Eldorado Del Rey, aka Mic Walker, the mutton-chopped leader of The Ruckus, likes living downtown. He likes the pedestrian life. He likes buying his groceries at funky markets along the Main Street mall. But mostly, the longtime Sun Studio employee likes the fact that he's still living in the city that rock built.
"I'd just gotten to this point when I really thought it might be time for me to find another city," Del Rey says, his resigned voice heavy with the unmistakable tone of hard luck, Memphis-style.
"And then I moved downtown," he says, "and it was like I was living in a completely different city."
The singer, songwriter, and guitar player takes off his black, gold-trimmed sunglasses and replaces them with a pair of black gold-trimmed prescription glasses. "I have some rules," he says. "I don't go out [downtown] on the weekends ... too many people mess with me."
There can be no doubt, Eldorado Del Rey stands out in a crowd. Gangly, hairy, dressed in the immaculately considered wardrobe of a garage-rock hero, and riding a pimped-out single-speed bike with ape hangers and flames, he looks like a cross between Viva L'American Death Ray's Nick Diablo and a Mojo Nixon impersonator: charming, self-effacing, and self-consciously absurd.
"I know why you're here," says an old codger entering The Green Beetle, a sports bar on South Main, and making a beeline for our table. "You're here for Elvis week, ain'tcha?"
"No, I live here," Del Rey answers politely, grinning and shaking his head as if to say, "See what I mean?"
In 2003, it was Del Rey's fusion of Delta blues and indie rock that caught the ear of Joe Perry. The Aerosmith guitar player was attracted to Del Rey's bluesy grit and signed The Porch Ghouls, Del Rey's pre-Ruckus group, to be the first band on his new Roman Records label. Unfortunately, the Ghouls' album, Bluff City Ruckus, didn't perform particularly well, and while on tour with Kiss and Aerosmith, the Porch Ghouls fell to pieces. Shortly thereafter, much of Del Rey's life followed suit. His marriage dissolved and old friends wouldn't give him the time of day. Since then, he's been tinkering with his sound, trying to keep a band together, and moving further and further from the blues.
"I've always just wanted to play rock-and-roll," he says in defense of the Ruckus' latest, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, which reaches back to the Delta for a few numbers but is built around electronic beats and futuristic lyrics.
After the Porch Ghouls broke up, Del Rey recorded the first Ruckus album, Planet of the Vampires, backed by The Immortal Lee County Killers. It was Del Rey's trashiest, raunchiest effort to date, more in the spirit of The Oblivians than the Porch Ghouls. But the Killers had other gigs to play and couldn't get too tied up in a side project.
Del Rey started jamming with natural-born bluesman Jason Freeman, who cut his teeth fronting The Bluff City Backsliders.
"We were working together at Sun, so we started talking, and we were both into the exact same music," Del Rey says. But after playing for a while with the Ruckus, Freeman joined up with Amy LaVere in Amy & the Tramps.
Today, the Ruckus is a three-piece featuring the inventive guitar leads of a youngster who calls himself Matt Danger and beats dropped by DJ Natty Batty.
"I was always having trouble finding a drummer, and I always thought it would be cool to have a pretty girl up there with us cueing samples," Del Rey says.
As one might expect, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? sounds like a record made by an artist in transition. It lacks the aggression of Del Rey's previous roots efforts, but it never quite embraces its gothic potential either. However, the band has never been tighter or more original, Del Rey's voice has never sounded more confident, and fans of Phillip K. Dick and J.G. Ballard will certainly appreciate this homage to the masters of smart sci-fi.
"I like transitions," Del Rey says. "A lot of times, it's the transitions that really stand out, like with the Beatles' Rubber Soul and Revolver. I'm not comparing myself to the Beatles. I'm just saying that sometimes transitions can be a good thing."
El Dorado & the Ruckus play a CD-release party for Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? Friday, August 25th, at the Hi-Tone Café. Doors open at 9 p.m.; admission is $5.

DeSoto — This Sunday, the Uptown Downtown DeSoto concert series will present a very special event in the Corner Theatre.
Make that TWO very important events.
The concert series alternates classical concerts with jazz performances and Sunday is classical music's turn—and they are bringing in a star.
The concert will feature Demarre McGill, the newly appointed Principal Flute of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra in one of his first solo performances. At the piano will be the equally distinguished Steven Harlos from the piano faculty at University of North Texas.
The other important happening at this concert will be the dedication of a fine Young Chang concert grand piano that was donated to the City of DeSoto.
The piano was donated by Greg Emory. It belonged to him and his life partner, Edward Gonzales, who recently passed away. Gonzales was a fine pianist and performed in many local venues and even the White House.
This generous donation comes from both Mr. Emery and the family of Gonzales and will be dedicated as a memorial to Gonzales on Sunday. In celebration of their generosity, the DeSoto Arts Commission will sponsor a complimentary wine and cheese reception at the concert.
It takes place on Sunday, Sept. 27 at 3 p.m. at the DeSoto Corner Theatre located in DeSoto Town Center at 211 E. Pleasant Run Road. Tickets are $10 and available at the door (cash only) or online at ArtsDesoto.com. For more information, please call 972-230-9648.

