Kythnos Accommodation Greece Kythnos
Kythnos Accommodation Greece Greek Hotels
You won't find a huge range of hotels on Kythnos as the island is largely overlooked by international tourists. But there are plenty of rooms to let and studio apartments available in high season to cater for the Athenian visitors who come here to take advantage of the curative thermal springs in the north of the island.
Domatia owners often wait at the quayside to greet visitors arriving off the ferries during July and August. If you haven't booked in advance your best bet is to either check out what these owners have to offer or scout around the waterfront and back streets of the port of Merihas for "rooms to let" signs. The owners may not be on the premises, especially if you're visiting out of season, but you'll find their phone numbers advertised in the windows or on the walls outside.
If you don't fancy trudging around the port in search of accommodation, pop along to Milos Express or Larentzakis Travel who will probably be able to help you.
Good choices include Paradise Rooms at the top of the town it's a hard climb up the steps to get to it but you'll be rewarded with fabulous views of the bay. Panayiota, behind the small bridge on the seafront, offers reasonably priced clean and spacious rooms with 2 3 beds, private bathroom, kitchenette and fridge.
Kythnos Hotel is the only proper hotel in town but you'll need to book well in advance if you want to stay here in high season. It's near the ferry dock, up the first set of steps on your way into town. The rooms are fairly basic but comfortable with air conditioning, TV and fridges. The hotel's rather limited facilities include a downstairs café.
There are plenty of places to stay in the small seaside resort of Loutra, in the north east corner of the island, which has grown up around the famous thermal springs. The increasing interest in alternative medicine brings visitors from far and wide to bathe in the radioactive waters which are rich in iron and sulphur. The waters are widely believed to ease a variety of ailments ranging from rheumatism and arthritis to heart and gynaecological problems.
You can stay in the state run Xenia baths complex and have a soak in the springs together with a basic health check (heart rate, blood pressure and weight).
The well equipped Kythnos Bay Hotel in Loutra is just 30 metres from the beach and 300 metres from the springs. All rooms have a fridge, TV, air conditioning and private balcony with either sea or mountain views. The hotel has a restaurant, a beachside taverna serving traditional Greek food, a spacious lounge and indoor and outdoor bars.
One of the most upmarket places to stay is the Porto Klaras Hotel which offers 20 studios and apartments a few metres from the beach at Loutra. The hotel has been built in the traditional Cycladic style and has wonderful panoramic views of the bay. All rooms have a private bathroom, fridge, TV, telephone and a veranda.
You can sometimes find rooms to rent in the picturesque inland town of Dryopida, especially in high season when islanders open their homes to visitors.
Kanala, in the south east corner of the island, has a small selection of pensions and studio apartments and you can also find rooms to rent around the double bay of Agio Dimitriou in the south west during the summer months.

California builder aiming for net zero
It's a known fact in southern and northern California that the homebuilding market is in dire straits. But that didn't stop Herb Gardner and three partners from launching City Ventures in Santa Ana in January 2009.
Gardner, president of homebuilding for City Ventures, said that his company focuses on building green townhomes in urban areas. He said that his company was formed with the idea of getting in at the bottom of the real estate cycle, with the market at historic lows.
"We used the concept that Warren Buffett takes credit for, which is to be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful. Knowing that homebuilding is completely cyclical, you want to start when others are fearful and get out when others are greedy," he said.
The company builds from San Diego to San Francisco, particularly in the 13 coastal counties within 40 miles of the coast.
"If you can supply for a reasonable price in those urban infill areas you're in a pretty consistent high demand environment. Even in these times. We've sold 100 homes this year," Gardner said. "I don't believe demand ever left supply restricted areas on the coast. Just that prices ran away from demand."
The company focuses on townhomes in the price range of $250,000 to $650,000. There are projects currently underway in Carlsbad, Encinitas, Brea, Signal Hill, Santa Barbara, Alhambra, Covina, Sunnyvale and Ventura. Four of the projects are being built to LEED Gold standards.
The homes are about 40 percent away from net zero. The goal is to be at net zero by 2014, five years after the company was founded. Since the company already has to build to Title 24 standards in California, that makes them greener than most U.S. states to start with. But solar power is ignored in Title 24, so City Ventures adds that to each townhome, Gardner said.
Every townhome is all electric, and features solar panels on the roof, as well as hybrid water heaters and a heat pump for heating and cooling. Each home also has a garage prewired for electric car charging.
Marketing is key to selling the homes. "We felt like the only way we could do this was by showing the consumer how they were saving money," Gardner said. "If there's a home that's $200,000 and the one next door is $220,000 and I say, 'but this one's green,' they will go ahead and go with the $200,000 house. Even though they say they want to be green, no one is willing to pay for it."
So, while the homes sold by City Ventures still cost more than the non-green version next door, the marketing campaign used by the sales team shows that with the additional savings on utility bills, the overall monthly cost of home ownership is the same, or less, than the seemingly cheaper home.
"The first four projects we made solar power standard and we made the homes all electric, so there's no natural gas and no gas bill. Even though $20 to $25 a month isn't a lot, people get that they have no gas bill. And because the majority of the power is coming from the sun, there's no electric bill," he said.
The company has also eliminated model homes. The cost to keep a model home running for approximately two years is about $10,000 per home, so that quickly adds to the overall cost to the builder. Instead, potential home buyers get 3D virtual tours of a home.
"Our big push right now is that you can actually own a home for less than you can rent. We call it the cocktail party concept that if you were going to go to a cocktail party tomorrow and announce, 'I just bought a new home,' you're going to get people saying, 'you're out of your mind, this is a crazy time.' You'll get negative news galore. As a builder we have to provide that person with the answer. 'Yes, I bought a new home. You know why I bought a new home? Because it's less than rent. It's cheaper to be green.' You have to give a person a reason to validate buying in this market," Gardner said.

