Year Purchased: 2000
I was blessed with these properties after facing the terror of Sept. 11th. That is why, I am more than grateful to the one true God for this blessing that i love to share with all my guest. Thank you all for choosing to stay with us.
Lorraine LaSalle purchased this villa in 2001
Its the closes place to paradise. A serene heavenly place that keeps calling you back for more. Whether you reserve our beachfront properties or our exotic Mediterranean style home on the cliffs facing breathtaking panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean; we know your stay with us will be an unforgettable one.
A relaxing hidden paradise that brings you back to what reality should be like. No stress, no worries, good people, good food and good times in a true tropical paradise.
First the good: The house has a lot of character -- great big wooden shutter doors that you can open all the way to make one whole side of the house open to the beach, spanish tile floors, a nice large dining table. It also sits directly on a wonderful beach that has an area that is calm (perfect for children), snorkeling, and lots of interesting little fish. Isabela is also very convenient to the Aguadilla airport.
Now for the reasons we have mixed feelings: There was very little water pressure or hot water (I didn't have a hot shower the entire week), and the water intermittently shut off and the owner didn't do anything to help us with this. At one point we couldn't flush the toilets, which was inconvenient to put it mildly. There are also several leaks in the house. I had a standing puddle in the master bathroom for most of the week; my friends had water dripping down on them in the night; and we had to keep a tub under one of the air conditioners (it accumulated over a gallon of water by the end of the week).
I don't expect things to work perfectly when we travel, but I was disappointed that the owner didn't try to help us. I'm still giving it three stars because the location was great and the house has potential.
We were in villa #3. One of the two bedroom air conditioners didn't work, so it was unpleasant sleeping in that room. Since that had been cited as a problem months ago I'd expected it to have been fixed. The place overall is just worn. But other than the a/c it was at least serviceable and the location is absolutely ideal...right in front of the best place to get in the water for skin diving or surfing Shacks.
Stayed for 5 nights with my husband and two teenage sons. I am a traveler who has stayed in many a rental.
First the great stuff. The apartment boasts a fantastic lay out. The views are absolutely stunning. The rooms are large and comfortable. Furnishings are also very very good for hanging out, reading and relaxing. The ability to be open air within the entire space and/or open the wood vented shutters is fantastic. A very creative looking space. The pictures show off the earthy boho feel of the rental. What the pictures do not show is the wear and tear. I have stayed in many beach front rentals and understand what sand and salt air can do to a place, but I think owners have some responsibility to on occasion check things out and make yearly fixes are made and do minor upkeep.
The master bathroom only has one working faucet with cold water only, and the master shower head desperately needs replacing. The water pressure is terrible. You can not get a hot in shower in the master bathroom, the lousy head coupled with awful pressure, makes for a tepid shower at best. The master air conditioner needs a new filter and does not blow anywhere near as cool as the other two units in the apartment, if it were any warmer, I might have been bothered by that.
The smaller bathroom also has little water pressure and little consistent temperature, water goes from cold to warm and back consistently. Last, cockroaches in both the small bathroom as well as the bedroom with two twins. I know this is a warm humid climate, I know they are common, BUT, I grew up in NYC, where we exterminated regularly to get rid of these pests. I do not want them in my rental at anytime. 😳
Bottom line, this is a well furnished place, with incredible beach access, beautiful views in a fantastic location at a reasonable price, but I do think you owe your patrons a few reasonable improvements. I would consider coming again if some up keep is made to the property. I loved the vibe.
I first discovered this villa about a year ago. Now when I think of a beach home I always remember Lorraine's listing of villa #4. It is not pretentious and has all the comforts you need and more. The view is breath taking, wood doors and windows open up completely allowing an interior/exterior environment. The area is great right in front of shacks beach, great for snorkeling, kite surfing, paddling and more. It is walking distance to the Villa Montaña Resort, so if you don't feel like cooking great food is just a 5min walk on the beach, literally. Lorraine is a very lovely and accommodating host I will definitely be back soon!!!
The unit is quaint and has a nice beachfront location. However, its has some serious wear and tear. Doors and windows that open up to the balcony had lots of rust, making them dificult to operate. The biggest turn off was that the A/C on the master bedroom was not working, so my wife and I ended up sleeping on the third room with our two kids. We contacted the owner and she told that they need to do an electric work in order to fix the problem. We only wish we would have known beforehand.
Relaxed. Easy. Accommodating. Beach. Rustic. Beautiful. Location. Location. Location.
Magaly. Property manager. Awesome.