The cigarette-sparked fire that raced through an Acushnet home with unusual speed in January has revealed two likely fire hazards in modular homes: flammable foam adhesive and a large void between the first and second floors.
The cigarette-sparked fire that raced through an Acushnet home with unusual speed in January has revealed two likely fire hazards in modular homes: flammable foam adhesive and a large void between the first and second floors.
If further investigation supports the results of an inquiry by Fire Chief Kevin Gallagher, the new knowledge will have national significance for building codes.
The chief makes a good case.
He took a sample of adhesive foam from another modular home being assembled in town and sent it to the fire science laboratory at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Similar adhesive foam is used throughout much, if not all, of the modular-home industry. It provides a tight hold that reduces damage sustained in shipping.
WPI tested the speed of ignition, heat release, thickness of smoke, and loss of mass while burning — all of which measure fire danger. The foam's heat exceeded the level considered hazardous by almost 25 percent.
Chief Gallagher also discovered, after reviewing 17 Acushnet house plans, that modular homes commonly have a 20-22-inch void between the first and second floors, a result of the prefabricated "boxes" that arrive on a home site ready for assembly. The void creates a space where fire can spread rapidly across a building, which is consistent with what the homeowners reported in the January fire.
Right from the start, the fire was unusual, because although it started with a cigarette on the porch, the fire spread across the house before any smoke entered the rooms. A woman woke to a strange feeling of heat in the house, but at the time, the smoke detectors sensed nothing.
The chief now suspects the fire was raging below her, in the floor, as she slept — a truly frightening thought.
Chief Gallagher took his evidence to state regulators, who have been tight-lipped about the ramifications.
The state Board of Building Regulations and Standards, which has jurisdiction over the relevant parts of the code, sent a written query to the third-party inspectors who sign off on modular homes before shipping, and asked them to forward the request to manufacturers. They want to know, among other things, if manufacturers can use an alternative adhesive.
Thomas Riley, code development manager for the board, displayed what could only be described as an abundance of caution — that is, with respect to the industry. Many building materials are flammable, he said, and the board needs to get a better understanding of the modular industry before it can take any action.
Information-gathering is critical, but we would hate to see officials who are supposed to be protecting public safety, including the safety of firefighters who enter burning buildings, display so much caution that they fail to take timely action. At this stage, we can only trust that the board will pursue the matter diligently.
Manufacturers (located mostly in Pennsylvania and New Hampshire for the Massachusetts market) might not cooperate without pressure, considering the effect the investigation could have on their business.
State Fire Marshal Stephen D. Coan applauds Chief Gallagher's proactive stance, and we couldn't agree more. Mr. Coan, too, is cautious, but if the chief's theories are correct, he says, the state will take action. The first step, the fire marshal says, is to make sure the Acushnet house complied with existing code.
If it did, and the chief is right, the building code must be amended to require a less flammable adhesive and a breakup of spatial voids. Both would slow the spread of fire, and both should be small hurdles when human life is at stake.
Nationally, the problems identified in Acushnet seem virtually unknown, putting Massachusetts on the cutting edge of the issue, Mr. Coan said.
With housing costs formidable in any economic climate, buyers choose modular homes to make the most of their money. They don't expect to risk their lives and property.
Chief Gallagher could have just gone home to dinner and forgotten about the fire at 5 Archers Way, but instead, he took the initiative to improve public safety. No matter how the inquiry turns out, Massachusetts — and perhaps the nation — will be better informed about a troubling safety concern.
Let's hope regulators take that concern seriously.

Joyce/Corrigan Take Top Honors in Colorado Mixed Open - Dave and Susan Luebbes Capture A/B
February 14, 2013
Denver, CO
Open draw (xls) Open Draw (pdf) A/B Draw (xls) A/B Draw (pdf)
Joyce/Corrigan Take Top Honors in Colorado Mixed Open
After surviving a close 2 setter vs the mother/son duo of Susan and Jay Schwab, Claire Joyce and Curt Corrigan proved too steady in the final defeating Anne Koo and Riley Meyer 6-3 6-1.
Dave and Susan Luebbe Take the A/B Bracket
Having travelled all the way from Bozeman, Montana, the Luebbes had no problem with the single digit temps rolling thru the draw without dropping a set. In the final, Art Thomson dawned his Bronco headwear hoping it would help not only the local NFL favorite vs the Ravens (that didn't work), but also help slow the Luebbe's momentum. That didn't work either. Luebbe's roll 6-1, 6-3.

In 2014, a warm spring and the earliest bloom in 25 years set the stage for our earliest harvest to date to begin at Firesteed's Erratic Oaks Vineyard on September 13th and one week later at our winery's Estate Vineyard on Hwy. 99W. Several other sites around the Willamette Valley contributed fruit to this blend and picking continues there thorough the first week of October, under nearly-perfect weather conditions.
Out 2014 Pinot Noir continues the Firesteed tradition of a consistent fruit driven style, achieved with gentle techniques in the cellar and imagination in the vineyard. The grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks with selected yeasts propagated from cellars in Burgundy, pressed during the last days of fermentation, and racked as soon as the wine finished malo-lactic fermentation. A touch of barrel-aged wine was included in the blend to round out the flavors and enhance complexity.
Lively and expressive, this wine's aromas of raspberry, cinnamon, blueberry and flavors of cocoa powder and ripe cherries encourage second sip before flowing in the soft, lingering finish.

On Tuesday's O'Reilly Factor on Fox News, political pundit Bill O'Reilly claimed "the American media overwhelmingly favoring Barack Obama over Mitt Romney" would lead to slanted news coverage that "will give the President about 3% or 4% of the popular vote" in the general election.
According to MRC, O'Reilly referred to studies that demonstrated the media "favors the more liberal candidate, and has for decades."
A recent sampling of news stories from US national print outlets, TV broadcast and radio transcripts covering the 2012 election does not support O'Reilly's claims, however. In news stories and broadcast transcripts analyzed over the last three months, Republicans are quoted at a 44% higher rate than Democrats a new study found. Additionally, the ratio of positive to negative coverage was 17.1% more critical of Obama than Romney according to media watchdog group The 4th Estate.
But O'Reilly sees clear bias from the left, arguing on his program that the electoral impact of the media being in the tank for the Democratic Party "gives the Democrats a major advantage because their agenda, whether it's bashing Mitt Romney or promoting the President, will be covered far more extensively than the Republican agenda."
"Second, stories that make the President look bad will be played down in the national press. While anything Mitt Romney does will be described as a gaffe, a mistake or just plain dumb.
" O'Reilly referenced a discussion with media critic Bernie Goldberg, who told Fox News viewers: "Look, obviously journalists are Barack Obama's most loyal base. They will not abandon him and they've got too much invested in him."
Goldberg claimed that 86% of US network news coverage of Romney's recent gaffe-filled overseas trip focused on his missteps and the angry reactions of stunned politicians rather than on the substance of the trip itself.

Loanee Bastos eyes long-term Roma deal
New signing Michel Bastos is determined to join Roma for the long haul after completing his move to the Serie A side.
The Brazilian winger joined the capital club on loan from Al Ain for the rest of the season this week and will link up with coach Rudi Garcia once again after playing under the Frenchman at Lille.
Roma have the option of signing the 30-year-old on a permanent basis when his temporary deal ends and Bastos hopes to extend his stay at the Stadio Olimpico.
"I've stayed in touch with Garcia ever since I left Lille." Bastos said at a press conference on Thursday.
"He was an important person for me who helped me a lot.
"Garcia being here did influence my choice - that and the fact that Roma is a great club. I want to stay here for several years."
Bastos is willing to be versatile as he attempts to help Roma build on a promising season so far.
He added: "My position? I can play full-back, in midfield or attack. I want to play football and win with this team.
"I'm here to help my new team. I don't know where I'll play - that's up to the coach to decide
"I'm working hard to get fully fit again as soon as possible. I think it will take another 10 days or so."

