Looking for resort recommendations for the above locations. Thanks in Advance,
Posted 30 September 2017 - 02:09 PM
Resort recommendations are tough, not everyone values the same things, but for what it's worth here are mine. In Malapascua I went for the diving and didn't care about the resort so much (but found it to be very good) while in Dumaguete I went for the resort and didn't prioritize the diving (but still had a great time).
In Malapascua I've stayed at Evolution and would certainly recommend it. I chose it primarily for the dive operation, and found them to be excellent - very professional, conservation-minded, and scientifically informed DMs. Other well-known resorts have a lesser reputation, which you can find on ScubaBoard. The rooms are ordinary, the bar and restaurant right on the beach with very good food and drinks. Overall its a super friendly place that you can feel good about supporting. The only other resort we visited there was Tepanee. It is certainly beautiful, but not primarily a dive resort although you can dive from there.
In Dumaguete, you probably want to be in the Dauin area as it is closest to the best sites including Apo island. Atlantis and Atmosphere are the go-to recommendations by most divers, with the best reputations for their dive ops. A newer place tht is getting a good buzz is Acqua Dive. I have stayed at Antulang and loved it - most "rooms" are actually 1 or 2 bedroom villas with totally private pools and patios on the cliff. But it is not a dive resort and you need to arrange for transport and boats to the sites which the resort will help you with.

For Malapascua, hands down, Evolution.
Dumaguete would be Atlantis.

If you are looking for something nice but less expensive than Atlantis, I really enjoyed Pura Vida in Dumaguette. Great staff and dive operation.

Thanks guys, this has been a big help getting started on my research.

Malapascua, I would go either with Exotic which are the pioneer diving the threshers (had the pleasure to share the same boat with the great Doug Perrine 15 years ago) or Sea Explorers because they are consistent all over the Visayas and from divers feedback better than others at spotting critters.
One information about Evolution : they don't allow you carrying and using a muck stick, and that's a definite no go for me, 20 years experience diving in the SEA area it's probably the only operation I've seen bannning sticks. They probably can't understand that it's device that allows not touching nor unexpectedly lying on the ground, anyway that says for me a lot about the operation sanctimonious approach. Won't see me...
Dumaguete, I really enjoyed Mike's Dauin beach resort, small operation located very close to the best macro spots, nice guides and less expensive than the pompous Atlantis. Pura Vida wich is also run by Sea Explorers would be my second choice.

