"We are all visitors to this time, this place.
We are just passing through.
Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow, to love...
and then we return home."
Australian Aboriginal Proverb
"It is better to travel well than to arrive."
Researchers as the University of Wisconsin
conducted an experiment with girls ages 7 to 12
in which they exposed the girls to the stress of speaking
to a group of strangers.
Afterward, a third of the girls were hugged by their mothers,
a third spoke to mom on the phone,
and a third watched a film.
While measured stress rose in the movie watchers,
the stress in both other groups
dropped equally.
"That a simple phone call
could have this physiological effect on oxytocin
is really exciting."
Co-investigator Seth Pollak told Scientific American.
Your visits make me feel wonderful,
and that's a scientific FACT!
Happy Weekend, cloudia

-- Wrap trees. Young trees, those just a year or two old, and fruit trees will appreciate a protective wrap around their trunks. The rolls of paper, plastic or foam-based wrap will protect trees from winter scald and rabbit damage. Remove in the spring.
-- Wrap roses in cold regions. In Zones 5 and colder, wrap tender types of roses in burlap. With hybrid teas, the least cold-hardy of all, instead of burlap use chicken wire or another material to make a collar at least 2 feet high around the rose and fill in with straw or chopped autumn leaves.
-- Mulch roses. Heap 6 inches to 1 foot of loose soil or compost over the base of your rosebushes to protect them from winter extremes.
-- Mulch strawberries with straw. Do this before the temperature drops to 20°F, then put large branches or other weights on top to keep the straw from blowing.

Lindsey Graham is a loud talker but ultimately a wimp. He will cave on Hagel. Graham is as predictable as McCain is looney.
Amazing article by the ultra liberal NYTimes.Maybe Jim will be able to get a job at the DNC or the LATimes after the paper is sold.
Thank you, Reply 1, for delivering the obligatory kick in the teeth to anyone on our side who has done something we want him to do. There have been times in the past when we thought Graham fell short. No tolerance or leeway when that happens. Our way or the highway.
Wonder if he and Breitbart were friends
When liberals savage conservatives, it´s only fair and just.When conservatives savage liberals, it´s a well-financed conspiracy by the Koch brothers and oil companies.If liberals didn´t have a double standard, they would have no standards at all.
When Graham stabs his party and constituents in the back, sooner or later they refuse to present their back for stabbing. Always one of the first to become one of the "gang" screwing us at any given time. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while.Sorry, but Graham "just ain´t right in the head". Neither is McCain.
We should be aware that there is a thing in the human brain that becomes stuck there. One such thing is "racial" bias. I try to fight this in myself sometimes. Another thing is "illegal immigrant Mexican" bias and then the Anti Semitic , meaning Jewish bias. Hagel apparently has the latter.I have seen the latter in some radical Republican groups like the John Birch Society, and in some church groups, like the UM church that favor the Palestinians.The true Christian usually favors Israel, in my opinion. It is not, therefore , surprising that Obama knew this about Hagel and that is why he picked him.
Hmmmm. The Noo Yawk Times just introduced us to the new left-wing mot du jour, "provocateur."Bet that word starts showing up more and more in the "elite" media to refer to any conservative who dares point out that the Emperor has no clothes.
Chuck Hagel´s hatred for Jews knows no bounds. When will the New York Times explain why we should have an anti-Semite heading the Department of Defense?
As I read it, article is a NYT hit piece on Goldfarb - painting him with the McCarthyite brush - not so much about Graham. The "Slimes" will throw Miss Lindsey under the bus another time - when it is right.

Did you mean?
Does Enterprise Car Rental track their vehicles?
Hi there,
I'm travelling to Belo Horizonte for the World Cup in June and looking for an apartment to rent for 5 or 6 nights. Could anyone else give me any pointers and maybe some cross sections of roads to enable me to narrow down my search in the Savassi & Functionarios areas. I believe these are safer areas and also they are full of bars, restaurants, night clubs, etc.
Any advice appreciated.

