Lesson # 2 for the 57-hour Southeast Asia Challenge: Patience is key. Smile and everything will be alright.
Time ticked. Every minute was important. Once lunch was finished, we walked towards the exit of the airport and approached the TransJogja Bus Station.
At the door of the small station, I saw the Bahasa Indonesia word: Masuk (which means "in." It's nice to know how their language was similar to our own Filipino language. In Filipino, "in" is translated as "PASOK" which means to enter).
The fare to Prambanan is 3,000 IDR (Php 14.17 or $0.32). With all our bags with us, Ate Macon and I stood at the station waiting for TransJogja Bus-1A Prambanan. We were the only foreigners there while the rest of the passengers were locals.
About 15 minutes after, the bus arrived. It's a coaster-type of vehicle. Thank God it's airconditioned! It was fun riding Yogyakarta's public vehicle. It gave me more insights about the locals' lives.
An old Indonesian couple smiled when they saw me taking photographs. Maybe, they were wondering: Why are they riding public transportation when most of the tourists are hiring vehicles?
Candi Prambanan (or Prambanan Temple- candi means temple), our first stop in Yogyakarta, was just 20 minutes away from the airport. The TransJogja bus dropped us at the station, which was meters away from the entrance to the Prambanan Temple.
Bechak (Indonesia's version of pedicab) and taxi drivers were offering us a ride but the gate seemed near. Being thrifty won over the comfort of traveling to our destination.
But there's a challenge: Candi Prambanan was on the other side of the road so we have to cross the main highway with our backpack and stroller. What could be more thrilling/scary than crossing the street without a pedestrian lane? Yes, they don't have any pedestrian lane. (It reminded me of my challenge in Vietnam as well). But we have survived and successfully reached the other side of the road.
What seemed near was far in reality. The positive thing about walking to Prambanan was stopping whenever we want to take photographs.
One of the street scenes that caught my interest was the architecture of the Masjid Raya Al Muttaqun, a mosque located at the south of the Prambanan Temple. Since it was not part of the itinerary and I'm not a Muslim, I just saw what's on the outside but saw this post of Fairuz, who wrote about the interiors and history of the mosque. (Just use Google Translate).
We continued our walk towards the gate. It took us around 10 minutes to the gate of the temple and another 10-minute walk to the ticket counter. We paid $13 (Php 552.00 or 117,000 IDR) as entrance fee to the Prambanan temple. The staff at the counter then directed us to the locker area, where we left our bags. Thank goodness! And the locker was free of charge.
An Indonesian with umbrellas then approached us. I thought she was selling old-looking umbrellas. The language barrier was there but then we learned that it was for rent and not for sale. For 5,000 IDR (Php 23.00 or $ 0.54), we were saved from possible heat stroke. It was scorching hot in Prambanan.
Reaching Prambanan Temple was tiring but when we saw the temples, we were rewarded.
Candi Prambanan was regarded as the biggest Hindu Temple in Southeast Asia and one of the most beautiful temples in the world. The UNESCO recognized it as a World Heritage Site in 1991. The temple traced back its history in the 10th Century.
Legend has it that the Prambanan Temple was made out of a desperate love of Prince Bandung to Loro Djonggrang. Theirs was a love-gone-wrong story.
The Prambanan Temple has three main temples dedicated to: Vishnu, Brahma and Shiva. Before getting to the primary yard where these temples were located, we saw the ruins caused by the 2006 earthquake that has struck Java.
After a few clicks, we moved to the main yard where the temples were.
The sculptures on the walls were believed to depict the story of the Ramayana. Here are the other sculptures that I saw.
I entered one of the temples. The entry point was narrow and dark. The first thing that I saw was the statue of Hindu god Brahma (the creator).
Goosebumps. I didn't stay long and went down.
We walked to a nearby tree to rest. Locals, whom I believe were clean-up staff of the park, started talking to us in Bahasa. We just smiled and told them that we're Filipinos. Filipinos have similar features with Indonesians. That's why most of the time, they thought that we're locals. They then pointed us to the exit.
From the exit, I saw Mt. Merapi, the most active volcano in Indonesia. We walked further and saw Prambanan in a different angle. It's picturesque in whatever angle you view it. But for me, I liked this view from the exit. It would make you want to come back.
Surely, I will come back, Prambanan. Next time, I want to see you when the sun is about to set and watch the Ramayana Ballet.
I took my last glance on this temple. And yes, it's definitely one of the most stunning temples in the world.
On our way back, we decided to take a bechak for the experience of riding one and hide from the sun. The drivers gave us high prices but we haggled hard until one of them agreed to 10,000 IDR (Php 46.00 or $1.08) for the two of us. So it's 5,000 IDR each (Php 23.00).
Whew! The challenge continues. Yes, we're taking another local ride from the Prambanan Station to Malioboro, where another adventure awaits us.

