What is The Intrepid Foundation?
The Intrepid Foundation (TIF) is a not-for-profit fund that helps bring support to non-government organisations in the places that Intrepid visits. Each year the fund distributes donations from Intrepid and travellers to more than 50 fantastic organisations around the world.
How did it start?
Intrepid Travel's founding Directors, Darrell Wade and Geoff Manchester started TIF in 2002 in response to many travellers asking how they could donate to communities or organisations they had visited with Intrepid. They also really wanted to know that the money would get there and be used effectively, so Darrell and Geoff kicked off The Intrepid Foundation with AU$200,000. Since then, more than AU$3,000,000 has been raised by travellers and Intrepid Travel and distributed to over 75 organisations.
What kind of organisations does The Intrepid Foundation benefit?
Organisations working in the areas of:
What's the advantage of a traveller donating to The Intrepid Foundation?
The Intrepid Foundation is registered as a charity and 100% of donations received are donated to the local beneficiary organisations in an annual grant. Intrepid Travel contributes into the fund also and pays for all the administration costs. You can be assured that your donation will get to the organisation, be used for a significant need and make a real difference, such as pay a nurse's wage, build a much-needed classroom, pay for 50 students' school fees or help treat injured wildlife.
How can I donate?
Then best way is online, with a Visa or Mastercard credit card.
Your donation and credit card details are secure, and you will receive a receipt immediately.
Is my donation tax deductible?
If you are an Australian taxpayer, donations to The Intrepid Perpetual Fund are tax deductible. Donations to the Intrepid Community Project Fund are not tax deductible.
Can I donate to any local organisation through The Intrepid Foundation?
No. The Intrepid Foundation offers a selection of organisations that they have come to know well, and have conducted 'due diligence' checks to ensure they are well run, trustworthy and do genuinely effective and important work with the money raised.
We currently have more than 40 beneficiary organisations in over 23 countries.
Want to lie in a hammock and not move until cocktail hour? We've got a trip for that. Want to power up the side of mountain at high altitude? We've also got a trip for that. To determine what type of trip suits you best, each of our trips comes with a Physical Rating to let you know how physically demanding it is… or isn't. 1 is not at all, 5 is pretty hardcore and 3 is somewhere in between.
Intrepid adventures are for travellers with a yearning to get off the beaten track. Whether you're travelling solo, with a group of friends, or are aged 18 or 70, there is an Intrepid adventure to suit your interests and comfort level. Each Intrepid adventure has a physical and cultural grading to help you decide if the trip is right for you.
No special skills are required for most adventures, just a sense of adventure and a curiosity about the world. Even on our camping adventures no previous experience is required; our tents are easy to set up, even for first-time campers.
Good things come in small packages, which is why we keep our group sizes down. This means we're small enough to remain flexible as we thread our way through communities without intimidating the locals. On most of our trips you'll be part of an intimate group of 12-16 people, though our group sizes are on average 10 people. Our Overland trips are in purpose-built vehicles that can carry up to 24 travellers. Group sizes are displayed on each trip's overview page on our website.
For the majority of our trips the minimum age is 15. An adult must accompany all children under the age of 18. Our Overland Adventures have a minimum age of 18. Younger children are allowed on our Family trips and Short Break Adventures, but check each trip for its minimum age, which is located on the trip's overview page on the website.
Most of our trips don't have a maximum age limit, but a Self-Assessment Form is required for all passengers 70 years and over.
While we can't tell you who your leader is prior to departure, we can tell you they will be awesome. Our leaders are experts in their regions, some because they've been travelling there for years, others because they're locals and can't wait to show you their backyard. On longer journeys, or ones that travel through more than one country, you may change leaders part way through – but this just means double the awesomeness.
Although you won't be reimbursed for any portion of the trip unused, you can opt to sign off the trip if you need to leave a day or so earlier. If you let us know before travel that you'll be arriving late or need to leave before the trips ends, we will notify our team on the ground to best accommodate your requirements.
Please make sure you are happy with your group trip itinerary before booking because we are unable to change them for individual travellers. However, if you and a group of friends, colleagues or even your school would like your own personally designed itinerary, get in contact with our very talented Private Groups; they can tailor an itinerary just for you.
This is the beauty of the Intrepid style of travel: many of our travellers join because they are travelling solo and want to meet and share experiences with like-minded people.
As a single traveller, you will usually have the choice of either paying a single supplement or sharing with someone of the same gender. No single supplement is available on our Basix style adventures.
Depending on the trip style you choose, our trips are organised on a twin, triple or multishare basis. As our bookings are made well in advance, individual room requests can't be guaranteed.
You can book pre and post accommodation on a single basis; however, throughout your Intrepid trip, rooming is organised on a twin-share basis. Some trips do have a single supplement available – check a trip's overview page on our website, or their Trip Notes, to see whether a single supplement is offered. If so, please request this at the time of booking.
In our Destination pages on our website we provide guidelines on the best time to travel to major cities in each Intrepid destination. Go to the Destinations page of our website's menu, choose the relevant continent, choose the 'Explore' page for the relevant country then go to the snapshot button on the red right-hand menu.
We will try our very hardest to accommodate all dietary requirements but in some out-of-the-way places it can be very difficult to guarantee. We will let you know if there are places on your itinerary where this is the case. Please let us know at the time of booking of any food requirements or allergies and we'll pass the information onto your leader. It is also a great idea to bring a card with your dietary requirements written in the local language for those times you are eating away from the group.
