Sam Manicom recently sent me his first book "Into Africa" to review and post my thoughts up on the forum.
Sam was seeking out an opinion warts and all of his book.
I've never read a travel book before of someone's adventure, despite the many recommendations on the site and the fact that I wanted to, so it was with some interest that I accepted the challenge. It was with some trepidation that I set off on this exercise knowing that if it didn't work out I could pass it on to someone else to review.
I'm normally someone that needs to get in to a book straight away and I just wasn't sure that I would get bitten by a diary that's been turned in to a book.
How wrong I could be.... now I have to be careful here lest I give any of the key points of the story away, but in the first reading session we have an accident and for the pedestrian involved a very serious one, coupled with a spell in prison (well Police cell anyway) for Sam! Oh my goodness I was finding this really very interesting.
So if you haven't sussed this out yet this is Sam's (very graphic in places) story of his ride through Africa, the daily challenges and adventures he faced along the way. Sam hadn't really ridden a bike before embarking on this adventure and I have to admit I was slightly disappointed in this as I was hoping that Sam was a regular biker like myself who loved biking and just wanted to do more on his bike and extend his adventures. To Sam a bike was just a way of getting around on his adventure, and I got the impression he could have easily done this adventure by back packing or cycling and still got the same experiences. However I needn't have worried because he soon seemed to develop a warmth for the bike and this method of transport that we all love and share.
I found myself reading the book very regularly, unusually for me as I lead a very busy life. I kept on wanting my fix.
I don't know what it was, whether it was the almost innocent way in which the book was written, or the connection with something that I personally would love to do, but don't have the freedom or balls to be able to do, but I found myself really connecting and enjoying this book.
I even found myself talking about it to family and friends with real enthusiasm, describing scrapes and experiences that Sam had had almost as if they were my very own!
So how would I summarise it..... a fantastic read that takes you through all the scrapes, experiences and adventures as if you were there yourself. I would say that if you plan to do any adventure riding then this would be a must read. You'll certainly learn from Sam's experiences!!
A highly recommended book in my opinion.
So support Sam and his adventures by buying his book, which he will sign for you.......
Sam also has another book out which I've also written a review of "Under Asian Skies".
If you've also read "Into Africa" then please also post your thoughts up here, I know that Sam will be interested.

