if you like what you hear consider going to one of the shows because that's what this is all about.
***Yeah, you know me.
As a bonus, please also enjoy this good Hum song. They're not playing this week or anything. But I DID just mention them so….stream it just for fun there are no rules here on this music blob.
#3 Ratatat - Hammerstein - Thursday - January 14 - 2016 A.D.
"I've been rapping for about 17 years…"
Let's see…. this Ratatat song originally came out in 2003 so that rapper has now been rapping for…. hang on, let me ask Ziggy….. 30 years! This duo keeps chugging along, man, and I guess it's no wonder they're still playing big places like Hammerstein. I believe it was Abraham Lincoln who once said, "All things pass but rocktronica lasts forever."
#4 Yonatan Gat (with PC Worship) - Mercury Lounge - January 15 - 2016 A.D.
Yonatan Gat (ex-Monotonix) is a guitar GOD.
Go to this show at Mercury Lounge. Get super sweaty. Give your utmost for His Highest.
#5 Forth Wanderers - Silent Barn - Friday - January 15 - 2016 A.D.
The following song by New Jersey's Forth Wanderers made my "Favorite Songs of 2015" list and it technically didn't even come out in 2015 it was released at the end of 2014 so THAT'S how good it is (remember: there are no rules on Whoa My Blobness). They open the action at Silent Barn on Friday and will be a headliner in no time. So help me blob.
(FW: please tour with Courtney Barnett - I thank you.)
Other notable shows this week = RJD2 at Brooklyn Bowl + My Brightest Diamond at Rockwood Music Hall + JD Samson at The Bell House + Buster Poindexter at City Winery + Dead Stars at Shea Stadium + Pill at Aviv + Panic! At The Disco at (le) poisson rouge + Fern Mayo at Silen Barn + Air Waves at Shea Stadium + Creepoid at Trans-Pecos + Donald Cumming at Mercury Lounge + Ryan Hemsworth at Output + Yazan at The Gutter + EZTV at Baby's All Right + What Moon Things at Aviv
Click here to see ALL of this week's shows
I hope this article about good bands warmed you up.
Oh, January. Never change.

PEACHES Geldof's older sister today paid tribute to her, saying she would never be forgotten.
Her poignant words echo that of their father Bob Geldof who called the socialite the 'wildest and wittiest' among us.
Fifi Trixibelle today posted a picture on her Instagram account of her and her sister pulling faces in the garden when they were younger, accompanied by a message which read: "My beautiful baby sister … Gone but never forgotten. I love you, Peaches x."
Peaches' father Bob Geldof that the family was "beyond pain".
In a statement he said: "She was the wildest, funniest, cleverest, wittiest and the most bonkers of all of us.
"Writing 'was' destroys me afresh. What a beautiful child. How is this possible that we will not see her again? How is that bearable?
"We loved her and will cherish her forever. How sad that sentence is.
"Tom and her sons Astala and Phaedra will always belong in our family, fractured so often, but never broken."

A sixties journey of spiritual discovery, with the twist that perpetual seeker Julia (Kate Winslet) drags her small daughters Lucy and Bea (Carrie Mullan, Bella Riza) along on the road to self-enlightenment. Disenchanted with cold, gray England and an
unsatisfying relationship with her children's self-centered father, Julia decamps to Morocco, hoping to make sense of her life through Sufism. Without money or regular work, they wind up in a run-down hotel frequented by prostitutes, anxiously awaiting all-too infrequent assistance from Julia's
neglectful ex. The children are initially enchanted by the exotic colors and smells of North Africa, and Lucy is captivated by Bilal (Said Taghmaoui), a street entertainer who becomes Julia's gentle and loyal lover. But eight-year-old Bea is frustrated by their aimless existence. She longs for
school and discipline and an ordered home life, particularly after the makeshift family takes an extended trip to Bilal's remote hometown, where it's made painfully clear what outsiders they are and will always be. Based on the autobiographical novel by Esther Freud (which owes its title to a word
game played by two girls still young enough to value words for sound rather than meaning), this delicate, visually ravishing story of twisted family ties rests on a quartet of phenomenal performances, made more remarkable by the fact that two of them are by young children. Filmmaker Gillies
MacKinnon doesn't try to tell his story through the eyes of the open and innocent Lucy, as the novel does. But its earlier sections capture brilliantly the slightly addled wonder of Europeans in a land of 1000 exotic sights and sounds. The film's gradual slide into a darker vision of the casual
selfishness and presumption that often lay at the heart of Westerners' mind-bending journeys to the East is subtle and quietly devastating.