Food is one of the most exciting parts of travel. There may be some familiar fare but often you'll be confronted with the new, interesting and downright weird of the culinary world but we like to think of it as an adventure for all the senses. In addition to this, our flexible itineraries often allow you to eat with the group or branch out on your own - this means you can eat to suit any budget or desire.
In some destinations it may not be wise to drink the local water. For more details, you can find country-specific information in our fantastic Destination Pages, which can be found in the red menu bar at the top of our home page, or by going to the below link and then choosing the destination you are travelling to.
Our trips always offer a bunch of exciting optional activities. When you arrive at each destination, your leader will brief you on your options and help you book them. If you are keen to plan ahead, the Trip Notes have a list of included and optional activities under each day in the itinerary. You'll also find more options on the ground, which your leader will advise you of at the time.
In most cases, optional activities are booked and paid for on the ground. This allows you the flexibility to change your mind as you relax into travelling mode and meet friends. There are a couple of exceptions to this: Rio Carnival extras, balloon safaris in Africa and our Urban Adventures. These will all need to be booked prior to departure to secure the activity. Chat to your travel agent or Intrepid specialist about this.
Can I opt out of certain activities if I want to?
Absolutely. If there are included or optional activities that you don't wish to participate in, you can do your own thing instead. The exception to this is when we are trekking or travelling from one destination to the next. Please note that if you choose to opt out of an included activity, no reimbursement can be made by Intrepid.
How does Intrepid support sustainable travel and protect the environment? Wherever we go in the world we travel with respect for the people and the environment. We're working hard to make our business as responsible and sustainable as possible, from our head office through to our trips on the ground.
How do I obtain Trip Notes/itinerary for full details of my trip?
Every trip has a set of trip notes, accessible on our website, that gives you in-depth information about all aspects of your trip. To access your Trip Notes, please visit your trip's specific facts page on our website. To get there, either enter the name of the trip (or the Trip Code) into 'Find an Experience' (which you'll find under our picture banner on the main web pages; or use 'enter your keywords' on other pages) and click on the search icon. Your trip will appear – click on the trip name and you'll be taken to its overview page. The Trip Notes are in the red menu on the right-hand side of this page – click on this and voila!
Do I need travel insurance?
Travel insurance is compulsory for all Intrepid travellers and should be taken out at the time of booking.
At a minimum, your travel insurance must provide cover against personal accident, death, medical expenses,
emergency repatriation and personal liability, with a minimum coverage of US$200,000. We also bly recommend it covers
cancellation, curtailment and loss of luggage and personal effects. You must provide proof of your travel insurance on the first
day of your trip; you will not be able to join the trip without it. If you obtain travel insurance through us you acknowledge that
you are satisfied with the level of insurance we have arranged.
How do I find out about the visa requirements for the trip I am interested in?
While we do include information in our Trip Notes about visa requirements, we always recommend that passengers check with their local embassy as visa rules can change without warning. Embassy websites in your home country will always have information about requirements, visa costs and will provide the required forms. If you are uncomfortable with the visa process, you can visit a travel agent who can arrange these for you at a cost.
How do I organise my Visa?
Please contact the relevant local embassy, or visit a travel agent, to organise your visa/s.
Do you help with Visas?
There are certain destinations, such as Central Asia and Iran, where you will need support documentation from Intrepid in order to apply for your visa. The 'visa section' of you Trip Notes will include information about what you need to send to us (scanned passports, employment letters etc.). Intrepid can't assist in the actual application of visas, but you can do this through the embassy or with the support of a travel agent.
I am concerned about the political stability of the country through which my trip will travel.
The safety of our passengers, leaders and operators is a major priority for Intrepid. With this in mind, we monitor world events very
closely and Intrepid makes operational decisions based on informed advice from a number of sources, in particular the level of the Australian
Government Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade (DFAT) travel advisory. If this advisory is at Level 4 'Do Not Travel' then
Intrepid will either cancel the Intrepid Travel-operated trip or reroute the itinerary to avoid the areas concerned.
for further details.
How safe are my belongings whilst on the trip?
While we take all the precautions we can to make sure your belongings are safe, we are travelling to some exciting destinations that are sometimes home to some pretty skilled thieves. Travel insurance is a must and a lockable bag or money belt will always help too.
What are the medical and vaccination requirements?
Medical and vaccination requirements differ between nations and as we are not medical practitioners, we unfortunately
cannot advise on this issue. Please see your local GP or travel doctor for details and advice about current vaccination requirements.
I am over 60 – do I need a medical certificate?
Intrepid does not require a medical certificate for travellers over the age of 60. However, if you are
over the age of 70 you are required to complete a Self-Assessment Form when booking your trip.
What if I get ill or injured on the trip and unable to continue?
Our leaders are trained to deal with these situations and we will endeavour to get you help as quickly as possible.
If you must leave the trip early due to illness, our local offices will help you find appropriate medical care and ensure someone at home is aware of the situation. We will do whatever we can to get you home or on your onward journey. Your travel insurance, which is compulsory on all our trips, should cover any costs incurred if illness occurs.
What is the currency in my destination? How much should I take in credit cards/cash? Can I use my credit card during my trip?
Our Trip Notes include a section on 'Spending money'. Please refer to this for an idea on budgets. Travellers' cheques are not common practice anymore so it is a good idea to travel with a credit card and ATM card, or a bank issued 'cash card' specifically for travel. Having a couple of options will assure that you are covered if one doesn't work. In certain countries it comes down to potluck if you can withdraw money. One day it'll work, the next it won't, but it will work for your friend… Go figure!