Zero Punctuation: The Sims 3
Pages PREV 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 NEXT
That was the funniest ZP in a long time, mostly because it was true ;)
The sims....Euagh.
Sorry you got dumped, Yahtzee. That's rough, buddy.
Ah Yatzee, what a legend. This is his best in a while.
haha inappropriate menstruation jokes
Does Yahtzee have a cold or maybe a sore throat? it sounds like he did get better soon.
It was funny but it wasn't the high quality of his other reviews
while he clearly hates everything the game stands for - don't we all - I can't help but feel he may enjoy it a bit
This is so true. Simulation games just allow the worst of us to take pleasure in evils they can't engage in here, in real life. Such games can feed a psychological problem really quickly.
You know what's worse than The Sims for this, though? The prison mod for Counter Strike: Source. In this mod, people take roles as either cops or prisoners, and the prisoners have no guns at the start. They have to do what the cops say or get shot.
Eventually they have to kill a cop, take the gun, and somehow take out his friends. But that never happens. The whole scenario almost always becomes an excuse for people to live out really bizarre sado-masochistic fantasies. As far as my experience goes, the prisoners never manage to win, because the cops play very dirty.
The reason why this is worse than Yahtzee's current punching bag? There are real humans at the end of the suffering, even if the suffering is fake.
I totally agree. Women are evil.
Jesus H Christ.... Yahtzee can spew vitriol on the male sex any review he wants, but when he unleashes some hilarious "hatred" on women, we get people bitching and moaning? I am not going to drag this out, because I can easily solve the problem with this statement: youre all overreacting hypocrites.
As for the review, I loved the "repeating the same routine you are supposed to use your personal time to escape from" comment. I played the first sims game and never touched that sack of shit again for that exact same reason. Why spend your hours of free time playing a copy and paste repetition of the previous title, when even the first Sims was little more than a jumped up tamagotchi? There are enough people in the world wiping the arses of screaming little monsters without people resorting to virtual versions of the same task.
I like the review, funny as usual, but I disagree. I'm a guy and I love the Sims 3. It's a brilliant game, and I don't think it's evil... much anyway.
There was a social experiment like that. This guy had his university student take on the roles of cops and prisoners in a mock prison for an approved experiment.
yay, i love cider to! ref= 2:23 and 2:59 and 3:17 lolol
yahtzee for prime minister... at least then there wont be any niceties to cover the truth of politics!
go ZeroPunctuation!
they seem to get better every week.
OH GOD NOT THE SIMS!!! I played it for two seconds then I got extremely bored and felt the sudden impulse to throw the game disk out the window to let the neighbors skeet shoot it to death.
I'm assuming 2 and 3 are roughly the same.
The Sims 3 I feel will only appease those who LOVE to design everything which is certainly not me. It took me an HOUR to create ONE sim!
Amen to that. Unless these same whiners want to whine about, The Simpsons, King of Queens, Two and a Half Men, Rules of Engagement and the vast litany of shows which present a view of men as idiotic beer swilling sex crazed beasts with barely a coherent thought in their head then the whine comes across as the typical "I want to whine about you, but you can't whine about me" pop-feminism. For hecks sake, the last century has been one long female whine and even now that the vast majority of inequalities are easily explainable without reference to sexism the whining still goes on. Anyway, don't get me started on this.
I thought the review was pretty hilarious and Yahtzee was obviously being facetious about women. I hated how true it was. I too find myself sucked into a deadening routine on the sims, I too find myself wasting hour after hour on a game that can't honestly be described as fun. Nice work Yahtzee!
I though I was the only one who thought that I was servicing the sims games.
It's because he's right and they are trying to defend themselves.
Yahtzee you douchebag! How could you? You've angered me before but now I draw the line!
What do you MEAN there are no Trilby hats!?
this wasn't really a review at all, more of a EA and women are bad rant
epic fail
The show is getting a bit boring now. I think it's time to put ZP to sleep and then maybe smother him to death.
Woah... you just made be depresed, never thought someone like Yahtzee could speak like that... it's sad for crying out loud!
Nice review Yahtzee, the sims 3 its a clone from 1 and 2 and is one of the most boring game ever. EA is a pretty hard compagny to trust since theyre games are all shit and all they do is make money off sports fanatics with their sports games and the sims for the women.
I hope you won't review Overlord II, cause it looks pretty much the same as Overlord 1, and we should all know that Overlord is a ripoff from Pikmin.
The conduit is going to be a failure because its on the Wii.
By the way, i took on that offer of yours and downloaded Psychonauts. The characters are hilarious and the game is pretty fun, reminds me of Banjo-Kazooie.
I love the Sims 2. I need to get around to buying the 3rd one.
You rock Ben! Your the greatest thing since cola and menthos or was that the sims?
Did Yahtzee have a cold or something?
You have
But then again, i'm a man so... I have too
"This may sound a little bit hysterical, but The Sims is probably the most evil game in the world." Well, alright then! I guess I'll stay away from it. Good review.
you what? uh-oh...
oh look a 50-foot flaming iguana of death!!! *runs away to parts unknown*
I read the first two pages of posts, and have yet to read a comment from someone who's played the game, or seems like they've played it.
For those bitching that the Sims 3 is a bad game because of its genre or its formula, there are lots of us out in the gaming world (including myself) who think that, for example, first person shooter games suck ass, etc. So your complaint is completely pointless because it's based on personal opinion.
Both Yahtzee and John Funk neglected to mention the additions to some of the already-existing content from Sims 2, such as the addition of another life stage (young adult), or the many many more options you have when interacting with other Sims and objects. Some big updates were made, like being able to explore and interact with the whole town and everyone in it. You'd probably have to play Sims 2 in depth before playing Sims 3 to notice some of the smaller changes, but they're there, and fans of the game like myself are enjoying their addition.
As for the customization options, like being able to completely make your house and furniture any colour you could possibly want it, fans think it's neat to be able to recreate people you know and places you've been to. I heard some of the first things fans were doing was recreating the sets of their favourite TV shows.
If you like the game, great, but if not, there's no need to rip it. Sims fans don't go around ripping the Halo series or the Mortal Kombat series because they think it's stupid.
lol, nice ending XD
mmmmmm, spam sandwich. This game sucks for the same reason Grand Theft Boring F&*@ing Life does. Why simluate real life in a video game. Real life sucks and thats why we play games in the first place.
For his complaints about Ghostbusters, why not simply buy it on steam? 29.99