Aug 19, 2009
Author: Michael M. Berger
Herewith, a fascinating tale of impact fees, a development agreement, and a city's power to radically change the former in light of the latter – and whether anyone but the parties should know about the outcome.
Every now and then, a piece of litigation blazes across the firmament, showing up on everyone's radar screen. Building Industry Assn. of Central California v. City of Patterson, 171 Cal.App.4th 886 (2009) is such a case.
The case began innocently enough when Morrison Homes, Inc. inked a development agreement with, and obtained vesting tentative subdivision tract maps from, the City of Patterson. As is fairly common, the City had an affordable housing requirement for new residential developments, which developers could bail their way out of at a cost of $734 per house. The development agreement, which otherwise froze regulations as of the date of its signing, allowed an increase in this in lieu fee if the increase was "reasonably justified." Three years later, the City increased the in lieu fee from $734 per house to $20,946 per house and sought to apply the increased amount to Morrison's projects.
The developer sued; the trial court upheld the City; the developer appealed. Held: reversed. But that's only part of the story. Read on.
What had happened is that the City changed its ways of computing the in lieu fees. The initial fee was determined by using what the City called a "leverage" approach, i.e., using the fees to obtain federal loans and grants. When the City decided to drop that approach and focus on actual construction costs and the difference between market rate housing and low to moderate income housing, it concluded that it needed $73.5 million to construct its fair share of subsidized housing. Spreading that cost over the number of unentitled units left in the City produced the much larger number. (Acknowledging the games that can be played with numbers, the Court of Appeal noted that, if this developer's remaining units were the only unentitled market rate units in the City, then the per unit in lieu fee would have been $343,458. But I digress. Or do I?)
The developer had doubly protected itself from changes in the law. First, it had a vesting tentative tract map. Under California law, a "vesting" map freezes local regulations as of the date it is accepted. (Govt. Code §§ 66498.1, 66474.2) Second, Morrison had a development agreement, which should have done the same. The appellate court noted that the parties had agreed that any conflict between the two was governed by the development agreement, and that agreement allowed for a change in the in lieu fee if it was "reasonably justified."
The court rejected Morrison's argument that the City was restricted to changes that used the original "leverage" mode of analysis, as nothing in the agreement restricted the way in which the City could make the determination. The question thus boiled down to the meaning of "reasonably justified."
The City apparently took a "sky's the limit" approach in its argument, urging that the contractual provision authorizing it to make changes automatically freed it from any legal requirements that would have otherwise applied. Morrison countered that the words could not be so loosely read as to leave the City wholly untethered. The court agreed:
"Here, we conclude that an objectively reasonable person would expect the term 'reasonably justified' to mean that any increase in the affordable housing in-lieu fee would conform to existing law. In other words, part of the way one would show a fee is reasonably justified is to show that it does not violate established legal principles. The contrary interpretation, which would conclude that the term did away with applicable legal requirements, would create much greater change in the relationship between the parties. An objectively reasonable person would expect more explicit language to implement such a change. Thus, it is too great a leap to infer that the term 'reasonably justified' demonstrates an intention to waive applicable legal requirements." (171 Cal.App.4th at 896.)
Morrison urged that the proper standard of review was provided by the U.S. Supreme Court's decisions in Nollan v. California Coastal Commn.,, 483 U.S. 825 (1987), and Dolan v. City of Tigard, 512 U.S. 374 (1994) and the California Supreme Court's decision in Ehrlich v. City of Culver City, 12 Cal.4th 854 (1996), i.e., a heightened level of scrutiny that would examine the City's action in light of its nexus and proportionality to the burdens imposed on the City by Morrison's development.
Feeling bound by the California Supreme Court's analysis of a rent control ordinance in San Remo Hotel v. City & County of San Francisco, 27 Cal.4th 643 (2002), the court concluded that the proper test was whether "there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee, as increased, and 'the deleterious public impact of the development.'" (171 Cal.App.4th at 898.) The answer was no, as the court found nothing in the record that tied the increase to any adverse impacts associated with the project but, instead, simply an arithmetical projection based on general regional housing studies:
"The record in this matter reveals no reasonable relationship between the extent of City's affordable housing need and development of either (1) the 214 residential lots that constitute the two subdivisions owned by Developer or (2) the 3,507 unentitled lots identified in the Fee Justification Study. Instead, the Fee Justification Study reveals that the in-lieu fee of $20,946 per market rate unit was calculated based on an allocation to City of 642 affordable housing units, out of the total regional need for affordable housing identified in the 2001-2002 Regional Housing Needs Assessment for Stanislaus County. No connection is shown, by the Fee Justification Study or by anything else in the record, between this 642-unit figure and the need for affordable housing associated with new market rate development. Accordingly, the fee calculations described in the Fee Justification Study . . . do not support a finding that the fees to be borne by Developer's project bore any reasonable relationship to any deleterious impact associated with the project." (171 Cal.App.4th at 899.)
The Court of Appeal reversed, directing the trial court to invalidate the new in lieu fee, but leaving any other remedy for further determination.
That's when the fun started. Evidently the Court of Appeal did not think it had done anything particularly momentous, as it did not certify the opinion for publication. Under California's rules, the opinion would therefore be res judicata as to the City of Patterson, but not even worth the consideration given student law review notes as to any other city.
Word got around – perhaps aided by the fact that the local wing of the Building Industry Association was a co-plaintiff with the developer. As allowed by Rule 8.1120, Cal. Rules of Court, anyone may ask a Court of Appeal to publish an opinion not originally slated for publication. This is done by letter, letting the court know how highly prized its words will be if they are only allowed to see the light of day, because they deal with important or previously unsettled issues. So, twelve days after filing, such a request appeared on the docket. Then the floodgates opened, resulting in these docket entries:
Filed request to publish opinion.
Several different requests filed by: Paul Campos /Home Builders ; Tracy T. Carver/Hearthstone; Fred Bell/BIA Desert Champter; Bob Yoder/Shea Homes; Roger A. Grable/Manatt; David A. Turner/David A. Turner Homes (to jak)
multiple requests by : Christopher E. Skiff/The Manse; Dixie L. Wells/Di-Mac Development, Inc.; Anthony E. Wells/Stonegate Orcutt Venture, LLc. (to jak)
by J. Michael Armstrong, Principal/Senior Vice President of Barratt American Incorporated. (JAK)
by atty David Lanferman/applts Building Industry Association of central california and Morrison Homes. (to jak)
Mulitple requests by several different interested parties in the Home Building Industry. (to jak)
multiple requests from several interested parties in the building Industry. (to jak)
Multiple (34) reqs from interested parties in the building Industry JAK
Multiple (36) requests for publication of the opinion from interested parties in the building industry. (JAK)
Multiple (9) requests for publication of the opinion from interested parties in the building industry. (JAK)
Multiple (17) requests for publication of the opinion from interested parties in the building industry. (JAK)
One (1) Oppositon from (League of California Cities) to the requests for Publication of the opinion from interested parties. (JAK)
Received document entitled:
3 different untimely requests for publication . placed in file.
Order granting publication filed.
pursuant to multiple requests filed by Applt cousnel and various interested parties The opinion filed 1/30/09 is order published with the exception of parts I and IIB (jak)
Note that, after a few days, the clerk got to the point of simply entering the requests in bulk, as the number of publication requests shot past 100. The League of California Cities tried to put its corporate finger in the dike, but it was too late, and the opinion was ordered published.
The City then tried to attract the Supreme Court's attention, seeking review of the intermediate court. A group called the Public Interest Law Project wrote to the Supreme Court asking that the now published opinion be de-published. Intriguingly, that request did not urge that the appellate court got it wrong, but that the case was only about how the City of Patterson had screwed up in applying one specific development agreement and that other cities would not do that and that therefore there was no need for this opinion to see the light of day.
But there was a need for published appellate authority. According to the letter seeking de-publication, more than 170 California communities have affordable housing requirements. As the Court of Appeal pointed out here, such requirements may be satisfied in a number of ways. That is why the fee is called an "in lieu" fee; it is in lieu of actually building the affordable housing units. In this case, for example, the options were:
"(1) build affordable housing units; (2) develop senior housing within the project; (3) obtain a sufficient number of affordable residential unit credits from other residential developments within City; or (4) pay an in-lieu fee at the time the building permit is issued for a market rate housing unit." (171 Cal.App.4th at 890.)
The only extant published opinion was decided after a demurrer was sustained and dealt with the facial validity of the ordinance. (Homebuilders Assn. of Northern California v. City of Napa, 90 Cal.App.4th 188 [2001].) The Patterson opinion discussed the mode of analysis necessary when an as-applied challenge is made and tried on the merits. Because of the publication of the opinion, all parties to such controversies now have judicial guidance, which is usually a good thing.
The California Supreme Court denied review and refused to de-publish the opinion.

