She is amazing...look so good compare with the pictures from last week in Mexico..I guess that s because she s in Paris...
Kristen looks brilliant and I love her dress.
Robert,as usually:)
But Taylor doesn't seem to enjoy it there much...
Her shoes do look big on her.. Although they are super cute! Lol.
Kristen and Rob are gorgeous as always!!
I'm really getting tired of Taylor's look during photoshoots..can't the guy smile even a little? Can someone tell him that is NOT a hot looking face?
Rob sucked in the cheeks a bit too much, haha. He does look a bit haggard. I hope he can get a couple of nights' sleep before going to the LA premiere on 16th.
Kristen looks gorgeous!
Kristen looks gorgeous...love her...and Rob looks more beautiful besides her...they are so cute...
Oh my god, i just saw them
And Kris looked WONDERFUL, her dress was just WAW and she was smiling
And Rob oh my god.
So cute.
So Rob si WAW.
They seemed a little embarassed but they were WAW even Taylor looked pretty good :)
I have pictures of them if u want ( i don't know how to send them to you :S) But they looked really really great.
Now i'm going to close my eyes and think about that moment :)
Damn, I love Rob's sucked-in cheeks pout...
And Kristen looks beautiful!
Tay Tay? Meh.
i notice that too qiupang, Rob suck it too much, but it's cute :)
kristen looks so pretty on that dress.
they all look amazing :)
i just got my tickets and i get to see New Moon in 8 days and 5 hours and 50 minutes :)
it rules being in Spain :)
Em's - how wonderful for you! Thanks for sharing - it is so lovely to share people's Rob joy!!!
I can't even imagine how excited I would be to see any of them let alone Rob in the flesh!!! WOW.
Gee these guys scrub up well!! They must be exhausted from all the media they have been doing. Will it wind down a bit after the NM premiere next week do you think?
They all deserve a very long rest and some time away from the public eye after this!
Kirsten looks wonderfull in that classic dress and the high heels. I never saw high heels on her before.
Kristen looks stunning! Rob, as usual, looks great
Taylor is usually always smiling!
woah - is Rob really wearing a tweed jacket?? lol
Is that something he borrowed from Edward? :)
Congrats to you Ems!
I love Kristens dress!
Rob, stunning! Suck those cheeks in honey!
J'adore Robert mais tous le monde a un travail fatiguant, moi aussi j'ai besoin de me reposer! Rob comme il est connu vous le plaignez comme si il allait mourrir à trop faire d'interview!
Only Rob could be hobolicious :)
rpatz zone, tu peux arreter de raler?
Chaque fois que tu es sur ce blog tu rales, jamais quelque chose de constructif à dire c'est quoi ton probleme? Fais un effort au moins de traduire tes raleries en anglais veux tu?
By the way they all look beautiful specially Kristen.
Hmm, c'est pas pour dire, mais si j'ai bien lu, il a quand même dû se farcir 78 interviews en une journée, j'aime autant mon boulot que le sien... Et c'est vrai que tu pourrais râler en anglais, tant qu'à faire : -p
On another note, let's celebrate my first post ever, after months of lurking ; -)
Gozde, Kate, thank you for your amazing work and the time and dedication that go with it!!! You completely rock!
Cheers from Belgium
Kristen looks great, she even looks sweet in this pic LOL
Taylor looks good too but tired, he usually smiles a lot.
No need to say how gorgeous Rob looks.
poor tay tay.. ;-)
Im sure they'll be on a plane again soon..off to london?
Maybe Clare and Richard and the girls can squeeze in a hello for Rob...that would be nice for him.
Kristen is growing on me Im very impressed with her latest interviews.
Not trying to be mean, but Taycob always looks constipated-he's a sweet boy, but face always looks squisshy...
Em's, you can send your photos to
il a fait 78 interviews mais moi parfois je travaille plus de 10h00 debout pratiquement toute la journée et j'ai très mal au dos!
A l'évidence tu as décidé de comparer ce qui ne peut pas l'être... Tu fais certainement partie des gens qui pensent que puisqu'il est célèbre, il n'a qu'à endurer avec le sourire tout ce qu'on peut lui infliger, que ce soit 75 fois la même question en une journée d'interviews ou les hurlements hystériques à la moindre de ses apparitions. Ce n'est pas mon avis...
Sorry about the "argument" in French...
Ok so I think that for this photo call Kristen is the one that is the better looking from the three of them. She is gorgeous. I absolutely love the dress and the shoes are great although I think that they might be a little uncomfortable. As for Rob, well... I don't know about you quys but I actually think that even though he is beautiful as always the hair is a bit flat, and he looks a little tired. He needs a few nights of good sleep and sadly for him I don't think he will get to do that until after the premiere.
Luv the dress and luv the stub.
I agree they look great but is Kristen doing mullet maintenance? (heaven forbid) because it's not growing out!
sweet mother of God...I hope she's not starting a trend
Luv the balcony, too. lol
Je ne dis pas ça, ça m'a un peu choqué que Robert se fasse autant interviewver, j'espère qu'il se reposera mais je ne veux pas trop le plaindre parce que tous le monde travaille! des gens ont un travail plus dur!
