Thought I would post the solution I found to the non-operating installer for Myst IV (which I also found to be the case for Myst V).
In Tiger 10.4.11 with all Software Updates added to the hard drive, there are 9 releases of Java. On the Myst IV and Myst V DVDs, there are two invisible files named "mac.command" and "macinstall.jar" which are used by the "Myst IV Setup.app" that was dragged to the hard drive. I looked at the Console log after double-clicking on "Myst IV Setup" and saw "cannot find /wizard.xml" as the last line. So I tried to open "mac.command" and got the same thing. Using JAR Launcher to try and open "macinstall.jar" I got the error message that it was "incomplete or corrupt." Remember, this is on the Cyan Worlds DVD!
Eventually I did an Archive and Install using my original Apple Tiger Install Disc 1. This installed Mac OS X 10.4 on my hard disk (and the corresponding version of Java). Immediately after that, I installed both Myst IV and Myst V, and the installation went perfectly.
At this point I also installed the Myst IV 1.0 ->1.03 patch for Mac (also a ".jar" file) which worked perfectly and gave the "1.03" script at the lower left corner of the Myst IV splash screen. (I had previously tried updating with that patch back when I did have Myst IV 1.0 installed, but under Mac OS X 10.4.11 that update would not run either.)
After the successful installation of Myst IV and Myst V and the Myst IV patch, I used Software Update to bring the OS up to 10.4.11, and all the Java stuff up to Release 9. The games play perfectly; I just cannot install them at this level of OS X/Java. My guess is that Java's latest (or maybe somewhat earlier) release lost compatibility with the "InstallShield" program used by Cyan Worlds for Myst IV and V.
Java 6 was the current release version when that chmod a+x trick came about, maybe it has something to do with Java 6?
I'd like to know what the purpose of the macinstall.jar file is; if it only paints the installation interface for Myst IV it might not be needed at all, and could be bypassed. Maybe.
This is pure speculation, but I think Myst IV Setup runs "mac.command," which calls the Java Launcher in the Mac OS and tells it to open "macinstall.jar." If the current release of Java does not have the "/wizard.xml" file somewhere, then "macinstall.jar" is seen as corrupt by Java.
But I'm just guessing. An Apple programmer (or a Java programmer) could probably explain it.
Has anyone been able to install and run Myst IV on an intel-Mac running Snow Leopard? I've been trying for days now to get it to work but no luck.
I copied all the files from disk #1 to a work folder and used Terminal commands to run the installer and it appeared to work as it created an application file and other folders. I needed to run "chmod" on the application file but it still crashes when I try and run it.
I also copied a working installation folder from a powerPC Mac but this fails as well.
Looks like we're out of luck with Myst IV on intel-Macs
-- Geoff
Because I have no experience with Snow Leopard whatsoever, allow me to state the obvious and ask if you've installed Rosetta. Myst IV is a PPC only binary and has no native support for Intel Macs. Snow Leopard makes use of Intel binaries only, and did away with anything involving the PPC architecture. This made it faster and smaller, but you'll have to find Rosetta on Apple's web site and install it manually if you haven't already.
The only other thing you can do is install Windows with Bootcamp or Parallels/VMware Fusion and run Myst IV from there. If it's Windows 7, though, it's possible that you'll run into even more issues; I haven't heard about Myst IV being ran on 7 yet. :/
With all due respect to Myst IV, it's a miracle that it's worked for this long; it was released, what, 5 years ago? 6 years ago? Hardware, especially on the OS X side of things, was much different than it is now. Now the mid-high end computer you needed to run Myst IV then is a low-end computer now, and the PPC processor you needed to run Myst IV on Mac is non-existent now, in Apple's eyes that is. Monitors were all 4:3 aspect ratio LCDs or CRTs, topping out at 1024x768. Now 16:10 monitors at 1400x900 or 1680x1050 are seen regularly, something Myst IV can't run (properly) in fullscreen with.
In my opinion, Myst IV was catered too specifically to the hardware available when it came out, and didn't have much implementation for growth and expansion in the computer world. Now it's dying because it's too fidgety about the hardware it needs to run on. Again, that's just my opinion, and I believe a good, well designed program still runs on PCs it wasn't designed for 10 or 15 years after it was made.
Probably a pre-rendered game is not as flexible as far as resolution selection as a real-time game. I personally find it difficult to understand how a hundred thousand or so lines of code can possibly written with the future in mind. The reason that some old games can be played on some new computers (with new operating systems) seems to lie mainly in the flexibility of the OS and its drivers. I am "stuck" with a 2.7 GHz PPC Power Mac, which uses Motolola/IBM CPUs. They have a different instruction set than the current Intel chips. There is absolutely no way a program written to run on an Intel CPU can run on a PPC CPU, unless it is written in "universal binary." There is no way a program written for the "Classic" Mac OS (Mac OS <10.x) will run under Mac OS 10.x, and there was no way for the programmers to know that Mac OS X was in the works when they wrote Myst, Riven, or Myst III (Exile). We were very lucky that Exile could be patched to run under OS X!In my opinion, Myst IV was catered too specifically to the hardware available when it came out, and didn't have much implementation for growth and expansion in the computer world.
Until a modern Nostradamus is writing code, it is just not going to happen that you will be able to play a game written for Windows 7 under "Picture Windows 2015" unless Microsoft writes compatibility software.
Agreed, but that is using another OS (emulation) or re-writing the program (Carbon). Apparently the "RivenX" project is attempting a rewrite of Riven... but you notice it's taking quite a bit of time. What I was writing was that there was no way the programmers of Riven could have written it in 1993-1997 so that it would run under Mac OS X.