Chances are if you had a hard time understanding Bob Dylan's lyrics at his concert Tuesday night to re-open the , you can thank the legendary musician's famous raspy voice.
When started planning the renovations for the , one item included in sprucing up the building was a state-of-the-art sound system. On Tuesday, the upgrade was in effect, as Dylan & His Band could be heard clearly throughout the theater, save for the occasionally jumbled and raspy lyric.
While the general admission floor in front of the stage was packed for the sold-out show, there were still room to move around a bit. There was also a good deal of room on the floor off to the sides and toward the back. One of the bar areas in a few steps up from the floor, and while there was a steady stream of people heading to the bar throughout the show, the bar area didn't ever feel overly packed.
Up top in the balcony, Dylan & His Band could still be heard loudly. There are also six boxes with seats.
Another upgrade Shapiro made in the theater was to the lighting system, and while there were some shots projected up on the domed ceiling, the full extent of the new system, as Shapiro talked about leading up to the opening, wasn't on display just yet. That could've been the artist's choice for this particular show, though.
A line of about 50 people waited before doors opened at 6:30 p.m., and once the venue started allowing people in, the line moved quickly. The will call lines got a bit long, however, especially within an hour of showtime.
The inside of the theater looks eloquent, with renovations made to the moulding and other parts of the theater, new carpet laid down and fixing up the red velvet seats.
While a theater, the venue still has a fairly nice and intimate feel, similar to that of the Wellmont Theater in Montclair, NJ.
The next show at the newly opened Capitol was Friday night, when the Roots and Bob Weir played at 8 p.m. The show was a benefit for HeadCount, non-partisan organization that uses music to register voters and raise social consciousness.