§ 15. Roger Norths
Lives of the Norths
Though also confessedly composed by a partisanwho avows that he knows not by what influence or means he took very early to the loyal side, and who consistently speaks of its opponents as the faction against monarchy or the faction pure and simpleRoger Norths biographies hold an enduring position in English historical literature. The period with which they deal extends but slightly beyond the reign of Charles II; but the most important of them,
The Life of Francis North, Lord Guilford,
was repeatedly revised, and was not published with the companion
Lives of the Hon. Sir Dudley North and the Hon. and Rev. Dr. John North
till 1740, immediately after the authors
while Roger Norths own
was not generally accessible till 1887, when an edition of it was brought out by Jessopp, who has identified himself with
The Lives of the Norths.
Roger North, who confesses that he was himself of a timid disposition, gifted neither with readiness of speech nor with the quickness of thought which underlies it, and whose innate modesty is not the least pleasing element in the altruism which ennobled his character, was a true believer in his family. The Norths, he says, were a numerous flock, and no one scabby sheep in it; and, though the eldest of the brothers (Lord North and Gray of Rolleston) had attached himself to the faction, the rest were in all respects helpful and assistant to each other nor the least favour of difference or feud found amongst them. Roger became the biographer of four of them, including himself. Specially intimate were his relations with the third of the brothers, Francis, who became Lord Guilford and keeper of the great seal. The advancement of Francis in place and prosperity was also that of Roger, whom he associated with himself in every stage of his career, who lodged with him, was a daily guest at his table and, for many years, never failed to see him safe to bed; who, in short, as Roger himself expresses it, was his brothers shadow. With the frankness which adds both value and charm to his narrative, Roger confesses that his nature at one time rebelled against this dependence; but he never broke through it, and the sincerity with which he judges his brothers character and career is never devoid of piety. Their intimacy enabled the biographer to interpret the laconic notes kept by the successful counsel and eminent judge with a fulness which converts them into so many episodes of legal experience, as well as to expand the
that represented his passing thoughts on the multifarious problems of his public and private life. Thus, Francis Norths complex but masculine, though, in more respects than one, not very attractive, character is brought before the reader with all the force of veracityfor he was cautious as well as ambitious, not overscrupulous so long as he kept well within the law (within which he consistently conjured king Charles II to keep); but, at the same time, straightforward in his private and in his public acts, and content to leave the latter without any affected lustre or handles to fame if he could avoid them. No wonder, writes his biographer, with telling irony, he is so soon forgot.
The account of his matrimonial and electioneering operations illustrates the social and political ethics of the age rather than his own. The characters of Lord Guilfords contemporaries in the higher judiciary are drawn with less reticence and extraordinary forcesuch portraits as those of Silenus Saunders and Jeffreys, in their way, are immortal, the latter more especially so because Macaulays portrait owes to it some of its most telling features; while the finer touches which reveal the biographers antipathy against Sir Matthew Hale are at least equally to the credit of his artistic skill. By the side of these portraits of legal luminaries may be mentioned the admirable portrait of one whose light was hid behind the backstairsWill Chiffinch.
To the literary ability of Roger North, the second of these
that of Sir Dudley North, the great Turkey merchant, afterwards, at a critical season, appointed sheriff of London by a more than doubtful process dictated by the policy of the court,
bears signal witness. This biography depicts, with singular fidelity and force, the career of a young man of family who, virtually, began his mercantile life as supercargo on a ship bound for Archangel, and ended it as treasurer of the Turkey company at Constantinople. The account, derived from him by his brother, of the Turkish system of government (the description of
or exactions from Christian states and persons is specially interesting), law and society, is as full of interest as, when first made known, it must have been of novelty; and the personal character of the great merchantwhose eastern notions were not, like his mustachios, suppressed on his return homeis brought out with much affectionate humour. The honours gained by Sir Dudley North after his return nearly involved him in serious trouble after the revolution of 1688: Rogers account of his brothers examination before the House of Commons is one of the best-told episodes in the story. The third of the
that of John North, master of Trinity college, Cambridge, has a very different interest; it relates the story of the life of a Cambridge don, first at Jesus, where his younger brother was his pupil but where he grew tired of the grave, and perhaps empty seniors, then at Trinity lodge, where he was on uneasy terms with the fellows, very unpopular with the undergraduates and so nice that he never completed anything in the way of a book. In the end, his intellectual powers decayed with those of his body; through life, his greatest happiness seems to have been the occasional society of his brothers.
Roger, the sixth and youngest of his fathers sons, was, as has been observed, born to be the biographer of those among them whose worldly success had outstripped his own. He judged himself humbly, but without hypocrisythough not of prime of my rank, yet not contemptible. His tastes were intellectual: mathematics and music had a special attraction for him, and, of amusements, he preferred that of sailing. That he had a genuine literary gift, he seems hardly to have suspectedfor he never himself published anything but
A Discourse of Fish and Fish Ponds
(1683); but, during the long evening of his life (from 1690 to 1734), which he spent in his own house at Rougham in Norfolk, after, as a non-juror, he had given up practice at the bar, he wrote the
of which mention has been made and his own
The latter breaks off with an account of his long services as trustee under Sir Peter Lelys will, which, like those by him performed under that of his brother Lord Guilford, long occupied most of his leisure. But, though only a fragment, and a repetition, here and there, of what he had already told in the
of his brothers, it is not the least engaging of his productions, and, occasionally, lifts an unsuspected corner of his inner natureas in the strange passage concerning a mans right to end his own existence. In a lighter vein is the comparisonwhich must amuse readers of
The Rape of the Lock
of the life of men to a game at ombre.