@ Rpattz girl THANKS :D
@ alynutzapattinson : I totally agree with u! She rocked ! She was the first to appear on the balcony (with Chris) and the first thing i thought was "WHAT A DRESS" and everyone around thought the same thing i think, but i have to say, the dress looked even better in real, and she was smiling, really smiling like she was happy so it was really great and i think she really felt good at that moment (they were not a lot of screaming fans).
So when i saw her i was really pleasantly surprised by her :)
And god, i'm not going to say it enough i LOVE her dress and Rob looked sooo good but tired, but still smiling =D
Ca doit être pénible de répondre à autant de questions et souvent les même, c'est son travail! j'ai un travail et la plupart du temps je fais la même chose et c'est gonflant je peux comprendre Robert mais au point de le plaindre comme vous le faites je trouve que c'est un peu exagéré, qu'il soit une star ou pas!
Kristen is just gorgeous, and Rob is adorable and sexy as always!!!
@ alynutzapattinson - I Agree wit you, I Think he looks extremely tired. There's a article about this interview at ToR and they say he constantly rubbing his eyes, poor thing!
But I think he will only get some deserved beaty sleep after the premiere.
juste une remarque vous regardez que leurs fringues vous êtes fan que de ça? Robert je l'adore mais je ne vais pas m'attarder pendant une heure sur son look!
Dear Photo #6
Please just end my torture.. my sweet misery..
kill me now..
I mean what the fuck am I supposed to do now?
Nothing..That's right..Nothing..
Just stay down here on the floor!
Oui.. Oui..
Oh boy, this is getting old...
rpattz-zone, tu espères vraiment une réponse en postant tes commentaires en français (relativement critiques, soit dit en passant) sur un site anglophone?
Si tu veux un dialogue constructif, exprime-toi pour que tout le monde te comprenne. Il doit sûrement y avoir des blogs francophones où tu pourras t'étonner qu'on épilogue pendant des heures sur des sujets tels que leurs fringues et leur apparence. Chacun son truc...
rpattz zone, je ne sais pas quel est ton probleme une fois de plus tu rales. Personne n'est ici pour s'apitoyer sur le pauvre sort de robert, tout ce que les gens remarques c'est que sur c'est photos, tout les protagonistes ont l'air épuisés. Est ce une faute de remarquer ça? j'en doute
Alors s'il te plait on sait que tout le monde à des boulots et que meme par la definition du travail c'est une activité pénible. Est ce pour ça qu'on ne peut pas avoir de sympatie? En plus personne ici ne se plaint sauf toi.Tout le monde semble heureux d'avoir des belles photos.Par ailleurs quand on voit une photo on la commente, le lieu de la prise de photo, les personnages, leurs visages, les sentiments qu'on en tire.
Kristen steal the show with this photocall. She is just like whaououh.
Rob and Taylor look good too.
Her dress is fantastic. And those shoes! Fabulous.
Suz, as usual, I'm right there with you. That photo...ovaries exploding, panties combusting....DIED.
I love how Kristen always glams it up it Europe. Love the way that dress moves. Reminds me of the white off the shoulder dress last year.
Poor Rob looks really haggard! Maybe why the conference was so short.
LOL Rob's pout (like he said) is an auto response to flashing bulbs! Flash..suck cheeks.
If that is looking haggard then sign me up for the Hagar The Horrible Seminar..
He looks perfect.
they all look gorgeous.
lol @Suz Yes, to only look that haggard!
God, Kristen's dress and shoes are to die for, she can be such a knockout when she wants to, and I love she doesn't want to sometimes. lol
Robert looks tired! He needs more rest....
Wow nice dress, Kristen. She looks gorgeous. You go girl!
Sorry, but what the hell happened to Rob's hair? It's flat on top with a strange piece coming down his forehead. Did he sleep on it funny?
I love Kristen's dress but still hate the hair! Is she trying to keep the mullet or what?
aww so cute...kristen is in her little ballerina look again :D like the one from the vmas... ya it seems like rob's hair looses its zest every now and then.. i think this happens when rob is left to style it himself... because any other time like at a big award show or a photoshoot its up and funked out and sexy .. either way.... the face will always make up for the lack of zesty hair :) ... i guess we can't always get the picture of rob perfection (sexified hair, sexified shaven-jaw face, sexified attire) or we'd die XD
They all look very good, but Rob seems to be very tired. he must rest and relax.Despite that he's always gorgeous, with his beautiful smile. i think he must be a very good and intelligent person. all the luck for them!And Rob,you should be as you are no matter others are saying.

I've searched high and low and gone through so many different hair care treatments trying to tame my damaged hair. My natural hair is neither straight nor wavy nor curly…it's just poofy! One time when I was doing a runway show…the African-American lady who was doing hair felt my hair and told me that I have African hair. (Interesting enough…my booty is pretty big for a white girl…one time I had a dream that my mom told me my dad wasn't really my dad and that my real dad was black…and then it all made sense, but I digress).
In all my years of searching and spending money on things that just didn't seem to work…I finally found a product that I'm absolutely in love with! After using this product, my hair has never felt so soft! I wish someone would've told me about Keratin Treatment before now! I suppose that's why I'm sharing my new-found information with you!