Papyrus, the prevention of young suicide charity, has launched a campaign to change the high standard of proof coroners' courts must use when reaching a conclusion of suicide. The charity warns that the law is hiding a growing national crisis and perpetuates the stigma around suicide.
Despite decriminalisation in 1961, coroners still use the criminal standard of proof, 'beyond reasonable doubt', to determine a death as suicide. This must prove it was committed by the victim and was intentional, rather than the standard used for civil cases, which are determined 'on the balance of probabilities'.
Recent figures show there were 6,188 deaths recorded as suicides in the UK in 2015, according to the Office for National Statistics. This is up from 6,122 the previous year, continuing a pattern of increasing incidents since 2007. But it could be much higher.
Analysis by Professor Colin Pritchard at Bournemouth University suggested that if coroners used the civil standard of proof, recorded suicides could increase by as much as 30 – 50 per cent.
Founder of Papyrus, Stephen Habgood, is focusing the campaign on pressuring legislators and accuses the government of inaction, 'Even with the support of its own Chief Coroner, the Government has continued to accept the use of the criminal standard of proof in reaching suicide conclusions,' he said. 'In fact, the Ministry of Justice has steadfastly refused to change the way coroners reach a suicide conclusion.
'This leads those of us campaigning on the issue to conclude that they want to deliberately suppress the figures around the number of people who take their own life each year.'
The House of Commons Health Committee published a report this March recommending a change in the law. It said: 'The current standard of proof causes misclassification of deaths by suicide, leading to an underestimation of the numbers of individuals who have taken their lives by suicide.'
Professor Louis Appleby told the committee 'Its equivalence with criminal proof reflects the history of suicide.
'There is a principle here, which is that the standard of proof is a reflection of a system that is full of prejudice and stigma, which we ought to dismantle.'
Words: Sid Hayns-Worthington

Inspired by Ayn Rand's characters in Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead, penetrating profiles of both the innovators who move our world forward and those who seek to destroy the achievement of others...
John Galt, the fictional character from Ayn Rand's best-selling novel Atlas Shrugged has come to embody the individualist capitalist who acts in his own enlightened self interest, and in doing so lifts the world around him. Some of today's most successful CEOs, journalists, sports figures, actors, and thinkers have led their lives according to Galt's (i.e., Rand's) philosophy.
Now, in I Am John Galt, these inspiring stories are gathered with the keen insight and analysis of well-known market commentator Donald Luskin and business writer Andrew Greta. Filled with exclusive interviews, profiles, and analyses of leading financial, business, and artistic stars who have based their lives, and careers, on the philosophy of the perennially popular Ayn Rand, this audiobook both inspires and enlightens. On the other side are Rand's arch villains - the power-seekers, parasites, and lunatics who would destroy that which the creators and builders make. Who are today's anti-heroes, fighting the creativity of the innovators?
Contains insightful interviews, profiles, and analyses of the individuals who have lived by a Randian code to achieve greatness for themselves and others
Offers a probing analysis of those who seek to destroy or undo the achievements of others - from academics, pundits, and government bureaucrats to fraudsters who have wreaked havoc on our world
Engaging and entertaining, I Am John Galt examines how the inspiration that is Galt thrives more than 50 years after publication of Atlas Shrugged. It will spark the interest of Ayn Rand fans everywhere, as well as those seeking a way to succeed in today's turbulent and confusing times.

Hello! Could you pls help me with an advice?
Hello everybody!
I worked with db a few years ago in FoxPro, but now I'm "rusty". I'm looking for a Junior DB job, but I don't know where to start.
Could you pls tell me what should I start learning first? I did some work in Access but I don't think I could get a job with that.
Thank you and I appreciate your help very much!

I thought they wern't allowed to use the word "Junior" in a job title anymore; maybe that's just here in sunny old England.
Sadly FoxPro is reaching the end of it's life; they recently announced that they would not be producing another version (i.e. v10 would never make it off the starting blocks). Instead, they are looking into porting it over to the .NET framework. VFP is a great language and tool system, but the fact is it has become dated and everyone is hopping on the .NET gravy train!
If you want to be a DBA, then you have a tonne of choices of what platform to go with. If you want my opinion; employers like to see the word Microsoft on peoples qualifications, because, after all, a heck of a lot of people use their products!
But, you've developed in VFP and Access; which suggests more than just database work; perhaps some front-end stuff as well?
Well in that case, the .NET platform is a good place to aim for; it has a great ability to work with data and once again, is very desirable on a CV.
You have a lot to learn, but take it slow. Do not skip straight to .NET if you chose that path; work on some "legacy" platforms, such as classic ASP, get the foundations layed properly before becoming a GUI school-kid

Thank you for your reply. And yes, I did mostly front-end work. I have a book "Beginning ASP.NET databases using C# ", I'll look for some classic ASP books too. I'm reading now SQL databases.

Why learn old stuff
Why learn old stuff? I dont understand the logic of that.
Theres a steep enough learning curve just using the current stuff and by the time you've learned that it will have changed again.
The fundamentals are the same. Learn those. Then just learn what ever is the current language.
C# and .net stuff wont go away for a long time. I'd learn that, but others may disagree.

A Testimonial From Aimee
Here is my testimonial. I could have gone on and on because I have so much gratitude and love for Into Action but I tried to keep it brief. Besides I do not believe there are enough words to express what you and the staff at Into Action has done for me and my family. Hope this helps!
Love, Aimee
Three years ago I experienced a devastating relapse. I had lost my job, my nursing license and had my children removed from my custody. I was very physically ill and sleeping in my car. I reached out for help and ended up at Into Action Treatment which was a brand new facility at the time. I was their 10th client. Although I was grateful to be somewhere safe, I had no hope they could help me since I'd already been through a dozen or more treatment facilities in the past in addition to AA, therapy and psychiatric help. Nothing had seemed to work for me up until this point and I felt helpless and hopeless.
Into Action Treatment introduced me to the Big Book Step Study method of AA which I was unfamiliar with but curious. It proved to be the solution that would forever change my life. They also provided me with physical, emotional and spiritual support. Now three years later, I have reunited with my children, I have had my nursing license restored and I am gainfully employed in my field. I have mended damaged relationships with my family and was able to be a caregiver and support to my alcoholic father who recently passed away from this illness. I would never have been able to walk through something like that sober in the past.
I believe I can get through anything today without a drink or a drug and I credit Into Action Treatment for providing me with the foundation that has proven to be a real and lasting solution. They will always have a special place in my heart and I highly recommend their services to anyone who is struggling!