. Though lord keeper North had the chief share in directing the proceedings against those accused of complicity in the Rye house plot, there is no reason for attributing to him any share in
A True Account of that Horrid Conspiracy against the late King, His Present Majesty and the Government,
drawn up at his suggestion, but composed by Thomas Sprat, bishop of Rochester, and published in 1685. It speaks of Russells adherence to the doctrine of resistance as conformable to his Presbyterian education and of Sidney (sarcastically) as a stubborn Asserter of the
Good Old Cause.
Note 49
. An account of these proceedings, from the point of view of those who took the lead in opposing them, will be found in a book based on materials constituting a most valuable addition to the memoir-literature of this period, Papillon, F. W.,
Memoirs of Thomas Papillon of London, Merchant
(16231702). Thomas Papillon, of distinguished Huguenot descent, was twice an exileonce for joining in an effort to restore Charles I to power, once for his action with regard to the London charter and Norths election. He was member for Dover both before and after his second absence from England.

Works reasonably wellPros: It does what is says it does. It appears to be accurate, and I'm pretty happy with it. Got this as a bundle with some SATA cables so I didn't have an explicit use for it, but it sure is fun running around the house measuring the temperature of everything. Turns off automatically after about 30 seconds. No need for an on/off switch. Nice. Cons: As others have mentioned, it isn't very user friendly. You really have to read the manual to know what you're looking at on the LCD display. While this unit DOES have both a BACKLIGHT, and a LASER, but they are not turned on by default and it is unclear how to turn them on. Other Thoughts: Hold the trigger, and while holding the trigger press and hold the C/F button to toggle the laser. Hold the trigger and while holding press and hold the "Lock" button to toggle the backlight. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Poor accuracyPros: Solidly built, splash proof Cons: According to this thing, I'm dead (measured body temp 89.3F) 0 out of 8 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Works Great... after you turn everything onPros: Sturdy, multifunctional, and covered in rubber. Takes AAA batteries and does what I need. Cons: It took reading the reviews to realize that I needed to turn the laser (and backlight) on, by holding the trigger and holding one of the black buttons. The instructions were a bit non-obvious, in the "add-value" table. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Cool toyPros: Feels sturdy, robust build Cons: instruction manual missing instructions Other Thoughts: got on sale for around 39, good buy 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
GAUGE ROSEWILL RTMT-12001 RTLPros: Awesome toy for any computer repair person. Bought it for my husband for a gift. We especially love the laser pointer and the light up back screen. This item will come in handy for many other things other then computers. Over all, this is a great tool to have and it works great. Cons: none. Other Thoughts: The battery compartment is a bit tricky to open but that just insures the splash resistant quality of the product. 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
WorksPros: It works as advertised Cons: none Other Thoughts: The battery cover is a bit difficult to get off, but that is a good thing imo. Just be sure to unscrew it and pull up from the bottom end. Toward the top is a little plastic hook/hinge, so dont try to pull from there. 4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
works really wellPros: it works better then i expected Cons: have not had any problem with it, just took me a while to figure out how to turn on the laser pointer 4 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
LaserPros: Device seems to measure temperature fairly accurately and has a number of settings for measurement. Cons: Laser feature is not very clear in the manual. To turn on the laser feature, you must pulling the trigger, then you press the C/F button until the laser appears. When the LCD is on, you will see a triangular icon denoting the laser is enabled. To turn the laser off, do the same process. The laser setting is remembered by the device. Other Thoughts: Battery cover is a bit tricky to remove. It won't slide very well, but you can pry it off with your finger nails. 15 out of 15 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Half FunctioningPros: It worked like a thermometer. Cons: The laser didn't work.12:1 is pretty useless when you don't know what you are pointing at. Other Thoughts: The caution label is over cautious about a non-emitting laser. 0 out of 15 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