The World Baseball Classic, a 16-team tournament sanctioned by the International BAseball Federation (IBAF), will feature players from around the world competing for their home countries and territories for the first time ever. The games will be played from March 3-20 at sites throughout the United States as well as Tokyo, Japan and San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Attached is the list of players announced today and the countries and territories for which they have agreed to participate, if selected. The list does not include players agreeing to play for teams competing in the Round 1 Asia Pool (China, Chinese Taipei, Japan and Korea). Those players will be announced at a later date.
Federations competing in the World Baseball Classic must submit preliminary player rosters by January 17, 2006. Additional players agreeing to participate will be announced as they are confirmed.
"This impressive list demonstrates that players share great enthusiasm and excitement for the World Baseball Classic," said Baseball Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig. "New and old fans throughout the world will have the opportunity to enjoy our great game and see many of baseball's best players competing in this historic event."
Don Fehr, Executive Director of the Players Association said, "This outpouring of support for the World Baseball Classic speaks on many levels. It reflects the players' interest in the expansion of the sport globally. It suggests the players are keen to compete against each other in this kind of tournament. And, perhaps most importantly, it virtually guarantees that the inaugural World Baseball Classic will be an exciting and entertaining event for fans around the world."

I got a few samples of the Giorgio Armani Mascara, Eyes to Kill a few weeks ago.
I can't remember how much exactly this mascara is, but I am sure that it is around the £20 mark which I think makes it expensive in my eyes for a product which ultimately, doesn't last that long.
My mini tester!
The brush is rather nice, a medium sized bristle brush – no gimmicks here.
From the top, the brush seems to have a kind of edge to it – this could be my imagination but I wouldn't say its a perfectly round shape.
But talk is cheap – how does it look on the eyes?
You know, I'm glad I've had a few weeks to play about with this mascara, because based on initial testing, I would have just this a Meh. But actually – its a very very good mascara.
Remember I am still lash permed up so I can't rate this on ability to hold curl in my current state.
One coat:
Oooh its nice. It reminds me of YSL Singulier in terms of results – long length, a bit of volume, separated lashes.
Even though there is a lot of length on there, this mascara isn't fibery (something that annoys me about Japanese mascaras – many of them are fibery and thus irritate my eyes).
There is a little bit of flaking with this product – ever so slightly, at the end of a long, long day, there are some flakes and a bit of smudging. It isn't a waterproof mascara, so its doing ok cos my face is mega dry:
Lashes are nicely separated:
In many ways, this mascara performs as many of the high end ones I have bought over the years do – the Chanels, the Lancomes, the YSLs, the Diors – all perform well but sure do cost £££.
I've had this in my make up bag for weeks and I do really like it – so easy to use so effortless. Yet something is stopping me from thinking that I need the full size product once it dries out – its very very very good but there's something missing that makes me want to plonk £20 down for it.
And besides…there are always newer, shiner mascaras to test…

NEW Refuge Map
McLean Game Refuge
Senator George P. McLean gave to the Simsbury and Granby area an extraordinary legacy through his preservation of 3,200 acres of abandoned farms and wild land. In these woods, he found respite from the pressures of state and national politics where his career included U.S. Attorney General for Connecticut (1892-1896); Governor of Connecticut (1901-1903) and U.S. Senator (1911-1917 and 1918-1929).
McLean hunted and fished this land, sharing it with Presidents Coolidge, Taft and Hoover, along with Gifford Pinchot, first Chief of the U.S. Forest Service. McLean also relied upon the woodcraft and wisdom of Amos George, a Pequot a Native American who served as land caretaker from 1912 until 1947.
Close Friend: From left to right: President Coolidge, Mrs. McLean, Mrs. Coolidge, and Senator McLean at McLean's cabin
"I want the game refuge to be a place where some of the things God made may be seen by those who love them, as I loved them, and who may find in them the peace of mind and body that I have found." From the will of Senator McLean.
In addition to land, the Senator left a limited endowment to support the land maintenance and stewardship of the McLean Game Refuge. The Trustees of McLean have added over a thousand acres to the Refuge since the Senator's death, thanks to the generosity of individuals, families and the state of Connecticut.