Keratin is the key structural component found in hair (and also skin and nails). This superior formula by Awesome Classic Care (and it IS awesome!) is enriched with 5 proteins and 5 natural oils to provide intensive nourishment. It revives, restores and rejuvenates chemically treated damaged hair through all hair conditions.
Pick up a sample at Bella Beauty Supply on your way home from work and try it for yourself. You will love it!

Ever been to Maker Faire? It is a great family friendly event for geeks and DIY enthusiasts of all stripes! I ran an exhibit there last year, and my only regret is that I didn't personally get to see even a fraction ofall the cool stuff going on.
Above Left: That's me on the right with some of the volunteers for the Let's Make Robots area.
Left: My kids and some of the other Let's Make Robots folks.
Maker Faire is definitely about more than robots, but we weren't the only robot-related exhibit there. Here is Erin "RobotGrrl" Kennedy showing my daughter some of her creations. Erin is a real inspiration for anyone, but I think budding geekgrrls can relate especially well.
Here's my kids checking out the Sashimi Tabernacle Choir car, which has to be seen to be believed. You know those Billy Bass singing fish? Imagine an entire late model car covered in animatronic acquatic life. The pièce de résistance is the extended boom on the front supporting a lobster conductor for the choir.
If that doesn't make your kids want to make stuff, I don't know what will. Oh, maybe this. A giant metal fire breathing dragon!
There was lots more to see and do, including many interactive and hands-on activities. Kids could learn to solder, program their first Arduino, isolate the DNA from a strawberry, learn to weave, and participate in many other activities.
Another popular attraction was the giant waterfall slide.
There were lots of gears, cranks and other mechanisms to play with.
Play Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock with a robot.
Arc Attack was not to be missed. (I missed it, but it was amazing, I'm told.) The life sized Mouse Trap and the Coke Zero and Mentos fountain were also very impressive.
Looking forward to seeing your booth at Maker Faire NY! I'll be there with the GeekDad/GeekMom contingent, and I'm giving a talk on Low Tech/No Tech robots. Hope I can make one of the robots in your video, looks cool!

Tweed is a journey into the 1930s world of hand-lettering.
The design looks very much like the personal scribblings of an old-fashioned cartoon animator. It's the sort of sketch-style you might find describing a goofy caterpillar or laughing willyworm.
Tweed is fun and light-hearted with open and rounded letters of a somewhat musical quality. Derived from old letterforms popularized by Carl Holmes in his wonderful book on the subject, Tweed is basically friendly in nature. More…

Overview/Stem Cell Prospects" data-pin-do="buttonBookmark">
Sidebar: Overview/Stem Cell Prospects
HUMAN EMBRYO five to six days after fertilization, called a blastocyst, is opened
to retrieve the inner cell mass (red bulge)
that produces embryonic stem cells.
Stem cells raise the prospect of regenerating failing body parts and curing diseases that have so far defied drug-based treatment. Patients are buoyed by reports of the cells' near-miraculous properties, but many of the most publicized scientific studies have subsequently been refuted, and other data have been distorted in debates over the propriety of deriving some of these cells from human embryos.
Provocative and conflicting claims have left the public (and most scientists) confused as to whether stem cell treatments are even medically feasible. If legal and funding restrictions in the U.S. and other countries were lifted immediately, could doctors start treating patients with stem cells the next day? Probably not. Many technical obstacles must be overcome and unanswered questions resolved before stem cells can safely fulfill their promise.
This article was originally published with the title The Stem Cell Challenge.

Jones finds home sweet home in Tunica
Although the setting is different, Lindsay Klimek Jones said her story is much like the plot to the popular film "Legally Blond."
"Kind of like Elle Woods, I woke up one day and said 'I want to go to law school," she says with a laugh.
At that point, Jones was enrolled at the University of Mississippi pursuing a degree in anthropology with a minor in biology.
Bright lights, big city
It all started last February when my friend Lauren got her number drawn out of a lottery of over 1,000,000 people to participate in the New York City Marathon. She couldn't go alone – she needed a travel companion and moral support. How could I refuse my good friend? And besides, it was the perfect excuse to plan my first trip to New York.
Fast forward nine months later. Lauren has trained diligently, we have recruited another partner in crime (for moral support, of course) and we are on board a plane headed for the Big Apple.
Henderson inspires
Tunica County honored one of its own last Sunday, when Dr. Galen Henderson of Boston was added to the Tunica Museum's permanent "Sons and Daughters" exhibit.
Dr. Henderson, a 1985 graduate of Rosa Fort High School, went on to graduate from Brown University Medical School and currently practices at Brigham and Women's Hospital, where he is chief of the Neuroscience Intensive Care Unit and the Division of Critical Care and Emergency Neurology.
Dr. Henderson is also on the faculty of Harvard Medical School and an internationally known medical educator and researcher.
Dr. Henderson was welcomed home by his cousin, county supervisor Cedric Burnett; mentor and friend Wilfred Turner; his aunt, State Rep. Clara Burnett; and Sheriff K.C. Hamp.