Visa cards are more widely accepted than Mastercard, particularly in Cuba where only Visa cards are accepted.
What type of luggage do you recommend I take?
On most Intrepid trips you will be required to carry your own luggage, sometimes up stairs and on and off transport. We therefore recommend you travel with a backpack.
Can I store excess luggage at the starting point hotel?
Most starting point hotels can store your excess luggage for you; however, this is at your own risk. Often a nominal fee is charged for this service. Of course, this is only an advantage if your trip is circular (i.e. returning to the same starting point).
Do I need to bring a sleeping bag?
We only have a handful of itineraries where sleeping bags are required and these are generally trips that involve camping. When we use homestays, blankets are provided but some travellers feel more comfortable with their own sleeping bag or sleep sheet. This decision is a personal preference. Refer to your Trip Notes if you are unsure whether a sleeping bag is required.
What clothes and footwear should I take on treks?
On a more physical trip, hiking boots are definitely recommended. If the physical rating is under 3, hiking boots or sneakers/runners will be adequate. Many Intrepid treks will be hiking in near freezing environments so please be sure to research the climate and weather conditions at the time of year you will be trekking and pack accordingly. There is also a packing 'checklist' in your Trip Notes.
What essential documents do I need to take?
It's important that you always travel with your current passport, visas, travel insurance and Intrepid documentation.
How can I get in touch with other people in my group before the trip?
Due to privacy laws we can't give out your fellow travellers' details.
Check-in times can vary from hotel to hotel and region to region. Generally, they are between midday and 2pm. If you do arrive earlier, you'll be able to store your luggage with the hotel and head out to explore for a couple of hours.
Can I request an early check-in?
We can't confirm an early check-in, but our sales team can assist in booking you a night of pre accommodation at the same hotel. If you don't wish to pay for the extra night, you can try your luck locally (they may let you in early if the room is free) or you can store your luggage.
Airport transfers are not usually included in your trip price. For more information on your arrival, refer to the 'Joining Point instructions' in your Trip Notes. Here, we often indicate the price you can expect to pay for a taxi from the airport to the hotel. The cost of the transfer will inevitably be more expensive than a taxi, but it is important to remember that you are paying for a private service and a trusted driver who will offer the security travellers often desire when they arrive into a foreign country.
What is the name of the hotel where my trips starts?
This information can be found in your Trip Notes under 'joining point hotel'.
Absolutely. If there are included or optional activities that you don't wish to participate in, you can do your own thing instead. The exception to this is when we are trekking or travelling from one destination to the next. Please note that if you choose to opt out of an included activity, no reimbursement can be made by Intrepid.
Intrepid has treks ranging from relatively easy to extremely difficult. The easiest way to determine if a trek is right for you is to check the 'physical rating' of the trip (this can be found on our website at the top of the trip's overview page). If the rating is 1-3, it is manageable for those with a moderate level of fitness; those trips rated 4-5 will require a fit participant who has been training in the lead up to their trip.
The beauty of travelling with Intrepid is that we encourage travellers to explore at their own pace. When you get to a destination, your leader will offer options on what you can do. Some of the group will do one activity, others will opt for something completely different while others may just choose to lie in a hammock and read a book. Your Trip Notes have more details on what your trip's itinerary and timeframes permit.
If you know in advance that you will be arriving late, please let our sales staff know. We will notify your leader, who will leave instructions with the hotel reception as to where to meet your group that night or the following morning.
If you plan to arrive a day or two into the itinerary (and our group has moved to a different destination), it will be your responsibility to 'catch up' with the group. If this happens, we will provide you with the most up-to-date information as to where your group will be and at approximately what time.
Are there western toilets available?
Some trips have regular access to western toilets while others don't – it just depends on the areas you're travelling in. As a general rule, the more remote the place the less likely you are to find western bathroom facilities.
We have a wide range of camping sites around the globe. They range from having all the creature comforts to bush camping on the plains of the Serengeti with limited facilities (though their amazing vistas make up for this). Most camps will have basic facilities at a minimum. Your Trip Notes will give you a clear indication of what to expect on your decided trip.
Will I need a sleeping bag/mat/tent?
On our Africa and USA trips we provide the tent and sleeping mats, but you will need to bring your own sleeping bag. In Australia tents, blankets, linen and towels are provided so there is no need for a sleeping bag. More information can be found in your Trip Notes.
We are only able to provide information on your joining and finish point hotels, the details of which are listed in your Trip Notes.
As Intrepid likes to support numerous local businesses, we often have a few hotels in each city that we can alternate our groups between. For this reason, we can't give you a full hotel list before you travel. At the welcome meeting on Day 1, your leader may be able to provide you with this so you can email friends and family back home with the details.
We want our passengers to be as comfy as possible so when you are headed to a hot climate, it is likely that you will either have a fan or air-con. Of course, if you are staying in remote areas or at homestays, you will need to expect the facilities to be a little more basic.
The standard of hotel depends on the Trip Style you have chosen. Basix accommodation is generally budget (1-2 star), while Original is budget or tourist class (2-3 star). On a Comfort trip you can expect tourist class (3-4 star).
