Nematode Destroying Fungi
Fig. 1. Nematode captured by the constricting rings of the predatory fungus Arthrobotrys anchonia. Note that the ring cells "cushion" around the body of the victim but have not yet constricted the body. This is a very early stage after capture. See below for explanation. Scanning Electron Micrograph N. Allin and G.L. Barron
The richness and variety of life in soil and debris is remarkable and a few grams of soil may contain microscopic life forms numbered in the millions. These include fungi and bacteria as major components and also large numbers of protozoans, tardigrades, rotifers, nematodes and other tiny things. Competition for nutrients and the close physical proximity amongst different groups of organisms in this environment has been conducive to the development of many predatory and parasitic associations.
The relationship between fungi and nematodes is not only one of the most fascinating but it has led us unexpectedly in a biological direction that is beginning to explain more clearly the complexities of wood decay and the CARBON CYCLE. You should understand right away that most introductory biology texts have a pretty poor version of the various biological components involved in the carbon cycle and the roles they play.
Fungi can capture nematodes in a variety of ways but the most sophisticated and perhaps the most dramatic is called the constricting ring. An erect branch from a hypha curves round and fuses with itself to form a three-celled ring about 20-30 microns in diameter (30/1000th mm). When a nematode "swims" into a ring it triggers a response in the fungus and the three cells expand rapidly inwards with such power that they constrict the body of the nematode victim and hold it securely with no chance to escape. It takes only 1/10 th of a second for the ring cells to inflate to their maximum size.
Remarkably, the constricting ring cells go to three times their volume with a two times increase in surface area of wall and membrane in the blink of an eye. At the same time the osmotic pressure (OP)of the cell is apparently maintained to the point where it can crush the nematode.
Transmission Electron Microscopy by others has shown that there is preformed reserve wall material and preformed reserve membrane material located at the inside wall of each ring cell. Others have also shown that you can "tickle" the inside walls of the ring with a needle and this mechanical stimulation can trigger the ring. It has also been also shown that the rings could be artificially triggered by heat stimulation (e.g. hot scalpel in the vicinity of the ring).
Our scanning electron microscopy studies, resulting in the picture shown above, showed that there is a rip in the outer wall of the ring cells, and that a new wall has expanded into the centre of the ring.
The above results suggested that there is a "hair trigger" line of weakness running along the inside wall of the constricting ring cells. When this is touched by a nematode or any other mechanical force the cell is triggered with the following sequence of events.
1. The line of weakness breaks.
2. The osmotic pressure of the cell results in a rapid intake of water over the surface of the cell.
3. The the cell expands in the direction of the break with a resulting 3X increase in cell volume.
4. The reserve wall and membrane materials are located at the point of the break and reorganize to form new wall and membrane.
5. The three times increase in volume of the ring cells must result in a three times decrease in osmotic pressure of the ring cells at the time of expansion.
6. The ring cells "cushion" around the body of the nematode and hold it fast but do not constrict it at that point in time.
7. There is a rapid conversion of reserve materials in the rings cells to allow the OP of the cell to recover. When the OP of the rings cells exceeds that of the nematode cells then the nematode wall will collapse and the body will be constricted.
8. In its struggles to escape the nematode will often put its tail into a second ring and be held imobile.
9. Once captured the rings cells will germinate and invasive hyphae penetrate into the living body of the nematode, grow throughout the body and digest the contents. This will be accomplished within 12-24 hours. The food gained from this will be translocated elsewhere for further growth and production of more traps or for producing the reproductive bodies of the fungus which in this case is called Arthrobotrys anchonia.

"Blood on their Hands" is probably one of the most successful slogans ever invented by
It further eliminates the need for any more profound enquiry. No one need ask why he committed such a barbaric deed or if his victim had done him any wrong. And it also eliminates any possibility of negotiations with him or with those in whose name he was acting (in our case the Hamas and other Palestinian groups). It is obvious that they came to kill us simply because we are Jews and because murdering people is in their genes. They are completely devoid of any human or humane values.
We have been told by Ehud Barak, a man whose hands have never been soiled by blood, that the Arabs are unable to distinguish between right and wrong because they do not come from the Judeo-Christian tradition. We were told by another prime minister, Menachem Begin, that the Palestinians are two-legged animals.
As a result, in all media discussions regarding the issue of prisoner exchange (the name given to negotiations over the return of the kidnapped soldier Gil'ad Shalit even though the Israelis do not recognize their captives as POWs), the words "blood on their hands" are repeated in almost every sentence. And in such an emotionally charged atmosphere there is little room for logic. (Nonetheless, it should be pointed out that the majority of Israelis still favor releasing those 450 prisoners in order to bring Shalit home.)
The blanket condemnation of people fighting for their independence as criminals has always been part of colonial strategy. Turning POWs into criminals with blood on their hands tells us more about the colonial character of
Colonial peoples fighting for their independence have always been accused of being cruel and murderous and thus labeled "terrorists." Their colonial rulers could not possibly acknowledge them as soldiers because if those people were soldiers fighting for their freedom, then what were they themselves? If they are labeled terrorists (and terrorists are surely not entitled to any rights) then "civilized European" soldiers have full permission to hunt them down like animals.
The blood-thirsty Mau Mau
A rather telling example of this practice, remembered perhaps by the older generation, is
The Kikuyu rebellion was rife with barbarism, including brutality against Kenyans who refused to join in the struggle. I remember the way the press (international and local Israeli) described the brutality of the Kikuyu in vivid detail. The mere mention of the name Mau Mau was enough to send chills up and down your spine. No one ever mentioned the reasons behind the uprising. No one ever mentioned the brutal subjugation of the natives by their British masters. Even today one can hardly believe the facts.
The prisoners were tortured and starved and some of the tortures were grotesque. They were attacked by dogs and forced to commit atrocities on themselves and their fellows. The British Secretary for the Colonies at the time, Alan Lennox-Boyd, described the torturers as a few "bad apples" (in
In terms of military power, the rebels were poorly armed against the might of the
In terms of victims, the figures are fairly representative of such colonial confrontations. The Mau Mau (the "brutal monsters") killed 32 white settlers and about 200 British soldiers and police during the period of the rebellion. The British hanged 1090 suspects and killed 15,000 others. They detained another 150,000 Kikuyus of whom some 100,000 (according to various sources) perished.
Fortunately or unfortunately, these figures don't tell the whole story because before they left
The end of this particular story is not limited to
No colonial regime can exist without disguising and/or justifying its actions. The British did it successfully over a long period of time. They demonized the freedom fighters in their colonies as monsters while glorifying themselves as rulers of high moral standards, interested only in bringing enlightment and progress to the wayward "natives." We, too, have been told time and again that the army of our "enlightened occupation" is "the most moral army in the world"
The Blood-thirsty Slaves of
In August 1831, while slavery was still the norm in the
The rebellion failed. Thousands of soldiers put down the small rebel army and Turner was captured and hanged. Following this, the army conducted a massacre, killing any slave who was even suspected of supporting the rebellion.
That same year the first issue of an abolitionist journal, The Liberator, was published by William Lloyd Garrison. He wrote:
On this subject I do not wish to think, or speak, or write, with moderation. No,no! Tell a man whose house is on fire, to give a moderate alarm; tell him to moderately rescue his wife from the hands of the ravisher; tell the mother to gradually extricate her babe from the fire into which it has fallen; but urge me not to use moderation in a cause like the present. I am in earnest – I will not equivocate – I will not excuse – I will not retreat a single inch – AND I WILL BE HEARD.
The main perpetrator of "blood on their hands" has always been the colonialist himself. There are many differences among the various colonialist-anti-colonialist struggles but they all share one characteristic: the demonization of the victim, of the people trying to break the chains restraining them. They are always depicted as murderers, their hands soaked in blood. They are always described as savage monsters, animals, or creatures that God is sorry he created (former Chief Rabbi Ovadia Yosef). Furthermore, as is well-known, they are completely irrational.
Colonialists, on the other hand, according to their own evaluation, are rationalist and considerate, working for the benefit of the native population. Their aims are noble and their empires have brought only progress and civilization to the backward peoples of the world.
During our recent incursion into the Gaza Strip, it was apparent to all that there was not a single drop of blood on our hands. The blood of 1330 Palestinian men, women and children, could be discerned, however, on the wings of our bombers, on the turrets of our tanks and on the barrels of our cannons.

