just wanted to tell you what happened to me today. My nephew is turning 6 on 9th March and I had to tell him i would not be here for his birthday due to work. He lost it and cried and slammed his bedroom door and would not speak to me. I cried and then his Mum cried and then his mum's friend cried.It was a chain reaction of tears. I thought I was doing the right thing telling him. Obviously not as he is too young to understand but I thought I should tell him before he wonders where I am on his birthday. I asked him to write a birthday list and he wouldn't. He said he does not want anything from me. I said, "Just because Aunty won't be here on the day does not mean I will not get you presents or have a party with you".Gawd help me. I had a small taste of what is gonna happen when I have to leave my own child for work trips. I don't think I can do it given today's episode.

Hi all! Sorry about the delay in a response, it has been a bit of a whirlwind!
April: GREAT news that you get to start up so soon!
Summer: Sorry that you are feeling low... It is hard but you are moving towards and answer one way or the other, you could waste that money on heaps of cycles. I hope that the time goes really quickly for you
Jamison: I don't even know what to say about the tear fest. I think you did the right thing by letting him know upfront despite how hard it was to do and how many tears were shed.
Lovabug: Thanks for asking....
DP did REALLY well and no OHSS this time, we are both SOOOO relieved!!! 10 eggs which was a great haul as well with less than half the side effects and more than half of the eggs retrieved.
6 fertilised... although i didn't find out until Monday as between an iphone with a faulty battery and running around for the business while DP was resting. I MISSED THE CALLS !!! all three of them OOPS and i was in so much trouble with DP as she wanted to know and they only called her when they left. As she is the 'donor' the lab wont call her.
We got a call yesterday first thing in the morning saying that they wanted to transfer day 3 and i had to be in at the clinic in three hours - so much for work! And we had two very healthy day 3 growing embies transferred. I have been a little disappointed about them not being blasty's but seeing them on the screen was such a relief.
Even though they made us come in early as they didn't think the others were going to progress they froze two of the others at day 3?
We asked about it and apparently the two standout were likely going to make it to blasty anyway and i would cultivate them better than they could in the lab so they made the decision to put them in. I'm not even going to bother trying to work it out.
So now... we sit and wait and hope and cross EVERYTHING that one of those little standout embies sticks!!!!
PS I missed the article so i have no idea what that line of talk was all about ???

Jamison - Thanks for your comment it's nice to be around people that understand. Are you going to do the genetic testing or still deciding? I think you did the right thing with your nephew by telling him upfront although it's hard when they cry. Kids are pretty resilient but I guess it gave you a taste of things to come.
April - That's great that you can start your cycle sooner. I will have my that you get a big haul. I read that if they get through CGH testing they have a pretty good chance so hopefully the extra expense will pay off. But yeah I was surprised at how expensive it is and that you don't get anything back from Medicare.
Green - That's great that it all went so well and your DP didn't get OHSS. Sending you lots of good vibes that you have a sticky

Ok have been really slack about keeping up lately so this may be a little long...
Green Mum - awesome fert numbers, woo hoo! How is DP going?
Summershine - that's so disappointing, I know how you feel as really in hindsight none of our other cycles had much of a chance, but I try to look at the positive that through those cycles we finally worked out what the issue was. Sorry this cycle didn't work, hopefully you'll have a good result from your frostie.
Btw if I had heard a doctor say that I would have been tempted to say, well I would have been that age (or closer to it) if I didn't spend years going to an FS who refused to change protocols. Seriously how rude and offensive!
Marzi - thanks for your thoughts for my furbaby
Rice - how did the eggs go, did you have a transfer?
Loveabug - hope you're feeling better
Jamison and April - completely agree, don't act like it's a massive struggle when a year isn't long and she only had one cycle. I think it's because there are so few ivf stories out there (in the media) so by comparison that was dramatic.
Jamison - sorry about the dramas with your nephew kids get upset quickly but I think tend to get past things faster too so hopefully that's the case here.
There are a few looking at CGH, good luck to you all!

Hi ladiesHave also been a bit slack latel
Summer - Is cgh the same as pgd? If so, totally understand where ur at. After 15 good quality embies with no baby we had to find out if it would ever be possible. We're happy we did it - our hope & determination has been restored now we know we can produce 'normal' embies & if the answer was the other way I think we'd be glad to know so we could stop wasting our time (and cash) and start on a new path
Love - Tomorrow is the start of your lucky FET month
Jamison - I read it & it really annoyed me. A close friend just got preg first round of ivf & now I feel like she'll be wondering what all my complaining is about since it's so easy
April78 - how's it going?? When u scheduled for EPU
Green - congrats on being PUPOx2
Haydos - how r u??
AFM - 12 of our 14 eggs were mature & we had 100% fertilization There were 10 embies available for Pgd testing & we had 4 pass - had one morula transferred on Sat & 3 popped in the freezer....just playing the dreaded waiting game now

Rice - wow 100% fertilisation that's fantastic! Congratulations on being pupo.
I'm good thanks guys, had my NT scan last week and all is going well. Just waiting for a contract renewal at work then we can start telling people (hopefully they wouldn't discriminate but you never know).

Rice - CGH is one type of PGD. There's a run-down of it on page 48 of this thread.
Other PGD types include karyotyping, and looking for a known DNA mutation by FISH or PCR.

