So Where Is Hungary Exactly…? Blog Entry by the Finance Minister
Hungary has been through what Greece is facing now with structural measures and the need to bring its fiscal house in order to regain credibility. Comparisons are easy to make then, even misleading ones that some analysts have, and this is what the Hungarian Minister of Finance Peter Oszko is warning against in his blog entry that we are publishing here.
European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet was very right yesterday when warning Greece that image and the restoration of market confidence is of primary importance. Hungary has learnt it the hard way, and with the help of the IMF, which Greece may eventually avoid, but Mr. Oszko's comments on restructuring could still be interesting as the financial crisis is all but over.

ProBioGen Introduces Novel Productivity-Boosting Technology for Therapeutic Protein Production: "Pathway Modulator"
|| Print |
|Thursday, 14 June 2012 10:00 (UTC + 2)
Berlin, Germany, June 14, 2012 / B3C newswire / - ProBioGen announced the implementation of its new "Pathway Modulator Technology", a permanent modification of animal cell lines for substantially improved protein yields. The Pathway Modulator Technology is royalty-free and available for new and existing cell lines either in service projects or as a license.
The Pathway Modulator Technology is highly versatile and quick: It is readily applicable to any animal cell line and, notably, even to existing producer cell lines, optimizing their productivity. The Pathway Modulator Technology works through the additional expression of an engineered enzyme in the producer cells. Upon stable transfection, the modulator enzymes' concerted action on several cellular pathways results in substantially enhanced volumetric productivities of protein drugs. For various monoclonal antibodies and fusion proteins tested in CHO, the stable modification enhanced yields between 1.5 and 2.6-fold.
The Pathway Modulator Technology can be installed into any existing cell lines, avoiding an entire new cell line development. It lowers upstream manufacturing costs and speeds up drug development through a more rapid supply of larger quantities of bulk drug substance.
The Pathway Modulator Technology can be freely combined with other parts of ProBioGen's Tool Box, including the GlymaxX® ADCC Enhancement Technology, the stable CHO Evaluation Platform with DG44 and K1 cell lines, and the companies' Full Pharmaceutical CHO Expression and Media Platform.
ProBioGen is actively seeking biopharmaceutical companies with hard-to-make protein drugs or with cell lines of insufficient productivities, to challenge their current yields.
ProBioGen was founded 1994 and is located in Berlin, Germany.

TAMPA — Tampa police detectives on Sunday arrested 27-year-old Andres Trujillo for involvement in a hit-and-run accident early Saturday that critically injured a University of Tampa student and his friend.
Trujillo hung his head and apologized as he left police headquarters on his way to the Orient Road Jail.
"I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry," said Trujillo, who turned himself in to authorities about 5 p.m. Sunday.
"I panicked," he said when asked why he left the scene of the accident.
Injuries caused by the impact have left Erik V. Nicoletti, 20, brain dead, authorities said. He is on life support at Tampa General Hospital. Cree Alisha Riley, 19, is in critical condition, also at TGH.
Nicoletti and Riley were walking just after 1 a.m. Saturday on the north sidewalk of Kennedy Boulevard near North Boulevard when a gray 1993 Chrysler New Yorker veered over the curb and onto the sidewalk, striking both victims at about 30 mph, Lt. Jack Diaz said.
Hillsborough County sheriff's deputies later Saturday found the car abandoned in a ravine near the intersection of N Dale Mabry Highway and Lambright Avenue, police said.
Detectives tracked the vehicle registration and contacted members of Trujillo's family, who persuaded him to turn himself in.
"Especially the grandmother really convinced him to do what was right and turn himself in," Diaz said.
Trujillo told detectives that he dropped a cigarette and when he reached down to pick it up he felt the car hit something. He initially thought it was a small vehicle or motorcycle, and later learned he had hit two people, Diaz said.
"He says he was not drinking," Diaz said.
Trujillo works as a sous chef at Pizzaiolo Bavaro, a downtown Tampa restaurant, according to his arrest report.
He has been arrested multiple times since 2003 on charges including disorderly intoxication, aggravated battery, driving without a valid license and fraudulent use of a credit card, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office Web site.
On Sunday, he was charged with hit and run, leaving the scene of an accident with serious bodily injuries and violation of probation.

AI want to make mmf and I want to use corn syrup to make it more easy to use.. But I didn't find here corn syrup but I've found glucose syrup. Is it ok to use it in the mmf instead of corn syrup? Or they are different and the texture will change??

This is the only MarshMallow Fondant recipe that I've seen that has corn syrup and it's only 2 tbsp., shouldn't make much difference with that little.

Pets mysteriously die after neighbors say they consumed poisoned meatballs
Wed, 05 Feb 2014 21:37:16 GMT —
There is a mystery on the streets of Pawleys Island, where several animals have died after their owners say they ate meatball-like objects found in a yard.
One family is searching for answers after the loss of their two dogs.
"I can live to be 100 years old and I'll never get over this...Coming home and not having Bear come down the stairs or looking in the window," said Russell Hardy, eyes welled up with tears.
About two weeks ago, Jeanine Meditz and her fiancee, Russell Hardy, took their dog Bear out for a walk along their street in Pawleys Island.
"At 1:15 I see him eat something off my front lawn. When I came home at 6:30 he was dead in front of my front door. I couldn't even get in the house," Meditz explained.
An hour later, Meditz said their other dog Jake became severely ill as well.
"We rushed him to the animal hospital where he had to be euthanized. He was dying in front of us."
But, it was only after coming home from the hospital that she noticed something suspicious. Meditz said she walked outside and saw her whole yard filled with a meatball-like objects.
Meditz added that investigators came to collect and test the substance.
Like Meditz, neighbors like Victoria Taber-Santos wants to know those results. Around the same time, she found a dead feral cat in her driveway.
"I went out. I saw it. I went back in the house. I called the police," Taber-Santos explained.
We asked the Georgetown County Sheriff's Office to provide us with the police reports on the incidents and there are five.
In all, they're investigating the deaths of at least three dogs and three cats.
The Sheriff's Office says the test results on the substance are still pending.

Valley banks working with FBI, new technology to prevent robberies
Wed, 15 Feb 2012 00:17:26 GMT —
The Rio Grande Valley saw a slight increase in bank robberies in 2011 but the FBI and business leaders are doing something about it.
The FBI is overseeing the enacting new security measures and installing new types of surveillance cameras at numerous Valley banks.
Anyone who steps into banks with the Bandit Shield sticker is being watched with their image being taken and movements noted.
Marco Urive with the Capital One Bank in Edinburg spoke to Action 4 News about the new security measures.
"It's to protect our customers, associates, and the general public, Urive said.
The bank manager said over the years, he and his colleagues have worked on ways to improve security in order to make getting away a little be harder for any potential bank robber.
FBI Special Agent Erik Vasys agreed.
"We're always learning something new and when new technology is out there to get the best technology, Vasys said.
Their efforts haven't gone unnoticed.
"When a bank complies with practicing most of those procedures, we do something really simple we give them a sticker for their door, Vasys said. Although the FIB is not confirming specifics about the program, Vasys said it requires banks to have high resolution cameras that can capture a person TMs image and make them easily identified by the public.
"We need a good photo because most bank robberies are from the city where they rob, Vasys said.
While Vasys couldn't tell us how many banks are participating in the bandit shield program, he said a majority of the banks in the Valley are getting the training and working their way to this little sticker.
Out of the 85 bank robberies investigated by the FBI TMs San Antonio Division, there only eight in the Valley in 2011.
Of those eight bank robberies reported in the Valley, six were in Brownsville, one in Pharr, and one in McAllen.