Mariah Yeater stands to gain much from being a statutory rapist
Why would a statutory rapist admit -- no, brag -- that she raped a boy?
Because she stands to gain more--lots and lots more--from statutorily raping a wealthy teen boy like Mr. Bieber than from having the paternity test show he's not the father. See here. Such is the topsy turvy world of gender crimes, where double standards are the norm.
It's not only deemed societally acceptable for a woman to statutorily rape a teen boy, the law will reward her with child support for the dirty deed. (And please, spare me the blather about how "she" isn't rewarded: given the absence of accountability for how child support is spent, of course she's rewarded, and when she statutorily rapes a wealthy teen boy, she's fabulously rewarded.)
But the boy need not be a wealthy celebrity to be a target. If your minor son is statutorily raped by an adult woman and he happens to impregnate her, your son is liable for child support if the statutory rapist decides to have the baby. Which means, you will have to pay for your son's child if you want to keep your son out of jail. (In that case, unlike the situation where a female victim of statutory rape decides to have an abortion, the taxpayers don't have any obligation to pay for the result of the boy's victimization. That responsibility is his, and his alone.)
Don't believe me? In the case of County of San Luis Obispo v. Nathaniel J., 57 Cal. Rptr. 2d 843 (Ct. App. 1996), a thirty-four-year-old woman had sex with a fifteen-year-old boy and became pregnant. The woman was convicted of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor -- commonly called statutory rape. She decided to have the child, and after she gave birth to her daughter, she received Aid for Families with Dependent Children, and the county sought reimbursement for the AFDC payments from the father, the 15-year-old boy. The court held that the boy, a statutory rape victim, was financially liable for the child that resulted from his victimization.
Why? Because California courts charged with interpreting California's statutory rape laws have recognized that "a minor . . . who voluntarily engages in sexual intercourse is not necessarily a victim of sexual abuse." In re Kyle F., 112 Cal. App. 4th 538, 543, 5 Cal. Rptr. 3d 190 (Cal. Ct. App. 2003).
Other state supreme courts and several state appellate courts have ruled that male statutory rape victims can be financially liable for supporting a child resulting from their criminal victimization. In one case, a 15-year-old boy who was statutorily raped was held to be "not an innocent victim of [a female adult's] criminal act, and the law should not excuse him from his responsibility to support his biological child. Oklahoma's public policy mandating parental support of children outweighs any policy of protecting minors from the consequences of their willing participation in sexual misconduct with adults." Stringer v. Dep't of Human Services ex rel. Baker, 2004 OK CIV APP 97; 104 P.3d 1132 (2004).
There are, of course, no reported cases where female victims of statutory rape have been held to a similar support obligation.
A footnote about Yeater: ". . . she faces a bench trial on December 12 in Las Vegas on a misdemeanor battery charge stemming from a December 2010 incident involving her 18-year-old ex-boyfriend. According to court records, she faces a misdemeanor battery charge for allegedly slapping the unnamed man during an argument about a broken window on his new girlfriend's car. She could get six months in jail and a $1,000 fine in the case." Oh, and by the way, she's accused that man of fathering a child with her as well. http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1673823/justin-bieber-paternity-test.jhtml
So long as our law is premised on chivalry, women like Mariah Yeater will be able to benefit from the same crimes that her male peers would be severely punished for engaging in.

Stories like this are fast becoming an epidemic as women may act without accountability and males are ever persecuted.
As a man I see I am not even a human being in this world where women are applauded for hacking off men's penises, just for asking for a divorce. Oprah and her hoards who have no problem using baby boys' foreskin cream to rejuvenate their fat privileged faces. Universities are hate crime academies where destructive shame-based stats are pulled from a bottomless hole of hatred and lies. Men's lives entirely ripped apart via divorce court, etc.
Men are not people, nay, they are nothing at all but disposable tools of the state.
This world is incredibly sick, and to think millions of women love it, anything for a free pussy pass via big daddy government and the support of millions of hate sisters.
Meanwhile our illustrious governments lick their fascist, watering mouths waiting for the opportune time to completely enslave all.
Martial Law is already in the airports now, and coming soon to the streets and homes near you... - Nov 7, 2011, 2:20:00 PM

Not only that but in a case in which a man or boy was forcibly raped,He would still have to pay child support.In the case of S.F. V State EX REL. T.M. S.F. argued that he shouldn't have to pay child support because the mother forcibly raped him while he was unconscious and he shouldn't have to pay child support to T.M. because he did not voluntarily have sex and his sperm was forced out of him.The court rejected the claim saying that "The wrongful conduct of the mother in causing conception,Did not obviate the fathers support duties."-Of course,In a case in which a woman gets forcibly raped,Not only does she have the option of abortion or adoption,If by some strange occurrence her rapists' get's custody,She will NOT have to pay child support see, Division of Child Support Enforcement ex rel. Esther M. v. Mary L--Whereas the mother did not have to pay child support do to the rape/incest of her brother because the sex was involuntary & non consensual--Get It?-When a woman has a baby,That the sex was involuntary is enough to waive child support duties Yet,When a man impregnates a woman due to a non consensual sexual encounter,That the sex was involuntary,The issue of consent is NOT enough to waive child support duties.What does this mean you might ask?-It means that the laws have a double standard in writing,Rather than just an unspoken,Unwritten,Existing one that no one cares about.

I think i hear the faint echo of the words "Best interests of the child"--Bullshit! If you ask me,It is in the childs best interests to not get raised by a rapist!

You should read this:http://www.supportguidelines.com/articles/art199903.html
First article up when you search that on Google,By Laura Wish Morgan. - Nov 7, 2011, 8:13:00 PM
only one state has an age of consent above 16 in the US. That is TX which is 17. Many states also have what are called "romeo" laws. The media is abuzz with 'statutory" rape which just is not the case. Do you guys honestly think that HER lawyer would not have informed her that she could go to prison if she pursued this? she would have a MAJOR malpractice suit. The media needs to be more responsible. They tell men not to know what laws are to keep us ignorant.