So as this is my third monthly Favorited Fun and Fabulous Links post, I think I'm now safe in saying that this may well be a regular spot on the blog. I've decided to try and stick to the fourth Sunday of each month... we'll see how that goes! Meanwhile, enjoy your Sunday with a romp through this fabulous lot :)
Megan's inspired me to layer my faux fur gilet (vest) over a floral maxi. Just need to get a patterned maxi now - I lurrrrrve this 70s inspired dress. And this one.
Patti's playful poncho/sweatshirt hybrid is one of the coolest pieces I've seen in ages.
Just about the best Dress Down Friday work outfit I've ever seen thanks to Ann's "Nothing to Wear" t-shirt.
I can't get enough of Design Seeds' colour palette ideas (the photos are so beautiful in themselves).
Alyson ponders why should we keep our age a secret. Something you won't find me doing, ever: I'm 42 and a half, you know (she says in an 82 year old's voice).

Sport's for us older 'girls' too, you know. Adele says "I know a lot of women my age who don't exercise and can't seem to find a way in. Showing older women as fitness role models might inspire them, as well as show younger women that fitness is achievable for life". Hear, hear.

TOWNHALL — Last December, we saw 3.3 million background checks being conducted by the FBI on firearm purchases. That's a record number. In all, 23.1 million total checks were run through the National Instant Criminal Background Checks (NICS) system, making 2015 a record year for gun sales. Again, the reasons for the dramatic increase are straightforward. We have a pro-gun control Democratic president; we've seen a rash of horrific terrorist attacks; and said president has enacted a series of executive actions on gun control.
For January, it was yet another record year, as Stephen Gutowksi of the Free Beacon wrote earlier this month:
With 2,545,802 checks processed through the National Instant Background Check System, January 2016 beat the previous record, set in January 2013, by 50,326 checks. Though January's number represents a drop from the all-time single month record set in December 2015, it is also marks the ninth month in a row that has set a record. It is also the third month in a row with more than two million background checks.
The number of background checks conducted by the FBI is widely considered the most reliable estimate for gun sales in the country since all sales conducted through federally licensed gun dealers and some sales conducted by private parties are required by law to obtain a check.
However, the number is not a one-to-one representation of gun sales. Many private sales are not included in the system. Also, in some cases a single background check can apply to the sale of multiple guns. Some states use background checks for their gun carry permitting process, which does not involve the sale of a gun.

During his tenure first as a White House staffer and later as the coordinator of President Barack Obama's faith-outreach efforts in the 2012 election, Michael R. Wear encountered an unprecedented amount of ignorance and apathy toward the Christian religion.
In a recent interview with The Atlantic concerning his upcoming book, Reclaiming Hope: Lessons Learned in the Obama White House About the Future of Faith in America, Wear highlighted one especially telling experience.
He had reportedly drafted a faith-outreach fact sheet describing the president's views on poverty and titled it, Economic Fairness and the Least of These.
Advertisement - story continues below
By "Least of These," he meant a line from the Christian Bible wherein Jesus commands his disciples to care for "the least of these," i.e., the poor and marginalized.
Anyone with knowledge of the Bible would know that, but shockingly, Wear's peers in the White House did not.
TRENDING: Dem Reads Trump's Tweets Out Loud During Hearing, That's When He Hears from Jeff Sessions
"Another staffer repeatedly deleted 'the least of these,' commenting, 'Is this a typo? It doesn't make any sense to me. Who/what are 'these'?'" The Atlantic explained.
But this was just the tip of the iceberg. As time passed, Wear began to notice that the administration was "unnecessarily antagonistic toward religious conservatives," especially in regard to its fight over abortion funding and contraception requirements.
Advertisement - story continues below
Moreover, this attitude had expanded throughout the entire party.
Democrats have a religion problem https://t.co/fZUd6wwi0m pic.twitter.com/HSBPrcLbBQ
— The Atlantic (@TheAtlantic) December 30, 2016
"The Democratic Party used to welcome people who didn't support abortion into the party," he said. "We are now so far from that, it's insane."
He added that the Democrats made barely any effort to reach religious voters during the 2016 election.
Advertisement - story continues below
"Reaching out to evangelicals doesn't mean you have to become pro-life," he maintained. "It just means you have to not be so in love with how pro-choice you are, and so opposed to how pro-life we are."
This stubborn refusal to be more tolerant and open-minded, which some might call ironic, wound up costing the Democrats dearly, as 81 percent of Evangelicals and a majority of Catholics wound up rebuffing Democrat nominee Hillary Clinton in favor of Republican nominee Donald Trump.
"It's sad that this is a throwaway response, but it's the duty of statesmanship," Wear concluded, referring to the Democrats' refusal to extend an olive branch regarding contentious issues such as abortion. "It's the duty of living in a pluralistic society to make a case to all folks."