Chrono Trigger Ressurection
A 3D fan re-make of the original game which was on the SNES. So far its comming alot very good, i'm ancious to see what the finished project.
COOL! But...
They will only recreate some scenes? What do they mean? Is this not a game?
I was hoping for a game, but it's better than nothing...
Aww I thought this was a post about Chrono Trigger 3 :sad:
Definitely looks good though. I want to start a project like that, but I have school to worry about. I wonder how 'legal' this is. I mean I saw a thread on the forum where they claimed it was legal because it was non-profit, but if they made the entire game and gave it away for free wouldn't that cause loses to Nintendo (assuming people still buy the SNES cart....doubtful). And not only that, its an intellectual property theft isn't it? They are taking all the original artwork (but re-making it), character designs, etc. I have doubts on whether this is truly legal or not. But even if it isn't, I say go for it because its a cool idea :D
holy christ. yesyesyesyesyesyesYES.
Squaresoft might have something to say, but at the same time, this is a pretty old game, so I doubt they would bother... unless they were planning to do their own 3D remake.
Well, this is some great news! Let's see how this evolves...
I wonder if they have implemented any type of game'play' engine yet. Right now according to the screenshots I think they'll probably only allow you to visit these 10 scenes and walk around in them. :/
No they didn't heh. Give ninendo a call and tell them all about your Snes roms. When they ask for your home address maybe you shouldn't give it to them :P
Chrono Trigger: Resurrection [fan re-make]
Hm, seems interesting...but with fans making it...it looses some of the interest.
Chrono Trigger, a remake of the old 1995 super nintendo game...this time in 3-d!
Yay,...I guess.
Now if only Chrono looked more...well...more like Chrono :)
The character looks different, in some way...:S
Chrono reminds me of gohan from dbz.
They Probably doing the redo of the PS1 version of Chrno Trigger.
It's the same artist ;)
Well it looks nice, but sadly there only redoing certain scenes from the game, but you can't expect a few fans to put that much time into something that they make no prophit off.
Looks promising, after a few glances. But what I really, really would like to see is Breath of Fire 2 remade -with a REAL plot and characters. :hmm:
/Still likes of the original graphics; timeless I'd say. :)
he has a retarded look on his face too, but o well its stll a cool idea
The game looks really good, I can't wait to see that come out. Chrono Trigger is one of my favourite games and I'd love to see it remade. I would prefer a remake of the actual game but.. I guess I can't complain, it's better than nothing that's for sure :p
I think the original is PERFECT the way it is, since it is the best game for the Super Famicom/Nintendo. A remake can't make it even better.
I agree 100% with you there.
Altho it is hard to deny the fact that their work, so far, looks pretty damned sweet.

11 Rules for a Cheap Summer Vacation: Plan a memorable and relaxing week by taking advantage of this year's deals and steals . After years of staycations and frugal road trips, Americans appear ready to spend a little more on summer fun—as long as they're still landing good deals. If you're still looking for the perfect summer getaway, here are 11 strategies to consider:
- Collaborate with friends. Rent a large beach house with a group of friends to split the cost. Since beach (and lake) houses can often accommodate multiple families, this method often reduces the cost significantly.
- Pay for the trip in advance. Saving up for a vacation ahead of time is the best way to make sure it doesn't end up on a credit card.
- Think P-I-G-S. The term stands for Portugal, Ireland, Greece, and Spain, all of which are being dragged down by national debt. The upside for American tourists is that fewer business travelers means more opportunities for visitors to score cut-rate deals on hotels and packages.
- Escape inland. Popular coastal cities are charging the most right now. Americans looking to avoid crowds and get better deals should look to cities more often overlooked such as Chicago, Atlanta, Dallas, and Denver. Look for hotels around big convention centers, which are usually empty during the summer and desperate for guests. Plus, they usually feature pools, gyms, and big breakfasts.
- Find a promo. Since resorts and hotels know Americans are still hesitant to part with their cash, they're sweetening deals with discounts and deals. Check for AAA, AARP, senior rates and military discounts.
- Don't forget about cruises. Cruises help travelers to pay for meals and lodging together. They also give passengers the freedom to be more active and take advantage of the many programs or be more relaxed.
- Wait to upgrade. Booking the lowest-price room or vehicle and then upgrading on the spot can lead to better deals. It is not a guarantee, but something to consider.
- Cash in on rewards. If you're due for a payout from your credit card issuer in the form of cash back, gift cards, or airline miles, that payout can be used to fund your summer vacation.
- Bring your own everything. Packing your own snacks, water bottles, and even a bike can reduce daily expenses on the road. Anyone traveling by air, however, will want to adopt the opposite strategy, since many airlines now charge to check bags.
- Don't pay through the nozzle. Getting gas in the morning when gas is cooler and more dense, earning gas savings through a grocery loyalty card, and driving at steady speeds are a few ways to maximize your gas mileage.

New evidence in WPC Yvonne Fletcher's Libya embassy shooting
Scotland Yard has been given a boost in the case of WPC Yvonne Fletcher, who was shot dead outside the Libyan embassy in London in 1984, after the publication of a new eyewitness account.
According to the Daily Telegraph, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has had a report drafted that confirms junior diplomat Abdulmagid Salah Ameri was spotted firing a gun on the day in question.
WPC Fletcher died when Libya officials at the embassy â acting on behalf of leader Muammar al-Gaddafi â opened fire on a crowd of demonstrators.
The eyewitness in question is painter and decorator David Robertson, who said he was at the scene and saw the events unfold before him.
From the CPS report, it is revealed that the suspect was identified with a gun in his hands by Mr Robertson in a position that implied he was about to shoot.
He was not alone, the witness recalled, remarking that men stood on either side of him.
'Mr Robertson made a comment to someone to his left about the gun and, as he did so, he heard the gun being fired from the direction of the bureau, a rapid rat-a-tat-tat lasting for two or three seconds,' the report stated.
Scotland Yard is to be given assistance by the Foreign Office in order to visit Libya to continue its investigation as soon as possible.

Fifty years ago, a show called Nobody Loves Me debuted at the Bucks County Playhouse. After receiving a warm welcome in New Hope, that same show was re-titled Barefoot in the Park and went on to become one of the longest running non-musicals on Broadway, winning several Tony Awards along the way and eventually becoming a popular movie with Robert Redford & Jane Fonda.
When Bucks County's beloved theater re-opened it's doors earlier this summer, it was only fitting for the Playhouse to channel it's brilliant history by bringing back Neil Simon's Barefoot in the Park. The show centers around the humorous trials and tribulations of two newlyweds on the top floor of a New York brownstone. Though filled with nostalgic references to the 1960s, the story-lines easily transcend time- a new couple's ridiculously dramatic first fight, an over-bearing mother, and a quirky neighbor.
The small cast of five deliver noteworthy performances, with supporting actress Candy Buckley (Corie's Mother) of HBO's Treme standing out from the pack with her exceptional comedic timing. The rest of the cast rounds out with Jonathan Hadary (Victor Velasco) who recently played King Arthur in Broadway's hit Spamalot; Lee Aaron Rosen (Paul Bratter) a graduate of NYU's Graduate Acting Program, Virgina Veale (Corie Bratter) a recent graduate of The Juilliard Drama Division; and Robert John Biedermann who just got off his 9th National tour in 8 years. Leading the cast is director Sheryl Kaller, a Tony Award-nominee in 2010 for Geoffrey Nauffts' award-winning play, Next Fall.
For locals, there is an extra casting treat in store- guest appearances by distinguished community leaders in the walk-on role of the "Delivery Person." Click here to see the fun line-up.
This show will bring back warm memories to devoted fans of the play or movie while also resonating with the younger generation experiencing Barefoot in the Park for the first time. Check out upcoming showtimes below:
August 7, 2012 — September 2, 2012
Tuesdays at 8 pm
Wednesdays at 8 pm
Thursdays at 4 pm & 8:30 pm
Fridays at 8 pm
Saturdays at 4 pm & 8:30 pm
Sundays at 2 pm

Broke my glass in the door. Just wondering is this just regular glass or special tempered glass? Can I just go to my local glass company and get a cut piece?? I know my glass says Alaska on it, but it"s in the basement and while I believe it is a show piece it's location surely does not call for any thing special looking?? As they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder..
As always thank you..
My dealer has the glass in stock, Going to get it this afternoon.. I need to give a shout out to the Alaskan people, upon breaking the door I contacted them last night and someone answered, and it was a real person, My stove is 8 years old and the number is still correct..
I inquired about the glass and the gentleman knew who my dealer was, Amazing to me in that I'm in upstate NY. He said he had just shipped him some in an order he had placed for stock parts, I left a voice mail for my dealer received a call this am and will be getting the glass this afternoon.
I must say dealing with coal burning and the stoves and the people associated with it has been a pretty good experience. I can't say I would be able to ask questions like what I do on this site and get answers like I do or be able to read different things if I had for say my natural gas heater.. is there even forum for NG heaters..
Feeling much better, while not so cold this am, 57 in the house the chill is really there.. Wifey will be happy also..