Editorial: Politicians should serve all of us, not just base
Let's face it: We live in a divided country.
We'd love to believe this wasn't the case. Week after week, we see increasing examples of it.
Take the massacre in Las Vegas. A lone gunman holed up in a hotel room and proceeded to kill nearly five dozen people with no clear motive. It left us with a feeling of sadness and despair.
In short, it turned into another political fight.
If you were on the side of the Second Amendment, there were people saying your prayers were hypocritical.
If you believed that gun laws need immediate changers, you were accused of politicizing a tragedy too soon.
In reality, both sides were politicizing the tragedy in their own way.
It was a rare voice that spoke up and said let's look at this comprehensively from the violence portrayed in movies and video games, to the violence perpetrated on the streets, from reasonable gun control to a serious review of how we treat mental health.
Once again, this was debated as though it's a zero sum game. If one side wins, the other must lose.
We always seem willing to fight for what we value and want without sacrificing for what someone else values or wants.
Many politicians believe this is what we voters demand, to finally get what we want, generally, at the expense of the other side.
We'd remind them all: You exist as a matter of efficiency, to represent the millions you serve. Once you're elected, you represent all of us – not just your base.
If we're going to see this improve, it's going to need to start at the top of both parties and with us, the voters.
It can't be a game of chicken and who will blink first.
Sacrifice takes courage, and right now, we need courage.
KCCI welcomes responsible replies to this editorial.

I highly recommend 2 Dudes Moving. I have used the team for two moves (once into a townhouse and once into temporary storage). Each time, the scheduling process was very simple. The moving team arrived promptly and the guys were very professional & worked efficiently. They required little direction; it was clear they were an experienced team.
2 Dudes Moving were great moving my daughter from Lexington to Harlan. They were so polite and very careful with our furniture. Thank you so much for everything and will use you again. Jennifer and Carl Moody.
I had such a great experience with 2 Dudes Moving! I needed (very) last minute help and they were able to make it happen. My furniture was well taken care of and the movers were fast! Wouldn't use anyone else!
Friendly, professional staff. Quick and efficient local move. I would highly recommend

A commentary by a former Lake Flatonian and a response by a native San Antonioan in the Rivard Report made me think of my own feelings towards my adopted city of San Antonio. As a newcomer to the city, I have my "challenges' with the lack of density, the suburbansprawl, big truck culture, food/grocery options and a certain levels of convenience I was accustomed to in Portland. However, on the flip side, this city has (at least) three advantages: 1. Amaziing life! It has a vibrancy, creativity and "folksy" friendliness that is so much at the core of this place. From the store clerks to the people you meet on the streets, the positive vibe of the citizens here is quite infectious. I hope as the city grows that this does not get lost. 2. Development in the core. Working downtown I can see the evolution of the city right before my eyes. The development around the city (the River extension, Pearl, Southtown, etc.) will have a significant and positive impact on the livability quotient of San Antonio.The bike share program, which I recently signed up for, is quite a success and seems to be expanding . 3.

Supreme Court of Montana
May 31, 2018
IN THE MATTER OF IAN CHRISTOPHERSON, An Attorney at Law, Respondent.
File No. 18-066
Michael W. Cotter Chief Disciplinary Counsel Office of
Disciplinary Counsel
Office of Disciplinary Counsel for the State of Montana
("ODC") charges Ian Christopherson with
professional misconduct as follows.
1. Jan
Christopherson ("Christopherson") was admitted to
the practice of law in the State of Montana in 1979, at which
time he took the oath required for admission, wherein he
agreed to abide by the Rules of Professional Conduct, the
Disciplinary Rules adopted by the Montana Supreme Court, and
the highest standards of honesty, justice and morality,
including, but not limited to, those outlined in parts 3 and
4 of Chapter 61, Title 37, Montana Code Annotated.
2. The
Montana Supreme Court has approved and adopted the Montana
Rules of Professional Conduct ("MRPC"), governing
the ethical conduct of attorneys licensed to practice in the
State of Montana, which Rules were in effect at all times
mentioned in this Complaint.
3. By
Order filed May 29, 2018 (attached as Exhibit 1), the Montana
Supreme Court, pursuant to Rule 23B, MRLDE (2018), determined
that Christopherson's convictions of two counts of felony
tax evasion affect his ability to practice law. The Court
ordered that Christopherson be placed on interim suspension
from the practice of law effective immediately and pending
final disposition of a disciplinary proceeding predicated
upon the September 23, 2011 convictions of two counts of
felony tax evasion. The Court directed ODC to promptly
prepare and file a formal complaint against Christopherson
based on the felony convictions.
Based on information and belief, Christopherson has not
practiced law since his sentencing in federal court, which
occurred on December 17, 2012. On July 3, 2013, the Montana
State Bar suspended Christopherson for non-payment of dues
and his license to practice law has remained in a suspended
status since that time.
5. On
September 23, 2011, Christopherson was convicted by jury of
two counts of felony tax evasion, in violation of 26 U.S.C.
§ 7201, in the United States District Court, District of
Nevada.[1] Following trial and prior to sentencing, a
Presentence Investigation Report was ordered, but it is not
available to ODC at this time. Judgment was entered December
17, 2012, followed by an Amended Judgment dated May 5, 2014.
(Exhibits 2 and 3). On December 17, 2012, the United States
District Court for the District of Nevada sentenced
Christopherson to certain terms and conditions, including but
not limited to the following:
a. He was sentenced to 33 months in federal prison with 3
years of supervised release on each count to be served
b. He was ordered to pay a $200 fine and restitution to the
Internal Revenue Service in the amount of $728, 786.14.
c. The standard conditions of supervision were imposed as
well as special conditions of supervision. The special
conditions included, in part:
1. You shall be prohibited from incurring new credit charges,
opening additional lines of credit, or negotiating or
consummating any financial contracts without the approval of
the probation officer.
2. You shall provide the probation officer access to any
requested financial information, including personal income
tax returns, authorization for release of credit information,
and any other business financial information in which you
have a control or interest.
3. You shall cooperate and arrange with the Internal Revenue
Service to pay all past and present taxes, interest, and
penalties owed. You shall file timely, accurate, and lawful
income tax returns and ...

