The past two days, I've spent quite a bit of time remembering much of what I enjoyed most about blogging — the community, the camaraderie. I know it's been three months since I've written here, but often, things change. Sadly, sometimes they change forever.

Maple Mousse in a Phyllo Nest with Strawberry and Mango Sauce and a Maple Balsamic Reduction
After all the years I've spent experimenting with recipes I feel I've got a decent grasp of which flavors work together, but tend to be a traditionalist — especially in the savory department. Cilantro goes with onion, tomatoes, spicy peppers, and citrus. Basil goes with tomatoes, onions, garlic, and olive oil. Bell peppers go with celery and onions. Once in a while, I'll play around with one of the combinations, but not often.
I scan the ingredient list of an accomplished chef's recipe and think, really? wondering where their inspiration comes from. I dissect it with my own familiarity of and opinion about each flavor in an attempt to understand how one works with the other, but know that my simple lack of experience is my biggest obstacle. It's a slow process, but it works if I'm in the mood to tackle one of the often complicated recipes. Again — not very often. And even when I do, the experience is rarely if ever repeated, so my ability to grow knowledge beyond my traditional ingredient choices peters out. Well, except for that dense, rich, dark chocolate tart I've made a few times with cayenne and chipotles in adobo. But still.
A good example of my semi lack of awareness would be with maple syrup. It makes me think of breakfast: bacon or ham, eggs, hash browns. I think of Fall for some reason because I think of apples. Apples + maple syrup + walnuts = great with a German pancake. Chalk this up to someone who grew up about as far as one can get from maple trees and their accompanying "sugaring-off" season which occurs as winter's cold temperatures wane into spring. Sasha Chapman's article "The Sweet Life: Maple Syrup Season in Quebec" published this past March in Saveur magazine provided an excellent foundation to restructure my thinking about maple flavored anything — authentically, of course. I was drawn into Chapman's nostalgic description of how Canadians gather in the "sugar shack" and work within the family to make syrup, waiting for that first taste of the season.
Why use maple syrup as an example to explain my not so edge-cutting ingredient combining ability? Because it's what the Daring Bakers were challenged with this month. Color me surprised. The April 2011 Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Evelyne of the blog Cheap Ethnic Eatz. Evelyne chose to challenge everyone to make a maple mousse in an edible container. Prizes are being awarded to the most creative edible container and filling, so vote on your favorite from April 27th to May 27th at http://thedaringkitchen.com!
I had to do a bit of reading to get my head out of my maple syrup rut and consider what flavors might work with a mousse.
It's spring…
There are berries everywhere…
…and mangoes.
Resisting the addition of a chiffonade of basil, a piquant maple balsamic vinegar reduction was added, and voila.
Chocolate Valentino Cake with Strawberry Banana Ice Cream
As the morning unfolds on this the day of the February Daring Baker's reveal, I'm proud to say I finished my challenge a few weeks ago, which could imply that this post was written and ready to auto publish at midnight. But no. I guess that with respect to me, it is possible to be too organized. Best laid plans, right?
Tuiles and Orange Yogurt Sabayon
Thursday: 8:10 am
I swore I'd not be late on this month's Daring Baker's challenge. I even mentioned to others I'd complete it two weeks into the month, but time has a way of passing so quickly these days and before I knew it, this week was upon me and bearing down hard.
Two days ago, I cut some forms for the tuiles we are to have made. And even yesterday, I retrieved some egg whites from the freezer to thaw so I could begin work. But did I? No. So here I am today just getting started.
I know what you're thinking. What a slacker. And you'd be right, but it's only a bit after 8am, and I've got plenty of time even with the refrigeration time that's required for the recipe.
I'm thinking that zabaglione or pots de creme should go with my tuiles. But I'll let you know. So come back later even though you've got hundreds of others to visit. I'll be posting in stages. This month's challenge is
brought to us by Karen of Bake My Day and Zorra of 1x umruehren bitte
aka Kochtopf. They have chosen Tuiles from The Chocolate Book by
Angélique Schmeink and Nougatine and Chocolate Tuiles from Michel Roux.
11:12 am
The good news is that it's still Thursday. Even better? I'm done with the tuiles! They're very easy to make, but do require a 30-minute refrigeration time before baking, and if you're me, then you forgot to turn on the oven and had to wait an addition period of time after the cookies were were already on the chilled baking sheets. It never fails…
Very few ingredients are needed to make tuiles: only 1/4 c. softened butter, 1/2 c. sifted powdered sugar, 1/2 c. sifted all-purpose flour, 2 large egg whites, and a splash of vanilla.
The soft butter and powdered sugar are mixed to a paste, the egg whites added gradually while stirring to bring the mixture together.
The flour is added gradually as well, stirring, but not over-mixing until everything comes together. A splash of vanilla is incorporated and then the whole mixture goes into the fridge for about 30 minutes. Line the baking sheets with parchment or silicone and chill them as well.
Use some cardboard to cut out the shape you'd like to use. I used corregated cardboard and then pinched the inside edges before using an offset spatula to spread batter over the forms.
If you'd like, add some of the cocoa powder to a small amount of the batter and mix well before spooning it into a decorators bag with a plain tip. Make whatever decorations you'd like and then put the sheets into a 350 degrees F oven for about 7 minutes or until the edges of the tuiles are barely brown.
Remove them immediately from the pan with a thin edged spatula and use wooden spoon handles or rolling pins to shape them. But you really have to hurry, because if you don't, then yours will be as flat and crisp as mine, poor little cute things.
Have some fun making other shapes, too, and maybe, just maybe, you'll be able to twist a few!
Okay, off to make the dessert they'll go in.
6:30 pm
Yes, it's late. A lot later than I thought I'd be, but the goings on of a day tend to make some things take longer than I'd like. Especially this dessert which, by comparison, is very easy.
Orange Sabayon
1 lg. egg
1 lg. egg yolk
1/3 c. sugar
zest of 1 orange
1/3 c. freshly squeezed orange juice
1 T lemon juice
For the dessert…
1 orange
0% fat Greek yogurt
Prepare an ice bath in a bowl large enough to set the top pan of a double boiler.
In the top of a double boiler pan, whisk the eggs until foamy. Gradually mix in the sugar whisking until well combined. Add the juices and the zest, mixing well. Place the pan over a gently simmering pan of water and stir the citrus mixture constantly until the mixture thickens like a pudding. Place the pan in the ice bath and continue to stir until it cools.
To create a light dessert, section an additional orange and place the segments in a wide-mouthed glass. Make sure they're well drained or the juice will pool in the bottom of the glass. In a small bowl mix 1/2 of the chilled sabayon and 1/4 c. of the yogurt. To serve, mound the orange yogurt sabayon over the oranges. Don't forget to include the tuiles!
- The tuiles are surprisingly easy to make. Unfortunately, I baked mine for 7 minutes instead of 5 while I was looking for the browned edges and then didn't move quite fast enough to get them positioned over the rolling pin and wooden spoon handles. I did have a chance to try it with another batch, so know not to bake them quite so long.
- The sabayon is also easy to put together. If you wanted to fatten it up a bit, you could mix it with whipped cream and/or a bit of mascarpone.
Daring Bakers: Caramel Cake with Caramelized Brown Butter Frosting
Here I am on a Saturday morning, writing the post for the Daring Bakers' November challenge. It's due today, but with all the chaos of construction in our house, and cooking for Thanksgiving, somehow there wasn't time to write. Let me rethink that: I didn't feel like writing until this morning. In fact, baking hasn't been all that enjoyable since the space I normally work in is being shared with this Mac, a printer, and all sorts of other lovely things that usually have places somewhere upstairs, like bills, and catalogues, magazines I've got recipes tagged in, and things I don't want to lose track of — like the check book we couldn't find yesterday when we needed it for the contractor. It's a complete dust covered disaster.
To complete the image, my son's computer is set up on a card table directly behind mine, so it's a tight squeeze with the two of us sitting back to back, clicking and pecking away.
Needless to say, my kitchen is always in some stage of being used and in a reduced space, I'm exhausted with trying to make it look reasonable, too. Good thing this month's challenge was such a breeze — and a completely delicious one!
This month, we've had the opportunity to delve into Eggbeater author & chef Shuna Fish Lydon's recipe for Caramel Cake with Caramelized Butter Frosting. Additionally, we could choose to make Alice Medrich's Golden Vanilla Bean Caramels, but I bowed out on this one to save for another time. Many thanks to this month's hosts, Dolores of Chronicles in Culinary Curiosity, Alex of Blondie and Brownie, and Jenny of Foray into Food, for such excellent choices. Natalie of Gluten a Go Go assisted with quantities and ingredients for alternative diets. Nice job, ladies!
Browned Butter and Caramel? Oh my. Absolutely perfect flavors for the season! Wait. Isn't browned butter good in any season?
That's what I thought. Now add some lovely hazelnuts and pear crisps and voila!