Imagine for a moment, the backlash, if a court ordered a female rape victim to be responsible for a child born out of forcible sex absent of consent.

- billy williams said...
@ anonymous:-No,There are states besides TX with higher ages of consent,Cal has it at 18,If you've read a few articles about the case,You would have seen mentions of the fact that she could be charged,Here is a list of all the ages of consent in the U.S. & as you can see,States have ages of consent anywhere from 16 to 18-http://www.ageofconsent.us/

Kind of off topic, whatever happened to the child from this article? Does anybody know?
It said he was jailed for life in spite of his status as a child. It's been six years, so he isn't a child anymore. - Nov 8, 2011, 9:37:00 PM

This might actually cause a small turning point for American men.
An innocient, high-profile teen eyedoll with millions of adoring female fans gets blatantly falsely accused by some lying skank of some fishnet hole groupie fantasy. That would even incriminate her of statuatory rape if true. And a completely reprehensible fabrication if (well, really no "if's" here, lol) false.
It's pretty much a no-win situation that should stuk herself in - as a last ditch effort for attention. That is unwinnable with today's DNA testing.
Credibility for Americanus Heaux may have just reached a new public low. :) - Nov 10, 2011, 4:46:00 PM

Archived Tee - 2010-07-01About the artist
Tell us about this design:
You'd like that, wouldn't you?... Ok - I'll play your little 'game'... This piece was actually a direct response to a piece I had done for Hydro74's The Brass Tack apparel line (plug!). You know - the 'kids' these days like the skulls on their shirts. I assume it is something satanic in nature, or as a result of school budgetary cuts to the science curriculum, have no clue what a human skull is, and therefore are fascinated with them. Either way, I'm pretty sure I'm right, according to my research.
With the aforementioned insight, I decided to try to take that movement to the obvious next level before other designers realized it was happening, and/or acknowledged it. My answer to that was a decidedly landmark juxtaposition of a human skull with a mustache and lit cigarette on the body of an ostrich. As difficult as that sounds, that is EXACTLY what I did.
I, as well me, and myself, am still very confident this has made a tremendous impact on the 'skullparrelTM' industry as a whole. I have been quite humbled by how fellow artist have responded with such great respect to both myself, and this new trend. They won't even dare touch it. It's really quite something.
...So, after the enormous self-perceived success of that 'millennial- trendsetting-juggernautTM', I marked my new challenge - to take on a new, and self-assuredly explosive, genre. That of the 'Dignified Owl Man Hybrid with Pubic Hair Exposed' genre that I was pretty sure was just over the horizon.
So, with that as my challenge, and an iron will of determination, I set out to redefine the possibly impending movement. And as you can see, I did just that , like, times a MILLION! I took the foundation and added my own originality to it - a 'mustache' and a 'pipe'. BAM! Can't believe no one thought of this before!? WTF!?
And on a side note, did you know a baby owl is actually called an 'Owlette'? I @@@@ YOU NOT! HILARIOUS. I can't wait to see one at a zoo and call it out! (And did you also know, that if they get wet - they are referred to as a 'Moist Owlette' (*rimshot*)) BAM!
What's a day in the life of Jeremy like?
It's a little like this... and a LOT like this...
Do you own alot of shirts?
I do. I'm a half-tuck kind of guy myself. Mainly cause I like to let people know A) I've perhaps done my business already and B) if I did, I probably never stopped by the sink mirror to wash my hands.
If so, what's your favorite?
Favorites? Hrmmmm? Well I do have this one, *hahaa* - it's of Woody Woodpecker - you know the drunk bird from those walter lantz pornos? So, it has a picture of him looking all like him and all... and the text above him *hahaaa* says *chortle* 'Woody' *snort gurgle* 'Woodpecker' *HAHAAAA*! But, get this! The 'Woody' text is HUUUUGE!!! *haha!* Much larger than the 'Woodpecker' text... fricking high-larious - LOVE that shirt! *wipes tears away*
What is your favorite color?
Zombies, ninjas, pirates, vikings.. who would win in a fight?
Um... if memory serves correct...Ninjas beat paper? Rock beats Vikings?....um... Zombies, eventually.
What wine goes best with...Brains?
All wines really - in moderation, of course. The map-kinase enzyme stimulates & regenerates neural cells...(walks over to closet and grabs the 3DBB. Begins to explain to Chumley he may benefit from intake of wine...)
Zombie Apocalypse breaks out tomorrow... Your weapon of choice?
Your mom!
Name the three most important phrases you need when you're talking to a zombie.
"Huuuurrrrrrrr." (what up!?) "Harrruuuuuurrrrrrr."(word up!) and "raaaaaruhuhuhhhrrrrrrr." (your mom!)
What inspires you?
Cartoons & videogames. Mostly the latter, but more so the prior... I think of my style as a bit schizophrenic depending on the intent – but ultimately as the result of an impatient-mongoloid-bastard-love-child of Ed Bennedict & Neal Adams (you know they'd do it if they were able). At least that seems to work in my mind…
If you could go only to one restaurant for the next five years, which would it be?
That is the TOUGHEST question anyone has ever asked me. But it's an easy answer: Max & Ermas. EFFING SQUARE CHEESES DEEP FRIED ON STICKS, BITCHES! BOOYAH!
Have you ever had to get stitches? Any battle scars?
Yes & oh hell yes. True story, my right hand was ripped open by a piece of car trim as I passed by a car in a vertical fashion as I was thrrown to the ground. I was like 13. On the palm of my hand, right by the thumb and into the webbing. You could see tendons - very gross. Seriously screwed my thumbs mobility. Still can't palm a basketball with that hand to this day. All scarred up.
What would the you of now, tell the you of 10 years ago?
Probably something like 'Don't SHOOT! It's me! I mean, YOU! I mean US! I'm me/you from the future! 10 Years in the future to be exact! In 10 years you will need to answer some questions for a website that will be selling a design you did of an Owl/Man with Pubic hair expo- DON'T SHOO - ach...*gurgle* *gurgle* everything going black *gurgle* ...rosebud'...
Where would you like to see yourself in 5 years with your art career or other?
I'd like to see myself swimming in one of my MANY Scrooge McDuck-style money vaults, whilst Gizmoduck keeps out an eye for those nefarious Beagle Boys... But, I would also accept being able to simply support my family & pay my bills while drawing weird shit full time... an ounce of respect would be ICING on the effing cake! WHo's with me!? ...no one? I see...
What advice would you offer to aspiring designers?
Don't do it- you can't compete. Leave it to us grown-ups - ok? Go save whales and stuff - I mean, the planet is going to die if you don't do something more meaningful with your life! Right?... but if you really HAVE to do this... 1)do what you love 2)work hard 3)be patient 4) expect to FAIL if you go up against us!
MAC or PC?
PC - I'm actually a former Mac guy. Why the switch? Wasn't geeky enough - that and I'm cheap. But by doing so I could save and afford get a Wacom Cintiq ;) So, that's something - right!? -I do own an iphone! We still cool!?
Any shout outs?
Certainly. My parents for never telling me how wasted my God-given talent is and supporting me through college.
Hydro74 for his charity work in including my piece in the Brass Tack Apparel line (plug #2). My wife for supporting my artistically self-indulgent tendencies. And lastly, Jimiyo for having to fill a date on a calendar and having more important things to do than seek out a respectable piece/and/or/artist. Peace out. Word to your mothers.
Lastly, can you really touch your tongue to your nose?
I can, and I'm doing it right now.

