In no other European metropolis has so much changed in recent years. Of course, famous sightseeing landmarks like the Brandenburg Gate, Reichstag and East Side Gallery still bear witness to the history of the city – but today Berlin presents itself as a young, dynamic metropolis open to the world right in the heart of Europe, setting new trends in architecture, art and fashion. Discover its diversity – enjoy Berlin! Facts Population 3.5 million Currency Euro, €1 = 100 cents Opening hours Berlin has extremely liberal opening times. Theoretically, shops may stay open from Monday to Saturday round the clock. In practice though, most stores in the larger shopping centres are open Monday to Saturday from 10 / 11 am to 8 / 9 pm. You can't pigeonhole Berlin at all, and it is precisely this fact that makes the city so unique. Originally the symbol of the Cold War and division of Germany, the former "Walled-in City" at the border between West and East Europe has developed into a permanently attractive travel destination since the Wall came down.The Berlin Wall divided one of the most popular metropolises in Europe for almost 30 years. When it came down on 9th November 1989, the world changed. For those who would like to go on a tour of discovery for the traces of the Wall where it used to run, there are many possibilities: one way is to experience the division at first hand at the Bernauer Straße Memorial, where the division created by the Wall is brought back to life by original parts of the actual death strips. Other places where you can trace the Berlin Wall are the East Side Gallery, the former border crossing point between East and West Berlin Checkpoint Charlie, and the associated Wall Museum.These days, the appeal of Berlin is its fascinating mixture of history and zeitgeist, offering diverse attractions in art, culture, music, entertainment and countless shopping possibilities. The modern hotel landscape, an incredibly diverse gastronomy and unbeatably favourable prices certainly bear comparison with international standards. Plus the city's vibrant and flourishing creative scene and hot music and club culture put their own unique stamp on the unmistakable character of the lifestyle metropolis.To be true, the first time you visit Berlin, you want to see the famous attractions. However, the second visit (at the latest) it'll be clear what really attracts you about Berlin. Whether lover of culture or scene frequenter – you'll be sure to find what you're looking for in one of the city districts. Berlin has 12 in number and each of them possesses its own particular charm: in Berlin-Mitte fashion rules the roost – alongside Chancellor Merkel, Neukölln has been transformed from a problem area into the scene district Berlin's western city centre is now enjoying a renaissance, Prenzlauer Berg is famous for its family-friendly reputation, Kreuzberg has its multicultural scene and Friedrichshain is the centre of the alternate lifestyle.

The capital of Germany is filled with spectacular museums. While the admission fees vary, students usually get a 50% discount. Better yet, children under the age of 18 are free. When visiting Berlin, it is wise to buy a three day Museum Pass. That way, a visitor of Berlincan get into more than fifty museums and public foundations for one fee. Just make sure that you have comfortable shoes, along with a camera to capture the unparalleled beauty of Berlin. Explore the 5 Museums on Berlin's Museum Island, Museumsinsel The massive Pergamon-Museum is home to an extensive collection of ancient Greek artifacts, along with Islamic art and architecture. The Altes Museum is world famous for its Egyptian and the antique collection. The Alte Nationalgalerie displays numerous German paintings of the 19th Century. The newly reopened Bode-Museum is known for its wonderful sculpture collection and Byzantine art. Visiting the Neues Museum, people can see the Egyptian collection, Neanderthal and other prehistoric archaeological finds, as well as some historic artifacts from Troy. Unlike the other museums on the island, Neues requires a timed entry ticket. Plan Your Holiday to Berlin The capital of Germany is rich in both culture and excitement. The summer months, June to August, are the busiest time to fly to Berlin, as the weather is ideal for family vacations. Still, plenty of visitors favor the mild temperatures in the fall and iduring the spring. The winters can be extremely cold and windy, making it the lowest season for tourism. Regardless, the capital of Germany is a year-round destination. In other words, make sure to book your flights to Berlin in advance with Etihad Airways.

About 150 people turned out for a one time viewing of a cult classic film "The Giant Spider Invasion." It made a return to the Cosmo Theater in Merrill for a screening on Wednesday, Dec. 5th.
Originally the theater owners were only going to play it on one screen, but due to the high turnout the film was played in two auditoriums. Admission was free, however, moviegoers were asked to bring two non-perishable food items that were in turn donated to the St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry in Merrill.
"The Giant Spider Invasion" was filmed in Your Town Merrill in 1975 and is rated PG.
The Cosmo Theater is located at 813 East Main Street in Merrill.