Weekend recap
How was everyone's weekend?
Spill even if you only sat around with the family and watched tv, that is great too :).
Re: Weekend recap
great thanks.
worked Saturday and just relaxed on Sunday. how was yours?
Re: Weekend recap
I layed around all weekend. I have all day m/s so I just try to get by :(. The week working takes a lot out of me :).
Re: Weekend recap
After I got Logan to bed I watched Marly and Me(and cried )and then went to bed.
Saturday me and Logan stayed home and watched tv and played and napped.Then Saturday night my mom came over and watched him so me and my friend could go eat supper(went to Red Lobster).
Sunday,I had a headache all day and we got to talk to DH on skype and we just chilled and after Logan went to bed we(me and my mom) watched My Sisters Keeper and I cried again.,......
pretty exciting huh?lol
Re: Weekend recap
I have heard those are crying movies :(. I am trying to not watch to sad of movies right now. I heard they are good though. How wonderful you got to talk to DH. Do you get to talk to him often?
Re: Weekend recap
I get to talk to him on skype/webcam on the weekends(if he's not on a mission).
He was supposed to be on one today but they didn't go due to the sandstorm and he called me at work and we talke a few minutes.
Re: Weekend recap
That is wonderful. I remember when I first joined the service we didn't have any of that stuff. The only email we had went through a central system that anyone who had access to check could read and the guys who checked it were supposed to skim it for sensitive material. GAH it was the worst. It is so much better now.

3 Review Writing Tips
16 comments:
Awesome tips!ReplyDelete
If I love a book enough to give it 5 stars, there is no stopping to take notes for the review. I just read it and then write down my thoughts afterwards.
If I am unsure about what I think of the book after reading it, I give it a couple days to really put my thoughts together on the book and why I did or didn't like it. I don't want to rush and right down the wrong thing.
Konstanz Silverbow
Good thoughts, Konstanz.Delete
Some of my 5-star reviews are the most bare-boned because all I really want to do is say I loved the book.
My Word doc also comes in handy for letting a review have time to formulate. I often update and tweak these before I post.
Thanks for sharing!
Oh I understand that! Writing 5 star reviews are some of the hardest ones of all! :D When you love a book, you just gotta make sure everyone knows about it right? LOLDelete
I do all three of these things! Well, I don't have a notebook, I have FLASHNOTE open on my laptop where I type down notes and begin my review. I make sure to finish writing the review before I pick up my next book so I don't get behind. :)ReplyDelete
Also in FLASHNOTE, I have a few generic questions for me to think about when writing my review to make sure I don't miss anything.Replies
Electronic notes are a great way to keep organized for the tech savvy! ;) Thanks, Angie.Delete
Thanks for this helpful tip!ReplyDelete
This post is quite timely for me, as I find it hard to write reviews lately.
I am ashamed to admit it but there are, at least, 5 books I already read that are still pending to be reviewed. But I'm doing best to decrease them bit by bit and once I finish them, I will apply your tips immediately. :)Replies
Glad that helps, Erleen.Delete
If you're more of a reader than a reviewer (me!) sometimes quickie reviews are the way to go. I'll jump onto Amazon and tap out a few sentences about how much I enjoyed the book. Sometimes part of the review is even me saying that I'm just jumping in quick-like because I want to share my book love.
No, it's not the most articulate and clever review, but at least I took the time and I know authors appreciate each and every ranking.
One of my goals for 2013 is to write a review for very book right *after* I finish reading it! I have the tendency of finishing a book then going off to do something else and then I dont write my review for a few days (sometimes weeks!) It's really bad, I've gotten to the point where I'm like 10 reviews behind! I've caught up, though!ReplyDelete
So far this year I have only read 2 books...the 1st book I am almost done with my review (I finished that one about a week ago...bad, I know) and the 2nd one I finished last night so I'm hoping to write that one tonight.
Anyway, thanks for the tips...they're very helpful!Replies
I'm impressed you could go back and write 10 reviews. Sounds like homework to me!Delete
I don't actually enjoy review writing...at all! But I started doing it initially as a pay it forward kind of thing as a shopper who appreciated people who took the time to help me make buying decisions and now, especially, when I appreciate first-hand the meaning of each and every review!
These are all great tips. Of course, I do none of them! ;) I highlight quite a bit if reading on the Kindle, as a way of taking notes. It's not always enough though. Starting the review before I am done with the book would be a great help though.ReplyDeleteReplies
I'm glad you mentioned highlighting, Ali. I highlight all the time on my Kindle! That's an extremely helpful reference.Delete
What a great idea, on the note books. Lately I've been feeling like I should jot down thoughts of things I would like to talk about as reviewing does feel like a chore sometimes, haha. What a fantastic post, all wonderful tips Nikki! ^_^ReplyDelete
Love your ideas Nikki! I used to always write my reviews after reading. I think some of my reviews turned out better because of it, because I was able to use that initial emotion to write my review. But I also think that some reviews suffered from this because I had to allow the story to really stew before I could write a good review!ReplyDelete
I do use the highlighting on my kindle because I like to pick my favorite character moment, and I have found that it really helps to highlight as I go! I also try to keep some notes as I read, but mostly I fail at this!! I really need to try these things!!
Thanks!!! :)
Great tips, Nikki! I use them in 2013.ReplyDelete
I have this bookmarked to remind me! Thank you so much Nikki! :) For some reason, I get too lazy or sleepy to write a review after I'm done with a book. I dunno what has gotten into me lately. Need to get back on the productive writing wagon!ReplyDelete