The ABA Diversity Scholarship focuses on broadening the number of traditionally under-represented groups in the management and operation ranks of the transportation, travel, and tourism industry. Eligible candidates must have completed, at a minimum, their first year of college at an accredited university; must have a declared major or course of study relevant to the transportation, travel, and tourism industry; and must have a cumulative 3.0 GPA. Winners are judged on their academic merit, character, leadership, financial need, and dedication to advancing the transportation, travel, and tourism industry. Candidates must use the space provided in the application to demonstrate their diversity (varying cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, nationality, minorities, age, race, or ethnicity) to evaluators. The ABA Foundation recognizes that diversity is essential in promoting understanding and mobilizing greater involvement in our industry. All applicants are notified of the competition results in May. An impartial selection committee of educators is responsible for ranking and choosing the winners.

Purcell: Secular solo songs, Vol. 1

Purcell: The complete secular solo songs
3CDs Boxed set (at a special price)
The opening phrase is beautifully shaped, rising to you lovers and rapidly falling to fortune or disdain; the harmony under my ashes is wistfully coloured. The hard marble is melted with a drooping figuration, and the relentless stones are softened with a deliciously angular interval. The cold embraces drop to the lower end of the voice, and all Loves cruelties cover an octave and a half in just two words. Our spirit is alone in his sadness, lamenting that for him there are no public protestations of grief at his passing: No verse, No Epicedium bring, No peaceful Requiem [an Epicedium is a poetic Latin obituary]. Ironically, by setting the words to music, Purcell produces just that peaceful Requiem in his setting of profane numbers [poetry and metre]: his music desolately represents the sacred silence that dwells in this graveyard. For a moment the tension rises at Vast griefs but the outburst is quickly stilled by another falling interval as the spirit calls that we should softly mourn, Lest you disturb the peace that attends my urn. Once again the bottom of the voice is used to colour the melisma of the dismal grave, on which only cypress and yew trees, symbolic of death, will grow: kinder flowrs [Stanley reveals that these are roses] will not take root in such unhappy earth, even though the singers phrase rises in false optimism. One final outburst Weep only oer my dust prefaces the epitaph Here lies To Love and Fate an equal sacrifice: in the repetition of this last, short phrase the chorus (a bass singer) appears, almost as a ghost. His entrance, just as the song is plaintively ending, is quite magical.

12 Inch Black Taper Dripless Clean Burning Candle
These elegant 12" taper candles are unscented and are offered in a variety of beautiful colors.
This 12 inch black taper candle is hand dipped. It is dripless, clean burning and has a self fitting base!
Candle holder not included! Taper candle holders sold separately!
These candles are drip less, but keep this in mind, all drip less candles require ideal burning conditions. Make sure that wick is trimmed to 1/4" before each lighting and that there is no breeze or draft present. Keeping your wicks trimmed also helps the candle to burn properly and minimize soot! For taper candles, we recommend using a Bobeche. Bobeches sit at the base of the taper candle and catch any drippings that may occur.