If this is realy a bgu in lwIP, I'd love to fix it for 1.4.1 (depending on what changes are needed). _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?36153> _______________________________________________ Nachricht gesendet von/durch Savannah http://savannah.nongnu.org/

Spotted: Keegan Allen Cute and Casual at the Premiere of Brave (PHOTO)
We're used to seeing him in club clothes these days, with all of his recent nights out in West Hollywood, but we're just as keen on Keegan Allen (Toby Cavanaugh) of Pretty Little Liars with this laid-back look.
The PLL star stepped out earlier in the week (June 18) for Film Independent's 2012 Los Angeles Film Festival premiere of Brave. He was cleanly shaven and wore a green t-shirt, jeans, and gray shoes while posing for pics on the red carpet. What a hunk.
What could possibly be cuter than the Keegs in play clothes on a red carpet? Funny you should ask! The badass actor was spotted riding a motorcycle in LA earlier in the week. Yep, Keegan on a bike. With a helmet. And sunglasses. Get hotter, we dare you.
Catch an all-new episode of PLL on Tuesday, June 26 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC Family.

Stacy Morasco is a desperate woman. Rex and Gigi don't know yet that she miscarried Rex's baby ... and if she has any chance of getting Rex back -- especially now that Rex and Gigi has resolved to stay together forever -- she's gotta act fast! Her stripper friend Kim comes up with the most logical solution: get pregnant by someone else and pass the baby off as Rex's. (Duh! Why didn't we think of that?!)
So who's the lucky sperm donor? Stacy doesn't have much luck with her first two choices: Kyle and Fish. They've got their own problems to deal with -- what with Fish clinging to a heterosexual identity that's a total lie. But he may not be able to hold onto it for too long when he sees Kyle buddy-ing up with another guy.
So what's Stacy to do? Target Schuyler -- who is still pining over Gigi, of course. And if he's not ready and willing ... Stacy will pull out all the stops to make sure he's at least very, very able.
could someone please tell me how Stacy was 6wks preg. when she sleped with Rex a few days before she had her fall down the stairs. What do they do wear the same close for 6 wks? If she was preg it would make sence it was Fishes since they did the deed-- the night she came into town. Come on people think about it.....
i haven't watched in 3 weeks because of stacy..and i see i'm not missing anything here...so she lost the baby and now she gonna try to get knocked up...lmfao..im done til she is gone from the show...so sad really that i will miss seeing jess and brody, vicki, charlie and the rest of the favorites cuz of the h. bag
I totally agree get rid of Stacy or at least get a different actress the one now sucks and would like to see Todd and Marty hook up again.
we already know the deal with stacy. storyline is all repition. i'm thinking of not watching anymore. now stacy has a baby by another guy and when it's time 4 dna testing she'll probably use shane's and do the ol' switcheroo like with the stemcells and again as stacy and rex become closer and closer gigi will hate rex until the bottom falls out but once again and schuy or who ever will want their kid. or blackmail stacy with it.---NOW ONCE AGAIN I CAN'T STRESS IT ENOUGH HOW YOU SHOW WRITERS/PRODUCERS REALLY MESSED UP LETTING FORBES MARCH GO!!!! GIVE HIM A RAISE AND A SWEET DEAL 2 RETURN. SO INSTEAD OF ANOTHER GUY WHO'S HIS BROTHER AND OBSESSED WITH JESS IT COULD'VE REALLY HAVE BEEN "NASH"! WE WANT NO NASH SUBSTITUTES PLEASE! FORBES OR BE DONE WITH IT!!!
I have been watching OLTL for 30 years I see it getting more and more STUPID, Stacy let,s see a miscarriage, never had to go to a hosiptal, what she will have sex, and boom be pregrant, YEA RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I am beyond over Jessica, I don't care what is going on with her I just want her off my screen for a long time.
There is just WAY to much Stacy on these days, and I see this week it is going to be an overload Stacy crapfest. I'm so ready for her to leave Llanview and go back to Vegas or just anywhere. Just get her the heck off OLTL.
It's a shame that you have this Mayoral campaign coming up and it's actually like an afterthought, it could be really good if there were more lead into it and it just not showing up one day.
Not enough Viki, Charlie, Jared, Natalie, Brody, Jessica, Clint, Nora, and Matthew on for me. Now those are the ones I'd love to see front and center instead of the Stacy show.
i love that Madame Delphina is retuening. I hate Stacy, someone has to bust her- and quick.