April Fool's Day is a tough time for those of us gathering news. We've gotta keep our guards up so we don't report as fact things such as Phish selling show ribbons, pinatas and Marvin The Martian t-shirts. So it's with a little hesitation we report that the Jerry Garcia estate is selling their version of the Grateful Dead guitarist's iconic Black T-Shirt for one week only. While the plain black T is cool and all it's what comes with the shirt that has piqued our interest.
Those purchasing the Jerry Garcia t-shirt will also receive a digital download card that will allow you to grab the Jerry Garcia Band's first public performance at San Francisco's Warfield Theatre on June 26th, 1981. For this show Garcia was joined by Melvin Seals (organ), Jimmy Warren (electric piano, clavinet), Daoud Shaw (drums), Essra Mohawk (vocals) and Liz Stires (vocals). You can download the show in either FLAC or MP3 320 kbps formats.
The T and download card cost a spendy $24.99 – quite a lot for a plain black T.
Here's the official announcement…
We've all seen it. We've grown accustomed to it. We've even feigned shock when it didn't make it to the stage. Jerry's infamous black Fruit of the Loom pocket t-shirt can now be part of your wardrobe too. We've dubbed this t-shirt "Tour Veteran" for the number of shows its seen, but there is more to this 100% cotton shirt than meets the eye. The shirt's label has been removed and replaced with a Keystone era Jerry illustration screen-printed in grey. The best part? Each t-shirt arrives with a flashback-inducing download card in the pocket which grants access to a special GarciaLive digital-only archival release. Don't bother testing the wares, we didn't take it that far…
We've dug into the Garcia Vault and selected the Jerry Garcia Band's first public performance at San Francisco's Warfield Theatre on June 26th, 1981. Grateful Dead bassist Phil Lesh replaces Garcia Band mainstay John Kahn on bass for the evening. Melvin Seals (organ), Jimmy Warren (electric piano, clavinet), Daoud Shaw (drums), Essra Mohawk (vocals) and Liz Stires (vocals) round out the evening's line-up. The Garcia Vault contains only the evening's second set, but we found the band's performance too compelling to let an incomplete show keep an otherwise stellar recording from release. The five song set features "Mission in the Rain," "Harder They Come," "Knockin' On Heaven's Door and "Dear Prudence" segueing directly into the show closing "Midnight Moonlight."
This first digital-only release has been mastered for release by longtime Garcia collaborator Joe Gastwirt and delivered in your choice of formats: 320kbps MP3 or lossless FLAC.
This 100% cotton t-shirt will be available for purchase in the Official Garcia Store beginning today for ONE WEEK only. It may be April Fools, but we're not pulling any pranks. Don't miss out.

hmmm. good idea to keep the guard up: there's no 3/26/81 show listed on thejerrysite.com, and deadlists.com has GD playing in london on 3/24 and essen on 3/28. would jerry and phil really have flown home for a show and returned to germany for the last show of the tour?
April 1, 2013 at 4:36 pm
great question Kevin. Pretty sure they just have the deat wrong which speaks volumes. 6.26.81 matches the setlist and is the 2nd show with the lineup mentioned.
April 22, 2013 at 2:35 pm
Problem big head ache problem, I got the card for a down load in the shirt(shirt smelled like a bad chemical) went to the wesite to get the down load but it asked for a credit card as if I was purchasing someting. I called the customer service she said the link was not working and sent me another link. When I clicked on it the first time it said site not found. The second time I clicked on it the computer down loaded peep price, rocket launcher and 4 other worthless pieces of crap. It kept telling me to down load flash player and when I did that it kept asking me to do it over and over again. I called customer service she said she never heard of this problem before and that she would email me back with a solution. Stupid crap sucks.

The place is beautiful in the midst of nature. The hacienda is decorated nicely and well maintained, clean. If q is seeking family potluck without cell phone or TV, this is the place. We were two families and had an excellent time, we play football, we rode bikes and the roads. The sunset is unmatched, and evening campfire. There q carry all the food as far from everything. (There is a little shop for emergencies) The kitchen is super equipped. Fully recommended.

|Did this on Saturday and found the first half to be a bit exciting in a possible sprained ankle kind of way. I think a #4 Camalot would be useful on this lower section even though you are never doing any fat crack moves. All in all a good route that ends too soon.

|I agree with Eric in that the first half has tricky gear. While two bomber stoppers to protect the opening moves, after that I had to do a bit of searching. A black alien and a #3 ballnut provide pretty good protection through the initial crux, but it takes a little work to get them in well.

A woman in her 20s was taken to hospital after a road accident in Shelfanger yesterday morning.
Emergency services responded to reports of an accident just after 5am on the B1077.
The driver of the Fiat Cinquecento complained of knee injuries, and was taken to Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital for further assessment.
The road was initially blocked at the time of the accident, while a police spokesperson confirmed the vehicle was moved by about 6.30am.

A NEW row has broken out over the growth of a controversial travellers' caravan site in Blackburn.
Jimmy Evans and his son-in-law, John Price, have applied for permission to make alterations to the development on a former coal merchants' site at the rear of Vincent Street in Ewood.
Two nearby residents have objected to the plans and ward councillor Maureen Bateson expressed concern.
In July 2010 Blackburn with Darwen Council gave Mr Evans approval for two caravans, a chalet and an amenity block on the Acorn Park site. In September 2011 he asked for backdated permission to retain five caravans, a chalet, an amenity block and a WC building on the encampment which had been enlarged.
Hardstanding had been installed and fencing erected around the site. The four extra caravans were used by Mr Evans' grown-up children.
The planning committee refused to approve the scheme but Mr Evans' appeal was upheld by a planning inspector in 2012. The decision was reversed, giving the site official designation as a 'gipsy caravan site'.
Now Mr Evans wants to replace the chalet with a bungalow and reduce the number of caravans on the site from the current four to three, retaining the existing utility building.
His son-in-law John Price has asked for permission to use the neighbouring site of a former garage colony on Vincent Street for a touring caravan, mobile home and shower/toilet building to house one family.
The two applications will be considered by Blackburn with Darwen planning committee on Thursday.
David Andrew of Vincent Street has objected to Mr Evans' application for the changes to Acorn Park, expressing concerns over drainage, access and parking.
Residents of another house in Vincent Street, Anne-Marie Leatherbarrow and Stephen Huckle, have objected to Mr Price's application on the grounds of loss of privacy, loss of trees, poor highways access and parking.
Coun Bateson said: "I am aware of residents' concerns and hope the committee will take note of them when in comes to its decision."
Officers have recommended approval of both applications with conditions imposed.
Both Mr Evans' and Mr Price's agents said they were happy with the officers recommendations.