Jon Topper necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 89 diseños de 30 diseñadores freelance.
The Scale Factory
The Scale Factory is a small, independent consultancy company specialising in Linux systems administration. We work mainly with small web companies, helping them to build out their applications onto scalable, highly available infrastructure so that they can cope with growth in traffic without the systems architecture holding them back.
We concentrate on repeatability; centralised administration; network security; and detailed monitoring of hardware and software components. We use mainly free and open source tools, and do a lot of work with virtualisation.
Briefly: We make websites work bigger and faster.
We focus mainly on web startup companies, typically Web 2.0 businesses; but occasionally we'll do work for more established development companies.
We are looking for a logo which can be used on our website; this will in future be adapted for use on business cards and stationery.
The logo should convey the concept of scalability in relation to computer systems, but this should be abstract - we don't wish to have pictures of servers, or logos of operating systems or software as part of our brand image. We're keen to look intelligent, capable and trustworthy. We have no other preconceived ideas about how this should look, so be as creative as you like.
We will need you to provide a vector file containing the completed design, as well as a list of fonts that have been used - which will preferably be freely available.
Ideally, we'd like to see some idea of how the logo might fit into a website design and business card, but this is not mandatory. Indeed, a website design may form a future brief.

When I requested my friends at TX Bar Organics, North Cal for their most suitable cuts of organic grass fed beef to showcase my Thai beef Panang curry post, they instantly delivered several choices, all beautifully vacuumed-packed in an ice box, and distinctively labeled.
After careful deliberation, I decided on chuck roast (click on the picture gallery above), which by the way is excellent not just for Panang curry, but any braising recipe as well.
Coming in close was a tender juicy piece of top sirloin, which I can't wait to share with you in my next beef recipe post.
The name of the curry – Panang/Phanaeng, originates from my hometown, the beautiful island of Penang on the west coast of Malaysia.
Spices commonly used in Malaysian curries (coriander and cumin) are shared in this Thai curry, along with other aromatic herbs (kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass, galangal, etc.).
An authentic Panang curry is fried in thick coconut cream as opposed to boiling, as in the Red curries, providing a thick, creamy, soup-like gravy.
And in most Thai restaurants, beef is the most famous choice, best suited for a Panang curry.
Because of its bursting savory spice ingredients, with a touch of roasted peanuts and cilantro roots, this is usually the more popular version than the regular Thai curries (Green, Yellow, Red, Massaman).
Aside from that, this is also one of the creamier, rich and mild spicy curry which is easier to take on with a bowl hot steamed Jasmine rice.
The last time I cook Panang was with chicken, and I kept it simple using a can of off-the-shelf Panang curry paste.
So, what better way to showcase this delightful fresh organic grass fed beef with some good home-made Panang curry paste?
If you enjoy making some good old-fashion curry paste, like I did with my usual suspect, ie. Rendang with beef, making Panang curry from scratch is most certainly very easy, a definite must-try to your perfect Panang curry beef.
By the way, I am excited to inform everyone on an upcoming organic grass fed beef giveaway sponsored by my good friends at TX Bar Organics.

The following Letter Type A, or variations thereof, was submitted by individuals or entities.
Letter Type A:
SEC Chairman Christopher Cox
Dear SEC Chairman Cox,
I am writing to urge you to ensure the protection and expansion of long-term shareholders' right to participate in corporate board elections. Long-term shareholders should be able to nominate directors on a company's proxy ballot. I support the efforts of institutional investors to guarantee this right, and I believe it is an important corporate governance reform that will hold corporate directors accountable to shareholders. I believe this right is critical if we are ever going to address runaway executive pay at public companies.
Our corporate governance system requires public company directors to exercise independent oversight over the management of public companies. Too many boards fail to meet this fundamental standard, particularly around issues of executive pay, and the current incumbent-dominated director election process denies long-term shareholders the ability to hold directors accountable.
Long-term shareholders currently have no meaningful control over the process by which directors are nominated and elected. While state laws allow shareholders to nominate their own directors, this is not a realistic option for the average shareholder. Because of the substantial cost of undertaking a proxy contest to remove directors (the costs to print and mail proxy materials alone can run into the millions), pension funds and other long-term shareholders can do little more than rubberstamp a company's nominees.
Proxy access is a cost-effective and efficient way the SEC could encourage good corporate governance, director accountability and long-term value creation at public companies. By ensuring that long-term investors have this option, the SEC can end the self-perpetuating system that permits incumbent boards to hand-pick director candidates.