Dordogne, France: Gastronomy and Luxury Lodging
A stay at Chateau La Thuiliere is a tasty, sumptous treat
By Max Hartshorne
GoNOMAD Editor
Imagine you have these two uncles. They've always been the cool ones in the family, the ones who sneak you away for fun and frolic, always with a mischevious look in their eyes.
Now you find out that they own this fabulous small hotel, in one of the world's most gorgeous places–southwestern France! Wow, how quickly could you get yourself packed to go visit them?
You may not have such uncles in your family, but many people in England and across Europe have discovered Chateau La Thuiliere, a nineteeth century restored mansion set in the small town of Saint Front de Pradoux, in the beautiful Dordogne region. The chateau was built in 1889 by a local man as a gift to his wife. Ten years after it was finished, he passed away, and sadly, she lived in seclusion here, barely ever leaving just a few rooms on the first floor. Then it was closed up for 40 years.
Since then, the pair of Eduoard Diaz Barragan and Jordi Bernal Campmany have worked nearly nonstop to transform La Thuiliere's very old bones into a modern and comfortable nine-room boutique hotel. New electrical, very new plumbing fixtures (it helped that Eduoard was a director of a company in Spain that made such items!) and lots and lots of love have made this a four star property.
A trip to La Thuiliere is most of all, an exercise in relaxation, but the gastronomy of this part of France plays a significant part of any visit. That's because the food is a highlight and Jordi and his chef source as much of the menu locally as possible.
In this part of France, there are no big towns very close by, so you can plan on dining right here at the chateau. They have tables outside for a lovely al fresco setting, or some times they serve dinner inside, in the large formal dining room. It's fun dining table d'hote, to see who you get to sit next to. After the initial break-in, (and a few sips of wine), the converstion begins to flow.
Most of La Thuiliere's guests come from England and Spain and other European countries, not that many from France. All of the staff is Spanish, we learned that in this part of France, native employees haven't worked out that well.
Breakfast is served in the kitchen, again, table d'hote, at a common table. For some guests, this isn't ideal, (some grumbling noted on TripAdvisor) but to me, like having dinner with other guest it adds to the fun and gives a great opportunity to get to know people.It's also fun watching Jordi and the cook prepare dinner in their beautiful kitchen, which is set up for cooking lessons, another offering here.
Inside the old building, the owners have selected the highest quality bath fixtures and other pleasing amenities. One is the Nespresso coffee maker in every room, which is a great pick me up on a lazy afternoon. Naps are hard to resist on these incredibly soft sheets, made in Portugal by Sam Pedro.
Gastronomy of the Region
Our interest in visiting the chateau was not only to experience staying there, but to take in the sites of the local gastronomy, since this region of France is so well known for its farms and farm products. Jordi arranged for us to visit several local producers who took plenty of time to show us around and describe everything they make.
First, a farmer came to visit the chateau to drop off a large foie gras, which he would prepare in salt. He simply deveined the duck liver and then placed it in a terrine and covered it with rock salt. This would cook the fois gras for the next 24 hours, and it would emerge, smaller and ready to eat.
"Can we visit your farm?" I asked the farmer, Benoit Escurpeyrat, and he happily agreed to take us there. We wound through the luscious farmland and stopped briefly at a fish farm, where a trade was to take place…foie gras for trout. Sounds good to me!
We reached Benoit's farm and the first thing we saw were his brown cows, with his prize bull lazily lying in the pasture. He said he sells every kilo of this mostly grass-fed beef as soon as it's ready, and it's hard to keep up with the tremendous demand.
Three Generations of Farmers
He's the third generation of his family that has run this farm, but he's sad to say that his sons haven't taken any interest…so he may be the last. They raise 2500 ducks a year, producing fresh magret du canard (duck breast) as well as foie gras and all manner of confits, mousses and other duck products.
They sell them at the nearby markets in Mussidan, Ambares-et-Lagrave, and Ste Foy La Grande. Benoit told us about the ducks, who sat in metal cages and had been there for 10 of the 20 of their last days when they would be force-fed a mixture of corn, oil and water. We grimaced, as most people would, when we watched him grab their long necks and put the funnel deep down their throats. But surprisingly, the ducks didn't squirm or protest the feeding, but seemed to accept it, just as Benoit does. Like sausage, perhaps it is best not to be too close to the production of a delicacy as sublime as foie gras!
Distilling Since 1834
Our next stop was to meet a man who has been distilling his whole life, in the center of the village of Villamblard en Perigord. Since 1834, Clovis Reymond has taken the fruits of this region and turned them into liqueurs and distilled spirits in hundreds of different varieties.
Nicholas Fourcoubey is the man in charge these days, the 17th generation of family involved in the complicated process of running a small scale distillery. Looking around the showroom, the multicolored bottles in all sizes, I asked Nicholas which was his personal favorite. "The pear brandy," he said.
In the adjacent distillery, he showed us the series of copper vats that take the raw fruits and after a series of complex processes, distill it down to its most essential remains. Once the place exploded, he said, so some of the tanks are newer. Some went back to the original founders in the 1830s!
Next we'd visit a woman who produces some of Clovis Raymond's source material…fraises. We visited the modest home of Marie Paule Chasseigne, who is an expert on the topic of strawberries.
Three Varieties of Fraises
Madame Chasseigne's mother was also a lover of fraises, and today she grows three varieties of the fruits in a plot of land in an adjacent lot next to her house. She had set before us in her house three trays–one with the tiny gariguette variety, which are only grown and eaten in the spring. Next to these were charlotte, sweeter and plumper and finally, mara des bois, even bigger but not as sweet as charlottes.
Marie Paule told us that there are hundreds of species of strawberries and that this year has been a tough one. There's a varmint with a strange name who looks like a badger who has been eating her berries.
But the worst varmint of all are the neighbors, who last year parked their car and stole 30 of her plants. This year, thieves have stolen 100 of her mature strawberry plants. Mon dieu! Each of her long rows of strawberries are irrigated using a drip system that doesn't waste any water. A good thing since this year France has suffered a terrible drought and there would be problems with a traditional type of irrigation system. She sells most of her berries at the local markets. We said good bye and were offered baskets of berries to take with us. How could we say no?
A Goat Cheese Farmer
It was time to visit the market in Vanxains, where we would meet another woman who produces delicous foods from the earth. But this market turned out to be a brocage,a sort of flea market and we confused mother with daughter.
To meet Magalie Berry, we had to drive another 12 kilometers to Sainte Vincent de Connezac, where she sells her goat cheese at a stand beside a small delicatessen and bakery. It's a prefect fit…they sell the bread, she's got the delectable toppings.
Berry said she used to be a journalist, working in the city of Tours, but she wanted more. She wanted more meaning in her life, she said, so she moved back home to her parent's house and borrowed the money to buy 150 goats. Now she sells many varieties of cheese at markets and works many hours.
She bristles when French customers complain about the price. "I got up at 3 am and won't stop working until 7 pm! Do they know how much work it takes to make this cheese?" Compared to the price of goat cheese in Massachusetts, paying 2.50 euros for a block here is a great deal, I told her. She sighed.
Quit Your Job?
At her stand, she let us sample her delicious fresh goat cheese and the varieties which were aged 20 days, or 3 months, while her daughter slept in a stroller next to us. "The French think that if you quit your job, it's a big problem.
They also look at you if you sell cheese and are a farmer, as if you're poor and have no other choice and they pity you because you are stupid. This IS a choice, I want to bring my daughters to the market, I am content and happy making this cheese, even though it's a lot of work!"
The good thing about living as as farmer, she said, is that you get milk, and cheese, and many other things for free. Despite the long hours and complaints, it was clear she had made the right decision to ditch journalism and return to the family farm.
Back to the Hotel
During my stay in July 2011, I got a chance to speak with several of the guests, who told me what had attracted them to this hard to find spot in the French countryside. All had done internet searches for "sexy and special places,"and "boutique hotels" and were very pleased with the meals and ambience of La Thuiliere. One British couple had moved to France nine years ago, and at the table, another British couple listened intently, as they want to do the same after they retire.
At the table d'hote, on a Saturday night, there were a couple from Japan, a young couple from Toulouse taking their first weekend away from a new baby, the British expats, and a near retirement couple from London who I chatted up about life as a police officer in London these days. And me. The dinner courses were elegant, and worthy of a Michelin starred chef. After my half bottle of wine ran out, my new friends were happy to share some of theirs with me.
It was about as good as it gets, right there in the big dining room of Chateaux La Thuiliere. I couldn't think of any place I would have rather been.