Communication facilities are always improving globally. Many hotels and public places have Wi-Fi so it's usually possible to keep in touch with home every couple of days, if you so desire. In remote places (think Mali, Serengeti or the Sahara) or on treks or homestays, you will not be able to communicate as readily. Your leader will usually give you the heads up before you leave a place so you can send a quick email or two.
Phone cards are easy to get your hands on; just make sure your phone is unlocked before you travel. Or in many countries, the cheapest way to make a phone call is at an internet cafe.
We can never guarantee your phone will work as desired, as many of our destinations are out of the way and you may have limited coverage. Chat to your phone provider before you leave about global roaming and the costs involved, and get their advice on the coverage you'll receive in the places you're travelling in. Alternatively, you can usually pick up a local sim card on the cheap (just make sure you phone is unlocked!).
Some places have Wi-Fi hot spots everywhere and other places will have no coverage at all. If you stumble into the latter, take the rare chance to just sit back and get to know your fellow travellers the old-fashioned way.
In most places you'll be able to recharge your appliances at the hotel. We recommend you bring a travel adapter with you. On our Overland trips, most vehicles come with their own power supply and you should be able to recharge onboard. Be sure to bring an extra camera battery just in case.
If it moves there's a good chance you'll be riding on it. We try to use as much local transport as possible, which means travelling on everything from a camel to a train or a bus. See your Trip Notes for the specific type of transportation used on your journey.
This will depend largely on where you are travelling and on what style of trip. On a Basix trip in Asia, expect a local bus with no air-conditioning. On a Comfort or Original trip in South America, you will have reclining seats and sometimes even refreshments offered. Your Trip Notes will have details on what style of vehicle to expect, but please understand that travelling on public transport always throws us a few surprises.
On some of our Overland and Basix trips, we operate a 'kitty' system for our travellers. The kitty is a cash contribution to a central fund and overseen by the travellers and crew. It helps fund accommodation, camp meals or activities for the entire group. Contribution to the kitty is compulsory on some trips while voluntary on others – please refer to your specific Trip Notes for details. Kitty amounts published in the brochure are subject to change, but current kitty amounts can be found on the trip's overview page on our website. Please check for the up-to-date amount 48 hours prior to your trip commencement.
Yes, in most places tipping is expected. At your welcome meeting, ask your leader about the local custom and advice on how much is recommended at restaurants or with local guides. At the end of your trip, you may also choose to tip your Intrepid leader. Often the group will feel more comfortable doing this together so feel free to chat with your new mates about what you may like to contribute.

Cardiac arrest more common at ice arenas than gyms
Machines to restart a heart in cardiac arrest are often required by law in fitness clubs, but a new study found that people's hearts more commonly stop in places that are home to alternative forms of exercise.
Researchers found the employees of indoor tennis facilities, ice arenas and bowling alleys in and around Seattle were more likely to have to respond to someone in cardiac arrest, compared to those at health clubs and fitness centers.
"You've got higher site incidence at those three areas. That's kind of interesting. If we're legislating AEDs to traditional fitness clubs, shouldn't they be legislated to the others?" Dr. Richard Page, the study's lead author and chair of the department of medicine at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health in Madison, said.
AEDs - or automated external defibrillators - are portable devices that send electronic shocks to a heart in cardiac arrest, which occurs when the heart suddenly stops beating.
Approximately 300,000 people in the U.S. go into cardiac arrest every year and about 90 percent of those die, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Quick use of an AED, however, can increase a person's chance of survival.
For example, the CDC has found that about one in 10 people who go through cardiac arrest survive to be released from the hospital, but that rate climbs to one in three among those who were shocked by an AED during cardiac arrest.
The American College of Sports Medicine and the American Heart Association in 2002 encouraged all health and fitness facilities to have AEDs available, because the risk of cardiac arrest increases during and immediately after physical activity among those who don't regularly exercise.
For the new study, Page and his colleagues used registries from King County in the state of Washington to see how many cardiac arrests occurred in public indoor locations between 1996 and 2008.
Overall, there were 865 cases during that time. Of those, 16 didn't include information about their locations. Of the remaining 849, 52 occurred at fitness or health clubs and 84 at alternative exercise facilities, including bowling alleys, ice arenas and tennis facilities. The other cardiac arrests occurred in other public indoor spaces, such as community centers.
Based on those data, the researchers found that a fitness club's employees can expect to respond to one cardiac arrest every 42 years. That compares to one case every 11 years at a tennis facility, one case every 13 years at an ice arena and one case every 27 years in a bowling alley.
Dr. Stephen Meldon, vice chair of the Cleveland Clinic's Emergency Services Institute, said those facilities with higher rates may want to consider getting AEDs and training their staff in cardiopulmonary resuscitation - or CPR, which increases a cardiac arrest victim's chance of survival by moving blood around until a defibrillator is used.
"If you look at the annualized rates, they're still not remarkably frequent, but at the same time one life is worth one life," Meldon, who wasn't involved with the new study, said.
Page and his colleagues found that 83 percent of cardiac arrests at fitness and health centers were treated with CPR and publicly accessible AEDs, compared to 25 percent at the other sports facilities and community centers.
What's more, 56 percent of people who went into cardiac arrest in fitness facilities survived. That compared to 45 percent in the alternative exercise facilities and 34 percent in the other indoor public spaces.
But those rates, the researchers write in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, may not apply to the rest of the country because King County is known for its fast emergency response times and high survival rates for cardiac arrests.
Also, Page said the lower incidence and higher survival rates at fitness clubs may be partially explained by selection bias because the people at those facilities may be healthier than those at bowling alleys.