In brief: Lennon: our tails are up
Neil Lennon believes his Celtic side have their "tails up'' for this afternoon's keenly-awaited Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash with Rangers at Parkhead.
Both Glasgow giants have won their opening eight SPL fixtures this season with the Ibrox men top of the table only on goal difference.
The Hoops' boss, though, is unbeaten in 16 SPL games since taking over from Tony Mowbray in March and his team come off what he described as their best performance of the season, the 2-1 win over Dundee United at Tannadice last week.
Lennon is pleased by the way his squad, many of whom he recruited in the summer, have gelled together and claims they are in prime condition ahead of the visit from their bitter rivals.
"I think it's as good as it gets from where we started from,'' said the former Celtic skipper, who beat Rangers 2-1 last season in his Old Firm debut as manager.
"They were excellent against Dundee United last week.''
No early joy for Calderwood
Colin Calderwood suffered a painful 4-2 defeat to Aberdeen at Pittodrie in his first match in charge of Hibernian.
The Dons, who had previously taken only one point from a possible 18, squandered a couple of chances before Chris Maguire broke the deadlock on 18 minutes.
Scott Vernon added a second after 33 minutes when his volley took a wicked deflection off defender Sol Bamba.
The Aberdeen goalscoring duo combined five minutes after the break to grab a third, this time with Vernon sliding home Maguire's shot-cum-cross at the back post.
Paul Hartley scored a fourth from the penalty spot before Colin Nish pulled a goal back after 63 minutes. Bamba headed home a second for Hibs in the final minute.
Keane has no complaints
Ipswich boss Roy Keane was not complaining despite seeing his side lose for the third successive match away to Nottingham Forest.
David McGoldrick struck first before Lewis McGugan hit a stunning 35-yard shot to secure an impressive 2-0 victory for the home side at the City Ground.
"The second goal coming just before half time was a real blow for us. We just wanted to get in 1-0 down and we should have seen it out to the break,'' said Keane.
"We conceded two bad goals and we didn't get any breaks ourselves -- but that's the way it is at the moment. We didn't make their goalkeeper work too hard.
"Forest are ahead of us at the moment in that they have some very good players with experience and we are asking young players to do a man's job.
"But we have good honesty in the squad and when you have that you have a chance.
Pompey do it on the pitch
Portsmouth made light of their off-field turmoil by registering their third straight Championship win, thanks to goals either side of half time by David Nugent and Greg Halford.
Pompey's future remains in some doubt, despite positive noises from the representatives of former owner Sacha Gaydamak. Nick Barmby pulled one back for Hull with just under half an hour left but Portsmouth survived to continue their march up the table.
Canaries hit back in style
Norwich manager Paul Lambert was thrilled to see his team bounce back with victory over Middlesbrough after the midweek defeat to Crystal Palace.
Simeon Jackson, a summer signing from Gillingham, scored the only goal of the game on the stroke of half time at Carrow Road to move Norwich up to fourth place in the Championship.
Lambert said,: "When you get beaten you've always got to do your best to win the next one and I thought the lads responded really well to that setback.''
Parkin's brace for Preston
Jon Parkin scored his 100th club goal as Preston put aside their recent woes with a hard-fought 4-3 victory to leapfrog fellow Championship strugglers Crystal Palace in a thrilling clash.
The burly striker, 28, achieved the feat with a first-half brace that helped put his side 3-1 in front at the break.
Keith Treacy and skipper Callum Davidson were also on target either side of half-time but the spirited Eagles ensured a nervous finish with goals from Andy Dorman and James Vaughan.
Sven tastes first defeat
Swansea moved up to third in the Championship with a 2-0 home victory over Leicester which left Sven-Goran Eriksson tasting defeat for the first time since taking charge.
On-loan Middlesbrough man Marvin Emnes, a half-time introduction, was the match-winner with his first goal for the Swans, in his first game and with virtually his first touch.
Scott Sinclair made the points safe in the 94th minute with his 10th goal of the season.

Bodybuilders in Brazil are risking death by injecting themselves with a potentially lethal cocktail of oil and alcohol to pump up their muscles.
Arlindo de Souza has grown 29in biceps - the biggest in Brazil - after injecting the filler into his body, where it causes appearance of swollen muscles.
But even he admits it can cause dangerous infections. Some users have had their arms amputated. Others have died.
'My friend Paulinho, he passed away from doing these things,' said Mr de Souza. 'I felt his death a lot. He took it, I took it, but he went beyond the limit. I advise no-one to take this oil.
'I've stopped taking it, and other things as well, but there is always that will to start again. But I'm managing to control myself, to this day.'
The Arnold Schwarzenegger fan, nicknamed 'The Mountain' in his hometown, had already been taking a cocktail of steroids, hormones and horse vitamins to bulk up.
Then a gym buddy offered him a 'site enhancement oil' to help pull ahead of his rivals.
'The guy gave it to me. He said, "Take this, it will make you grow in days",' said Mr de Souza, who is single and lives with his elderly mother, Josefa Gomes de Souza, in Olinda on the coast of Brazil's Pernambuco state.
'I loaded the syringe, put it in my arm, injected it and it swelled me up right there and then.
'To tell you the truth, I didn't feel a thing. There was sometimes a bit of dizziness but nothing apart from that.
'I was working out the same so my strength stayed the same - nothing changed.
'Most people who take it do not know how to apply it. They will use just any old blood vessel. Some will end up loosing an arm, another needs an operation, some may even lose their lives.'
Injecting site enhancement oils carry the risk of infection and of abscesses developing in the muscle. These abbesses can grow and spread within the tissue.
Some users, when operated on, have been found to have arms full of pus and oil.
Mr de Souza has fears for his own health and has visited a clinic for help. But medics have so far refused to operate because 'he did it to himself'.
The oil concoction Mr de Souza injected is believed to contain mostly mineral oil, which is similar to baby oil but unscented, and smaller amounts of alcohol and anaesthetic.
Worryingly, he has said it can easily be bought online or under-the-counter at rogue pharmacies.
And, though he has stopped using and warns others to stay away from it, he says it is continuing to sweep across body-conscious Brazil and South America.

I've downloaded Yosemite Zone 10.10.1 DMG file, and created a 'bootable' USB stick with TransMac, but simply it doesn't boot. And the problem with BootdiskUtility is that needs to delete all files, and you can't select a specific partition without deleting the whole disk.
If someone knows how to boot it on UEFI (or at least CSM/Legacy Boot) without using a Mac, let me know.