Wednesday Afternoon Dinar Chatter
Society: :Frank E. Frank E Do you expect Khozai to return to Baghdad over the weekend??. And then return to NY for the last two days of UNSC????
In light of Iraq/Kuwaiti articles today, do you see any further formal action of the UNSC related to VII, or is it all behind the scenes now..
Based on those articles in conjunction with the articles a couple weeks ago, do you think Iraq wrote the 10bil check today??
Frank26: No......... to stay in NY.
The UNSC is shamed because they gave and trusted Iraq with the RV and the power to exit CH7 and walk into international CH6......... But the GOI took their time. So behind the scenes ........ They took all away as they re-earn it!
No check today......... IMO post RV.
KTFA, Frank
Read More Link on Right
Society : Thanks.....You may have I-Team closely monitor Khozai's movements.....There was an article yesterday suggesting Parliament is waiting for the VP to return from NY.....I see Parliament is meeting Thursday, Saturday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.....taking Eid break on the 7th....
Also, Turki is in a meeting through Friday the 27th out of country.....I would think he will be in country at the time of ri/rv....Thanks again......
Frank26: NY is doing things WITHOUT the trouble makers.
No one wants nor will talk to M at NY.
NO ONE wants to talk to his mirror image.........O.
The Prez of Iran wants peace with USA but yesterday he told O in NY .......... I do NOT want to TALK to u nor SHAKE your hand!!!
NY will bring new air to our investment.
KTFA, Frank
212 : Frank,Yesterday a local morning news show out of New Orleans had a gentleman on speaking about investments. One of the questions that came up was about the Iraqi Dinar! Although his response was that it was an "internet scam", I was caught off guard, because I can't remember when (if ever) I remember hearing it talked about on a local news show! He said it was a scam because although the dinar may have some value one day, it's not the one people are able to order online. I found the link for the interview on the station's website and can send you the link if you want. Won't post it here without your permission.
Frank26: He is ignorant.

Nesara blogSpot: John MacHaffie
[558626listner] tony said there are 3 signatures needed all along. before we have heard it is done. then we heard it is done done. when it was done it had been signed off by one of the three and that was being reported to sources. then when two of the 3 signed off it was done done and given to the sources
[558626listner] they were negotiating a lower rate and wanted a lower rate
[5503] 558626listner Did Tony Say DONE DONE DONE 3 X's today..?
[golferiam] 558626listner are you saying since Tony and your sources have said 3 Dones...the IMF has signed off?
[558626listner] they got it and yes tony yes tony said done done done today
[logos12] 5503 T - I usually get the best info in the evenings. People were at the banks and they are there today. This is our new word of the day: no longer "soon" or "imminent" but, based on everyplace we call and every discussion I've had this morning is "DONE, DONE & DONE."
[golferiam] 558626listner good, then we should see at any time...hope so anyway
[558626listner] ONEDOWN this is very important so let me explain
[papa] 558626listner so will get a lower rate now?
[558626listner] the rates being seen at the bank are the numbers that tony is hearing
[558626listner] but it is not the $25.91 being interpreted
[ONEDOWN] 558626listner so are those placeholder rates or codes?
[558626listner] the screens are showing 25.91 but that is based on a decimal placement
[558626listner] .2591 is the rate per cuversion per 1 dollar
[paladin] 558626listner . . so you are saying close to $ 4.00?
[ONEDOWN] 558626listner 2 years ago they were seeing 525 but i always felt it wasnt a rate but a swift code message or placeholder
[jdajva] buckwheat 55862listener says tony is wrong on rate.your thought please
[558626listner] 1 divided by .2591 is $3.86
[558626listner] this is the rate agreed to by the imf
[Yme] 558626 it has to be 0.0259
[buckwheat] jdajva I am sure there are other people who disagree with Tony, I however am not one of them :)
[558626listner] the rate was $4.25
[ONEDOWN] Mojo i will take whatever is REAL ... not hype or bunk
[558626listner] .2348
[ONEDOWN] Mojo what 558626listner is saying is actually logical ... but i can also see the higher rate as a form of a stimulus pkg
[golferiam] 558626listner is the same logic being applied to the VNN?
[ONEDOWN] 558626listner i am amazed you are not getting bashed to bits. I actually can see that you may be correct
[Shmash] 558256listner I have a hard time believing that with all Tonys contacts at all different levels saying the same thing, that they are all making that mathematical error on the rates...
[558626listner] i dont know anything other than what my sources were explaining and giving me. tony is correct in what he received on what is on the screens and the done done done i was just explainnig what my sources said
9/25/2013 03:12:14 pm
referring to the Tnt post talking about the rates I understood that their are two different rates IQD and IQN so it could be both right.