Make a Diaper Cake Biz (http://www.makeadiapercake.biz ) is famous for making "diaper cakes" from baby blankets and diapers. But at this time of year, it's fun to get creative and make spectacular 4th of July cakes. Any party will be a sure hit when a beach towel theme related to the 4th of July or solid colors like red, white and blue.
Here's how to create your 4th of July Cake that's perfect for kids and adults too:
Supplies You'll Need:
· Ribbon, or plastic wide ribbon they sell at dollars stores for outside decorating.
· Towel
· Shred
· Party Poppers
· Glow Sticks
· Sparklers
· Candy
· Snakes
· Cups Or Mugs ( Related to 4th of July)
These are just some suggestions. Use your imagination and create a fun filled Fourth Of July Cake.
Now follow these steps:
1. To start, fold the towel(see template in diaper cake ebook). To make your cake more stable, take some poster board and cut it the height of the cake. Make the poster board into a round circle and insert into cake center.
2. If you wish you could take more hand towels, cloth napkins, and roll them to fit inside your towel cake. In using cloth napkins you can then find napkin rings and use those to decorate the outside of your creation as well.
3. Fill center with shred. Pack this down well and take the ribbon and run it around the outside of cake, pin or glue ends in the back of cake.
4. Now the fun part. Take your other ribbon, the one with the blue stars and cut them into squares about 6 by 6 inches. Fan them and then wrap ribbon around the center. Pull tight and tie. Glue these onto the outside of cake.
5. To arrange items in your cake, make little holes in shred and began to insert items starting with heavy items in back of cake. Take out some glow sticks and stand them up like candles. Do the same with sparklers. Put poppers in front laying them down, and just fill in empty spaces with whatever else you have be it candy, cups and so on. Think about what your family and friends enjoy and include those.
That's it. A perfect 4th of July cake can now be made for your family and friends.

Your name is Alex Marshall. You are a reporter for the Morning Telegraph and run a column with your parter James Griffin. Several weeks ago James took a trip to visit an old mansion located somewhere in the dense forest of the Bear River mountains. According to information sent to him by an anonymous source the mansion is owned by a small family who claim to have experienced high levels of paranormal activity over the years, and were interested in exposing this activity to the wider public. You have not heard from James in over three weeks, he telephoned to let you know he had arrived in the local village and planned to venture to the mansion the next day, and have heard nothing from him since. He only planned to stay for a maximum of four days, after which he would return to the office with his story and any 'evidence' he might have gathered. You have decided to go to the mansion yourself, a dear friend is missing and you cant rest until his disappearance is solved.

