This is my catharsis.
I realize that I am melodramatic and emotional, but this is the most piercing and frustrating situation. My boyfriend and I have lived 1,048 miles away from each other since September 2010... and it is extremely painful. We have been through more than most mid-20 year old couples have, and are truly proud of everything we've gotten through together. Unfortunately because of money (or lack-there-of) and jobs, we are going to be apart until at least August of 2011. We would like to get engaged and start making wedding arrangements, but money is preventing that from happening.
I miss him so much, and he inspires me in so many ways, so I decided to keep this sketchbook diary for him. When I think of something that reminds me of him, or hear a song that I can really feel, I draw it. He doesn't know about it yet, but when it's full, I'll give it to him. And then probably start another one. The only time I feel better is when I'm drawing. I wish he could come home...

Raising funds to support a non-profit organization or charitable organization can be difficult and time consuming. ClubShop makes it easy for a non-profit organization to raise funds quickly and on an ongoing basis. Here are 2 fundraisers your non-profit organization can do to raise money.
Place a ClubShop banner ad on your website and get people to become a Free ClubShop Member. For the lifetime of their membership, when a member you refer makes a purchase in our ClubShop Online Mall, your non-profit organization will earn a charitable donation from us. Members also earn Cash Back on all their ClubShop purchases. If your member gets a ClubShop Rewards Card and makes a purchase with a participating offline ClubShop Rewards Merchant, your non-profit organization will earn a charitable donation from us!
The charitable donation you earn from your member's purchases will vary, but will average around 2% and can be as high as 6% of the purchase.
If the average purchases in a month by a Member you referred totaled $100, approximately $2 would be donated to your organization as a charitable donation. Here's an example of how much the donations can be:
500 Members referred X $2 each = $1,000 per month or $12,000 per year
Purchase ClubShop Rewards Cards at a discounted price and sell these cards at a higher value. Also, when someone makes a purchase at one of our offline ClubShop Rewards Merchants or in our ClubShop Online Mall, your non-profit organization will earn a charitable donation from us and the cardholder will earn Cash Back.
It's a win-win situation! We are the only fundraiser where you can earn a charitable donation from online and offline purchases at ClubShop merchants worldwide! Not only will your non-profit organization raise funds with our program, but you are also helping people save money when they shop online and offline.
This is the quickest way to raise money for your non-profit organization! How many cards you purchase and the amount you sell the cards for will determine how much you can make. Here's an example of how much you could make if you purchased 5,000 Cards at $1.50 per card ($7,500 Cost).
5,000 Cards X $10 = $50,000 Sales minus $7,500 Cost = $42,500 Profit per card fundraiser
Not only could you raise money selling our card, you also earn a charitable donation on all your member's ClubShop purchases.
All your organization has to do is get the word out! Help people to earn Cash Back on their purchases and have a percentage of their ClubShop purchases donated to your organization.

UM-Dearborn conference will bring together industry leaders to discuss the future of electric power, alternative energy sources and the electrification of the automobile
February 23, 2010
DEARBORN / Feb. 23, 2010---Industry leaders will discuss the future of electric power, alternative energy sources and the electrification of the automobile during a one-day conference titled Energy for the Future at the University of Michigan-Dearborns College of Engineering and Computer Science (CECS) next month.
The event, which is free and open to the public, will take place from 7 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. on Tuesday, March 16 in the BorgWarner Auditorium of the campuss Institute for Advanced Vehicle Systems building. Registration is required by visiting the following Web site: www.engin.umd.umich.edu/energy_conf/register.html.
The conference will include a keynote talk by Stephen Forrest, vice president for research at the University of Michigan, and a preview of the public television program "The Future of Electricity."