Not much is going on here besides just relaxing and having fun (when Tim isn't working). We are leaving to go to Utah on Sunday which is our one year anniversary! Then we leave for PA on Tuesday! We are so so excited for this! We will be gone for 2 weeks! This means we'll have tons of time with family and friend! While we are back east we are also going to Washington D.C. for two nights to celebrate our belated anniversary. We went to D.C. for a day, almost two years ago right before we got engaged and had a blast so we decided to go back. :-)
Well that is what's going on as of now with our life! I'll be sure to post some pictures of our 7 week summer vacation from school!

When your kids come to you and tell you they want to quit — whether it's soccer, debate, guitar or ballet — it's pretty disappointing. Let's face it. You think about all the time and money you and your children have invested in those activities. You're proud of them and their accomplishments. Maybe you even entertained ideas of a future career path or scholarship opportunities for their extracurricular achievements.
I remember wanting to play the guitar when I was 11 years old. I thought it would look cool and that maybe I would end up on stage with a little practice. After spending many Saturdays window-shopping with my dad at music stores, he finally broke down and bought me a used guitar along with lessons.
I practiced until calluses formed on my fingertips, and my parents would listen appreciatively. After six months, I learned to play Otis Redding's "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay," but I also learned that I didn't have as much passion or talent for the guitar as I thought I would. I told my dad I wanted to quit. I didn't really have time for it anymore (because 11-year-old girls are very busy).
The reality, of course, was that I had tried playing guitar and realized that there were other things I enjoyed more, learned more quickly, and could become more passionate for through practice.
In other words, I tried to play the guitar and found out I wasn't very good at it.
Did my dad know I wouldn't be good at the guitar when he signed me up for lessons? No doubt he had some idea. I had also struggled with piano lessons, and the church choir teacher once told me it would be OK if I just mouthed the words instead of singing out loud.
But when I was growing up, my parents always looked for what interested my three siblings and me and what we were passionate about, however big or small. We knew that none of us needed to be like the others. We felt like our parents appreciated us for our uniqueness.
Appreciating Your Kids' Natural Talents
People need to find what resonates with them. That might mean changing an activity, or it might mean sticking with one.
When I spoke with a man named William, he told me about his daughter Terry. She was a highly ranked high school swimmer who often placed in the top spot at swim meets. Her coaches predicted that in another year, she would break the school record and qualify for state.
One day, Terry told her father that she wanted to quit the swim team. William was shocked. He wondered why she might be feeling this way: Was she not getting along with the coach or her teammates? Was swimming taking time away from her new boyfriend? Were expectations of her potential too high? Was she simply burned out?
William didn't want Terry to regret a quick decision. He knew that she felt a responsibility to her team and that she would be disappointed if she didn't fully develop her swimming talents. He knew that she didn't want to let her father, herself or the team down. So he asked her some questions and gave her some things to think about. But he let her make the decision. And it worked. Terry stayed on the swim team and broke the school record the following year.
Kids need to learn that even with talent, it takes practice to get really good at something. But if your children are not learning, engaged or improving at an activity, it might not get better. If they don't have the talent and they don't like the activity, quitting might be a good decision.

Sourav has taken the right decision: SrikkanthOctober 7th, 2008 - 7:00 pm ICT by IANS
Bangalore, Oct 7 (IANS) Chairman of selectors Krisnamachari Srikkanth said Sourav Ganguly's decision to retire from international cricket is a right move.Srikkanth said it will allow the former India captain to play with free mind against Australia in the Test series.
"I had a chat with the other four selectors and we feel that it's a right move. He wants to end his career on a high note and win the series against Australia. He wanted to play with a free mind against Australia and now he can do that," Srikkanth told reporters after Ganguly announced his retirement here Tuesday.
Srikkanth hailed Ganguly as an extraordinary cricketer.
"He has done so much for Indian cricket. He has brought laurels to us, both as a captain and a cricketer. Let us not forget that he is the best captain India has produced."
The new selection committee picked Ganguly for the first two Tests against Australia after he was left out of the Irani Trophy squad, triggering speculation of his retirement.

1. Voyage / Paralysis
2. These Yellow Sands
3. Mitochondria
4. Hulks
5. Capsizing
If any band can claim to have kick-started the current UK Prog revival, it is Diagonal. The band's self-titled 2008 debut album threw open the gates for a wave of like-minded bands to follow, attracting a heap of critical praise and picking up a nomination for Best New Band in the 2009 Classic Rock awards for good measure.
And then, just as suddenly as they had arrived, Diagonal disappeared. The departure of founder members Alex Crispin (Vocals/Keyboards) and bassist Dan Pomlett forced Diagonal into an unexpected hiatus. Diagonal needed time to regroup, to re-build. Original guitarist Nicholas Richards switched to bass and the band slightly stripped down their sound.
The Second Mechanism is the sound of that band reborn, ready once more to propel listeners on a journey to the outer reaches of rock music. But this is a more focused, more intense, more powerful Diagonal; a gleaming amalgam of Passport, Jaga Jazzist, T2, Dungen, Magma, Bo Hansson and Black Sabbath, forged in the crucible of experimentation.
The normal rules do not apply here; there is only the obsessive, unashamed spirit of eclecticism and no-holds-barred musical excess. Thunderous and hypnotic; euphoric and brutal, Diagonal is uncompromising in its approach and fearless in the creation of music which combines Prog, Jazz, Psych, Krautrock and Metal into an intense and explosive mixture which seems to belong to neither past, present nor future, yet somehow sounds like all three.
The album starts off with "Voyage / Paralysis," bringing a great mix of guitar leads and harmonization with the wind instruments, along with a very laid back bass line and groovy drums which made for a very mellow time. The bass quickens pace half way through and is met by some synthesizer which made for an interesting feel. An epic saxophone solo is near the end of the track. "These Yellow Sands" has more harmonizing of the saxophone and guitar and I don't know what it is about that combination but it is just too amazing sounding and also relaxing. The faster harmony parts of the two instruments is really amazing and the heavier progressive bit a little over half way through is really awesome with the chugs and saxophone creating a really beastly sound.
The groove from the bass, guitar and drums with the accompanying saxophone is very trance inducing on the next track, "Mitochondria." The bass riffs are very catchy and there is more incredible harmony from the guitar and saxophone. I especially liked the faster technical diddle the two did. ""Hulks" is the first track with vocals, which were really well done. This is a very gloomy feeling track with the backing vocals and the way the saxophone flowed. The bass lines and lead guitar, as well as keys also add to the overall eeriness this track brings. The last track is "Capsizing" with a soothing intro of bass with a catchy drum beat and accompanying saxophone. Some interesting spastic sax bit follows which made for a good time. This may be one of my favourite tracks just because how each of the instruments plays with the other and makes for a very catchy nine minutes of progressive jazz perfection.
Diagonal has brought me something I have not heard from since Trioscapes released their album. With a mix of guitars, bass, and drums and jazz instruments harmonium, saxophone, and clarinet, Diagonal create a very interesting yet epic concoction of jazz-infused progressive metal. I highly recommend this album if you want something more easy to listen to as this is more jazz like than metal like. Although I say this they are still heavy in their style, but I mean that this album can be enjoyed by all!