A CLOSE political associate of Redcliffe MP Scott Driscoll, who sacked 23 staff members of the community group at the centre of the scandal surrounding the MP last week, told the shocked workers the controversy was hurting his croquet game.
Geoff Jamieson, election campaign treasurer for Mr Driscoll and a board member of the Regional Community Association Moreton Bay, told the staff "you are all stood down" and then berated them for demanding information about their future.
"You've asked for it so I'm giving it to you," he told astonished workers.
"You asked me for the facts but you didn't let me explain any of the things, so that's what you wanted, OK?"
He had earlier explained that he had resigned as treasurer of RCAMB "some time in February" and then returned so the board - which Mr Driscoll stacked with his political associates - could continue to function.
"Before I came back on as treasurer, I went right through all the accounts to satisfy myself that the organisation was one, solvent, and two, that it had sufficient funds to carry on the programs, and three, that there was no financial impropriety or irregularities in any of the accounting," Mr Jamieson told staff.
"I went right through that with the information that was available to me before I left because what happened is, the day I did that I had to go off, because I play croquet and I was representing the state of Queensland in Adelaide for the ... er, umm, south-east croquet ... er ... state team.
"So I went away to Adelaide for two weeks ...
"When you're playing for your state you have to concentrate and I had to block a lot of this out until I got back."
Shocked staff demanded Mr Jamieson "get to the facts", at which point he told them they were all stood down.
The Courier-Mail revealed last month that Mr Driscoll has been controlling RCAMB from behind the scenes and funneling $120,000 in consulting fees to his wife's company, Norsefire. Queensland Health has hired an accounting firm to audit the RCAMB but investigators have yet to visit the premises.
The financial collapse of RCAMB last week has raised concerns for the association's 500 vulnerable clients, who rely on its programs.
Speaking to The Sunday Mail after Thursday's meeting, Mr Jamieson distanced himself from Mr Driscoll, accusing him of having "run for the hills".
"I am not here for one second to protect Scott Driscoll," he said. "He is no friend of mine."
He said he tried to avoid standing down staff by appealing to the State Government to lift its funding freeze, but was told money would not be available until after the audit.
Mr Driscoll has repeatedly refused to respond to media questions about his involvement in RCAMB.

Matthew S.'s B777 Project Update (Oct 15/06) part 2
The Aft lower portion of the Nose has to be cut in order to lower the unit the 12" that we were over on height. This took some careful planning.
Steve and the guys had to align the Nose with the door and slowly lower the aft end down enough to clear the top of the door... That alone was a challenge let alone the fact that once the unit was in the door they had to wrestle the Nose around to position it inside the shop. One half of the shop is now filled with a Full A320 Trainer that is shipping in November and Matthew's B777 Project. Special thanks to Eric, Al and our newest FDS Team Member Shawn who joined us a few weeks ago and has been a huge boost to our capabilities and motivation.
Steve pulled off the biggest challenge I have ever thrown at him. After being around me for some 40-odd years you think I would go easy on him.. Not so. Thank you Steve.
For Matthew, He sees a huge dream take a giant step forward. While we push on with the cleaning if the internals and developing ALL the B777 parts you can imagine... Matthew has his hands full working on elements at his end.

What price should I consider in purchasing No. 1. Stone Crop Close in Locks Heath Southampton SO31 6AY if the asking price is £156,950?
The advertised asking price of £156,950 is to purchase a property at SO31 6AY , What price would I expect to pay into today's market?

Depends how long on market and vendors position. Depends on your buying ability ie. deposit and funds. I would start at 150k.. number 18 went for £143 in March this year. Prices in Southampton are rising fast and houses sell quickly. Don't make mistake of thinking it's a buyers market here because shortage of houses coming to market mean several buyers for every property!Answered on Aug 19 2009, Report content
If you have the funds in place i.e. mortgage offer, the right deposit and can move quickly (not part of a chain) then an offer of £150,000 would look very inviting, but please remember there is a real shortage of properties on the market today and with more buyers than sellers, sellers are sometimes waiting for the full asking price. Talk to the agent thats selling the property, explain your current circumstances and if you can move quickly make sure that the agent relays this to their client. I live in Locks Heath myself so i'm very aware of how quickly the right property can sell. Good luck.Answered on Dec 16 2009, Report content
What is the property worth to you!!! If you lost it for the sake of £2k how would you feel??? If this is to be your home and not an investment then as long as it is within your comfort zone financially and is priced correctly for the area then think long term!Answered on Feb 25 2010, Report content