text: Quentin Tarantino soundtracks are often as deliriously exciting as the films themselves and Death Proof is no exception to the rule. His half of the exploitation double-bill Grindhouse concerns a serial killer called Stuntman Mike who offs girls with his indestructible car -- a blend of no less than three B-movie staples that provides a perfect vehicle for a perfect soundtrack, which Death Proof comes pretty close to being. Given the inspirations behind this stylized exploitation flick, it should come as no surprise that this soundtrack also borrows heavily from the '60s and '70s, digging up a bunch of forgotten soul, pop, rock, surf, and soundtrack songs that aren't commonly heard. There are some familiar names here -- whether it's composers Jack Nitzsche and Ennio Morricone or soul singers Joe Tex and Eddie Floyd -- but the closest this comes to familiar territory is T. Rex's glam staple "Jeepster" and maybe Smith's one-shot wonder "Baby It's You." But the pleasure of this soundtrack is precisely how all these little-known songs create their own fantastical spin on the late '60s and '70s, just like how Tarantino does it within the film itself. According to this, it was a time when the Coasters turned "Down in Mexico" into spacey, funky doo wop, when Dave Dee, Dozy, Bich & Tich turned out fizzy pop pleasures like "Hold Tight" and when Pacific Gas & Electric turned "Staggolee" into a psychedelic pimp. Thow in a down-n-dirty Willy DeVille number and the girl power of April March's "Chick Habit," and this is turns into an addictive record -- one that's perfect for long, dark drives or just about any other kind of good time you could name. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

"Fifty Shades" is not on my list of "must-see" movies of 2015 and for only one reason.
One person who is beyond psyched about the February 2015 release of 50 Shades of Grey? My mom. She told me several times that she read the book and is going to see it the day it hits the multiplex. You know who won't be accompanying her? Me.
I am one of few women out there with absolutely zero interest in seeing this film. It's not that I don't get the hype and the hoopla. I do. A film and its source material about BDSM seems like pretty racy stuff. But it's not enticing to me. I flipped through a few pages of my mom's copy when visiting her and it didn't pull me in. It's BDSM-lite or softcore porn for moms. It's a Harlequin romance for the millennial era.
The psychology and physicality of the BDSM world is way different than the marketing and the hype behind it. It's not like a movie studio can promote a film where scrotums get stomped on by a woman wearing spiked stripper stilettos. On the surface, that's a physical and extreme act, but it's also the manifestation of something much more psychologically motivated. It's about a true master and slave relationship.
And if I am going to invest my time reading or viewing something that explores an alternative lifestyle or a fringe counterculture, I don't want a glossing over. I want to get to the marrow of things. To me, Fifty Shades Of Grey is a vanilla and fluff take on BDSM. How ironic is that?
Some of my friends frequent FetLife, a real BDSM lifestyle site. Some doms and subs are hardcore into latex wear and of truly giving of yourself to serve your master. That includes everything from walking their dog to letting them have their sexual way with you. I poked around — no pun — on the site once and while it was more than intriguing, it was not something I wanted to explore in my life. But it was eye-opening because the rules and specifications left nothing to interpretation.
The 50 Shades of Grey doesn't intrigue me. It feels like a typical cat-and-mouse romance or relationship Darwinism. It still feels like the basic thrill of the chase and wanting what you can't have, with some spanking throwing into the mix. Christian Grey has issues and can't let anyone in, and while he tries to put up BDSM parameters with Anastasia Steele, he eventually realizes he can't live without her and it's no longer about wanting to dominate and control her. Zzzz.
Poorly penned erotica, which is the prevailing criticism of the book, doesn't seem to be the place to explore the depth and breadth of giving yourself up to someone physically, so you can psychologically reliniquish control, be relieved of whatever pressures you have in your life and truly let go, which to many practicioners, is an act of love. That dynamic is way more interesting to me, but 50 Shades seems like it's more about a man wanting to control a woman despite his fear of commitment. Just sayin'.
I'm sure Christian and Anastasia fanatics will come at me and accuse me of ignorance and of throwing shade at their beloved Fifty Shades because I only flipped through a few pages. But art has to be magnetically attractive for me to invest in it; a good and compelling book is one you can't put down. I was barely interesting in picking this one up. I wasn't gripped.
Instead, you can find me wirh my nose buried in The Encyclopedia of Serial Killers.

Gita 17.22
adeśa-kāle yad dānam apātrebhyaś ca dīyate
asatkṛitam avajñātaṁ tat tāmasam udāhṛitam
adeśa-kāle – The county's region/land dream is of
yad -when
dānam -one donates or gives to
apātrebhyas – the unworthy/undeserving that we fear
ca – also
dīyate – the light you offer in the form of charity
asatkṛitam – done performed for the unreal
avajñātaṁ – having awareness of this knowledge/wisdom unto
tat – that
tāmasam – ignorance in us
udāhṛitam – is said to be an illustration of this
Full meaning:
The country's region/land dream of is when one donates or gives to the unworthy/undeserving that we fear also, is the light you offer in the form of charity done performed for the unreal. Having awareness of this knowledge/wisdom from that ignorance in us is said to be an illustration of this.
What does it say in Gita?
The gift that is made at an improper time and place, to an unworthy recipient, unceremoniously and in a slighting manner that is said to be the nature of Tamas.
I do not believe the gifts are given this way, it is not without thoughtfulness. The nature of gift giving hopefully it is not for the unceremonious act that is happening in the nature of tamas or mode of ignorance.
The words are jumbled up again to draw meaning. After adesa-kale comes apatrebhyah?
There is no word for gift, "danam" stands for charity.
When you are reading Sanskrit from left to right you should be able to close your eyes to what it is you are reading, for example adesa kale yad danam to say country's region or land dream is of when one donates. So starting a verse with a gift that is made at a improper place in time I don't think is what this Sanskrit verse means.
asatkrtam- sat being real and asat being unreal and krtam is what is done or performed.
avajnatam- used in Telugu as avajna.
apatrebhyas – I used the Telugu word apatramu and bhyas. I want to add here just because a word is spelled differently and absorbed in other regional languages it does not change the root of the word is sanskrit.
If in chapter 1, text 42 there is a word patanti which means fall down, there must be truth to what I am doing. Patanti resembles lot like the Telugu word for fall down. It is not said or enunciated the same way or spelled in the same exact way as in the Gita text. Sanskrit is also a extinct language, it is no longer spoken. Telugu's alone all do not speak the language the same way. I gave this as a example to say there is truth to what I am doing.