roughing it retro style
BY terry tomalin (december 31, 2009)
In my family growing up, there were two types of people: those who slept in tents, and those who slept in trailers. We operated on a strict class system. Kids (peasants) stayed outside, while my parents (the royal couple) had exclusive rights to our family's small travel trailer. With one exception. If you were too young to walk, you got to sleep inside. So for a few weeks in the summer of 1961, they called me the Prince of Lake George. While my seven brothers and sisters suffered in squalor, I lived the life of luxury, or at least, that's how I imagine it. But of course, I have no idea. I was 8 months old and barely able to stand, let alone talk. So in the summer of 1962, I was banished to the tent with rest of my siblings, and that is where I stayed for the last 48 years. Until last week.
The silver palace
In the past eight decades, the company has only had five design changes. The last one came in 1996, when the manufacturer widened the trailer from 96 to 101 inches.
Most folks can identify an Airstream by sight. There is no mistaking the familiar silver "airplane fuselage on wheels" as it rolls down the highway. Roughly 100,000 have been built over the years, and 60 percent of those are still on the road.
"We always loved the way they looked," said Nikki Couture, who with her husband, Stephen, now rent vintage Airstreams for those who want a classic camping trip. "They are a real classic."
The Coutures bought a 1956 Airstream Safari for $3,500 then spent another $15,000 restoring it to its original glory. Their company, Silver Bullet Retreats, will deliver and set up an Airstream at one of several Tampa Bay area state parks for less than it would cost to stay in most hotels.
A land yacht
My kids are used to roughing it. From the time they were babies, I've had them camping all over Florida — but always in tents.
The Airstream, with its hardwood floors, canvas awning and khaki cloth curtains, made them feel like they were indeed on safari, though we were only in Oscar Scherer State Park near Venice.
"One rule," I explained. "Take your shoes off inside. I want this to last another 50 years."
The Airstream has a stove, refrigerator and electric lights. When the temperature dropped on one of the coldest nights of the year, they were toasty warm in bed. In the morning, I had to bribe them with hot chocolate to get out of bed.
After two nights in our land yacht, my kids did not want to go home. If there is a downside, I think it will difficult to coax them into a tent again now that they have had a taste of a vintage Airstream.

Nearly 200 growers, vintners, retailers, sommeliers and other tradespeople attended a workshop on biodynamic winemaking Dec. 2, prompting San Francisco Examiner wine blogger Annette Hanami to suggest the process is becoming mainstream.
"Ultimately, biodynamic wines are becoming mainstream because consumers demand it," the author wrote. "Biodynamic products are becoming less 'kooky' and more attractive than the scarier mass-produced alternatives."
UC Cooperative Extension teamed up with Demeter USA to offer the biodynamic program and UC farm advisors Glenn McGourty and Monica Cooper were presenters.
Biodynamic farming is a method of organic production that the involves the use of fermented herbal and mineral "preparations" as compost additives and field sprays, and the use of an astronomical sowing and planting calendar.
With stores like Walmart now selling organic produce and products made with organic ingredients, being "sustainable" and "green" are no longer enough to distinguish a producer in a competitive global market, Hamini wrote.
Currently, there are 75 California wine producers who are certified biodynamic or in transition; the growth rate is 15 percent per year.
UC Cooperative Extension involvement in a biodynamic farming workshop Dec. 2 in Napa has been met with criticism from a local vintner who believes the farming system is a hoax, according to a story in the Napa Valley Register.
The article said Stu Smith, the co-owner of Smith-Madrone Vineyards and Winery, is "shocked and outraged" that UC Cooperative Extension is co-sponsoring a "Shortcourse in Biodynamic Winegrowing."
Smith, who earned a master's degree in enology and viticulture at UC Davis, said that UCCE should participate only if it's a balanced and comparative event.
Napa County farm advisor Monica Cooper and Mendocino County farm advisor Glenn McGourty, who are slated to speak at the workshop, disagree.
Cooper said she will discuss scientifically validated IPM techniques, and has no control over what other presenters say.
"It is our responsibility as UC farm advisors to represent the scientific community at a variety of venues, and to ensure that we are presenting information on scientifically validated processes," Cooper was quoted.
McGourty has conducted some research on biodynamic farming practices. Writer Paul Franson reported that, according to McGourty, such farming systems "are well documented to improve soil quality, grow productive crops, reduce the need for petrochemical inputs, recycle farm byproducts in a safe and effective way, and provide a gentler footprint on nature compared to some practices used by conventional growers."
Franson also quoted assistant director of UC Ag and Natural Resources News and Information Outreach Pam Kan-Rice.
"The University of California doesn't 'promote' any particular way of farming, it supports sustainable farming systems," Kan-Rice was quoted.
After a hard life - which included multiple divorces, alcoholism, drug addiction, the loss of a young son and bankruptcy - specialty fertilizer producer Denise Ritchie is now finding gratification by rescuing dairy cows before slaughter and using manure to create biodynamic compost.
Ritchie's story was featured this week in a Los Angeles Times Column One article by Martha Groves. She and her husband Randy purchased a dairy cow at auction last August. The animal was christened Bu, ensconced at a friend's organic dairy farm near Fresno, and became the namesake for the Ritchies' "Bu's Blend Biodynamic Compost."
According to the Times article, Ritchie stumbled upon and was inspired by the biodynamic process, which mixes organic principles with cosmic spirituality. The Ritichies believe their compost emanates "energetic life forces to vitalize vegetables, plants, flowers, lawns, gardens, farms and our earth," according to their website. While much of mainstream agriculture is unconvinced about the value of biodynamic tenents, UC Cooperative Extension farm advisor Glenn McGourty sees their value.
"There are lessons for all of agriculture in some of the basic agronomy that biodynamic farmers practice," McGourty was quoted in the story.
Bu's Blend is sold in about 50 California nurseries, running about $20 for a 1.5 cubic foot bag, easily double the cost of other organic composts.
"You're healing your soil with this stuff," the story quoted Sarah Spitz, a KCRW producer and a graduate of the Los Angeles County UC Cooperative Extension Master Gardener program.The LA Times story says the Master Gardener became a customer of the fertilizer after studying various approaches to gardening and concluding that biodynamics "was the purest, healthiest and cleanest system." Every seed she has planted using Bu's Blend, she told Groves, has sprouted and grown "big and beautiful."
One of the reasons McGourty applied for the position, he explained in his written application, was because UC President Mark Yudof encouraged all UC faculty to reach out to K-12 education, "as the future depends on quality public schools in the state."
McGourty was also asked in the application about his knowledge of the Governor's budget and its impact to education.
"The present budget is abysmal," he responded. "We spend more on prisons than the combined budget of UC, CSU, and community college systems. Too many prisoners are high school drop outs. We cannot afford to have so many people outside of our economic mainstream. We need to have a school system that helps students who learn differently, are differently enabled and not simply focus on delivering a literal arts education for college-bound students. The immediate concern is that a challenging budget will negate many of the positive gains for K-12 education that were made in the previous two decades, such s classroom size reduction, tech education and electives that make school more appealing and interesting to students."
One of the topics of McGourty's research in his role with UCCE is biodynamic agricultural production, which was the focus of a ANR feature story.
Biodynamic farming is similar to organic production. As on organic farms, no synthetic pesticides or fertilizers are used. The farm is viewed as its own ecosystem and typically supports a diverse mix of crops and livestock, which are considered complimentary. Biodynamic farmers use unique preparations and compost. Planting, cultural operations and harvesting are guided by celestial events.
"Some people scoff or roll their eyes," McGourty said. "I am interested in looking objectively at what a group of dedicated farmers take very, very seriously. More importantly, they are getting some very good results in their winegrapes and wines."