"This event will discuss one of the most important topics of our time, which is the sustainability of the energy infrastructure, said Subrata Sengupta, dean of UM-Dearborns CECS. It will cover generation and distribution of electricity, the role of alternative energy sources, and the electrification of personal mobility. These are topics that are crucial to the nation, with some important implications for Michigan's economy. Given our history of engagement with industry, we are proud to host this conference, bringing together some of the best minds in the country on this topic."

text: Riding The Tiger "I discovered that being a President is like riding a tiger. A man has to keep on riding or be swallowed." Harry S. Truman Posted November 20, 2012 By Lara M. Brown Was the Presidential Election a Progressive Win? 2012 Presidential Election Results by State. Map by Ernesto Barahona, November 8, 2012. CC-SA. On the surface, President Obama's reelection appears to have been the electoral equivalent of a progressive exclamation point. Obama not only won 8 of the original 10 battleground states (winning: CO, FL, IA, NH, NM, NV, OH, VA; losing: IN and NC), but also earned a whopping 332 electoral votes. A cursory comparison of CNN's exit polls from 2008 and 2012 also seems to suggest that the "emerging Democratic majority" first described by John Judis and Ruy Teixeira is beginning to take hold. Latinos, Asians, and young people (18-29) made up a larger share of the electorate in 2012 than they did in 2008 (each group gained a percentage point), while whites made up a smaller share (72% in 2012 instead of 74% in 2008). Further, President Obama's margins among Latinos and Asians grew between the two elections by four (from 67% to 71%) and 11 percentage points (62% to 73%), respectively. Some have even gone further to argue that the country is now "center-left" because "the Republican Party lost the middle everywhere, and as a result the map got slightly bluer everywhere." But is this the correct interpretation of the trends above? The simple answer to this question is "not exactly." As James E. Campbell, SUNY Buffalo, noted during last weekend's Northeastern Political Science Association Conference, the 2012 exit polls also revealed that 51% of the electorate believes that the government is doing too much, while only 43% believe it should do more. Additionally, more of the electorate said that the Affordable Care Act should be repealed than not (49% to 44%). Beyond these data, Sean Trende at RealClearPolitics.com pointed out the real issue that neither progressives nor conservatives can afford to ignore in their interpretations of the results: "The 2012 elections actually weren't about a demographic explosion with non-white voters. Instead, they were about a large group of white voters not showing up." So who didn't show up? Read more → Partisanship 2012 Election Barack Obama Tweet

The Psychological Horoscope Analysis is a remarkable achievement within contemporary astrology. Combining the use of astrological insight with modern psychology, it can give you a detailed portrait of your personality.
This text, which is individually tailored to your personal astrological profile, describes your talents as well as those aspects which are more challenging to help you learn more about the structure of your personality. It is a step towards integration and development and a valuable tool for all those interested in understanding and realising their potential.
The text by the astrologer and Jungian psychologist Dr. Liz Greene is lively and thought provoking. It does not contain any "Astrologese" and is psychologically very deep.
The Psychological Horoscope Analysis discusses the following topics as shown by your natal chart:
This analysis takes a serious look at problems than can occur in the life of an adult, it is therefore not available for children under fourteen.
"...for years I have been looking for some inner answers. Have had charts done, psychic reading, etc. When I received your Psychological Analysis I was overwelmed at the insight you gave me. I'm 68 now and I wish I had it sooner, or maybe I was not ready for it. I know I have a lot of work to do, but your chart has given me a handle now and I no longer have to let my wondering conscious mind interfere."Read more Feedback

When The Metropolitan Museum of Art opens its newly installed Arts of Korea Gallery this month, it will showcase two works by Il Lee (M.F.A. '82), a Korean-born, New York-based artist best known for creating innovative works both on paper and canvas using ballpoint pens.
The exhibit brings the artist's move from Korea to New York full circle, explains Jung Lee Sanders, whose gallery Art Projects International has been representing Lee since 1996.Read More »
Just before he was scheduled to do a poetry reading at SFMOMA last year in response to a work in the collection as part of the Pop-Up Poets Series for the exhibition The Steins Collect, Arnold Kemp discovered that Mary Heilmann's Fire and Ice Remix had been taken off view.
"I asked the Museum to project an image of the painting on a blank wall," Kemp says. He printed copies of the painting which he gave to the audience. Some were in color. Some in black and white. He told the audience that before he would read, they had to take a minute to try to transform the projection into the actual painting.Read More »
On the kibbutz where Israeli-born video artist Oded Hirsch grew up, there is almost always a ready-made cast of family and friends excited to star in his work.
For his first major piece, 50 Blue, half a dozen men from the kibbutz—a collective living community in Israel — volunteered to hoist Hirsch's father in his wheelchair up to a watchtower while standing in the Sea of Galilee in the rain.
"I was surprised because people really came to me and said 'we want to be part of it,'" he says.Read More »

