Thank you to all the translators and editor. For the past few months this story had been my faithful companion during my lunch hours.
No words can express my gratitude. Thank you.
Any suggestions what other wuxia novel to read next?
One of the best novels ever! Thank you so much for the translation!
this is just a quick, friendly reminder/bump, that the translated material is still not yet updated on the Smiling Proud Wanderer unabrigaged link,
the link to the unbrigaged post is
could HHuang please edit the post? or can someone post a new Unabrigaged thread (completed this time) if HHuang is inactive.
I would do it my self, except that i dont know how to make them : P
thanks in advanced to whom ever helps, or at least spread the message xD
This is a plea to whom ever is in-charge of wuxiapedia to update the translations into it (or else start trying to get permission to put the content from the translators/editors).
Thanks DarkshineKnight for the reminder. I made a promise to Pokit that I'll get the final edits by year's end and it is getting really close to that! And yes, I have been reminding myself too.
I will update the edits by year's end. I hope that's a good timeline for everyone.
As for why I have been missing.... I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, got Rheumatoid Arthritis just days after giving birth (with no family history), was pretty much incapable of getting out of bed for two months and am still continuing to be slightly disabled by this problem even now. My baby will be 1 year old in 2 weeks time! I'm now looking for a job -- rather updating my portfolio so that I can look for a job. Of course, taking care of a soon to be toddler isn't eating cake either but I'm really enjoying it. My baby girl is a real blessing for us. I know mothers are really biased but she has such a sweet nature that sometimes I think she's an angel descended from heaven (I exaggerate). I've attached a picture of her here. She got a bit of smudge on her nose because she fell and hit her nose bridge and it was just healing when this picture was taken.
Thanks everyone. Sorry I've been away for so long but I hope to post before long.
congratulations! on the baby!!
rheumatoid arthritis? Must be so unlucky!
by saying that you cant get outa bed is it joint pains? or other pains?
im not really entirely sure about the finacial backgrounds etc, however, what ever medications are available, please treat them, as the degradition of the joints during the inflamation is severe, and the cartilages on the joints are permanently damaged.
not only is the hard tissue and joints at risk, RA also includes the auto immune attacks on connective tissues in the organs, which can often be life threatening, please becareful!
with you all the best (pst, could u post the unedited versions into the unabriged thread first? and then delete/re-edit the post later after you've edited?
btw, just like to express my thanks once again ^^
: / lol i just realized, join date, feb 2004, only 73 posts lol, averaging less than 20 posts a year o.O

Thanks for the photo. It was a really cute baby.
Hope that you will get well soon.
Chanced upon this forum. My sincerest appreciation to all the translators. What a wonderful novel. But there are some questions I will like to post regarding the sunflower/evil resisting sword skill.The genious jinyong has intoduced this ironical skill in the novel - One has to pay the ultimate price(loose one's manhood) in exchange for martial arts prowess! This is akin to the western equivalent of selling your soul to the devil.
But what is preventing a female in learning and mastering this art? Then u have the best of both worlds---- the great skill without the sacrifice.
What a cute baby! I hope that you will soon be restored to full health.
You may not agree, but it's established fact
Huang Rong saw that he was in good spirits so she laughed, "OK! We'll doAnd this was 16 years after Huang Rong gave birth to Guo Xiang and Guo Polu, and some thirty-something years after giving birth to Guo Fu. If Huang Rong's internal energy was still depleted after all that time, then how much more so for hhaung? I'd recommend that hhaung puts herself on a diet of snake gallbladders and snow ginseng to recover her vitality, or she won't be ready for the next Huashan tournament in a few years' time.
as you say. You take this Snow Ginseng; I think it's worth three to five
years of training."
Guo Jing said, "No! You've had three children; your internal strength is
weakened, so you should take it."
The husband and wife were very loving and kept pushing the Ginseng to
each other for half a day. Guo Jing finally said, "There will be fierce
and brutal battles in the coming days and many of our friends will be
injured. This snow Ginseng can save many lives, so let's keep it for then."

Congratulations hhuang! Your daughter is so cute!
I don't really know much of anything about diseases or medicine or anything like that but I hope that you feel better soon.
"I'd call you a genius... but I'm in the room."-Doctor Who
Pannonian, I love your suggestion! Thanks to everyone for wishing me good health. I am happy to report that I am improving gradually. I am sticking to a diet (no wheat, dairy, soy, or eggs which I have developed an allergy to somehow) and I am taking cod-liver oil daily (which reduces my inflammation dramatically). In addition, I have acupuncture and herbs (found a great Chinese doctor by luck). My RA factor was 500 when I started out but now it's down to 70. It's troubling of course that my joints are being destroyed or were destroyed somewhat. But because I am breast-feeding, I can't really take and don't want to take strong immunosuppressant drugs. So, it's more of a gradual improvement overtime with perhaps some joint damage rather than have a suppressed immune system with no inflammation and yet plenty of chances for other problems. Oh well.
My baby is now becoming more independent. She just turned 1 yr old and she's wanting to feed herself and go everywhere she pleases. :-) Thanks everyone again!
Thanks Lanny Lin, Pokit and HHuang. Words cannot express my gratitude and appreciation for your hard works and your sacrifices of time and energy in translating this interesting Wuxia novel, SPW.
I hope the success and welfare in life for you.
Thanks again