For God so Loved the World
"For God so loved the world He gave...": A Sermon on Stewardship
Texts: Isa. 55.6-13
2 Cor. 8.7-24
John 3.14-21
+ May I speak and may you hear, in the Name of God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.
Take another look at that rather long and rambling reading we had from Paul's second letter to the early Christian community at Corinth: "So we want you to excel also in this generous undertaking" and "I do not say this as a command" and "It is appropriate for you who began last year not only to do something but even to desire to do something--now finish doing it." What is Paul on about? And why for goodness sake, why does he beat about the bush so? Why not just come out and say it--whatever it is he is on about? And by the way, in the original Greek Paul is even more illusive than he appears from our English translation. That statement, "so we want you to excel also in this generous undertaking" in the original literally reads: "So we want you to excel also in this grace?"
That modern translators here render "this grace" with "this generous undertaking" gives the game away. Yes, Paul was talking about money, about capital, about dosh, or whatever you prefer to name it. You see, Paul had a project, a pet project--if you will. He was raising funds for the Christians in Jerusalem--the Jewish Christians who lived in Jerusalem. Two facts weighed heavily on Paul's mind. First, the Jewish Christians of Jerusalem, because of the persecution which they suffered at the hands of other Jews, were in dire straits. Their situation was very serious indeed. The Gentile Christians of Asia Minor, Macedonia and Greece, among whom Paul ministered, may not have been particularly wealthy, but they were much better off. Second, there was real tension, some of it theological and some of it cultural, between the two branches of the early Church, Jewish and Gentile. Now, if the Gentile Christians, who enjoyed a great deal more prosperity, could be induced to part with some of that prosperity for the sake of their poorer brothers and sisters in Jerusalem, if the Gentile Christians were to prove their love in such away, just what might become of that tension, both theological and cultural, which existed within the Church? Might it not dissolve away and a greater unity come to full flower? But money, the raising of money, the suggestion that his people should give away some of their money, must have been as sensitive an issue in first century Corinth that it is in Twenty-first century England. And so Paul treads very carefully, one might almost say gingerly, around the issue: "You excel in everything -- in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in utmost eagerness, and in our love for you -- so we want you to excel in this grace also."
In the previous paragraph, not part of today's reading, Paul begins by bragging about the Christians in Macedonia; how generous they had proved to be. Then, in our reading, he lets it drop that the Corinthian Christians had begun some time ago to set aside money for the collection, but it seems they had quietly let the whole thing drop. So Paul is writing to encourage them to get on with it, so that when he arrives it will be ready and he can take it on to Jerusalem. And, moreover, he discusses at some length the preparations for the journey to Jerusalem. He wants no one to suppose that he will abscond with the dosh. So he informs them that Titus will be with him, as well as "the brother who is famous among all the churches" and also "our brother whom we have often tested and found eager in many matters." Just who these last two are is no longer clear to us, but would have been very clear to the Corinthians.
And for Paul the fundamental principle is nothing less than the example of Jesus himself. Paul writes: "You know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that although he was rich for our sakes he became poor, that through his poverty we might become rich" (2 Cor. 8.9). Jesus was in the very form of God, equality with God was his birth-right, so to speak. Yet, out of love for the human race, he emptied himself and became a man. Indeed, he took the very form of a slave, that through his poverty we might become rich (cf. Phil. 2.6-11). Paul's point, though unstated, is altogether clear. If Christ so loved us, we ought to love one another. If Jesus so loved you, you ought to love your brothers in Jerusalem -- and love them not just in word, but also in deed.
Paul penned these words more than fifty years before the Apostle John put reed to papyrus. But Paul was motivated by the same truth which we find classically expressed in the latter's Gospel: "For God so loved the world, he gave..."
Now, as I have already intimated, talking about money and giving is not easy. In fact, it is rather difficult. And if I may be so bold, it is rather more difficult for the English than it is for your typical American. But we have to speak about it. We have to because the Church of England has changed--at least in this area--beyond all recognition from the Church which the Victorians left to us. It is today the State Church in name only; gone are the legacies and endowments of their era. The crash in the property markets of 1989 was just that last dramatic event in a long and slow decline. If we do not support our Church through our gifts and tithes, the Church of England will fade away and eventually disappear.
We need to speak about money and giving because giving is what God in Christ has done for us and we are called to be transformed into his image. And we need to speak about money and giving because we cannot claim that Jesus is our Lord unless we allow him to be lord of our pocket books and our household finances. We cannot say that we do not support the Church financially, but instead we give, e.g., of our time. For that would mean that Jesus is Lord of our diary, but not of our pocket book. It would mean that we pick and choose which areas of our lives we allow him to exercise lordship over; which, of course, would mean that we were still the lord and not Jesus.
Now, let me say something about our giving at All Saints'. We are not in dire straits; we are not in a particularly challenging situation. We clearly have more in common with the saints of Corinth than those of Jerusalem. Every year we set a budget which is challenging but should be "meet-able" and every year we fail to meet it. We are just that much short year after year. We pay our bills, we do everything we absolutely have to do, but not much more. Now the reason we set a challenging budget is precisely so that we might do more; so that we might not just pay our bills, but also share our prosperity with the saints in Jerusalem of our day. In other words, the challenging budget is about mission, local, national and international.