"There's a lot of soul in the eyes of our characters and that's because of the decisions that the artist made. The eyes are really only black discs, but they're drawn so carefully and cleverly that the characters look alive. You're drawn to them. And I think that's the difference. As much as I love computer animation, I still feel there's a place for the hand of the artist."Read More »

Lee was part of the team led by sound editor/designer Paul N. J. Ottosson, whose efforts were recognized at the 2013 Academy Awards with the Oscar for Best Sound Editing (in a rare tie, with Skyfall).

"It's really important to me that my pots are used, not just looked at and pondered," says Joan, whose show, Full Circle, is on display at the Mary E. Black Gallery.

When Lina Sergie Attar MArch 01 left Syria in 1998 fresh from architecture school in Aleppo, she was excited to arrive in the US and start her studies at RISD, which soon became her "first home away from home." She had no way of knowing that 15 years later she would be turning to the RISD community and others to help with what she calls "the largest humanitarian crisis of our lifetime."
In the intervening years, Attar has graduated, taught architecture in the US and co-founded Karam – which means "generosity" in Arabic. Since 2011 the Chicago-based nonprofit has focused on providing humanitarian relief to Syrians – both inside the country and in neighboring areas – as she has watched with disbelief as her homeland has become hopelessly entangled in a civil war that threatens to drag on for years to come.Read More »
Art and design is a growing sector that has a significant impact on our economy. Additionally, people who pursue a degree at a specialized school for art and design are prepared for careers in a wide range of fields.

For all these reasons, we know that art and design degrees at AICAD schools are a great investment.