Somewhere, maybe between magnolia and vanilla, is your scent. Only your nose — with a little help from Bourbon French Parfums — can discover it.
The perfumery, established in 1843 by August Doussan, normally caters to New Orleans' leading families. But on June 4, it came to the West Baton Rouge Museum in Port Allen.
Mary Eleftorea Behlar stood behind a table filled with brown bottles, explaining the perfumery's history. She bought the business in 1991 from Alessandra Crain, who inherited it from her grandmother, Marguerite Acker Beauregard. Beauregard bought the business from her employer, Doussan. The Bourbon French Parfum Co. continues to do business in the French Quarter on the corner of Royal and St. Ann.
Behlar and her assistant, Anne Hall, separate their box of scented oils into categories of florals, spices and powdery. They often conduct scent-blending sessions outside the shop, many times for bachelorette parties.
This session coincides with the museum's exhibit, "A Louisianians's Grand Tour of the Belle Epoque," which follows 25-year-old Aurelie Levert's 1900 trip to Europe. The show runs through July 20.
Levert grew up on St. Delphine Plantation in West Baton Rouge Parish. Her trip took her to the World Exposition in Paris, which included the latest advances in perfumery.
"We use natural scents whenever possible," Behlar says. "But we're limited by regulations."
Audience members — 24 women and a tag-along husband — keep their eyes fixed on the bottles, which are full of possibilities.
A one-on-one session at the shop usually costs $80. Once the scent is blended, it's kept on record.
"Forever," Behlar emphasizes. "We consider ourselves a living museum."
When Behlar evacuated New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, she grabbled only her records of clients' scents.
"Everything else could be replaced," she said. "The records couldn't."
The scents can be made into creams, powders and colognes. Each in the group received only a small vial of their mixtures on this day.
Only five people at a time were allowed at the table, each receiving individual attention. Sweet smells filled the museum's Brick Gallery as bottles opened.
Everything is based on preference. If a client likes a certain scent, it's set aside. When the collection finally comes together, Behlar and Hall squeeze a few drops of each into the vial, then mix them with a good shaking. The result is something as unique as the wearer.
"It's something that only you can wear," Behlar explains. "This scent will not smell the same on anyone else. This was made only for you."
Bea Gyimah agreed. The Baton Rouge Community College English professor attended the session because of her interest in historical and cultural programs. She walked away with something that's become a part of her own history.
"The process wasn't difficult," she says. "There came a point when I knew the scent was right. I knew I didn't want to add anymore, and I love the essence of it. I'm pleased with how it turned out."
Somewhere between vanilla and magnolia, was Gyimah's scent.
"It's uniquely my own," she says. "It's my own signature fragrance."

Hasbro my3D brings 3D gaming, movies and photos to your iPhone
It seems the tech world is 3D-crazy these days, with myriad 3D TVs, cameras and now phones coming the market. I'm not convinced 3D TVs are going to garner mass appeal unless it's for gaming, but handheld gaming devices are another story. With the recent release of the Nintendo 3DS ($249) and several 3D smartphones (around $200) coming soon, the handheld 3D market is exploding. So when I first heard about a device from Hasbro that would bring the 3D experience to the iPhone and iPod for $35, I figured it would be a disappointment. I was wrong.
The Hasbro my3D system for the iPhone and iPod touch came out on Sunday exclusively at Target stores. I went to my local store and found an end-cap display that was about half sold-out. I was unaware they came in two color combinations (white/blue and black/blue) and thought I was getting a black one as shown on the box. If color matters to you, check the top flap of the box or open the front cover to confirm the color.
The my3D is basically a viewer and it requires no batteries. It looks like a View-Master on steroids and you use it with special apps available in the app store and for now at least, all the apps are free. At launch there were seven apps available, one of which is basically a demo app touting all the features of the device.
In the box you'll find the my3D viewer and four different adapter trays that are used to attach your device to the viewer. The trays will fit all iPhones from the 3G up and generation 2-4 iPods. The trays are marked in very small, raised type on the inside to tell you which tray works with each device. Each tray has cutouts for all buttons and the dock connector so you can access them at any time.
The trays attach by means of a spring-loaded hinge pin. Once the correct tray is attached you just slip your device in the tray and launch one of the apps, then follow the step-by-step instructions on the screen. Close the tray, slip your thumbs in the holes and look inside. Easy-peasy.
The best app to try first is the one called my3Dpresents, because it gives you a rundown on how to work the controls and also shows the different types of content you can view, including photos, game trailers, movie trailers and 3Net 3D television from the Discovery Channel, Sony and IMAX. You can download the apps in advance but none of them work without an activation code found in the my3D box. Once activated you can run the apps without the viewer and you'll see that it uses side-by-side images to achieve the 3D effect.
I didn't expect much but I was wowed right away. The 3D photos really jump out at you. The movie and game trailers are really good too, although certain scenes are better than others. In the 3Net demo there is a shot with a barracuda and it looks like it's going to swim right off the screen. My wife, who because of her astigmatism usually cannot see 3D content like this, could see it right away in the my3D and commented about how good it was.
Game play is achieved by inserting your thumbs in the two holes at the bottom of the viewer. The you use your thumbs on the iPhone/iPod touch screen for game control, along with moving the viewer and yourself.
Currently there are six games available for the my3D system and all are free downloads:
- Tunnel Pilot - A futuristic racing game that reminds me of Star Wars pod racing in a tunnel.
- 360 Sharks - You become a shark and swim around, attacking fish and eating them so you can grow. (I found out I would never make it as a baby Great White)
- Sector 17 - A space shooter game that reminds me of the scene with Han Solo and Luke Skywalker in the Mellenium Falcon. This is a 360 game.
- Shatterstorm - Similar to the classic Atari Tempest game. The 3D effect and graphics on this one are not particularly good.
- Bubble Bolt - You are a cartoon fish in a bubble and you have to roll around different levels of an obstacle course. Similar to the popular Marble Blast game.
- TelePort: LA - You have been sent via teleport to the Santa Monica pier, where you are asked to spin around and find things based on clues. The 3D effect is OK but the questions are really silly and the objects too easy to find.
Of the six games, Sector 17 and Tunnel Pilot are the best. Some of the games are 360, meaning that you can stand up and spin around to explore the entire gaming space. That's a pretty cool experience but be careful. It's easy to start spinning around and lose track of where you are in the room. It looks like someone in the Hasbro legal department noticed this too because mine had a warning sticker on the box and the user manual that looked as if it were included late in the game.
For $35 the 3D experience delivered by the my3D system is excellent and it exceeded my expectations. The device itself is pretty big and clunky, however, and that will make it difficult for some people to hold to their face for long periods of time. I can't imagine watching a full-length movie with it pressed to my face, especially when there are more discreet options coming for that. I'm also not fond of looking like a Rebel Alliance scout using one of those big, electronic binoculars. (That's three Star Wars references in one a review. A new record!) I see this primarily as a gaming and entertainment system for kids who already have iPods. The my3D box shows mainly young adults, however, so we'll have to wait and see if Hasbro missed their marketing mark.
Side note:
If you ever need to take creepy, magnified pictures of your eye looking through a hole, you can do that with the my3D too. Just turn on the front-facing camera on your iPhone 4 and snap away. Why? Because you can!

As wildfires continue to rage across parts of Southern California, I sat down with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, R-Calif., this afternoon and asked him how his state is coping with the mounting crisis.
"It's zero-containment right now," he told me. "This has been a very fast moving fire, as it is usually at this time of the year with the Santa Ana conditions, with the winds kicking up. Last night for instance, we had 60 to 70 mile per hour winds. It means that while the fire departments try to put out a fire over here, fires jump and go a mile and a half away and start new fires. So it's very fast spreading."
The Governor, who declared a state of emergency earlier today, went on to explain "tonight there will be more winds kicking up…we just have to be very careful and have enough aircrafts down there and also helicopters to dump water and fire retardants so it doesn't spread that quickly and hopefully we will see some progress very soon. But over 100 homes have already been destroyed and these are really high-end homes also and so it's really a very beautiful area."
To hear the Governor's view on how the fires will impact the California budget, his take on a bailout of the auto industry, and his thoughts on the future of the GOP tune in to This Week on Sunday.