Anivia Build Guide by DrSuezz
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Anivia Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Here is the my build for anivia or what I like to call her Articuno. I'm gonna talk about the runes and masteries first.
Runes: 9 Greater Mark of Insight, 9 Greater seal of Replenishment, 9 Greater Glyph of Potency, and 3 Greater Quintessence of Potency.
The Masteries are going to look like 9-0-21. You are going to want to take one of those points in the neutral buff thing because it will make the blue buff stay on you a little longer.
Items: Want to start the game off by buying a sapphire crystal, health pot, and a mana pot. Right from the get go you are going to want to turn that sapphire crystal into a tear of the goddess. You want to build up your mana fast because she will start to chew through her mana when you get to lvl 6. Then after you get tear go ahead and get Sorcerer's shoes, then build up to rod, then deathcap, the archangels staff, then zhonyas hourglass (make sure to put that into your first item spot so you can use it) then after that you can go really anything with that last item, like void staff or Deathfire grasp if they have a bulky tank.
Summoner Spells
The summoner spells that i use with Anivia are Flash and Teleport. The reason i use flash is because it is a must with any ranged ap champion it can get you away from danger like that if you know how to use it correctly. Then the next summoner spell i take is teleport because i would be soloing mid most of the time cause she is an excellent mid champion, and the reason i use teleport is because it gets me back to my line faster then walking there and you can gank pretty well with it.
Some of the spells that would be alright with Anivia would be Ghost or maybe ignite, possibly clarity but if you have the runes and the right items then it would just be a waste of a spell.
Spells that i would never take: exhaust- you are not the tank to gtfo with this spell, rally-screw rally!, Smite- ya have you ever seen a jungle anivia... ya thats right NOOO! So that means don't even look at this spell.
Anivia is an exzcellent farmer, in my mind she is one of the best farmers! Her ult just chews through minions from the beginning, and what I like to do is combo the ult with sending flash frost through them to clear the minions faster for a faster lane push. So when a new minion wave pops up all you have to do is use your ult and send flash frost through and you are good.
Pros / Cons and Combo
Pros of anivia would be, she is an excellent farmer, she has alot of burst damage, she hits hard the whole game.
Cons of anivia would be, she is pretty squishy thats why i recommend rod of ages with her, she has a hard combo to get used to, and she doesnt have the longest range of a ranged ap champ.
Combo: The combo that you have to get good with is first you flash frost (make sure that it hits them and right after it hits them hit q again and it will stun them and do more damage), right after that go in an use Frostbite, this will do alot of damage because if they are chilled it does double the damage, then after that if you have ult, go ahead and use it then try to get the wall in front of them so they have to run around it and they will take alot of damage from your ult and by that time your frostbite or flash frost should be off cd.
Early Game/Mid Game/Late Game
Early game: so what you want to do is go ahead and take mid lane, and you are probably going to solo against another ranged ap or an ad carry (ashe, caitlyn). What you are going to want to do is start getting last hits on minions and try to land flash frost on the enemy champion, it will hit hard in the beginning, but just remember that it is pretty easy to dodge so don't get annoyed if you are not hitting as much as you wanted to. You will then get Frostbite and this is when you can start doing alot of damage to the enemy champion. Also remember that her passive is that she goes into an egg every 5 mins if she gets slain, so this allows you to be aggressive, but don't want to overextend. So you are going to just keep and try to harass the opponent. Once you get to lvl 6 then you are going to start farming pretty hard and your going to be pushing the lane pretty hard, but with that you also got to remember that you could get ganked easily from bot, top, or jungle so care!
Mid Game: Now you get to mid game you are going to want to grab blue as much as possible because it is SOOOO good when you have it! Her mana regens so quickly and you can basically have your ult on the whole time and it won't even go down which in my mind is pretty stinkin awesome! So what you are going to want to do is maybe put a ward up on blue so you can get it when it comes up, you can take it easily by yourself. By this time you will be chewing through minion waves and you can start ganking top or bot by going through river or you can teleport to bot or top and do it that way.
Late Game: Once you get to late game you will have alot of AP, you will have about 750 (I dont know why it says only 438 up there.) But you just got to make sure you stay back cause you are going to get focused down! And if they do that you will die fast. But what you are just going to do is try to get blue as much as possible, and just do as much damage as you can. Practice with placing your wall in perfect spots to try to single out some opponents that your team can jump on.
I would like for people to rate this build and comment on it. Thank you Summoners!

Cherry Springs State Park, Pennsylvania owes its name to the black cherry trees that grow profusely over its 82-acre area ringed by 262,000-acre Susquehannock State Forest, which adds to its awesome wilderness. The park retains its original character - as intact as it was two centuries back—remote and wild. It is one of the only eight International Dark Sky Parks in the world. Its pitch dark but clear night skies are a sanctuary both for the astronomers and lay stargazers, who visit it in large droves for exploring the numberless planets, galaxies, nebulae and other heavenly bodies that populate the skies. The park hosts some of the most awesome spots for stargazing on the East Coast. You have only to visit the park to watch the spectacular shadow of the galaxy, the Milky Way especially during the optimal night conditions.
Located in the Texas State and spread over an area of 801,163 acres (324,219 ha), Big Bend National Park receives its name from the bend in a river that surrounds it. The park has national importance and as such is a protected area in the country. The park was named as an International Dark-Sky Park by the International Darkness Association, which has certified it as one of the only ten places on the planet for dark-sky stargazing. It also contains some of the darkest measured skies in North America. It offers panoramic views of thousands of big and bright stars, planets and clear outline of the Milky Way band on certain nights. The park also attracts its share of astronomers and amateurs on moonless nights.
Natural Bridges National Monument, Utah was declared as a National Monument in 1908. As the name suggests, the park has naturally built bridges; prominent among them are "Kachina," "Owachomo" and "Sipapu" named in memory of the Native Americans who had once made it their home. The bridges are believed to have been cut by the change in flow of a river as it winded through the rocks. From the bridge, you can gain a fabulous view of thousands of stars, whose sheer brightness casts a shadow on the landscape. The park hosts some of the darkest patches in the skies in the country, which show up to 15,000 stars all through the night. Of particular mention is the glorious river of light created by the Milky Way, which rises especially over Owachomo Bridge.
Death Valley National Park, California has been certified as the third International Dark Sky Park in the U.S. National Park System because it is home to some of the darkest night skies in the country. The Park is spread over a massive area of 3.4 million acres, of which, 90% is designated as a wilderness area. It is, therefore, regarded as the crown jewel of star gazing. It is a must-visit place for those who wish to witness lunar-eclipses and meteor showers. The best time to visit the Park is November through April, when the weather is fine. However, the temperature can get uncomfortably hot in summer. According to Tyler Nordgren, Associate Professor of Physics at the University of Redlands (Calif.), this is the place where you "can look up and see the universe the way everyone could 100 years ago."
Also called Mauna a Wākea in Hawaiian culture, Mauna Kea is a dormant volcano on the island of Hawaii. A major part of the Mauna Key is submerged in the ocean so that it is 4,205 m (13,796 ft) above sea level, but its total altitude is actually more than 10,000 m (33,000 ft), if it is measured from its base in the ocean. What this means is that Mauna Key is much taller than Mt. Everest, regarded the highest peak in the world. The higher you go the clearer becomes the visibility of the sky mainly because the air is free from all atmospheric pollutants that impede the clear vision. Moreover, the summit is above the inversion layer which keeps the clouds below its location ensuring thereby that it is surrounded by dry and stable air-flow. Since Mauna Kea is situated far from the city lights, it is, free from light pollution, which means that you can observe even the smallest astronomical objects in the sky. Thirteen powerful telescopes funded by eleven countries have been set up at the summit which is accessible by road.