This page aims to help you remove Html Paypal-b Phish. Our removal instructions work for every version of Windows.
The Trojan horse malware group is the most frequently encountered malware category in existence and if you have recently discovered a virus of this type on your computer, you should definitely read the following write-up. Such a threat could cause very serious damage to the system if not removed on time and that's why, in the next lines, we will explain to you how to deal with it. In fact, we will try to reveal the specifics of one recently reported Trojan infection called Html Paypal-b Phish which seems to be bothering a growing number of web users. This piece of malware can be found in various web locations, oftentimes hidden in harmful transmitters which are hard to detect without a proper antivirus program. The contamination normally happens with one wrong click or an interaction with the carrier of the Trojan and, unfortunately, oftentimes no symptoms would appear to reveal it. This is exactly what helps Html Paypal-b Phish hide deep inside the system and perform the criminal deeds it has been programmed for. In fact, one of the primary characteristics of this type of malware is its stealthiness. The versatility is the other thing that is really typical for the representatives of the Trojan Horse malware category. The Trojan could be effectively used for a wide range of malicious tasks and oftentimes it is unclear what the exact purpose of such a virus might be in a given instance. You are more likely to face the negative consequences of the attack before you realize that you have been actually infected. You are really lucky to have found Html Paypal-b Phish on your system because these types of viruses are known for their ability to hide well and bury deep inside the victim's machine for months and sometimes even years! Luckily, once you know what you are dealing with, you will be able to remove it without wasting any time. In the paragraph below, we have published a detailed Removal Guide with instructions on how to locate and remove Html Paypal-b Phish from the PC.

What possible damage may a Trojan like Html Paypal-b Phish cause?
The Trojan horse infections can work pretty well as tools of data theft. They could steal any information that is kept on the infected computer: passwords, banking details, credit or debit card numbers or login credentials could all get acquired by a Trojan virus. Such sensitive information could be copied and transferred to the hacker's remote servers without any visible red flags to indicate the presence of the malware.
Another very common use of threats such as Html Paypal-b Phish is the distribution of other viruses. Very often, the Trojans could act as a backdoor for some other nasty infection, be they Ransomware, Spyware or other similar computer threats. They can easily create vulnerabilities in the system, block the firewall or the antivirus software and exploit the weaknesses of outdated programs in order to launch other harmful processes in the background. It is not uncommon that the victims may lose some valuable data due to file destruction or corruption of certain files because the Trojan may mess with them. In some cases, such malware could provide its criminal creators with remote access to the machine and let them modify, control and destroy certain Registry Keys, system processes, software and files. This, in turn, can lead to an overall instability of the computer as well as to sudden crashes, sluggishness, unresponsiveness and some unusually high CPU or RAM usage for the background processes set by the hackers.
Is there any effective protection against Trojans?
Knowing what may happen if an infection like Html Paypal-b Phish sneaks inside the system, you now understand why it is so important to remove the malware immediately. What is more, once the computer is cleared, it is of utmost importance that you prevent such contaminations in the future. This should start with investing in a reliable antivirus program. Nowadays, these programs could be the only tools that could help you catch a Trojan that is hiding in the system. In fact, in most of the cases, they could detect the malware source and offer you the necessary steps to have it removed on time. Of course, staying away from sketchy and insecure web locations, fishy websites, fake pop-ups and misleading links is always important. Those are pretty obvious and very common sources of various security hazards including Ransomware, different Rootkits, Worms and other similar nasty malware.

It won't be very long before the final race is run as part of this year's long awaited Irish Greyhound Derby, but long before the final race is staged, the heats all have to be staged, and as somebody who does fancy betting on any of the greyhounds to win the Derby outright, you need to be placing your bets sooner rather than later.
As far as the best betting site to place such a bet at, it is Betfred who are renowned for going that little bit extra but the enhanced odds they do tend to offer on their ante post betting markets, so read on to find out where the smart money is going on this major greyhound racing event!
It will probably be the case that if you are planning on betting on a handful of greyhounds that make up this event, you will be most interested to discover which are the three most fancied and most backed greyhounds.
Therefore the three greyhounds that are currently the first, second and third favourites are Droopys Verve at 8/1, Lenson Blinder at 9/1 and Slippy Cian at 12/1, but remember their odds are not going to stay as high as they are right now if they make it through their initial set of heats!
High Odds on Each-Way Bets
Betfred will give you some of the best each-way terms on the Irish Greyhound Derby, for they are paying out to 6 places and offer one quarter of the outright winning odds on such bets too, and at 16/1 are three greyhounds worth an each-way punt are Droopys Davy, Magical Bale and Borna Gin.
There is certainly some value to be had when backing the likes of Jaytee Taylor, Skywalker Logan, Cash Is King and Whoops Jack at 25/1, but those odds may not be around for very long, much more so if they get through their initial heats in the event.
An Outsider May Just Win
I would never discount the chances of any of the outsiders to win the Irish Greyhound Derby, however it will probably be the case it won't be one of the rank outsiders that will win but one of those located in the middle section of the betting markets!
As such there will be plenty of value if you are [prepared to study the form of some of those outsiders, and a few that spring to mind based on their track skills include greyhounds such as Cabra Hurricane at 28/1, Rockybay Foley and Stonepark Noel both currently pencilled dup at odds of 33/1.
For those of you interested in some much higher odds, but risky bets, then it could be worth having a few smaller valued bets on greyhound such as Clonbrien Hero and Frisky Luck both at 40/1, or even trying you luck on one of the 50/1 shots who could come up trumps, and two that could be worth a very speculative gamble on are Panther and Blue East.