Lyon Travel Blog› entry 1 of 5 › view all entries
I had a bit of difficulty getting to Lyon. My flight the previous day from Trondheim, Norway was cancelled and I was literally stuck in Hell for the day (see my blog "So, this is Hell?"). I flew into Paris and took the TGV (French: Train à Grande Vitesse, high-speed train) which was a fairly speedy journey to Lyon I must say. On the way to the hotel the skies began to look rather grim. A short time after my arrival and settling in my room I heard the most incredible noise coming from outside. It turns out there was a hail storm going on. I have a film of it available here. At any rate, the area near the hotel I was staying at had plenty of shops and restaurants around so I would be not for lack of places to dine at. Food in Lyon is quite exceptional anyway so I was sure to have some good dining experiences.

Nike is under fire for offering police officers a 30% discount for a "law enforcement appreciation day."
Critics are blasting the brand for supporting law enforcement in the wake of a string of shootings involving police officers who killed black men, Quartz reports.
The May 13 promotion coincides with National Police Week, Quartz points out.
But it comes just one month after two nationally publicized shootings — one in South Carolina and one in Oklahoma — in which two black citizens, Walter Scott and Eric Harris, were killed by law enforcement officers.
Critics have called the promotion tone-deaf and now some are calling for a boycott of the sportswear company.
In a statement to Business Insider, Nike said it has held discount days in its stores for first responders, including law enforcement and the military, since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks against the US.
"Nike has no intention to offend anyone, nor to imply that we are insensitive to the serious and important issues between law enforcement and black communities in America," the company said. "We care about and support efforts to continue discussions to create positive change and bring equality for everyone in our society."

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Norman Conquest of England of 1066. The Muskett family lived in Suffolk. Their name, however, is a reference to Mousquette, Normandy, the family's place of residence prior to the Norman Conquest of England in 1066.
Muskett Early Origins
Suffolk where they held a family seat as Lords of the Manor. The name was originally Mousquette and is from Normandy from a place of that name. It is not known when they settled in Suffolk but it is presumed to be about the late 12th century. They settled in the parish of Haughleigh in that shire and became Lords of the Manor.
Muskett Spelling Variations
Muskett Spelling Variations
A multitude of spelling variations characterize Norman surnames. Many variations occurred because Old and Middle English lacked any definite spelling rules. The introduction of Norman French to England also had a pronounced effect, as did the court languages of Latin and French. Therefore, one person was often referred to by several different spellings in a single lifetime. The various spellings include Musket, Muscat, Muscet, Muskett, Muskatt, Muskat, Muskot, Muskott, Mousket, Mouskett, Mouskette, Mousquette, Muskit, Muskitt and many more.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Many English families left England, to avoid the chaos of their homeland and migrated to the many British colonies abroad. Although the conditions on the ships were extremely cramped, and some travelers arrived diseased, starving, and destitute, once in the colonies, many of the families prospered and made valuable contributions to the cultures of what would become the United States and Canada. Research into the origins of individual families in North America has revealed records of the immigration of a number of people bearing the name Muskett or a variant listed above:
Muskett Settlers in United States in the 17th Century
Muskett Settlers in United States in the 19th Century
Muskett Settlers in Australia in the 19th Century
Muskett Settlers in New Zealand in the 19th Century

1552 Goldcliff Circle Washington, DC (PressExposure) May 11, 2009 -- Almost everyone has their own website. To put it correctly almost everyone today has their very own blog, which considered as a basic website. It can have anything in it, thoughts, photos, anything! But have you considered blogs as something more than just your online bulletin board?
If youâve been watching the internet trend, blogs have gained quite a high status when it comes to internet users. Back then people blogs were synonymous to online diaries, where people write about their day or their unrequited love. Nowadays, blogs have taken on a more profitable role. Companies are setting up blogs to post their latest events or product updates.
Blogs are not an exception when it comes to web design. According to an Orange County Web Design firm, Crest Media Inc., blogs have become important to companies wanting to reach to out to a serious chunk of internet users, other bloggers. Also, at present, search engines such as Google are giving higher ranks to blog posts which make it a must have aside from your main website.
When it comes to blog designs, according to this Orange County Web Design firm, you should still follow conventional design concepts. First of all, make your blog fit your content, avoid default designs and take your time to learn how to change your blogs appearance. Most blog sites today use CSS to change the page look and the content behavior. If you donât know how, there are a lot of tutorials on the net which you can experiment to give you the look that you want.
Remember that your design should complement your content and that your content should still be the star of the show. Place your content on the most noticeable area on your page and make it stand out. Donât go overboard and think about getting your content on the screen as fast as possible. Minimize your graphics and again use CSS for the most part of your design.
The truth is the magic word these days is âCSSâ since it really does wonders for any blog or website. So tinker with your blog and make it your own.

Hope on the horizon for subcontractors
A sub contractor affected by the collapse of National Buildplan says she is relieved the government wants to keep local workers on at hospital projects in the Central West.
Work at the Dubbo Base Hospital and Gulgong Multipurpose Service stopped when the company went into administration earlier this month.
Both Health Infrastructure and Member for Dubbo Troy Grant have confirmed a desire to re-engage affected sub contractors once a new builder has been appointed.
Rebecca Crowley from a local plumbing company says workers are facing big work gaps.
"Possibly six to 12 months work that we'd scheduled into our plan for 2013, we weren't sure what we were going to do if we didn't retain that sub contract," she said.
"In the way the world economy and just the local economy is and the amount of projects that are not happening around the area at the moment, we need any kind of work that we can get."
Ms Crowley says she is also hopeful of assistance from the state government.
She says Mr Grant is looking into it.
"Not that they're going to give us the money but investigating whether or not we can look into interest free loans and that sort of thing.
"We've also requested Health do up a letter for us for the Australian Tax Office for anyone that's been affected by the collapse of National Buildplan so they're also aware of our situation."