Teemo 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.
The Lore
Teemo is a legend among his yordle brothers and sisters in Bandle City. As far as yordles are concerned, there is something just slightly off about him. While Teemo enjoys the companionship of other yordles, he also insists on frequent solo missions in the ongoing defense of Bandle City. Despite his genuinely warm personality, something switches off inside Teemo's mind during combat so that the lives he must end while on patrol do not burden him. Even as a young recruit, the drill instructors and other trainees found it a little disconcerting that, while Teemo was normally charming and kind, he turned deadly serious and highly efficient the minute combat exercises began. Teemo's superiors quickly steered him toward the Scouts of the Mothership, which is one of Bandle City's most distinguished Special Forces unit alongside the Megling Commandos.
While most yordles do not handle solo scouting missions with a great deal of finesse, Teemo is remarkably efficient at them. His record of success in defending Bandle City from infiltrators easily makes him one of the most dangerous yordles alive, though you'd never know it by having a cup of honey mead with him at his favorite inn. Bandle City chose Teemo as their first champion for the League, and he has taken to it like a duck to water. His signature weapon - a blowgun - uses a rare ajunta poison he personally gathers from the jungles. To help cope with his lengthy periods of isolation, Teemo recently struck up a friendship with Tristana, a fellow League champion and fellow member of Bandle City's Special Forces. This connection is healthy for both yordles, though now Valoran's voracious media outlets circulate rumors that the friendship is turning into a romantic relationship. Regardless, Teemo is a crowd favorite in the League of Legends, and a pint-sized foe that many have come to fear.
Well, well, well. This is a guide about the swift scout Teemo. This guide is based off my first experience with the tiny yordle. I hope you will find this helpful and guiding. Let's get started!
Teemo steps into the spotlight
Do you like running around and scouting while you tease enemies, so they follow you and you lead them into a trap? So, all this is pretty much included if you play as Teemo. This tiny, little yordle can give you the speed you need to run from enemies and the annoying attack methods, that can make anyone mad. But be careful there may be some downsides too.
+ Fast and toxic attacks
+ Effective stealth passive
+ Endless ward / trap supplies
+ Great escaping / chasing skills
+ Good to watch over the map with
- Needs good escape routes
- Must have distance to fight
- Targeted often in teamfights
- Situational awareness required
- Get caught almost equals death
Information for the troop
I've played League of Legends for quite a while, but I never played as Teemo before. I tried him out and I liked him. This guide is based of my first game playing as the tiny boy scout (but be sure also to check out my other builds too).
When you build Teemo like I did the first time, you will be provided with a decent amount of health, atk. damage and some ability power. This is a so-called 'balanced' guide, which will give Teemo overall power. But mostly one thing is important with a champion like Teemo. You need your situational awareness; it was what gave me this in my first game playing as Teemo:
So hurry up and... "situational awareness activate!" ^^
Mastery arrangement
I recommend a good old 21-9-0 setup. This will provide a bit more health than usual, thanks to Veteran's Scars and Durability .
About the 21 points in the offensive masteries, there's only for me to mention that this mastery tree was the one I tried when I first played as Teemo. You can freely try go with another combination of masteries, because you might know a better combi than this. ^^
Scouting the runes
Greater Quintessence of Attack Speed
Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist
Greater Seal of Scaling Armor
Greater Mark of Attack Speed
My goal with the runes is to speed up the little scout. With Greater Quintessence of Attack Speed and Greater Mark of Attack Speed you should be able to place some good shots onto your enemies' backs and maybe make them hurry back towards their towers. But haste makes waste and your Toxic Shot might finish them off. That's why you need the atk. speed. To place in a quick shot on your enemy!
Viable spells
With this cool damage over time spell together with your Toxic Shot, you might be able to secure a kill of a fleeing enemy or at least scare them a lot.
Even though Teemo got many escape techniques, it's always good to have one more or simply just to teleport through a wall when the enemies have you cornered.
The swift scout has Move Quick which can help him run out fast and surprise attack, but this will give you an alternative to make an unexpected appearance.
This is a perfect skill if you're in a sticky situation and needs just a little more health, it can save you from humiliation by enemies' Ignite.
The abilities of a yordle
When it comes to abilities for Teemo, I recommend to go for the Toxic Shot as first priority. This is simply because of the damage over time. Your 'E' skill is also a passive, no cost and will strike your enemies with terror. So I strongly recommend it for the purpose of surprise attacking enemies or just poking them painfully.
Afterwards I like to boost Teemo with Move Quick, that way you can make ubelieveable escapes with the passive as well as the active. I've seen people running around almost the entire map with the enemy team behind them (don't try this at home). ^^
Equipment of importance
|Item Sequence
Frozen Mallet
Nashor's Tooth
Hextech Gunblade
Madred's Bloodrazor
Banshee's Veil
So it's time to look at the items.
- Berserker's Greaves - Faster movement, faster attacks equals faster kills.
- Frozen Mallet - Providing health and slow enemies, for chasing and kill securing.
- Nashor's Tooth - More atk. speed and ability power makes Teemo more deadly.
- Hextech Gunblade - Ability power, atk. damage and LIFE STEAL!
- Madred's Bloodrazor - Little bit of armor, atk. speed and good passive.
- Banshee's Veil - Protection with a nifty blocking passive, good while fleeing.
For pathfinders
This picture is an illustration of which areas to put Noxious Trap in Summoner's Rift.
- The red circles indicates areas, where the traps are helping out the jungler of your team and/or revealing where the enemy jungler are.
- Blue circles means that the area around there is a good spot to place a trap that eventually will give you a warning about enemies trying to gank.
- All the green circles represents a shroom, these green spots are meant to be hotspots where a trap placement typically will catch an enemy, whether he or she is fleeing or trying to chase you
Tips and Tricks
Here some tips and tricks about what to do and not to do as Teemo:
That's it
Near the end, I see. Well, I really hope this helped you out at some point. If not, please tell me what I can do to improve it. I'll be sure to make some improvements and/or upgrades to my guide. So please be sure to check it out from time to time.
I'll really appreciate if you leave a comment with constructive criticism or just a word about my guide.
And if you really like it be sure to rate it so others can check it out.
Until next time, stay positive. ^^

This Just In!
China and the United States have agreed to reductions of their greenhouse gases by 2025, this is good news! While more could be done, at least there is a target to hit. Unfortunately in Canada, we are failing to meet our 2020 targets, and Environment Canada has not followed step, as would be expected, with the commitments the U.S. is making in regard to GHG reductions.
We sincerely hope that Tzoa will help people understand the connection we have with our environment, and how precious our air and environment really is.

This exquisite Victorian keepsake offers an amazing array of tints that blend beautifully against the black marble background. Many of these pieces were crafted in Italy and brought back as souvenirs by the Victorians to be framed. The frame on this pin is hallmarked sterling and is most likely of American origins.
Pietra Dura translates to hard rocks. Crafted by artisans who carved out the black marble to insert the colorful semi precious stones. I love to find these pieces, always unique and truly wonderful. It measures 1-3/8'' x 1-1/8''. No flaws detected.