And one must remember a substantial portion of our income as a parish comes via the two halls or renting out the parsonage or Ascot Week and not through regular, committed giving. So what happens when the takings from the halls drops off or we have to put a curate in the parsonage or a recession hits Ascot Week particularly hard? Fund raising projects like renting out the halls or Ascot Week are well and good, but in and of themselves alone are not a way to support the work of the parish.
When I was a teen-ager I was introduced to the startling statistic that in any given parish, 5% of the people do 95% of the work. At All Saints', I think, we do a great deal better than that. Here there are so many people who contribute in so many ways to the life of our parish. Nonetheless, in the area of giving, according to the most recent figures, just under 15% of the givers contribute just over 50% of all our gifts.
So I want to ask all of you to do something. I would like to ask you to pray about your giving, both how much God wants you to give and where He would like you to give--for I do not suppose for one moment God intends that all your giving should be through All Saints' parish church. Over the next months, think and pray about your giving. How much should you give and to whom. And do not be surprised if the amount which God lays on your heart is a great deal more than you think you can afford. If, for example, you are currently giving 3% of your take home pay, and the figure you arrive at through prayer is more like 5%; or you now give 5%, which by the way is what the General Synod recommends, and God lays 10% on your heart. And do not be distressed if there is no way you can give that right away. Just work up to it. Over five years add a percentage--or whatever.
One last thing: Note that Paul acknowledges that the giving in Corinth had to be in accordance with the Corinthians ability. He had no intention of impoverishing his people. There are some in our parish, pensioners, students and others, who simply cannot give more than they now give and others who cannot give at all now. I understand that, the Stewardship committee understands that, the PCC understands that and I believe the regular givers understand that. When I was a student, and immediately after my student days, I did not give or gave very little. But I never allowed myself the luxury of suspecting that that time was anything other than a "time out" and that in time it would come to an end. "For God so loved the world he gave..." I will not tell you how much you should give. That's between you and God. But if Christ is to be the Lord of our lives, he must also be lord of our finances; and that includes our giving.
Revd Dr Darrell Hannah

Q: What does the MB think about baldness? Obviously not George Costanza bald, but shaving one's head completely. It comes off as kind-of-MB-ish, potentially, but also frat-boy-ish. Where's the needle on the MB-meter when it comes to a completely shaved head?—Andrew A: There are a couple things to keep in mind when you're thinking about shaving your head as smooth as a bowling ball. First, does your naked head actually look like a bowling ball? Hair hides a lot of flaws, including asymmetrical facial features, funny-shaped skulls, below-average eyebrows, etc. Even a little hair can help a little bit — when you shave it all off, you may end up calling more attention to aspects of your appearance you'd prefer to keep less visible. Second, the smooth-shaven look requires a lot of maintenance. That's one reason that we've advocated for a less aggressively shorn look for bald men in the past. That, plus the fact that there's a pretty good chance you're going to end up looking like a penis, a white supremacist, or a magician. Which is not to say that the full Savalas can't work for some men. As our guide below shows, the closer your shaved head looks to a large brown egg, the better your chances of success.

Arrive in Windhoek and make your way to the hotel. Attend a pre-departure group meeting with your CEO scheduled for the evening. Please make sure you have all of the necessary visas for this tour by the time of the welcome meeting. It is very important to read the Visa section in our trip details to make sure which visas you will need, if any. Please note that not all nationalities are able to obtain a visa on arrival at the border. Windhoek was originally the centre of a Nama leader, Jan Jonker Afrikaner, who defeated the Herero inhabitants of the region in the mid 19th century. Windhoek became the seat of colonial rule in 1892, as the capital of the colony of South-West Africa (Deutsch-Südwestafrika). They built a fort that eventually spanned a town that grew under its protection. During World War I, Windhoek was captured by South African troops and became a British dominion. Until the independence of Namibia was inaugurated in 1990, Windhoek was recognized as the capital of South West Africa as administered by the South African government. The city of Windhoek is traditionally known by two names: Ai-Gams, from the Nama people, which literally refers to the hot springs that were once part of Windhoek, while the second name, Otjomuise, meaning a place of steam, was given by the Herero people. Both traditional names reference the hot springs.
Approximate Distance: 580 km Estimated Travel Time: 8 hrs Today we continue through the eastern part of Namibia, and cross into Botswana and travel into the heart of the Kalahari. Get a glimpse of how the San adapted to the Kalahari Desert. Learn fascinating wilderness survival skills by local Bushmen on an optional Bushman walk. Ghanzi, located western part of Botswana on the northern rim of the Kalahari Desert, is the administrative center of Ghanzi District, and is also known as the "Capital of the Kalahari". Ghanzi is an intriguing town, and is primarily a farming community that supplies the Botswana Meat Commission with most of the required beef produce. In fact, it is the starting point of a 800 km long cattle trek—one of the longest in the world. Cattle are driven on horseback or by truck across the Kalahari southeastward to slaughterhouses at Lobatse. Ghanzi mostly consists of a variety of ethnic cultures for instance the Bushman, Bakgalagadi, Baherero, Batawana as well as Afrikaners. Other spellings include "Gantsi," which is more consistent with the national language of Botswana, Setswana, "Ghansi," and "Gantsi."