By Susan Nightingale, President & Founder of PolitiView.com
Where do good ideas come from?
As often as not, they come from anger and frustration. From hitting a brick wall and figuring there's got to be a way over it or a way around it. And that's how PolitiView.com was born.
During the last mid-term elections, I was the media person on a congressional campaign in Illinois. Having worked on many political campaigns, I have become fairly skilled at sizing up the quality of the candidate rather quickly. And soon after joining the campaign, I realized I was working for one of the best candidates I had ever seen. Smart, experienced, hardworking, well-educated and politically courageous she was. But she had one more magic ingredient – she was genuinely empathic to the struggles of ordinary people. Because of her own humble beginnings, she spoke to people in an authentic way about their daily struggles to support their families and keep a roof over their heads. This was a key factor at a time when the congressional district was facing an economic tsunami. Had she been elected, she would have gone to Washington and fought to help her constituents improve their lives.
But, as befalls many a candidate, she didn't have the money it takes to run a campaign. Sure, she spent time "dialing for dollars." However, she wasn't independently wealthy or a party insider and she wasn't the recipient of big money bundlers. In fact, she had quit her job to run for public office and had spent a year driving all over the district to meet and speak with voters.
You know how this ends of course – she lost. But she was a serious, substantive candidate. However, without the big bucks in her war chest, it proved very hard to get her name known in the district. But I came away determined that things had to change.
And I knew the answer lay on the Internet. There had to be a tool to empower voters to compare candidates in a more accessible and effective way. After much thought, that notion became the site you are now on.
At PolitiView.com, we take pride in the fact that this is a totally nonpartisan venture. Any candidate from any political party can and should subscribe. A robust political debate ensures a better government for all of us.
And I hope, whether you are a voter, candidate or any stakeholder in our democracy, that you find PolitiView.com to be of considerable help as you negotiate this political system that we have been so fortunate to inherit.

Nestled in the northeastern suburbs of Richmond, Mechanicsville, VA is a great place to live. The city ranked No. 84 on CNN/Money's 2009 list of America's Best Small Towns because of its rich Civil War history and surrounding natural attractions. Mechanicsville has become more suburban over the past few years, allowing the city's 36,000 residents to live a relaxed lifestyle. Search for Mechanicsville apartments for rent and find a unique community in eastern Virginia.
In 1836, a group of settlers from eastern states relocated to the open prairie that would later become Mechanicsville. The village grew quickly when a tract of the Northwestern Railroad was built through the area. Mechanicsville was incorporated in 1868, and today is one of Virginia's most historic cities. With many well-kept subdivisions and neighborhoods, Mechanicsville residents enjoy the quiet comforts of home in this relaxed community.

For a lot of people summer's coming to a close quickly but many folks in Texas and especially around Dallas.
Are being urged to stay indoors.
Because of the risk of West Nile Virus correspondent Casey Stegall is in Dallas tonight.
Insecticides have not been dropped by airplane over Dallas since 1966.
But conventional ground spraying has been going on for weeks.
And it's not done much to stop the spread of the dangerous West Nile Virus the time that we wait can be -- -- -- additional west Nile cases and human life.
The mosquito borne illness has already claimed at least seventeen lives in Texas ten of those in Dallas County.
Aerial spraying will likely keep those numbers from growing dramatically.
Considering the success rate for eradicating mosquitoes is high.
Win this -- has been used in other parts of the country.
After an application in Kentucky that we did after the flooding there.
We had an 88% kill rate in Boston I think they just had something along lines of sixty some percent.
Some area residents are taking precautions like keeping up their windows and turning off their air conditioning over fears they could be poisoned by the chemicals.
I don't want to anywhere near.
When you have the science from the CDC.
The EPA.
And all of that many cities across the United States that say this is safe.
This is the right decision to -- Other cities and states could soon be facing the same tough decisions.
59 cases have already been reported in Mississippi 52 at Louisiana 49 in Oklahoma and 32 in South Dakota.
Where victims can experience symptoms from fever and headaches to convulsions.
Coma and paralysis.
And doctors at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta say the reason this particular outbreak is so bad is because of a combination of things.
And and usually warm winter.
A very hot spring and an extremely hot summer.
Making conditions right for these mosquitoes.
Brett we'll continue to follow this story Casey Stegall live in Dallas Casey thank you the.

Comments about Blinds Steve's Exclusive Collection Cellular Shades Super Value Cellular 3/8" Blackout:
This product is made by the major manufacturer, Bali. Because they offer this product as such a low price, they do not allow it to be sold under their brand name and produce it exclusively for our private label. Cellular shades are a great choice for better insulation for your windows and allow you to add color to your room, while keeping a white appearance to the streetside. The blackout feature also provides optimal light control.

Some manufacturers charge an oversized freight charge per order (regardless of the number of blinds) on extra wide blinds because they must use a special delivery company. The width when oversized freight charges apply varies depending on the manufacturer (usually it is around 95 inches or wider) and the charge may be up to $75 per manufacturer per order. M & B and Levolor do not charge oversized freight. Shutters have a freight charge due to the weight of the product. Most blind orders ship within 3 to 5 business days. We do ship to Canada and all other countries. Please call us or send e-mail for applicable charges.