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
I have Cloudshot set to drop stuff into Clouddrop but after each grab I get an error saying that Cloudshot can't find part of the path.
Same here. It's looking for:
<my dir>\shot_11\19\xxx.png
It should either create the missing dirs or not try to store there.
Yes, the exact error wording on mine for a recent shot is
'Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\Edward\Dropbox\shot_11\19\2011_65542_pm.jpeg'.
I've been looking at this.. some things that I've found so far:
1. The error occurs on both Windows XP and Windows 7 in my testing
2. Based on this bug:
I don't see the above as the cause.. Everything I've done permission-wise is not solving the problem. Most of what I've found on the Internet mentions this as a permissions issue. There's even a fix here: http://url.cwl.cc/nkmzl
3. Creating the date-based directory structure "\shot_11\19" in this case, allows CloudShot to create the file and carry on. This would require creation of this directory structure every day for the application to work.
4. Creating half of the directory structure "\shot_11\" in this case, does not correct the issue
5. I have not been able to get this software working post-installation once without some sort of interaction.
6. on Windows XP, I used Sysinternals Procmon to watch the process. CloudShot was set to save a screen shot to C:\ - the following is what procmon sees: http://twitpic.com/7gkyvy/full
So, it would appear as though CloudShot checks the root, then the full path, then part of the path and then fails. It would seem better to just create the image file in the location specified and not hard code a dated path reference.
This seems like a useful tool and it would be a shame for it to remain in this unusable state.
Yes. Same problem. I'll wait to see if there's an update.
Same problem with me. Hope this gets sorted. This is a great little program.
I have been fixed this error.
Please check new version of CloudShot.
It works! Thanks name1essOne!

'Gajar ka Halwa' - the most common dessert recipe at any occasion that is prepared to heighten the festive mood of the programs, is definitely what we've been used to feasting with.
Whether it is Diwali or Karwa Chauth, you can't imagine the festivity without Gajar ka Halwa. It is a sweet dish made with carrots, milk, cream, sugar and dry fruits.
On Karwa Chauth, all married women keep fast for the longevity and well-being of their husband. They keep the fast for the whole day and they break their fast after worshipping the moon, and taking water and food from their husbands' hand.
The idea of the entire occasion is very romantic and you can make it even more sweeter by making sweet recipes such as gajar ka halwa.
Here, we'll be sharing the complete recipe of gajar ka halwa and the ingredients that are required to prepare this. Take a look.

3. Let it be cooked for one whistle. Not more than that.
4. Now, remove the blanched carrot into a non-stick pan. It's time to add sugar in it. If you want it sweeter, you can add more sugar.
6. Mix it well and add mawa to make it creamier.
7. Stir well and add raisins, almonds, etc., and cardamom powder into the halwa and mix everything well.
8. Your Gajar ka Halwa is ready to be served.
10. Take it into a serving bowl and garnish with some chopped almonds.
Do try this recipe and let us know your feedback.

About CP Tours
It all started with Cycle Party (CP = Cycle Party). In Germany in 2011, we saw a party of festive people on a very large bike cruising the streets of Freiburg and having a great time. We immediately thought this would be a wonderful fit for South Florida. In January 2012, Chris, Simon, Aileen, and Michael started the business of Cycle Party with this environment-friendly, fun concept. We now operate in 3 cities in South Florida: Miami, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. Cycle Party has become one of the great pleasures of South Florida.
Riverwalk Recreation, our second tour business opened in 2015, plays an exciting part in activating the downtown Riverwalk area of Fort Lauderdale. Toward the end of 2015, we rebranded all of our products as CP Tours. Under that banner, we now offer a variety of tours–on land and water–using quadracycles, bicycles, electric scooters, kayaks, and paddleboards. And we stay true to our vision of using environment-friendly, human-powered vehicles (with some electric assist to nudge along those who need a little help). We offer truly unique and fun experiences on both land and water for both locals AND tourists. Experience the pleasures of South Florida in an entirely new way!

What we have in Fort Lauderdale:
Cycle Party | Bikes | 3-Wheel Scooters
Kayaks | Paddleboards

text: Hi all Not just because I love Disney, but I just love Orlando. The palm trees, the excitement, etc. Is this a stupid reason for wanting to move to a new town? I live in Pittsburgh and I'm so bored with life here, (besides the Steelers lol) and I want to move somewhere, and I figure why not go somewhere I love? Whenever I mention it to my family, they roll their eyes. I don't want to move there forever,,,but maybe I just need to get it out of my system? I even got a job at the Disney Store to try to get Disney out of my system, but I was only hired for holiday help and had to quit because they were only giving me 3-5 hours a week. That mall's closing soon too. Any thoughts? I feel like even if I do make the decision, I will be embarrased to tell my family, they think it would be ridiculous. Thanks all, love ya!

And it is because I live in a town with rich, snooty white folk, that I love driving the biggest piece of shit of machinery ever known to man. I have mentioned him previously in past blog posts, but I have never truly gone into depth about this shitty, shitty vehicle.
Firstly, I'll explain that my mom had a 2003 Hyundai Elantra for a while until it was totaled in an accident in which 2 hippies hit us and broke the axels. Thanks a lot you hippie whores.
When we sold the car for scrap metal, we received a charitable $3,500 from the dooshbags over in midfucknowhere-ville New Jersey. With the small amount of money we had, we went to our friend Will whom owns a garage and gas station in Princeton.
His neighborhood of business is full of both Mexicans and drug dealers, the ideal spot for selling and repairing cars.
He gave us a few options and since she was in charge of the money, she got to decide which car we were going to spend the next few years driving. God damn do I wish I was the one in charge.
This car is a 1997 Subaru Outback which looks exactly likes a station wagon but drives like an old man's anus. I'll go into details into the specifications a little later.
Before I show any pictures of MY actual car, I'd like to let you all know that you can actually SEE the same exact car within the first 8 seconds of the intro of the show The Sopranos.
There it is, right in the middle. The big, blue hunk of shit right there. You have no idea how hard my nipples were when I saw that. First of all, I have a severe addiction to the Sopranos and have stopped spending my Summer trying to get pussy but instead watching this show. I am up to Season 3 and my Italian accent gets a little thicker with every episode.
Coincidentally, I have developed a cigar smoking habit and my chest hair as grown at an exponential rate. I can only imagine this is because of my love for Tony Soprano. RIP James Gandolfini
So now that I've explained to you why I have this car, I think I should go into detail about how much of a piece of whore shit this car is. Okay, first lets start off with some lovely photographs.
It almost looks like it's crying.
Yes, yes, that IS a fucking apple sticker my mom put on the back of the car. And YES, YES, THAT IS MY MOMS FUCKING BLOG ON A FUCKING BUMPERSTICKER ON MY FUCKING RATCHETASSFUCKING CAR.
Then you have all the dents, scratches, and broken parts thanks to its previous owners.
On a sidenote- I went through the car's glovebox and found a photograph of 2 black children. I am not joking, this really happened to me. My car was formerly driven by a black man/woman with 2 small children. Okie dokie.
For added Ghettofab, I threw some dice in the mirror. I think it says, "I'm not only poor but I think I'm black too!"
Take a close look here and you'll notice that my car has a Tape deck.Yes, this fucking car is so old that it actually can play tapes. I'll bet at least 6 of my readers don't even fucking know what tapes are.
Now that you've seen the car's lovely interior and exterior, we can all enjoy the specifications of this hunk of shit on wheels.
Now, I'm going to make a little chart with all the 'Good' things about the car and all the 'Shitty' things. You might notice that all the 'Good' things actually just make it more ratchet.
- Has brakes that only 'sometimes' works
- Gets 20 miles to the gallon
- Has no horsepower
- Front right blinker doesn't work and can't be fixed because its too rusty
- The car windshield is always dirty, no matter how often you clean it
- Starts to smoke and make violent noises if you leave it parked too long with the engine running
- Leaks oil everywhere
- Looks like a rapist
- The Air conditioning is ALWAYS on, even when you don't want it to be
- Has rust in places you didn't know rust could form
- Has a great Bass system so when you bump your Hilary Duff it sounds amazing
- Has a gigantic trunk to put dead bodies in
- Is in the first 8 seconds of every Sopranos episode
I wanted to write more Good things about the car, but came to the realization that there is almost nothing good about this 1997 Subaru Outback.
The truly GREAT thing about this vehicle though, is that when you get in its like a cool gamble of whether or not you're going to make it there alive.
Between the engine that just might explode at any given moment, to the lack of adequate brakes, your life is almost in extreme peril every time you get behind the wheel.
How this car has passed inspection I have no fucking idea but lets all hope and pray that somewhere along the line I can get a replacement or at least new vehicle before I die.
Also, if anybody would like to BUY this car, I'm starting the bidding at $1.25