The Federal Reserve released its minutes from its most recent FOMC meeting they came out at 2 PM eastern what do we see a reverse S&P and the NASDAQ immediately turned positive.
-- more quantitative easing -- large scale asset purchases to prop up the markets was discussed no action was taken we know that but should the Fed.
Make a move.
Joseph -- -- his senior fellow at the Peterson institute for international economics.
And a former Federal Reserve monetary affairs associate director he wants more fed action.
-- -- on the other side is Oppenheimer Funds chief economist he thinks now is not the time.
For quantitative easing before -- now not let me get to Joseph first so we have the first two rounds of quantitative easing.
Both had very salute -- -- positive effects on the markets that's not why they should be doing at some people would say correct Joseph.
That's correct it's not about the markets it's about employment and inflation.
We're we're really have.
Less employment that we need an inflation is about where should be a regular low.
But it one thing that we didn't see it was more employment in the wake of QE1 and QE2 Joseph.
So why a third round.
You know it.
There have been studies that argue that it QE1 had particularly large effect on employment so I guess -- some disagreement out there QE2 is quite small operation to -- is quite small.
I think that they've been really quite timid for the past two years you know what.
You're right we should be fair on that we did see some positive.
Employment growth and then -- kind of slow down after January so.
Yes up until a certain point we started to see some action and at least were not contracting.
I'll get to Jerry your side of this and now -- take the other side I guess the question would be why not when we still aren't seeing businesses step up to the plate to hire.
Maybe it is the role of the Fed to continue to do something because they have the ability to do so.
Well they they have the mandate to do so I'm not sure they have the ability to do so -- concern about monetary policy it's kind of like penicillin.
You know it works really well for pneumonia that's 2008.
But it's not very good for treating the common cold it's.
And I just don't think it's the right medicine right now I don't think monetary power policy as well as it's been applied in the past as powerful as it is.
Is gonna help the economy very much and -- -- Under current conditions.
Joseph if the first two or not fit it in massive form doing it or at least having -- long tail and seeing the continued results of this.
Tell me how and what form it should take if we were to see QE3.
Well I would recommend that QE3 that would be targeted towards the mortgage market.
In -- particular I think the Fed should really.
Announce a range of mortgage rates it would like to see which it -- enforced by a limited purchases of mortgage backed securities.
And that and a and a deadline of time horizon over which that would be in effect again people who wanna get into the housing market.
Some certainty that for good six to twelve months.
-- financing will be there are at a super low rate and -- should give encouragement enthusiasm to really get housing back on underway.
Jerry -- that work well -- you don't White House you don't.
First so let's -- housing is getting better rates are very low Jacob Joseph makes a very important point about the availability of mortgage lending.
As opposed to the rate at which mortgage mortgages can be made right now the wait is it an issue that's what the Fed -- -- for this presumably effect.
The problem is the availability it's really hard to qualify.
And a lot of homes are currently underwater so it's difficult to refinance of the appraisals aren't there yet if you have that the Fed can't influence.
The price of housing.
Except by lowering interest rates I don't think mortgage rates going lower would make bail out would make more people qualified substantially more people qualify for mortgage loans.
We're at historic -- now yeah so will be watching this gentlemen thank you both and I and I know both the view will be canceling all plans August 31 went -- helpful when Jackson Hole has its big meeting in Federal Reserve chief Ben Bernanke speaks so we'll talk again thank you so much actually is.
Joseph and you and -- -- -- senior fellow at the Peterson Institute -- -- Oppenheimer Funds chief economist.

She isn't doing anything major? Are you serious? A Pepsi endorsement is major? She got other major deals too. 360 deal or not, no artists is seeing all their sales money.