I remember some posters wanted Singleton over Leonard. He's not a bad pickup for the cheap, especially if he can reclaim some of that potential.

You don't understand because you don't have any idea of what is going on behind the scenes, beyond what is being reported publicly, or what tptb are discussing with each other. Just because something isn't posted to twitter, an article, or by a reporter does not mean it is not taking place. So you don't need to shrug your head.

Kim and Kinsy: "President Obama represents the middle class"
Kim and Kinsy, a mother and daughter from Ohio, were in the audience today when President Obama visited Mansfield Central Park to lay out a few key differences between his tax plan and Mitt Romney's, which would raise taxes for working Americans.
"President Obama represents the middle class, and he wants people to work together," said Kim, a teacher. "I don't mind paying taxes because I do want social services, but everyone should pay their fair share."
"I work two jobs and it's hard to pay bills as it is," added Kinsy, a nurse. "Mitt Romney's plan sounds unfair."
Kim agreed:
"I think Mitt Romney's plan is ridiculous. Middle-class people are the ones working to provide all the services. As the President said, they're the ones who should get a tax cut, not the wealthiest Americans."

JACKSON, Mississippi — In recent years, Republicans' efforts to take over the United States Senate have been thwarted at least in part by the ultra-conservative wing of the party – i.e., the Tea Party.
In Nevada, Delaware, Missouri, Indiana, Alaska, to name a few, the Republicans have lost what at one time were considered likely victories by nominating candidates the general election voters viewed as too conservative, out of the mainstream.
PPP, a national polling firm that is viewed as having allegiances to the Democratic Party, recently polled the 2014 Senate race here in Mississippi.
The poll revealed that in Mississippi – viewed as a safe Republican seat in national and most state elections – at this point in time a Democratic candidate would be competitive with state Sen. Chris McDaniel, R-Ellisville, who is the only candidate yet to announce he is seeking the seat in 2014.
McDaniel, who can be seen statewide in television commercials being paid for by national Tea Party-related political action committees, leads by slight margins two big-name Democrats – former Gov. Ronnie Musgrove and former U.S. Rep. Travis Childers of Booneville. He trails by a slight margin current Attorney General Jim Hood – Mississippi's only statewide elected Democrat.
In all three instances, the races are statistically dead heats, meaning the results are within the poll's margin of error.
It would be interesting to see how Northern District Public Service Commissioner Brandon Presley would have fared in the poll.
Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann, a possible candidate for the Senate seat, polls better than McDaniel against the three Democrats – though there is only a one-point difference in a head-to-head with Hood.
PPP polled 502 Mississippi voters, "including an over sample of 422 Republican voters," making the strong showing of the Democrats mentioned in the poll even more surprising.
Of course, the question is whether six-term incumbent Thad Cochran will run again. The veteran Republican has said he will announce a decision this month.
The poll indicates that Cochran is vulnerable. He leads McDaniel by only 6 percentage points and 55 percent say they would prefer a candidate more conservative.
At this point, the smart money might be on Cochran not running. Normally, if a politician plans to seek re-election, that person does not give any potential challenger an opening by wavering.
If Cochran does run, none of the aforementioned Democrats will enter the race, though, surprisingly, according to the poll, Hood would be competitive against the incumbent.
But still, regardless of the poll, it is difficult for daily observers of the Mississippi political scene to imagine a scenario where a Democrat could defeat Cochran in the general election.
If Cochran does not run, though, look for big-name Republicans and at least one Democrat to enter the race.
The PPP poll shows McDaniel, who has received a great deal of statewide attention since his announcement, with a slight lead in a crowded Republican field, which might include U.S. Reps. Greg Harper and Steven Palazzo, Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, Auditor Stacey Pickering and Hosemann.
Interestingly, Reeves polls at the bottom of the Republican field with only 3 percent support.
But the interesting proposition for state Democrats, who have been beaten up and are at a low ebb, is whether a candidate could emerge from the Republican primary that even by Mississippi standards might be viewed as too conservative.
That has happened in other states, costing Republicans a chance to garner a Republican Senate majority
Many might argue that the general electorate is much more conservative in Mississippi, meaning that a candidate who is too conservative, say in Indiana, would not be in Mississippi.
Is that correct?
We might see next November.