He said he can't make the decision to install AEDs in bowling alleys and other facilities, but he'd want to be prepared.
"If you look at the individual sites where these are occurring, if you are putting them in fitness clubs, you should really be putting them in other places," he said.

Help Syrian Refugees
- 1 Artículo
My name is Hala Nashawi and I am a senior at Mansfield Frontier High School in Texas. I am currently working on a senior project required for graduation relative to my program of study which is health science.
The goal of my project is to increase awareness about infection control in Syrian refugee camps. The Syrian refugees have suffered from several cases of Tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, Lice, Scabies, and the skin disease Leishmaniasis. Poor living conditions and overcrowding lead to infection spreading diseases and people who can become easily infected. Preventing infection through education and proper hygiene is important to help people recover from illness and stay as healthy as possible.
I am Syrian therefore, I am passionate about my senior project over Syrian refugee camps because seeing what is happening to my people breaks my heart. Prior to working on this project, I would hear about the spread of infections and diseases in the camps all over the Arab news, but never knew how I could help. Living in America, I have had numerous privileges that many people in the world can only dream of and I would like give back.
My way of helping the Syrians who are in dire need of medical
attention is by creating hygiene kits and a pamphlet educating
the refugees to be shipped to a Syrian Refugee camp. For my
research, I need to interview the community so if anybody would
like to answers theses questions I would greatly appreciate it.
Let's see how educated you are!!!
1.Why is it important to control the spread of infectious diseases like Lice, Scabies, Tuberculosis, Cholera, and Hepatitis A?
2. What makes refugees more prone to communicable diseases like
3. What do you think is the most effective way to prevent/control
the spread of infectious diseases in general? In refugee
4. Why is it important to educate people about infection
5. What age group do you see the most infections in? Why?
6. How do you control and prevent.....
a. TB
b. cholera
c. Lice and Scabies
d. Hepatitis A
e. Leishmaniasis
Please include your name and what country/state you are from if possible.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Billions of dollars in harsh budget cuts are hitting the U.S. government on Friday, and officials are conceding that last-minute moves by both Democrats and Republicans in Congress to soften the blow are doomed.
President Barack Obama is meeting congressional leaders of both parties just hours after the $85 billion in spending cuts kick in, after no apparent negotiations between the administration and lawmakers in recent weeks to avoid them.
Friday's meeting, the first face-to-face one since Obama was sworn in for his second term in January, essentially looks past the cuts to the next looming fiscal crisis: a possible government shutdown at the end of March.
In Washington's stormy partisan atmosphere, the annual ritual of passing agency spending bills collapsed entirely last year, and Congress must act by March 27 to prevent the partial shutdown.
Economists and lawmakers alike agree that the cuts, the potential shutdown and the country's series of fiscal crises overall are hurting the country's shaky comeback from the Great Recession, and the effects will be felt around the world. Both political parties have said the cuts — of 5 percent to domestic agencies and 8 percent to the military— could inflict major damage to government programs and the economy at large.
Obama, speaking to a group of business executives Wednesday night, said the cuts would be a "tumble downward" for the economy, though he acknowledged it could takes weeks before many Americans feel the full impact of the budget shrinking.
White House spokesman Jay Carney said Friday's talks are designed to be a "constructive discussion" about how to keep the deep spending cuts from having harmful consequences.
The spending cuts to defense and other programs had been designed to be so ugly that Washington would be forced to avoid them and come up with a better way to tackle the country's $11.7 trillion debt. But the warring sides in Washington have spent this week assigning blame rather than seeking a way out.
There is breathing room, however, for political settlement if Friday's deadline comes and goes. Many of the cuts to hit the Defense Department and other federal agencies would come in later years and could be partially offset by cuts in programs that are wasteful or behind schedule.
But the need to keep the government's doors open and lights on — or else suffer the first government shutdown since 1996 — is immediate, and it requires the Republican-dominated House and the Democratic-controlled Senate to agree.
In the latest session of Congress, the least productive since World War II, they rarely have.
Republicans are planning for a vote next week on a bill to fund the day-to-day operations of the government through the Sept. 30 end of the 2013 fiscal year — while keeping the new $85 billion in cuts in place.
The Republican plan would award the Pentagon and the Veterans Administration with their line-by-line budgets, for a more targeted rather than indiscriminate batch of military cuts, but it would deny domestic agencies the same treatment.
And that has whipped up opposition from Democratic senators. Domestic agencies would see their budgets frozen almost exactly as they are, which would mean no money for new initiatives such as cybersecurity or for routine increases for programs such as low-income housing.
"We're not going to do that," said Sen. Tom Harkin, a Democrat. "Of course not."
Associated Press writers Andrew Taylor, Josh Lederman and David Espo contributed to this report.

Will the Majority Rule?
Although Representative Al Green, Democrat of Texas, introduced the Living American Wage Law in the House last January, it is still stuck in committee. The federal minimum wage remains $7.25 an hour, just $15,000 a year for a full-time worker. The bill calls for a cost-of-living adjustment every four years to keep the minimum wage for two full-time workers at least 15 percent higher than the poverty level for a family of two adults and one child. "The best way out of poverty is to work at a living wage," wrote Archbishop Timothy M. Dolan, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, in a letter to the U.S. hierarchy. Catholic social teaching has supported a living wage for decades. President Obama also supports it; in fact, he campaigned on a promise to raise the minimum wage to $9.50 in 2011.