There a number of reasons that account for the new ABCD formulation. One is that "India" is less alien and carries far less negative baggage than it once did. A society once associated with sati and poverty is today about software and 9 per cent economic growth.
Says Deepa Iyer, Washington DC-based head of community advocacy group South Asian American Leaders for Tomorrow, "It's chic to be South Asian. It's confused itself into popular culture, music literature." This has made identity easier for young Indian-Americans. "I hate to feed this, but it's because hot in the mainstream to be Indian. And this helps Indian youth identity," admits Annette Seecharan of the New York-area South Asian Youth Association. "For the general population, Indian is no longer such an anomaly."
India is also creeping into US popular culture. "Now Target has a 'bazaar' area where it sells an India look with Asian influenced furniture and stuff," says 20-year-old University of Maryland student Neha Singhal, referring to a US department store chain. However, says Sunaina Maira of the University of California-Davis and author of a book on Indian-American youth culture, Desis in the House: "There is finally some appreciation of 'modern' India, but it is still a view largely shaped by American economic needs. It is ignorant of much of the diversity and complexity of (Indian) society."
A better sense of India and its promise has also made life easier for Indian-Americans.
In the past, young desis were hemmed in by their parents' definitions of Indian values.
Even among themselves, says Maira, they set up "a narrow set of markers" designed to define who was "really" Indian or not. For example: did you know an Indian language, watch Hindi movies or hang out with other desis. Regular visits to India and exposure to how India is changing have helped break such mental shackles.

We have become very poor, poor through our experience of life. Here nothing is attained without doing, so we have become very narrow-minded. We cannot think that enlightenment could be attained without doing. Our poverty cannot even imagine it.
But we are not poor. This is why Janak says, "Oh!" I am amazed! I bow down to myself. "I bow down to myself," means both the devotee and the divine are within me. To say "both" is not right; there is only one within me, and mistakenly I think he is a devotee. When I realize this error, I know him as the divine.
Think of it this way: you have two chairs and you put them in a room, then you put two more chairs in the room and count them, mistakenly getting five. But in the room there are only four. If you mistakenly count five, or six, or fifty, the number of chairs in the room does not become five or six or fifty. There are four chairs, whether you count three or you count five. Only you know about your three or five; it doesn't make any difference to the chairs, they are still exactly four.
Your thinking to seek the divine is your three or five. The divine is already attained, the chairs are exactly four! Whenever you find out the right calculation will you think, "Oh, but before there were five chairs, now they have become four" – will you think this way? No, you will think, "I was mistaken: there were always four, I had counted five. The error was only in addition."
The error is not existential, the error is only in memory. The error is not existential, the error is only in your arithmetic. This error is in your understanding.
This is why Ashtavakra says there is no question of doing. To make these five chairs into four one doesn't have to take one out. Or, if you counted three you don't need to bring one in from outside to make four – there are four chairs already. It is only an error of addition. Add it correctly. When the addition is correct, then would you think that it was without cause that the three chairs became four? Without cause five chairs became four? No, you would laugh. You would think, "It was not a question of becoming, they already were, the error was only in thinking. The error was only mental, not existential."
If you take yourself to be a devotee it is an error in addition. This is why Janak can say, "Oh!" I bow down to myself! What an idiot I have been! How amazing that I had gone astray in my own illusions. I did not know what always was, but knew what has never been. I saw a snake in a rope. I saw silver in mother of pearl. I saw an illusion of an oasis in the play of light. I saw what was not! "What is" was hidden in this hallucination, in this maya, and I did not see it."

When she needed to hear his voice, Angela Rivera would call his cellphone.
For more than three years after Maj. Eduardo Caraveo, 52, was killed in the Nov. 5, 2009, shooting rampage, Rivera kept her husband's account going so she wouldn't lose his outgoing message. "My only comfort was to call his cellphone to hear his voice," Rivera said Monday during the sentencing hearing of convicted Fort Hood shooter Maj. Nidal Hasan.

I guess Victoria's Secret hired Mariah Carey's retouchers when they decided to put Candice Swanepoel in the 2010 spring/summer swimsuit catalog, because she looks like a damn cartoon character in that picture. It's a shame, because she's naturally gorgeous, but they really went at her with the layering and the Gaussian Blurring. It didn't take this much computer imaging to create the goddamn Na'vi.