Comments: I love these shoes. I am 61 years old and have been suffering with severe pain in my right heel for many years. I feel this pain daily, walking, running, driving, etc. I had been running on a shoe that is designed for a forefoot strike that allowed me to keep running. I have had two runs in these shoes and wore them for about 16 hours total. My heel comfort is unbelievable. No pain at all!!! I have not experienced any of the blistering other people complain about. They have a very neutral running feel which is what I like. These are not light weight racers but rather a great every day training shoe. After my first run, I went out and bought another pair for myself so I can save them for when the first pair wears out. I also bought a pair for my 16 year old son and he loves them (he is a Football running back and is using these for street training). The quality of cushioning is the best I ever had.From: Brian Lunn, Marshfield, MA, USA
Comments: Very very average effort from Salomon. I cannot for the life of me understand why they can't produce a lower and lighter trail shoe that's not 200 dollars. The Mission is "the shoe for runners who have been running trails in road shoes" - really? I have done 40km mountain runs in racing flats and they worked better offroad than the Missions and on road the Missions are horrible. After selling my Missions (very hot to run in, heel too high, not at all flexible) I found a pair of their casual shoes called the Kalalau and the sole on those looks perfect for a lightweight daily trainer - lower heel drop and low weight. It's not hard Salomon, look around, the other brands are getting lower, lighter, and well priced shoes to us, so do the same. And no, the Sense Mantra is not reasonably priced.From: Andrew, Durban, South Africa
Comments: Salomon should stick to the trail shoes, these are awful to run in, had blisters soon after a few miles. I now wear them just to train my clients in them because they look awesome. just not made for running. From: Greg, New York, New York, USA
Comments: True mates, i have blisters on the arch whenever running on xr mision... really dissapointing....From: kid, singapore
Comments: More of the same from me, blisters. I have been running in the Speedcross for 2 years, finished my first 50 miler in them and never once had any blisters or discomfort, I was looking for a new road shoe and thought I'd try the XRMission but these shoes are not for me. Went out for a quick 6 miles and new I was in trouble inside of mile 2, blisters just behind the balls of both feet and blisters on both achilles. I will for sure keep running the trails in my Speedcross 3's, but on the road I'm going back to old faithful.From: Brooklin, SM, CA, USA
Comments: Running in these shoes was the best my achilles has felt in six months. I've been struggling with this pain and tried switching through a number of different shoes to no avail. I think it's most likely the abnormally high arches in these shoes, that the other reviewers mentioned, that is working the magic for my achilles. So while they may cause blisters for some people, they feel precisely right for me. The heel to toe transition feels swift and natural with these and they're surprisingly light.From: Alan, Rochester, NY USA
Comments: XR Mission: looks great, feels bad. I'm sticking with the Crossmax. One run was all it took for me to know that this shoe wasn't what I was looking for. Strange rubbing behind the ball of my foot and I even experienced unusual toe joint pain in one foot. All in just 6 miles. Oh well, the shoes look great on my feet at my office and they are good walking around town shoes. No more running in those suckers for me. The crossmax, however, runs great. I can't say enough good things about that shoe.From: Jake, CO, USA
Comments: Another set of blistered arches here. I've been running in Salomons for the 5+ years - XAs, then XTs and logged 2000+ miles last year in my XR Crossmax and have never had a problem until the XR Mission. Salomon needs to go back and redesign this shoe. I found the culprit inside the shoe - there is support band near the 'SensiFit' webbing that is strung too tight and rubs on the front of the arch, just behind the ball of the foot. Sorry Salomon - you botched an otherwise great shoe with a basic design flaw. Looking forward to seeing the XR Mission 2...From: Matt, Upstate, NY, USA
Comments: Ding, ding, ding. Just put my first run in with these and got blisters on both feet which has never happened before. Curious what the return policy is. I'm going back to the Crossmax.From: Matt, Spokane, WA, USA
Comments: I just wanted to agree with the reviewers that had the blistered arches. I've never had that happen with any pair of shoes until I used these. My first run for 10 miles was all it took to rub my arches raw. I LOVE the look and feel of these shoes and I feel that the construction and quality of the shoe is second to none. Really disappointed that I can't use them anymore though.From: Steve, San Ramon, CA, USA
Comments: I wore these shoes while running the Pass Mtn 26k in Mesa, AZ. A Salomon vendor was demo-ing shoes at the event. I tried the Salomon XR Mission because I was battling right Achilles tendonitis that I acquired while wearing the Brooks Pure Grit. I need a higher heel to toe elevation than the Brooks Pure Grit offered, so the Salomons seemed to fit my need. I have been running for 20+ years, and these shoes provided the best cushioning of any shoe I have ever laced up. My Achilles felt wonderful. These shoes felt like a pillow on my feet while I ran through canyons, washes, gullies, switchbacks, across desert plains and up and over Pass Mtn. I was truly amazed how these shoes chewed up the vicious terrain we ran on that day. BUT just like Jean said, I felt hotspots developing less than a mile into the run and by mile 2 I had blisters on both arches. I even wear Features Elite blister proof/moisture wicking socks. By mile 5, I was hobbling as the blisters had popped and I was running on raw skin. If it was not for the cushioning these shoes provided, I would have crawled back to the finish line. I managed to finish the run, however, my feet were raw for a week afterward. Like Jean said, my foot shifted around a lot inside of the shoe as well. I like the lacing system but some parts of my foot felt locked in place and other parts were sliding around. From: Jeremy, Chicago, IL USA
Comments: I am a big fan of Salomon, and have 3 of their shoes in my current trail line up, but I do not like this shoe. I have put six 5 mile sessions on them and cannot go any further due to excessive blisters in my arch. I have never had a shoe do this. Generally I can run with most right out of the box. And these do not seem to get any better. I think the lacing system is to blame. It does not allow for a tight enough fit thru the center of the shoe so there is too much movement. Also the lacing system broke on my last run (after only 6 runs). Not impressed with these.From: Ryan, TX, USA

I hope it isn't a stress fracture. That would suck for us. As is, I am in no hurry to get him back. Take our lumps, and let these guys grow as is. No need to make any moves to get better as we aren't in that phase of the rebuild.