Edward Jackson
b.14 Feb 1755 Craven Co., South Carolina
d.22 Feb 1845 Waterville, Walker Co., Georgia
Family tree▼
m. prob by 1738
m. 1780
m. Jun 1803
Facts and Events
5 Mar 2006: Y-DNA sampling confirms the link between the Benjamin Jackson line, father of Edward, and the James Jackson-Rebecca Hallett line of New York.
Researcher for this line, Bob Mitchell, has written a page about Edward's father, Benjamin's wives and which children belong to which wife and it is posted here:
Concerning the birth location of Edward, Bob Mitchell writes: "The border in Anson Co. with South Carolina was apparently a moving target for many years. I guess the best way to look at is before 1764 and after. After 1764 most of what our Jackson's held was in SC. Their land was in the Cheraws area of NC/SC which became the Cheraws Dist of South Carolina. Included in the Cheraws was southern Anson Co., NC, Craven Co., SC, Chesterfield Co., SC and part of what is now Chester Co., SC and Union Co. and Richmond Co., NC.
Family Life
Genealogist Grady Langley writes "Edward lived near the town of Auburn, which was originally in Jackson Co. but became a part of Gwinnett Co. when the latter county was established.
22 Dec 1794 Land Entry: Edward Jackson entered 150 acres in Anson County, North Carolina on the waters of Clay Creek, adjoining John Harnet, James Wimberly, Stephen Jackson and John Hendrick.
Edward Jackson drew a Bounty Grant as a Revolutionary Soldier in the Lottery of 1827, (Lot 52, District 14, Muscogee County, Georgia), while a resident of Davis District, Gwinnett County, Georgia. This is also mentioned in Pruitt's North Carolina Land Entries, 107, No.1639: Edward drew Muscogee County land granted 18 Dec 1827.
The Heritage, pg 12: 'Edward's son David and daughter-in-law Rachel Bracken Jackson, along with daughter Mahaley 'Alsey' Jackson Myers and her husband Carney left for Walker county in 1837, taking with them their children. It was while he was visiting these children and grandchildren in Waterville, several miles slightly SE from LaFayette, Walker County, that Edward died February 22, 1845, at age 90."
According to "Gone to Georgia", p. 156 & 157) Gwinnett County, GA Families 1818-1968, he was enumerated in the 1840 census as 96 years old. But in 1840 he would have been 85/86 so there is likely a typo there. Checking the census records at ancestry.com we find Edward enumerated on the 1840 Census for Gwinnett Co., Georgia.
Revolutionary War Service
While a resident of Chesterfield District, South Carolina, Edward Jackson enlisted in 1775 and served at various times until the close of the Revolution, amounting to about two years in all as private in Captains Griffith's and Lloyd's companies in Colonel Benton's South Carolina regiment. He was in the Battle of Cocsawhatchie, South Carolina, eighty-two miles southwest of Charleston on the road to Georgia. This battle was fought on May 11, 12 and 13, 1779, between the forces of the British General Provost and those of the American Lieutenent Colonel Laurens in which half of the Continentals were killed.
A transcription of his pension application W2119 can be found at: http://southerncampaign.org/pen/index.htm. Edward Jackson was allowed pension of Thirty Dollars per annum to commence on the 4th day of March, 1831, on his application executed October 5, 1832, at which time he was a resident of that part of Gwinnett County, Georgia, which was out from Jackson County by the Georgia Acts of 1818, 1819 and 1820.
The Heritage, pg 12: "Edward applied for a pension and was allowed $30 per annum beginning July 1, 1833 with $75. of back pay. He signed the application himself, showing he was literate.
Edward Jackson is buried one and a half miles north of Trion, Chattooga County, Georgia, in the Poe Cemetery, west of the Alabama Road. On October 15, 1939, the William Marsh Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution unveiled a Government marker at the grave of Edward Jackson. The memorial address was delivered by the Secretary-General of the National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution, Mr. Frank B. Steele, of Washington, D.C.
Poe Cemetery is on private land, the former Marsh place. The William Marsh Chapter of the D.A.R. from Lafayette, Georgia maintains his gravesite several times a year. It is mentioned in Edward's granddaughter Lydia's 1888 obituary that her grandfather Edward is buried on the Marsh place.
A second memorial including a stone is listed for Edward Jackson in Suwanee Memorial Cemetery, Gwinnett County, Georgia. This memorial clearly states that it is a memorial only; that Edward was not buried there but is buried in Poe Cemetery, Chattooga Co., Georgia.

I was born with a small "club" like tooth on one side of the my two front teeth. My story begins in my early 30's at trying to get cosmetic work done on this tooth. One dentist put a brace on my front tooth and the canine tooth to "make room" for crown. In the process he pulled the front tooth up and over, then placed the crown on the small problem tooth after prepping it down to a small nub. He then placed a crown, but it was not anywhere near what the other side looks like and one front tooth was shorter than the other. He said don't worry it will fall down. Well it couldnt because there was not room for it to fall. Fast forward about 5 yrs, and I go to another dentist who said the only way to fix the short front tooth was to put a veneer on it. So he prepped that one and put a veneer on it, but now I have a tooth the length of a horse tooth when I smile because of how far the tooth had been pulled up by the brace.
About 5 years later,my large crown chipped and I go to another "reputable cosmestic dentist". He assures me he has vast experience in these issues, but refuses to put a crown on the tooth until I have surgery to repair the gum line, which I guess is a good thing. 1200 dollars for that and to repair gumline on old club tooth area. He assured me I could get a carbon copy of the adjoining two teeth. Not. The big tooth was too wide and the gumline was overcorrected, so now the big tooth looks too short. And the baby club tooth looks a little better, but is not aligned correctly, so it is still off. Club crown came off a couple of times, had pins put in for some structure to hold onto. But I stressed everytime I had my teeth cleaned for fear it would loosen it up and fall out the next day. Then came the day recently when the club tooth just finally broke off at the gumline. I have found a new dentist I like that I had researched online with certification thru AAID (American Academy of Implant Dentistry, among other certifications). It told me what training he had, that he had been certified by his peers and met national standards of education and practice. He is certified in comprehensive and reconstructive dentistry, which was the most important for me, and general dentistry. Upon discussing my long history of issues with dentists who called themselves cosmetic dentists, he informed me that any dentist can put "cosmetic" in front of their names although they have had no formal training in the area. It is big business and everyone wants a part of it. He further told me he was selected to attend a conference in Washington to speak regarding changes in laws requiring dentists to provide documentation of formal training in the area, or they cannot perform or advertise such. As recently as today, he advised these laws shall take affect in approx 6 months or so. Which is good news for consumers, particularly me. He has been in practice for over 30 yrs.
Anyway, back to my story,club tooth finally breaks off at gumline. Now other than wisdom teeth, never had an extraction, so that stressed me, then he was placing an implant, which stressed me even more. Amazingly, he removed the club tooth, taking his time not to break my bone,or break the tooth off in my bone, and did so while working in a very small space. The implant was nothing that I thought it would be. I couldnt even tell he was screwing it into the bone. I was told it is like taking a tree out of the ground, you have a hole already, and just replacing it with a implant. Thought for sure when the numbing wore off I would feel like I had been in a train wreck. But a couple of hours later, nothing. Never had any pain, throbbing or discomfort. I have to wait approx 4 months for a cap to be placed on the implant, and then a few weeks later my crown will be placed. This dentist sat with me for over an hour showing me before and after work he had done on hundreds of other patients, from difficult to easy. I feel comfortable I have finally found a qualified dentist to work on my teeth.
He, his wife, and teenage children travel every spring to Guatemala to provide free dentistry to citizens. They created G.A.P.(Guatemala Awareness Project.) I wrote this in hopes it will save some people money and disappointment. Do your homework before you let someone touch your mouth. Even this dentist admits he let dentists in his mouth in his younger years, after being in a car accident, that did terrible work on him and he still suffers from some of it today.