manroland COLORMAN e:line in operation in Kempten, Germany
Tuesday, April 09, 2013
Press release from the issuing company
Full speed ahead: at the start of production at the Allgäuer Zeitungsverlag in Kempten, Germany, 280,000 regional advertising supplements were printed by the COLORMAN e:line. The advertised food items looked mouth-watering – an indication of the excellent printing quality of the 64-page coldset web press from manroland web systems.
Since January 2013, the world's first COLORMAN e:line has gradually taken up full operation in Kempten. Prior to that, the eleven-member service team of Allgäuer Zeitung and manroland web systems had perfectly coordinated the project stages since delivery of the press in mid-2012. Not even the adverse weather could dampen the enthusiasm of everyone involved. This also included the Prime Minister of Bavaria, Horst Seehofer. He was one of the first to visit the publishing house and the new COLORMAN e:line. The keen breakfast newspaper reader summed up his impressions of the innovation: "The future is happening in Bavaria." As head of the Free State of Bavaria, he was especially pleased by the cooperation between the Bavarian companies. While Seehofer was not the only one to be impressed by the brilliant colors of the freshly printed Allgäuer Zeitung newspaper, he also emphasized the importance of newspapers' editorial quality. Allgäuer Zeitungsverlag is consistently working on comprehensive quality as the basis for its competitiveness. This is why the COLORMAN e:line has replaced two competitor presses from 1998. The company Allgäuer Zeitungsverlag invested 18 million euros in new pre-press, printing, and distribution technology. "This is definitely a great amount of money", said Managing Director Markus Brehm. "We have to invest to remain technologically ahead. Those who benefit from the improved quality and the quick, flexible production are our advertising customers and readers, as well as our staff."
During the preliminary meetings, manroland web systems internalized the wishes of Allgäuer Zeitungsverlag and then implemented them technologically. Today, it would be correct to say that for manroland web systems and the customer, the COLORMAN e:line is "the" press of the future. Josef Aumiller, Sales Manager Germany at manroland web systems, says: "The aim was to replace two machines by a single one with a comparative print/time ratio, which requires quick, flexible, and stable print production. This is accomplished by short makeready times and high printing and operating quality, which allows us to deploy our staff efficiently." For Wilfried Sutter, Technical Manager of Allgäuer Zeitungsverlag, the accelerated makeready times are especially crucial in everyday operations: "One of the great advantages is the fact that makeready times are reduced to approx. three minutes per regional issue. This used to take twenty minutes to half an hour on the old press." After all, the publisher must produce eight regional issues of the Allgäuer Zeitung every day on workdays. Staff were trained up front and are excited about working on one of the world's most advanced newspaper presses. Their list of favorite features is topped by the automated plate logistics, which vastly facilitates work processes. Its central element is the fully-automatic, robot-assisted APL plate changing system that dramatically accelerates makeready times and thus production. The operator controls the plate changing process from the central control console. Here, the plates are placed in transport baskets. They are then transported to the APL robot with a home-built lift to the upper printing couples, where they are changed. This eliminates the top operating level and the operator no longer has to run up and down stairs. Sound-proofing on the press's printing units is another feature that is greatly appreciated by staff.
The exterior of the COLORMAN e:line is particularly distinguished by the use of new and intelligent materials. Instead of sheet metal, which is limited in terms of design and touch, synthetics with a resistant, easy-to-clean surface are used. The creative illumination design highlights and delineates the press functions. The result is a revolutionary printing press design that Markus Brehm fully appreciates: "Today's presses must be able to do more than just print, they must be "catchy", with an impressive exterior." This can enhance sales – first potential customers have already contacted the printing company. The interior traits of the printing system are also up to par. "The COLORMAN e:line consists of a coherent system," explains Markus Brehm. "In addition to the printing technology, this also includes excellent accessibility, for example to the roller-wash-up devices." The ergonomic advantages are in line with the expectations of the Kempten-based company: "We want to create a homogenous working environment for our employees, coupled with a high quality of work." The COLORMAN e:line is equipped with four printing towers in a blanket-to-blanket design, four reel splicers, and two folders. A third ink form roller improves the print quality. Many automated measuring and control functions ensure quality, efficiency and a stable printing process. With a web width of 1,400 mm and a cylinder circumference of 1,020 mm, the press will produce copies of the Allgäuer Zeitung in Rhinic format with up to 45,000 cylinder revolutions per hour. Advertising journals and contract printing orders are added to this during the day. It is possible to print up to 90,000 newspaper copies per hour at a printing speed of 12.75 m/s.

WORLD champion Lewis Hamilton insists he wants his successor-in-waiting Jenson Button to win this weekend's British Grand Prix.

Hamilton concedes his own McLaren's poor performance leaves him only the slimmest chance of recording back-to-back victories at Silverstone on Sunday.

So the Englishman would like to see his compatriot experience the unique joy of winning on home soil – and is so confident runaway title leader Button will triumph that he may even stake some cash on it.

"From my perspective it will be great if Jenson wins. I'm egging him on, and I guess I should put some money on him," said Hamilton.