Which coach do you dislike more?
Let me be clear: I can't stand Bo Ryan.
However, if you take away the one comment - "Deal with it" - this is not a close contest. Crean orbits on a plane of douchiness that is high above most mortal d-bags.
Unlike my reaction to Crean, I can actually look at Bo Ryan without wanting to punch a hole through the television.
i just feel like crean is over rated. at least bo ryan has some success. indiana was preseason #1 and honestly doesnt feel like a top 2 team in their own conference. stupid polsters refusing to tell themselves they are wrong. clearly a top 15 team, but havnt seen anything that would tell me they are a top 10 team
Something tells me this is biased by tonight's contest. A heavy dose of Super Bowl shots showing his *erhem* ..."beautiful" wife cheering on her brothers from the stands this Sunday might make me garner some sympathy for Crean, but I doubt it.
"Any time you give a man something he doesn't earn, you cheapen him. Our kids earn what they get, and that includes respect." - Woody
That's a great description of it. I just want to punch him on sight. Bo Ryan can talk me into wanting to punch him. Crean needs no words.
"Any time you give a man something he doesn't earn, you cheapen him. Our kids earn what they get, and that includes respect." - Woody
I sat in the Breslin Center last weekend watching Izzo call the refs over and whine to them several times. Then I saw it get results for him and it made me wish Matta would do it more. But then I realized it was not the act, but the actor. You can't hate Izzo, you just can't.
My B1G MBB coach hate order list:
1) Crean
2) Ryan
3) for some reason Fran McCaffery
4) everyone else I couldn't care too much about, but PSU's new guy might climb this list if he ever actually beats anybody
"Any time you give a man something he doesn't earn, you cheapen him. Our kids earn what they get, and that includes respect." - Woody
this wasn't really a tough choice for me. It's Bo Ryan. I just had a huge problem with him doing nothing to address the alleged spitting and other misconduct of the student section toward Jared Sullinger.
I am hoping someone could enlighten me as to why Crean is a choice here. I have always been a fan because I had family attend Marquette when he was coaching, and I even went to his camp there while in middle school. A classmate of mine even played for him at Indy. I respect him as a coach and he has done a great job recruiting. Aside from looking just like Dwight K. Schrute, what is the basis for hating on Crean? I'm sure there is something I am missing.
Toughest question I've seen in awhile. It's like asking which is more punchable: Bo Ryan's joker mouth, or Tom Crean's hair. I'll go with Crean for now on the dislike factor, just because he is more of a threat for the time being.
"You win with people." - Woody Hayes
Crean by a llllllllooooooooonnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggg shot. The dude has the most punchable face of anyone in all of history. He is an exceptional douche on top of that. And lastly, WTF is that sludge he drinks during games? Bo Ryan is second, but Crean is the King.
"Say my name."
This is very tough for the simple fact they both are very hateable and both do certain things that are very annoying and come across as very whiny people who go ballistic when they don't get calls to go their way. Bo Ryan teaches his players to flop with little to no contact and then runs a style of basketball that should be outlawed because it's how they played back in the 40's, but the flopping is what erks me. He also is constantly in an officials ear when something doesn't get called that he feels should he rips them and more than often gets the call the next time down the floor or a makeup call happens. Crean very much the same way when it comes to being in officials ears and he is a very sore loser as well this year at home Indiana fouls just about every time on the defensive end knowing that no official is going to call it in their place bc for some reason your not allowed to officiate fairly in that arena. Idk I hate them both very much I can't pick one over the other. Banish them both and that is fine with me!!!
hahahaha epic o-face
i hate crean so much more than ryan. ryan gets some kudos for coaching the USA college team a few years back, and you have to respect a coach that can get lesser talent to overperform. also, i feel like bo is more rage on the bench while crean just comes across as whiny.
plus, bo will always remind me of willem dafoe in boondock saints
the kids are playing their tail off, and the coaches are screwing it up! - JLS
I voted Crean for the aforementioned punchiness factor. But don't forget the way that Bo handled one of his player's transfer requests, just last year:
Should of been a 3rd choice for both A and B... I dislike them equally but for two different reasons.
A . Ryan is class A dickhead. if he and I were in HS together he would have been put back into his place. Wherever he graduated from allowed for his dickheaedness to thrive.
B. crean is a grade A putz! He probably did get punked frequently in HS and thus the reason for his sissified ways....
That's how I see it.
"Tough times don't last, tough people do" - Gregory Peck
as a bball coach it is hard to hate any of izzo, ryan, or crean.... ryan gets his players to overperform yr after yr.... izzo is just a stud and yes he complains to refs but it really helps... and crean is one of the best recruiters in the nation and i look for the hoosiers to be a solid program again
mark may wins douchebag of the year... again
I know I'm in the minority here, but I absolutely hate Tom Crean. I think he's dirty, he cheats his own players (maybe not the system, per se), and I hate his attitude.
To add to my minority, I actually like Bo Ryan. I think he's a class act who says stupid stuff at times, does things for the right way (mostly), and has a tough ball club in a football school without the resources the state of Ohio has.