I apologize if this is a repost, didnt see one and noticed this morning that the Pioneer Avic Feeds app was updated. What's new over a year later you ask? Well support for the now year old iPhone 4 and iOS4, iAd supported, supports importing POI from photos in camera roll, and of course "minor bug fixes and optimizations".

As veterans return home, they face numerous obstacles as they transition back into civilian life. Operation Freedom Paws provides a safe and unique opportunity to help make the transition from military life to the civilian life a little easier. The very special therapeutic canine-human relationship helps folks get back out in their communities and begin to view their future with renewed hope.
We have followed OPF for years and last May we had the pleasure of meeting and working with the team at Operation Freedom Paws, we were so impressed with their operation and everyone we meet. Chocology is excited to announce that we've partnered with, Operation Freedom Paws, to give you an opportunity to help veterans and/or those with disabilities. For every Fat Ass Fudge order that you place using the code FREEDOMPAWS, Chocology will donate $1.00 ($2 for every order of $50 or more) to help a veteran get the dog s/he needs to empower them in moving forward in life. ChocologyUnlimited.com
I am a donor to Operation Freedom Paws. Their mission is a win-win for everyone: For the dogs they rescue and the clients whom they help, all are given a chance at a better life because of the work they do; some would say life-saving. Unlike other organizations who provide a service dog, the matched client-dog pair train together which is both a great educational experience and forges a strong bond between the dog and client as they work together as a team. This is a wonderful organization. I've followed them for years and can't say enough nice things about them.
As a community member, most of the organizations I support financially (and VERY selectively) are civil rights-oriented. Because of my experience with members of their staff and volunteers, I have made an exception for OFP. The professionalism and dedication of the staff and volunteers is amazing and the impact they are making to the lives of these special animals and OFP's human clients is life-changing and inspiring.
I am grateful that OFP is doing this important work and will continue to support them financially. I hope that you'll consider doing the same.
I am a disabled veteran with a service dog that did a little training at Operation Freedom Paws. Their program was very similar to the program where I obtained my service dog from, only bigger in scope. My dog and I had no problem blending in with the Operation Freedom Dog training routine. There were over two dozen dogs and handlers in training and the program went very smoothly. The only down size was just that size ... more space would sure be a benefit to a program that provides priceless support and encouragement to disabled veterans.
Previous Stories
I am a disabled veteran. I have vision, hearing, mobility, and balance issues as a result of my military service. The VA physical therapist indicated that I needed the cane for mobility, but using it was destroying my shoulder and there was nothing she could do to prevent that. I was very fortunate to obtain a service dog to replace the cane. Not only did the service dog ameliorate the slowly disintegrating shoulder, but the service dog learned to assist me with my blind and deaf left side and damaged cerebellum. In other words, the service dog helped restore a quality of like I lost 30 years ago as a result of my military service. This program is A+ and truly benefits America's veterans.

I loooove running!
Racing is fun too, as long as I don't overdo it. Here's a list of races that I participated in, beginning with my first 5k in 2010. I acknowledge that placing high in my age group (currently 25-29) often happens not because I'm a running genius, but because a) the race was small, and b) nobody faster than me showed up. Nevertheless, I'm always glad when this happens!

When most people hear the word witches, they think of horror films and Halloween, but to the nearly one million Americans who practice paganism today, it's a nature-worshipping, polytheistic, and very real religion. So Alex Mar discovers when she sets out to film a documentary and finds herself drawn deep into the world of present-day witchcraft. Witches of America follows Mar on her immersive five-year trip into the occult, charting modern paganism from its roots in 1950s England to its current American mecca in the San Francisco Bay Area. Along the way she takes part in dozens of rituals and becomes involved with a wild array of characters: a government employee who founds a California priesthood dedicated to a Celtic goddess of war; American disciples of Aleister Crowley whose elaborate ceremonies turn the Catholic mass on its head; second-wave feminist Wiccans who practice a radical separatist witchcraft; and a growing "mystery cult" whose initiates trace their rites back to a blind shaman in rural Oregon.