Tiki Barber, the former all-pro New York Giants running back turned NBC personality, announced that he is separating from his wife.
"After 11 years of marriage, Ginny and I have decided to separate," Barber said in a statement to the New York Post. "This decision was a painful one, but we are moving forward amicably and will continue to work together to raise our children with the love and dedication they have always known."
According to the Post, Barber and his wife have two sons, A.J., 7, and Chason, 6.
The Barber's began dating when both were students at the University of Virginia where Tiki starred as a versatile running back. He was eventually drafted by the Giants and spent 10-years in the Meadowlands, quietly setting offensive records for the G-men. He made three Pro Bowls.
Barber, 35, retired in 2007 and began working for NBC as a host on the Today Show and an analyst for the NBC's NFL broadcasts. The media friendly former player stirred controversy by criticizing his former team before they went on to win a Super Bowl in the year after he left.

Pucker Up ... Old Fashioned Homemade Lemonade!
This summer, I've tried to instill in my kids that although we live in a fast paced world, we need to honor and take part in good nourishment for our bodies. Taking just a little extra time to made something from scratch not only keeps us connected with healthy food, but also keeps us connected to each other. Plus, my lemonade lovin' friends, it just tastes better.My kids helped me make this. They helped pick out the lemons. They felt the dimply marking of the fruit. They smelled the rind as I zested it. They helped juice the lemons. And, most importantly, we talked to and laughed with each other while we were making it. Sure, it took less than five minutes, but it's a memory that I hope they'll hold onto long after they drained the last drop of lemonade out of their glass.
This is so easy to make, and only calls for 3 ingredients. Come on, give it a try. You'll be glad you did!
Homemade Lemonade (Makes 1 quart)
3 large lemons, at room temperature
1 scant cup sugar
4+ cups of cold water
Ice (If desired)
Wash and dry your lemons.Zest if desired, freezing the zest for future use in another recipe.Roll the lemon back and forth, pressing slightly to maximize their juicing potential. Cut in half.Using a citrus juicer, firmly push the lemons against it twisting back and forth until all the juice is rendered. My little juicer fits right over the measuring cup. You want about ¾ cup of lemon juice.Perfect ... exactly ¾ cup! Strain if any seeds sneak through!
Save those shells to use as dessert cup holders for lemon mousse or jello or whatever moves you.
Pour the juice into a large pitcher. Add four cups of cold water. Stir in 1 cup of sugar. You'll be surprised at how quickly the sugar dissolves. Add ice if desired. Done! Serve! Enjoy!Oh. My. Gosh! You guys are gonna love this! It's not overly sweet at all, nor is it overly tart. The best word is REFRESHING. In a big way. You could dress it up by floating lemon slices in the pitcher, or even adding sliced strawberries. I like it straight up and plain.I like to drink lemonade (and iced tea) out of jars! Do you call these jelly jars? We used to call them Mason jars or even canning jars. Whatever you call them, they work great. This 1/2 pint size is perfect for kids' hands, and work great for adults, too.
See what's missing here? No bizzarro neon yellow color! Real lemonade is a cloudy, clear color with just a hint of pale whitish yellow.So, before summer slips away, make a pitcher of lemonade for yourself and those you love. It will be a hit, I promise!

Hey, do you think you could freeze those lemon halves?? Have you ever tried? I've frozen lemon zest, but never a whole half.

Soooo refreshing .... something I can look forward over Xmas.
In Winter make it with Hot water, and maybe a little honey and ginger. That'll warm up the innards on a chilly day (for the grownups try spiking with a little ginger wine - delicimo).

Homemade lemonade...I haven't made it in years and years. It makes me pucker just to think about it. I'm sure you all will hold on to that memory forever. Sometimes the most simple things are the ones that stay with you.
Its hard to believe fall is right around the corner. I could feel it in the air this morning.

I call them mason jars, too. Being far too lazy to squeeze my lemons, I just use real lemon juice from the jar. There's nothing better than a pitcher of real lemonade not from powdered glop!

Can you believe I've never made homemade lemonade before? I need to change that asap!