"It will be a proud moment to have a fellow Brit win, and I'll be able to understand exactly how he is feeling. His lifelong dream is to win the British Grand Prix at Silverstone and I'm sure it will be more special for him than his win at Monaco last month. I know it was for me."

Practice gets underway today for the last grand prix at Silverstone for the foreseeable future, and Hamilton for one is looking forward to returning to the scene of his proudest moment.

"Last year was incredible. Every time I went past the grandstands I could see out of the corner of my eye the fans waving flags and cheering, even though it was soaking wet, raining non-stop," he added.

"It was the most fulfilling race of my whole life, and the amount of support was very special. Unfortunately, this year I've just not got the car."

Button, meanwhile, has played down suggestions his dramatic improvement this season is solely down to his Brawn GP car.

"When you are in a football team you don't say how much was the goalkeeper worth, how much was the defender, the striker," said Button, who has won six of this year's seven races. "It's a team effort, and that's what Formula One is."

An anti-water charge protester is set to lodge a complaint against Gardai after she was thrown towards a bollard.
Fiona Healy, 33, from Baldoyle in Dublin, was grabbed and forcibly removed by officers after heading towards Enda Kenny's car at an anti-water charge demonstration at Dublin's Mansion House on Sunday.
In a video that surfaced on Facebook, gardai were shown pulling Fiona away from the Fine Gael leader's vehicle and apparently flinging her towards a bollard.
The clip cuts away at the moment of supposed impact but Fiona is shown on the ground at the bollard a second later.
Speaking today, she said she planned to raise the matter with the Garda Siochana Ombudsman Commission, which deals with complaints about gardai.
She told RTE Radio One she was "quite badly bruised" on the hip.
She said: "I possibly will be following up about it today, I just have to get my head around everything first."
Fiona denied that she will be deterred from protesting in the future.
She added: "Oh god no, oh no. I'd be up there this morning if only for all this, I would have been back up in Donaghmede yesterday helping them out, only for this.
"I'm out on the streets every morning helping stop the installations - but doing it peacefully.
"I've never been arrested, I've never been injuncted.
"I'm a peaceful protester. I'm only doing this for my son. I need to have a future for my son and the way I see it is our country is being sold off bit by bit to the highest bidder."
It comes as furious anti-water charge protesters, following a demonstration at the weekend where Tanaiste Joan Burton was trapped in her car for two hours, jumped on the Taoiseach's car and banged on the bonnet and roof last night in Co Sligo.
Scuffles broke out between around 400 demonstrators and gardai as Enda Kenny arrived at a Fine Gael meeting at the Sligo Park Hotel.
A shaken Mr Kenny said it was lucky that no one was injured during scuffles that broke out as his car pulled up to the Sligo hotel.
Footage also emerged from Saturday's protest in Jobstown of the Tanaiste being hit by a red object, thought to be a water balloon, during that angry demonstration.
It emerged last night that families will NOT be charged for water they use until after Christmas in a major U-turn by the government.
The coalition will later this week announce that charges will be suspended for October, November and December.
Taxpayers were told that water charges had started from the first day of October and that the first bill would arrive at the end of January.
This will be a measly three month reprieve for cash-strapped householders who have refused to pay.

THE PEOPLES NATURAL GAS COMPANY, PETITIONERv.COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA, WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION APPEAL BOARD AND HARRY S. KEITH RESPONDENTS
Appeals from the Order of the Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board in the case of Harry S. Keith v. Peoples Natural Gas Company, No. A-77382.
Richard R. Riese, with him Ralph T. DeStefano, Thorp, Reed & Armstrong, for petitioner.
Richard J. Russell, for respondent, Harry S. Keith.

Author: Macphail
[ 65 Pa. Commw. Page 120]
The Peoples Natural Gas Company (Petitioner) has appealed from two orders of the Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board (Board). The first appeal, filed to No. 13 C.D. 1981, is from a Board order affirming a referee's grant of workmen's compensation benefits to Harry S. Keith (Respondent) and denying Petitioner a credit against its workmen's compensation liability. Petitioner appeals only the latter Board determination. The second appeal, filed to No. 736 C.D. 1981, is
[ 65 Pa. Commw. Page 121]
from an order denying Petitioner's request for a rehearing before the Board for the purpose of presenting additional evidence on the "credit" issue. The two appeals have been consolidated for consideration by this Court.
Respondent had been employed by Petitioner as a Customer Service Man-A for approximately 25 years when he suffered a heart attack on November 19, 1977. Respondent filed a claim petition on September 27, 1978*fn1 and, after two hearings, a referee concluded that Respondent had met his burden of proving that he had suffered a compensable injury. The referee granted Respondent compensation benefits for total disability effective November 20, 1977. At issue in the appeal filed to No. 13 C.D. 1981 is the referee's eleventh finding of fact:
Under a contractual [sic] agreement with the Company, Claimant was paid full pay for eighteen weeks (18) from the date he last worked on November 18, 1977, and then he received half pay for the rest of the 52 weeks. Defendant is entitled to a credit against future payments of compensation for benefits/wages he received while he was off work.
The Respondent appealed to the Board challenging, inter alia, fact finding No. 11. The Board, on appeal, concluded that the credit had been improperly allowed by the referee, but included in its opinion the following statement: "Parenthetically, had there been a collective
[ 65 Pa. Commw. Page 122]
bargaining agreement which had been pleaded and which specifically had been determined to read 'that workmen's compensation payments required by law are not in addition to but are included in the sick pay allowance', this Board may have found otherwise." Petitioner appealed the Board's order and also subsequently filed a petition for rehearing with the Board to enable it to introduce into evidence the collective bargaining agreement by which Respondent was ...

New Delhi, Dec 23:
Finding no common ground on the issue of dual control or cross empowerment that deals with assesses jurisdiction, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council's 7th meeting that came to an end on Friday raised grave concerns about its April 1 implementation date while Finance Minister Arun Jaitley saying that he was trying his best.
"I am trying my best (on deadline of April 1). I don't want to hasten the process of discussion and don't want to delay the implementation," Jaitley said at a press briefing after the Council meet ended.
The Finance Minister however said: "There was no issue raised on dual control today as we were working on legislations."
The drafts of Central GST (cGST) and the compensation law have been mostly approved with the only portions relating to dual control being left out, he added.
Jaitley said that the two principle issues that still remain before the Council are Integrated GST (iGST) and cross empowerment.
"In iGST, definition of territory of states is pending. And the division of authority between assessing authorities of Centre and states is pending. The two issues will be taken up together at the next meeting on January 3-4," he added.