©1980 Translation by Robert Fitgerald; (P)1995 HighBridge Company.
"Fitzgerald's is so decisively the best modern Aeneid that it is unthinkable that anyone will want to use any other version for a long time to come." (The New York Review of Books)
"The Legend of Rome and Caesar Augustus"
This book is easy to understand, fascinating and helps one better understand Greek myths and Roman mythology.
The first part of this book is adventurous, like the Odyssey, and the second is fighting, like the Iliad. The best of both books, though not as much of a smash and bang cacaphony like the Iliad, and it has the better storyline of the Odyssey.
I have not.
No it did not. It was strictly read for school purposes, though I would listen to it again.
Hard to tell exactly where you are. Not much warning of which chapter your in, so if this is for school purposes, you may want to get the Robert Fitzgerald translation in the actual book. Be warned, the two are not fully parallel, the audio will occasionally skip up to five pages or more just to get to the point, this can cause confusion. The two for the most part read the same.
"Strange Narration"
I feel like this audio has been time stretched in the editing process, the narrator's voice is fine but can be hard to listen to as the audio moves, it sounds like the time compressed it to make it shorter.
"Not complete"
This version is incomplete and the chapter divisions are off. Chapter 3 was missing completely and it is almost impossible to find chapter breaks. Not happy!
"The aeneid"
the recording seems to skips parts of the book that i have. Its a little weird
"All the emotion alive in Ravenscroft' reading"
I read along too. better if unabridged.
but very moving as is. Thrilling actually.
"Strange Narration"
The narration seems awkward with now flow to it. It was almost as if Ravenscroft were reading from an instruction manual rather than a story.
The story is a classic, and the narrator does add a little emotion added at times.
Not likely.
this is abridged if you are looking for the full aeneid do not get this one
"This is abridged - but a poetic translation"
This is a beautiful poetic translation and is easier to follow. I cut off a star because however, because the audible recording is abridged and that is not noted, and it was difficult to purchase. Also no immersion version. The kindle version on the Amazon page is not the Fitzgerald translation.
"Could be better"
Much of the book is skipped over and if you want the full story you have to read the book.

WHILE most couples mark their silver wedding with a meal or flowers, Sylvia and Michael Peel opted for something a bit different.
In fact, the couple are taking the plunge all over again – only this time it's off the roof at the Stadium of Light.
The couple, from Washington, are taking part in a sponsored zip- wire challenge from the stadium to Leibherr's factory on the other side of the Wear. The pair are aiming to raise funds for the SAFC Foundation and St Benedict's Hospice.
As Sylvia explained, they have a very personal reason for taking part. Her brother Brian Jenkins was looked after in St Bendict's shortly before his death at just 51.
"My brother was a patient in St Benedict's Hospice a while ago and the care he and the whole family received was exceptional," said Sylvia.
"Sadly, he was only in there for two days but we have been wanting to do something for them ever since."
For two Sunderland fans, the chance to raise cash for St Benedict's and the SAFC Foundation was too good to miss.
"We have never done anything like this before, " said Sylvia, 47. "Michael has been saying for years that we should do something for charity, so when this came along, we thought, 'It's our silver wedding, so why not?'
"It's a great way to celebrate our anniversary. As lifelong Sunderland supporters, it's great to able to support the work of the SAFC Foundation too. We wouldn't have done anything like this in our 20s – the older we get, the more daring we become."
The couple, who are Sunderland AFC season ticket holders, will have been married for 25 years on April 18, just three days before the zip-wire challenge.
Even 48-year-old Michael's workmates at Debenhams in the MetroCentre are sponsoring him, despite the fact they are all Newcastle United supporters,
Sylvia Stoneham, fund-raiser for St Benedict's Hospice, added: "I'm delighted Sylvia and Michael are celebrating their special anniversary in this unique way. I know they'll have an amazing experience and an anniversary to truly remember, whilst helping their favourite charities to continue the excellent work we both do in our local communities."
Anyone who would like to support Sylvia and Michael can sponsor them on justgiving.com/michael-peel1
All places have now been taken for the event, thought organisers are hoping to free up extra slots. Contact St Benedict's Hospice on 569 9194 or SAFC Foundation on 551 5191

Quick and Quintessential Career & Job Tips
Job-hunting tips from the April 12, 2004 issue of QuintZine.
If you're unemployed, you might want to consider an internship — even if it means working for no pay, writes Amy Lindgren in an article in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that suggests that internships aren't only for college students. "An internship is a cross between volunteer work and apprenticeships," Lindgren writes. "Like the former, it is usually unpaid and the commitment is short term. Like the latter, it provides a structured work experience centered on goals for skill development."
Lindgren points out that an internship can provide an opportunity to apply for permanent positions from inside the company. "Even if no job offer results from the experience, an intern who does well usually earns new contacts, generous letters of reference and substantial work experience, Lindgren notes, observing that "internships are an especially good tool for mid-life career changers who need to quickly learn new skills while also building a network in the new field."
Lindgren says structured internships can be found in a directory, such as Peterson's Internships, an annual guide available at libraries and bookstores.
"To create your own internship," Lindgren writes, "you will need to know which skills you are trying to develop and which companies can help you build those skills in exchange for your labor. This process of information gathering can take several weeks or months, depending on your familiarity with the field."
Lindgren also suggests attending meetings of the professional associations serving your target industry to meet employers with whom you can create an internship.
No. 9: Have you found some job leads? I hope so. Apply for what you have found whether it is a job you want or not. I am not advocating lying to yourself or to an employer. I am suggesting this exercise as practice. You might get the job you want in a practice mode. It can happen! You are still exploring with more action steps! …. to be continued …

Th (Part 11: Dr. Helen Caldicott) Trailer (2014)
Dr. Helen Caldicott is the most prominent anti-nuclear activist in the world. She's been featured on CNN, 60 Minutes, CBC and Democracy Now. In the 80s, Helen Caldicott campaigned against nuclear weapons testing in the pacific (still responsible today for the majority of tritium we're exposed to), and against the notion of a winnable nuclear war. She was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts. She has always made inaccurate statements regarding civilian nuclear power. But, since the Fukushima-Diachii radiation release has caused (and is projected to cause) zero fatalities... http://www.unis.unvienna.org/unis/en/... ...her tone has changed when speaking to supporters. This has not been acknowledged by prime-time media, as they continue to use her as a source.