Absolute Bica necesitaba un nuevo diseño de otro y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 6 diseños de 4 diseñadores freelance.
I am working with a client that has an area on the homepage that requires a flash slideshow / intro. I have a zip file with all the respective images and 1 video file that needs to be incorporated
If you visit http://www.guyerinstitute.com, you are presented with a flash intro starting with "Welcome to the Guyer Institute of Molecular Medicine". This is the only piece I am concerned with. Not the music, not the sliding purple bars. Only the animated pictures with various text elements showing/hiding.
I have a zip file containing ALL the slideshow pictures (17). a short mp4 video clip, and the text snippets needed for each picture. I need the slideshow to act very similar to the flash piece on that site. Items like random transitions, smooth animations, floating/moving text, etc.. are necessary.
My zip file also contains a Photoshop file and mockup that shows the rounded box container the animation will be a part of. The flash piece must fit these dimensions. The zip is missing a couple images, so I would need the ability to either have you add those in later, or allow me to easily add them in. The ability to use XML to control current/future images + the text pieces would be a plus.
Please message me on here or at firstname.lastname@example.com for access to the ZIP file if you are interested in this project.
- Smooth animations
- Random transitions
- Moving/floating text, please use a cursive font style
- Try to replicate the types of effects/animations that exist on http://www.guyerinstitute.com
- If possible, utilize XML so I can include future images...and/or control not only images, but the text items .
- I need the raw files (.fla, etc...) upon completion of the project should you be the winner
- A large file size, keep it as small as possible

The Medical Center now offers Stereotactic Radiosurgery for the highly precise treatment of brain and spinal tumors. This form of image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) delivers a large radiation dose to a tumor in a single session or a lower dose in multiple sessions. The goal of this non-invasive procedure is to destroy the target without surgery or harming nearby healthy tissue.
Because of the location of a brain tumor and the sensitivity of the surrounding tissue, often times the tumor is inoperable. Stereotactic Radiosurgery shapes a high dose radiation beam around the tumor in order to deliver the radiation to the entire tumor. Because of the precision of the technology, the treatment dose is delivered within one millimeter of the tumor, protecting the surrounding tissue.
Stereotactic Radiosurgery is a non-surgical treatment despite its name and is viewed as a form of "bloodless surgery." The procedure does not remove the tumor. It damages the DNA of the tumor cells, causing them to loss their ability to reproduce.
Patient Benefits
Stereotactic Radiosurgery provides many benefits to the patient including:
- Precise treatment, minimizing radiation damage to normal tissue
- Treatment delivery in the shortest possible timeframe
- Treatment that adapts to minor movements, minimizing potential treatment errors
- Painless treatment performed on an outpatient basis
The Medical Center has been providing radiation treatment services for over 25 years. The cancer program at The Medical Center is recognized by the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer, acknowledging the quality of our comprehensive, multidisciplinary patient care. Additionally, The Medical Center's radiation oncology is accredited by the American College of Radiology.

They might be known as the "knock-knock" burglars, but police say they're no joke.
Los Angeles authorities are trying to track down the owners of more than 11,000 items recovered from burglary suspects busted earlier this year, the L.A. Times reported.
The suspects in the string of burglaries were nicknamed "knock-knock" burglars because they typically knocked on a person's door or business to see if anyone was inside before breaking in.
Police officials in June asked for help in identifying more than 3,000 high-end jewelry pieces and watches recovered from a Beverly Hills home that they believe are tied to a rash of home burglaries across the San Fernando Valley and Glendale.
Police have said the burglars belonged to a criminal group made up of South Los Angeles gang members that was targeting the affluent neighborhoods.
At least 50 people were arrested earlier this year in connection with the knock-knock burglaries, police said, and after serving search and arrest warrants, authorities discovered thousands of items they believe were stolen.
People who recognizes their property on the LAPD website can email police or leave a message at (818) 644-8091 with information about the item and incident, along with a contact number.