Las Vegas, Nevada (PRWEB) March 14, 2014
Send Me On Vacation is excited to announce yet another charity event that will directly benefit breast cancer survivors. On April 5, 2014, timeshare and vacation industry professionals will convene at the South Point Hotel, Casino and Spa in Las Vegas before the ARDA World Convention for the TrackResults "Go All In To Help Cancer Survivors Win" poker tournament.
TrackResults, the only company in the industry to offer real-time and cloud based analytics that can increase the bottom line of sales and marketing centers, is proud to be partnered with this incredible charity. Send Me On Vacation is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit with the mission of sending breast cancer survivors on vacations to heal their mind, body and spirit after completing treatments for breast cancer. Because of the devastating effects – both financially and physically – that cancer treatments can have, these women are not always able to get away and clear their mind of the strenuous journey they have just endured. This is where Send Me On Vacation comes in.
Last year, Send Me On Vacation sent 22 deserving women on vacations around the world. This year, the charity hopes to double that number. The "Go All In To Help Cancer Survivors Win" will play a big role in raising funds to send these incredible women on the vacations that they need and deserve.
The poker tournament will be hosted by timeshare software TrackResults, with all of the proceeds going to the company's charity of choice: Send Me On Vacation. A total of 11 tables will be included in the poker tournament. Ten of the tables will be sold for a buy-in of $2,500. Final table level of sponsorship is still available and up for grabs. Each table features nine seats and will prominently display which company has donated to SMOV.
"TrackResults never ceases to amaze us with their open-hearted generosity and their unique ideas to support Send Me On Vacation, sending in-need cancer survivors on a well-deserved vacation following treatment," said Send Me On Vacation's President, Cathy Backus.
At the end of the night, a cash prize will be given to the player who wins the tournament. Throughout the night, other prizes will be given to other winners including items such as Las Vegas dinner vouchers, electronics, signed sports memorabilia, Las Vegas show tickets and much more. SMOV is also looking for donations for a silent auction that will happen simultaneously during the poker tournament.
The tournament will most likely be limited to 10-12 tables. Most of these tables have been sponsored/sold already. The major sponsors that have already committed to this cause are: Travel To Go, Merlin Software, Breckenridge Grand Vacations, SaveON Resorts, Westgate Resorts, Festiva Hospitality, Wells Fargo, Brag Fire, Leisure Loyalty, and TrackResults.
"'Investing in the future' has always been a hallmark of The March Group of Wells Fargo Advisors," Nico F. March said, the Senior Vice President and Senior Institutional Consultant of The March Group of Wells Fargo Advisors. "The ability to help the great folks at Send Me On Vacation and invest in the future of worthy individuals is even more fulfilling."
Table-buyers and donators are extremely excited to be a part of this great event, and to donate to such a worthy cause.
"It is Merlin's first time supporting Send Me On Vacation," said Director of Business for Merlin Software, Mike Ashton. "I have seen first-hand at a C.A.R.E. conference the different this program makes and we are very proud to help in our small way."
For companies or individuals interested in sponsoring a table along with a survivor, or to become a "prizes" sponsor for recognition to help the cause, contact Todd at todd(at)trackresults(dot)net. For those who would like to donate an item to the silent auction or make a donation to Send Me On Vacation, contact Cathy Backus at backuscathy(at)gmail(dot)com.

Total general aviation (GA) airplane billings in the first half of the year reached $10.4 billion, an increase of more than 25 percent over the same period last year, according to statistics released yesterday by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA). This is the first time since the first half of 2008 that six-month industry revenues have exceeded $10 billion.
While overall GA airplane shipments rose 8.9 percent from the first six months of last year, business jet deliveries decreased by 4.1 percent, falling by 12 aircraft to 283 shipments. On the turboprop side, the results were positive.
GAMA recently divided its reporting of the turboprop segment into single- and multi-engine categories. While the former showed a 3.8-percent increase year-over-year, filtering out non-pressurized aircraft reveals a 4-percent decrease among the pressurized turboprop singles. Thanks to a ramp-up in King Air production–with delivery of 24 more aircraft in the first half of this year than in the same period last year–Beechcraft single-handedly boosted the twin-engine turboprop category by more than 70 percent year-over-year.
"We are encouraged to see a strong increase in billings this quarter, but the mixed results in shipments–and the differences in performance among sectors–demonstrate that GA airplane manufacturers still face some strong headwinds as the global economy recovers," said GAMA president and CEO Pete Bunce.

What better time to reflect on the meanings of peace, charity and compassion than during the holidays? In the spirit of promoting those virtues, the Campbell United Methodist Church is hosting a holiday peace fair to bring together a variety of social justice organizations in the South Bay.
Cosponsored by the San Jose branch of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, along with the San Jose Peace and Justice Center, the fair will be held from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Dec. 1 at the church, 1675 Winchester Blvd.
Last year, the fair was held at the Willow Glen United Methodist Church. According to event coordinator Joan Goddard, the location of the fair changes every year but it has remained a South Bay event for 30 years.
The fair is an opportunity for people to become informed about different peace and justice-oriented groups in the area, Goddard said. About 20 organizations, many of them nonprofits, are participating in the event. Among them are Our Developing World, Veterans for Peace, Pesticide Alternatives, Nihonmachi Outreach Committee, International Solidarity Movement, Health Care for All California, Ethical Culture Society of Silicon Valley and the Kateri Tekakwitha Mission Fund: Guatemala.
Joan Wildermann, a Campbell resident and coordinator of the Clothesline Project, will also be in attendance to do outreach for the organization, which focuses on violence against women.
The organizations will each have a table where they will sell items that promote peace, said Goddard. They will also have information about the work that they do.
Some of the items for sale include jewelry, arts and crafts from the U.S. as well as other countries, buttons, posters, bumper stickers, T-shirts, calendars, books and educational toys and games for children, including some that are handmade. The Free Palestine Movement will sell olive oil from the Palestinian territory.
"It's a chance to get interesting, unique gifts–gifts that are not manufactured," said Goddard.
Parents are encouraged to bring their children. For the first time this year, organizers will have a designated area for kids that will include crafts, games and an electric train set. Starting at noon, kids will be treated to theater games and storytelling, alternating every 15 minutes.
Six entertainment groups have been invited to perform at the fair, including the San Jose Peace Chorale, Raging Grannies, Middle Eastern Women's Dance Group and El Grito de la Cultura.
There will also be something to satisfy those with a sweet tooth: a dessert table with homemade goods.
Admission to the fair is a $2 donation. To buy tickets in advance, call the San Jose Peace and Justice Center between 4 and 7 p.m. weekdays at 408.297.2299. Children will be admitted free.

How important are maps to you while hiking the AT?
How important are maps to you while hiking the AT?
We used the entire AT map set (sold by the ATC) for our thru-hike, and found them extremely helpful, not only for the elevation profile (which I have to concede, often seemed incorrect when you were actually HIKING it), but we also used it when we wanted to step off the trail and explore other areas around us, to find water sources that weren't always in Wingfoot (especially helpful for New York), and to get an overall sense of what every day would be bringing us.
We encountered quite a few thru-hikers who didn't invest in the maps, and consequently were ALWAYS peering over our shoulder or asking if they could "take a peek when we were done with that" to see elevation profile, etc. It got to be irritating pretty quickly...(especially when we were packed up and ready to go, and just waiting for the return of our map) but in trying to preserve trail harmony we never made a fuss about it. Just something to think about for those who are not considering them....(also, I have the complete set numbered and in order from South to North, if anyone would be interested in purchsing it at a discount from the ATC price)...
"It's a dangerous business, going out your door...if you don't keep your feet, there's no telling where you might be swept off to."-The Hobbit
I carried maps on my thru hike, using a bump box, to recieve the next set. You really do not need them, but they made my hike alot more fun. I am a map person. I like maps. Plus, it gave me someting to look at and read on those lonely evenings.
AT users should be extremely appreciative that the AT is clearly (?)marked with white blazes, divergent trails marked in blue and its even marked where the intersection of a divergent trail is approaching and that you have the luxury of discussing whether to even use maps or not.
Its not the case on the CDT where map & compass is as needed as raingear. In some parts there is no trail at all, seldom is there any explanation for divergent trails-which may or usually may NOT be on the map- and the few CDT signs may-like other backpackers you'll see- be days apart.
I cant wait to try it. But I'll still take map & compass. Thats a habit I doubt I'll break!