"[Mar takes] readers on an expertly crafted spiritual journey." (Publishers Weekly)
"Author Misses the Point!"
The author documents a personal journey to satisfy her yearning for an "authentic" occult experience. Her documentation is at times very entertaining but she is never really able to let go of her rational, analytical mind. If the author were writing a scholarly review then this would not be a problem, it would be entirely appropriate.
However, the author has written a very personal account not a scholarly, anthropological one. She is forever asking, "Is this real?" In the author's mind (as represented in the book) if magic and the occult is "real" then it is worth her pursuing it. Otherwise, she (and those pursuing it) are pathetically mislead. This is not something an anthropologist would concern themselves with. Nor is the author qualified to pursue the question of scientific proof.
No, the author is writing a personal account of someone yearning for a spiritual experience but unable to let go of her skepticism enough to truly let go. Repeatedly the author will come to the brink of a spiritual breakthrough only to step back before any personal transformation is possible. But she never seems to realize this for herself. It is that lack of self awareness that make the book so weak.
Her constantly asking "is this real?" seems so very childish. For people pursuing a spiritual path "real" can have many meanings but it seldom means real in the way a young child might believe that Santa is real. But for this author that is what "real" seems to mean. In other words, she is asking can magic as practiced by witches change the physical world in a way to make all skeptics into believers? To the author this is the ultimate test of whether or not the people practicing witchcraft are legitimate spiritual practitioners or misguided misfits. The problem with this is that for many (arguably most) spiritual practitioners this not an important question at all. Had the author ever realized this the book would have been much better.
The author seems very unaware of her own biases and limitations and how they effect her perceptions of the people she is writing about. If the author has taken an authentically anthropological approach she might have been able to avoid this.
Alternatively, has she been more aware of how her
The best parts of the book are the ones where she explores her own family. Perhaps because this is the most genuine part of the book.
The writing style is good. I have no fault with the writer's technique. But the book lacks depth for the reasons previously stated.
The reader of the book is excellent and really breathes life into the text.
There are some excellent critiques of this book out there right now. Many in the pagan community are offended by how the author exposes very personal details and feel she has behaved in an unethical manner. The author hasn't really addressed these accusations.
Another valid point made by critics is the fact that the author comes from a privileged segment of our culture and critiques her subjects from that position of privilege without ever really acknowledging her privileged position.
I came onto the app to find out how to return this book but I can't figure out how. I don't enjoy this book, from the description I anticipated a more fact based documentary but it comes off as more of a pre-teen book report. I'm so mad that this book is so bad because all the descriptions make it sound like it's going to be so cool. I would love to have experienced all that Alex has but not from her point of view. I couldn't finish the book, and I really tried. There are parts of the book that were interesting when she would talk about the facts of a certain group but as soon as she started talking about herself again I would tune out. I don't like all her opinions on everything it creates a negative attitude toward most of what she is witnessing and makes everything come off very childish. She turns something interesting into something "not for her" which is so obnoxious since she's writing the book she should probably be more interested in the subject. Now if literally anyone she met along the way had written this book then I would have enjoyed it. Someone who is serious about the topic and who believes in what they're writing about. This book is maybe for someone who is skeptical about witchcraft and wants to be proved right that its weird.. which is obviously not her target audience and not what I was looking for when I purchased it.
No I would not.
The reader is fine.
The main character
I was so disappointed in this book, I had such high expectations and I was really let down.
"Terrible Rag!"
A disservice to all real Witches who embrace the light. A voyeur's witch hunt.
"Great intro to American Witchcraft."
I wanted to find out how far Alex would go in the world of witchcraft. Good history of the American practice, in regions as well as covens.
"A Half-Witted Survey Into the Hippy Occult"
Perhaps it's that there isn't a lot of substance and not much rooted in genuine history (other than 1960s drug abuse), but the subjects of this study are quite boring, despite the author's desperate attempts to elevate them beyond their mundane counter-culturalism.
I have little desire to explore this topic further. If I wanted to know more about fringe "Wiccan" misfits, I would attend Burning Man.
The performance of the book is clean and engaging; without it, the book would be entirely intolerable.
The little devil on this sub-par author's shoulder can be heard--amid the din of this text--screaming to her to embrace this juvenile rustic communal lifestyle against which the better angels of her (insufficient) skepticism wimper their protests.
Do not read this unless you want to feel an abiding sense of pity that this author has wasted what seems to be an enormous portion of both her (and now my) fleeting time on Earth with these idiotic people that call themselves "witches." If you're looking for a seasonal Halloween read, find one of several books about Celtic mythology or the Salem Witch Trials that explore consequential historical episodes, as opposed to this (lavatory) rag that will give you more insight than you could ever hope for into the modern gothic--still as ridiculous as it was when Austen wrote Northanger Abbey, and even more despicable for its link to adolescent 60s indolence.

Bridport Promo Videos Launched Online!
8:23am 24th September 2013
A set of videos are being released to promote Bridport and are being published on YouTube.
Three films were filmed at events in the town including The Melpash Show, Bridport Food Festival, Bridport Open Studios, The Hat Festival and the Bridport Farmers Market.
It is called The Spirit of Bridport and the makers have tried to capture a sense of what the town is all about to show it off for visitors across the country.
They were made by a Dorset company called Watershed PR and money for the project partly came from the European Agricultural Fund for European Development 2007-2013: Europe Investing in Rural Areas.
Co-Chair of the Spirit of Bridport group was councillor Ros Kayes who says: "These wonderful films give a real sense of the spirit of the town that is one of the most enviable places to both live and visit. We wanted to inspire people and to support the economy of the town by promoting what's best about it."
The launch event for the films is at The Bull Hotel in East Street, Bridport at 5.30pm on Saturday 28 September.

Blur released a pair of brand new songs via Twitter this week, written especially for their 2012 Olympics Closing Ceremony performance at Hyde Park, marking their first new material since the 2010 Record Store Day single 'Fool's Day'. The first track is an aching, Bowie-esque ballad titled 'Under the Westway', while the second, 'The Puritan', is an exuberant sing-along that will induce warm Britpop nostalgia. Both songs were performed via live webcast (which you can watch below), and will be available for download on iTunes and as a limited edition double-A-side 7″ (released August 6). The group is obviously in fine form here, and no matter how hopeless it is, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Damon Albarn and Graham Coxon stay friendly long enough to record a long-overdue new album together this year and treat us to an international tour.
Listen to 'Under the Westway' and 'The Puritan' below (via Stereogum).