Whipping up a batch of vinaigrette is kind of like throwing a party and inviting a bunch of people you know don't really get along. Things are fine for the first hour or so, with everybody milling around, chit-chatting and wrecking your carpet, but then they slowly start to separate into their cliques and groups. Thankfully, parties don't have to last very long, and it's usually at this point you start ushering everyone out the door before they find those extra bottles of wine you stashed away.
Vinaigrettes are, of course, emulsions (or colloids if you want to be really technical) and they are considered 'oil-in-water' emulsions since the particles of oil are suspended within water – in our case, vinegar. The main thing you need to know about emulsions is that they really don't want to be that way – they'd much rather separate out into their own parts. As mentioned in the show, honey and mustard are both great additions to the herb vinaigrette not just because of the flavors they add, but also because both honey and mustard are what's known as surfactants or emulsifiers because they help stabilize the vinaigrette. They're kind of like party games – they keep all those guests who want to separate together, at least for a little while.
That's all well and good if you want to make a vinaigrette that contains some kind of emulsifier – say, egg yolk for your caesar dressing or hollandaise – but what if you want just a plain ol' garden vinaigrette without the mustard tang or sweetness of honey? You may wonder how that Italian dressing you get from the store stays so nice and even – well, they're using commercial grade emulsifiers, of course, stuff not really available to the average consumer.
So what to do? Well, don't sweat it, that's what you do! Given the amount of time it takes to whip up a batch of vinaigrette (minutes, really) and how simple the recipe is (3 parts oil to 1 part vinegar + herbs or what-have-you) just make however much you need for that salad you want. This allows much greater customization for each salad you make, and you won't have bottles and jars of various specialty vinaigrettes in your fridge. If you've got a nice shake-able vinaigrette bottle, go ahead and make enough for a day or two – all you've got to do to bring that party back is shake it up a bit. So go experiment, bust out that immersion blender, and get to mixing!
2.5 oz DIJON
5 oz CHAMPAGNE VINAGER
5 oz RED WINE VINAGER
2.5 oz HONEY
2 oz SHALLOTS (fine dice)
1 C CHERVIL (fine chop)
1C CHIVES (fine chop)
1C PARSLY (fine chop)
½ t TARRAGON(fine chop)
32 oz BLENDED OIL
In small mixer combine all ingredients except oils
Mix until incorporated
On high speed Slowly add Oil to Emulsify
Salt & Pepper to Taste
If using a hand blender place all ingredients except oils in a 1 gallon container and mix till incorporated and then slowly add oil.

Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Inner Sea Bestiary
This book contains dozens of new monsters found in the Inner Sea region—all invented specifically for the Pathfinder campaign setting! Some, like the gearsmen of Numeria or the moth-like star monarchs who serve the goddess of dreams, have been mentioned many times in Pathfinder Campaign Setting books, but others, like the alien vespergaunt or Rahadoum's desert-dwelling whirlmaws, have only been obliquely illustrated or mentioned before. And some—like the mysterious and ancient veiled masters, and the disturbingly alluring fungus queen—make their appearance for the first time in print after debuting in Paizo's office campaigns. The Inner Sea Bestiary explores some of Golarion's most unique monsters. Inside this book you will find:
The Inner Sea Bestiary is intended for use with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and the Pathfinder campaign setting, but can be used in any fantasy game setting. By Jim Groves, James Jacobs, Rob McCreary, Erik Mona, Jason Nelson, Patrick Renie, F. Wesley Schneider, James L. Sutter, Russ Taylor, Greg A. Vaughan ISBN-13: 978-1-60125-468-9 Note: This product is part of the Pathfinder Campaign Setting Subscription.

Comments about Especially Yours Nancy Human Hair Wig from Wet 'n' Wavy Collection:
The quality of the hair is poor. It tangles badly. Also this wig matts badly. It this really human hair? Please check your product. I would not recommend this wig to know one. I will never buy another one. I have purchased 3 and they have done the same thing.