This volume is a major breakthrough for the history of the Sa-skya period of Tibet, the art treasures of the Gyantse region, and the evolution of a distinctive Tibetan style from the multiple strands of Indian iconographic elements, Chinese tendencies in larger compositions and the Khotanese manner in statuary.
So far it had been held that Buddhism went to Tibet through Nepal and Kashmir, but this volume points out for the first time how it also traversed the Sikkim-Gyantse way. It details the historical monasteries on the road to and in the city of Gyantse, which are of unique value for the development of the Tibetan visual arts. The small temple of Bsam-grub Iha-khan near Phari has frescoes of the XV century and a statue of Avalokitesvara and two book covers of possible Indian origin. This book treats of the extraordinary flourishing of art due to the enlightened patronage of the Sa-skya-pas during the long tenure of their power. The princes of Zhalu and Gyantse followed their example. Chinese influences came to be felt during the hegemony of the Sa-skyas who maintained cultural and political relations with China for two centuries.
The volume reviews the disappearance of ancient historical records because of the suppression of all rivals by the emerging Gelukpa sect. The Myan-chun Chronicles and the Eulogy of Nenying monastery, which have escaped, are unique sources for the history of the artistic heritage of the region. Along with them, historical geography, the chronologies of the Sa-skya abbots and of the princes of Zhalu and of Gyantse, and their relations with the Mongol court are discussed.
The monastery of Kyangphu at Samada was founded in the XI century, but was restored in the XIV under the Sa-skyas. It has statues and stupas of Indian origin. Its surviving murals betray Central Asian style. Several Mandalas of Vairocana from different tantras are dealt with.
The Gyani monastery in the Salu village has capitals of the XIV century. The monastery at Iwang was constructed before the arrival of Sakyasri the Great Pandit of Kashmir in the XIII century. An inscription on its mural says that it was painted in Indian style. Another inscription points out that Amitayus was done in the Khotanese way. The ancient monasteries of Shonang and Nenying have been restored and repainted, though at Nenying splendid fragments of the best epoch of Indo-Nepalese art survive.
The superb monastery of Gyantse is described in all scientific details for the first time in this book. The most outstanding monument of the region is the Kumbum of Gyantse, also known as Dpal-hkhor chos-sde, important both for its architecture and for its paintings. It is a gigantic complex of several mandalas, a veritable summa of tantric revelations. The inscriptions name its painters and sculptors: unique in the history of Tibetan art. They give summary descriptions of the frescoes which serve as remarkable iconographic guides. The paintings can be dated to a well-determined period, namely the XV century, when an independent idiom of Tibetan art developed.
Part I details the iconography of the Kumbum which is an architectonic Mandala, where progressive ascending from one floor to the other corresponds to an ascension from a lesser order of tantras to ever higher ones. The 73 major temples and minor chapels on its four floors and dome are described at length. An astounding number of 27,529 deities are represented in the Kumbum. This book is a mine of information and perceptions of the great master Giuseppe Tucci, and invites further researches on the vast tantric iconography and its symbolism detailed herein. Part II gives the text and translation of the inscriptions in the temples and chapels of the various monasteries. Part III is devoted to the mural paintings in them.