The Need For Fair Trade Certified Chocolate: A Brief History
Guest Blogger: Christopher Angell of Angell Organic Candy Bars, San Diego, CA
Guest blogger Christopher Angell, of Angell Organic Candy Bars, shares his research about the chocolate industry and explains why purchasing products made with Fair Trade Certified™ chocolate is so important for farmers, consumers and the earth.
When I'm in stores doing demos or at events where interacting with customers, people often remark on all of the seals and logos on our packaging and literature. And it's true, when you compare food packaging today with that of 10 years ago there's a noticeable proliferation of product claims and third-party certifications. In a perfect world, we wouldn't need these certifications because we would be able to count on companies to be transparent about their sourcing and manufacturing processes, and trust them to make responsible decisions. In a perfect world, governments would apply consistent regulations to protect our natural resources, and would work to protect the human rights of the workers and farmers who harvest these resources. Sadly, as we have learned in our research on the history of the chocolate industry, both governments and the industry have disappointing records in these regards.
There have been labor issues on cocoa farms for as long as chocolate has existed in Western culture, including everything from coercive employment arrangements and dangerous working conditions, to outright slavery and child trafficking. Periodically, a particularly zealous journalist or activist will succeed in bringing these issues to the public eye with enough momentum that the large chocolate companies are forced to respond. Unfortunately, their responses tend to do more for their public image than they do to address the underlying problems.
In the late 1800's and early 1900's, the English press began publishing articles exposing slavery on the cocoa farms which supplied the bulk of the country's chocolate manufacturers. Ultimately, this led most of those manufacturers to boycott the farms specifically referenced in the media, (though it took over 2 decades for them to do so).
In 2001, a series of articles were published in the United States by Sudarsan Raghavan, Sumana Chaterjee, and the Knight Ridder news agency. They included numerous interviews with victims of child trafficking, that again brought the issue of forced labor in cocoa production to the public's attention.
Horrified by what he read, United States Congressman Eliot Engel decided to take on the issue. He eventually joined forces with Senator Tom Harkin to enact a "slave-free" label for chocolate modeled after the "dolphin safe" tuna campaign, which had been successfully implemented not long before. Despite the fact that the United States has had laws against importing goods produced using slave labor, there was resistance to the proposal by the cocoa industry. With the help of high-powered lobbyists (including Bob Dole), the mandatory labeling proposal was watered down to a voluntary system. Under this sytem chocolate producers pledged that by July 1, 2005, they would use "credible, mutually-acceptable, voluntary, industry-wide standards of public certification consistent with applicable federal law, that ensure cocoa beans and their derivative products have been produced without the worst forms of child labor." Over 6 years after that deadline, little, if any progress has been made.
It is widely agreed that the simplest solution to the labor problems in the cocoa industry is to ensure that farmers make enough money to pay their workers a decent wage. Cocoa farming is hard work, and most farmers can barely make ends meet. Fair Trade Certified™ cocoa comes from farms where workers are paid a price for their crop that allows them to pay their workers fairly, and ensures that children in those communities are able to go to school. Inspections make sure that there is no forced labor on these farms.

Christopher Angell is the co-founder of Angell Organic Candy Bars in San Diego, California. Angell Organic Candy Bars draw on the rich tradition of American candy bars, while carefully examining every step of production with an eye towards implementing more ethical, responsible practices. Designed to be a candy bar without compromise, Angell Bars are made using the highest quality, certified organic ingredients and premium organic and Fair Trade chocolates.

Does Prilosec Decrease the Calcium in the Body?
My mom has severe osteoporosis and taking Actonel for that condition. However, she also takes Prilosec for acid reflux. She read somewhere that prilosec takes out calcium from your body and increases the risk of fractures, which she has had many so she wants to quit taking the prilosec. Is this true and should she do something more to supplement the calcium? I fear the acid reflux will do more harm.
Your mother should check with her physician to see if she needs to take Prilosec every day. Some people just take it when they are experiencing symptoms of reflux.

SANTA CRUZ - Three men facing a murder charge in connection with the shooting of a man on the Freedom Boulevard overpass in May pleaded not guilty Monday morning.
Alfredo Alanis Garcia, 21, of Prunedale; Christopher Herrera Bermudez, 20, of Las Lomas; and Rafael Zamora Barron, 20, of Watsonville are being held in County Jail. The District Attorney's Office has charged them with first-degree murder for the death of Fernando Mendoza-Avila. The 21-year-old Live Oak resident was shot as he and a friend walked on Freedom Boulevard in the Aptos-area around 6 p.m. on May 30. The two were walking from a family gathering in the area, according to the Sheriff's Office.
As a gray four-door Honda en route to Watsonville drove past Mendoza-Avila and his friend, multiple shots were fired from the car. Mendoza-Avila was killed. His friend, whose name hasn't been released, was uninjured.
Garcia, who deputies said was driving the car, was arrested just hours after the shooting. Bermudez and Barron were arrested two days later at a home off Airport Boulevard.
The three are due back in court July 31 to set a date for their preliminary hearing, which is held to determine if there is sufficient evidence to hold them to the charges.

So how many actually do CG now?
I am curious. It seems like less people do it here on the board than it used to be. I might be wrong.
Other -- I use shampoo w/gentle sulfates once/week, mostly on the scalp. I rinse or condition-wash in between. I usually don't use cones but don't avoid them like the plague if they aren't bad ones. :) I don't use any of the CG concoctions as they strip my color. I guess I use some CG ideas, but I really already had this routine before CG came around.
Other, I call myself modified cg usually but it's similar to the other posters above. I guess what's similar to cg is I don't use the sulfate-containing shampoo more than about once or twice a week. I've also been trying to avoid cyclo -ane (you know the cone) and other non-water soluble cones. I haven't decided yet if these modifications will work for me long term.
What about you, Kurlee? :)
Yeah, I would call myself "modified" in that I, like lazykerri, avoid cyclopentasiloxane like the plague, conditioner wash most of the week, and poo with a sulfate-containing poo roughly once a week.
I'm also really hyper-aware of ingreds in a CG-aware kind of way, but you already knew that. :wink:
i voted no CG.
i use a sulfate shampoo when i need it on my roots/scalp. while i do only use one conditioner and a little set it free to style my hair, i probably wouldn't be afraid to try new styling products with cones or whatever. i'm pretty much at the point where i go with what works!
but for now? my occasional wash with baby shampoo, conditioner and SIF is still working famously, so i'll stick with those.
My modified is sometimes sulfates, never any silicones (the opp. of the above modified choice.) Once a month I use Kelate shampoo to get rid of any hard water deposits and any residue. I have been using Suave tropical coconut condish to wash but the last few days I've been co washing with One condish and rinsing it all out since i just got B'Leave in.
no CG for me, although my HG products are CG friendly, go figure!
pretty much the same as most above. wash with low-poo, a couple of times a week, co wash with no-poo, use deva products (but other than that don't like products with cones), use a sulfate containing pooo periodically for hard water build-up.
No shampoo ever(don't seem to need it) but I could not live without creamy stylers, something Lorraine advises against.
I do co washes inbetween. I do avoid the bad cones like the plagues too but use the ones that can be removed easily by milder cleansers.
Use Sapp Moss, One Condition and RedKen Ringlet right now.
And to me this is kinda non CG. :wink:
I go between this and modified CG.
I'm thinking I'm a "modified CG-er". I CO mostly, but I used lots of conditioner because my hair likes it. I use a conditioner with a cone maybe a couple times per month, more to use up something I tried rather than because I really like what it does to my hair.
I am back to Conditioner wash only for the winter. Even though it is not very cold here this year.
Last summer I used a mild Sulphate free shampoo once a week.
I also use mousse which LM is against.
It simplifies my winterroutine as I only need a light washing conditioner, a heavier one for conditioning and the mousse as a styler.
Modified CG here, although I don't follow the routine for wavies to the letter. I wash with a shampoo bar once or twice a week, and CO wash on other days. I also incorporate ayurvedic herbs and henna into my routine, and use -cones in moderation (mainly amodimethicone).
I now shampoo (Cream of Nature or CHS) once a month b/c I am too lazy to do ACV rinse and to make sure I have no build up. I still try to only use cone-free products.
Still full CG. Still works for me.