Cellar/Tasting Notes A fresh, juicy cherry note is enlivened by spice and savory mineral elements in this lean yet firm red. Remains harmonious and persistent, featuring a long, spice-tinged aftertaste. Shows excellent potential.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2009 Chianti Classico Querciabella floats on the palate with layers of sensual red fruit, flowers and spices. It remains an essentially mid-weight wine graced with exquisite finesse and class, reflecting a stylistic change from some of the bigger vintages of the past. Floral notes reappear on..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Proprietor Luca Sanjust and his team make some of the most sensual, pleasurable wines in Tuscany.""Petrolo's 2007 Torrione (Sangiovese) is one of the overachievers of the vintage. In a blind tasting it could easily be mistaken for a wine that costs twice as much (trust me on that!). This is..

Conditions of Use
the salmon eggs hatch in about 3 months and are laid in reeds made by the female.the eggs are an orangish pink color and about the size of a pencil eraser,they have one eye in the middle of the egg.
the threats are invasive species,disease,freezing,flooding,preditation,high temeratures ,dams,waste,humans,disturbance of gravel,soil eroison etc.
salmon eggs need cool,clean water to survive.Trees and plants along the river provide shade which keeps the water temerature cool enough. The treets and plants along the river also help prevent soil eroison which can sometimes smother the eggs.

2011-12 Undergraduate Catalog
CURRICULUM The Common Curriculum, which includes eight required courses spread over four years, is at the heart of a liberal arts education at Seattle Pacific University.
In their freshman, sophomore, and junior years at Seattle Pacific, students participate in two parallel sequences of required courses. As students move through the three University Core courses, they address key questions that pervade human life: "Who am I?" "From where have I come?" and "How do I know and act?" As they confront these perennial human questions through the study of human culture, history, and thought, students are challenged to understand themselves, their heritage and traditions, and the world from the perspective of the Christian faith. The three University Foundations courses are centered in the foundations of faith:
Each course in the University Core and University Foundations sequences includes common texts and objectives in order to ensure common learning. All members of the community are encouraged to join in the common conversations around these works through Chapel programs, lectures, concerts, and other community events. Through shared experiences in a committed community of learners, the liberal arts at Seattle Pacific University has as its aim the formation of Christian character, which is evident in qualities of heart, mind, and action.

The University Scholars program at Seattle Pacific University replaces — with the exception of the University Foundations courses and the mathematics requirement — the Common Curriculum and the Exploratory Curriculum for selected students who are highly motivated to pursue an intense academic program studying great works of art, literature, philosophy, social science, and natural science in their historical contexts. University Scholars courses are rigorously interdisciplinary and offer intensive peer discussion. The program's goal is to create a community of self-motivated scholars engaged in thoughtful cross-disciplinary conversation, writing, and action on issues facing the church and the world. Admission is based on test scores and high school GPAs; a limited number of high school seniors are invited to apply to the program. Students who are highly motivated to participate in the program, but who do not receive an initial invitation at admission, should contact the director to apply directly for entry. A few students may be admitted into the program during their first year of study. [Back to top] Requirements for University Scholars Program In addition, University Scholars must complete PHY 1111, University Scholars Physics, or an approved science substitution, and they must complete a 5-credit mathematics courses selected from the list of mathematics courses approved for the Exploratory Curriculum. University Scholars are required to take a special sequence
of USCH courses (listed below) that — with the exception of three University Foundations courses and the mathematics requirement — satisfies the requirements of the Common Curriculum
and Exploratory Curriculum.
Special features and conditions of the program:
Internships, ROTC, Senior Citizen Program, Special Studies, Study Abroad, Study Programs, Visit/Transfer Programs, Washington Academy of Languages Internship Program Careful supervision of students' progress toward learning objectives is a key component of an internship, and a successful experience is built on a partnership between the student, faculty sponsor, and employer.
It is the quality of the placement and supervision and the emphasis on students' development of critical thinking and other skills that distinguish internships from other part-time or volunteer work programs. Each school sets specific prerequisites for participation in internships. Generally 30 hours of internship work equate to 1 academic credit. Internship opportunities may be at accounting firms, advertising agencies, banks, high-tech companies, medical research labs, performing arts organizations, retail stores, schools, human-service agencies, and many other types of organizations. Postings of internship opportunities and information about how students can be involved are available in the Career Development Center. Interested students should address inquiries to the Center for Career and Calling, located in the Student Union Building, Second Floor.