Product 4/16
Draper's Organic are proud to introduce our 100% hemp shower curtain as a toxic-free, attractive and bio-degradable alternative to the off-gassing of a pvc shower curtain (see below article). Our natural hemp shower curtains have a simple, contemporary elegance and feel soft and cool to the touch. Hemp is absorbent, so will stop the water from spraying through, it will not cling like plastic curtains and is also known to be naturally resistant to mould and bacteria** (please see below 'care' for further details).
Our price includes our attractive set of hemp rope rings, which are looped together to give a double ring which is attached to each eyelet, though you can use just one of the hemp ropes to shorten the length of the curtain, or buy more to lengthen, should you so wish. These hemp rope rings then loop over any standard curtain rail.
Dimensions - approx 180cm width x 200cm drop
Please allow for the fibres to contract when wet etc
Doc says...Why Buy Hemp?
Hemp makes one of the most eco friendly fabrics available and it does not need any nasty chemicals to grow. Unlike cotton, it is a sustainable resource that is naturally resistant to most pests, so there is no need for pesticides. The plant needs little help to thrive. It requires less water than cotton to grow and is so prolific and tightly spaced that fertilizers and herbicides are also unnecessary, as there is no room for weeds.With its deep root system it grows without negatively affecting the soil and can therefore be grown for several years. In fact, growing hemp adds more than it takes out of the land, unlike cotton which depletes the soil of its nutrients. Industrial hemp has been cultivated for thousands of years, the fibres being renowned for their strength and durability, whilst the seeds are a great nutritional source of proteins, as well as providing other health and practical uses. It is a most efficient crop to grow with its relatively short cycle and many uses, such as nutritional hemp seeds, paper, bodycare products, detergents, pet foods and even insulation, but it should not be confused with its illegal cousin (in comparison it contains just a trace of THC, not even enough to bring a smile to your face).
Hemp fabric is a textural, naturally attractive fabric that can be produced in various weights, so is suitable for the finest of apparel to heavy duty upholstery. It is naturally UV resistant and absorbent, and is also known for its anti-bacterial, anti-mould** (see below) and insulative qualities. It feels soft and has a contemporary elegance, suitable for today's more simple taste.
**Although hemp is known to be naturally durable and resistant to mould and bacteria, please remember that it is a natural fabric that has not been treated with any chemicals so this cannot be guaranteed as it may depend on individual conditions. Opening the shower curtain and allowing it to dry properly in a well ventilated bathroom, with the window open, is recommended. If being used in a bath, it should be placed on the outside of the bath (ringing out any excess water at the hem if necessary) after use, for air circulation, to allow it to dry. TIP You may wish to use a clip/peg to attach the bottom of the shower curtain around the curtain rail to help it drip dry in the bath and providing the air circulation, if putting it outside of the bath is not possible.
Please maintain and wash as necessary, which you can do on a gentle wash at 30 degrees (please remove all curtain rings when you wash the shower curtain). We recommend you iron whilst wet for best results and to reshape, it can then be hung to finish drying, we do not recommend tumble drying. You can use inhibitors and cleaning agents such as oxygen bleach, borax, distilled white vinegar, anti bacterial cleansers, teatree oil solutions etc if mould/mildew may be a problem. You can also put pieces of charcoal or a humidity absorber in the room to help soak up moisture. Although most customers are happy with their hemp shower curtain as it is, you may wish to use a liner as with other fabric shower curtains on the market, if the conditions of use or lifestyle preference do not suit the use of a fabric shower curtain alone. It is for our customers to decide if a natural, untreated fabric shower curtain will suit their circumstances, prior to use, as we cannot accept their return once used. Thank you for your understanding.
See the below article from The Independent in July 2008 about Plastic Shower Curtains:
By Geoffrey Lean, Environment Editor
Sunday, 6 July 2008
American scientists are warning that the humble plastic shower curtain is responsible for releasing more than 100 toxic chemicals into homes, including some suspected of causing cancer or having gender-bending effects.
A report from the Center for Health, Environment and Justice calls for PVC curtains to be banned, a call echoed by Greenpeace. Several stores have already phased them out.
The research tested five curtains over 28 days and found 108 volatile organic compounds which, the study says, can irritate the eyes, ears and throat and damage the liver, kidney and central nervous system. Some, it adds, "are suspected or known to cause cancer in humans".
All the curtains were also found to contain phthalates which have been linked to premature breast development in girls, and feminisation effects in baby boys.
Thank you for your interest in our purely hemp shower curtains, which make an attractive and responsible alternative to the plastic shower curtain.
Please note it is possible that there may be some irregularities in the fabric, which should not be deemed a fault and is characteristic of a natural fabric.

Worldwide Carbon Capture and Storage Projects on the Increase | ||||||||
Washington, D.C. — Worldwide efforts to fund and establish carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects have accelerated, according to a new Department of Energy (DOE) online database, indicating ongoing positive momentum toward achieving the G-8 goal for launching 20 CCS demonstrations by 2010.
The database, a project of the Office of Fossil Energy's (FE) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), reveals 192 proposed and active CCS projects worldwide. The projects are located in 20 countries across five continents. The 192 projects globally include 38 capture, 46 storage, and 108 for capture and storage. While most of the projects are still in the planning and development stage, or have just recently been proposed, eight are actively capturing and injecting CO2:
CCS is a group of technologies for capturing and compressing the carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted by power plants or industrial sites; transporting it; and injecting it into suitable permanent storage sites, such as deep underground formations. It has been increasingly recognized by scientists and nations worldwide as an effective way to both reduce CO2 emissions from existing sources and help avoid future emissions, making it part of a portfolio response to meet atmospheric carbon dioxide reduction goals. At its 2008 meeting in Japan, the G-8 — of which the United States is a part — adopted a goal recommended by the International Energy Agency to launch 20 large-scale CCS demonstration projects globally by 2010, with a further goal of deploying these technologies by 2020. Worldwide efforts to fund and establish CCS projects in general have accelerated, and the new database shows a recent increase in projects cost-shared by the electric power industry. The database provides information about the efforts of various industries, public groups, and governments to develop and deploy CCS technology, a critical component in global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It lists technologies being developed for capture, testing sites for CO2 storage, and estimations of costs and anticipated dates of project completion, and uses Google Earth to illustrate the location of projects and provide a link to further information on each. The Energy Department supports dozens of CCS projects through its Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships (RCSP) program, the Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum, and other global collaborations. FE and NETL support international projects in Canada, China, Germany, Australia, Algeria, and Norway. Hundreds of organizations—including government agencies, universities, and the private sector—are involved in global CCS efforts. The seven RCSPs form a national network that is investigating the CCS approaches best suited for different regions of the country. DOE is also a project partner in the Weyburn-Midale, Sleipner, and In Salah projects, either through direct contributions or indirect involvement in technology development. Additionally, more than 20 small-scale CO2 injection field projects conducted by the RCSPs are underway in saline formations, oil and gas fields, and coals seams throughout the United States and Canada. These projects are all featured in the new database. The database will be continually updated as information about new or existing projects is released. NETL welcomes project updates and comments that will improve the database. Contact information to provide updates or comments is available in the step-by-step instructions available from the database webpage. |