''Brothers talk about faith, service and community…each aspect nourishes me. My faith plays a very important role, and I sense that now more than any other time in my life.

The Influence of the Bible on America Trailer (2011)
"With Historian David Barton" 01 January 2011 Factual, Family 88 mins
The Bible's profound influence on America, widely understood by previous generations, is largely unrecognized today. For years, Americans saw the Bible as a practical guidebook for directing every aspect of daily life, and it therefore shaped American government, law, and education as well as our free enterprise system, our views of private property, our social services, and so much more. This inspiring video presentation documents the dramatic impact of the Bible on American life and culture over the past four centuries.

Nice question :)
The most important feature of the skeleton of turtles is a large part of your spine is soldered to the back of the shell. The skeleton makes breathing impossible by moving the rib cage is done primarily by the contraction of the abdominal muscles so modified that function similar to the mammalian diaphragm and pumping movements faringe.
The skull shows characteristics of a great primitivism. Though it lacks teeth, have a horny beak covering his jaw, like the beak.
Like all reptiles, turtles are ectothermic, which means that their metabolic activity depends on external or environmental temperature.
Turtles shed their skin, but unlike lizards and snakes, they do little by little. Also move or off the shields of the carapace, individually and apparently no particular order.
Organization of the shields of the carapace of a turtle.
The shell consists of two regions:
Back: the top or dorsal (also called "shell"), and consists of five rows of plates, the central or neural, middle position, flanked on either side by rows sacks, which in turn are flanked by marginal rows.
Plastron, is the bottom or ventral (also called "dungarees").
The turtle shells are made of thick bony plates inside, which is ossification of the dermis that are welded to the vertebrae and ribs are an exception species Trionychidae family, in which the plates are reduced or are cartilaginous ( rich in calcium). On these bony plates, is one of the following covers:
Skin especially consistent, almost coriaceous (leather-like).
Horny plates of keratin, comparable to the scales of other reptiles.
Bone shields covered with a thin horny layer slightly calcified (only in the case of tortoises that is, the family Testudinae).
Turtles have skin lining are soft-shelled turtles (family Trionychidae) and pig-nosed turtle (Carettochelys insculpata). Also, the leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) is coated skin but strengthened with numerous small bony plates.
The rest of the turtles have a shell made of bony plates coated keratinous shields. These plates do not match in number, position or size with shields, and this is what provides rigidity and strength to this type of shell.
Turtles can not remove the shell, as shown in some cartoons, because the vertebral column and ribs are welded to it. The structure, shape and color of the carapace of turtles vary from one species to another.