Pledge to #MakeBeautyHappen
Who needs beauty? As it turns out, we all do. Recent biophilic design research confirms that people are more productive, learn better, heal faster, and have lower stress levels in spaces embodying the principles of biophilic design.
We're committed to #MakeBeautyHappen and you can join us by taking the pledge via the image above. You can also watch videos, view imagery and sign up to receive our newsletter, which features up to date information about products, projects and more, including insights from other influential architects and designers.
Can a building be green without beauty?
By definition, a green, high-performance building should have measurable, positive impacts on its occupants' well being, and biophilic design gives designers an approach that can reliably produce these benefits. Terrapin Bright Green has developed both a business case, The Economics of Biophilia, and a guide, 14 Patterns of Biophilic Design, defining the aspects of biophilic design.
We believe that beautiful, biophilic spaces can help bring out the kind of compassionate, creative thinking needed to solve the world's biggest problems. We call this kind of creativity "beautiful thinking," and we believe it holds the key to unlocking the next wave of social and environmental innovation.
Google believes this too and has successfully invested in "biophilic design interventions" in their global facilities and measured impacts on wellness, creativity and innovation.
Learn about our evolution of beautiful thinking and pledge with us to #MakeBeautyHappen.

Wendell Berry ? has a character who writes in a letter that he has trouble keeping what he wants to say inside of what he can spell. Touching reminder that basics count, and are difficult. I grew up next driveway from a neighbor whose handmade sign shouted "No tresspassing." (I never scored with his daughter, Rapunzel). Local mis-typing: a neighbor, in honorable apology, wrote himself as "aquatinted" with some offended folk. Likely so, though I bet he damned his errant fingers when he read what he had typed & e-mailed. This Easter season he recalls to me that Man of Sorrow, acquainted with grief. I suppose we're all at least aquatinted with our own versions of that grief. As She says, the default position must be compassion. -- Peace.
Spring, Week Four ? redbud's in glorious bloom up here along what Hesh Kaplan named Redbud Alley. The Unmarked Water Tanker has returned from wherever it winters, as has the Dredlocked Tender, conspicuous on SR 20 & on 101 interchanges. Can the Turkey Oven Bag be far behind?
Car Tok ? two beautiful black coupes, sighted once & twice on North State: 1935 Ford and possibly a 1941 Buick. Found the girl some time ago. Still looking for the car.
I Bet ? many of you know or remember Neil Phillip Anderson & Rita Lowitt who in July, 1982, had something to do with that fading, amphitheatrical, fool-the-eye mural on the west side of the Dragon's Lair. Eye candy! Dunne Quality Paint supplied them. Ars longis, vita brevis.

Pounding Pavement
My relationship with running from loathing to my first marathon
Watching a child with a higher-than-optimal Body Mass Index stumble off the track in exhaustion gave me a sense of hope. I could join him. Maybe we'd become friends and make finger paintings together. In the interest of potential friendship, I further reduced my already Eeyore-worthy pace to a zombie-like shuffle. Eyes fixed on the sweet release of a run-well-quit, I sauntered across two lanes towards the outside of the track. Who was I, a fifth grader, to be running an 800 meter race anyhow? Before a single foot could escape the recycled rubber death-loop, an event coordinator blocked my route shouting encouragement that ranged from marginally-motivating to nearly insensitive. I would have to finish after all. With each step, I laboriously sucked in a sweet mix of sweat, car exhaust, and dying leaves. As the finish line neared, each clap from the crowd of coats and mittens felt less genuine and more of a plea to let them return home in time to watch LOST. My mom says I cried. I probably did. I was young, television was strange, finger painting had gone out of style, and plump kids received special treatment from race officials.
And so began my relationship with running.
Before I ever set foot on a track, my mind wandered around a religiously affiliated school. That particular stage of my formative years consisted of a healthy dose of lego bricks, bibles, and hot lunch. Later, after transferring to public school, I experienced a major shift in the form of cold lunch, evolution, and cursing. Kids swear–a lot. In my experience up to that point, the only thing scarier than Satan himself were the words he reportedly used while defecating. Over the years I grew accustomed to the vocabulary of my peers, but out of principle never joined them–that is, until one fateful day.
Jogging around the same track I had wanted to flee from just five years earlier, I now had purpose. My soccer coach had ordered the team to run eight laps around the track. While I appreciated the necessity of fitness in the beautiful game, my thighs made a strong counter argument. With labored breathing, I finished the eighth lap. That's when things got real.
"Okay, now you will run as many laps as you can in the next twelve minutes."
The coach added an additional twelve minutes of running. If a lion were to have sprung out of the pine-filled woods near the track and picked me for a delightfully pale snack, I wouldn't have fought–I would have welcomed the mauling. Alas, no such ferocious feline appeared and I trudged on. As I rounded a corner, my mind reached its filtering capacity. I turned to a teammate and spouted words that cracked my filter forever. Now, I don't necessarily endorse its use, but I have yet to find a more satisfying use of the F word in my entire life.
In theory, I should have found success in running. I had the perfect build–what my friends affectionately described as "tall, awkward, and lanky." I simply never considered running worthwhile.
Then, things changed. Amidst the carols, presents, and lights of the holiday season, a pair of high school friends proposed that we run a marathon. After considering this proposal from the same friends who had consumed eight-patty burgers from Wendy's just months earlier, I made a decision. My answer was a very articulate "What the hell? Let's do it."
The motivation stemming from my certain doom carried me for weeks. I trained, slowly losing "excess holiday cheer" and racking up the mileage necessary to complete the race.
The training continued, off and on, up to the point that my college schedule allowed. By the time my freshman year of college ended, I had completed a half-marathon. Arriving home for the summer, my training lagged. I never eclipsed 13.1 miles. Instead I sporadically ran for random distances when I had motivation. The marathon loomed. With only days left, the lack of consistent training began to frighten me.
At 4:30 a.m. on June 22, 2013 I picked myself off of a friend's floor to the sound of an irritatingly-cheery alarm. The bags under my eyes rivaled the size of my race-issued sweat bag. More alarms blared as co-runners forced themselves awake. With little more than grunts, we overloaded a friend's trusty–just not when it needs to start–Subaru.
After a brief car ride, bus shuttle, and shamble to the start line, reality set in swiftly.
I wish I could share details about the race itself. To be honest, however, it was as exciting as a bunch of people's feet colliding with pavement for a long time through fog and rain can be: monotonous. Yes, I met interesting people, encouraged others, and ate my mile-17 banana with zealous. What matters most, though, is the fact that I finished a 26.2 mile race never having ran more than half that distance. Willpower, friends, and resolve carried me the final few miles. I ran a marathon.
My mother, who vividly remembers my failed attempt at quitting the 800 meter race in fifth grade, tried to reason with me the night before the marathon. She told me I didn't "have to do it" and that I didn't "have to finish."
"Yes I do" I replied. I did.