Meet your in-country representative at the airport before setting out on this unique Malagasy adventure.
Please be aware that your driver will be waiting for you at the International Arrival gate. An airport sign with your name should be seen and you may have to look for the Kensington Tours logo if the airport gets overcrowded. If you cannot locate your driver please remain calm and approach the Airport Welcome Service. An announcement intended for your driver can be broadcasted there, and this will then become the rally point. In the case of an emergency or you cannot locate your driver, the emergency contact details are on your documents and you should call the mentioned numbers before attempting to leave the airport.
Enjoy a private vehicle transfer to/from the Antananarivo International Airport.
Today, hop into your privately driven vehicle as you depart towards Andasibe, making route from Tana and then southwards to Antsirabe. You will cross the highlands via the famous national RN7, which leads to the South of Madagascar. A lunch-stop is scheduled in Ambatolampy where the opportunity presents itself to meet the passionate villagers who make handmade pots and other frequently used household items. In the afternoon, you will reach the town of Antsirabe, known as the "Vichy Malgache" and famous for its thermal waters and rickshaws. This highland crossing continues into the region of Betsileo, for a stop in the town of Ambositra, famous for its workshops and Zafimaniry Wood Carvings.
Continue this Madagascar adventure with a drive in a Southern direction, in the comfort of a private vehicle. Pass through the scenic highlands area as you make way from Ambositra towards the Ranomafana Rainforest.
Today you will visit the Ranomafana forest; this forest is known for species of bamboo lemurs found in Madagascar. The most common is the lesser bamboo lemur which can also be seen in Andasibe. The greater bamboo lemur is very rare and only known to be found in two locations. You may find them by hearing the crack of big bamboo stems as they feed. The star of Ranomafana is the golden bamboo lemur "Hapalemuraureus" which was only discovered in 1986 whilst researchers were trying to find the greater bamboo lemur. The park was created soon after this discovery. The largest lemur in the park is the elusive Milne-Edwards sifaka, often spotted high up in the forest canopy. You should also look out for red bellied lemurs which live in couples with their offspring and red fronted brown lemurs which live in large groups. Ranomafana is also a birding hotspot but finding birds in the dense forest can be very tricky.
Almost half of the world's chameleon's population, which being some 60 different species, are found only in Madagascar. They are known for their ability to change color as these reptiles can alter their appearance in response to changes in temperature, light, and mood. By rotating each eye independently, chameleons can see to all sides and directions without moving their heads, making meals out of flies in a flash!
Ranging in size from 30gm (1.1 oz) to 9 kg (20 lb), lemurs share many of the common primate traits, such as divergent digits on their hands and feet and nails instead of claws. However, their brain-to-body size ratio is smaller than that of anthropoid primates, and among many other traits they share with other primates, they have a "wet nose" (rhinarium). Lemurs are generally social and communicate more with scents and vocalizations than with visual signals. Many lemur adaptations are in response to Madagascar's highly seasonal environment.
Start the day off bright and early as you head out on a hike through the forest for a day of exploration. Set out on foot, accompanied by your expert guide, to the deep regions of the National Park of Ranomafana to view the diverse variety of Lemurs living here. The park's star attraction is the golden bamboo lemur, often found grazing amongst the bamboo thickets. Marvel at the colorful bird-life and uniquely beautiful flora and fauna of this rich natural habitat.
Enjoy your private vehicle transfer from Ranomafana to Fianarantsoa. The drive will take approximately one hour.
Today enjoy your private guided tour of old town Fianarantsoa. It is perched onto the hills with its beautiful traditional architecture reflecting the different stages of colonization. You will walk through the streets of Fianarantsoa and stop at the major landmarks to know more about the connection between the Betsileo and the period of colonization.
This adventure continues as you depart the highlands area in the comfort of a privately driven vehicle, and travel further South towards the semi-dry landscapes this truly diverse island country. The first scheduled stop of the day is in the small town of Ambalavao, one of the cultural hubs of the country, boasting a variety of architectural treasures and quaint veranda-lined houses. Enjoy a visit to the entirely natural Paper Factory in Antemoro. Here, inlaid paper is created from plants and flowers which are exported nowadays all over the globe to create some of the world's most famous and beautiful greeting cards. The day's journey is completed upon your arrival into Ranohira the main town outside Isalo National Park. Isalo National Park is home to some of Madagascar's most stunning scenery, with barren landscapes, twisted rock formations and extraordinary plants life.
Spend the day exploring the almost lunar landscapes of the Isalo National Park. With an expert guide at your side, travel through the deep canyons of this stellar location. Visit the wonderful waterfalls and natural pools as they pass, providing an ideal opportunity for a refreshing swim or to take some memorable photos. As your day comes to an end enjoy watching the natural beauty of the sun-setting below the horizon of this stunning national park.
A private vehicle with driver will be at your disposal for the day.
Enjoy your private vehicle transfer from Isalo National Park to Ifaty. Please keep in mind that your transfer from Tolaira to Ifaty will be a bumpy road commute and can take up to two hours. The whole drive is approximately five hours.