These would be so much hotter without the photoshopping. Seriously, wtf? it's not like she needs it.
Because she looks more "plastic" when she's photo-shopped and not only Victoria's Secret, but every major corporation wants you to think about plastics and polymers because just about every product is manufactured from the stuff. It also comes from petroleum products and therefore the richest and most powerful are behind this scheme.
I hope this B.S. helps everyone cope.

Title: Americque Septentrionale (California as an Island -- First Edition!)
Map Maker: Nicholas Sanson
Place / Date: Paris / 1657
Coloring: Outline Color
Size: 10 x 8 inches
Condition: VG
Price: SOLD
Inventory ID: 27359
Seminal map of North America and the Great Lakes, which would influence the cartography of the region for the next 100 years and one of the earliest printed maps to focus solely on North America.
Along with Sanson's Folio map issued a year earlier, this map includes many firsts and changes of great note. The Rio Grande is shown draining into the Mer Vermelio (Sea of Cortez) rather than the Gulf of Mexico. Much improvement in the drainage of the Great Lakes and St Lawrence.
The map draws heavily on the Jesuit explorations to the west and the travels of the French Fur Traders. Greater detail shown in Hudson Bay than in earlier maps. Calfiornia is shown as an island, with excellent detail in the Southwest. Cibola and Conibas are named, as are the Apaches regions.
The Mississippi is not yet well charted, coming prior to La Salle's reports. The classic open Great Lakes from Sanson's North American map are shown in fine detail. From the 1657 edition of Sanson's L'Amerique en Plusieurs Cartes Nouvelles…
Condition Description: Old Color. Minor foxing.

Panama Economy - 2003 http://www.theodora.com/wfb2003/panama/panama_economy.html SOURCE: 2003 CIA WORLD FACTBOOK Economy - overview: Panama's economy is based primarily on a well-developed services sector that accounts for three-fourths of GDP. Services include operating the Panama Canal, banking, the Colon Free Zone, insurance, container ports, flagship registry, and tourism. A slump in Colon Free Zone and agricultural exports, the global slowdown, and the withdrawal of US military forces held back economic growth in 2000-02. The government has been backing public works programs, tax reforms, new regional trade agreements, and development of tourism in order to stimulate growth.
NOTE: The information regarding Panama on this page is re-published from the 2003 World Fact Book of the United States Central Intelligence Agency. No claims are made regarding the accuracy of Guinea Geography 2003 information contained here.

Southern Pacific
Southern Pacific
Southern Pacific formed in 1983 around vocalist Tim Goodman, guitarist John McFee, drummer Keith Knudsen, bassist Jerry Scheff, and keyboardist Glenn D. Hardin. Both McFee and Knudsen were ex-Doobie Brothers; this rock & roll background would continue to tarnish for some the band's country-rock sound. Despite the adversity, Southern Pacific secured a deal with Warner, who issued its self-titled debut in 1985. A mixed bag, the album featured Tom Petty-penned rock songs alongside more countrified material from songwriters like Rodney Crowell. Former CCR bassist Stu Cook replaced Scheff after the first record; Kurt Howell, who had played with Crystal Gayle, took Hardin's place behind the keyboard. The refurbished Southern Pacific lineup issued Killbilly Hill in 1986, and the album's cover of Bruce Springsteen's "Pink Cadillac" was a minor hit. Goodman departed then, to be replaced by vocalist David Jenkins. He was onboard for 1988's Zuma, which included Southern's biggest hit, "New Shade of Blue," but left soon after, leaving only McFee, Knudsen, Cook, and Howell. The quartet issued County Line in 1989, but it was Southern Pacific's last gasp. Warner released a final greatest-hits collection in 1991. McFee and Knudsen returned to the Doobies; Cook toured with Doug Clifford as Cosmo's Factory; and Howell formed a group called Burnin' Daylight. ~ Johnny Loftus, Rovi