As the living-wage bill languishes, some states have set higher minimums and linked automatic increases to the inflation rate. In October, for example, eight states automatically raised their minimum wage. The public also supports an increase. Two-thirds of Americans favor increasing the minimum wage to $10 an hour, according to the Public Religion Research Institute.
Among religious groups, support for the wage increase is highest among black Protestants (87 percent), followed by Catholics (73 percent), the religiously unaffiliated (68 percent) and white mainline and evangelical Protestants (61 percent). Political supporters of the raise include Democrats (82 percent), independents (66 percent) and Republicans (52 percent). The two exceptions are those who identify with the Tea Party (56 percent oppose) and those whose most trusted television media source is Fox News (54 percent oppose). In light of overwhelming bipartisan support, the bill should be passed into law. But that is not likely in an election year, unless voters in favor contact their representatives without delay.
Casualties of War
Pfc. John Needham, son and grandson of military men, joined the U.S. Army in 2006 with "the whole goal of giving your life for somebody else"?his comrades?and in Iraq he was awarded the Purple Heart. But he suffered depression and excruciating back pain, crippling post-traumatic stress disorder and addiction to various drugs and vodka. Before enlisting, he had never touched a drink. In 2008 he considered suicide; and in a fight with his drug-addicted former girlfriend, he battered her with his fists. She died in the hospital. He remembered nothing.
Private Needham had fallen apart, he said, because he had witnessed "war crimes"; and when he reported them, his comrades mocked him. According to his letter in 2007 to Army officials, members of his company shot Iraqis without provocation. A sergeant killed one, removed the man's brain, strapped the corpse to the humvee hood and paraded it through town blaring warnings in Arabic. An investigation found no crimes.
In February 2010, John Needham died of a drug overdose after three operations on his back. Salon.com and CBS's "48 Hour Mystery" have told his story. His father, a Vietnam veteran, will tell it again this month when he reads the text of his son's "war crimes" letter at a Human Rights Day observance in Los Angeles. The father says the Army failed his son. He is right. John and his girlfriend are both casualties of these wars. Hundreds of unknown John Needhams are coming home. This nation owes them a more supportive welcome.
Not So Super
It is perhaps no surprise that the Congressional "super committee" on deficit reduction turned out to be a super failure. The composition of the panel, stacked with Republican no-tax promise keepers, predetermined its ultimate fate. This latest demonstration of Congressional dysfunction went out not with a bang but a muttering of accusatory whimpers.
Blame for this foreseeable failure cannot be shared equally by the two parties. Democratic negotiators offered deep spending cuts in entitlement programs, while Republican counterparts remained smugly hamstrung by an apparently unbreakable pledge not to raise taxes, perpetuating Grover Norquist's uncrowned reign of error.
But the end of this latest farce may be positive for two reasons. First, automatic triggers are set to kick in next year that will cut federal spending across the board. Second, they will also end the inequity of the Bush-era tax cuts. This failure of the committee may also set the stage for more serious negotiation over the coming year.
Perhaps then Congress will finally end the pretense that the nation's fiscal imbalance can be resolved by deeper cuts in the nation's barely adequate social safety net. Rational rethinking of entitlement programs is welcome, as are suggestions for squeezing greater efficiencies out of existing social programs; but restoring federal revenues through increased taxes and an end to the fiscal immunity granted the Pentagon budget must be part of any responsible fiscal package.
It started I suppose with Joe Towle, SJ at Xavier High School and continued when I went South to learn my trade in the late 1960's. I will never, ever forget being referred to as a "N...r loving Papist". And I must admit that at the time I wasn't actually sure what the term Papist meant!
I have lived long enough to see the world change and it seems I am living long enough to see it change again. This time not for the good.
We Americans seem to have been convinced that we live in a land where everyone is equal. But we do not. We have largely replaced the social contract we once had with a Me First contract and Catholics go right along with it. My Pastor does not speak about social justice for fear of "offending people". I usually reply that perhaps people need to be offended but to no avail.
Today, in these United States, the wealth ratio is similar to what it was in 1929 and not too different from what it was in Czarist Russia. Imagine that. Grover Norquist has stated that he would like the country returned to the policies of 1925. No Social Security, no SEC non FDIC, no medicare or medicaid no food stamps and lord knows what else we won't have! Imagone that! I suppose that we will all be living in company housing and paying rent in company chit.
Americans had better decide who we really are. Is this really a diverse country that believes in morality and ethics. Or do we just pay lip service to that and really believe that its a man eat man world with no holds barred?
I wonder what Jesus would say!
Great editorial by the way

It was a big summer for superheroes, and even though this DC Comics adaptation wasn't the best-reviewed of those movies, director Martin Campbell ("Casino Royale") provides genre fans a lot of fantastic sights to look at.
Ryan Reynolds trades on his humorous image - and a dramatically refined physique - as Hal Jordan, a test pilot who inherits a very special ring that makes him a guardian of the universe. Of course, there's a villain (Peter Sarsgaard) for him to deal with, as well as a love interest (Blake Lively, "Gossip Girl"). Tim Robbins, Mark Strong, Angela Bassett and Jay O. Sanders also star. *** (PG-13: AS, P, V) (Also on Blu-ray and Movies on Demand)

We're total suckers for backyard weddings around these parts. They can be anything you want them to be...from casual to glamourous, and everything in between and we love them all. And right now we happen to be head over heels for this super romantic fete which was held at the bride and groom's new home in Connecticut. Sent into us by the lovely Sara Wight Photography, this gorgeous soiree is sure to knock your backyard wedding loving socks off. Click here for more!