COSBOA welcomes the appointment by Minister Kelly O'Dwyer of Kate Carnell as Australia's first Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman.
Peter Strong, cialis sale CEO of COSBOA, patient said today "COSBOA has been calling for an Ombudsman for our sector since 1977 when our association was first formed by concerned small business supporters. No other group has called for such a position until more recent years so it seems that patience pays off. Kate Carnell is a great selection."
COSBOA knows from deep experience that some big businesses, check Wesfarmers in particular, has used their money, resources and political influence to stop any policy that may provide fairness for small business at the expense of their bullying business models. COSBOA also has bitter experience with ideological policy makers who see small businesses as unimportant in economic terms and show our sector scant respect. Finally COSBOA knows that government agencies still design tender processes and business communications to make their job easier rather than get the best business outcome for government. Hopefully all this can change.
Peter Strong added "for too long the likes of Treasury, Wesfarmers, big business associations and others who are supporting old ideologues or vested interest have ruled the roost. The recent decision by the Abbott government to shelve an effects test in competition law is a great example of one huge business, Wesfarmers, getting its way at the expense of the economy. With Kate Carnell in the new role we expect the internal bureaucratic fight, while never even, now will be more willing."
Peter Strong also added "areas that will definitely improve will be around communications and process for small business as well as for dispute resolution. Ms Carnell has the skills to stop many disputes happening or reaching a need for action. Ms Carnell has experience with politics as an ex Chief Minister of the ACT and has run and grown her own small business. She also has deep experience with COAG processes, mental health through her role as CEO of Beyond Blue as well as various industry associations. This is a great decision and only 39 years in the making."
"Also two more words are all that need to be said – "Bruce Billson".

In an unsurprising, but helpful, decision the European Court of Justice (ECJ) has confirmed the requirements for a taxable person established in one member state, receiving cross-border supplies of services, to have a "fixed establishment" in another member state.
The rules on the place of supply of services changed with effect from 1 January 2010. Although the focus shifted to the place of establishment of the recipient of the services, the ECJ has confirmed that decisions on the meaning of "establishment" that pre-date the change still stand.
In this particular case, the ECJ held that the Cypriot recipient company did not have an establishment in Poland with a sufficient degree of permanence nor a suitable structure in terms of human and technical resources to support the Polish authorities' position that the supply in question should attract Polish VAT.
The ECJ also held, whilst noting that this test was ultimately a question for the relevant domestic court to determine, that:
- the July 2011 Council Implementing Regulation, which introduced the test for a "fixed establishment", could be of relevance even though not in force at the time of the disputed supplies
- for VAT place of supply purposes it is necessary to view reciprocal supplies as distinct from each other (even if, together, they form an economic whole).

Zucchini can get watery if it sits too long in a dish like this so if you are just making a few hours ahead it will be fine. If making very early morning and cooking late in the evening you might want to shred the zucchini instead of slicing it- then salt a bit and let sit on paper towels (like you would eggplant) then squeeze some of the juice out before making your gratin.

Comdoll-bashing was the theme this week, with the Kiwi getting the worst of it. Another theme was demand for the lower yielders, especially the yen. So, what drove forex price action? Time to find out!
The U.S. Congress is hurtling toward some major tax, budget and other policy deadlines. Some are hard and some are flexible, with the end of 2017 approaching. Here is the Capitol Hill outlook for what promises to be a turbulent November-December.
If you're new to pressing trades and increasing your trading volume or just an adrenaline junkie who adds to trades for the thrill of it, then I have a three-step process that just might work for you.
Aaaand I'm in! Thanks to a pullback after a downside break, I was able to jump in on the dollar's selloff. What do you think of my setup?
Let's end this week's intraday charts update by checking up on our old setups on EUR/CHF and CAD/JPY. And as always, we'll be lookin' for fresh plays as well.
Guppy is back to its losing streak while USD/JPY managed to catch a few good wins. Here are the latest positions from this trading strategy.
I spy with my one good eye this upside triangle break on EUR/GBP! Will it make a pullback to the broken resistance or all the way down to the .8800 support?
Whattup, homies! Let's end the week strong with these short and long-term setups on EUR/USD and EUR/GBP. Think you can gain pips from these hot plays?
GBP/CHF has been in a strong uptrend since bottoming out back in the Summer, and the recent pullback may be an opportunity to play the trend & my long bias.
We'll be mixing it up in today's intraday charts update since we'll be checking up on our old setups on CAD/CHF, as well as a fresh channel on GBP/NZD.
Bitcoin, litecoin, and ethereum appear to be easing into their trends after last week's strong moves. Can we catch some retracements this time?
Currency cross playas huddle up! I spotted hot swing and long-term trend trades on EUR/JPY and GBP/CHF that you wouldn't want to miss. Check it!
For forex traders, the major sources of psychological pain tend to involve losing capital and/or being on the wrong side of trades. How can you deal with this?
Unfortunately for the second day in a row, there wasn't much action because of my trading rules. See how it all went down in today's Cowabunga Surf Report.
We'll be taking a stroll down memory today since we'll be checking up on our old setups on CAD/CHF and CAD/JPY. Of course, it goes without saying that we'll be lookin' for fresh plays as well.
It looks like the tide is turning for the pairs I'm watching on this forex strategy, but did the open positions manage to catch gains? Take a look!
The Aussie has been taking one punch after another, with downbeat Chinese data and disappointing wage figures. Is AUD/CAD in for a breakdown?

Jennifer writes,
Can cats stay in the house while I spray Precor 2000 Plus Premise Spray or do they need to be removed?
Could I put them in one room and then do that room after?
Your cats do not need to leave the house. You should do exactly as you suggested. Place the cats in another room while you are treating and wait 30 minutes for the Precor 2000 Plus Premise to dry. Once the product has dried, it is perfectly safe to allow the cats back into the room.