How Much?

Hi Sgt Rock,
The ATC web site sells them for $189 for non-members (the price we paid) and $150 for memebers...we'd let the whole set go for like $100 bucks, including the book for Maine..email me privately if you're interested and we can set it up...
"It's a dangerous business, going out your door...if you don't keep your feet, there's no telling where you might be swept off to."-The Hobbit
Maps are imoportsant. Not to mention great fun to have. HH
Hammock Hanger -- Life is my journey and I'm surely not rushing to the "summit"...:D
I didn't use maps until VT, and from there on I used them. I usually bought them for the elevation profile...but now I have a better reason.
Me and my partner were hiking along N of Gorham, in fact we were almost to Gentian Pond Lean To, when she got stung by a bee or a hornet (we're not sure which). Normally, this isn't a big deal, sure it hurts but that's it right? Wrong, my girlfriend happens to be allergic. So we keep hiking until the shelter, going slowly for obvious reasons. When we get there her hand is swollen to twice its size, the swelling is moving up her wrist, she has broken out in hives everywhere, and she is itchy all over, also, her eyes were getting puffy. So we throw some Benadryl down her throat and just in case, I go to get her Epi pen out of her pack. Guess what? That's right, somehow, somewhere, the Epi pen has gone MIA (missing in action). Oh sh.. not good. It is now obvious (even though its only been 10 minutes since we sat down) that we need to get off trail and to a hospital. So I pull out my MAPS!!! And find out the blue blaze right next to the shelter leads to a road, and its 3 miles....a lot shorter than backtracking on the AT. So off we go, the blue blaze runs into a forest service road, we find some people picking blueberries (after only a mile, thankfully) and they give us a ride to the emergency room. Full recovery, living happily everafter and all that jazz.
So I know this is really long, but THAT is the reason you need maps.
The books are fine, but when you need detail on roads, terrain etc..nothing beats a map. I will not do a long distance hike again w/out a map....
"Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit"- Ed Abbey
Great example Yeti. Glad she is OK. I agree that emergency "replans" are probably the most important reason for maps on the AT (at least in the south, my only AT experience).
I might add though that maps are very helpful (if not essential) non-emergency replans. Numerous times I have used a map to change my trip plans (maybe I should have planned better, like SGT Rocks military attack plans). This June our maps allowed us to add some miles and interest to our trip on the move and helped us find a camping spot not in the guide book.
I also enjoy just messing with the map and compass to try to figure things out from overlooks. For me it adds to the experience.
Even with the exhaustive planning that goes into military actions, the unexpected is to be expected. Having up-to-date maps available is instrumental to having soldiers adjust plans on-the-fly and act with some level of reasonable independence.
I made good use of my trail map last Fall. I had just left Sam Moore Shelter heading north to Snickers Gap when I encountered a teenage girl with a tiny bookbag-type daypack hiking south. I asked her where she was heading and she said her folks house in Bluemont. She had been dropped off in Snickers Gap by a friend and was just enjoying an afternoon walk. Fortunately, I recalled seeing Bluemont on my map just northeast of Snickers Gap, and I also knew that the next road crossing to the south was about 15 miles. I convinced her that she was walking the wrong way. In retrospect, she could have died of hypothermia that evening if she hadn't found shelter and warmth.
Of course, as a computer science & geography major, I just love maps. But they can be useful even on the relatively narrow ridges of the central AT where civilization is never really very far away.
Nobody with any sense goes into the backcountry for 6 hours, let alone 6 months, without the best current map of the area they'll be visiting, and, needless to say the ability to read and use the map they're carring.
Whether it's to know, or to keep track of where you are; for use in an emergency (for your own use or to assist others); to pinpoint the location of lost, injured or otherwise at risk hikers; to assist search, rescue, or law enforcement personnel; for use when you need to get outtta the woods and back to a road or civilization as soon as possible, for whatever reason; to locate additional water sources than the ones immediately adjacent to the Trail; to plan your daily itinerary and hiking schedule; to help plan your food needs for each section depending on the terrain involved; to figure out where it'd be wise to have friends from home join you on your hike, and where they shouldn't; to help pick out where you want to end the day, pitch your tent, see a sunset; to help you plan your day so you get the worst part of the day's hiking over early on, while you're fresh and it's not too hot yet; to help plan your day so you don't end your day with a monster uphill; and on and on. There are all sorts of things Trail maps are good for. However, there's one main reason to carry them: Only a fool goes out into the backcountry without one.
Map buffs should check out the Historic USGS Maps at the UNH DIMOND LIBRARY. They have a collection of awesome "antique" topo maps. Get to the Monson maps via the following link:
"You're young 'til you die"
Maps of the AT help somewhat. I mainly carry them in case of an emergency, to find roads, towns, trails, etc.
the maps are good for reference..
BUT, the A.T. is marked so well & so well defined (let alone the numbers of people out there for six-plus months)...it's almost impossible the get off the the trail (unless on purpose).
p.s. (i take the Data Book!)
see ya'll UP the trail!
I love maps. like to read em, mess with em, etc.
that said, i didnt carry a single map the whole length of the AT. just not needed. a weight trade off.
The only thing better than mountains, is mountains where you haven't been.
I always carried the map for the section I was hiking. For all the reasons Jack mentioned.
If hiking in a place I know intimately, like Shenandoah or Grayson, I don't often carry maps. But anyplace else, definitely.
For weight consideration, I did not carry any guidebooks, Data Book, Wingfoot, or Companion. Instead, I photocopied the relevant parts from each plus the elevation profile from the map, cut-and-pasted (the old fashioned way, with scissors and glue) to a single sheet for what I figured would be a day's distance. Then made a photocopy of THAT on more durable paper. So for say, five days, I only carried five sheets of paper--with the one I needed that day in my pocket in a ziploc for ease of referral. The other sheets stayed in my pack in the same ziploc as my other paperwork until needed. Sometimes the text for a day's hike would spill over to the other side of the sheet, sometimes not. If I didn't stick to the exact estimate of what a day's hike would be (happened a lot!)--not a big deal--just get out the next sheet mid-day.
It's a lot of pre-hike prep work, but better to save weight this way than to do without the maps IMO.
Like a lot of things, it depends on your comfort level. There are lots of things you can carry that you may never need - map, compass, first aid kit, knife, fire starter, whistle, etc., etc. For 99 out of 100 hikes on the AT, you aren't going to need them. But, if the right thing goes wrong ...
I'm the type who can pore over a map for hours. Sure, on the AT your route is largely predetermined. But I still enjoying soaking in a map's details and exploring its possibilities. A good map can also serve as either a window into the future or a review of the past. Surely I'm not the only one who's relived a favorite trip by pulling out a map some winter evening and retracing the route I followed way back when. But then again, competing in orienteering meets twice a month or so may slightly bias my opinion towards maps
I'm with you Saint. I don't remember all the details of my trips, but when I pull out the maps, a lot more comes to mind: miles covered, campsites, break rests, views, etc.Originally Posted by TheSaint
I think maps can be a great help on the AT, or any other trail, for that matter.
They usually can aid you in finding your pace on the trail, and are a great help if you ever get yourself into an emergency situation that involves getting off the trail.
I usually don't use them, but would probably look into getting some kind of area maps on my next trip.