I was going to title this "Riding Sans Solo", but apparently, Sans Solo is a porn star.
A friend and I had been trying to schedule a trail ride together for a while, and as is the case when you get multiple humans and horses together with ever-changing weather, there were a couple of postponements. We thought perhaps the third time would be the charm.
While I was cleaning the paddock, I heard a vehicle pull up in front of my house, heard a door slam, and heard two chirps from the horn, meaning that the person was locking his vehicle and was planning on staying a while. I looked up the driveway and saw that it was a large truck parked at the entrance to the bridle trails. It wasn't blocking the gate, so all I had to worry about was making sure that the driver didn't fire up his engine and take off right while I was riding my horse past.
My friend texted me and said she'd be half an hour late due to an unexpected setback with another one of her horses. I felt relieved, because that would buy me some time for the truck to be moved. By now a second vehicle was pulling into my neighbor's driveway, so I knew these were house hunters meeting with a real estate agent. Most people don't spend more than 15 or 20 minutes viewing a home. However, when I saw who the house hunters were, I knew was in for a long wait. This was the same couple who spent half the day scouring the property last Friday, and also came by on the ATV to hike around at the back of the property for a long time the day before that. They sure like to take their time.
When I bought the home I'm in now, I toured it in five minutes and put an offer on it within a few days. I was in a hurry to move. These people seem to not be able to pull the trigger. They're obviously interested, because they keep coming back. I guess they want to make sure they are comfortable there and that they didn't miss anything on the first couple of walkthroughs.
I kept hoping they'd leave, but they were out touring the back yard again by the time I needed to saddle up. Fortunately, they didn't call me over to the fence to chat, because I didn't have the time. It embarrasses me when I promise to meet another horseback rider somewhere, and I'm running late, so the other horseback rider has to ride all the way to my house.
Their truck was still by the gate to the trails when I rode out. Rock saw it, balked, and stood like a statue staring at it. I let him look, and then made him get down to business and pass it. I first made sure that no one was in the driver's seat about to turn the key in the ignition. Rock was so obnoxious about burying his face in bushes all the way out. You'd think I'd been starving him. I rode around in the area of our meeting place, but didn't see my friend anywhere. I watched Rock to see if he detected anything. At one point he alerted in the direction she was coming from, but it turned out that the fire station was doing some training drills and someone was talking over a loud speaker.
I didn't see another soul on the trails. I think I rode for about half an hour before I finally spotted a horseback rider. Rock didn't see her. I didn't think it was my friend, but then she waved so I waited. Then I realized that for her to get to me, she would have to ride through a cholla field, so I turned Rock around and headed down the trail further away from the cholla, but he was so enamored with the other horse, that he kept trying to turn his head to look at him, and his tongue was hanging out the side of his mouth in the process. He looked like he was making silly faces at my friend's horse. It turned out that my friend was running behind schedule even more than predicted because she got stopped by her neighbor to chat -- the very thing that I was worried would happen to me and make me late.
We took turns leading, and rode side by side when the trail was wide enough, and both horses did pretty well. I found a balance between ignoring some of Rock's posturing behaviors, while correcting others. I wanted him to relax, and I knew that constantly correcting him wasn't going to help, so I limited my corrections to when he was thinking about hurting the other horse. Since my friend's horse is gaited and likes to lead, there were a few times when he tried to pass us. Rock, like most jerk-wad drivers on the road, suddenly sped up to try to stay ahead of her horse and he even sometimes went so far as to try to block him from passing with his body or tried to run him off the trail. When her horse got going too fast, she'd circle him away from us, and Rock would try to nip him on the rump. I never let him. You know you have a good connection with your horse when you know what he is thinking before he acts out the thought, and you can stop him.
Eventually, both horses settled down and we got into a good rhythm with Rock in front moving faster than his usual pace, and her horse in back moving slower than his usual pace. Each horse needed to improve in those directions. My friend said that her horse had its face buried in Rock's tail, and Rock was handling it well. At first, he had his ears flicked back, but I think that once he realized that the other horse wasn't going to bite him, he accepted being snowplowed from behind. Gabbrielle and Bombay used to cling to his rump too when they were feeling insecure. In this case, my friend's horse just wanted to go faster.
Rock was good about not running uphill again. I've been consistently praising and petting him for that, so I think he's got the message. He still needs a little work on rushing home, but having another horse on his mind did distract him from totally taking off on me.
It was a very successful ride. We were able to talk and get caught up with what's been going on without having to constantly worry about behavior problems, and we had the trails to ourselves, so we didn't have to worry about what other people and animals were going to do. We rode back to my house, and the house hunters were gone by then. We drank ice water and talked while her horse stood quietly tied to my hitching post. Both of our horses worked up a good sweat. We're going to try it again next week if the weather allows.
The dogs weren't able to keep their bodily functions under control for the two hours I was gone, so there was poop on the floor and pee in a diaper. Sometimes I've just got to go for a ride and tell myself that it is what it is, and I'll deal with the mess when I get home. There was the usual dog chaos when I opened the door with everyone running around on the porch, not able to decide whether to jump on our guest or run down to the dirt to relieve themselves. I do wish my dogs had better manners, but it's kind of hard to train them now with two of them being mostly deaf and me having a bad back that makes it difficult to bend down to touch them as a way of communication.
Speaking of dogs, it's time to go take them outside again...