Click here for the FULL wedding!
From the Bride... Allen and I met waiting for a cab in the rain, outside the Mercer Hotel in New York. We shared a 15 minute ride, asked five questions each, and five years later in December 2011, Allen proposed in the back of another cab. Being the romantic he is the entire proposal was based around the ten-day weather report to ensure it would be raining. During this time, I moved my life from London to New York, and we took two of those years to build our dream home in Roxbury, Connecticut. It seemed very fitting to be married under the oak tree at the bottom of our garden, planting trees as part of our ceremony and concluding the celebrations with cocktails, dinner, dancing, a life band, DJ and pool party. The attention to detail was extremely important to us, wanting a very personal wedding that had a combination of elegance, romance, fun and humor. And the most important place to start in setting the tone for the entire weekend was the invitation.
The three-sided invite was a collaboration between the cartoonist Jamie Oliff and Mr Boddington's Studio, and it proved to be a big hit with all our friends and family. Knowing I'd be out the country for four of the six months leading up to the big day, I started with an image board, a visual reference point for all the vendors that was particularly invaluable when collaborating with the very talented florist designer Loretta Stagen. Key vendors were sourced and booked locally by the end of January, and our wedding planner, Christine Eck, was brought on board in April, with us primarily communicating through Dropbox and email. The color scheme was based on pastels and grays to create a very soft, dreamlike and timeless feel. And in stark contrast, there was the yellow cab on top of the cake and yellow schools buses for the shuttle service. For personal touches, we had three trees inside the tent with escort cards hanging from the branches; sunset images taken from treasured trips as the table names; parasols and personalized fans to keep the guests cool; a collage board of photos of Allen and me when we were younger; and message cards for the guests. And let's not forget the midnight snacks and pool attendant, who oversaw the safety of many a swimmer and left-over underwear!
The most important piece of information we had in the planning was a wedding budget spreadsheet given to us from a friend who also had their wedding at home. It was quite an eye opener on how much tents, toilets, lighting, generator and so forth were going to cost, but it proved to be invaluable when it came to the negotiations. The downside of having a wedding in your home is not only the added costs but the extra amount of work. The upside is that we get to look out of the kitchen window every morning and reminisce on what was for us, the happiest day of our lives thus far. Thank you to Sara Wight, our photographer, who really captured the weekend so artfully.

Fluke and tautog tips from the experts
Last week we shared striped bass and tuna fishing tips from expert anglers and captains who appeared on stage with George Poveromo at the Saltwater Sportsman's National Seminar Series. Here are some fluke and tautog tips from local and national experts.
Fluke fishing tips
·Best place to catch fluke is where you normally fish for striped bass as they both like current, structure, squid, silversides, etc. Try fishing in your favorite striped bass spots and you are likely to catch fluke too.
·In Spring, fluke tend to be in low water, they like feeding on sand eels.
·Captain John Rainone of Lil' Toot Charters said, "Start shallow in spring and move to deeper water as the water warms."
·Captain Rainone's favorite places to fish for fluke include many spots around Block Island… the North Rip area, the northeast side of the Island as well as the south side. Other spots include Cow Cove, Clay Head and the mouth of New Harbor. Off the center wall at the Harbor of Refuge is a great spot too.
·Wind and current should be going in the same direction, ideally start from shore or the high spot and outward toward deeper water
·Use pink squid rigs if squid is in the water, some like to use whole squid in the spring
·Look for bait pods and you will find fluke, just as you would when striper fishing
Tautog fishing tips
·Tautog usually show up in the spring when the water turns about 50 degrees
·Many use soft baits in the string, like worms or grass shrimp and fish in shallow water
·Expert angler "Crazy" Alberto Knie said, "If you get multiple taps the tautog is sensing the bait is not natural. After the first tap I let the rod drop, say the word "barracuda", and then I cross its eyes setting the hook."
·Captain John Rainone said, "Keep your rig simple, one hook and a sinker. Two hooks only add additional hardware that can get caught on structure."
·George Poveromo said, blackfish often take advantage of the slower stages of a tide to feed. The slower stages of a tied also enable anglers to effectively fish difficult structures.
·George Poveromo introduced a simple tautog rig designed to fit in-between structure and rocks… The "knocker-rig" can be used on a 30 pound braid main line with a fluorocarbon leader, an egg sinker (2 oz.) slides on the fluorocarbon that is tied to a circle hook. The sinker and the hook tangle less frequently because they work their way into structure together … and here is the best part… you can attract the fish by tapping on the structure with the sinker and bring it right to your bait… thus the name "Knocker-Rig".
Important recreational fisheries meetings

Safe ice for fishing and skating
At press time, there were no "Safe Ice" postings on the Department of Environmental Management's website regarding the three State Parks they monitor including Goddard, Lincoln Woods and Meshanticut State Parks. DEM says it takes five to seven days of temperatures in the low 20 degree range before ice may become safe. And, this is no guarantee that it is safe. Call your local city and town to check local ice conditions or DEM for the State Parks they monitor at 401.222. 2632. Visit DEM's Parks website for an ice safety guide at www.riparks.com .