"I would highly recommend the tour guide that we had in the Serengetti . He was extremely knowledgeable, very helpful and courteous. We all agree that Kensington has first class staff working for them in Africa. All the camps that we stayed at were absolutely beautiful except perhaps for the one in Lake Manyara. All in all it was a spectacular trip!"

"Our trip to Masai Mara via Kensington ran very smoothly. We stayed at the Mara West Lodge. Beautiful location atop a ridge overlooking the Masai Mara plains. Our luxury tents were quite comfortable and the staff/service at the lodge were great. Meals were very nice especially the daily soups. Our guide, Steve, was also great...so knowledgeable and eager to show us many interesting things. He planned our daily game drives and took us on a nature hike one afternoon. He clearly knows and understands this ecosystem. He has an amazing eye, finding animals in fields of tall grasses. Our entire family had an amazing time, trip of a lifetime...would love to go back!"

"Once again, a perfect trip. From Elizabeth's planning to Godfrey's guiding, we could not have asked for a more thorough and well planned safari. I can't wait to come back and do it again, this time with a Kilimanjaro climb added onto the trip!"

"The entire trip was superb - all the transfers, the lodging and the food, the safari experience and the knowledgeable guides. The guide's ability to spot an animal and identify it at a great distance allowed us to see and photograph all the animals on our list and then some. The lodgings were even better than we had hoped and the staff could not possibly have been better. Our trip of a lifetime turned out to be just that."

"We finally returned from the most magical vacation in Morocco and we cannot thank Lily and Kensington Tours enough!! This trip was beyond amazing and we are so appreciative for everything done to make this trip happen last minute for us!
We had a spectacular tour guide that spoke 8 languages, Ismail, and the friendliest and warmest driver, Said, whom made the experience absolutely phenomenal! Not only did we learn and see, but we laughed, danced, ate like pigs, kissed camels and snakes, ran in the Sahara desert under the stars, and enjoyed life - the best gift of all!

"I am so happy that I used Kensington Tours to help with my dream trip to Cape Town South Africa. I was looking for a well respected tour company that planned private guided tours that was not going to cause me my leg, lol. I begin searching companies by reputation and value. I narrowed it down to Kensington Tours because of the quality and value. I felt taken care of prior to my departure due to the detailed itinerary.
From the time of got off the plane to the time I headed back to the states, I was in excellent hands. The service was EXCELLENT! I will definitely use Kensington again. Certainly, a trip of a lifetime!"