Affirmative action or positive discrimination is the policy of favoring members of a disadvantaged group who are perceived to suffer from discrimination within a culture.
The nature of positive discrimination policies varies from region to region. Some countries, such as India, use a quota system, whereby a certain percentage of jobs or school vacancies must be set aside for members of a certain group. In some other regions, specific quotas do not exist; instead, members of minorities are given preference in selection processes.
The term "affirmative action" was first used in the United States in Executive Order 10925 and was signed by President John F. Kennedy on 6 March 1961. It was used to promote actions that achieve non-discrimination. In 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson issued Executive Order 11246 which required government employers to take "affirmative action" to "hire without regard to race, religion and national origin".
In 1967, sex was added to the anti-discrimination list.
Affirmative action is intended to promote the opportunities of defined minority groups within a society to give them equal access to that of the privileged majority population.
It is often instituted for government and educational settings to ensure that certain designated "minority groups" within a society are included "in all programs".
The stated justification for affirmative action by its proponents is that it helps to compensate for past discrimination, persecution or exploitation by the ruling class of a culture, and to address existing discrimination.
Several different studies investigated the effect of affirmative action on women. Kurtulus in her review of affirmative action and the occupational advancement of minorities and women during 1973-2003 showed that the effect of affirmative action on advancing black, Hispanic, and white women into management, professional, and technical occupations occurred primarily during the 1970s and...

A giant hamster ball is looking pretty good right now
I am so thankful for our next-door neighbor who saw everything and basically busted into our house to help. She's raised three kids and she adores R. She took control of the situation, told A to call the hospital, got R to show her his mouth, and calmed him down. It was really hard to tell, but it looked like two of his teeth were missing - one completely, one partially - and one was pushed backward. His gums and lips were swollen and purple. I ran and got ice and paper towels and held R on my lap. After A talked to the doctor, he ran to the playground to find R's teeth. I'm never squeamish, but for some reason, I started getting lightheaded and knew I was going to faint. I told my neighbor, and she flung her arm around me, led me to the couch, put a blanket on me, checked to see if I wanted any water, then went back to tending R. R got upset again because he was worried about me, my poor sweetheart. So he came out of the bathroom and sat with me on the couch. Within a few minutes, he was smiling and laughing, although he couldn't really talk.
When A got home, the first thing R said was, "Let's go back to the park!" So I think he's going to be okay.
God bless our amazing pediatric dentist who met us at his office within 10 minutes after we called. He was fantastic with R. The x-rays show that one of R's canines may be shoved up into his gums, he definitely lost one tooth completely (which A found at the playground), and one of his front teeth is bent strangely. We have to take R back once a week for the next couple of weeks and keep an eye on him for potential infection. He has to eat soft foods for awhile, but other than that, we just have to see how it goes.
I can't begin to express how badly I feel about being home napping while this happened. And then to almost faint on top of that. Ugh. But I am so thankful to God for R being pretty much okay. And for our neighbor who was a real-life angel. And for the dentist who was so kind and gentle with R (and us!).
R fell asleep within two minutes tonight. His last words to me were, "Mommy, when are my teeth going to feel better?" because he couldn't suck his thumb. We prayed together to ask God to heal his mouth quickly, and then I cried softly while I watched my baby sleep.
I know putting R inside a giant hamster ball to keep him safe from now on isn't the answer. But I can't help thinking about it.