Any male or female student may enroll in these classes.

ROTC Academic Achievement Award.

The award, which covers room-and-board costs, is offered to qualified top scholars who present a combination of high school grade point average and SAT Combined Math/Verbal Score, which meets University guidelines for this award and who demonstrate commitment to the Christian ideals of Seattle Pacific, including involvement in a local church. The award is renewable for a total of four consecutive years. To apply, contact SPU Financial Services. Senior Citizen Program The only limitation to the program is the availability of space in particular classes. Registration for senior citizens who use this program commences on the second day of the quarter. Those wishing to apply work toward a degree must formally apply to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. Non-matriculated students need only register at Student Academic Services. Washington Academy of Languages Students who are at least 18 years of age and have earned a high school diploma may register to receive SPU credit, on an SPU transcript, for courses taken through Washington Academy of Languages (WAL). Registration for SPU credits through WAL is separate from the normal registration process for WAL courses and carries extra fees which will be charged by SPU, separate from charges for regular SPU credits. Courses taken through WAL have limited financial aid opportunities. Students who are not matriculated, not admitted to SPU may pursue an alternative loan. Fully admitted, matriculated SPU students may be eligible for federal, state, and private financial aid if the WAL courses directly transfer toward their SPU degree — students must receive prior approval of the transfer applicability of WAL courses and general financial aid eligibility if they wish to be considered for aid. All interested students should contact Student Financial Services at 206-281-2061 (option 6) or email@example.com. These credits do not count toward the minimum 12 credits required for SPU full-time status nor toward housing and scholarship eligibility. Students must seek prior approval from Student Academic Services in Demaray Hall 151 if they wish to exceed a quarterly credit load of 18 credits from SPU and WAL, combined. Final grades for WAL courses taken for SPU credit will be awarded at the end of the SPU quarter in which the classes are taken. Students must earn a minimum grade of "C" (2.0) in Level IV of a WAL language course (transcripted through SPU) in order to fulfill SPU's foreign language proficiency requirement.
These programs are registered at Seattle Pacific University and
taken with SPU faculty.
In what may be a first for an American educational institution, Seattle Pacific University has established the Center for Relationship Development (CRD) to help students learn to build healthy, lasting relationships. Initially funded by grants from the Murdock Charitable Trust, the Center is dedicated to fostering positive relationships, whether they be with classmates, roommates, parents, teammates, siblings, bosses, or potential marriage partners. The Center aims to solve relationship problems before they begin. Its efforts focus on three major areas: education, outreach, and research. Education. Along with Seattle Pacific's School of Psychology, Family, and Community, the Center for Relationship Development annually sponsors two academic courses in relationship development.
Outreach. The Center for Relationship Development also sponsors special programs designed to meet specific relationship needs. These include the following:
Research and Evaluation. The CRD conducts ongoing scholarly research on relationship issues and puts that information to work in its education and outreach efforts. It also continuously evaluates its programs to ensure their effectiveness. Note: Both PSY 1250 and PSY 2250 must be successfully completed for grades if the student desires to apply these courses toward a psychology major or minor.

The Blakely Island Field Station serves as the teaching site for upper-division biology courses in marine, aquatic, and terrestrial ecology; and oceanography, introductory biology, and astronomy for non-science majors. Research conducted by faculty and students has included baseline surveys of major island habitats, and the ecology of lakes, marine bays, and forests. Although only a few miles from the mainland, the island is isolated and home to only a few year-round residents. Facilities include a dining hall-library-classroom building that accommodates 24 students and staff, a residence hall with 10 double-occupancy rooms, and a dive shop. The island is surrounded by lush kelp forests, eelgrass meadows, and spectacular rock walls. These sub-tidal and inter-tidal habitats support a diversity of sea seeds, invertebrates, fish, and marine mammals. In the island interior, the lakes provide habitat for river otters, herons, kingfishers, bald eagles, and osprey, as well as a diverse invertebrate fauna. The terrain is rugged, rising sharply from sea level to more than 1,000 feet, and it supports several distinctive forest types. For a complete listing of courses offered at Blakely Island Field Station, visit the website, or contact Dr. Timothy Nelson, field station director. You can also see information about the biology major for further information and course descriptions. [Back to top] |