Cape Town is often compared to Vancouver. The similarities are not entirely superficial. Both have sublime settings between mountain and sea. Both flaunt their beach culture. Both are major ports and gateways to their respective countries. And now they have something else in common.
A few weeks ago I was visiting Cape Town, the city of my birth. Fever for World Cup football (soccer to us Canadians) was building. The huge new stadium was complete. Excitement was in the warm air, but something else as well, a strange sensation that at first I could not put my finger on. Then it hit me. The city was experiencing something eerily similar to what Vancouver had recently gone through just prior to the 2010 Winter Olympics - a serious attack of nerves about whether they would be ready and able to pull this thing off.
Local newspapers were full of stories about cost overruns, corrupt contracts, insufficient hotel beds, inadequate transportation infrastructure and rapidly approaching deadlines. Not to mention serious questions about why the South African government had spent billions of rands on state-of-the-art stadiums that it can't afford and that no one really needs when a large chunk of the population still does not have access to formal housing, clean water or electricity. The makeshift tin shanties lining the freeway from the airport into Cape Town are just the tip of a massive iceberg. Visitors arriving for the World Cup will not be able to avoid noticing the discrepancies.
Then there were the paroxysms of fear about the country's notoriously rampant violent crime. How are the authorities going to protect all those nice foreign-currency fans from the random assaults, rapes, carjackings and murders that are the Rainbow Nation's stock-in-trade headlines?
But Cape Town is funny that way. It is if anything even more laid back and seemingly easygoing than Vancouver, and its residents pride themselves on a certain provisionality, just-in-time solutions. Or perhaps it is simply avoidance at work. Don't be fooled by that laissez-faire beach culture: Cape Town does crime as well as the other World Cup-venue cities do. So the nervousness was somewhat masked, but I picked up the unmistakable scent. And with some justification, it seems.
It turns out that FIFA, soccer's governing body, may have sold South Africa a bill of goods. Tickets remain unsold. The committed international visitor numbers are way off projections, and FIFA's marketing branch has reportedly leased only a small percentage of the overpriced corporate boxes in the gleaming new stadiums. Meanwhile, locals hoping to cash in on the party by either renting out their homes or offering services to the punters are finding that FIFA's long reach has effectively shut them down, unless officially sanctioned (read: hefty commissions to FIFA).
And yet it seems that many South Africans, black and white, are pinning their hopes on this global extravaganza to somehow pull themselves and their country out of the miasma of its multiple problems, to lift this achingly beautiful yet benighted country to some new level of prosperity and stability. Talking to people in Cape Town, you could really feel this - a kind of suspension of disbelief, or perhaps just natural optimism born of living in such a stunning place, that if only they can pull this off, the city would right itself, would be able to get on top of the mounting problems in its own backyard, such as crime, pervasive drug and sex trafficking, HIV-AIDS, staggering unemployment (officially at 34 per cent when I was there, but estimated to be closer to 40 per cent) and a national government that seems remote and at cross purposes with the Mother City's liberal values and political history.
So, as South African writer Rian Malan explained recently in an article in the London Observer, the World Cup turns out to be "an event of huge symbolic importance" to the most unlikely beneficiaries: the poor underclass of blacks who have never risen to the heights promised by political liberation and the triumph over apartheid.
What lies beneath this improbable expectation is the country's dirty not-so-secret secret. Increasing numbers of blacks, who voted overwhelmingly - although less so in the Western Cape - for the African National Congress in the past, no longer believe that the ANC government will lift their lives up. They have lost faith in the face of growing corruption, nepotism and some 16 years of unfulfilled promises. Especially, it seems, in Cape Town. So they pin their hopes on the World Cup instead.
Reading the papers in Cape Town, you could be forgiven for thinking that South Africa is on the way to becoming yet another African basket-case. The political scandals, reverse racism (now against whites) and decidedly undemocratic pronouncements by some in power are so outlandish that in Canada they would lead to the downfall of governments. Here they are just so much copy.
So the dream for many who experience this on a daily basis is that come kickoff day on June 11, the world media's attention will turn to South Africa and find something redeeming. And they might still do so. South Africa remains a place of astonishing contrasts and vitality. Its people, accustomed perhaps to living on the edge, have an amazing capacity for optimism and creative adaptation. And Cape Town is still the most beautiful city in the world. Just like Vancouver.

Missed one, Alkmaar as well.

Assuming you can be at Amsterdam Centraal at 09.00, you take the 09.04 to Koog-Zaandijk, where you arrive at 09.20.
From here it's a short walk to the Zaanse Schans.
Assuming you're back at the Koog-Zaandijk station at 12.00, you take the 12.05 to Alkmaar, where you arrive at 12.44.
Alkmaar not being such a large city, you could easily be back at the station to take the 15.16 to Haarlem, another good place to visit. You're there at 15.48.
After looking around and having a beer at a terrace, you can easily be back at the station at 18.00 to get the 18.02 back to Amsterdam, which takes a mere 15 minutes.
From Amsterdam to Den Haag Centraal is easy. The 08.58 gets you there directly in 49 minutes.
Kinderdijk has a lot of options. The easiest is the 13.22 from The Hague to Dordrecht, arriving there at 14.01. Near the railway station you'll find bus 18, leaving at 14.11. At 14.49 you're at Kinderdijk, from where it's a 5- or 10-minute walk to what you came for.
All can easily be done by yourself by using the public transport planner http://9292.nl/en