Me AZlll O ON Vol. XXXVII Loyola University, New Orleans, La., April 29, 1960 No. 18 Maroon Chooses Top' Candidates -P re-Election Notes A student council must be a student*' council. In other words, it lust be born and nourished from within the membership of the entire university. This means that come Monday and Tuesday each Loyolan should vote for the candidates who will best represent him in the next school year. The student council is not a "glory" job. Anyone selected for office accepts a big responsibility; a responsibility which entails criticism and praise where criticism and praise are honestly due. The Maroon believes that Loyola's 1959-60 student council has not been too successful in terms of accomplishments. We realize that this has not been due to a lack of adequate "man-power," and that the councN has tried hard to utilize this asset in attempting to solve the parking, cafeteria and junior-senior prom problems. But "to attempt" is not "to accomplish." Following these remarks, you will find simulated voting-blanks containing all candidates who were nominated for office. The Maroon has indicated its choices for the student council in these blanks, also. We do not demand that you vote for these students. Yet.s we do demand that you study the candidate*, carefully. This means considering such things as platform statements, past performances and records, and future potentialities. Don't make these elections a popularity contest. Talk to each candidate; ask questions. . The Maroon has picked "beauty queens," "sport's stars," "nice guys" and the like only when such people deserve to be picked. Our final decisions have come only after a study of the worth of each candidate. (Note: The X-marks indicate The Maroon's 1960-61 student council (elections. Law returns were too late for comment but results are listed in election story.) Student Council Elections Set Monday, Tuesday On Campus Polls Open II a.m.-2 p.m. In Colleges Student council elections will be held Monday and Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in all of the schools and colleges on the campus. Students in the college of artjs and sciences and business administration will use voting machines to vote for their choice for student council. Students will vote for one president for their school or college and a respective number of representatives.The number of representatives for each school are as follows: A&S, five sophomores and five juniors; BA two sophomores and one junior; law, three representatives; music, one sophomore and one junior; pharmacy, two representatives; dentistry, one sophomore and one junior, and evening division, two representatives.

The program will be the 13th offering of the Loyola Concert Series this season and is free of charge and open to the public, the Rev. C. J. McNaspy, S.J., music dean, announced. Highlight of the program will be the premiere performance of Karel Huia'i "Divertimento for Brass and Percussion" by the brass ensemble under the direction of George Jansen, university band director.

WITTE LECTURE Dr. Raymond P. Witte, director of evening division, addressed the Port Chapter of the National Secretary Association on "Upgrading the Secretary" last Wednesday night in Lake Charles, La. "Boss Night" as it was called was held at the Pioneer Club in Lake Charles and attended by the Secretaries, Bosses and their Wives. $1 Million Gift A warded University For Future Site A gift of approximately $1 million has been made to Loyola by J. Edgar Monroe, New Orleans businessman and civic leader, it was announced by the Very Rev. W. Patrick Donnelly, S.J., university president. Under the terms of the gift, the funds have been used to purchase a 500-acre tract of land in Jefferson Parish as a "future, possible site for the university," Father Donnelly said. The tract lies in the city of Kenner, La., between the Veterans Highway and Lake Pontchartrain near the Jefferson Parish-St. Charles Parish line. It is approximately 12 miles from the New Orleans downtown area. The property was purchased through A. K. Roy, Inc., Realtors in Jefferson Parish. A rectangularshaped property, it measures approximately 2300 feet and 1% miles in length with a 500-foot frontage on Lake Pontchartrain. Mr. Monroe said: "The purpose of the gift was to enable Loyola to acquire adequate land for a future possible site in the event the university should in the futurefuture find it necessary or desirable to build part or all of its administrative, academic and professional buildings on the site. He stated that, "Educational institutions, like cities and towns, date their span of life not in years but in decades and centuries. Accordingly, planning for the future of educational institutions must extend over a half-century or more." "Looking to Loyola's future, I am happy to assist the university in providing a future possible site," he said, "should the university in the distant future deem it necessary for the proper education of young men and women of the nation." The donor, a native of New Orleans, is president of Canal Assets, Inc. He is director of Electric 500-Acre Tract Bought Bond and Share of New York and Southdown Sugars, Inc. "I feel confident this area will enhance in value so that this property, which I have had a part in helping the university acquire, will be worth many millions of dollars to the university in the years ahead, which asset will be of tremendous value to the university in enabling it to reach its goal of higher education." In accepting the gift, Father Donnelly laid: "We with to thank Mr. Monroe for this magnificent gift which will contribute tremendously to the future development of Loyola University."Its benefits will continue from generation to generation and will extend to literally thousands of young men and women who will come to Loyola for their intellectual, spiritual and cultural development."Father Donnelly said the uni- UNIVERSITY DONATION—J.

Men's Tennis - Simpson College
Date: | March 3, 2012 |
Results: | 8-1 |
Location: | Pella, Iowa |
The Luther men's tennis team got back on the winning track with a pair of victories on Saturday, March 3 in Pella, Iowa. The Norse faced the Simpson Storm in the opening match and walked away with an 8-1 win to improve to 7-3 overall and 3-0 in the IIAC.
Nick Mozena and James Ayer had a tight battle at No. 1 doubles with each team holding serve until the score was 6-6. Mozena and Ayer were then able to string together a break before holding serve to close out an (8-6) win against Alex Hook and Adam Summitt. The Norse cruised to (8-0) wins at No. 2 and No. 3 doubles. Quinn Foley and Sam Cychosz defeated Blake Billings and Jeff Armstrong at No. 2 while Matt Bellio and Matt Knutson beat Mike Rundle and Brandon Christensen at No. 3.
Bellio and Knutson also won easily in singles to clinch the match for the Norse. Bellio won (6-0, 6-0) over Armstrong at No. 4 while Knutson earned a (6-1, 6-0) win against Rundle. Cychosz played his first varsity singles match of the spring and scored a (6-0, 6-0) victory over Christensen at No. 6. Foley was a (6-2, 6-1) winner at No. 3 against Billings, and Ayer closed out a tight first set in a (7-5, 6-1) victory against Hook at No. 1. Torstein Jystad lost (7-5, 6-4) in a close match with Summitt at No. 2 to give Simpson its lone point of the match.