Freight transport is the physical process of Commodity and merchandise goods and cargo. The term shipping originally referred to transport by sea, but is extended in American English to refer to transport by land or air (International English: "carriage") as well. "Logistics", a term borrowed from the military environment, is also fashionably used in the same sense.
Shipment of cargo by trucks, directly from the shipper's place to the destination, is known as a door to door shipment and more formally as multimodal transport. Trucks and trains make deliveries to sea and airports where cargo is moved in bulk.
Common trading terms used in shipping goods internationally include:

Club De Fromage is brought to you by one of the most respected men in the history of clubs: The Legendary Fat Tony. He is a man of vision who from an early age has striven to get the people what they want: cheap beer, silly costumes and music they can sing along to whilst eating a kebab. Fat Tony counts among his close friends such luminaries of the showbiz world as Peter Stringfellow, Tony Blackburn and Fern Britton and has been romantically linked to such screen sirens as Sue Pollard, Hattie Jaques and Molly Sugden.
Tony was off the radar for a while, due to doing three years at Her Majesty's Pleasure in Holloway prison. This miscarriage of justice occurred when Tony's last club 'The Bridlington Palais' burnt down in mysterious circumstances. Tony bounced back and purchased an old disused meat refrigeration plant in the heart of one of Islington High Street's most exclusive shopping arcades. He proceeded to turn it into a palace of entertainment, the likes of which have not seen since the much lamented 'Islington Hippodrome' was closed when the bogs leaked into the beer cellar.
He is aided and abetted in his plans by his son Slow Alfie. Together they plan to bring back the glory days of night clubs, when the customer was always wrong and DJs worked part-time as milkmen. Join them every Saturday as they embark on their God-given mission to get you all dancing round your handbags and trying to forget who you copped off with last night.

White widow Samantha Lewthwaite: Terrorist with Northern Ireland links 'spotted at Duncan Bannatyne's hotel'
A woman resembling one of the world's most wanted terrorists, Samantha Lewthwaite, has been spotted checking into a hotel owned by Duncan Bannatyne, according to reports.
Durham Police are said to be probing the sighting of a guest resembling the infamous terror queen, who was once married to July 7 bomber Germaine Lindsay, arriving at the four-star Bannatyne Hotel in Darlington, County Durham.
The woman's likeness to the bomb-making mother-of-four, who was dubbed the "White Widow", aroused suspicion as she checked in at the hotel, part of the Dragons' Den star's leisure group, on Boxing Day.
A hotel spokeswoman said "police are looking into it [the sighting]", but declined to comment further.
Lewthwaite, 32, who spent part of her childhood in Banbridge, is currently on a list of high profile targets being hunted by Interpol after she was linked to a series of bloody attacks in Africa.
Her mother Christine is originally from Banbridge and married British soldier Andy Lewthwaite while he was serving in Northern Ireland in the 1970s.
She is thought to have fled Britain for Africa before joining militant group al-Shabaab following the 2005 attacks in London.
Dubbed the world's most wanted woman, she is said to been involved in a series of atrocities including the 2013 attack on the Westgate Mall in Nairobi and the Garissa University College massacre in April last year. Over 200 were killed in the attacks.
Originally from Northern Ireland, Lewthwaite has used the alias Natalie Webb and took the Muslim name Sherafiyah Lewthwaite when she converted to Islam as a teen.
She is the subject of a Red Notice by Interpol, who issued the international arrest warrant at the request of Kenyan authorities.

Customers Watch In Horror As Man's Card Is Declined, Then Cashier Reaches Across The Counter
inspire by Katie Mooney 4/3/2017
If ever you've forgotten your wallet with a conveyor belt full of groceries, you know how humiliating this "oops moment" feels. Or, taking it one step further - being told in front of the crowded line of people waiting behind you that your card has been declined. Ugh.
One man recently endured this very mortifying situation, and he certainly didn't expect what happened next...
Tim McKellar was standing in line at Dollar General when he witnessed an unbelievable moment, one he'd certainly never forget.
As Tim waited to pay for his items, the cashier scanned the order of an elderly gentleman in front of him - a man proudly wearing his veteran cap. However, when the man attempted to scan his card for payment, he couldn't remember his pin. Sadly, his card was declined.
Tim shared in his Facebook post,
"He tried a couple different times when another lady offered to help him again with no luck."
That's when the cashier decided to step in, and change the fate of this veteran's day...
Jacob Wittman was working the Dollar General Store register that day, and decided he couldn't watch this gentleman swipe unsuccessfully one more time - so, he pulled out his own wallet.
Tim explained,
"That's when the cashier Jacob Wittman pulled his wallet out and told the lady (who had been helping) to scan his card."
The veteran, seeming a bit confused as to what just transpired, asked the cashier if he just paid for his grocery items.
Jacob responded,
"Yes sir I did. And, you don't owe me a dime."
Tim, so moved by the human connection that had just taken place before him - felt the strong need to record it, post it, and share it with the world.
He ended his post with,
"Now this kid obviously makes minimum wage or real close to it and probably didn't have the extra money to spare. I thanked him for what he had done, asked for his name and took his picture. Let's give this Good Samaritan the acknowledgement that he deserves."
And the "acknowledgement that Jacob deserves" was certainly shown - as the post has received over 3,000 positive reactions and has been shared over 1,400 times.
Inspired readers have responded with comments such as,
"Such an awesome act of kindness. Sending you a big hug and many blessings from miles and miles away."
"Jacob, you are a good-hearted young man. Thank you for helping the elderly and veterans. God bless you!"
"God bless you young man. So many people could learn from you, what it is to show kindness. You are an inspiration to us all. Thank you."
It's simple acts of kindness such as this, of one human being reaching out to another in need, which are making a difference in our world. Let us all learn from Jacob's loving gesture, and seek out people in our own lives who would benefit from a little support. Because after all, at some point in our lives we'll all take a turn being "that person" who needs it.
Share this heartwarming story with your friends and family, and inspire love!