Ireland is finally entering a proper spring, with daylight stretching across the hours and the hillsides erupting with daffodils. We have to use the last of our beetroot and celeriac that lasted us through the winter, so when I take the bus to Dublin for my day job, I'm bringing plastic containers of borscht or whatever dish I made the night before.
We are also getting the first salads and herbs of the year, although the chickens like them as much as we do. We are also seeing the first of Ireland's spring crop of nettles and dandelions, and when we have a spare hour or two, in the evenings or on weekends, The Girl helps me gather them – nettles for soup and beer, dandelions for fritters and wine. We also found the first edible mushrooms of the year, which also became my lunch the next day.
The hawthorn trees' confused tangles are sprouting green shoots, perfect for salads. The blackthorns are usually difficult to pick out in the hedgerow amid all the other trees, but now – for a couple of spectacular weeks – a confetti of small white flowers marks them clearly amid the largely bare trees around them. The Girl and I need to travel a few miles down the canal this weekend and mark each blossoming tree – how far it is from a landmark and in which direction – in order to remember their location and gather their sloes this autumn.

New Chair appointed for Film Archive
Clare Morrow, former Chair of Welcome to Yorkshire and previously Controller of News and Programmes at ITV Yorkshire, has been appointed as the new Chair of the Yorkshire and North East Film Archive.
Clare succeeds Colin Philpott, whose term of office has expired after 10 years during which time the Archive has undergone a period of successful development, including the incorporation of the North East Film Archive into the Yorkshire Film Archive charity, which now cares for collections of over 50,000 films (and video tape) documenting the moving image heritage of both regions from the earliest days of filmmaking to the present day.
Clare brings more than 30 years of experience to the YFA, through a career in television and as a non-executive director. She is currently a non-executive director of both Bettys and Taylors of Harrogate, and the Rugby Football League. Previously she was a non-executive director of the Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, as well as Network Manager of the Broadcasting and Creative Industries Disability Network.
Clare first encountered the Yorkshire Film Archive during her 15 years at ITV Yorkshire, where she was responsible for Calendar News and a regional programme slate which included entertainment, current affairs and sport. She was Executive Producer of the popular 'The Way We Were' series, which was based on the stories behind some of the Yorkshire Film Archive's most treasured amateur film collections. It was a simple formula, with themes and scenes familiar to everyone – holidays in the Dales, weddings, working lives, sporting moments, that were recounted by the people who made, or featured in, the films themselves – and it worked. Scheduled to run as a three programme pilot, 'The Way We Were' series ran for more than four years, with over sixty programmes produced.
Clare says: 'I've been a supporter of the Archive now for many years, and am delighted to take on the role of Chair. I firmly believe these collections should be recognised as one of the most important visual records of life in our region over the past 130 years. These are not feature films, they are films made by professionals and amateurs alike who wanted to document the people, places, events, cultures, traditions and communities across the region, and they now reveal an extraordinary record of our times.
These collections are so important because they have so much meaning to people. We have an almost universal desire to see our lives, and the lives of our parents and grandparents, captured through moving images. Seeing our towns and villages twenty, fifty or eighty years ago, our workplaces, homes, cars, sports, weddings, holidays – there simply is no more powerful medium than the moving image to convey the collective and individual sense of people, place and identity.'
Colin Philpott, a former Head of BBC Yorkshire and former Director of the National Media Museum, has been Chair of the YFA Trustees since 2006 and oversaw the merger with the North East Film Archive in 2012. Colin's term of office expired last year but he stayed on until a successor was appointed.
Colin said 'I am delighted that Clare has agreed to take on the position as Chair of the Yorkshire Film Archive. She will be a tremendous asset and I know that I speak on behalf of the whole Board in welcoming her to the new role. I have known Clare for almost twenty years and I know she will bring fresh insights to the challenges that face the Archive. I have thoroughly enjoyed being involved with the Archive over the past decade and I'm delighted that we have been able to grow the collections, increase opportunities for people to see and enjoy the collections and am also pleased that we have maintained the financial resilience of the organisation through difficult times.'
Sue Howard, Director of the Archive, says ' For the past 28 years, the Yorkshire Film Archive, now also encompassing the North East Film Archive, has been working to find and preserve our regional film heritage, and most importantly, to make it accessible for everyone to see and enjoy today. What started as a small charity, with a collection of around 25 reels of film housed in a tiny office, has now grown into one of the UK's leading regional film archives, respected nationally and internationally for its commitment to finding, preserving and creating access to its collections of some 50,000 titles for the widest range of audiences – onscreen and online.
None of this could have happened without the support of an experienced Chair and active Board of Trustees, many of whom have seen the Archive grow over many years. Working with the Chair has been, and will be, key to our success. We have so much to be proud of in terms of what we have already achieved in preserving our regions' film heritage, and I very much look forward to working with Clare as we continue to grow the collections, and make them accessible for everyone to see and enjoy, far into the future.'

Cabinet Member: Americans are Children
This drives me crazy. Ed Morrissey has the story:
The last we heard from Steven Chu, Barack Obama's Secretary of Energy, someone had to explain to him that oil policy fell within his "domain." Now that Chu has apparently mastered what exactly energy means, he now wants to act as a parent to recalcitrant Americans who stubbornly insist on making their own choices in life. The Wall Street Journal reports on Chu's attitude towards the role of government, and especially his condescending attitude towards the governed:Continue reading>>>

Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague across the way for his diligence. As I said before, it is important that these questions be put to the minister for answer. In fact, the type of behaviour that the member across the way is demonstrating is in fact why he is sitting in that corner.
Late shows are meant for a purpose, and that is to provide answers to specific questions that are given. Yes, there is some latitude to asking additional questions, but the disrespect that is shown to members by that member across the way this evening is absolutely reprehensible.
I have committed to find some answers for him, but I must remind him, and I am doing that through you, Mr. Speaker, that the questions put to me have been answered this evening. I will continue to answer the questions put before me, but any disrespectful behaviour will not be tolerated by me and should not be tolerated by the Chair either.