I'm also glad the "tint" of NEW MOON won't be so BLUE/grey. Gawd. I know it was part of the FEEL and it set up an eerie and NW look to it with all the rain, but GAWD it got old.....
The new picture looks so WARM in tone/hue/colors and so RICH. Rob is so beautiful in color..it will be SUCH A JOY to see him that way. And I think the makeup looks MUCH BETTER, don't you? From what we've seen any way. I bet Rob is glad too.
He knew it was funny...remember when he said "and the little bouffant hair"? hehehehhehee
Love you Rob.

NM Rob/Edward is definitely better than Twilight Rob/Edward. Much more mature looking and more how I pictured him in the books. Love it!!

- Babs ♥ Art+Robvador said...
you've a point there, after all he's 108 years old lol
it's just that in twilight he was dreassed like a 17 y-o and now he looks 30 (which would make him closer to my age btw :))
I don't understand why Robward is wearing the same clothes at Bella's birthday party and in Italy (if I'm not mistaken), the two episodes are months apart and Alice never lets the Cullen wear the same thing twice. thank God he takes that shirt off LOL - July 23, 2009 at 7:29 AM
- Lynda_Bluecanoe said...
I put the black and teal Edward in from of the house as my desktop, and whoa, it's had me in tears several times already, I can't look at the pained look on his face!! He really really sells that pain in ways I can't describe..haunting and heartbreaking!

LOVE IT , much better than twilight, more mature, better looking and great colors..CHRIS WEITZ IS FANTASTIC!!

Syria effects on stocks
How Would Markets React to a Syria Attack?
There's a great deal of uncertainty about whether there will be a Syria attack from the United States - but investors want to know how markets would react to such a strike.
Secretary of State John Kerry has said a Syria attack - when and if it comes - would be "extremely limited and targeted," and support for an attack is far from ironclad.

Photos of the World's Oldest Living Things
Among the organisms documented by photographer Rachel Sussman are 80,000-year-old aspen trees and 600,000-year-old bacteria
- By Joseph Stromberg
- Smithsonian magazine, January 2013
(Rachel Sussman)
Welwitschia mirablis, a plant endemic to Namibia and Angola, thrives in the extreme aridity of the Namib Desert, reaching ages upwards of 2,000 years.
"One commonality between these organisms is their tendency to live in some of the most extreme environments on Earth—deserts, polar regions and places of high altitudes or low nutrient availability," Sussman says. "They tend grow slowly, as opposed to fast and furious."

You idiots. The baobab tree is 15.4 METERS in diameter, not 154 feet in circumference! Oh, wait ...

These pictures are so beautiful. Wonderful work. So much time and effort put into these. Thank you so much for sharing.

Smithsonian is pushing the global warming hoax. What a joke. Shut down the Smithsonian and move all its contents to Las Vegas so private industry can properly display EVERYTHING without all the lies and propaganda.
Posted by Barack Obama on April 11,2013 | 06:13 PM
How did Sussman manage to avoid the bristle cone pine of the basin ranges of western america?,or for that matter some creasote shrubs in the Mojave? or yet again the mycellium of the honey mushroom in I believe ,Washington state?

I would like to echo comments by Bob Blandford & Robert Hurley. How are these things dated? Just because a clone has been around a long time doesn't mean the ramets of the clone are the same age. In the case of the birch, where is the original ortet, and has it been dated by increment cores or carbon 14 or ?? I am also of the impression that the bristlecone pine in the White Mountains known as "Methusala" is the oldest living thing (it has been dated using increment cores. How about the Anartic beech (is that Nothofagus). Is the one pictured the original ortet and has it been dated by increment core?
Posted by Ron Schmidtling on January 15,2013 | 01:44 PM
Very Interesting subject to study. I can't help but think that the majority of these things are thriving in the harshest of weather conditions because we don't want to! If we had decided to live in these places they would not have had the opportunity to live this long because we would have torn them up. Beautiful & interesting. Thanks for taking the time to capture these images.
Posted by Lindsey on January 2,2013 | 02:21 AM
Some information on exactly HOW these things were dated would be nice. Otherwise she gets an "Incomplete".
Posted by Robert Hurley on December 27,2012 | 04:56 PM
What about deep sea corals?
Posted by amanda on December 27,2012 | 10:33 AM
Very profound. I suspect the keys to human immortality amount to four basic categories: [1] Age before youth, [2] Coping with athleticism, [3] Vampirism / medicine, and [4] Highly specific adaptivity to the environment. These organisms show all of those characteristics.
Posted by N. Coppedge on December 23,2012 | 01:14 AM
Amazing! I'm so out of date, I suppose. Till now I always thought the oldest living organisms were bristlecone pines out west In the US. But They are at least several thousand years old I believe, Why aren't they Among those pictured?