Cerro Coso Community College Reviews
Check out reviews left by other students or leave your own review. You could win a free scholarship.
Desiree from Ridgecrest, CA
12/18/2009Reviewer is A current student here.
1 of 5
Categories Comments Great for these types of students I believe that Cerro Coso is great for the types of students who are still unsure of what they would like to do with their life or aren't sure yet if they could succeed in a large Univeristy where the teachers won't ever even know your name!
Tips for prospective students I advise new students to come in with an open mind to different things. If you haven't ever drawn in a class before then take drawing 1, or learn a new language. School shouldn't just be limited to your future goals. You need to throw in a little variety every now and then! Take some fun courses!
Bang for the buck Cerro Coso offers many different types of courses and compared to other two year colleges, the tuition is very cheap being only $26 a unit. I think that we students are getting a great deal for our education.
Am enjoying being here The Cerro Coso campus has multiple areas where you can just lay in the grass and read a book or sit in the student center and play a game of pool with friends. The atmosphere and enviroment of the campus is very friendly, and everyone here is polite and kind.
Am learning a lot Cerro Coso's Professors are kind and caring people who have the students needs in mind. I have never had a teacher who isn't helpful and most of them will take their own time to help their student succeed. I have learned so much by attending Cerro Coso and because of it, I will be ready to move on and go to University afterwards

Categories Comments What to do for fun Sports and other recreational activities around Ridgecrest.
Academic Rigor Excellent. Finals? Tough.
Tips for prospective students Make sure that you apply for all of the available grants and scholarships that are being offered. Though the classes are not that expensive, it helps when you are on a fixed budget or not employed.
In three sentences I am currently enrolled in their chemistry classes and the course material is fantastic. The teacher is knowledgeable and makes the instruction enjoyable and fun. I am taking all the chemistry classes that this college offers.

Categories Comments Campus Safety CCCC is a very safe college. We have a couple security guards who meander the hallways. I have never had any issues up there, and neither has anyone I know etc. CCCC is a friendly campus, and the the students are there to learn not to harm others.
Greek Life Phi Theta Kappa is on campus for honors students.
Clubs and Activities Slightly lacking in these, but I am not really one to search them out.
Great for these types of students Students who want an inexpensive place to live and want to get through community college cheaply and at the same time know they will be prepared for their junior year at University once they transfer.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Just outside of the campus is a garden with a cool little fish pond. There is lots of hiking around the campus.
Bang for the buck CCCC has very inexpensive tuition because it is a community college. The staff is wonderful and the campus is friendly and safe. Living in Ridgecrest is inexpensive and there are jobs on the base for those who are willing to fight for them.
What to do for fun Clubs, sports. Ridgecrest itself doesn't have much to do besides bowling and swimming, but in the summer heat swimming is as good as it gets! There is a library in town (and at the college--its huge) as well as a museum. About half an hour away are some cool sites like red rock canyon or fossil falls.
Food and Dining Pony Expresso and the book nook have food, but most of it is expensive. Packing lunch is a good idea at CC.
Dorm Life CCCC does not offer dorms, but rent in Ridgecrest is exceedingly low for California. Rent of 500-600 for a nice apartment is commonplace here.
Academic Rigor Depending on the course, it can be a breeze or it could be quite difficult. CCCC offers courses for transfer--basic like speech and How to be a better student--to pre-calculus and English 102 (Critical thinking), as well as a myriad of other courses, even with the vast budget cuts over the past years.
Tips for prospective students Keep in contact with your counselors and status of the courses you are trying to transfer from. Because there is no real standardization of courses in California it is up to you and the counselor to make sure you stay on track according to the college you wish to transfer to. Take advantage of the free tutoring program in the LRC. There is no excuse not to have a tutor when its FREE.
In three sentences A wonderful campus, set in Ridgecrest, California. The professors and staff are eager to help students succeed in order to transfer, obtain an A.A. or a vocational degree. As well as free tutoring offered at the college, most of the professors will gladly aid their students without batting an eyelash.

4 of 5
Categories Comments Great for these types of students Great for motivated students, those who wish to go back to school, and those who aren't quite sure what direction they want their college career to head in.
Bang for the buck Cerro Coso Community College is a great opportunity, the cost of attending Cerro Coso along with the cost of books is extremely low.
What to do for fun The Eastern Sierra's are beautiful. There are a lot of hiking, climbing, canoeing, and fishing opportunities available. During the winter skiing and snowboarding is quite possible.
Food and Dining Cerro Coso has two vending machines, so there is not a lot available food-wise on the campus.
Academic Rigor The professors on campus, as well as the professors online will consistently challenge you. The expect you to engage and participate. The professors do their best to make themselves available for you, whether it is to proofread your English essay or to take the time to explain a particular painting technique one-on-one.
Tips for prospective students Discipline yourself-do not take the easy way out! Extra credit is great, and always challenge yourself. Cerro Coso can really help prepare you for a four-year college later on. Most, if not every, class is transferable.
In three sentences The professors at Cerro Coso Community College are kind, and always willing to go above and beyond to help each student. The Bishop campus is lovely and boasts a particularly nice art room. Cerro Coso's online classes are effective and engaging as well.