Living in a Blackout
Picture yourself in London's Parliament Square just after 10:30 on a Wednesday morning, surrounded by red brick Neo-Gothic gingerbread palaces where the United Kingdom's legislature gathers to squabble.
Suddenly a column of around 300 police officers clad in high-viz lime-green tunics (with no batons, shields, firearms or tanks — how weird is that?) marches into sight. The cops surround the square and start dismantling barricades. It seems inevitable that they will succeed in their mission: to clear a London tourist mecca of several hundred motley protesters and their alarming banners. "Tell the truth!" "Ecological emergency!" "Extinction rebellion!"
The cops arrest about 50 rebels and lead them away. The remaining rebel forces lie down in on the cobblestones and await handcuffs. Suddenly, music! The XR Samba Band marches into the square, drums blazing. Dancers gather in their wake. The bobbies retreat. Rebels retake the roadblocks. Disorder is restored.
I'm not making this up. It happened on Wednesday, April 15, about two weeks before the news will reach you. As I write this, similar scenes are underway on Waterloo Bridge, Oxford Circus and Marble Arch, along with smaller protests in Wellington, New Zealand; Adelaide, Australia; Quebec, Paris and even New York City.
These actions are on the scale of Vietnam War protests or anti-nuclear demonstrations of past decades. As of Friday evening, April 19, London police had arrested 682 rebels. Why haven't we heard about XR? For the most part, U.S. media has ignored it. Try googling Extinction Rebellion. What do you see? The British press, is all over it. Of course this story is about their tourist attractions and commuters. But on this side of the pond, very few hits pop up. The Boston Globe ran a piece after XR activists invaded their lobby. The New York Times published a couple of short reports during XR's Week of Action, one to let readers know that actress Emma Thompson had showed up. Otherwise, as far as the center of the media universe is concerned, it's pretty much ho hum.
To be fair, we have been mesmerized by the antics of our White House capo and his pet prosecutor, the Redactor General. The Mueller report just got spun out. We have 448 pages of evidence to devour or ignore, outraged legislators to stir us up and the NBA finals to distract us from the Distractor in Chief.
The truth is that we just don't get it. Climate change should be more real for people who live three hours north of Paradise, California, than it is for people who are camping out in Parliament Square. But that's not the case. XR is recklessly pulling fire alarms. We are doing our best to stay calm and carry on while the 12-year clock ticks down. In this case, staying calm is a bad idea.
The impending end of civilization should focus the mind. It doesn't seem to be working that way.

Hoekstra: "We threw Mubarak under the bus"
In an interview with Newsmax, Michigan GOP Senate candidate Pete Hoekstra — speaking for a certain hard-line realist minority — offers this assessment of President Barack Obama's Middle East policy:
This has been a real mishmash of U.S. policy in the Middle East. In Egypt, within two weeks we threw Mubarak under the bus. In Libya, nobody knew where we were and what our position was. And then [Syrian leader] Bashar Assad — until four to six weeks ago we were calling him the face of reform. The reality is that Assad has never reformed anything, but we were supporting him. Mubarak stood with us and maintained peace with Israel for more than 20 years, yet we threw him under the bus. The Obama administration has been all over the map in terms of how we deal with our friends and with our enemies. There is not a consistent, coherent policy.

|Fwd: Planned to add sshexec path for ant 1.7.1?
|Thu, 13 Sep 2007 21:16:01 GMT
Please do not use direct e-mail, please send direct to the ant-mailing list - or update the bugzilla report with a ping. The patch looks fine (check for close and not eof), but I would defer to Rob to give it the thumbs up . I do not use the SSH tasks myself. Peter ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dario Bahena Tapia <email@example.com> Date: Sep 13, 2007 9:18 PM Subject: Planned to add sshexec path for ant 1.7.1? To: firstname.lastname@example.com Hallo, I am having, as others, just the same problem described here: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43092 I can see there was a proposed patch, are there any plans to include it in current 1.7.1? That would be great, so I can download current snapshot and have it available now (meanwhile official 1.7.1 is distributed). I know, in theory, I could apply patch myself and keep on working with that local copy. However, my boss does not allow me to do custom ant modifications, he wants me to use just the version which comes out of the box (however, he can agree downloading subversion snapshots, if the change is expected to stay for next official release ... which is the case of bug fixes, I presume). Even maybe, it could be the case that you do not agree completely with the patch but have a better option, which fulfills the quality standards of Apache projects... have seen it in past ;-} Either proposed patch, or your own will be fine for us, the mortal users. Thank you very much for your help. Regards, Dario. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com

Foot tattoos are rave among young girls. There are many Cute Foot Tattoo Ideas For Girls. Their popularity has increased considerably in last few years. The reasons are obvious. The foot tattoos are cute. They look very eye-catching when peaking out of your jeans, skirts and bottoms. They can give the girls the individuality they are looking for. The foot gives a flat area for tattoo artists to work their creativity. There was a time when tattoos were considered only for men. However, with changing mindset, more and more women are becoming open to new ideas to express their individuality. Foot tattoo is one such way in which women can express their distinctiveness.
However, getting a foot tattoo is a daring accomplishment. Foot tattoos are more painful. They also need more care than other body parts. Also, overtime, the ink of the foot tattoo can blur considerably. There are a lot of other common problems that come with foot tattoos. However, there are certain pros as well. There is something incredibly sultry about the foot tattoos. There are huge numbers of small designs that can be tattooed on your foot. These small designs look cute, elegant and striking. Also, they are easy to hide, when you are not in the mood to show off your tattoo.