Question and comment from reader Paul Johnson
Question: "Hello Dave, I really enjoy your column… (and) have a question and comment for you. Every day recently you can see several large commercial fishing boats within in stone throw of the rocks off of Narragansett. I assume they are getting herring and squid. Are they under any regulations or can they just take all the bait fish out of that area? No wonder the game fishing as died off Narragansett. I think a couple of the boats are pair trawling…"
Answer: I responded to Paul's e-mail this weekend… Yes, there were pair-trawlers off Narragansett this past week fishing for herring (we think). Bob Ballou from DEM's Marine Fisheries Division was addressing the issue, exploring with his legal group what could be done short term, and long term DEM may explore regulating via legislation.
Captain Dave Monti has been fishing and shell fishing on Narragansett Bay for over 40 years. He holds a captain's master license, a charter fishing license, and is a member of the Rhode Island Marine Fisheries Council. Your fishing photos in JPEG from, stories, comments and questions are welcome… there's more than one way to catch a fish.

The Senate Facilities and Operations Committee unanimously approved both actions last night. The committee also voted to release both a draft report on the investigation of Sen. Pam Roach and a new, final version. Both reports are set to be released today.

NEW YORK (AP) — Kristine Opolais got to bed at 5 a.m. Saturday after singing her first "Madama Butterfly'" at the Metropolitan Opera and going out for dinner.
Just 2½ hours later, the 34-year-old Latvian soprano was awakened by Met General Manager Peter Gelb, who wanted to know if she could take over a televised performance of Puccini's "La Boheme" that afternoon after Anita Hartig took ill.
Given the crazy question and unusual hour, Opolais said no thanks.
Five minutes later, she changed her mind.
Opolais on Saturday become the first singer in the Met's 131-year history to make two major role debuts within a day.
When the final curtain came down, Opolais covered her face and dropped to her knees to the stage, overcome with emotion during the 5-minute ovation. In addition to 4,000 people at the Metropolitan Opera House, her Mimi was seen live by an estimated 92,000 in movie theaters in North America and 110,000 more in 32 nations in Europe, Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean.
"I still think it's not reality," she said.
The wife of incoming Boston Symphony Orchestra music director Andris Nelsons, Opolais had not sung Mimi since performances at the Vienna State Opera in April 2013.
When the phone first rang, she didn't answer it. But it kept ringing and ringing and ringing. And when she first spoke to Gelb, she had trouble believing he was serious.
"I was in a shock. The first seconds I couldn't even speak," she recalled. "It's just impossible for anybody."
After she hung up, she started to think.
"Some voice inside me said, 'Why not? It's a chance, and you just said no. Maybe you should take it?'" she said.
Once Opolais agreed, Gelb and the Met staff scrambled to bring J. Knighten Smit, the stage director for the revival of Franco Zeffirelli's 1981 production, to the house for a walk through. Resident costume designer Sylvia Nolan was on the subway when she got an email on the cast change at 9:37 a.m. and went to work along with assistant costume shop head Elissa Iberti, first draper Regina Schuster and seamstresses Arlina Wilks and Svetlana Terentiev to get dresses ready for Opolais.
While Opolais had blonde hair and Mimi refers to "miei capelli bruni (my dark hair)" in the first act, there was no time to make a wig, so the staff decided she should go on stage with her natural locks.
"This is the kind of thing that makes our life exciting and actually makes the Met exciting," Nolan said. "It is a moment when we get to swing into action and do what we do best because we have people here with extraordinary expertise. They not only have skill, but they have speed."
Clutching rails in the third act as the dying Mimi, Opolais displayed heartbreaking acting and a shimmering voice, though perhaps not at its strongest because of the previous night's exertions. Prompter Joan Dornemann and conductor Stefano Ranzani helped her get through along with her Rodolfo, tenor Vittorio Grigolo.
Met director of archives Robert Tuggle said the Met had never before had company role debuts in consecutive performances.
Opolais' husband was in Switzerland and couldn't listen to a web stream because he was busy rehearsing Sunday's Claudio Abbado memorial concert with the Lucerne Festival Orchestra.
Opolais made her Met debut in January 2013 in Puccini's "La Rondine" and is scheduled to sing Puccini's "Boheme," ''Tosca" and "Manon Lescaut" at the Met in future seasons along with Dvorak's "Rusalka."

LAKEWOOD — It was an early-season arm injury suffered by Evergreen quarterback John Cassell that resulted in junior Jack Curtis stepping into that role and moving Cassell outside to wide receiver. But the move certainly has paid dividends the past two weeks.
The tandem hooked up twice Oct. 26 at Trailblazer Stadium for first-half scores of 18 and 37 yards as Evergreen posted its second straight victory and second shutout of the season 45-0 over host Alameda.

WILMINGTON, Mass. — Zdeno Chara said after Bruins practice today that he is unlikely to play Tuesday against Los Angeles, but beyond that he's just day-to-day.
The captain isn't the only injured Bruins player to worry about, though.
Gregory Campbell was injured blocking a shot Saturday night, according to head coach Claude Julien. Campbell didn't practice today and was in a walking boot when he showed up at Ristuccia Arena for treatment.
If Campbell can't play, the Bruins could re-insert Daniel Paille, who returned to practice today after doctors feared he suffered a concussion last Thursday. If Paille, who is day-to-day, can't come back, the Bruins would need to make a call-up.
Steven Kampfer projects as Chara's lineup replacement. Boston's captain said he's felt better over the two days since he was injured Saturday in Columbus.