Categories Comments Bang for the buck Cerro Coso is really cheap and they have many programs that help with books and classes; and with the teachers Cerro Coso provides students should leave with a well grasp knowledge of the classes they have taken.
What to do for fun Cerro Coso has many clubs. One of my favorites is eSports giving all the people who play video games a place to talk about new upcoming video games and a area for us to compete with each other. Also, Ridgecrest is a small town that provides many outdoors adventures.
Food and Dining Cerro Coso has their very own coffee shop called Pony Espresso providing the students with refreshments and meals throughout the day. We do have to pay, but it is very cheap for a quick meal. There is also a bookstore and vending machines that provide snacks and drinks.
Dorm Life Cerro Coso does not provide dorms, but Ridgecrest is a small community with very low rents. Also, Cerro Coso helps students who are seeking a job to help themselves financially.
Academic Rigor The teachers in Cerro Coso hold a high standard. They tell you from the beginning of class how the semester is going to go providing us with the knowledge that this class might be tough so we must prepare. There are teachers though that try to teach the lessons with the best of their abilities in order for us to pass.
Tips for prospective students My tip for all students in any college is don't slack off. College can be difficult if students make it difficult. If we postpone assignments to the last minute then of course the material will be difficult to learn.
In three sentences Cerro Coso is a perfect community college for someone who needs teachers that can provide more one on one sessions. There are teachers that truly try to make the material understandable creating them to be student teachers. Another important factor is that we have teachers who actually work in the field in which they teach providing more intriguing lessons

- " Main reception area on 11th floor was under construction at end of October, making it noisy and chaotic. Dorm rooms were comfortable with privacy curtains, but like most hostels--the quality of sleep can be dependent on the courtesy of travelers in your dorm room. Many Taiwanese travelers stayed here, and were in and out through the night. Bathrooms were well kept though the some of the dual toilets and showers were very small. "

About you and me
So normally you're quite resourceful and know what you want, right? But this time it's different? You've read the self-help books, talked to your friends (who are fabulous but couldn't help), researched jobs online and nothing seems to fit. Because you've changed. You are smart and ambitious and don't just want to do any old job. You want to love what you do and make the world a better place but have lost the sense of purpose somehow. You're determined to figure it out and that's why you're here.
Good! I'd love to meet you!
My coaching programmes will bring you clarity about what it is that you REALLY want and are action packed to help you get there fast. They are not for the faint-hearted – but will equip you with all the inner confidence and tools to create a wave of opportunities. Risk management and sustainability are also one of the core pillars that you will create for yourself in order to take measured action without jeopardising your life and so that you can coach yourself in the future.You'll learn so much about yourself and gain new perspectives. You'll create happiness through progress and will understand that the one perfect job that ticks all the boxes is a myth and doesn't exist. But together with me you'll create the work that truly matters to you, whilst having a life AND being able to pay your bills and that cool handbag you saw the other day!
Why me?
Well let me just put it bluntly: I have been there! My background is in Marketing and Finance and I wasn't doing badly - I even became a Chartered Accountant - but I HATED Mondays. And Sunday evenings because I was already dreading the week.For me that was not acceptable - living from weekend to weekend could not be the solution for the rest of my life! So I actually hired a coach myself and radically changed my life and, boy, it was worth it!
I don't just call myself a life coach now – I take my profession seriously and have therefore trained with an institute whose comprehensive coach training is accredited by the International Coach Federation. I adhere to the ICF ethical standards and am also a full member of ICAS, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland. Since I love being coached and continually stretching myself I am also working with my own fabulous and inspiring mentor coach on an on-going basis.I have taken clients from being a shy grey office girl to being a published blogger and book critic, helped a seasoned IT director follow his heart and create the perfect work for himself and helped rekindle passions for many of my clients (see testimonials below). Still not convinced? Call me!
Coaching Programmes and Fees
My signature coaching package The Passion Project consists of one big assessment session of about 90 minutes where we see where you're at right now. The second half of the initial session is then all about dreaming BIG and coming up with the ideal life. Thereafter follow six action packed coaching sessions of about 60 minutes over the course of 3-4 months. These will get you focussed on what it is you need to do. You'll love being accountable to me, because you're no longer just thinking and talking about it - you're actually doing it!
The sessions will focus on all the puzzle pieces that need to fall into place to create your heart's desires in reality. Of course we will be celebrating all the successes - big and small!
During your coaching journey you'll have unlimited email support and laser coaching calls as backups - brief focussed trouble shooting calls when difficult decisions or situations arise in your daily (working) life.
The investment is £497. If this seems like a lot of money to pay at once then talk to me about my 3-pay plan.
(If you're a sceptic or not quite yet ready to take action book a couple of sessions at an hourly rate of £80 and then make a decision. If you don't come out of our call rejuvenated and totally excited and ready to go you'll get your money back – no questions asked.)
All this sounds good to you? Great! Give me a call on 0044-1509-890457 and let's connect.
Here's what recent clients said about me:
"You have been planning to leave that island where you feel restless and possibly trapped. This is a journey in your search for a better work/life balance or simply a better life. Jana will expertly help you find the vessel, help to pack the essentials and navigate through the choppy seas. She has a Swiss army knife. She might rock the boat and rightly question your motives but she will make sure your sails are full and proud to reach a sane and safe destination. I am here to tell the tale" Nico, Warwickshire
"Jana Schuberth inspires and brings out courage which you didn't even know you had. I appreciate most her straightforwardness and competence which she presents with a lot of humanity" Simone, Berlin
"You have a gentle but firm approach: your voice, your experiences, having been coached yourself and the structure you offer. I can rely on you. You actually listen and adapt your approach to where I am and want to go. You are compassionate." Marie-Anne, Leicester
"Jana is a wonderful person with a big heart. She gave me back what I hadn't requested from myself in a long time: Passion for my life and the courage to make my dreams become reality." Beatrice, Berlin
"As you know, I always come away from our conversations feeling invigorated & able to change whatever I want to. I'd say that comes from a combination of knowing that you have made the move that you have and your inspiring manner." Clare, Nottinghamshire