OH honey. The poor Boo! Please give him hugs from us. As for you not being there - poo! Remember that Liam lost his front two teeth at just a wee bit older age (not much) than R is now. And he fell on the asphalt AT CHURCH. You can't be there 24/7. God made sure A was there with him. And made sure your amazing neighbor was there.
If Liam were awake, I'm sure he'd want to send some love to R. Solidarity and all that.
Love you...

Oh, Sweetie, I'm so sorry-that's really really crappy. And I don't mean to sound like "I've seen it all" but my "ex step " grandson Wes knocked out his front teeth when he was three.(Remember "We're going to Friendly's!!!!!) And Wes's teeth are totally fine now. Please don't feel guilty for taking a nap. The exact same thing could have happened with you standing right next to him(Calvin broke his arm falling 18 inches out of a chair onto the carpet while I was in the bathroom).What a freaking awesome dentist you have!!!!Mandy (Wes's mom)had to go to the ER, and the Dr. yelled at her, she was 17 at the time. The hamster ball seems like a good idea, I remember like 15 years ago these women, a grandma and great grandma were arrested in Bridgewater for locking their ADHD grandsons/greatgrandsons in dog crates-they were big fat loads but at the time I thought they were horrible, and the third time Mike got away from us I thought"Hmmm, I can see where they came up with that idea.....". Not really! But there is no absolute protection, just prayer and Dr. gratitude. I hope he's ok, and I love you guys.

Sweetheart, Rix is going to be fine. He is a boy and those things are going to happen. How are you? The thought "Oh God. why coudn't it have been me instead." must be running through your head. I know the thought. His secondary teeth will grow in straight and true.
Do you remember your two front teeth? A dentist told us that your needed braces to compensate or your teeth would be crooked. He wanted six thousand dollars to do it, up front and your teeth would be perfect in six months.
We didn't have the money at the time and started saving but after six months your teeth had straightened themselves. I am just thankful nothing more serious happened to Rix. Any wound to the face bleeds horribly and is frightening. I used to get them regularly, usually from my "little" brother's big fist. My Mother was horrified but my Father used to chuckle. He had the same problem when he was younger. His brother Paul was a giant. Hmmm, sounds familiar.
How is Alan doing? He must feel very alone. Carrying his bleeding son home must have been scary and lonely.
Does Rix know that a second set of teeth is on its way? That might be reassuring. I foresee a big "NO" when he brings home the permission slip to play football. I had to forge the note, luckily my Father and I had almost identical signatures. That came in very handy for absence notes. My high school sweetheart was horrified at that practice as she always followed all the rules and never did anything wrong. Hmmm, that sounds familiar.
There are going to be other incidents like this and no matter how careful you are they are going to happen. Do you remember Johanna's hockey helmut? Dr. Gormely was incensed with us for keeping her awake on the way to his office. He said that with any injury like that there was a danger of neck injury and keeping her awake could make things worse.
You just do the best you can and somehow things work out. The day is going to come when poor Alan will have to run down the street, holding the back of the seat of a two wheeled bicycle, telling himself that if anything happens the first place he should go is to a camping store to get a tent and a sleeping bag because he is going to need them. He could probably use a great big hug now.
My Father had one big rule "NO MOTORCYCLES!". Please remember that. Also remember that the first thing my brother and I did when we turned eighteen was to get a motorcycle. We both learned the hard way that my Father was a very wise man, my brother by hitting a german shepherd at sixty miles an hour and me by having a blowout at eighty.
Things are going to happen, you just do the best you can and your best is very, very good. There is no way you can control everything, just offer the best guidance you can. Rix loves and trusts you and will accept everything you say in that spirit. When he turns twelve the best thing to do is find yourself a village and get yourself the job as the idiot. I have done that and the Chamber of Commerce in this town has listed me as a local attraction. The local bank has a special window to accept my deposits of twigs and leaves and I have a nice cushion for sitting on the wall.
I am not trying to make light of your tragedy. Rix is going to be fine, I am just worried about you,
all of my love, always, daddy