Amsterdam Falafelshop Closes the Deal on Nine More Franchise Shops
A young restaurant franchise that began in Washington DC with word-of-mouth so strong it brings people from as far away as New York and Richmond, VA., has closed deals on nine more shops in the last 12 months, including in Boston, MA (4), Washington DC (2), and MD & VA (3).
The first 'Sister-Shop' (franchise) was welcomed with rave reviews in Davis Square, Somerville Massachusetts in July (a community in the Greater Boston Area), and has been busy ever since, drawing accolades from its new neighborhood; thumbs-up from the Boston Globe and the Phantom Gourmet; and inspiring widespread enthusiasm for additional shops throughout the eastern seaboard.
"The interest in our franchise offering has been overwhelming as our concept embraces today's food trends, requires a relatively low startup investment, has an easy-to-execute, limited menu format with low ingredient costs — making this concept very compelling to prospective franchisees," says Richard Sharoff of FranPoint Partners.
The Amsterdam Falafelshop is a fast casual restaurant that offers top-it-yourself falafel sandwiches and bowls with the customers' choice of 21 different sauces and toppings, Dutch-style fries in cones and rich brownies. The shop with its edgy, international vibe was inspired by the falafel "street food" that is so popular throughout Amsterdam and other European cities.
For the uninitiated: falafel is made from ground chickpeas, spiced with coriander, cumin, and fresh parsley, garlic and onions, formed into a ball and deep fried, much like a spiced hush-puppy. What most people do not realize from tasting it, is that falafel is actually a vegan food, and the Amsterdam Falafelshop's many toppings cater to a wide variety of dietary regimens while bursting with flavor, zing and heat. One of the benefits of the newly launched franchise is that their falafel recipe is gluten-free, and the bowls liberate the customer from the constraints of pita bread, a particularly timely point with the rise of gluten and wheat allergies.
The first shop opened 8 years ago, with the franchising program beginning two years ago, kicking off an exciting journey for the founders, Scott and Arianne Bennett. Amsterdam Falafelshop has seen steady growth even during the down economy. "People are still eating out in this economy; they're just being more selective and cost-conscious of where they go, and that works in our favor," explained President and CEO Arianne Bennett, "where an Amsterdam Falafelshop customer can get a full meal for between $5 and $10."
2012's Franchise sales coincided with the increasing demand for Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dining choices. High-impact flavor profiles distinguish this interactive food experience.
The increasing demand for Middle Eastern and Mediterranean flavors is attributable to everything from consumers being more global and adventurous in their dining choices, exposure to more exotic experiences through television, and increased consumer attention to nutritious eating with 73 percent of adults reporting they try to eat healthier now at restaurants than they did two years ago according to the National Restaurant Association.
The Amsterdam Falafelshop experience combines a hip, European environment with a more nutritious food offering, melding the comfort of fried food with the nutrition of bountiful vegetables that nourish the spirit.

The surprising momentum with which the economy ended last year likely carried over into this year, and continued to generate thousands of jobs through February, according to analysts who caution, however, that government restraint and rising interest rates will take the steam out of the recovery later this year.
Still, reports this week are expected to show that Canada posted its second straight monthly trade surplus in January, and that the economy generated up to 30,000 new jobs last month.
The Friday jobs report from Statistics Canada has taken on added political significance, being the last before the March 22 federal budget, and possibly even the last before an election could be triggered.
The good news for the Harper government and Canadians in general is that continued job growth is anticipated for a few months at least.
The bad news is that austerity measures by federal and provincial governments trying to reduce their deficits, plus expected interest rate increases by the Bank of Canada, are expected to weigh down the economy and push the jobless rate back up after mid-year.
"Canada's unemployment rate should drift lower in coming months," said Krishen Rangasamy, economist at CIBC which is projecting a 30,000 increase in employment in February and an easing in the unemployment rate to 7.7 per cent from 7.8.
"But with an anticipated economic slowdown in the second half of the year resulting from tighter fiscal and monetary policies, the jobless rate should head back up again and close the year well above seven per cent," Rangasamy added.
That's a risk the minority Harper government will take into account when deciding whether to use the March 22 budget to trigger or delay an election call.
But in the meantime, the government can take comfort from continued good economic news, including Thursday's January merchandise trade report, which analysts expect will show a second straight monthly surplus following a string of deficits.
Economically, this week's trade report is more important than the jobs report, said Douglas Porter, economist at BMO Capital Markets, which projects that Canada exported $2.5 billion more worth of goods than it imported.
"Following an absolutely jaw-dropping 9.7 per cent spike in exports in December, the fastest monthly rise in 30 years, which swung the trade balance into a hefty $3 billion surplus, the largest in more than two years, the pressing issue is whether it was for real, or a one-month wonder."
What's especially important, is that the Bank of Canada has warned that an improvement in Canada's trade performance will be needed this year to offset the drag on the economy from belt-tightening by deeply indebted governments and consumers and the dampening impact of rising interest rates plus Ottawa's tighter mortgage lending regulations on the housing market.
However, as with the overall economy, the expected weakness in housing won't be evident in this week's reports on building permits Monday, housing construction starts on Tuesday or new housing prices on Wednesday.
In fact, analysts at TD Economics are projecting that home-building starts increased slightly last month to an annual pace of 175,000.
"Starts could find additional momentum in the coming months, as the recently announced changes in mortgage regulations may pull some activity forward," TD noted. "The exceptionally accommodative level of mortgage rates will also provide additional support to the housing market, though this pillar of support will begin to fade in the second half of the year once the Bank of Canada resumes its tightening cycle."
But it could be more than government austerity and higher interest rates weighing on the economy later this year.
The rise in oil prices, not to mention food prices, poses a major risk to the global economy, including the U.S economy, which is Canada's main export market.
"Today's elevated prices are expected to slow, but not derail global growth, though all bets are off if oil prices are sent sharply higher as a result of potential supply disruptions," according to Scotia Capital economists.