Says it all! I really hate the way things are. I feel like I'm in a job with no days off.. no hours off, really. I am never not working.
I take care of the kids (3.5 yo and 14 mo), feed and dress them, nurse and diaper DD, take them to the park (we live in a scary apartment, I cannot let them play outside here) pretty much every day, go to museums and zoos and etc etc etc, cook and clean, do the grocery shopping, do the budget and pay the bills, plan our family outings, plan our family trips (our friends and family live 3 hours away and we visit once/month), I bathe the kids and put them to bed. I nighttime parent and partially cosleep with DD, who is not nightweaned. I am too tired to attempt to nightwean her because I'm at home on my own overnight.
DH cooks once a week. He takes out the trash (sometimes). He does the laundry (except the dipes). He takes the kids out for a few hours on Saturday mornings... and while that sounds like a break, it's because Saturdays are my long run day. Running is my passion, my only hobby or activity, and I only take like 45 minutes twice a week, and then a long one Saturday because I am training for a marathon. But at this rate, I feel like I am losing this time too and am on the brink of giving up running.
Here's our schedule: DH works 11pm-7am, is with us from about 730 am (when we wake) until 1 pm and then goes to bed. I am on my own with the kids for the rest of the day and night until he gets home from work the next day at 730 am. He has two days a week off, and sleeps at night with us on those days, so he has to take a lengthy nap in the middle of the first day. There's also the issue that his job is unpredictable and sometimes instead of 730 am is 930.. or 1030..
I feel like DH being with us 5 hours/day should give some sort of relief but it doesn't. He's tired coming off of work and doesn't want to take care of the kids on his own, plus he wants time with me. I also want time with him, but gee, I would love some time away from the kids. I have even considered working part time just to get away (seriously!) but I literally make what childcare costs around here (who knew childcare was so outrageous?!) and I just can't reconcile sending my kids to some random place I don't trust at all, having to leave their mama, so I can do a pointless job where I'll have a "break".
I hate feeling like a martyr... like I'm doing everything for everyone and nothing for myself. How do SAHP's find time for themselves? How do you negotiate more household responsibility with your partner?! HELP!
ETA: DH wants to help me change this. He wants me to have some more freedom, but neither of us can come up with any realistic ideas.
Sleepy, running, wife to DH 08/09 - Mama to DS 8/08 & DD 1/11
"Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare. " - Japanese Proverb
What's the budget like? Is there any money for a gym membership that would include childcare? (our rec center gives an hour of childcare for free each time you come in, I've been tempted to join just for a chance to shower uninterrupted!) Or a mother's helper? When DH works a lot of OT and we have the money, I've hired neighborhood kids to come play with mine so I get a little break. What time do your kids go to sleep for the night? If you could find someone willing to come and sit at your house while your kids are in bed - say from 8-9, even - you could go to the library, the grocery store, out for a run, whatever. It would be a great job for an older lady or high school student in your apartment complex, if you can spare the cash.
I've been in your shoes, and always on too tight of a budget to do the things i mentioned above, or put a kid in preschool, or anything else. From my own experience:
My first piece of advice is to hang in there. Chances are, your 14 month old will start sleeping better soon, and things will get easier.
My other piece of advice is to identify one change you want to make. Is more time for running? Is it improving your sleep by nightweaning? Pick one thing to work to make life easier for everyone, and focus on it.
Also consider that maybe the marathon isn't what you want right at this moment. Maybe running for 45 minutes three times a week, plus a chance to relax or sleep, would be more rejuvenating for you.
Try to plan something for the time your DH is home, once a week or so. Maybe make breakfast your big, special meal of the day. A walk if he's not too tired. Reading stories. Whatever might be fun for all of you. This is where you have more family time than I do, but less couple time, because DH and I usually hang out after the kids go to bed. If at all possible, plan a date night. Maybe when you visit your family, they'd watch the kids while you and DH run together or just go for a walk?
And while I am NOT saying what you are doing isn't hard - I know it is, last year at this time I had a 6 year old, a four year old, a sixteen month old, and a two month old - try to count your blessings. Your DH has a job and is working hard to take care of his family. You have two awesome kids. It will get easier and there will be more time for you.
Wish you lived near me. We could swap childcare and both get a break!
I wish I knew because then my life would be lots better! DH works full time and goes to school full time. I am at home with the kids, by myself doing it all, all the time. I also take the kids with me to work 3 hrs a day. Weekends belong to homework, so it's not much better.
It's strange to feel lonely with you're with two other people all day. At least for me, DH only has a year left, so there is light at the end of the tunnel, but there are bad days... like today. And they are really hard to muddle through sometimes.
Wish i had more help, but I've yet to figure out how to make time for myself. I've started on insisting to go grocery shopping by myself, that's about the only alone time I get, ever. I can't even find time to go running, I have to do it at home on the treadmill and stop every few mins to run and check on the kids.
It sucks!
You sound like you definitely need a break!
I would hire a baby-sitter to come in for a few hours a couple of days a week, just so that you have some time alone to do whatever it is you need to in order to recharge. Maybe you could even barter for the hours, but if not, still consider it. I know that when my husband brought that idea up for us, I just couldn't get behind it at first -- I felt like it was a "waste" of money when I could be taking care of the baby myself. But it is so, so very worth it. Even you have to budget differently for a little while. Think about it...that time makes such a huge difference!
Can your hubby take on some chores for you? Maybe breakfast or lunch prep, or possibly grocery shopping (with at least 1 kid along). It sounds like just a few small changes would really help you. Also, child-swapping! Find some like-minded pals and trade for some FREE free time ;)
Mama to and
Second shift is rough. . your husband does need to realize that you are working too and need a bit of time to yourself. Maybe a morning run would really lift your spirits. Watching his children should not be an option. Mom's need and deserve an hour a day to themselves. I also want to say your kids are very young and it does get easier. Try connecting with more people in your new area. Meet some new friends. Maybe someone you could run with or start a small playgroup. Putting your oldest in preschool a few days a week might help. It really does get easier as they get older, hang in there.
On a personal note, my husband cooks 1x a week, takes out the trash and fixes the cars. Sometimes he helps with laundry but I don't ask him to do to many chores around the house(my kids are older then yours though). Childcare is a different story. They are his children too. If I want to go out to coffee with a friend or go to the store by myself or what ever it should not be an issue. It has not always been like this. I have been he parent doing everything except working. It's not healthy for mom, kids, or a marriage. If you really can't talk some sense into him maybe a few sessions of marriage counseling would help. Being a SAHM should not mean you are an indentured servant.
Thanks for the responses. Lots of good ideas mentioned cost $$$ we absolutely don't have. However, we did cancel our cable, considering how silly it was we had it in the first place... and that $70/month is now a membership to the Y who has free childwatch while you work. That was pretty much our only opening in our budget. I am hoping to put 3.5 yo DS in preschool this summer as well, but we're still saving for that.
Child swapping sounds like a great idea. I was thinking about trying to arrange a meeting of the other spouses who work with the officers on his shift. Can't be easy on all of them right? Even if they are working parents, it's unlikely they also work midnights.
I also decided to join a running group who meets on Saturday mornings so at least while I'm out for my weekend runs I get some company. Part of me wants to give up on the marathon, but I have been training since August and the race is in 7 weeks. I've just worked too hard to not do it now. I will be very proud and relieved when it's over.
I thought about the suggestion for marriage counseling and think I'm going to talk to DH about this. I think it seems like a strange idea to us, because of the stigma that only "bad" marriages need counseling.. and DH and I have hardly even had a disagreement in our 5 years together (2.5 married). But our roles within our marriage have seriously changed in the last year and it's been pretty hard on me.. plus counseling is offered to us for free because he's in law enforcement so I think it's a good idea to take advantage of that.
So I wrote this 5 days ago and I was ready to crack, and though not much has technically changed I do feel a sense of hope now that I can at least change it a little at a time.