"I have travelled all my life. I've combed much of Europe, from The arctic north in Norway to the streets of Seville in Spain, the beaches of Cannes and Nice in France and the medieval heart of Bologna in Italy. I've been on two African safaris (one tented, one not), both "luxurious." I've been on more than a dozen jaunts to India, some guided, others not. Over the years I have discovered that I had rather be lost and disoriented in a foreign country than submit once again to the unbending schedule of a guided tour. Hence I had given up tours of any kind, until Molly Kelly, an American Express travel agent, suggested I might want simply to list the places my friends and I wished to see in Morocco then let Kensington Tours make accessing them in an orderly way not only possible but thoroughly enjoyable as well. And this Kensington Tours did. They pulled our disparate destinations together and designed a far, far better route than we could ever have done on our own. They satisfied all our requests and threw in delicious additions, areas of interest we had never considered or even heard of. Our accommodations were well within our means and wonderful. Our guide and driver, not to mention our Mercedes SUV, could not have pleased us more. In other words, thanks to Molly and her recommending Kensington Tours, we had a sensational holiday. "

"Africa had always been a myth in mind since I was child that was up until a week ago. I just returned from an epic safari adventure! Kenya, Tanzania and the Maasai are sorely missed.
Words cannot fully express the magic of this ever-flowing journey. It was awe-inspiring, breathtaking, free and powerful. My mind keeps playing tricks on me; thinking rather hoping that I'm going to see a giraffe cross a busy NYC street :)
The memories will resonate for a lifetime. To boot, I went on this trip solo; female traveler. Not sure any of it would have been possible w/out Kensington Tours!!! Thank you..."

"I had a wonderful trip visiting the mountain gorillas in Uganda. We were able to get really close to the gorillas and watched their interactions with each other. The local people are so gracious and made every minute a delight. The accomodations were great. I loved waking up in the morning to the sounds of the forest. The added luxury of a massage was a great way to end the trip!"

"Our family of 6 traveled to Morocco for a 9 day Imperial cities discovery, I was absolutely amazing. Our guide Lahcen Zaaim was the best guide we have EVER had and we have traveled to many countries. There was not one subject that he was not knowledgeable about. He made the trip sooooo memorable. He was so flexible and when he picked us up in the mornings to head out, he was talking nonstop to tell us soo much about everything we were seeing. There was soooo much to see in Morocco and he made sure we saw it all.. He truly has a gift in the touring business, you feel as if your leaving your best friend when the trip is over. When we got to the airport in casablanca, he spotted us before we saw him and of course, we asked him, how did you recognize us? He even went as far as to get the King of Moroccos artist to meet us at our riad the night before we left to return home late to do our names in moroccan arabic to frame, They were beautiful, He showed us a picture of the Kings Face he had done for the Palace! Lily Baffour from Kensington planned our trip and she was amazing, planning everything as she thought we would like based on what I told her. She did an Outstanding job and literally sent our Iteniaries by next day air in a beautifully done spiral bound personally book for each family that was going on the trip, SOOOOOO IMPRESSED and she even got the guide we requested!!!! I cant say enough about this trip and Kensington, we will definitely use again!!! We experienced a VERY different culture in going to Morocco and thats what we wanted, a Very different exotic trip and thats what we got!!!! Again our accomodations we Top Notch, staying in the TRuly authenic Riads, they were SOOOOO Luxurious, Plan on taking another suitcase or buying one there because you will buy more things to bring home than any other trip because of all the Handicrafts there, especially in Fes!!!