My son and daughter (ages 28 and 25) and I will be traveling to the South Island in mid-January 2017. We've pretty much booked the travel and accommodations, and now we're deciding what we want to do when we're there.
Here's our itinerary:
Arrive Auckland from SFO, fly to Wellington same day, spend the night in Wellington
Ferry from Wellington to Picton, stay 3 nights
Ferry from Picton to Wellington, fly to Dunedin, rent car
3 nights at farm stay on Otago Peninsula
Drive rental car to Manapouri, stay 3 nights
Drive rental car to Queenstown, stay 1 night
Fly from Queenstown to Auckland, stay 1 night
Fly back to US
We're most interested in seeing wildlife, especially penguins, and a wine tour while in Picton. We'd rather stick with small tours and avoid crowds when possible (though I know it's high tourist season...) Any recommendations for good small-tour operators and particular excursions?

What to do in Picton, Dunedin & Manapouri

<<Ferry from Wellington to Picton, stay 3 nights
Ferry from Picton to Wellington, fly to Dunedin, rent car>>
Really? Have you considered flying from Nelson to Dunedin instead?
The ferry ride isn't cheap and takes a lot of time, taking it back to Wellington seems a waste of valuable time IMO.
Curious why you're going to Wellington at all if you don't plan to spend any time there? Flying right to the SI from Auckland makes more sense, as you're not spending any time on the North Island.
To me, the ferry is just another mode of transport. A slow, lumbering one at that. Fine once, but twice in three days?
Do you like to walk? If so, I strongly suggest you take the water taxi from Picton to Ship Cove, walk the 15 km on the Queen Charlotte Track to Furneaux Lodge, then take the water taxi back to Picton.
Barring that, taking the mail boat into the sounds will also give you a nice taste of the area. Although this may not appeal since you'll be taking the ferry twice.
I can suggest other walks in the area if you're interested.
There's a nice museum aboard a ship in Picton - the Edwin Fox.
The wineries of Blenheim are only 25 minutes away. Most of the tour operators are small, no need to worry about crowds really.
Curious about the three night stay in Manapouri too - I've done this myself, but I had specific reasons for staying there - it's an odd plan for a first time visitor.
Manapouri is a a very small settlement and where the Doubtful Sound cruise leaves from, but, not much else on offer unless you like to hike, or if you're using it as a base to explore some lesser know areas on the Southern Scenic Route, or as an alternative to staying in Te Anau.
Do you plan to take the Doubtful Sound Cruise? Do you plan to drive to Milford Sound on one of the Manapouri days?

Have you been to the South Island before?
For Dunedin, I recommend the Elm Peninsula Encounters Wildlife Tour. Have a look at reviews.
This is a small group tour. I've taken it twice. I think there were about 8 people on the tour. In summer they'll have two tours going out each afternoon, but you won't be looking at the wildlife at the same time.
The tour starts in the afternoon and runs about 5 hours. Some walking uphill is required, unless you opt for the "lite" tour. Try to take the tour on a sunny, dry day. You might want to email them and ask if you need to book ahead. The weather should be okay in late January, but please bring attire for cold, rain, and especially wind. You should pack a snack and some water. You will see Northern Royal Albatrosses, Yellow Eyed Penguins, NZ Sea Lions, NZ Fur Seals, Otago Shags (a type of rare cormorant), and many other birds including Royal Spoonbills. You're coming at a great time for wildlife viewing. Elm's guides are highly knowledgeable.
If you can't get enough of penguins, also visit Penguin Place. In addition to its penguin nesting sites, they also operate a penguin "hospital," where various species of penguins found injured, sick or starving along the Otago Coast are taken for treatment before being re-released into the wild. Your admission partly goes toward funding it. See reviews:
You'll explore their large property on camouflaged walking paths and view penguins from hides. If you go here, go on a late afternoon tour as Yellow Eyed Penguins return from the sea in the late afternoon.
Please keep in mind Yellow Eyed Penguins are solitary and anti-social, so you won't see large groups of them as you would with other penguin species. They are also the world's rarest and most endangered penguin species. There aren't too many on the NZ mainland, only 200 pairs as of 2015. You can read more about them here:
If you would like to see Little Blue Penguins, I recommend Blue Penguins Pukekura at Taiaroa Head (home of the Northern Albatross Colony). It gets crowded in peak season, so I would go early to get a place up front. Unlike the solitary Yellow Eyed Penguins, the Little Blue Penguins gather offshore in groups ("rafts") then swim ashore together in the early evening, as the last light is on the horizon. Very cute little penguins! Little Blue Penguins can also be found in Australia, but the two species are distinct:
Will you be staying at the farm stay at Allans Beach? If so, Allans Beach is great for wildlife viewing. It's my favorite Otago Peninsula beach, which is best enjoyed at low tide on a sunny day. You might want to visit Sandfly Bay as well, though you'll need to glide down some steep sand dunes. If you need groceries, shop in downtown Dunedin before you drive out to the peninsula, as there are no supermarkets on the peninsula or petrol stations. The New World Market Centre City has the widest choices, though prices might be lower at Pak "n" Save or Countdown. If you go to the New World Centre City, afterwards stop for a quick look at Dunedin's Railway Station before you drive out to the peninsula.
I agree with Melnq8 that you might not want to catch the ferry back to Wellington. But as you wrote that your accommodation are already booked, perhaps no changes can be made to your schedule? She's also noted that you won't have enough time to see Wellington. There's an excellent wildlife sanctuary in Wellington, but you'll probably be too jet-lagged to do more than visit Te Papa National Museum, walk along the waterfront and have a nice early dinner. All the same, here's a link to Zealandia:
Also following up on what Melnq8 said about three nights in Manapouri. It's a good base for doing the Doubtful Sound cruise (I recommend the overnight cruise as opposed to the day cruise), but I'd shift one of your three nights to Queenstown (assuming you've never been here before). Because one night in Queenstown is not enough. If you don't like the idea of busy Queenstown, consider stunning Glenorchy. Or Wanaka, which is close to Mt. Aspiring National Park.
One day in Auckland will also be not enough. Auckland also has a wonderful wildlife sanctuary, Tiritiri Matangi in Hauraki Gulf.

Melnq8 and Diamantina,
Thanks for your suggestions. I know it seems like an atypical itinerary, but we were trying to balance several factors.
We only have 2 weeks because my kids' work schedules don't allow for more. Our main objective is to be outside and see wildlife, and the South Island seemed better for that, hence our decision to essentially skip the North Island. We're not really interested in cities, so again, not any real time in Auckland, Wellington or Queenstown.
We wanted a car in Dunedin, but we didn't want to have to drive right after arriving, so without a car, we thought Picton seemed like a decent place to start, being near to wildlife, walks and wine tours. Getting to Dunedin from Picton was definitely a puzzle, but a second ferry ride seemed more appealing (with the possibility of being 'outside'), rather than taking some other form of land transportation to another airport, where there didn't seem to be any direct flights to Dunedin. As it is, we're hoping to roll out of bed in Picton, catch the ferry, relax on the way, and have time for a leisurely lunch in Wellington before our plane leaves for Dunedin in the late afternoon. Diamantina, thank you for all the details about staying on the Otago Peninsula - very helpful.
And Melnq8, the reasons for the 3 night stay in Manapouri are very much as you guessed: we "like to hike, AND [we're] using it as a base to explore some lesser know areas on the Southern Scenic Route, AND as an alternative to staying in Te Anau."
Finally, we're not really staying in Queenstown proper (not really interested in the busy parts). We were looking for a place near an airport where we could return the car and get back to Auckland easily as we make our way back home. So we're staying at an Airbnb place in Arrow Junction and hoping to get in just a little hiking or walking before we have to head back.
I wish we had more time! But we feel fortunate to get to see at least some of the country. With that more elaborate description of our plans and motivations, if you have any more suggestions for hikes, walks, wildlife encounters, kayaking maybe, we'd love your ideas!
Thanks again!