An established online course in Buddhist Meditation from the serenity and insight traditions.
Please join us for one of our 12 week courses:
Vipassana Fellowship's online meditation courses have been offered since 1997 and have proven helpful to meditators in many countries around the world. The main text is based on a tried and tested format and serves as a practical introduction to samatha (tranquility) and vipassana (insight) techniques from the Theravada tradition of Buddhism. Intended primarily for beginners, the 12 week course is also suitable for experienced meditators who wish to explore different aspects of the tradition. The emphasis is on building a sustainable and balanced meditation practice that is compatible with lay life. The course is led by Andrew Quernmore, a meditation teacher for nearly 20 years and with a personal meditation practice of more than 30 years. Andrew trained with teachers in Sri Lanka and in England and has taught meditation in London colleges and at retreats in the UK, Europe and Asia. The course is delivered wholly online in our Course Campus.
"Thank you very much for the Vipassana course! ... I kept up, learned, and benefitted in what feels like a major way." - M, USA
"Impermanence! I do not like endings. Thank you so much for offering this meditation course to the world. I was so happy to find it." - S, Canada
"Hi, I have just completed the course. It was fantastic, life altering. Feel very sad that it is finished. I have now established a daily meditation practice and will try to find a group in Sydney to further my dhamma practice. Thank you, it really has been a remarkable experience. I will join the Parisa and stay in touch with this organization. I have NO complaints only gratitude. Thank you." - K, Australia
"As we near the end of the course I just want to say 'thank you' for your work on it and share some of my thinking and experience at thsi point. Ive found the different aproaches to meditation interesting and useful and have appreciated your focus on practicalities. The frequently asked questions have helped to avoid my inundating you with questions, as many people have clearly walked the path before asking them! ... I am happy that it is a practical philosophy for living an ethical life, I like the emphasis on acting skillfully, feel that individual responsibility for ones actions (rather than relying on redemption) makes sense ... Thank you for a very accessible path! - J, UK
January 2009 course:
"A year ago, I read a book on vipassana meditation which inspired me to take January 2009 course. I am Christian and come from Pakistan. I am a teacher in a high school and couldn't afford to do this course but I was accepted in the course under free Buddhist Homelands Scheme. I would like to state that the impact of the course has been phenomenal. It has changed my entire life. I AM really blessed. Brother Andrew, thank your very much indeed." - N, Pakistan.
"I live in the western part of Texas, 3-4 hours from any Sangha, and deeply appreciated your course, with the different types of meditation, and the depth of information on the elements of Buddhism. I will definitely remain connected to your program, and hopefully will have the joy of meeting you some day. Your kindness and clarity opened many doors and windows in a shuttered life, and gave further impetus to pursue the path revealed by the Enlightened One. I will commit one day at a time, one breath at a time, and with the help of your light reach some degree of insight. At times I feel suspended between the demons of lust and greed, but meditation does bring hope that these arrows may someday turn to flowers. Thanks again for a wonderful and enlightening course." -J, USA
"I just want to thank you very much for the course and everything you are doing for that and for us. So, thank you very much :-). I'm very happy and glad that I could participated the course! I have participated the course already twice before, but it is for the first time I finished it. I feel that it is vital for me to continue with meditation etc. First two attempts were not probably serious enough. Now I feel that there is no other way. I was forced to participate the course for the third time because, even if I have everything (great family, friends, good job and enough money) I don't feel happy (it is much more better now :-)). So, that is my short story. I like vipassana meditation and especially metta, mudita etc. meditations. I am very happy that these meditations are part of our training also. Thank you very much again Andrew and I wish you all the best!" - J, Czech Republic
"Many thanks for your work with the Vipassana Fellowship. I've enjoyed and greatly benefited from the course. It can be difficult to know where or how to begin this kind of practice and the availability of such a vipassana course online was just what I needed. Thanks again." - A, USA
"Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this course. Before, I was trying to develop insight without a proper base and this course gave me a necessary patience to develop concentration using the samatha techniques." - J, UK
September 2008 course:
"I was a member of your September 2008 course. Sorry for the late feedback. I should say, I am in the process of gaining wisdom and knowledge from the course. Surprisingly, during the course, I had found it hard to realise the treasure that was hidden inside the course. As the days keep progressing, and as I keep contemplating about the dhamma teachings, subtle changes in my personality keep happening. One thing for sure, this is something that is going to stay with me for my whole life. Please keep up the wonderful work that you have been doing by conducting such courses." - R, India
"Thank you very much for the course - I got a lot out of it and found it really did effect my perception of life and deepen a spiritual connection and a desire to progress further." - R, UK
"Just wanted to say thank you very much for your support during this wonderful Vipassana course. I think your vision to take a 2500 year old spiritual tradition and then teach it an authentic yet high tech. way, true to the tradition, is an outstanding achievement. I would (and do) recommend people, who are genuinely interested in establishing themselves in a Buddhist practice, to look at this Vipassana Fellowship Course. I have personally found the course to greatly assist me in the integration of the Dhamma into my life. It gives me a daily focus that shows up as equanimity, joy and purpose. " - W, Australia
"I just wanted to say you for putting on the Vipassana Fellowship course. I was excited to find an on line option that would let me explore meditation and this course certainly exceeded my expectations. ... I very much liked the daily readings ... I've always wanted to develop my ability to be more compassionate but as your basic geeky engineer it's not in my nature, although, I know I do better than a lot of people. So I thank you for helping me to focus on compassion and loving kindness as it fits with my aspirations. ... Thank you very much for the guidance you provided to myself & the others through this course. You have much to be proud of. If you ever set up a retreat in Canada or the Northern US I'd appreciate knowing as I think I might be able to muster enough courage to attend." - L, Canada
"I have been on a journey for the last three and a half years. Some steps has been the logical effects of prior events, others like this class have been pure leaps of faith. I want to again thank you for making this leap more meaningful then I could have every hoped!" - P, USA