Hi all,
I have had a Davis Monitor II WX station for about 10 years. (see it http://home.comcast.net/~smdamelio here). Recently I have had trouble with the anemometer. It seems to stop recording in very wet (100% humidity) weather. So I took this as an excuse to upgrade to a Vantage Pro2.
Now my dilemma...
It appears the new unit has all the measuring equipment in one bundle. That means I can't seperate my anemometer from my temp sensor location. If I place it on my roof, I'm pretty sure it will show too high of a reading off the roofing material. But the sweet spot for my temp readings blocks the good wind.
I know this is a pretty popular unit and would be open to any solutions w/regard to location.

Hi I was hoping to get some advice on buying my first dslr.
I am going to use it for a range of things but most of all probably taking photos of my son!
I have never used one before but I am a quick learner!
At the moment I use either a Panasonic DMC-TZ3 Lumix or Nikon Coolpix S200. (pretty standard!)
I like the panasonic but find the nikon very slow, when trying to take photos of my son he always moves before it actually captures him and struggles to take photos one after the other at a good pace!
thanks for your help

Christina's World
After Wyeth
Formulaic, her arms like sticks, she's everybody's
Though I can't like an object when I'm not painting
Rectitude. This lady invites me
Because she could be somebody else.
I don't really have studios. Women busy
With my work come alive. Mysterious
Places dream a lot though I find a clearing,
And dry grass isn't romantic. Her pink dress
And turned back don't give a damn about you
Just the small shed and tire tracks. A bad disease
Honestly picked the nagging dignity
Of this lady. Nothing foolish, glazed
With nostalgia, she's happy in a way
A girl posed for the body. So people look
Past maybe for a young man waiting, effective
As gray skies. Realism crawls to the house
On a hill, her weakness not clear, just the want,
American, lost marrow around people's attics
And farms, history, or my own conscience,
Life the only clue something isn't right.
—David Moolten
October 22, 2009 1:08 pm
Another fine poem, David!
I like the way you combined polyvocality into cut-up technique. Very effective. I particularly a moved by these lines:
…Realism crawls to the house
On a hill, her weakness not clear, just the want
And as you often to, you took me back in time. I remember puzzling, as a child, over this painting in an art book my unaesthetic father bought from a door-to-door salesman in a moment of weakness. Dad hated the painting, thought it was abusive, almost pornographic, in a non-sexual way. I was just puzzled, what is she doing out in the middle of nowhere? How did she get that far pulling herself along like that without being filthy head to foot? Mom's approach more compassion for the ills another must face. And so, my experience of the painting, growing up in an art-ignorant family, was also polyvocal. The way we experience much of our world.
Very nicely done, David.
October 22, 2009 4:24 pm
Admirable. The words/worlds blend seamlessly while offering abstract and definitive. Enjoyed this. Although I've never been a fan of Wyeth you've given me a new perspective.
October 22, 2009 11:11 pm
This is a well crafted work, David. It is a real reflection of the painting. Very neat and concise. The use of terms "arms like sticks" and "dry grass" have a grating edge. Your quest to find a mysterious place,romance or happiness just isn't fulfilled. Christina has her back turned. I really loved how you painted your words. Thank you.
October 22, 2009 11:50 pm
I thought your choice of subject to write on brilliant, and to me those last three lines are perfect.
rallentanda permalinkOctober 23, 2009 12:07 am
Thankyou for introducing me to this artist. Initially before I knew the history I thought Christina must have been the subject of domestic abuse .Something wasn't right about the painting,quite unsettling in fact.I'm alway amazed how an artist can convey mood and feeling through brushstrokes light and shade.I think this Wyeth is a wonderful painter.
'she's happy in a way.. a girl posed for the body' I like these surreal lines,
suggests Christina is alienated from herself
The ending of your poem says it all
'life the only clue something isn't right'
October 23, 2009 3:00 pm
Geez David…sooo good…."realism crawls to the house" shouts out to me. Wyeth is not my favourite….BUT i do like his prairie scenes for sure and the christina O painting is wonderful…nicely done…and i like what Mr. DH said how it was painted in tempera.. Im always impressed by your words.
October 23, 2009 11:24 pm
So many good lines in this, but I keep coming back to the very last one – very haunting given all that comes before.