2016 Volume 111 Issue 2 Pages 89-103
Zircon and monazite in ultrahigh temperature (UHT) metamorphic rocks from the Rauer Islands of Prydz Bay in East Antarctica were investigated in terms of U–Th–Pb and rare earth elements (REE) chemistry along with textural context. All five analyzed samples, three from the Mather Paragneiss UHT unit and two from the host orthogneiss unit yield 522–517 Ma concordant zircon ages, with older protolith/inherited zircon ages of 3268 and 2800–2400 Ma along with highly discordant Mesoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic ages. Our data confirm the Archaean protolith age for the host orthogneiss surrounding the UHT Mather Paragneiss. The Archaean and Mesoproterzoic components of the Rauer Islands were not amalgamated in the Rauer Tectonic Event at 1030–990 Ma, and deposition of the Mather Paragneiss was considered at some time after the Rauer Tectonic Event. In contrast to the well–defined 520 Ma ages obtained from the zircons in the UHT rocks, monazite grains measured by electron microprobe show a distinct internal zonation, from 580–560 Ma dark–backscattered electron image (BSE) cores enriched in middle rare earth elements (MREE) and heavy rare earth elements (HREE) to 550–520 Ma mid–BSE mantles and 510–500 Ma bright–BSE rims. From the chemical and textural evidence we infer that the MREE–HREE–rich 580–560 Ma monazite cores may have formed through the decomposition of garnet during decompression just after the UHT event, whereas the MREE–HREE–depleted 550–500 Ma monazite grains/rims formed or recrystallized in reactions associated with subsequent extensive hydration during the upper–amphibolite to granulite–facies main Prydz Tectonic Event, which also caused marked recrystallization of zircon. The above data strongly support the interpretation that the UHT metamorphism occurred prior to 590–580 Ma.

A man identified as Ravi Kumar died on Tuesday night after acquiring treatment from doctor's husband who is a government teacher in Yacharam.
Going into details, Ravi who is a labourer went to an RMP doctor as he was suffering from severe body pains. As the doctor was present in the hospital, her husband Narasimha gave an injection and tonic to Ravi.
A few minutes after returning home, Ravi collapsed and fell unconscious. The family members immediately took him to a nearby hospital where doctors declared him dead.
Fumed over the issue, the family members staged a protest at the doctor's house demanding their arrest.
No complained has been registered yet.

The Annapurna Region:
The area runs North of Pokhara extending to the Tibetan border. It covers 2600 square kilometers and includes the Annapurna peaks, the famous Annapurna Sanctuary and significant section of the Kali Gandaki Valley. Many of the peaks are over 7000 meters in height. The conservation area is supported by the Annapurna Conservation Area Project (ACAP), a nonprofit organization funded by donations and trusts. ACAPs primary objectives are to improve local standards of living, to protect the environment and to develop more sensitive forms of tourism. This is the most popular trekking region in Nepal, especially for individual trekkers, and this influx of visitors has increased demands for heating and hot water and lead to increased deforestation, litter and sanitation problems. In response, ACAP has supported a number of projects, such as forestry nurseries, introducing wood-saving technologies (e.g. efficient stoves), banning fires altogether in certain areas, and building rubbish bins and latrines. Many problems still remain, and it is important that trekkers cooperate with these initiatives to protect the environment.
Treks around the Annapurna Himal are undoubtedly the best in the world, not only for the grandeur of the mountains and thick natural forests, but for the variety of fascinating ethnic groups in the area (Bhotiya, Tibetan, Tamang, Magar, Gurung, Thakali and others). Pack animals share the main trails with trekkers carrying in goods and packing out empty bottles and fruit and fruit products. The area is easily accessible from Pokhara. An air-strip at Jomsom allows trekkers to trek to Jomsom and fly out, or vice versa, or fly to Jomsom and trek north to Muktinath and Kagbeni bordering the high rain shadow area of Mustang and the Kali Gandaki River Valley. But, given the fickle weather, flights are often difficult to confirm from Jomsom (which is why we recommend flying in and trekking out). Many lodges are located near the Jomsom landing strip if you prefer to take a chance and fly out of Jomsom.
The ABC trek takes you deep into the Annapurna Himal. Machhapuchhare (6993m), which can be seen from Pokhara stands in the center. You will also be able to have a 360-degree panoramic view including Annapurna 1, South Face Machhapuchhare and North Face. Along the way, you will be visiting Gurung villages with houses of slate roofs. You are advised to be cautious of high altitude sickness if you are sensitive to altitude. The ABC trek climbs up to 4130 meters.
In March and April each year we recommend several treks to take advantage of the flowering rhododendrons (Nepal's national flower) against the backdrop of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri peaks. Mountain views are spectacular anytime of the year (October-May), but spring is particularly beautiful with rhododendrons in full bloom at the higher altitudes. This area offers the best in Nepal lodge trekking with excellent facilities for eating and sleeping in local lodges.

I believe a good pot can make food taste better. Drinking from a handmade mug makes the experience more human and personal. Its important to let the material and its human manipulation shine. I draw inspiration from Exmoor and the sea.
I make Devonshire Slipware it's the perfect medium for me. Its roots in North Devon are what drew me to it. Its humble origins of the everyday medieval pot to its vibrant place in todays studio pottery. Its undoubtedly made from clay. Its liquid nature allows me to capture movements in ways that other forms of ceramics can not and its colours' have richness and depth.
My work is wheel thrown and slab built. Pots are to be used so forms are simple and Robust. Rims are rolled for strength and to mirror the chunky ring at the bottom which is used for slipping and glazing. Handles are pulled from the pot as if they had grown there. Slip is dipped, poured, brushed, trailed and splashed with animated movements. Colour is using oxides and glazes. Pots are then once fired in a electric kiln from 1100c – 1140c.