To add a critical note: the term »challenge« is used so much, it's almost getting a totally empty expression.
Report Abuse
Oh yes, I've taken the liberty to change your schedule. It's not very practical to have Alkmaar and Den Haag on one day, and Kinderdijk on another. A quick look on the map will learn you why. Unless you have good reasons to do so, in which case the link I gave you will show you how to plan your journeys.
Report Abuse
Zaanse Schans if a fraction of greatness of Kinderdijk - could eliminate Zaanse Schans IMO - why Alkmaar unless on cheese market day - oh a nice old city but not better than a dozen or so more.
Report Abuse
»Zaanse Schans if a fraction of greatness of Kinderdijk«
You're totally right, if only because the mills at Kinderdijk are in their natural habitat. I'd love to send our dear OP from Alkmaar via Schermerhorn to Hoorn, but I'm afraid that would really be a »challenge«.
The windmill complex at Schermerhorn is also such a beauty, in the middle of the endless green of North Holland. And Hoorn is a good destination, with the wonderful Westfries Museum.
Report Abuse
lol~ just forget about the word challenge as i have no idea how big all these places are.
I will play around with the planner later.
Should i stay in Amsterdam for all these four days? and should i forget about Alkmaar because the cheese market is already over? or still worth the visit?
Report Abuse
imo Alkmaar is too far out for what you want to do.
For Kinderdijk, you go to Rotterdam and take the Waterbus to Ridderkerk and change there to the ferry to Kinderdijk. You could continue to Dordrecht from there and take the train back to Amsterdam from Dordrecht. Or you could factor in Rotterdam as well, a totally different experience from Amsterdam and all those vaguely 17th century Provincial towns with a canal.
Report Abuse
»Should i stay in Amsterdam?«
If you mean whether you should change base, the answer is a clear no. Distances in the Netherlands are so small and the public transport is so efficient, there is no real need for it.
If you mean whether it is necessary to stay in Amsterdam, the answer is also a clear no. Why not have your base in, say, Haarlem? Nice city. Not overcrowded with all those tourists who think the Netherlands starts and finishes with Amsterdam. And only 15 train minutes from Amsterdam.
Alkmaar in itself is not very special. It has its nice things, but not really worth a train ride. Hoorn is much better if you want to go out.
The Waterbus from Rotterdam to Kinderdijk is one of the nicest ways to get to Kinderdijk, but it's more complicated then taking the bus from Dordrecht. After having visited Kinderdijk, you can take the ferry to Dordrecht. Interesting city.
Report Abuse
Nothing "complicated" about the Waterbus, I assure you. The Dordrecht busstation to me is quite a confusing place, and i go there quite often. The river is nicer.
Report Abuse
Guys. Please accept my apology, i didn't realise that i actually have 5 days, instead of 4 (25/11-29/11).
I will take your advice to put aside Alkmaar,based on your suggestion and after referring to the map, this is my plan.
1st day: Zaanse Schans & Hoorn
2nd day: Harleem & Den Haag
3rd day: Kinderdjik & Dordretch
4th & 5th: Amsterdam
There is a couple of passes available, can you advise which one fit my plan best? What is the name of the pass? How much and what does it include?
I tried to play around with the 9292 journey planner and i could have done it inaccurately, the total fare involved is more than 200 euro for 2 pax! That is shockingly expensive, i hope i got a wrong calculation.
Report Abuse
Passes- railpasses - none that are economic enough for your plans - there is a Benelux Railpass - check www.seat61.com and www.budgeteuropetravel.com and www.ricksteves.com for lots on Benelux trains - anyway check the Benelux Railpass at sites above to see if it is better - probably more expensive than 100 euro a person.
Report Abuse
Those EUR 200 are very well possible. You're doing a lot of travelling on those 3 days. It amounts to some EUR 30 per person per day.
Report Abuse
I've checked it and it comes somewhat less than EUR 100 per person in total:
# EUR 16 Zaanse Schans and Hoorn (on the same ticket; Koog-Zaandijk is on the line Amsterdam - Hoorn; interrupting the journey is allowed);
# EUR 24 Haarlem and Den Haag (also on same ticket; Haarlem is on one of the lines Amsterdam - Den Haag);
# EUR 40 Dordrecht and Kinderdijk.
It's the trip to Dordrecht and Kinderdijk which is relatively expensive. It's up to you to decide whether you think it's worth it. Would you hesitate when it was EUR 30? Or 25? So, it's a EUR 10 or 15 difference which would make you miss something unique, and which you would regret afterwards. Just do it!
Report Abuse
10-15 euro is about the price of 4-5 cups of coffee. Europe even with declining euro is still expensive. There are no cheaper alternatives - no buses really duplicating train travel.
Report Abuse
May I know what does it mean by "interrupting the journey"? Taking Zaanse Schans and hoorn for instance, means I just need to buy one ticket (16euro) and I can travel to both destinations? (One way?) any duration given?
Report Abuse
yes you can buy just one ticket for those. Provided the journey is completed on the same day and by the most direct route available the ticket is valid.