Normally, life in Holiday Village Mobile Home Park is pretty quiet.
It's 185 manufactured homes sit under mature trees in the 39-acre park where roads wind past tidy yards.
Here's a look at the park from FlashEarth:
Its mostly elderly residents enjoy their twilight years playing community-coordinated bingo, brdige, line dancing, potluck dinners and more at the clubhouse and around the pool and spa.
Until now.
A couple weeks ago, the park's corporate owner, Equity LifeStyle Properties or ELS notified the residents that existing phone, cable TV and internet service providers were being evicted. Read the letter here:
Instead of Qwest Communications or Comcast, residents will now be served by Primecast. ELS signed an exclusive agreement with Primecast to allow the Florida-based company to be the sole provider.
ELS vice president Lance Beatch said individual phone numbers will remain the same. But any e-mail addresses tied to Qwest or Comcast will have to be changed.
Of course the residents can keep the addressed if they want to pay a premium. ELS has offered to pay the fee for a few months. But beyond that, it will up to the residents to pay or change e-mails.
Many are outraged at the change and are rallying the community to oppose it. They scheduled a "town hall meeting" to discuss strategies. Here's a flier announcing the meeting:
Some are upset because they've heard bad things about Primecast. Here's what the South Florida Better Business Bureau rates the company:
Beatch was unable to say whether other services will translate to Primecast, such as Qwest's Telehealth equipment which transmits vital health statistics of some Holiday Village residents to their doctors on a daily basis.
Nor did he know if Lifeline panic buttons will operate on Primecast. Lifeline buttons are worn around the neck. Should someone fall or become incapacitated, they can press the button to call for help.
But Beatch defended the switch to Primecast saying it will lower everyone's bills for phones, cable TV and internet serivce and the residents will appreciate it in the long run.

The man who crashed a car across the Canada-US border in Langley five years ago has been sentenced to two years in jail.
Antonio Santini was in court July 26 to learn his fate after pleading guilty to charges of dangerous driving causing death and dangerous driving causing bodily harm.
The charges stemmed from a spectacular and fatal crash that took place at Zero Avenue and 272nd Street on the night of May 2, 2007.
A 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier, driven by Santini, then 27, hit a speed hump at a raised intersection while speeding west.
The car took flight and crashed through a power pole, snapping it into three pieces. The Cavalier then rolled several times, coming to rest in the middle of Boundary Road on the U.S. side of the border.
A 17-year-old girl from Mission was flung from the car and landed in a ditch. She was rushed to hospital with serious head injuries and later died.
The other victims, including a 15-year-old girl and a 20-year-old woman, crawled out of the mangled car in a Lynden cow pasture. They were taken to Langley Memorial Hospital for treatment and survived.
Because of the cross-border crash, and its location near the Langley-Abbotsford border, local RCMP, Abbotsford Police, Township firefighters, B.C. Ambulance paramedics, U.S. Border Patrol agents, Lynden firefighters, and the Washington State Patrol all responded to the crash.
For causing the crash, Santini, now 32, received two years less a day in jail time, to be served in the provincial jail system. He has also been sentenced to 18 months probation, and a five-year driving ban.

I thought it might be fun to have a thread for discussion related to software implementation.
Here is a quick guide I wrote for a friend on the lovely C++ std::vector (note, if you can, use the Boost Library instead):
Everyone loves Bjarne's std::vector! Anyone who seriously believes that a two dimensional matrix is substantially more efficient than a properly managed std:vector is simply incorrect - I know, I've done the performance comparisons (it's hard for me to admit that). Here is a rundown of the basics required for implementing high-memory, expensive algorithms with the std::vector class: //declaration vector<vector<int> > myVector; //do not forget the space, it is to help the compiler distinguish //between templates (generics) and multi-dimensional vectors //initialization myVector.resize(MY_ HEIGHT); //setting the vector to your maximum intended size prevents //expensive automatic resizing from occurring //and reduces overhead immensely for(int i = 0; i < MY_HEIGHT; ++i) myVector[i].resize(MY_WIDTH); //we must initialize each vector's vectors //function prototypes that use vectors void myFunc(vector<vector<int> >& myVector); //you really, really should pass by reference //if you don't, you will recopy the entire std:vector on the heap //doing so is a terrible idea //another fun note - by default, C++ implicitly passes any array by reference //manual deallocation (for champions) //let's clear each of the i vector's vectors for(int i = 0; i < MY_HEIGHT; ++i) myVector[i].clear(); //exit loop //time to clear the i vectors myVector.clear(); //you really don't need to worry about doing this if your std::vector is taken out of scope As another note, a std::vector is a semi-managed data structure, so, while the size of the vector construct goes to the stack, all of the actual elements are stored on the heap for you. It is important to make sure your data is being stored on the heap - the stack does not have enough space (only ~4 Kilobytes) to handle all of the information necessary. Finally, I would seriously consider alternatives to an "int" primitive. A single int can hold 32 bits. If you are using unsigned, this is a maximum value of 2^32. Do you really need to store a value this large? For example, it is clear that: 32*100*100 >> 16*100*100. A program could be using 2 Gigabytes of memory, when it only really needs 1 Gigabyte! For most implementation work, you might find the very cool uint8_t or uint16_t to be optimal. These are, of course, unsigned, but for most algorithms (besides negative weighted traversals), those two types are immensely useful. Sometimes (-2pow31) to (2pow31 - 1) clearly isn't what you need; 0 to 2pow16 is usually right on the money!