Next generation of Morshead racing dynasty on his mark
11:22am Thursday 29th May 2014
11:22am Thursday 29th May 2014
A TEENAGER with a famous North Yorkshire racing pedigree is set to make his debut - rain permitting - at Wetherby this evening.
Henry Morshead is the son of Anthea Morshead, assistant clerk of the course at York and former crack amateur rider, and the grandson of former Brandsby trainer Peter Beaumont, who sent out Jodami to win the Cheltenham Gold Cup.
Morshead, whose father Sam, clerk of the course at Perth, was a successful jump jockey, has the racing genes in his blood and, the 17-year-old, who is a pupil at Cheltenham College, is clearly intent on pursuing a riding career.
This evening, after a few mounts in point-to-points, he has his first ride under National Hunt Rule. He partners Locked Inthepocket, trained by his mother, in the Wetherby Racecourse Open Hunters' Chase. The ten-year-old was recently runner-up in a point-to-point, which confirmed his well-being.
He will, however, need to raise his game considerably if he is to lower the colours of Oscar Time, the mount of Sam Waley-Cohen, pictured, and a horse who was good enough to finish fourth to Auroras Encore in last year's Grand National.
Now a 13-year-old, Oscar Time is past his best, but he remains a force to be reckoned with at this level as he proved when winning easily last time out at Uttoxeter. The chances are he will follow up tonight, but fingers are crossed that Morshead can enjoy a good spin on Locked Inthepocket.
Izzini, who makes the journey across the Irish Sea from Stuart Crawford's successful yard, will be hard to beat in the opening Mini Cooper York Mares' Novices' Hurdle.
The six-year-old has been beaten only once in five career outings and was a nine-length winner on her hurdling bow at Sedgefield a fortnight ago. She can score again.
David Pipe and Tom Scudamore can lift the Happy 10th Birthday Racing UK Novices' Chase with Broadway Buffalo.
A 135-rated hurdler and a winner at Haydock earlier in the month, he looks the type to make an impact over fences.
Also worth noting at Wetherby are Allanard (7.00), who ran a fine race in defeat at Kelso last time, and Barton Stacey (8.05), another Pipe raider, who had 11 lengths to spare at Stratford last time.
Sandown's high-class evening meeting on the Flat features North Yorkshire hope Top Notch Tonto, who contest the Group 3 Cantor Fitzgerald Brigadier Gerard Stakes.
Brian Ellison's gelding, who made massive strides last season, will have conditions in his favour as a mud-lover on the forecast heavy ground. He has run creditably here and at Newbury this season and, provided he copes with this step up to ten furlongs for the first time, which is likely, he can make a bold bid. He is awarded the nap vote.
York regulars may be keen on the chances of Tiger Cliff in the Cantor Fitzgerald Henry ll Stakes. Winner of the Ebor Handicap, he ran a fine race earlier this month when a close-up third to Gospel Choir in the Yorkshire Cup on Knavesmire. That level of form puts him in with sound claims here.
Course and distance winner Chain Of Events (6.10) and the speedy Cajoling (6.40), who won well at Windsor earlier this month, are two others to note.
Wetherby today
6.00 Izzini, 6.30 Broadway Buffalo, 7.00 Bespoke Lady, 7.35 Allanard, 8.05 Barton Stacey, 8.35 Playhara, 9.05 Oscar Time.
Sandown today
6.10 Chain Of Events, 6.40 Cajoling, 7.15 Tiger Cliff, 7.50 Top Notch Tonto (NAP), 8.20 Patentar, 8.50 Abseil.
Today's other meetings
Bath, Haydock and Worcester.
Tomorrow's meetings
Brighton, Catterick, Haydock, Newcastle, Newmarket and Stratford.

Compare the best resume writing services for legal admin professionals
We thank you for stopping by our web site and reviewing this free sample resume.
These days, more and more job seekers are competing for jobs in the field of legal administration. Employers are now receiving hundreds, if not thousands, of resumes with every job they post. To get the job you want, your documents will have to be extremely powerful in order to compete with all those other resumes.
It's incredibly easy to surf several resume web sites and lift text from legal assistant resume samples, but it will only hurt you in the long run. Copying and pasting an existing sample resume will never really serve your purpose. Clearly, this is a very popular resume example if you were able to quickly find this great sample resume in an online search. If you don't already know, search engines list resume examples that get the most traffic on the top for popular search requests. Logically, if you think it's a good idea to copy from this popular resume example, then so do many of your competitors. Employers see these generic resume examples, templates, text, and formats every day, and are extremely familiar with them.
Resume examples are the best way to review and judge resume writing talents. Sample resumes will show you if the resume writing service you are considering knows their way around the legal administration industry. Do the resume development specialists know what keywords tend to be scanned when screening legal assistant resumes? Did the resume writer develop a convincing document with a clear objective? Do they stick to dull templates or do they demonstrate originality and passion in their formats? Did they showcase quality legal administration cover letter examples? If not, did they demonstrate exceptional cover letter writing for other industries?
If you are a highly skilled legal assistant, and you plan on drafting your own resume to be effective in a aggressive job market, then try not to work with resume examples. If you truly have to copy popular concepts and content, then try to work from as many resume examples as possible. Then rewrite the text as needed to make it truly unique. You should do whatever it takes to avoid getting caught using familiar phrases from an industry-known resume sample, as HR Reps hate to see this. And you need to add your own special (yet tasteful) touches to the resume format to ensure that your document is impressive and distinctive. Otherwise, just use legal assistant resume examples as a great way to compare resume writing services. If you do find a writer service that claims to have advanced expertise in drafting legal assistant resumes, then you need to do your due diligence.
Examine the web site and see if the service offers industry-specific insight and tips for legal assistants. Did they pepper in strong, law-focused keywords? What other tips do they offer to legal administration professionals? How good are they at developing cover letters? Do they abandon all creativity and just stick to cover letter templates? Are their "expert" resume writers even certified? Were the writers who developed the resume examples credentialed through a respected organization? Do the writers have a lot of experience in offering help to legal assistants? Is the writer anywhere near as objective and critical of their own writing as law offices? Do the writers have creative integrity, avoid templates, and showcase examples that are built to win in the highly competitive field of legal administration? If the resume service gives practical details on their web site, as well as impressive legal assistant resume examples, then give them a call.
Notable Keywords: legal assistant resume examples, legal assistant cover letter examples, sample resume for legal administration professionals, examples of legal assistant resumes, sample for a legal assistant, examples of legal assistant resumes, great application examples for legal administrators and legal assistants, CV examples, curricula vitae examples for law office professionals, curriculum vitae, legal assistant CVs.