Approximate Distance: 280 km Estimated Travel Time: 4 hrs As you travel from the Kalahari towards Maun, you will notice the landscape change slightly, as you approach more fertile lands. After arrival, you can pick up any supplies and prepare for your 1 night/2-day excursion into the Okavango Delta. We recommend you buy a 5 litre bottle of water to take with you into the Delta; this should be sufficient to use as drinking water and also for cleaning purposes. Note: If you pre booked the Okavango Delta Flight, you will be flying today. Maun is the gateway to the Okavango Delta and has for a long time enjoying the reputation of being Botswana's own frontier town. Today it is one of the fastest growing towns in Africa. It was originally established in 1915 by the Batawana, a splinter group of the Bangwato. The name Maun means "place of reeds". Maun, although officially still a village, is the fifth largest town in Botswana. It is an eclectic mix of modern buildings and native huts. Maun is the "tourism capital" of Botswana and the administrative centre of Ngamiland district. Maun has developed rapidly from a rural frontier town and has spread along the Thamalakane River. It now boasts good shopping centres, hotels and lodges as well as car and 4-wheel drive vehicle hire. It still retains a rural atmosphere and local tribesmen continue to bring their cattle to Maun to sell. This community is now distributed along the wide banks of the Thamalakane River where red lechwe can still be seen grazing next to local donkeys, goats and cattle.
Accommodation: Basic bush camping After leaving some of our luggage in Maun, we begin our exciting excursion into the delta as we drive about 1-2 hours (depending on which dock we go to) to the "dock" where we hop into a mokoro, a traditional dug-out canoe, that'll take us deep into the delta. After a couple hours in mokoro, we arrive to our basic "bush camp". Please note that there will be no shower tonight, as our camp is very basic in the wild - you will be compensated by the incredible landscape and wildlife! For the full day today and the morning of day 4, we will enjoy mokoro rides, birdlife and game viewing in the pristine wilderness area of the Okavango Delta, the world's largest inland delta. Don't forget to bring a book with you as there is plenty of time in between the early morning and afternoon game drive where you relax at your camp, read a book or have a nap. In the evenings count the shooting stars, sing with the locals or just unwind and enjoy your sundowner and sit around the campfire. "Where all this water goes is a mystery", Aurel Schultz, 1897 The area of the delta was once part of Lake Makgadikgadi, an ancient lake that dried up some 10,000 years ago. Today, the Okavango River has no outlet to the sea. Instead, it empties onto the sands of the Kalahari Desert, irrigating 15,000 km_ of the desert. Each year some 11 cubic kilometers of water reach the delta. Some of this water reaches further south to create Lake Ngami. The water entering the delta is unusually pure, due to the lack of agriculture and industry along the Okavango River. It passes through the sand aquifers of the numerous delta islands and evaporates/transpirates by leaving enormous quantities of salt behind. This precipitation processes are so strong that the vegetation disappears in the center of the islands and thick salt crusts are formed. The waters of the Okavango Delta are subject to seasonal flooding, which begins about mid-summer in the north and six months later in the south (May/June). The water from the delta is evaporated relatively rapidly by the high temperatures, resulting in a cycle of cresting and dropping water in the south. Islands can disappear completely during the peak flood, then reappear at the end of the season.
Approximate Distance: 300 km Estimated Travel Time: 5 hrs Enjoy one last sunrise in the delta before travelling back Maun in first a mokoro, then by vehicle. Pick up your luggage, and proceed on to Gweta to our unique experience camping under ancient Baobab trees. The town is situated between the larger towns of Nata and Maun and is on the edge of the Makgadikgadi Pans, an immense area devoid of anything but salt and shimmering horizon. As the largest expanse of 'nothingness' on earth, the pans have area the size of Switzerland, and are clearly visible from outer-space. What is known today as the Makgadikgadi Pans is only a relic of what used to be one of the biggest inland lakes Africa has ever seen-Lake Makgadikgadi. The Makgadikgadi pan consists of two main pans, Namely Ntwetwe and Sowa pan, both of which are surrounded by myriad smaller pans. Although it is totally devoid of any water, people used to live there before it was declared state land. Villagers where allowed to graze their livestock inside the boundaries during dry season.
Approximate Distance: 420 km Estimated Travel Time: 6 hrs Today we journey to the area of Chobe National Park, home to the largest elephant population in Southern Africa. The best way to appreciate one of Botswana's national parks and its thousands of resident elephants, crocodiles, and hippos, is on an optional sunset boat cruise on the Chobe River. You may also choose to embark on a game drive in search of lions, antelope, and of course elephants. Kasane is situated on the banks of the Chobe River, near its mouth. This is where the Chobe and Zambezi rivers meet, creating a border area of four countries – Namibia, Botswana, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Chobe National Park is Botswana's first national park, and is situated along the Chobe River. It has one of the largest concentrations of wildlife in Africa and one of the world's last remaining sizeable wilderness areas. By size, this is the third largest park (11,000 sq km) of the country, though it is definitely the most diverse and spectacular. The park is probably best known for its spectacular elephant population: with over 120,000 it has the highest elephant concentration of Africa. Moreover, most of them are probably part of the largest continuous surviving elephant population on Earth. The elephant population seems to have solidly built up since 1990, from the few initial thousands. By chance, they have not been affected by the massive illicit exploitation of the 1970's and 1980's. Elephants living here are Kalahari elephants, the largest in size of all known elephant species. Yet they are characterized by rather brittle ivory and short tusks. Damage caused by the high numbers of elephants is rife in some areas. In fact, concentration is so high throughout Chobe that culls have been considered, but are too controversial and have thus far been rejected. During the dry season, these elephants sojourn in Chobe River and the Linyanti River areas. During the rain season, they make a 200 km migration to the south-east region of the park. Their distribution zone however outreaches the park and spreads to north-western Zimbabwe.