PABLO, MT - There's still no word on the identification of the human remains that were found Nov. 3 in a wooded area near Pablo.
The remains were taken to the State Medical Examiner in Missoula with authorities saying that the remains appear to be those of an adult Caucasian male.
The partial skeleton remains were found by two children walking in a wooded area.
Karen Sargeant with the Lake County Sheriff's Office says deputies from their office along with Tribal Police responded to the scene.

My mother (90) and my father (91) both got the shot and both got the flu. She ended up with pneumonia, and he recovered in 3 days.
They told me I was stupid not to get this since I was pregnant. So I got the shot.I have never been so sick in my life. I was almost hospitalized and wound up with borderline pnemonia."But I got the SHOT!" Kept going through my head.Never again.I was sick from the day after Thanksgiving until the end of January (with days 5-12 of the bug being absolutely unbearable).
I read the first sentence, and then later down the article it says:Older people have weaker immune systems that don´t respond as well to flu shots. That´s why a high-dose version was recently made available for those 65 and older. The new study was too small to show whether that made a difference this year.Well ... was this year´s flu shot only9% effective? Or is it they don´t know?
Follow the money on this crap. The only time I ever got one, I was so sick I was begging God to let me die. My RN sis in law said to run as fast as you can from this vaccine. It is a huge $$$$ maker for someone.
I got one. About 4 0r 5 years ago. Had a reaction (which they said I shouldn´t have unless I was allergic to eggs.I am not allergic to eggs. I have never taken another one.
I got a flu shot about 25 years ago and it was the ONLY time I every had the flu (I worked in a Hospital and it was mandatory). I finally decided this year that I should get one since I´m now 71 and more likely to get the flu. I had absolutely no side effects. And, I didn´t get the flu. So, who knows. I thought this article was going to say that due to these findings Medicare will not PAY for seniors to get the flu shots next year. THAT wouldn´t surprise me at all!
Read up on the nexus between HilaryCare and flu vaccines.
I have gotten the flu shot twice. Both times I got the flu. I´m not talking "stomach flu" or all the other stuff people like to call the flu. I mean "hit by a truck, you couldn´t move if you wanted to, out for at least a week" influenza. That was years ago. And I haven´t bought the propaganda since. Nor do I buy into the "well you already had the virus" scenario. Once maybe. Twice no.Now they´re pushing a new SARS virus story.Sorry. The only virus I´m worried about is the one currently in the WH. Can I get immunization against THAT?
Two of the three seniors that I know who received the flu shot got the flu. Bad. One of them has coronary artery disease and had to be hospitalized because of the flu. No one else I know got the flu shots and none of them got the flu. Is this more junk science?
My friends and I are all seniors and got the shot. None of us got the flu.And - we live in a busy city, use public transportation, shop in crowded stores. We are exposed to lots of people.We´re all fine.
Here´s my take, both sides of the coin. I am past 65. Last fall my doctor told me to get the senior citizen version of the flu shot. I had never heard of it, but the pharamicist had. It is a stronger dose.That is the shot I got. My doctor got that shot last year and still got the flu. I believe I have had a very minor case of the flu this year. Everyone is different. Keep your hands clean and away from your face.
My company demanded I get the flu shot in 1993. That year my entire family got a severe strain of flu, I did not. Every year since then we have all gotten the shot and have not had the flu. How can they say "9% effective"? Did they test 100 people who had a shot and 91 of them got the flu? Yeah, right. Leave it to the AP to find ordure to print.
Ha! I´m sure that the evildoers have on stock the cures for every disease known to have ever existed in mankind but they are under lock and key. Letting them out would dry up their "income".I am so glad that I had the good sense my entire life to never take their crap. There are so so many who wish they had never taken it, and are suffering.
Vaccines are the only consumer product for which no one other than the government has liability. The manufacturer has no liability. The distributor has no liability. The person giving you the jab has no liability. No matter if they didn´t shake the vial, didn´t refrigerate it properly, let bacteria into the production system...they have zero liability. If you are harmed by a vaccine, it is up to you to prove it in a Vaccine Court, and the deck is stacked against you.As for the 24,000 who die each year of the flu, go research the source of that statistic. You will find that the death rate hasn´t been that high in 50 years, going back to well before the flu vaccine was invented.
We sensitives to all medications who cannot tolerate the shots vaccines and medicines seem to develop a stronger natural immunity to the bacteria and viruses than those people who just go along and accept touted not so protective measures.We do however need to take precautions to stay away from exposure to the ailments as much as possible.
I got a flu shot for this year and did not have the flu. I get one most every year and they seem to work.
Never had one, never will. Administered by feds.´Nuff said.
My grandbabies got the shot. Of course, both got the flu. One got pneumonia as well and the little guy got the stomach virus as well as the flu.Terrifying time.
Only 9% effective? Is this Seblious way of invoking that provision in the death bill to kill off all the old people?