I am somewhat dissappointed. I somewhat felt this Manga was a little unrealistic in areas, as in Students having power over Teachers when it came to school (seriously would never happen in RL), but I was fine to let that go and see how things play.
But with the introduction of a real ghost?. What next, a vampire? warewolf ?. Cant really explain it well but... I get the feeling the author has run out of ideas and played the paranormal card. Didnt expect it to turn into fantasy/supernatural. Buuuuut, I guess its was never going to live up being like GTO in the first place. Maybe thats what I was hoping

The ghost thing, on its own, wasn't so bad. What was weird was how easily Kagami's students accept the fact that, yes, their school is haunted and, yes, they're actually seeing and speaking to a ghost girl.

Eh... that arc felt completely unnecessary to me. There was no supernatural elements before, so I don't see why there had to be now. If they had to make a small arc about a girl that comes and goes, they could have made her identity as a ghost more ambiguous. Show her as being ghostlike, being the cause of noise in the library, but don't outright tell us she's a ghost. Leave some room for interpretation, like enough for some people to guess that she's just a normal solitary student, but enough for people to think she can be a ghost.

What the? This arc is so damn short, random, and feels very forced. That ghost girl came out of nowhere, got some help in order to enter afterlife and went without sound, but came back again as if nothing happened. I wonder if the author got writer block or something.

Product Details
Perrin Adjustable Front 22mm Sway Bar - Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ 2013+
Take your vehicles handling to the next level with PERRIN Performance sway bars. Upgrading your sway bar is the easiest way to improve vehicle handing. Sway bars increase roll resistance and modify vehicle balance. In general, adding a larger rear sway bar increases over steer, and adding a larger front sway bar increases under steer. Upgrade both front and rear sway bars to reduce body roll and tune vehicle balance to your preference.
19mm or 22mm
PERRIN Performance sway bars come in two different sizes. 19mm and 22mm. Driving enthusiast will enjoy the feel of a 19mm bar while true racers will like the rigidity of the 22mm. For a noticeable upgrade in stiffness while keeping close to OEM balance, combine our 19mm Front Sway Bar with our 16mm rear sway bar. For a more aggressive upgrade try the 22mm front sway bar matched with the 19mm rear sway bar.
PERRIN Performance sway bars incorporate multiple end link mounting holes which allow the installer to custom tailor your driving experience. This PERRIN sway bar increase stiffness by a minimum of 25% overstock. Adjusting the end link mounting position on this sway bar can increase that stiffness to as much at 218% over stock.
Centering Rings
PERRIN Performance sway bars feature centering rings that prevent sway bar movement in hard cornering. This keeps your sway bar centered and ready for the next corner.
PERRIN sway bars are CNC precision bent from solid 4130 chromoly steel. The entire bar is heavily powder coated to fight corrosion and give it a great red finish. We laser cut and MIG weld our bar ends for precise placement and superior strength. This type of bar end will never fail and offer you a lifetime of superior handling.
All PERRIN sway bars include custom polyurethane bushings for a crisp response and better turn in. Special spiral cut pockets carved into the bushing surface extends the interval between re-greasing.

text: SYSTEM DIVIDE, the extreme modern metal act featuring Sven De Caluwé (ABORTED) and Miri Milman (ex-DISTORTED) on vocals, Cole Martinez (ex-YEARS OF FIRE, ANTENORA) and Joseph Spiller (ex-THE BINARY CODE) on guitars, Andrew Lenthe (ANTENORA) on bass, and Mike Heller (MALIGNANCY) on drums, has completed work on its full-length debut, "The Conscious Sedation", for a tentative late 2010 release via Metal Blade Records. The CD was recorded at Conquistador studios in Cleveland, Ohio and was mixed and mastered by James Murphy (OBITUARY, TESTAMENT, DEATH).Commented the band: "Expect the album to have 11-12 tunes of heavy extreme metal madness with blazing guitar leads, crazy kick patterns, blasts, grooves and melodies along with our own brand of extreme and clean vocals." SYSTEM DIVIDE has already completed a video for the song "The Apex Doctrine" off the band's current EP, which will also be on the band's full-length debut. Check out a trailer for the new video below and be sure to head over to SYSTEM DIVIDE's MySpace page to listen to the tracks "The Apex Doctrine" and "(n)Ether". SYSTEM DIVIDE's "The Collapse" EP was produced and engineered by guitarist Cole Martinez and was mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen. "The Apex Doctrine" video was filmed in New York with director Kevin Custer (HATEBREED, TESTAMENT, DYING FETUS, SUFFOCATION). According to a press release, SYSTEM DIVIDE "unites a myriad of sounds, going from STRAPPING YOUNG LAD, SOILWORK, LACUNA COIL, DIMMU BORGIR, CHIMAIRA to even MORBID ANGEL. Prepare for the unexpected!" Founded in summer 2008, SYSTEM DIVIDE set out to revolutionize the conventions of the over-saturated melodic death metal genre, proving that extreme metal can have more depth than blast beats, while female vocals do not have to conform to the precepts of the "goth" genre. In mixing many styles, "The Collapse" breaks all the rules of extreme metal and is a landmark release for the young band. As opposed to interjecting simple, predictable clean choruses into contrived song structures, SYSTEM DIVIDE unites serene female vocals and extreme vocals driven by lyrical themes that confront and seek to break everyday themes of disillusionment, societal materialism, and individual apathy. Musically, the band delivers myriad styles of riffing and grooves, while augmenting the entrancing soundscapes with hard-hitting drums and intricate bass lines. These elements together define the unique, spell binding, hypnotic sound of SYSTEM DIVIDE. SYSTEM DIVIDE will make its live debut on July 21 at the Summer Carnage Fest in Israel alongside ABORTED, WHORECORE, THE FADING, PHANTOM PAIN and many other bands.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have released quarterback Josh Freeman, the team has confirmed.
"We made the decision today to release Josh Freeman. We appreciate his efforts over the past five seasons, but we felt this was in the best interests of both Josh and the Buccaneers," said general manager Mark Dominik in a statement from the team.
Dominik had worked furiously over the last few days to try to trade Freeman, but instead the team will be forced to pay his $6.2 million salary.
Freeman's release comes eight days after it was announced that he had been demoted as starting quarterback. Last Thursday he gave an unauthorized interview with ESPN, stating he felt a trade would be the best option.
Then earlier this week, ESPN's Chris Mortensen issued a report stating that Freeman was a stage one participant in the NFL substance abuse program. Freeman denied he had ever tested positive for illegal drugs, stating he has ADHD and is prescribed Adderall, and voluntarily entered the program because he took Ritalin once.
Freeman's camp has maintained that they believe someone within the organization leaked Freeman's private info, in which he was subjected to routine testing at the team facility.
"Unfortunately, it appears that some people who may have noticed the testing at my workplace have made hurtful and incorrect assumptions and chosen to disseminate inaccurate and very disturbing information," said Freeman in a statement.
When asked by reporters Tuesday about being the source of the leak of Freeman's confidential information, Schiano responded, "Absolutely not."
"I know what I've done, and I'm 100 percent comfortable with my behavior. One hundred percent."
Freeman is now an unrestricted free agent. He finishes his career with the Bucs 24-35 and leaves as the franchise leader in career touchdowns (80), single-season touchdowns (27) and single-season passing yards (4,065).