Approximate Distance: 100 km Estimated Travel Time: 3 hrs (depending on ferry crossing) Please note that this border crossing also involves a ferry crossing. This might add a extra of time to our travel time. Cross the Zambezi River by ferry to enter into Zambia and continue to Livingstone. We will spend the last two days of our tour here, a great base to see both natural wonders and take part in some exciting activities. Get up close (and wet from the spray) while awing at the immense Victoria Falls, raft the whitewater of the mighty Zambezi, and for the more adventurous, bungee jump with the Victoria Falls in view. David Livingstone was born on March 19, 1813 in the village of Blantyre, South Lanarkshire, Scotland. He first studied Greek, medicine, and theology at the University of Glasgow and while working in London, joined the London Missionary Society became a minister. He originally planned to gain access to China through his medical knowledge. The Opium Wars, which were raging at this stage with no signs of peace on the horizon, forced Livingstone to consider other options. From 1840 he worked in Bechuanaland (present-day Botswana), and in the period 1852–56, he explored the African interior, and was the first European to see the Mosi-oa-Tunya waterfall, which he renamed Victoria Falls after his monarch, Queen Victoria. The Victoria Falls waterfalls occur in a country that is perfectly flat. From its source on the borders of the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Zambezi River meanders for 1300 km across the wooded plateau of Zambia, eroding for itself a shallow valley on its mild descent to the site of the falls. The river eventually found a weak spot on the lower lip of the surface over which it passed, and forced a passage which was steadily deepened into an exit gorge. During the last half million years the river has scoured out eight of these cracks across its bed. The Victoria falls occur where the river is 1688m wide, presents the spectacle of an average maximum of 550 million liters of water a minute tumbling over the lip of the trench in five main falls, the Devil's Cataract, Main falls, Horseshoe Falls, Rainbow falls and the Eastern Cataract. The highest of these is Rainbow falls, on an average 108 m high. A peak flood sees 750 million liters of water in one minute hurtling over the falls. The name Zambezi comes from the Tonka tribe, also meaning Great River, but the Sotho-speaking Kololo people of the upper reaches of the river gave it the well-known name of Mosi o a Thunya (smoke that rises). The Lozi people call it by the same name but translated it into smoke that sounds. The Ndebele call it aManza Thunqayo (the water that rises like smoke). The Namibian people call it Chinotimba (a noise-making place like the distant sound of digging). Please note that the entrance fee to The victoria falls is not included in the tour. This will have to be paid by yourself.
Depart at any time.

In tonight's game thread I saw some very troubling dialog. And I saw some users that I would typically call level-headed acting like fools tonight.
I saw someone state that Mussina was injured. Considering he left the game because of a groin problem, that's a fair statement. However, since this particular poster had a Red Sox-related username, they were raked across the burning cinders and accused of inciting and baiting.
Hello?!? McFly!! All the user said was that Mussina was injured. Nothing more, nothing less. How that can be construed as "baiting", I have no idea.
If anyone has had issues with this poster in the past, the posts in question should be reported to the moderators. Taking the matter into your own hands and "defending" the Yankees by ripping another user to shreds is NOT appropriate.
I saw lots of comments about "this is our board", "get your own board", etc. Guess what - it's my board. And it is open to fans of ALL teams. If they want to participate in the game thread they're welcome to. Anyone who tells someone they're not allowed to post here (for any reason) is at risk of losing their membership permanently, and we don't want that.
There are remedies for any problems you have: reporting a post or the ignore list. I strongly urge ALL the game thread regulars to start utilizing these methods instead of becoming game thread vigilanties and embarassing yourself and the entire community with your comments.
I've had to suspend two quality members tonight - and I probably could have justified suspending more people. I don't want to have to keep suspending people due to comments made in the game thread. If this sort of thing persists, the game thread forum will be shut down - and I won't hesitate to do it as you all know.
If anyone has any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Skin-like sound.
A warmth, sensitivity, and articulation reminiscent of calfskin all characterize Renaissance heads. These heads have a very warm and tonal sound that's great for melodic expression and affords a wider, more balanced sound spectrum for tympani, snares, toms, and bass drums in any drumming application.
For snare drums and timbales, the textured surface provides excellent stick and brush response that will not degrade under harsh playing. For toms, Renaissance combines the warmth and depth of laminated heads, the clarity and response of coated heads, with the resonance and projection of clear heads.