"Go on. Now" our skipper commands, "And good luck." As directed, we ease ourselves into the water without making a splash because even our tiny frantic arms might disturb the giants peace. For the next few minutes there's only blue, not turquoise but a thick royal colour, the kind where you have no idea how deep the water is. I'm trying to stare through it, pierce it with my eyes, mostly out of excitement but there's a hint of fear too. For thirty minutes we'd been putting alongside two of Tonga's whales, a female humpback and her calf, waiting for the time when they showed a calmness that meant we could join them.
"I can't believe we can travel Tonga on a budget"
Sticking to our guide I make tentative strokes forward until I freeze in my place, there's something up ahead, a shimmer of white in this blanket of blue. The whale that approaches is three times my size but I remind myself that this is the baby one. It's almost pure white, has a curled dorsal fin and definitely needs more time to perfect its swimming technique. My heart fills with awe, with love for this wobbly giant, trying to manoeuvre itself from the surface.
Only as he (or she) dips below do we notice the dark shadow and one enormous watchful eye following his every move. The mother rests four metres below the surface, barely moving apart from that bowling ball sized pupil making sure her baby is coming to no harm. He approaches her nose and nudges it with his own before coming to rest beneath her ample bosom. Mother and child pause as if in a trance and we are splayed on the surface equally still and silent, well aware that this is a once in a lifetime moment.
The mother can hold her breath for 20minutes but the babies lungs are far less adequate, after a few short minutes he moves restlessly beneath her belly. Once out from her enormous shadow his body is so buoyant it floats to the surface without a single kick. His pectoral fins barely keeps him steady as he frolics between the water and air before making a significant effort to reach his mothers safety once again. This time, instead of nudging her he recedes to her rear and we look upon a 1 ton baby suckling milk from a 40 ton parent the size of school bus, A SCHOOL BUS!!! Three minutes later he stops feeding to balloon back up to the surface and seems to notice us for the first time, he is more curious than scared and beelines towards us.
Thinking we have some control over the situation we try to back-peddle with our hands, which is both ridiculous and ineffective and the whale is almost touching us before his mother intervenes. Showing who's boss she tilts her head to one side and the baby immediately retreats and perhaps has been chastised for its carelessness, as he keeps his distance from now on. Our guide guesses that this humpback is about 4 weeks old and chances are that this is its first encounter with humans, it's good to see that mum is setting the guidelines.
It's amazing how time flies in the presence of a whale, we have spent one and a half hours boating and swimming beside these two and the time has come to leave them be. A silence descends upon the boat, its filled with pure contentment, amazement and disbelief. Prue and I look at one another and know we've just shared something truly special, a moment never to be forgotten.
The second time we take a dip we are in the company of three of Tonga's whales, the baby is much older than the last and its mother is accompanied by a male escort, possibly hoping to get lucky on the migration south. The two enormous bodies are sitting at the surface allowing the baby, with its body still very buoyant, to have a break. Seemingly impatient, the escort plunges below the female and rests head-down in the water flicking his tale. From the surface all we can see is a glimmer of white and blue, white and blue. I have no clue what he is trying to say but it fails to impress the mother who remains in a trance while the baby bounces around on the surface.
We pass nearly an hour poised like this, stunned that we have been granted the permission to watch these animals, to scrutinise the wrinkles around their eyes and their knobbly 5m fins. I'm watching the sun shimmering along their broad backs when they decide our time is up, with a huge kick of their tails they return to the shadows and we don't try to follow, there's no point. All we can do is grin, cry and say "Thank you."
This was some perfect escapism. Thank-you so much!

Report: Altidore (hamstring) had Grade 2 tear, return was unlikely
United States forward Jozy Altidore says he suffered a Grade 2 hamstring tear in the team's Group G opening win over Ghana.
Altidore, who added that he wouldn't have been able to return to action until later in the tournament had the U.S. advanced, was a guest Thursday on ESPN's "Mike and Mike" radio show Thursday morning.
"It was a terrible moment for me because I've done it before in my other leg in 2011. That was a really bad one and left me out a month. I knew with this one it was similar and I was going to be out a while in terms of the tournament," Altidore said.
Because of the injury, Altidore was removed from the Ghana game and never saw any additional action. In the days before the United States' Round of 16 loss to Belgium, coach Jurgen Klinsmann said Altidore would be ready and available for the knockout round, but the forward never entered the 2-1 loss.
"I had such high expectations for my team and for myself. I was really excited about the opportunity of playing against some of the world's best players and making my mark but, at the same time, everything happens for a reason and I am committed to getting better and being a player on this team that can take us to the next level," Altidore told ESPN.