April and May would be a good time to travel anywhere, particularly in southern Europe, so it depends upon your interests.
Unemployment for under 25s in Greece is now over 50%, so there will be lots of young people looking for work this summer. Do you have an EU passport? If not you can't legally work, so will be paid "under the table", and at the mercy of your employers.

Finding work on an island at a bar or cafe should be easy, especially during May when they are beginning to hire staff.
Finding accommodation is relatively easy too, at the beginning of the season, or better 1-2 weeks before the opening of the hotels, it is easier to find accommodation at reasonable prices..
The later in the season you arrive on a island, the more difficult it will be to find accommodation at low prices....
Working at a hotel is not easy, there are studies required in tourism, foreign languages... and of course knowledge of the Greek language.
Everything will be easy if you are a EU citizen, if not you will be working illegally.
After the latest reform that was forced upon the greek hotel employees by the so called troica, you fin working at a hotel not very appealing anyway....
The salary will be ridiculous ( might be around 500 Euro per month if you are under 25), you will have to work every day without any day off, working overtime etc.....
Hotels offer sometimes accommodation, which in my experience usually is substandard and by far not up to the level of the hotel rooms....
Report Abuse
There are some destinations in Spain where April is the peak tourist season -- which means higher prices (likewise if any of your end-of-March travel puts you in the Easter vacation period.
Without knowing what kind of a budget you have or what you hope to get out of your travels through Europe (other than a job on Ios!), it is pretty hard to give advice to you about where to go and how to travel.
There is a great deal of cultural treasure in Spain, Italy and Portugal when it comes to music, art, craft and gastronomy. Other than staying warm, what do you care about?
Report Abuse
thanks for the responses. i have been working in the french alps for the winter so warmth is at the top of my list. would love to experience some different cultures, eat yummy food, meet lots of people/socalise & have fun doing so. not so much into arts/crafts/history side of things.
also i dont have an EU passport so would need to find cash work. have friends who have done this in the past 2 years and they seem to think its quite easy. has anyone done this themselves? if so, is accommodation provided in some jobs?
I have experience with reception/concierge/events & hosting.
budget wise - nothing too extravagant, i would like to have some time off in april may while travelling however will definately need to work after 6 or so weeks off. after summer i would like to have some time off again for a month or two and head to the US.

Uh, are you aware that non-EU citizens are limited to a stay of 90 days in the Schengen Zone? All the countries you mention except Croatia are in the Schengen Zone. Here's details: http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis/cis_4361.html
Report Abuse
Working under the table/for cash is the LEAST of your problems.
If you have overstayed your Schengen limits not only are you unlikely to find work (and accommodations included -- don't think so!) . . . but can be detained/deported and not allowed back for a VERY long time.
The best advice is to go home now and cut your losses . . .
Report Abuse
thanks. if i were to leave the schengen area then return would the 90 days restart though?
im not going to get this opportunity again so advice like go home now and cut your losses, isnt really much help.
Report Abuse
i also have a french working holiday visa which runs until november... wouldnt that dismiss the 90 day requirement?
Report Abuse
I would imagine that a French "working holiday" visa would only be good in France, no? You might want to see if that visa is good in the rest of the EU. It would not be good in Croatia, they are not part of the EU. Also stepping outside of Schengen does not "restart the clock" - but if you have a visa that is good until November, you don't need to worry (unless you overstay in Croatia, for some reason.)
Check with the folks who issued you the visa to see if it is good in EU countries outside of France.
Report Abuse
"if i were to leave the schengen area then return would the 90 days restart though?"
You're allowed a maximum of 90 days in a 180-day period, so crossing a non-Schengen border only to return will not work until that full 180 days has passed. Your 180 days begins the moment you first enter the Schengen zone.
Report Abuse
you didn't mention the visa before. I have no idea if that allows you to work in other countries-only the appropriate authorities can tell you that.
•• BTW- even a 'working visa' doesn't allow illegal/non-taxed employment ••
Report Abuse
Croatia will be the 28th EU member as of the 1st of July 2013
Report Abuse
I believe you are allowed to visit other Schengen countries (apart from the one in which you have the working holiday visa) for a maximum of 90 days out of 180, but hey, what do I know? You need to get expert advice from an immigration lawyer or consulate, not from someone on Fodor's. Even if I am correct, how would you know?
Report Abuse
"Croatia will be the 28th EU member as of the 1st of July 2013"
Yes but they will not be part of the Schengen countries right away, thank goodness. It is suppose to be a year or two (or more) after they join the EU that this will happen.

That was only a clarification to :
"It would not be good in Croatia, they are not part of the EU"

ALBANY, N.Y. – Albany police arrested a 19-year-old Thursday afternoon after he allegedly tried to stab someone in the stomach.
Police say they arrested Clinton Avent, of 201 Kent Street, after they received a call from the victim saying he had just tried to stab him with a knife.
The victim told officers that while at North Main Avenue and Kent Street, Avent approached him and the two began to argue. He stated that during the altercation Avent lunged at him with a folding knife and tried stab him in the stomach. He said he quickly stepped back to get away from him and the knife punctured a hole in the coat that he was wearing.
A description of Avent was broadcasted over the police radio and a short time later an officer spotted him walking near North Main Avenue and Benson Street.
Avent was arrested without incident and charged with Attempted Assault 2nd and Criminal Possession of a Weapon 4th. He has been remanded to the Albany County Jail.

Rangers Nip Islanders, 1-0 In Overtime
ABC Digital
Updated at
(UNIONDALE, N.Y.) — Dan Girardi scored with 1:49 left in overtime to give the New York Rangers a thrilling 1-0 win over the New York Islanders on Saturday night at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
Ranger goalie Henrik Lundqvist stopped 29 shots for his first shutout victory of the season.
Both Lundqvist and Evgeni Nabokov were lights-out in regulation in a game that seemed destined to end in a shootout. Girardi was finally able to flip a shot past Nabakov off a rush for the win.
"That was a long skate, but it was well worth it," Lundqvist said. "They played hard. It was an exciting game to play in. It was fun, a lot of fun. Like a playoff game for sure."
The win kept the Rangers (21-16-4, 46 pts) eighth in the Eastern Conference standings. The Islanders (21-16-5, 47 pts) remain one point ahead. The ninth-place Winnipeg Jets are two points behind the Rangers with seven games remaining.

Delaware proposes $8 million casino bailout plan
At a time when Maryland's casinos are pulling in record revenues with plans in the works to add a sixth gambling facility, Delaware is busy planning to bail{ } out the three operating there.
The Washington Post's reports on Wonkblog that Delaware's government is proposing to divvy up $8 million in bailout money to its three casinos.
The Post reports that Delaware is still waiting to see if online gambling, which it legalized in 2012, will pan out as a profitable venture.
Delaware's three casinos are located in Dover, Wilmington and Harrington. In late may, officials at Dover Downs said it would have to lay off hundreds of employees because of high taxes.
Delaware Online reports that the Dover casino lost more than $280,000 during the first quarter of 2013.
Maryland's five casinos brought in $59 million in revenue this past April alone.