Well, in that case, some hiking suggestions:
Kepler Track - easy access from Manapouri - it's a multi day hike, but also makes a great day hike.
One possibility is to begin at the Te Anau Control Gates, walk to Rainbow Reach, a tame section of the track that follows the Waiau River through beech forest. From Rainbow Reach you can backtrack or catch a shuttle back to the control gates - you'll need to check schedules.
Another option is to begin at Rainbow Reach and walk to Motarua Hutt and return - about 7.75 miles return - expect sandflies.
You can also walk a section of the Milford Track as a day walk - drive from Manapouri to Te Anau Downs, park your car and board the Real Journey's boat (you'll need to book the day before), which will take you to the start of the track at Glade Wharf.
You can then freedom walk a section of the track, backtrack and return to the boat, which will return you to the car park. We managed about 18.5 km this way (return). They also offer guides, but the track is easy to follow, so unless you want the commentary and a slower pace, just freedom walk.
Then of course there's the Routeburn Track, right off Milford Road - the hike to Key Summit is gorgeous on a pretty day.
For some other ideas on off-the-beaten track things to do from Manapouri, you might want to take a look at a trip we took a few years back, doing just that:
Another idea for Picton - the Snout Track - great views of the sounds from the end:
I'd also highly recommend Queen Charlotte Drive from Picton to Havelock:
Havelock is know for its green lipped mussels.
I will defer to Diamantina and her expertise on Dunedin.

If you have time, you'd enjoy the Otago Peninsula's Sandymount Track ( the short walk to Lover's Leap and the Chasm). It's my favorite non-beach walk on the peninsula. Gets windy but offers spectacular views on a clear sunny day.
Hoopers Inlet and Papanui Inlet are good for wading birds, kingfishers, and harrier hawks. Hoopers Inlet is also a great stargazing spot on a clear night.
Here's a link to a brochure for Dunedin walks:
And a map of the Otago Peninsula:
If you are lucky to get sunny clear weather, drive along Highcliff Road for brilliant harbour and ocean views.
If you don't do the Elm Wildlife Peninsula Encounters Tour (you absolutely should), then self-drive to Taiaroa Head too see the Northern Royal Albatrosses. While albatrosses can be seen from boats around the coast of the South Island, this is the only mainland albatross colony in the Southern Hemisphere (the majority of this particular endangered species nest on NZ's Chatham Islands on private farms inaccessible to the public)
Chicks start to hatch at the end of January/beginning of February. If you pay to enter the Albatross Centre, you will see adult albatrosses sitting on nests and possibly socialising. But you must watch them from a glass-enclosed hide with a TV screen that offers a closer look; sometimes the nests are close to the hide, sometimes not so close (the wild birds are free to nest where they like). Otherwise, you can see albatrosses flying above the colony for free. It takes a little patience. It's windy in January, and this is just what the albatrosses need for lift-off.
Here's a link to the Albatross Cam, though no one is "at home" at present.
Here's what you can see after the chicks are born (hide is in the background):
Elm would take you to Taiaroa Head, Hoopers Inlet, and a private farm with NZ Sea Lions, Yellow Eyed Penguins and a large NZ Fur Seal Colony populated by females and their pups.
Pukekura Blue Penguins and Elm Wildlife Peninsula Encounters tours must be done on two separate afternoons/nights.
Dunedin is one of the best places on the mainland for observing NZ Sea Lions, the world's most endangered sea lion. Sadly, one young female was shot over the weekend, probably from a boat. It is a devastation loss for the community and for the species. Six other local females are also missing.
The majority of NZ Sea Lions, once known as Hookers Sea Lions, breed in the
Subantarctic Islands, where the species is in decline.
Leaving Dunedin, if you luck out with a nice clear day, take a short walk on the Tunnel Beach Track. When parking your car, don't leave anything of great value in it. Lock your luggage is in the boot/trunk. This is a good rule no matter where you are.

Melnq8 and Diamantina,
Thank you both very much for your detailed replies! All the options sound like just what we're interested in, so your help will surely make our trip that much more memorable!

You're welcome. I hope you have great weather while on the Otago Peninsula When the sun's out and the sky is clear, it's stunning. The other side, or Port Chalmers side, is also wonderful, as is the area from Dunedin to Oamaru (more penguin nesting sites).
If you miraculously find yourself with time to spare, you'd enjoy Dunedin's Orokonui Ecosanctuary (on a sunny day) and nearby Aramoana.
Have you thought about the route you would take from Dunedin to Manapouri? In mid-January, the sun rises around 6:10 a.m. then sets at 9:30 p.m. so you have many daylight hours for your drive and time to take a break in-between.
From Dunedin to Nugget Point, a supremely beautiful spot in the Catlins, takes 90 minutes, though if you're starting on the Otago Peninsula, it'll take about 20 minutes longer, depending on your route and where you're staying on the peninsula.
From Nugget Point, it's about 2 hours 47 minutes to Manapouri, according to the AA Drive Distance Calculator. I assume this would involve backtracking to Balclutha, then driving through Clinton, Gore, Lumsden, Te Anau, then Manapouri (as opposed to following the longer Southern Scenic Route).

We had our political earthquake here in the U.S., but you had the real deal there in New Zealand. Sending our hopes that you're all safe and sound.

I'm looking at the special coverage on TVNZ and the images are shocking. Kaikoura is completely cut off with damaged roads north and south. Supplies are running low, communications are cut off.
Interisland ferries were cancelled, Picton and Wellington ferry docks were damaged (but I imagine these will be fixed as soon as possible). There is now a thunderstorm warning.
We are fortunate in that we did not feel the earthquake in Dunedin, and our tsunami warning has been lifted. But NZ in general is seismically active, on the Ring of Fire, so earthquakes can strike almost anywhere.
I felt the political earthquake, too—still feeling it, as I'm a U.S. expat.

Black Cap search successfully completed
Mission Accomplished. New Zealand Cricket has tracked down players to have represented the country in Test matches.
Players still living, or their descendants, have been receiving boxed special presentation black caps from NZC in a promotion aimed at recognising the part of those players in building New Zealand's place in the world game while also making the cap a prized possession for international players.
The job of tracking down the earliest Test players or their families has been the lot of NZC general manager Tim Murdoch and he was able to report today that the job is close to being collected.
Relying on contacts around the country who knew of the whereabouts of former players or their families, Murdoch had found all but two players, the deceased Sonny Moloney, a tourist to England in 1937 and Mal Matheson, who toured England in 1931.
It was Dunedin enthusiast, and CricInfo contributor Warwick Larkins who pieced together the final threads in NZC's search.
The Matheson saga was resolved by going back to the published death notice for Matheson and noting family members from that. The children had married and moved around the country.
But by consulting the Masterton phone book and checking out initials that were similar to the names in the death notice, Larkins rang a number of what he thought might be a daughter of Matheson, Catherine Penney. She confirmed that she was Matheson's daughter.
The clue for Moloney's family came from Larkins' father, Norrie. His father remembered that Sonny Moloney had a brother who became a surgeon, and that the brother had attended Otago Boys' High School.
Larkins consulted the OBHS register and found the name of Ted Moloney living at Oxford in England. He noted the address and then returned to Dunedin Library to find an old copy of the Oxford phone book.
The address he had from the register tied in with what was in the phone book, so he rang it.
It was the right Moloney all right, but Ted had died three years earlier. However, his wife Iris, who spoke to Larkins, and Ted had two sons and a daughter.
She said that there were no members of the Larkins family still living in New Zealand and she felt that one of Sonny Moloney's nephews, or his niece, might enjoy having their uncle's black cap.