Lawmakers erupted in applause at Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez's inauguration six years ago. An orchestra played. Chavez beamed.
It's a different scene this year.
Chavez is scheduled to take the oath of office for a new six-year term in just a few days, but it's unclear whether he'll even be in the country. Chavez has been recovering from surgery in Cuba, where he is undergoing cancer treatment. Top aides describe the president's condition as "complicated" and "delicate."
The uncertainty over what will happen on inauguration day -- January 10 -- has roiled this oil-rich country of more than 28 million people. Newspapers and airwaves are full of questions about the future.
What will happen if Chavez loses his battle with cancer or becomes too incapacitated to govern? What if he's too ill to attend the swearing-in ceremony?
Venezuela's constitution provides clarity about will happen if Chavez dies or is declared incapacitated -- both of those scenarios would lead to new presidential elections. Debate rages, however, over what will happen if Chavez remains in Cuba and does not take the oath of office in Caracas.
Here's a look at several scenarios that could play out in the coming days, based on a reading of Venezuela's constitution and interviews with experts:
-- If lawmakers declare Chavez permanently absent from office or he dies before January 10:
Vice President Nicolas Maduro would finish out the Chavez term ending next week. Then the head of Venezuela's National Assembly -- currently Diosdado Cabello -- would assume the presidency. New elections would be held within 30 days.
-- If Chavez is sworn in on January 10, but later dies or his illness forces lawmakers to declare him permanently absent from office:
The vice president assumes the presidency. New elections must be held within 30 days.
-- If Chavez is unable to be sworn in before lawmakers on January 10:
Instead of taking the oath of office before the National Assembly, the constitution says Chavez can be sworn in before the country's Supreme Court.
The wording of the constitution has opened a debate: Does an inauguration before the Supreme Court have to happen on January 10? And does it have to occur in Venezuela? Who runs the country in the meantime?
The constitution isn't clear about whether a swearing-in ceremony before the Supreme Court must take place on January 10, said Jesus Maria Casal, a professor of constitutional law at Andres Bello Catholic University in Caracas. "It leaves a margin of interpretation," he said.
Cabello, the national assembly president, is one of several top officials from Chavez's party who argue that the inauguration can be postponed. And Felix Roque, a constitutional lawyer, told state-run VTV this week that Chavez could be sworn in before the Supreme Court justices inside the Venezuelan Embassy in Cuba if necessary.
Other experts argue that the January 10 date is non-negotiable.
Constitutional lawyer Jose Vicente Haro told CNN en Espanol that the inauguration must occur on that day and cannot occur inside the embassy in Cuba because "it is not Venezuelan territory."
The January 10 date "really matters," said Javier Corrales, a political science professor at Amherst College.
"The moment that you enter into the idea that people can just easily change the inauguration date, you are essentially governing outside of the constitution," he said. "You are essentially abandoning the democracy."
Ultimately, Venezuela's Supreme Court could be asked to decide, said Jennifer McCoy, director of the Americas program at the Atlanta-based Carter Center.
If Chavez has not returned to Venezuela and is unable to be sworn in on January 10, the National Assembly may be forced to act, McCoy and Casal said. The lawmakers may have no choice but to either declare Chavez permanently absent, which would result in the national assembly president taking over, or temporarily absent.
-- If lawmakers declare Chavez temporarily absent from office:
Another official will assume the presidency for up to 90 days. Lawmakers can renew that for another 90 days.
That means if lawmakers choose to declare Chavez temporarily absent, it can buy them time -- up to 180 days -- before they must decide whether Chavez is incapacitated.

Hypatia by Arnulf Zitelmann.
Good book.
The story is set in Alexandrie, around 400 a.c.
Thonis is a an ancient slave that got a position as a scribe in Hypatia's house. She's a philosopher - at that time, woman philosophers were not common. Being the secretary of such an important person, Thonis, among other things, has to note what have been said during secret audiences held by the prefect of Egypt. Then, after a while, Thonis's life is put in danger because of some radicalist christians.
This sounds very boring, but actually the story is very interesting.

Boy-bashful and not overly brave-defends girl from obnoxious drunk on a Tokyo train. Girl sends boy a thank-you pair of pricey Hermes teacups. Boy's a geek and doesn't know what to do next. End of story for most nerds-but this one turns to the world's largest online message board and asks for help, so for him it's just the beginning.