The Union Cares program is continuing its quest to help those in need.
This month the city is collecting donations for the Henry Hosea House, an interchurch organization located at 901 York St., Newport.
According to city events coordinator Karen Franxman, the organization is a soup kitchen that provides one hot meal a day. Hosea House provides meals on weeknights, while volunteers serve meals on the weekends, Franxman said.
Franxman said she has worked with the organization before.
"I just know the good they do and what they provide and know they extend out to Boone County also," she said.
The organization served nearly 5,000 meals during the month of August, executive director Karen Yates said.
That's the largest amount of meals Yates said she has ever served in a month.
"If we get a lot of people to give a little, it goes a long way," Yates said.
Union Cares is a good way for city leaders to "let people know where they can help," Yates said.
Right now, the organization needs instant drink mixes, desserts and any type of fresh or canned vegetables and fruit, Franxman said.
Those interested in donating can drop items off at the Union City Building, 1843 Mt. Zion Road, Union, contact Franxman at firstname.lastname@example.com or contact the Hosea House.
More information about the Union Cares program can be found on the city's website.

Snarks are blue and purple scaled fish inspired by The Hunting of the Snark poem by Lewis Carroll. While they do appear to be normal fish, they possess leg-like limbs. Alice first encounters these fish when she is in the Vale of Tears.
The Snarks appear as giants thanks to Alice's miniature size at the time. They can attack Alice if she stays in water for too long, but can also spit at her with venom if she is on land.
Lava Snarks Edit
They have lava-dwelling cousins called Lava Snarks. Lava Snarks are just as weak as the normal Snark, but they possess extra ability: Their tongues are sticky and extendable enough to grab Alice and toss her into the lava. Snarks also bite persistently and consistently. A group of Snarks is something that should be avoided, as while a single throw of the knife can kill a snark, this can bring about unnecessary vulnerability.

Hello all,
I wonder since a while about the distance numbers displayed in IL2/AEP and Pacific Fighters. Maybe the community can help me on this.
When I see a distance icon displayed over another aircraft, like "1.0", or "0.5" etc, are this distances in meters? And if so, does "1.0" mean "100" and "0.5" 50? What system do this numbers follow?
Thanks for any help,

Answers to Common Questions
Why is the Investment in Shared Ministries fund important?
The cost of being a denomination and of coordinating, organizing and motivating the effort of local churches in national outreach is funded through the this area of the budget.
In addition to administrative concerns of the Fort Wayne, Indiana office, funds in this account impact church planting, ethnic ministries, men's and women's programs, compassion and benevolent ministries, Bethel College, insurance and many other areas. Local church support materials, Growing a Healthy Church workshops, Missionary Church Today and Priority all depend on the Investment in Shared Ministries fund. In fact, excluding world missions, this account supports every aspect of denominational ministry and administration!
Why is a 2% investment necessary to fund this account?
When the Missionary Church, Inc. was formed in 1969, it had a unified budget that cared for the total denominational administrative and overseas costs. But when the missionary share support system was developed, funds generated through shares were designated only for overseas ministry. The budget was no longer unified. As more and more money was committed to "shares," the Investment in Shared Ministries area of the budget received less and less.
In 1987, churches were encouraged to set aside 2% of their income to what had always been part of the unified budget. By 1991, only 13% of denominational churches were supporting the fund at this level and over 50% were not supporting it at all. To insure funding, it was necessary to adopt the 2% investment and participation has increased dramatically.
How is the 2% investment calculated?
The 2% is figured on total contribution income on the annual report form submitted to district and denominational offices. Each year the denominational office provides this calculation to assist each church in planning their following year's budget.
What about inflated income?
When a church experiences inflated income due to a building program, bequests, etc. it can only utilize the 20% maximum increase (over the preceding year's assessment) for three continuous calendar years. After the third year, the church must revert to the full 2% funding.
What if a church can't give 2%?
Not only is the 2% giving an investment, it's also a realistic goal for which churches should strive. Some give 2% while others are able to give as much as 10%. In isolated situations, a church may find it is impossible to invest the full 2%. If your church finds itself in this dilemma, please contact the denominational office to negotiate a lesser assessment goal.