Shipping & Logistics
Importers advised on how to cut SGR transport costsTuesday, October 9, 2018 18:31
Kenyan importers have been advised to utilise the Through Bill of Landing (TBL) to avert cargo demurrage costs while using the Standard Gauge Rail (SGR).
The Kenya Ship Agents Association (KSAA) Chief Executives Juma Tellah said compared to the Merchant Haulage Product (MHP), the TBL is a better option in the rail transport.
In the TBL import mode, the shipping line takes responsibility to transport cargo to the final destination, while in the MHP mode, responsibility of the shipping line ends upon discharge of the container at the Port.
"Using the TBL, the importer pays the shipping line sea freight and rail fees up to the designated depot. Liability in terms of container/cargo damage or delays between the point of receipt and the point of destination is taken up by the shipping line," said Mr Tellah. For instance, if a cargo is coming from China, what the importer pays covers its handling to the Port of Mombasa and further delivery to a hinterland location.
In the case of the SGR, the hinterland location will be the Embakasi Internal Container Depot (ICD). On the other hand, if the same cargo is coming from China and the importer opts for the MPH, the shipping lines responsibility ceases once the cargo lands at the Port of Mombasa. From here the consignee takes delivery of their goods and is given a time frame in which to return the empty container to the shipping line.
"The contract of international carriage of goods by sea, has set clear guidelines on where the obligations of the shipping line commences and ends," Mr Tellah said.
The government embarked on a move to drive cargo to the Mombasa-Nairobi SGR, which was completed last year at a cost of Sh327 billion.
Among government's directives was that all un-nominated containers belonging to upcountry importers be transported on the SGR to the Embakasi ICD for final clearance.
Mr Tellah said importers should use "the better option" -TBL- to avoid the resultant penalties leading to losses in their respective businesses.
In the eight months to August 2018, 936 SGR trains operated between the Port of Mombasa and Embakasi ICD carrying a total of 95,212 TEU's.
Out of this, 70,151TEUs, accounting for 73.7 per cent were on TBL, while Merchant Haulage accounted for the balance of 25,061 TEUs.
The SGR service recently received a boost when the Kenya Railways entered into an agreement with Pacific International Lines (PIL) Kenya Ltd, whose headquarters are based in Singapore. In the agreement, PIL (K) Ltd committed to support the service and continually market the use of the Madaraka Freight Service as the preferred mode of transport.

text: How Learning Thermostats are Different from Programmable Thermostats Posted December 4, 2018 Your thermostat is a huge factor in how much you're paying on your utility bills. Merely programming your thermostat for stretches when you're sleeping or not at home can make a large impact without negatively affecting your comfort levels. Depending on the type of programmable thermostat you purchase, you might benefit from a lot of additional features. At Strine's Heating & Air Conditioning, we've got several programmable thermostats to meet your needs—from the most simple models to the newest learning thermostats. How will you know what is best for your space? First, take the time to understand the difference between basic programmable thermostats and advanced learning models. Each of these options can help you save energy and money, but you'll need to select which features are most important to your home comfort. All programmable thermostats will allow you to schedule your days to control temperatures when you're routinely there and gone. Depending on the model you pick, you may be able to enter one schedule, which you may end up overriding on days you are actually home. Some models will permit you to program your weekdays on one schedule and your weekends on a separate schedule. You'll also want to look at the number of periods you can select each day. For instance, will you want the temps different when you sleep, when you wake up, when you're at work and when you are home in the evening? Confirm that the thermostat you select can accommodate your needs. For some homeowners, being able to arrange a regular schedule (or two) and override it when needed is enough. But if you want more flexibility, it's probably time to buy a smart thermostat. A smart thermostat lets you completely customize a heating and cooling schedule for every weekday. Flexibility isn't the only benefit that smart thermostats provide, but they're also Wi-Fi enabled so you can regulate your home's temperature regardless of where you are. Some selections of smart thermostats take innovation even further—these are called "learning thermostats." Learning thermostats do everything a regular smart thermostat can do, but they can also learn from your behaviors and monitor your heating and cooling schedules based on your actual daily activity. Some models don't even need to be programmed—you just turn them on and give them time to figure everything out on their own over the span of a few days. So, no matter what your heating and cooling desires are, Strine's Heating & Air Conditioning will help you find the perfect thermostat for your home and budget. You'll get to enjoy ultimate home comfort with potential energy savings. Call us at 717-383-4479 to learn more, or schedule an appointment with us online. Back To Blog

My new favorite website is www.woot.com. Every day they sell only ONE item. It's usually a techno gadget, like universal battery charger for laptops, a DVR DVD recorder, and last week they had Microsoft ZUNEs on for 95.00 ( normally they are about 250-300.00) they are coming out with newer version in a month or so so they are making way and reducing prices. Even still- I had NEVER seen one for that price before. I just bought my Creative ZEN 4 gig for 125.00 last week.
My husband managed to snag himself one last week when they were 99.00 at Woot. I was quasi-kicking myself for not getting one for the kids.. At 30 gigs they can hold a ton of movies and audio books.. and they have output to connect to TV so it would be good for long drives to Florida and camping trips. It has a 3″ screen. ( Bigger than newest Ipod ano which is 2.5)
So all week i have been annoyed that I didn't get one.. and YEAH! They went on sale today for 79.00 ( okay, just the ugly brown ones) BUT you can still get a black or whatever color skin to hide the ugliness and save 20.00..
Get the 79.00 Brown Zune here http://www.woot.com/
I was looking at crappy MP3 player for 79.00 so was ridiculous not to get this one…
You can get the deal here- www.woot.com but deal ends tonight at midnight or when they sell out.
Note- I have ZERO affiliation with the site or Zone for that matter… this is just great deal.
You can still get black and white here for 99.00

From the best seat in the house
Last Friday was a typical 8-man football game at Lyle with 86 points scored and plenty of big plays. Lyle-Wishram scored on runs of 36, 28 and 40 yards plus an 80 yard kickoff return by Jacob Zeigler. Twin Valley had a 50 yard run and two long touchdowns called back by penalties. The big boys at Lyle-Wishram wore out the Wolfpack who called it quits with 2:45 left in the game.
Play of the week: B.J. Walter shedding tacklers on his way to a 47 yard touchdown against White Swan. Sorry I missed it, but I see him make runs like that every week. Tremendous strength and balance.
Must see game or match of the week:
Next Tuesday will be a key home volleyball match for Goldendale against Naches Va...