Chasing Ice Review
There's no mistaking the leanings of director Jeff Orlowski's cast here who set out to prove, in the most tangible way they can, the existence of, and the damaging effect that Global Warming is having on our planet. Focussing on the work of photographer and former scientist James Balog the film we see his creation of the Extreme Ice Survey and its intention to photograph decaying glaciers around the world.
Initially a sceptic of global warming Balog had his views altered dramatically when he saw first hand the effect it was having across the globe. On photographic shoots and work with National Geographic he realised the severity of the situation and became determined to share this with as many people as he could. An article for National Geographic saw him photograph the changing landscape of the Antarctic and the shocking rate of calving (the term for glaciers breaking off into the Ocean) quickly becoming the magazine's most read feature and paving the way for this feature length documentary in an attempt to capture a wider audience.
Knowing the answer lay in the changing ice, Balog went about documenting the change in these great colossal structures in a way that could be simply acknowledged and understood en masse. The film introduces the rest of his ensemble, rounding up the crew as if in an Oceans film or, more suitably, Philippe Petit's bunch of daring sidekicks in Man on Wire. Between the engineers, photographers, scientists and science geeks they manage to create cameras that would survive such harsh conditions and go about setting them up in spots in Alaska, Montana, Iceland and Greenland where we meet the closest a glacier will get to celebrity status having been the one to send out the iceberg that sank the Titanic.
Capturing these images is no mean feat (one effort sees Balog and a young assistant literally hanging over a bottomless pit) and the excursions begin to take their toll on the intrepid photographer, in particular his already dodgy knee. This is an opportunity to show the action man nature of Balog as he heroically soldiers on over the icy mountains with nothing but a pair of sticks to hold up his amputated stump of a leg - a grand exaggeration but there's an element of Chasing Ice that plays up to one mans relentless pursuit of change at all costs. We see him break down in tears at one point and there are fleeting moments spent with his family as even they understand the noble quest of our protagonist.
A large amount of the film's success rides on the images and the impact they have. It's packed with powerful, provoking visuals of these dying giants and interspersed with Balog's photography highlighting the magical, other worldly qualities of the architectural marvels and white canvases. The film's payoffs are the shots they were able to capture from the stationed cameras and when at the end they are shown the results are staggering. We see the largest ever glacier calve recorded on camera, the size of Manhattan and 3 times the height of the Empire State Building and time-lapse footage of the glaciers receding at a rate far greater than at any point in history. These images are, says Balog, key to realising the dangers of climate change. Despite the relatively small temperature change, the altered atmosphere and change this has on the air itself is far more significant with these glaciers acting as a canary in a coalmine alerting us to significant danger.
Much like Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth, Chasing Ice may be met with acclaim among those who believe whole-heartedly in the perils of the topic but equally with a general sigh of ambivalence by an unwilling majority. The recent hype around the Kony 2012 project showed that passion projects can be seen in large numbers and while those featured here are unlikely to come under the levels of scrutiny Invisible Children did, they may miss out too on the amount of coverage it they received.
We are not patronised or offered a quick fix scheme as Balog realises it will not come from a film but hopes this offers enough definitive evidence to enough people to demand some kind of reaction as he takes his finding higher up the government hierarchy. Orlowski has certainly helped his cause whose cinematic portraits fittingly elevate Chasing Ice into more than just science lectures for the screen.

The Queen Of Versailles DVD Review
★★★★☆The American dream is one founded on improvement, the distinguishing feature key to the US is the emphasis on financial improvement over self. These two parallels take centre stage in Queen of Versailles, a film by Lauren Greenfield who originally set out to tell the story of the building of the largest house in America but ended up telling one about the pitfalls of being a billionaire in the time of a market crash.
Versailles was a pet project of timeshare tycoon David Seigel and his wife Jackie whose inspiration from Louis XIV's palatial pad is mixed with the Vegas parody hotel French House. Featuring every Cribs gimmick you can imagine and a staircase of Award Ceremony stature, the house is ridiculous, at least it would have been. The crash leaves the building unfinished and unused.
It's purely by chance that Greenfield's cameras happened to be filming at that specific time but it's a chance that turned this potential puff piece about the follies of the rich into something far larger – a story on a grand and very contemporary note narrowed down and focussed into one singular family.
We are introduced to the family in their current home, an already vast Orlando mansion full of staged portraits and garish bling and awash with tiny dogs, both present ones running around and deceased ones like Chanel, displayed and exhibited in glass cases. Talking heads and news footage gives us an impression of the Seigels, David the man with the Vegas tower to outshine Donald Trump's made his millions through timeshare schemes "The best thing in the world is being rich, the next best thing is feeling rich". This motto is fed further down the employment food chain as employees are encouraged to feel akin to Doctors and Surgeons saving lives on a daily basis. It's management speak on a super-sized US scale and it's one that's got David Siegel far.
We learn early on about his "possibly illegal" influence on George .W. Bush's successful 2004 Presidential campaign which in hindsight he reflects regretfully possibly avoiding a war. We learn too of his meetings and dealings with the great and the not-so-good across America and the inevitable fondness for beauty pageants; he's a key donator to the Miss America Foundation and it is here that he met current wife Jackie. The suburban girl turned former Miss America is mother to seven of David's children, the large number being a result of her realisation that she can afford to, and guardian to an eighth from adoption. She's right about the financial benefits; the house is flooded with helpers mainly migrants who do everything around the house and some who live in out-houses in the garden. It is this sheltered existence that comes crashing when the banks start calling for a few hundred million dollars.
By now, tales of recession loss are well known but the grandness of the scale in Greenfield's film is what takes Queen of Versailles into incredulous levels. In amongst the mass redundancies, crisis meetings and anger towards the banks for selling "cheap money" we see the coping methods of this one family, removed as their lives may be. The supporting cast of cleaners, cooks and nannies are let go and their home swiftly feels the impact as that army of small dogs start to make their protest known in the only way they can.
The unfamiliarity of a scaled-down lifestyle often brings the films funnier moments, the family's first commercial flight and Jackie asking the rental car assistant for the name of the driver so accustom is she to a chauffeur. This naivety lends itself to laughs but the scaling down is, of course, relative and the realities of thriftiness don't always come easily to Jackie as testified by the size of a Christmas shopping trip and a brand new bike being added to a garage full with brand new bikes.
Between shopping trips and parties Greenfield finds a family whose concerns and relationships aren't a million miles away from our own. Jackie is generously shown in a caring light and while the limelight isn't something she'd shy away from there are moments of generosity that suggest the crash may have brought out more sympathetic traits. She lends an old friend a sizeable amount to keep her house and invites the cameras in to her charity warehouse where much of the stock is her own expensive home-ware (the extortionate original price being shouted out to bargain hunters from the owner). The financial strain starts to bring out positive qualities in the Siegel's and while the pressures of keeping afloat a company of his size has sapped a deflated David, there are signs that even he may be beginning to realise his part to play, "We've got to live within our means…nobody is without guilt."
The Versailles project of the title was never lived in by the Siegel's. They were forced to reluctantly put it on the market under the gaze of news channels for $100m or an unfinished shell at $75m. The figures are staggering and difficult to comprehend but the achievement by Greenfield is to centre on the human aspect we can relate to and leave the Versailles house as a white elephant, an empty monument for this inverted rags to riches tale.