- " I only stayed one night, and was in a 4 bed mixed dorm. The environment was open, friendly, and respectful. The people at the reception will help with anything you need, and with a warm smile. This hostel is an awesome choice if you want clean, modern, and a relaxed social environment with people from all parts of the world. "

- " The hostel is very big, with two elevators and five levels, which makes you feel as if you're in a pretty unpersonal hotel. Staff are friendly though. Don't go here if you're looking for a cosy hostel, it's fine if you like no-nonsense. "

- " Stayed 5nights, really liked it. Helpful and nice staff, managed to do a lot of stuff in 6days only. Big place but nice and clean dorms with toilets&showers, only thing missing was the soap?

Owner: Blimpy Burger must move as University of Michigan buys building
Joseph Tobianski | AnnArbor.com
After nearly 60 years of serving its iconic burgers to hungry customers, Krazy Jim's Blimpy Burger restaurant plans to close on Ann Arbor's South Division Street and search for a new location.
Owner Rich Magner said a deal between the University of Michigan and the property's owner, Patricia Shafer, means he will have to close Blimpy Burger in summer 2013. He wants to find a new location for the restaurant.
Shafer is the widow of Blimpy Burger's original founder, Jim Shafer.
"I don't know what the plans are," Magner said. "But basically, in a nutshell, we will be able to operate in this location into summer 2013 and we will be trying to put a deal together and look for a new location."
Magner worked at Blimpy Burger in 1969 when he was a student. After working in other restaurants, he returned to Blimpy Burger and purchased the business in 1993.
He's known that he would have to search for a new location for several weeks, but wanted to let things sink in before telling people.
"I'm very grateful for all the support we've had over the years and the regular customers we've had," he said. "I know that I've tried to be true to the Blimpy traditions I understand people will be upset that Blimpy's will not be operating in this location, but we do hope to continue it in a different spot."
Magner said he hasn't looked at possible locations yet to relocate. He hopes to remain downtown and near the University's campus.
"I'd like to be near the University, and I'd like to be near the sports complexes, but you know, only half of my customers are students," he said.
"Because it has been here for so long, there is a large number of former students and a large number of townies who grew up on Blimpy burgers...they're Blimpy addicts."
When asked why Ann Arborites love Blimpy Burger, Magner responded: "The burgers are really good."
The restaurant, which is often packed at lunchtime and has limited seating, serves small burgers that customers can customize with extra meat and a range of toppings, including the popular fried egg. Blimpy Burger has received national attention as one of the best burger joints in America via the Travel Channel, and it was also featured on Man V. Food.
According to city records, Shafer owns the property with Blimpy Burger and two adjacent houses. Together, the properties have an assessed value of $540,900, making the estimated market value about double that. Records indicate a sale of the property has not been finalized.
Magner would not reveal the details of the deal between Shafer and the University of Michigan, but only said it was an offer "she couldn't refuse."
"This was an opportunity for her and I'm really happy for her," he said. "She has been good to me. I can't blame her in the least for taking the offer because it's very generous."
"There's no way I could counter the offer," he added.
U-M spokesperson Rick Fitzgerald declined to comment regarding the deal. The University owns a large parking lot adjacent to Blimpy Burger's building, and is currently building a $29 million addition to its Institute for Social Research building, just a block north of the site.
There are several residential structures surrounding the Blimpy Burger property, including houses at 401 and 409 East Madison Street, which are registered to former U-M athletic director Bill Martin. Two houses north of Shafer's properties are owned by David Copi and managed by Copi Properties. David's son, Sam, declined to comment when asked if they have received interest from U-M in their properties.
"At this point, we have not entered into an agreement to sell to the University of Michigan," he added.
Mayor John Hieftje told AnnArbor.com he had an indication U-M was in negotiations on the Blimpy Burger site. He said he'd rather the acquisition didn't happen.
"It saddens me," he said. "I would hope particularly that Blimpy Burger, which is kind of an icon in the community and something I've been going to since I was a teenager I would hope they could reopen somewhere, but I'd really miss them on that corner."