Tobacco smoking – enough of the puff
It is no surprise that the smoking of tobacco has decreased significantly from a generation ago, amid targeted and widespread programs to deter its use. Indeed, in Australia we seem to view our stringent tobacco legislation and divestment movements as huge wins for public health. However, what may come as a surprise is that our smoking rates are still roughly one in seven people, and it continues to cause more deaths than alcohol and illicit drugs combined.
As a young person, I'm astounded when I see friends and other young people lighting up. On the one hand, it's probably good that myself and others have such a cultural distaste for this deadly habit, but on the other it's tragic to see people beginning something that they will inevitably struggle with for years.
Like many medical students, I've spent time in respiratory medicine and seen patients dying of cancer, infection and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, where people describe their existence as "slowly drowning". There is simply no safe level of tobacco consumption. It shocks me that this harsh reality, not just the threat of cancer, causes more than 15,000 Australian deaths per year and yet young people continue to pretend they're invincible.
Interestingly, in the US and UK, smoking rates are now dropping to comparable or even lower levels than in Australia, where our plain packaging and advertising laws are very strong. On a pure price disincentive, we still have some of the most expensive cigs in the world, yet perhaps we are starting to see diminishing returns on smoking rates. Clearly, more needs to be done.
Earlier in the year, AMA President Dr Michael Gannon gave out the "Dirty Ashtray Award" to the State most behind on their smoking crackdown. The Northern Territory, 11-time recipient of that award, has a rate of smoking of more than one in five, with comparatively lax laws regarding smoking in pubs, clubs and even schools. We cannot sit by while children and young people are indoctrinated into a culture where smoking is tacitly accepted.
Some advocates for smoking reduction have looked at the possibility of e-cigarettes as a tool for cessation or alternative. We must be wary of these products, none of which have yet proved to be useful as cessation tools, and may in their use and marketing make smoking more socially acceptable.
Many universities have some form of a tobacco-free policy available on their websites. However, many of these are not enforced or incomplete, meaning that smoking and particularly passive smoking continue. As medical students, we call for more stringent tobacco-free policies to reduce prevalence and change attitudes.
While universities are a great target, we need also to ensure that smoking-related disease does not become a disease of the poor. There is a significant gap in smoking rates between the highest and lowest economic quintiles (8.0 per cent and 21.4 per cent respectively). Although this gap is slowly closing, we need to pursue methods of education and intervention that promote equity and work for the people most at risk.
At the patient level, it's important for doctors to remain vigilant, to work with smokers to quit. We acknowledge this is not easy, it is often a long and relapsing process, but ultimately it cannot just be ignored. Thankfully in medical school we are taught some of the tools of motivational interviewing, but we can't afford complacency.
Complacency cannot be afforded at the Government level, too. The Council of Australian Governments several years ago made the target of 10 per cent daily smokers by 2018, a rate we may just fall short of. Continued efforts, including banning in public places, availability of support to quit programs and widespread public education need to continue. This is not a fight we can say we've won just yet.

18th November 2012
Sleepstation's Dr Anderson and Dr Jason Ellis will be featured sleep doctors on the BBC's upcoming show "Goodnight Britain". The two-part series presented by Sian Williams, ventures into the bedrooms of five of Britain's most tormented sleepers, discovering a range of conditions including extreme snoring, insomnia and night terrors.
Through the use of high-tech night vision cameras, the sleep experts observe the secrets of the patient's sleep problems first hand. But the investigations don't stop there: the five contributors are also subjected to a night at the Goodnight Britain Sleep House, where every toss, turn and snuffle is monitored using state of the art equipment whilst they sleep. Only then do the causes of their night-time traumas fully come to light and our experts can begin to devise a treatment plan that just might work.
The sleep doctors provide expert advice and practical solutions to real-life participants, helping them to address their sleeping problems and, hopefully, dramatically improve their lives.

As promised on twitter a few weeks back, there has been a slight change to some of Matt-Erials activities. But, don't worry, not all of them. Due to not having a colour printer at my new school (in Turkey) I am now making black and white, photocopiable board games, dominos and worksheets for my classes. So I thought I would share them so you can use them with your classes to!
I know from teaching many Chinese students, that most students learning English can often struggle with differentiating between he/she. And they definitely struggle with the possessive adjectives (his/hers/she/he/they).
To practice using the possessive adjectives, once you have taught the students what they are, why not play a board game?
All the students have to do is roll the dice and land on a square. Once they land they can choose the correct possessive adjective from the choice or produce the adjective to finish the sentence. Once they pass the striped square (next to start) they receive one point and continue on. They can choose to take a short cut, but the shortcut isn't kind at the start or end, so caution is advised!

It is not very often that I get to be completely by myself.
Often it is because I have Boogs with me, which I love.
Sometimes it is by choice because the time that I can get away,
I choose to spend it with girlfriends.
Plus, there aren't a lot of fun things to do by yourself.
However, there is one thing that I truly enjoy when I am by myself.
It is just so nice to walk around and see all of these great old items.
Wondering what their journey has been,
where they have traveled, what they have seen.
I also love looking for things to use in the house.
To decorate with or repourpose.
Not that I don't already have a ton of projects going on,
that I haven't touched in weeks, I still pick out more things to do.
Like these:
Last year we grew herbs in our back yard
and we really enjoyed that. It was calming.
Haven't started this year (which means we probably won't)
But I want to have the herbs in their own container
rather than gathered in two or three large containters.
I want to hang them on latice and lean against the fence.
They were a great buy, 3 for $1!
Next item I found was a total steal!
Normally windows are about $20 to $50 a pop.
This one was with a bunch of other windows.
I had been looking for a window that
I like and so was a girlfriend, so we bought them together.
$7 a piece!! Can't beat that.
It was the only one with all the panes of glass still in tack.
I need to clean it, very carefully, but I Love it!
Great color and style.
Now, What to do with the mantel?
This is where you come in.
Give me some suggestions on what to do.
The fireplace is really deep
(which is very annoying because there is a lot of space to fill)
I want to stack and stagger things up there but what?