Growing up in Miami, where I lived till I was 13, I worshipped the Hurricanes of the once-mighty U. Those 1980s and early 1990s teams were famous for the brash swagger that upended and scandalized the college football establishment.
In arguments with my great-uncle, a Notre Dame fan who loved the "Catholics vs. Convicts" tagline for those famous matchups, my Canes-fan father used to say he didn't care whether they had to pull Miami's starting team from the Dade County jail as long as it served up dominating defense.
So it's safe to say I didn't grow up in an atmosphere that looked upon college football as a time-honored bastion of traditional American values like humility and sportsmanship.
And after this season, if you still can't see what big time Division I football is all about, I don't guess you ever will.
On its website, the National Collegiate Athletic Association, the body that governs intercollegiate athletics, makes its mission statement clear:
"The NCAA's core purpose is to govern competition in a fair, safe, equitable and sportsman-like manner, and to integrate intercollegiate athletics into higher education so that the educational experience of the student-athlete is paramount."
There are real student-athletes, as the NCAA reminds us in its own commercial, one in a seemingly endless stream of ads we're forced to watch in between football games featuring future NFL millionaires. In all, there are more than 400,000 collegiate athletes, and most will be "going pro in something other than sports" after graduation, the spot says.
But I'm not sure that term should be extended to the big-money D-I collegiate sports, those that draw tens of thousands of spectators to stadiums every Saturday in the fall and generate millions of dollars in television revenue, ticket sales and merchandising every year.
If you are Ohio State's Terrelle Pryor, Auburn's Cam Newton, or any of the other dozens of superstar college players, it's clear that your primary job on your campus is to play ball and win games. Both Newton and Pryor were at the center of so-called scandals this year for alleged violations of NCAA rules. Newton, his father and an agent were accused of a "pay-to-play" scheme that supposedly involved his father trying to steer his son's considerable talents to schools in exchange for cash. Pryor and five teammates will have to sit out games next year for selling awards, gifts and university apparel and "receiving improper benefits and discounted services," the NCAA said. Of course, the NCAA took no action that might have kept Pryor and his teammates out of Monday's Sugar Bowl victory over Arkansas. And Newton was deemed eligible to play in the Bowl Championship Series National Championship game against Oregon next week.
The NCAA's limp attempts at disciplining both sets of players look foolish and expose more than ever the absurd hypocrisy of big-time college football. But even worse are the childish expressions of outrage from fans, bloggers and commentators who feel Pryror and Newton somehow tarnished the game or their schools.
Sports fans, universities and the media put a tremendous premium on winning. Television networks offer millions for broadcast rights. Players are looking for a shot at the pros and lucrative NFL contracts.
Why some people insist on pretending this is school-boy football, that these guys are out there smashing into each other for the love of alma mater and the grand traditions of the institutions they play for is beyond me. I'm not so cynical that I don't think players take genuine pride in their schools and care for their teammates and fans. Football demands group achievement and unit cohesion. And that works best when players respect each other and work toward a common goal. But getting indignant about Newton and Pryor and demanding they show contrition for their supposed offenses? Spare me. Universities make truckloads of cash from their unpaid labor and onfield successes, corporations shell out millions to get their names gaudily affixed to an ever-multiplying number of bowl games and networks and cable stations fight tooth and nail for broadcasting rights. College football is awash in money, and the only people who aren't getting a piece of it are the players. Sweater-vest-sporting Buckeyes coach Jim Tressel offered this gem during an obligatory head-shaking and finger-wagging news conference about Pryor and company selling some of their memorabilia, including championship rings. It encapsulates perfectly the disparity between college football's mythical values and reality.
"Maybe this generation doesn't understand the value of awards like we did," Tressel said, who, by the way, forced his players to commit to coming back to Ohio State this fall if they wanted to be eligible to play in the Sugar Bowl.
That's easy for you to say Jim, what with that $3.5 million salary you're drawing.

If you are noticing certain negative changes in your health and you are wondering if they could be signs of hormonal imbalance, you have come to the right place.
We often keep hearing the phrase "hormonal imbalance", and many of us may not be completely aware of what it actually means.
Hormones can be described as the chemical messengers or enzymes produced in the body, specifically in the endocrine glands, to carry out certain major bodily functions.
Hormones are responsible for some of the basic functions of the human body like inducing hunger, for reproductive activities, in the development of sexual organs, during menstruation, regulating emotions and much more.
There has to be a specific amount of hormones produced in the body; even if one hormone is produced in excess or if it decreases in production, it can give rise to a number of disorders.
There are certain very common signs of hormonal imbalance like weight gain, fatigue, etc.
Here are a few unusual signs that could tell you have a hormonal imbalance, have a look.
1. Constipation
Constipation could be a sign of hormonal imbalance, in which the thyroid hormone has a depleted production.
2. Bigger Eyes
If you notice that your eyes have widened all of a sudden, it could be a sign of hyperthyroidism, in which condition the thyroid hormone is produced in excess.
3. Stunted Hair Growth
Signs of hormonal imbalance include stunted hair growth due to the decreased production of certain growth hormones.
4. Memory Loss
Memory loss can also be a sign of hormonal imbalance when the thyroid hormone is produced in a lesser quantity.
5. Dry Skin
If you notice unexplained dry skin, it could mean that you are suffering from hyperthyroidism, a hormonal condition.
6. Yeast Infection
If you are extremely prone to yeast infection, it could mean that your insulin hormones are not in balance.
7. Constant Urination
Signs of hormonal imbalance can be the urge to urinate constantly due to the imbalance of the insulin hormone.
8. Bleeding Gums
Symptoms of hormonal imbalance include bleeding gums that happens due to the increase in the progesterone level.
9. Swollen Feet
Again, if you have an increased production of progesterone in your body, you may notice swollen feet.
10. Metallic Taste
If you are experiencing a metallic taste in your mouth, it could be due to higher levels of HcG hormone that is secreted in the body during pregnancy.
11. Dark Spots
Signs of hormonal imbalance can be dark spots on the skin that may occur due to the increase in oestrogen hormone level.