My Dears,
Please don't feel bad that you were napping or that Rix got hurt while you were with him. I've seen your attentiveness when you take him to the playground. You set him loose to just play on his own. You play with him, always a step ahead or behind him. You are wonderful parents, truly engaged with your child. Don't feel bad, don't blame each other. Children do fall down, get hurt, cry, bleed. Thank God R was not seriously injured. God bless your neighbor! I'm sorry I couldn't have been with you, but I'm not sure I would have been much help. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. God bless. Love you

CTIA Wireless 2008: XM Radio for BlackBerry Video Tour
this app is awesome. Super esy to install and I have my curve hooked up to my office speakers and streaming music from my phone.
I am not officially the coolest guy in the company.
thanks crackberry.com
I was really excited about this. I am a sirius subscriber with 4 subs, and have wanted sat radio on my bb forever. I had sirius on my mogul and loved it when I travelled and was in hotel rooms and stuff.... sounded great on headphones and even over the speaker.
This app looks great! BUT, sounds bad out the speaker to me..... really bad. And it cuts out every time that I get an email.... when the alert plays, the music cuts out and won't come back on until I go into the XM app and restart the channel. Also, you can't control the volume of the music outside of the application... another bummer.
Good try, looks neat, but not worth the cash, at all. good start though.
Was completely psyched when I saw this, haven't been able to stream XM since I ditched my WM phone last year... but what a letdown. The audio quality is tinny crap, and having to restart the channel after every e-mail notification is a HUGE PITA! The limited channel selection wasn't a big issue since it covered most of my faves, but I won't be signing up once my 24-hour trial runs.
Beware the major suckage!! Stay on the sidelines for now and hope there's a better version in the works.
yeah... hopefully quality of sound AND channels will come in the 2.0 version..... whenever that may be!
I really like the interface its quick and great looking. The downside is definitely the crappy sound quality. It really is bad. I also couldn't find much I wanted to listen to so they would need more channels before I buy it. However, the comedy was great and really nice to have when I was tired of music. I'm hoping there will be an updated version, or a sirius app.
these black berry phones are really great, the one i amusing have a lot of special features that really takes my friends out of their minds and it can also be connected to a digital satellite tv that very special

One Zanesville family is getting into the Halloween spirit.
Angie McGee and her family take pride in decorating their home for Halloween at 1007 Clay Street in Zanesville. She says the tradition has been around since she was a little girl.
"My dad started it and I started helping him out when I was young, like his age, and we have been doing it ever since, and when my dad passed away I just kind of took over," said Angie McGee
She says the family looks forward to decorating every year, and that they are always searching for new and scary halloween items to add to their collection.
"Halloween is suppose to be all about scary, scary and fun and I think I went all scary," she said.
Angie's son, Damon Haser says he really likes the heads and all the bodies his mom designs. Mcgee says she hopes to one day add a hearse to her front yard display.

Just an update - it has been five days now since I came of the HCT bp meds and apart from one day when I ate a Subway sub my morning fasting readings are more in line with what I would expect. I've very hopeful that my readings will get back to what is normal for me.
Talldude, I owe you a cold one at the very least for starting this thread. If ever you are going to be in the Tampa area let me know.

text: The stripe_width is the stripe device length divided by the number of stripes. Unfortunately, commit eb850de ("dm stripe: support for non power of 2 chunksize") introduced a regression that resulted in the stripe_width being set to stripe device length divided by chunk_size * stripe_count. For example, a stripe device's table with: 0 33553920 striped 3 512 ... should result in a stripe_width of 11184640 (33553920 / 3), but due to the bug it was being getting set to 21845 (33553920 / (512 * 3)). The impact of this bug is that device topologies that previously worked fine with the stripe target are no longer considered valid. In particular, there is a higher risk of seeing this issue if one of the stripe devices has a 4K logical block size. Resulting in an error message like this: "device-mapper: table: 253:4: len=21845 not aligned to h/w logical block size 4096 of dm-1" The fix is to not use the 'width' variable as a temporary variable that is modified as a side-effect of the sector_div() as part of an earlier negative check before the stripe_width calculation (which also uses the 'width' variable).