Samone is the leader and organizer of the newest community group in the area, the North County Community Group. She took time out of her schedule to tell us about her story with her son, Mykell, and why starting this group has been so important to her.
Hello! My name is Samone Yancy and I am honored to be the new North County Community Group leader. My husband and I have two boys together who are 8 and 6, and I have two step children who are 19 and 17. Mykell is our 6 year old who has Down syndrome.
I never thought in a million years that I would be a mother of a child with ANY disability. I was 28 when we became pregnant with Mykell, and at 4 months we were told that there was a possibility that Mykell would have Trisomy 21. This was devastating news for my husband and me. Besides the ultrasound testing we decided not to do any further testing, but we prayed about it and made a decision that we will love our baby no matter what. Months later on our EXACT due date and on his grandmother's birthday, July 15th, Mykell was born. I remember his features were very mild and my first thought was "THANK GOD he does not have it!" (And at this point it was not confirmed by the Doctor) But after the first day I remember looking at him and I said to myself "My baby has down syndrome". I have to be honest and admit that the first few months were hard, and while I did love my baby, I was consumed with thinking about his future and wondering how people would treat him. This made me cry, cry and cry some more. Thankfully, by the grace God and the support of my husband, I got stronger and focused on loving my baby and PRAYING for his future.
When Mykell was first born as I looked into support groups in my area, I noticed they were not consistent. One of my goals is to have a consistent support group in the North County. Another goal is to bring awareness to the community, as well as support and education to families and friends of individuals with Down syndrome. I am also a woman of great faith, I am an encourager and I plan to personally be there for the moms as they go through the different phases of having a child with Down syndrome. My last goal is to bond, plan fun activities and participate in DSAGSL events together. I already feel that this will be an AMAZING group and I am extremely excited about it.
The first North County Community Group meeting will be April 11 at 6:30pm at Victory Resource Center in Ferguson, MO. For more information contact Samone at 214.222.7047 or email@example.com.

This article originally appeared at The WHIR
A GoDaddy reseller and web design company is suing GoDaddy for use of the "It's Go Time" slogan, according to a report Friday by DomainNameWire. The lawsuit was filed on Tuesday in Springfield, Ill., where the plaintiff is based.
According to the report, GoWeb1, owned by plaintiff The Easy Life, LLC, had emailed newsletters to its GoDaddy account manager using the It's Go Time slogan since at least October 2011, two years before GoDaddy trademarked it. The It's Go Time slogan appears on its website in a screenshot from Aug. 19, 2012.
GoDaddy applied for the trademark on intent-to-use basis, and the slogan appeared in its advertising as of September 2013, when the company launched a new SMB-focused brand strategy and TV commercials. The plaintiff first notified GoDaddy of its "prior rights" and the infringing content by letter on Oct. 8, 2013.
The slogan also appeared in GoDaddy's Super Bowl 2014 commercials, including one featuring Danica Patrick.
Currently, "It's Go Time" appears on GoWeb1's website, displayed prominently on the home page and again at the top of the page near its social buttons and support number. Though, as DomainNameWire points it, it could have "ramped up this use after GoDaddy filed its trademark application."
"As a result of Plaintiff's excellent reputation, the services offered in connection with the IT'S GO TIME mark are widely recognized as emanating from Plaintiff and are very well received among purchasers of such services," the lawsuit said.
"[GoDaddy's] services significantly overlap the services offered by Plaintiff in connection with the use of the IT'S GO TIME mark." GoWeb1 has been a GoDaddy reseller since 2006.
The Easy Life LLC is looking for "equitable relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages, and attorneys' fees and costs incurred by reason of Defendant's wrongful conduct."
In addition to damages, the plaintiff is asking the court to order GoDaddy to recall its advertising and block access in the US to any of its websites that use the It's Go Time slogan.

Product Description
How a Young Man Rescued a Million Books and Saved a Vanishing Civilisation.
In 1980, an entire body of Jewish literature – the physical remnant of Yiddish culture – was on the verge of extinction. Precious volumes that had survived Hitler and Stalin were being passed down from older generations of Jewish immigrants to their non-Yiddish speaking children only to be discarded or destroyed. A twenty-three-year-old student named Aaron Lansky set out to rescue the world's abandoned Yiddish books before it was too late.
Outwitting History is an adventure tale filled with unforgettable characters and told with the exhuberence of a man whose passion led him from house to house, country to country, collecting treasured books and heartfelt, often hilarious stories of the vibrant intellectual world these older Jews inhabited. Lansky and a team of young volunteers shlepped books from various attics and basements, demolition sites and dumpsters, while schmoozing with their owners, who insisted on feeding them a little nosh – gefilte fish, kasha, blintzes, latkes, kigel – before handing over, one book at a time, their beloved literary heritage.
When Lansky started out, experts believed that fewer than 70,000 Yiddish-language books still existed, he has now saved over 1.5 million books. As he takes us along on his groundbreaking journey, Lansky explores the roots of the Yiddish language and introduces us to the brilliant Yiddish writers – from Mendele to Sholem Aleichem to Issac Bashevis Singer – whose lasting cultural relevance is evident on every page.
Aaron Lansky shares the humour, tenacity and love for the written word that unites Jewish immigrants with everyone who cares about the future of great literature. And he enables us to see how an almost-lost culture is the bridge between the old world and the future.
"But now and again a quite unexpected book draws me in. The latest to trap me is 'Outwitting History' by Aaron Lansky… The book is the story of how he travelled the country saving a vast and rich culture which was about to be swallowed up… His visit to a Borscht belt hotel in the Catskills is worth the price alone. It's very funny, very rewarding, and you don't need to be Jewish to enjoy it."
Simon Hoggart, 'The Guardian'
"Outwitting History is the charming and compelling epic about how Lansky and a few volunteers saved Yiddish books from extinction. Lansky recounts his adventures on the road… Outwitting History inspires longing for an era that valued books over bookshelf space."
'The Times'
"There's just one word to describe the feat at the heart of Aaron Lansky's enchanting book Outwitting History… chutzpah… His account of saving 1.5 million books (and counting) is an adventure story to delight bibliophiles."
'Daily Mail'
"Aaron Lansky's book is an adventure story about the survival of Yiddish… fast-moving, funny account of his 25-year mission… a very exciting read… Lansky, horrified that the People of the Book are discarding theirs, becomes a missionary for a lost culture… A whistle-stop journey to the end of the Jewish world."

I am visiting Dublin for the first time. I'll arrive there tomorrow (24th) and leave on thursday (27th) and I'll have my camera with me as always. It's a business trip, but I'll have some time of my own in the early mornings and in the evenings.
Could someone give me some tips where should I definitely go to shoot photos? Are there some special places that I should visit for example at the time when the sun is rising or setting?