The Minister of Commerce and Industry, Mr Charles Ugwu, has in Abuja predicted that demand for cement in the country will rise to about 17Mt in 2008.
"Unfortunately, as at today, only about 4Mt are produced, though production will push up to about 7Mt with the new capacity being built.
Ugwu, who gave these figures at a meeting with stakeholders in the industry said: "Yet a deficit of about 10Mt is recorded".
He said government would allocate the shortfalls to investors in the downstream sector to import.
"Blending of the cheap imported product with the locally manufactured products will allow Nigerians to enjoy better prices, " he said.
He said the meeting was a working session where every stakeholder had an opportunity to explain specific problems of the sector to address both supply and price situations.
"I have read the files and heard the situation in the industry, the president has called me and said the situation must change within a short time," Ugwu said.
The Minister said government was aware of the agony faced over road transportation and other logistics, adding that the president was committed to seeing major improvement in the provision of vital infrastructure.
"But the president has expressed a great deal of anxiety that in every commodity where government has intervened to support local manufacturers, things have always been worse, rather than getting better." Published under Cement News

Stone in the Cold
By Caleb Smith
Through darkness I come with a stealthy hand, who but a man shadowed could be so bold? My eyes hunt take a reckoning of the land, look into the hollows, constant and cold.
My companion solitude, still as stone, I am the seeker of winds, and of scent. By the trees yonder, I wait not alone; my aim is true, and my purpose unbent.
Yet, death does not bring a smile to my lips, nor a lift unto this wayfaring heart; in grief I am fed, from silence I sip, and from the old wood, I shall never part.
The hunt will remain for those who pursue, a life that no death could ever undo.
#2 selection C. H.
A life that no death could ever undo, for there are portals I've yet to find. Hidden life in the green I wish to pursue, oh, the secrets of life and death entwine.
I search and search, I will know no defeat. Each corner turned will find new paths to tread. The deer or the bear, the fox that I meet will reveal the secrets of life not death.
So, let the wood talk, hear what it reveals. Riddle its meanings there to be understood. The less armor worn, we brandish or wield, higher truth follows our message of good.
Come into the woods as in days of youth, we still face the test of absolute truth.
#3 of 3 J. G.
We still face the test of absolute truth, the nights coming fast, I travel unheard. The reverence I feel, was born in youth, tempered by sage, burnt offerings for birds.
Tormented by brambles whose thorns I collect I come to remains of struggles long gone, feathers and crushed bone, on these I reflect. I'm hoping once more, my arms are still strong.
A pine marten scurries, close to my step, the sweet scent of birch gum, his claws unearth. My arrow's still sheathed, for creeks I have leapt. I have grown cold, but my spirit rebirthed.
Tracks at the creek, the water I savor the brush slight moves, my aim does not waver.
The brush moves, my aim does not waiver.Foraging there, on the rim of the pondA sounder of wild boar brings a shiverAnd the grunts and the squeals that I have spawned. From the thicket a sow charges and bites;Bleeding, I climb to the limb of a tree,As razorback frenzy welcomes the night -Now, I am prey and pray to be free; That the morning light will find the beasts gone,Or that others not find the scent of my blood,Or that tied to this tree, will I last long -Will infection and pain rush in a flood.
Or, like a wounded deer in the thicketWill I die and be eaten within it... my suggestions & eincorporating both Dee's and Joyce's adviceThe brush moves, my aim does not waver,a sounder of boar feeds right near the pond,so many there, it brings on a shiver;the gruntings and squealings that I have spawned.
From the thicket a sow charges, then bites;bleeding, I climb to the limb of a tree, as razorback frenzy slashes the night.I am the prey, and I pray I'll be freed.
God, let morning light find ev'ry beast gonepray no more come to the scent of my blood,the gash is so deep, will I last that long?Tied to the tree the pain flows like a flood.
My mind goes to the deer bones in the thorns.The night is very dark, pray for the dawn.
Isaiah #4
The brush moves, my aim [must never]* waver;With strengthened arms I bend my bow of yew:My eyes pierce the brush, intent to savorthe sights of a good hunt, an arrow true.The bracken parts, rattling, empty sighs;My draw fingers quake from the constant chill.My quarries' breath floats to the clouded sky,My own breath muffled as I track my kill.Overhead, an arrow in deadly arcspeeds toward the bear I'm seeking, still as stone;A shadow moves, the arrow strikes its mark.The hand that loosed the shaft was not my own.I am a man shadowed; death comes knocking:The hunter hunted; the past comes stalking.
#4 MarkThe brush moves, my aim does not waver, then cacophonous noise and flutter of wing— suspense of time, wild moment to savor, destiny's urge theirs, ever pining for spring. The beat of the moment has suddenly faded, my nostrils aware of the keenness of snow. Unprepared and alone, my hubris vacated, ill to compare with the wolf and the crow. I shiver alone in the deepening cold, cringing and stiff, as the blizzard advances Though I'd thought of myself as manly and bold, I confess poems/sad'>sadly now that grim are my chances. How long must I struggle, awash in chagrin, Stricken in heart over what might have been.
suggest to simplify language & clarify for MarkNow the brush moves, my aim does not waver.A rush of bird sounds the flutter of wingstimes seems to stop, a moment to savorunaimed I lose, they flee pining for spring.
The beat of the moment has suddenly faded,my nostrils flare with the keenness of snow.What foolish pride to come, alone, unaided unprepared for cold like the wolf and crow.
I shiver alone in the deepening cold, cringing and stiff, as the blizzard advances; though I'd thought of myself as manly and bold, I confess sadly, that grim are my chances.
How long must I struggle, awash in chagrin, Stricken in heart over what might have been.

Traffic was heavy in Ortigas area after a van, a delivery truck, an oil truck, and a trailer truck collided at the corner of Lanuza Street and Ortigas Avenue. The driver of the delivery truck, his passenger, and the driver of the van were injured in the collision. All of them were rushed to hospital. Another person was reported injured. In Quezon City, four trucks were involved in an accident along C-5 Road's Libis-bound lane. A certain Magno Tuldog and Gerry Pantoja were injured after a trailer truck rammed three other trucks on the dedicated lane for trucks along C-5, near the Ortigas flyover.

What dreams would you love to bring to life?...
Imagine if in 2018 you went from being someone who has dreams to someone who lives their dreams.
Imagine if your life was set up so that it was filled with the things that you love: the activities, the daily habits, the people, the places and the experiences that make you feel alive, happy and fulfilled.
Imagine if in 2018 you had a vision for your life that truly excited you and a plan of how to bring that vision to life...
What would you put into that plan?
Travel more, change career, do a photography course, go on a yoga retreat, have more fun...?
Well whatever it is you want to do in 2018, let's make it happen!
Join us for our brand new 4 week online course that will have you creating a vision and a plan for 2017 that will make it your best year yet!
Design a Life you Love
Will be back in Jan 2018
Whether you're looking to make a change in your life in 2018, wanting to make a dream or idea happen or if you simply want to make 2018 a year where you make it less about work and more about YOU, then join us!
Over the course of 4 weeks, you will...
- Get clear on the key ingredients you need to be happy and fulfilled in life, work and relationships
- Create a vision and a picture of what you want your life to look like in 2018 and beyond
- Design a practical plan that will bring that vision to life
- Learn the best life design tools and techniques that will help you make sure that plan happens
- Clear the blocks that get in the way of you living life the way you really want to
- Get inspired and share your journey with a whole tribe of other life designers making their own dreams and ideas happen
How it works...
We know you'll be busy as the year kicks off and so we've kept this course simple and manageable. The 3 key ingredients are:
1. Design a Life You Love live online workshops with Selina & Vicki: every Tuesday night 7-8pm GMT (they will also be recorded)
2. A weekly Design a Life You Love assignment
3. Your Design a Life You Love private online community
Design a life you love workshops every Tuesday (ONLINE)
Every Tuesday at 7pm GMT we'll all gather online for an hour long workshop. Each of the four workshops build on the next, taking you through a journey that will first have you getting clear on what you want your life to look like and then creating a plan and a bespoke toolkit to help you to bring that plan to life!
We recommend that you attend the workshops live, but if you can't make it then you'll be able to watch the recording.
Design a life you love weekly reflection & activity
Each week you will be given a reflection and an action assignment, with each weekly assignment building on the last so that by the end you will be clear on what you want your life to look like in 2017 and you'll go away with a clear plan on how you're going to create that life for yourself.
Design a life you love private online community
When you join the course you get access to our private facebook group - the Life Designers - where you can hang out with like-minded women, share your progress and ask for help when you need it.
Selina and Vicki will be popping into the group on a regular basis to join in the conversations and offer guidance along the way.
Your coaches
Selina and Vicki have been designing their own lives for years - creating careers that they love, cultivating loving relationships and designing lifestyles in which they can flourish.
Over the past 10 years Selina has been making it her business to understand what people need to feel happy and fulfilled in life and has helped thousands of people during that time to create lives, careers and relationships that they love, through online courses, workshops, retreats and 121 coaching.
In Design a Life you Love she'll be taking you through the life design process that she uses with her private clients (and on her own life) to help them create lives and careers that they love.
Meanwhile Vicki, an NLP & EFT practitioner, will make sure that as you create a vision for your year ahead that you do it grounded in a space of love and make sure that a smart heart and connected heart is leading the way and not a confused and exhausted ego. She'll also teach you the art of EFT (tapping) to help you to clear the blocks that will naturally come up as you start to listen in to your dreams and dare to make those dreams a reality.
What if I miss one of the 4 live workshops?
It's fine, we record all of them, so you won't miss any
Do I have to be in London to do the course?
Nope, you can do it from anywhere in the world
I've done the 'Goodbye 2016, Hello 2017' workbook - is this the same?
Goodbye 2016, Hello 2017 is a great life design tool to set you up for the new year, but Design A Life you Love goes a lot deeper and will make sure that you are creating a vision from the heart and not from the ego ;)
I'm busy! How much time do I need to put aside each week to do this course?
This course is designed for busy ladies. You can do it in 20 mins blocks a day or a couple of hours in one go in the week. And then you can spend as much or as little time as you want hanging out with us and the other Life Designers in our private facebook group (that one can get a little addictive, so watch out!)
What happens when the 4 weeks is up - will I still have access to the live recordings if I want to recap?
Yes, you'll be able to view the workshop recordings and access all the worksheets for a year. However the LIfe Designers facebook group will close once the course is over