If we weren't sure before we are now. Fulham are done.
The folly of appointing a skills coach in a team that can't defend becomes more and more apparent. As Tony Pulis is showing at Palace, getting a team organised doesn't take that long. But here Fulham were getting torn apart, again, and clearly it isn't happening. Meulensteen may have improved things slightly but in many areas he appears to be just hoping for the best, and it isn't working.
Sascha Riether's area was the source of much of the damage, and if we forgive him for being an attacking fullback we can't forgive a system that doesn't fill in for him. Whatever happened to covering? Is this team above that kind of work? Or does it simply not have the legs?
The rot goes on. The online scapegoats have all gone (to Milan, Valencia, Monaco and PSV, from the bottom of the table premier league club – hmmmm!!! – maybe, just maybe, the wrong players have left) but stil we lose badly. It doesn't really matter who plays, they all fall down in the usual fashion.
No centre-back pairing can survive not having full-backs or having an iffy midfield in front of it, so for Senderos and Amorebieta read Burn and Hangeland or Hughes and Senderos or whatever other combination you want (welcome, John Heitinga!). Doesn't make any difference. The constants in this team are Riether, Parker and Sidwell, which either makes them the only three good players we have or the only constants in a historically awful Fulham team, and draw your own conclusions from that.
On the plus side, new man William Kvist (Zonal Marking tweeted after the game that he had expected Kvist to replace Sidwell or Parker, not to join them) played well and was demonstrably organising those around him, trying to cajole Parker and Sidwell into the right areas even if it took a number of arms-out shouts to get them to pay attention. Lewis Holtby took a while to get into the game but soon impressed with his energy, invention and ability. If the other new signings can add similar vim then who knows? But it's unlikely, isn't it?
Two young lads from United are valuable in giving the team half a shot at getting younger. A record signing from the Greek league sounds like another disaster waiting to happen, but we must reserve judgement and content ourselves that even if he is awful, he will be better than Darren Bent (who missed the game's pivotal chances, and if Bent isn't putting away chances – he clearly isn't – he has no business being on the pitch).
Onwards and downwards.

What do you do when you are caught in the hectic happenings of the week?
The never-ending household grind, grocery shopping, dropping and picking children from school, driving daughter from one corner of the city to other for sports & music classes in evening, dropping son for his evening extra classes, organizing for shoots and then squeezing time in between to manage this blog.
Well, in reality there's not much I can do about it but to vent my feelings and anger in every other blogpost…or..errr…just hope for one another Sunday to put a break on my fast-paced lifestyle 🙂
But then, I am also enjoying the various phases and changes that life brings every single day as time marches on.

I was delighted to find a new organic store opened close to my house loaded with many unusual food products I would love to cook with. I bought a few packets of red Sorghum (jowar) and sweet smelling pure cane sugar or as they call it sucanat (sugar cane natural).
The red Sorghum has harder skin and more nutty taste than the white grain and takes a little longer to cook.

It has been 7 years already and the kind of euphoria that Lite Bite is creating, year after year is beyond words.
Lately I have been so wrapped up in constant outdoor photo-shoots and family commitments that this online baby is completely neglected.
But then, it never ceases to surprise me any less. Lite Bite is listed in the 'Indian Top Blog' List' of 2015 yet again….some good online karmas I suppose 🙂

I did my first few years of primary schooling in a small town called Zawar Mines, in Rajasthan.
Dad was a doctor, we lived in an independent spacious bungalow surrounded by huge garden on all the three sides of our house.
Mom converted the front portion into a cozy sit out. Small cement benches placed in the centre of soft and neatly manicured lawn decked with some rare and exotic varieties of flowering plants she collected from our LTC trips every year.

'All good food comes with a story, and the stories need sharing as much as the food'.
"Wait, don't keep that box for washing…taste the dish in it and tell me how is it?" asked hubby, who saw me holding and sniffing that small blue box. The tiny box and the food inside looked unfamiliar to me.
"Hmm..it does taste good, but what is it and how did it come in your lunch-bag?" staring at him, I asked.
"My colleague KC brought this Kulambu (curry) for lunch today. I found the recipe quite interesting and asked him to pack a little for me so that you can taste and try it at home." Hubby smiled and answered, clearing the doubt in my mind.

Passion creates positive energy and we feed on that energy to stay motivated. ~ #onlineread
I am blessed by a number of things I love to do. Painting, travelling, cooking, reading, sketching, gardening, photography and many such activities. I do not find my diverse interest as a dilemma and love to engage myself in some of these activities whenever time permits.
But – well, there exists another life. A real world, where there is a laundry to be cleared, grocery shopping, doctor's appointments, a hungry family to feed, activity classes for children and the never ending list of mundane daily chores.

"With extreme joy, we thank Sanjeeta KK of Lite Bites for photographing the recipes in Indu Bokaria's "Recipes from a Diary". Her warmth and friendliness coupled with dedication and passion makes her a pleasure to work with. We look forward to seeing our 76-page, all-colour cookbook in the hands of our readers. If you think the pages look delectable, then you know where the credit lies! Thank you Sanjeeta." Indu Bokaria, cookbook author.
These beautiful words of appreciation are written by the author of a cook book on her Facebook page for whom I did a photo-shoot last year.

Life does exist. It's the purpose that counts." ~Toba Beta
"Is your life passion-driven or purpose-driven" the lady sitting next to me in the lunch room asked.
I looked at her and smiled. I couldn't comprehend her question and was at a loss of words for a minute.
It was during a photo-shoot last week where I met this beautiful lady who works as an art director. She was assisting a jewellery shoot adjacent to my room. We were having lunch together when she checked my blog on her mobile and asked me about my work.