Put the warmth of skin onto your toms. Order today!

Former Los Angeles school board member and Coro Foundation President John Greenwood of San Pedro died unexpectedly early Thursday morning.
News of Greenwood's death stunned friends and colleagues.
"I'm stricken," said Dan Dixon, a fellow board member on the Northwest San Pedro Neighborhood Council. "I can't picture this community without him."
"I can't believe it," said Chuck Hart of San Pedro, who had worked with Greenwood on several projects through the years.
Greenwood, 67 and a regular exerciser, had just passed his physical two months ago. His death appeared to be caused by an atrial arrhythmia, according to family and friends.
Greenwood was rushed to the hospital shortly after midnight.
"It was sudden, completely unpredictable," Dixon said. "There was nothing anyone could do."
Greenwood was among San Pedro's most respected community leaders, frequently tapped to help broker some of the area's thorniest issues. He became a real-estate agent after serving eight years on the school board in the 1980s. A vice president of development for San Pedro Pedro Peninsula Hospital, Greenwood had been long active in Habitat for Humanity and other causes.
"He was a peacemaker, not a warrior," said childhood friend Diana Nave of San Pedro. Nave's husband, Pat, a retired Port of Los Angeles attorney, said Greenwood was known for his ability "to listen and to hear and to speak civilly."
The Greenwoods were godparents to the Naves' two children.
Diana Nave knew Greenwood when they were both growing up in La Crescenta and attended the same Methodist church.
"He was in (Boy) Scouts with my brother, he was an Eagle Scout," she said. "He was one of those guys who was respectful and cared about things."
An interest in politics emerged early, Diana Nave said, recalling the time a young Greenwood put up a lawn sign for the Democrat running for president - right next to his parents' lawn sign for the Republican candidate.
After college, Greenwood became involved with the Coro Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to fostering leadership and public service skills in young people.
He was well-suited to become the foundation's president in Southern California two years ago, friends said.
"He had the ability to bring different folks together," said Jerry Gaines, a retired schoolteacher who had worked with Greenwood through the years on numerous projects. "He had the ability to be reasonable. He did his homework and always worked for the common goal of doing what was best for the community."
"He was not afraid to speak up when he knew he was right," Hart said. "He was an activist, but he was very moderate and reserved and professional in his demeanor."
One-time political foe and former Los Angeles City Councilwoman Joan Milke Flores said she respected Greenwood's years of work in the community and as a school board president and member.
Flores pulled out a whisker-thin victory - 236 votes - over Greenwood in 1981 when the two were locked in an intense runoff campaign for what was then the open City Council seat representing the Watts-to-San Pedro 15th District.
"Although we had a very spirited campaign for the City Council, I always respected his service on the school board," Flores said.
Years later, it was Greenwood and his wife, Caren, then partners in the real estate business, who sold Flores her San Pedro condominium.
"During that time we had several conversations about our pride in our daughters who were both lawyers," Flores said. "I'm very sad about this."
Greenwood was the founding president and a board member of the Northwest San Pedro Neighborhood Council and attended Monday night's meeting as usual.
He also was chairman of the city of Los Angeles' Citizens Oversight Commission, a panel that monitors the spending of $650 million in funds for police, fire and emergency service construction.
Several years ago, Greenwood was appointed by former Councilwoman Janice Hahn, now the area's congresswoman, to head up a task force charged with studying the controversial Ponte Vista housing development that had been proposed and still awaits a final conclusion.
Caroline Brady-Sinco, director of development at Harbor Interfaith Shelter in San Pedro, said Greenwood was gifted in rising above disagreements when it came to tackling tough community issues.
"Instead of getting emotional, he was really good about looking at the facts and figures," she said. "He felt passionate (about issues), but he always stayed very measured and kind. And he had a good sense of humor about himself."
Perhaps among Greenwood's lesser known talents was his singing voice, said Brady-Sinco, who served in the San Pedro Rotary Club with Greenwood (voted Rotarian of the Year in 2002).
"He had the best singing voice," she said. "You could always tell when he was there, we sounded so much better."
Born Jan. 9, 1945, Greenwood received a master's degree in political science from the University of Michigan.
He participated in the Coro Fellows Program in 1967-68 and afterward took a paid position as the foundation's director of training, spending more than seven years training young people interested in public service.
He was vice president of development for San Pedro Peninsula Hospital (now Little Company of Mary in San Pedro) for 10 years and also served on the boards of the Angels Gate Cultural Center and the Gang Alternatives Program.
"I can't imagine anyone more exemplary of the notion of a love for community service than John Greenwood," Dixon said. "He was just a tremendous asset to the community, a truly giving, decent person - and a wonderful friend."
His wife, Caren, is a former elementary school teacher in San Pedro and their daughter, Elizabeth, is a deputy Los Angeles city attorney.
Other survivors include a brother and two sisters.
Services are pending.

Hurley was surprised to find that many people on the north coast 'adorn themselves with an immense profusion of ornaments, which are family heirlooms, though the actual reason for wearing them I have not yet ascertained'. This woman's large quantity of ornaments suggests that she was preparing for a special event, or had dressed up especially for Hurley's benefit.