Three weeks into the season, Chivas USA has already faced substantial peaks and valleys. Now, the team must deal with some down time.
Chivas USA is one of four Major League Soccer clubs without a scheduled league match for this upcoming weekend. Regardless of what happened the week before, Chivas USA coaches and players all said they would have preferred to hit the field for a competitive match instead of a Saturday night off early in the season.
"I don't think it would be the choice of any of us," Chivas USA coach Bob Bradley said. "You want to settle into a season and find some rhythm but unfortunately the stadium availabilities dictate the schedule. The timing is a bit frustrating but there is nothing we can do about it."
Last week, however, was no ordinary match for the Red-and-White. Southland rival Los Angeles Galaxy handed Chivas a gut-wrenching 2-1 defeat in the first Súper Clásico of the season on April 15, with both Galaxy goals coming in the last 10 minutes of the match. After the game, midfielder Jesse Marsch said that painful memory was not going to be pleasant.
"Anytime you lose a bad game you want to start playing right away again," Marsch said. "Thinking about that for two weeks is going to [stink]."
The timing of the off-week will not affect the team's training routine. The coaching staff had planned to amplify the fitness portion of the training session regardless of the team's opponent or lack thereof.
"That actually works well but we'll try to keep the rest the same," Bradley said. "They had Sunday and Monday off and now we'll work hard through this week. Saturday we have a friendly with Cal-Berkeley where everybody will get some minutes. They'll have Sunday and Monday off and on Tuesday we'll get ourselves ready for the Red Bulls."
Chivas, in fact, has two games scheduled for this week. Wednesday, the club is scheduled to face San Diego State in a scrimmage. Saturday's morning scrimmage against the University of California will give the club the opportunity to keep players as match-fit as possible.
The club's next MLS match is scheduled for April 29 against New York Red Bulls at Home Depot Center. Not having a match on April 22 is less than ideal, Bradley said.
"It's ideal to play every Saturday night, one week home and one week away and just find that rhythm like that. That's what the schedules in Europe really are like," Bradley said. "MLS hasn't gotten to that point yet. Hopefully it will but in the meantime we'll just have to deal with the schedule how it's laid out."

Edo Period Kakewake Agano Hachi
Directory: Antiques: Regional Art: Asian: Japanese: Earthenware: Pre 1900: Item # 1224030
View Seller Profile
Kita-aoyama 3-14-1
Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan
Guest Book
A very attractive and rare Agano ware dating from the Edo period (1615-1868).
This particular piece comes from the collection of an old Japanese family.
Agano ware has been made in the Chikuzen province (current Fukuoka prefecture) in northern Kyushu since the beginning of the 17th century. It was patronized by the leader of the Hosokawa clan of that period, Hosokawa Tadaoki (1563-1646), who was a tea practitioner and ordered a Korean potter named Sonkai to establish a kiln in the Tagawa village. Agano ware was originally made for the tea ceremony and was very much favored by Kobori Enshu (1579-1647), the great tea master, who appreciated its simple design.
The dark red glaze of this magnificent piece is only one of its great features. The contrast it creates with the lighter base, forming a beautiful kakewake (divided glaze), its asymmetrical shape and the evident yubi-ato (marks left by the potter's fingers) have shaped this bowl into a strong piece and an ode to that unique tradition.
The hachi is in perfect condition and will be shipped in an antique wooden box.
Dimensions: 21 x 6.5 cm (8.4 x 2.6 in); 756 g (7.7 lb)

I consider most insects and rodents my mortal enemies. At least indoors.
Outdoors in nature, I tend to admire them ...
... but they don't belong in my home!
I confess: I'm that girl who usually yells for her husband whenever there's a spider ... or moth ... or fly ... or ant ... or other live critter on the loose in our house. But on occasion, my superhero husband is not around ... and I have to take matters into my own hands!
One of those days came last summer.
I had just arrived home from work, and I felt my heart jump when I saw not just one or two ... but a whole long line of ants marching up and down the table in our living room, gathering crumbs from a leftover pot pie. Ewwwww!
I knew it would be a while before Dave got home. So, I armed myself for battle. My weapon of choice? A glass cup.
It was a strenuous battle filled with screams (my own!). Total dead ant count? 103.
So many casualties. But a worthy cause.
And our house was critter-free ... for a little while, at least. And then, this winter, there was The Great Mouse Invasion of 2014.
Dave calmly observed the mouse and told me he'd seen one. (I reacted less calmly.)
Then, a few days later, I saw it myself! A little gray, squeaking fuzzball scurried across the floor in our living room. I squealed and pulled my legs up on the couch. We tried to catch the little bugger time and again (because I'd rather have just let it outside than kill it), but it was too quick! We kept seeing it -- in the kitchen, in our bedroom (ugh!), and in our living room. I was surprised by the gutsy moves of this mouse; he always appeared in daylight!
Finally, we resorted to mouse traps. It took a long time, but the mouse was finally caught. Thankfully, Dave was the first to see it. He shielded me from seeing it ... and he disposed of the body. (Once again, Dave came to my rescue! He's my hero!)
Summer is coming. I wonder what insect and rodent invasions lie ahead yet this year? *shudder*

In the beginning of this year the current administration announced that the Provisional Waiver program would begin by the end of this year. Most people who are eligible for the program are waiting for the program to launch before doing anything, but it is smarter to be proactive. Listed below are three things we recommend begin doing while waiting for the commencement of the Provisional Waiver program.
- Order official copies of all your documents such as birth certificates, divorce decrees, and passports now. Once the Provisional Waiver program begins the demand for document such as Mexican birth certificates will increase and so will wait times for receiving those documents.
- Find an attorney. The attorney can help you begin the I-130 process. By hiring an attorney now, you are guaranteeing that you will have a reasonably priced attorney by the time the process begins and demand for attorneys increase.
- File an I-130 petition. You will not be able to file for the Provisional Waiver until you receive an I-130 petition approval, which can take up to six months after filing.


text: I used my Thai marinade found here: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/233270/thai-jerky To make some pork loin jerky. Just a small batch as I wanted to make sure that the fish sauce wouldn't overpower the meat. Well all I can say is this stuff is great. In fact if I didn't tell you it was pork, you wouldn't even know. It was hit today, so hot I could've smoked without heat! So to beat the heat I took my boys spelunking. We have several great caves to explore very close to home. Smoke away!!!