-- now some fresh pickings from the political grapevine there is no room at the end or rather the park for the baby Jesus this year in Santa Monica California.
A federal judge has ruled the city can bar unintended nativity and other seasonal displays in public places.
While related lawsuit goes forward the ruling likely -- a sixty year tradition for the Palisades Park nativity scene.
An attorney for area churches says the outcome Marx -- the erosion of First Amendment liberty for religious speech.
Atheist groups are praising the ruling as an example of the separation of church and state.
The freedom from religion foundation said quote religion is innately divisive and just doesn't belong in public parks and there are tax exempt churches on every other corner.
Why isn't that good enough.
Well two weeks after the election we are learning that MSNBC did not do a single negative story about President Obama.
Or single positive one about governor Romney in the final week of the presidential campaign.
That's according to new study by the pew research center's Project for Excellence in Journalism and finally.
A four year billion plus dollar transportation project opened with a bang not a good way.
Transportation secretary -- -- Clinton lauded brand new express lanes on the capital beltway in Northern Virginia as a quote model for American infrastructure.
Drivers have the option of paying -- hole or carpooling to ride in faster moving traffic -- fluctuate depending on how busy the road it's.
Over the weekend there were several reports of several crashes involving multiple vehicles which police say were all caused by driver swerving -- making lane changes to avoid that whole -- Monday in the first rush hour test police were investigating a -- car collision at the start of the morning can use.
Transportation authorities are now scrambling to make clearer and more extended markings -- -- to minimize unsafe lane changes.

Our waitress was TERRIBLE!! She brought our drinks out and my husbands glass had hot pink lip stick on it... Hate being service in dirty dishes!!! Ugh she brought him another glass and apologized. We had to ask for refills and other things several times....But our food we got once it got there was great!! I know nobody is perfect... More
My husband and I planned a ride last Sunday with another couple and decided to try their other location in Olive Branch. We met another couple there around 11 a.m. for brunch. The service could not have been better!! Food was absolutely delicious!! I had the Crab Cakes Egg Benedict and it was incredible. Bloody Mary's and Mimosa for $3.50... More
Was visiting Memphis, so we decided after a day at Graceland to drive over the border into Mississippi to visit the Harley Dealership and to grab a bite to eat.

We went on a Saturday evening, not knowing that across the street there was a concert going on at the Lander Center. The place was so busy, and so disorganized, which was annoying because you would think this place would be used to the pre and post concert crowds and have some sort of plan in place. The hostess was... More
the fried green tomatoes are delicious. we've had appetizers there a couple of times and everything has always been good.
It is located next to the Harley Davidson dealership so of course there are bikers there. If loud music and loud motorcycles aren't your thing you may want to steer clear of this place. If you decide to go you can expect decent food and average prices. It is average across the board. It's ok for an every once in... More
You will have a great meal, exceptionally slow service and a bill higher than average for the privelege. Good beer selection, live music and the food quality almost make up for its shortcomings.
I've been here a few times. Service is friendly and the atmosphere is interesting - auto/motorcycle, etc. The food is average but the drinks are good. As noted by the other reviews, the eclectic mix of bikers, rednecks, cougars and hogs make for interesting people watching.
We rode our Harleys up to Southern Thunder on a Sunday afternoon and decided to eat a late lunch here. The hostess could have smiled, which I thought should be a priority of a hostess, but the waitress made up for it. The atmosphere was really cool. The windows opened like the bay doors of a service station to an... More