Creamy, mildly spicy and an exotic recipe, Paneer Pasanda is a very elaborate Indian dish served in many hi end restaurants in India. Cottage cheese are sliced into thin triangles which are stuffed with a paste of nuts, coated with chickpea flour marinate, deep fried and then dunked into rich creamy gravy to make a delicious Paneer Pasanda.
The preferred gravy for Paneer Pasanda is deep red in colour, which comes from ground tomatoes, deep fried onions and turmeric powder.

What You'll Get
The Issue: Unattainable Gifts for Underserved Youth
Bicycles are the most requested gift from kids who cannot afford them, according to TurningWheels For Kids founder Susan Runsvold and anecdotes from social workers. But the gift of a bicycle is out of reach for many of the nearly 22% of California children who live below the poverty line, according to data from Kidsdata.org. By building new bicycles and repairing used bikes, community members can give youth a tangible gift, a source of exercise, and lasting childhood memories.
The Campaign: Building Bikes for Bay Area Youth
All donations to this Grassroots campaign will be used by TurningWheels For Kids to give bicycles to youth to ride around their neighborhoods. For every $85 raised, the organization can provide a bicycle and helmet for one Bay Area child. Anonymous donors will provide up to $7,500 in matching donations.
These bicycles and helmets go to children whose families could not otherwise afford them. They use them to play outside in their neighborhoods, maintain a healthy weight, and get to and from school. The organization builds bikes during monthly events and an annual Big Bike Build in December, which gives bikes to parents at local charities so they can deliver them to their children on Christmas.
The Fine Print
100% of donations go directly to TurningWheels For Kids. All donations matched up to $7,500 by anonymous donors. Donations are automatically applied. See Grassroots FAQs that apply to this campaign. Merchant is solely responsible to purchasers for the care and quality of the advertised goods and services.
About TurningWheels For Kids
Susan Runsvold describes Christmas 2003 as the worst of her life. She was visiting her grandchildren to celebrate but could "barely get into the living room because of all the presents." Once they began opening them, her grandkids—like many families—only cared about opening the next gift. Having grown up in a low-income family, she was dismayed by the extravagance and decided to change things from then on.
Recalling her own childhood and how she used to worry she wouldn't be able to get any presents at all, Runsvold realized that the best way to help her family adopt a new mindset would be to teach them about the value of giving. As a child, she remembered always wanting a bike but assuming it was out of reach, so she decided to help other children get bikes for Christmas.
In her first year, Runsvold raised $843 from friends and took her grandson to buy bicycles for children from low-income families. From there, interest grew as community members and storeowners flocked to donate. TurningWheels For Kids has donated more than 18,000 bikes through neighborhood bike-repair clinics, bike builds at pediatric centers, and the annual Big Bike Build, during which 1,000 volunteers build bicycles for the holidays and donate them to families through local nonprofit organizations.
"A bike opens a whole new world to" recipients, Runsvold said. One boy explained that his bike gave him a sense of self-reliance because it made getting to school easier. Others ride with their families as outdoor bonding time. Many youth continue with the program for years after they receive their bike, often helping build and repair bicycles at events. Runsvold sees this relationship as a way for people to be a part of a community where "one hand washes the other"—or hands out a helmet and a pair of wheels.

I'm not going to lie... I feel that the story had too much sex in the plot! There was a time when I got tired of reading them both sucking off thir dicks but I also know that sometimes it was incredibly sexy, so... it's ok I guess.
I was more concentrated in Grimmjow and Ichigo than Starrk. I like him as a character, but I don't see him with Ukitake or the other Captain. It was really weird for me all the time.
I felt very sorry for Byakuya, too. Uhg, being with Yammy must have been horrible. Thank God Rukia died. Byakuya would rather die than be seen that way by his sister.
But overall, I amused myself reading your story.
Thanks for everything.
And sorry for my english, lol.

| coraz chapter 4 . 4/5/2015
Hi! I truly like the concept of the good and bad side of the primera. I didn't grasp that in your "saki and amaretto" story but the way it is presented here is very convincing. I especially liked one of your last sentences, about starrk knowing right and wrong and lilinette not, it was quite a brilliant notion.
| coraz chapter 2 . 4/5/2015
Ah! damn, this chapter was good ;) first, I like the fact that grimmjow has once fallen for Nel, this part was very cute and surprising. Then, the fishing part was very funny. I wonder what will happen with tesla involvement though...
| HikariKurayami88 chapter 45 . 3/8/2015
Kind of a very anti climatic ending. It feels as though as if some parts are still incomplete. it would be good if you wrote another chapter as an epilogue. maybe explaining more about ichigo and the children in the king's realm/ging back to soul society or even a scene of shunsui and juushiro finding starrk. Very good story otherwise.

1. Spiritual Formation among graduate students, faculty, and professionals given the unique pressures and challenges that they face in their lives and families.
2. Ethnic Integrity within the context of situations where they are tempted to deny the reality of who they are in their ethnicity, and yet being able to relate constructively within a very diverse ethnic environment.
3. Academic and Professional Integration where they will be able to think through the implications of their academic or their professional lives and relate it to their faith in Christ and commitment to Scripture. It is important to establish the linkage between faith and their work.
4. Church Participation so that they can be ministered to in a sensitive way by their local churches, as well as bring their own training as a resource for the growth and development of the church. In short, churches that know how to minister to them, as well as provide opportunities for them to minister.

Hey, I'm Leonie. I'm 26, work full time in a car dealership so I do work a lot of hours. I'm a from New Zealand, been here for 2 and half years and love it her. I'm relaxed, clean and tidy. I'm happy to sit down and have a beer or wine but I'm also respectful of peoples space as I know sometimes you just want to chill. I have my own bedroom furniture and a small fridge. I love cars, going out to shows, going out for dinner, movies etc. No animals but I love animals so a house with pets is a bonus :)