Yikes, I used to dabble in the arts of programming, but for me it's definatly not like riding a bike lol
The main reasons I am "good" at programming is that I enjoy challenges, I know how to use Google, and I can usually follow the logic easily.
However, I tend to not know much syntax or conventional names, preferring to google them as I need to. Therefore, I don't really know "Bjarne's std::vector" I can probably understand the entire code if I had the time to google the stuff, however.
Although I should go mining for some of the funnier and stranger pieces of code I have written. I know I have some highly inefficient but original Java program for calculating the partitions of an integer (Number of ways of writing a number as a sum of integers).
Bjarne created C++.
I do not believe there to be an efficient way to calculate the p(n). The recursive formulation is very inefficient.

1. Ah.
2. My method was horrendus. It made an nxn recursive matrix to calculate p(n). I was just proud of it because I invented it without knowing much about partitions at all.
The well-known recursive formula is really fast though. Summations of pentagonal numbers? Quadratic spacing. Meh.
There is also the closed form, which is hilarious and horrendus. sins and adding 1/24. Sigh.
3. I need to learn more about O(n) and algorithm speeds. Seems interesting, but never learned about it. Just "learned" from context. I know it is the approximate speed of the algorithm for n, but I don't know too much about calculating it.

It is amortized n, but I say it is worst case n^2.
You can solve recurrences with term expansion and lots of log / exponent rules.
Order of magnitudes are pretty awesome. It isn't so much speed, but more a bound on operations.
There are worst, amortized, and average cases for big o. Theta is a tight bound and omega a lower bound. These are defined for specific constants that help compare growth rates of operations.
The extent of my programming is using processing for fun every now and then.

Sick! Oakley's Bob Burnquist Lands First Ever Mega Ramp 900, Fakie to Fakie
It's eluded him for a while now. He tried it on the X Games mega ramp this summer…but to no avail. But when Oakley skate legend Bob Burnquist finally landed the 900 this past week – on his backyard mega ramp, provided in part by Oakley – it was even more insane than he originally intended. Why? Not only was it on a mega ramp. It was fakie to fakie. Check out what Bob had to say about the huge feat during a routine visit to Oakley Headquarters on Sept. 7.

Two days after Islamist militants abducted an undetermined number of hostages -- including Westerners -- at a gas plant in a remote section of Algeria, "ongoing activity at various locations" was continuing, a British official said Friday.
It was not clear whether that activity represented "mopping up and checking" or "something more active" being carried out by Algerian forces against the abductors, the official told CNN.
Algerian forces launched their operation upon noticing the hostages being moved toward "a neighboring country," where kidnappers could use them "as a means of blackmail with criminal intent," Algerian Communications Minister Mohamed Said told state television on Thursday.
The British official said there was a "significant" number of British victims and others were unaccounted for.
British Foreign Secretary William Hague was to release more information Friday from Australia, and a parliamentary statement will be issued, the official said.
The official's account was in line with Prime Minister David Cameron's warning of "bad news ahead" issued late Thursday
Algerian troops fired on at least two SUVs trying to leave the kidnapping site, Algerian radio said, citing local sources. And an Algerian reporter saw clashes near the site, the Algerian Press Service and radio reports said.
"There were a number of dead and injured, we don't have a final figure," Said reported.
Earlier, Algeria's state media reported that all Algerian nationals who had been held hostage were free: some had fled, while others were released. The hostages still detained are foreigners, Algerian Interior Minister Dahou Ould Kablia said.
In addition to the hundreds of freed workers, 30 Algerian workers escaped and were picked up by helicopters, the APS report said.
Nearly 600 workers and four foreign nationals -- two Scots, a Kenyan and a French citizen -- were free by late Thursday after the Algerian military operation, the state-run Algerian Press Service reported.
But some hostages were still presumably being held. "It is a fluid situation, it is ongoing," Cameron told the Reuters news agency. "I think we should be prepared for the possibility of further bad news, very difficult news, in this extremely difficult situation."
The Algerian military operation led to numerous casualties and was over by Thursday evening, the Algerian Press Service said.
But U.S. and British officials predicted it would resume Friday during the day.
"There are still hostages, and there are still terrorists," a senior U.S. official said. "So tomorrow is another day."
Two people -- an Algerian and British national -- died Wednesday when the Islamist militants attacked, the same news agency said.
The Algerians and foreign workers were taken hostage early Wednesday in an assault carried out apparently in response to France's offensive in neighboring Mali. The gas field is 60 kilometers (40 miles) west of the Libyan border and 1,300 kilometers (about 800 miles) from the Algerian capital, Algiers.
The kidnappers were equipped with AK-47 rifles and put explosives-laden vests on some of the hostages, a U.S. State Department official said.
On Wednesday, the attackers had put the number of hostages at "more than 40," including seven Americans, two French, two British and other Europeans. Another Islamist group told the Mauritanian News Agency there were 41 "Westerners."
The APS, though, reported that slightly more than 20 foreign nationals were being held.