Just when you thought this franchise was obsolete a new animated pitch has appeared online from filmmakers Bruce Stirling John Knox called Extermination that gives us the future wars we're all wanting to see.
I liked how it also shows mankind turning on one another which is an aspect that hasn't been explored in the Terminatorverse as yet.
It looks dark and has the sense of impending doom that the first few movies had so maybe this could be the 3rd terminator movie we've all been waiting for.
This is just a pitch at this stage but if it gets made I would watch it for sure.

if the story about the defensive players saying he's terrible isn't true ... if the anonymous source is not revealed then i agree. If its NOT true at all that a defensive player didn't say this ... i can't blame him. They're saying the defense held a meeting and was willing to protect the anonymous source and clear it up and try to downplay the situation of his words ... and supposedly everybody was saying they didn't say anything even with no ramifications. If this is true ... then i'm all for it.
Circling the wagons
A perfect anti-SOJF psychology
Of course they'd never get that
Hearing from another player that Bart Scott's "media boycott" was just a joke that didn't go over. #Jets"
Conor Orr @ConorTOrr
So Bart Scott kinda declared a media mutiny + said all players who talked were "compromised." Heard him say he was joking later, tho. #nyj
Conor Orr @ConorTOrr
Wilkerson, normally very quiet yelled while Bart was yelling: "Bart GOT CAUGHT BY MULLY AND WILL DEFINITELY BE HARASSED..." #jets #nyj
I saw his interview with SNY, seemed to be enjoying it. I think it might be true that his was a joke gone bad.

Jordan King Abdullah's uncle by marriage, Walid Al-Kurdi, was sentenced to 37 years of labour following charges of corruption on Wednesday.
The Jordanian court said Al-Kurdi illegally profited [2] by using his position as CEO of Jordan Phosphate Mines Company (JPMC). [3] He was charged with exploiting office and breaching economic criminal laws, according to the Jordan News Agency, Petra. Soon after he was charged, the courts froze Kurdi's movable and immovable assets.
The courts also found Al-Kurdi guilty of three counts of shipping fraud.
Al-Kurdi has been fined approximately JD284 million ($400 million).
Al-Kurdi, who is married to the King's aunt, was indicted on New Year's Eve of last year.
JPMC was founded in 1949 and is based in Amman. It has three mining facilities and is listed on the Amman Stock Exchange (JOPH).
The company's 52-week-range [4] has a high of about 14JD to its current low of about 9.80JD. The company was originally government owned and was later privatized.
Al-Kurdi is believed to have fled Jordan for Britain shortly after being charged last year.
Judges Saeed Al-Louzy and Naser Al-Halalmeh oversaw the trial.

Could Patent Reform Hurt Cleantech?
(Page 2 of 2)
In Sapphire Energy's case it started with asking a set of fundamental questions, "Can we make a carbon-neutral fuel domestically, using no agricultural land and non-potable water, that is compatible with the existing distribution and refining infrastructure, at $60 a barrel, at a scale of 1 million barrels per day."
Without significant venture capital investment of $100,000 to $150 million, these promising technologies that underpin the future of our country and our world will not be developed. Only after these seed and early stage investments have demonstrated the viability of an idea can they attract even larger corporate partner commitments, which can range from $200 million to billions of dollars.
The reality of cleantech today is that small companies must negotiate with large companies for capital to survive, especially in constrained financial markets. In order to get the corporate deals, the negotiations rest solely on the proprietary strength of the patent applications and patents. Substantial changes in the way we approach damages in these pioneering cases, are likely to inadvertently but fundamentally change the business dynamic. Essentially, it will increase the original business risk so that the first investment does not take place. In addition, large companies may take advantage of the increased power that apportionment of damages gives them, even if apportionment was meant to solve an entirely different problem. They may wait to invest, and these technologies may never get to scale and ultimately benefit the public.
The type of seed venture capital and pioneering work we do is already a tentative business, and small perturbations in the system can have large effect in investment, innovation, and U.S. competitive advantage. Successful economic development of important new ideas requires a constructive partnership relationship between the small, nimble, wildcatter venture-based start-ups and the large, capital-rich corporate partners, which move more slowly if at all. Like many effects of policy, the business reality will take effect immediately in the game theory of the negotiation, 10 years before the first litigation and damages. In the meantime, the uncertainty and tilt toward lower innovation and entrenched market leaders, will serve to quash the breakthrough innovations and solutions we need to solve the pressing problems we face.
We must ensure that cleantech innovation is enhanced, not suppressed, by patent reform and that all sides are heard so we craft the best possible legislation to solve the problems of the tech industry while not harming cleantech.
We must address the problems that the technology industry has raised. It is unacceptable that patenting the font for the letter "O" should stop an operating system. We should make sure that the patenting of immaterial inventions does not hurt our technology companies. Yet we should make sure to solve the problems they face, and not risk inflicting collateral damage on the worker bees of our economy. The creation of a "gate keeping" standard, which lets the court apportion damages when there is an apparently frivolous case, solves the very problem that has been raised without creating a huge new risk.
Apportionment of damages without some standard of materiality could be devastating to clean-tech and other innovations. The inadvertent harm to the most competitive and important industries we are creating could be real and fast, ceding strength to foreign competitors.
In United States history there has always been the inclination to support the individual, to protect the weak from the strong, to make the assumption that someone who has a new idea should be heard. I urge the Committee to consider this history and think of the real example of carbon neutral oil – a case that is playing out as we speak. Your actions on patent reform and damages will have real effects on the survival of cleantech and other innovative industries in their tentative relationships with the goliaths of the energy world this year and next, well before the first case is decided. We all have a stake in that outcome.