The Son That Former NFL Player Rae Carruth Tried To Kill Turns 18, Still Suffering From Permanent Brain Damage
The former wide receiver, who plotted the murder of his ex, Cherica Adams, is scheduled to be released from prison soon.
In a terrifying moment of panic, a nursing student in Alabama made a smart decision that could have been the difference between life and death. When Brittany Diggs, 25, was kidnapped by an armed robber and forced into the trunk of her car, she used the light on her insulin pump to escape and reach safety.
On Tuesday, Diggs was approached by a gunman outside of her apartment building and was forced to drive to ATMs in Birmingham to withdraw cash. When Diggs tried to explain that she was just a student and didn't have money, the robber forced her into the trunk while he drove to different ATMs.
After several failed attempts using her bank card, the robber said he would try one more time, and that he would kill her if it didn't work.
"The whole time he's driving, he's, like, just, he's yelling at me from the front seat, 'You're lying. I know you have something. Give me your money,'" Diggs told the Today Show.
While the man was in a gas station attempting to use her card, Diggs came up with the idea to use the light on her insulin pump to light the latch that will open the trunk from the inside.
"I just got the bright idea to use my insulin pump light, which is not a bright light, but it was bright enough to see," Diggs told Today. "So I had to put it right on top of it to look and see for the latch."
When the gunman returned, Diggs knew it was time to escape.
"I'm holding the latch like this, waiting for him to get back in the car. He gets in [and] he's yelling ... and I feel the car reversing, and he's pulling out pretty fast, so I'm, like, 'Oh shoot — I better get out of here.'"
When Diggs ran into the station, owner Yosef Al Sabah helped her hide while he phoned for help.
"As he was leaving, I saw the trunk popped up and a woman jumped out of the trunk and came inside the store. I let her inside a safe place and locked the door and called the police," said Sabah.
Police have not yet found the suspect. Although they found Diggs's car, she wants nothing to do with it because of the trauma she endured.
Now, friends of Diggs have launched a GoFundMe page to help her raise money to relocate.

Three-time champions Germany are ranked sixth in Fifa's world rankings heading into their Group D match in Durban and are strong favourites to kick off the tournament with a victory over the Socceroos.
The Australians have never beaten Germany in two meetings, losing 4-3 at the 2005 Confederations Cup and 3-0 to West Germany at the 1974 World Cup, with both games held in Germany.
Australia are looking to start their tough Group D campaign with a result against the Germans, and if that should be a draw, then that's fine by Neill.
"Yes, we would take it," Neill said. "A draw would be a fantastic result. Germany are a superior team to Australia. Clearly they are favourites and we have the underdogs tag."
Neill, the Galatasaray defender, readily admits that Germany are a fantastic tournament team having reached seven World Cup finals.
"Their record suggests they are the most consistent team in world football, and the pressure is on them to win," he said.
"Nobody in the world, apart from our team, expects us to beat them."
Neill feels it is important for Australia not to lose their opening game at South Africa 2010. "If we draw it means other results can go for us and against us and we've still got everything in our own hands" he said.
"If we manage to win, we will shock the world."
After facing Germany, Australia will take on Ghana in Rustenburg on June 19 and Serbia in Nelspruit four days later.

These two teams are very similar in scoring and points allowed, as well as rebounds and assists per game. This matchup should be a very tight game, as suggested by the line, but I am taking the home team.

A 37-year-old man has been issued with a Criminal Behaviour Order after complaints about his anti-social behaviour and street drinking in Slough.
Marcin Borkowski, of no fixed address, was issued with the order at Slough Magistrates' Court on Monday, April 10. It will last 12 months and a breach of that order could result in up to five years in prison.
Borkowski pleaded guilty to breaching a Community Protection Notice on Saturday, April 8.
That notice was issued in October 2016 due to Borkowski continuing to be found heavily intoxicated within the Farnham Road area, which is part of an alcohol exclusion zone. Complaints against him covered street drinking, noise, littering and urinating. Borkowski also breached the Community Protection Notice in November 2016.
The tougher new order bans him from getting drunk in the area around Farnham Road, Godolphin Playing Fields and Baylis Park. He is also required to attend arranged appointments to address his alcohol abuse and lack of housing.

On behalf of the Board of Directors and staff of Americans for UNFPA, I am proud to join the global community to commemorate International Women's Day. As we observe International Women's Day, let us remind our elected officials that a country's economic and political health can be measured in the health of its women.
This week activists from across the United States will join us in Washington D.C. to participate in our annual lobby day. Concurrently in New York, the UN and NGO communities are meeting to assess progress towards meeting essential health goals set forth 15 years ago at the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing and at the International Conference on Population and Development in Cairo. The Platform for Action, developed at these forums, affirmed the right of women to enjoy lives of dignity, equality, and health—including sexual and reproductive health.
15 years later, with only five years remaining to meet these targets, progress is lagging. Governments globally have not fulfilled their commitments to improving women's health. Between 1995 and 2004, donor assistance worldwide to international family planning dropped by almost $300 million.
It is with disappointment that I acknowledge that the United States contributed to this decline. From 2001-2008, the United States withheld funds from UNFPA. During this time, members of Congress allocated a total of $244 million to support UNFPA's life saving work, yet for political reasons these funds were not released by the administration.
Despite these setbacks, Americans for UNFPA continued to fight for U.S. funding for UNFPA. We rallied Americans to engage in political advocacy, to raise public awareness about the global needs of women, and to contribute what they could to support UNFPA's work.
Today, the Obama Administration, particularly Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, has signalled a commitment to improving the status of women globally. These leaders view the promotion of women's health and dignity worldwide as integral to strong foreign policy. In his first week in Office, President Obama announced that the U.S. would restore support for UNFPA. Shortly thereafter $50 million dollars was released to UNFPA. Further, in early January, as one of her first priorities for 2010, Secretary Clinton presented a landmark speech addressing the health of women globally.
Still, our work is far from done. The global needs of women are urgent and life threatening. Every minute a woman dies in pregnancy or childbirth, from largely preventable causes. On behalf of women everywhere and with supporters hailing from every corner of the United States, Americans for UNFPA will continue to advocate for increased support for UNFPA.
As we promote UNFPA's efforts to end maternal death, ensure access to contraception and improve women's lives, I am hopeful that leaders worldwide will also invest more in women.
As leaders continue to meet this week at the 54th Session of the Commission on the Status of Women, and we congregate on Capitol Hill, we ask you too, to use this opportunity to call on our leaders to meet the commitments agreed upon 15 years ago. We must hold our leaders accountable to ensure that women's rights are guaranteed as human rights.
Americans for UNFPA builds moral, political and financial support within the United States for UNFPA. UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund, provides women's health and promotes the rights of women in 150 countries.