Don't Tell Mom But I'm Eating My Goat Cheese and Fig Ice Cream Before Dinner
October 25, 2011 - 6:02pm | by alexandraHi! I'm Alexandra and I am a new (excited, naive and food-obsessed) intern at Culture. I don't know a ton about cheese but I love to eat it and I am eager to learn more. Will has asked me to make my first blog post and I immediately thought of ice cream. Get ready for your mind to be blown.
I cannot think of a better way to savor the last few days of warm California weather than with this amazingly delicious and savory ice cream recipe. I would have never thought to pair cheese and ice cream, but I must say that this Honey Goat Cheese and Fig Swirl Ice Cream, via Erin's Food Files, not only sounds fun to make, but even more fun to eat.

with Richard O'Rourke, EducationUSA

Freddy Vs. Jason - Blu-ray Disc
Rumored and anticipated for years, the two biggest icons of the slasher genre finally meet in Freddy Vs. Jason, the eighth entry in the Nightmare on Elm Street saga and the 11th film in the Friday the 13th series, though with Jason X taking place in the future, it should be noted that the events of this film take place after the ninth film Jason Goes to Hell. And it is hell where Freddy Kreuger (Robert Englund) and Jason Voorhees (Ken Kirzinger, donning the hockey mask for the first time in a controversial snub against series veteran Kane Hodder) finally become acquainted. Banished there for eternity, Freddy devises a plan to manipulate Jason into continuing his work, hacking up the teenagers of Elm Street. All goes well at first until Jason realizes he's been duped by "the dream master" and is none too pleased. Coaxed by surviving teenagers Will (Jason Ritter), Lori (Monica Keena), and Kia (Destiny's Child's Kelly Rowland), Jason and Freddy descend upon Crystal Lake for a mano a mano battle royal. Helmed by Hong Kong director Ronny Yu (Bride of Chucky, The Bride With the White Hair), Freddy Vs. Jason features the director of the first Friday film, Sean S. Cunningham serving as producer. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide

The story centers on the local high school's race for class president. Using some nontraditional means, Napoleon is determined to help his pal Pedro (Efrem Ramirez) run a winning campaign and defeat popular girl Summer (Haylie Duff). Also starring The Drew Carey Show's Diedrich Bader, Napoleon Dynamite premiered at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide Little Miss Sunshine When a pudgy, bespectacled seven-year-old, Olive (Abigail Breslin), voices her desire to take home the coveted Little Miss Sunshine crown at an upcoming beauty pageant, her wildly dysfunctional family sets out on an interstate road trip to ensure her a clear shot at realizing her dreams in former music video directorial team Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris' quirky feature debut, starring Greg Kinnear, Steve Carell, and Toni Collette.

Add into the mix a Nietzsche-reading teenage son (Paul Dano) who has taken a vow of silence until he finds his fate as a fighter pilot; a horny, heroin-happy grandfather (Alan Arkin) with a penchant for creative profanity; and a suicidal genius (Carell) and Proust scholar still reeling about losing both his male lover and his MacArthur Foundation genius grant -- and the stage is set for a road trip in which sanity is sure to take the back seat. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide Juno When a teenage girl is faced with an unexpected pregnancy, she enlists the aid of her best friend in finding the unborn child a suitable home in this coming-of-age comedy drama from Thank You for Smoking director Jason Reitman. Juno (Ellen Page) may seem wise beyond her years, but after sleeping with classmate Bleeker (Michael Cera), the pregnant teen quickly realizes how little she really knows about life. Thankfully, Juno has been blessed with parents (J.K. Simmons and Allison Janney) who trust their daughter's judgment, and a best friend named Leah (Olivia Thirlby), who's always willing to help out in a pinch. With a little help from Leah, Juno soon comes into contact with Mark (Jason Bateman) and Vanessa (Jennifer Garner) -- an affluent suburban couple who have been unable to conceive a child of their own. Mark and Vanessa seem like they would make great parents, and are eager to adopt Juno's unborn child. Now, as adolescent Juno is faced with a series of very adult decisions, she will draw on the support of her family and friends in order to discover who she truly is, and discover that one bad choice can have a lifetime of consequences. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