Incongruous, illogical, foolish.
It's when you wear 4-inch pointy-toe stilettos to a party where you know you will be standing up all night. It's when you get a blowout and it's raining. It's when you eat chilli with onions and pizza with garlic and anchovies on the night of your first kiss. It's when you drink coffee at midnight. It's when you eat classic French Onion Soup and you're a vegetarian. It's when you get in the car of that ex-boyfriend and accept his breath mints.
It's when you make lamb stew in steaming 32C (and climbing!) weather.
As always, our summer was deadly hot and mind-numbingly humid. Somewhere in the latter part of May though, it seemed to lose steam (no pun intended). Rains came (rainy season follows summer…that's how our seasons go) and it looked like the summer would be shorter than normal – sad in a way, but a relief too. It was way too hot already and I was running out of skirts and dresses to wear (the breeziest way to go in the summer).
Then suddenly, in June (which fyi, should already be rainy/back to school season) like an avenging angel, the heat swooped back down to flatten us. Sweat and lethargy grappled with me…sometimes rendering me unable to do even the most basic tasks! The heat raged anew, ignoring the thunder that tried to bully it away.
So why was I melting over a heavy pot of bubbling lamb stew when I was in danger of getting a good braise myself? Why do I wear stilettos? Why did I get into that car?
I know! I would have been kicking myself if only I had the energy.
Red Wine and Tomato Lamb Stew
(inspired by* Red Wine and Tomato Lamb Shanks, page 124 Donna Hay Magazine issue #33)
- 1 kilo lamb (stewing cuts, with bones)
- flour for dusting
- olive oil
- 4-5 garlic cloves, minced, plus 1 head garlic, outer skins peeled but inner skin left intact
- 3 onions, peeled and cut into wedges
- 1 cup red wine
- 1 800-gram tin chopped tomatoes
- 1 400-gram tin chickpeas (260 grams drained weight)
- 2-3 smallish potatoes (about 300 grams total), peeled
- 4 bay leaves
- 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- a generous pinch of your favourite chilli powder or flakes**
- sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
– Dust the lamb with flour and shake off any excess. In a heavy-based pot heat oil. Add lamb pieces and sear until browned, seasoning with salt and pepper. Remove from pot and set aside.
– Add the onions and minced garlic to the pot and cook until soft and golden.
– Gradually add wine, scraping the bottom of the pot as you do to deglaze and get all the yummy bits.
– Add the tomatoes, chickpeas, potatoes, bay leaves, rosemary sprigs, sugar, chilli, and the whole garlic head. Give everything a good stir.
– Add lamb and bring to a boil.
– Reduce heat to low, cover with a tight-fitting lid, and simmer for 2 hours or until meat is tender and sauce is thickened. Stir occasionally after the first hour to make sure the stew does not stick to the bottom of your pot and scorch it! When you do this, taste and adjust seasoning.
In my defense, we had some stewing lamb*** in the freezer and it was taunting us mercilessly! I had bookmarked a lamb shank recipe from the Donna Hay magazine winter 2007 (winter? Could I not see the warning signs?) issue that sounded fabulous – lamb stewed in tomatoes and red wine. I was itching to try it. And at the end of the day, we did enjoy the dish…even as I stared unbelievingly at C, who was wolfing everything down while beads of sweat popped up on his forehead. He loved it! So did I. But yes, it would have been much better eaten while a storm raged outside. Now I'm thinking of tossing the leftovers in the freezer…to be resurrected**** once the rains come again.
*I changed and added a lot (the garlic head, chickpeas, and potatoes for example are my additions, all the quantities are different, I added chili, she used marjoram instead of rosemary…) so aside from the wine, tomatoes, and lamb, my recipe differs quite a lot from Donna's (but I still give her credit for inspiring me!)…so if you try this, and you don't like it, please don't blame Donna 🙂**I used dried chipotle pepper flakes and a couple of generous glugs of Chipotle Tabasco sauce – my latest favourite supermarket thing 🙂
***This was made with another batch of mum-in-law lamb. She may not know this, but I haven't had to buy lamb since she gave me the first batch! Thank goodness for small favors eh? 😉 I hope I don't jinx this seemingly steady supply of lamb. I'm making something for her soon I swear!
****The leftovers will make a kick-a** pasta sauce…I just know it! And you know I don't use the word a** lightly (again, no pun intended).

A star-studded cast will turn out for the Sainsbury's Grand Prix at the Alexander Stadium on Sunday for the third year running.
The IAAF Diamond League meeting is one of the most prestigious in the calendar, with the likes of Mo Farah, Robbie Grabarz and Perri Shakes-Drayton all set to compete.
Olympic bronze medallist Grabarz goes in the high jump at mid afternoon where he will be hoping to repeat his victory at the meet from last year.
A clearance of 2.32m in 2012 was enough to best the field and he will likely need something similar to come out on top this time.
Grabarz's training base is in Birmingham and he is a favourite of athletics followers in the area, so there will be an extra edge to the home support when it comes to him.
Shaykes-Drayton will follow up her impressive 400m victory are the European Team Championships a week ago by going in the 400m hurdles in Birmingham.
The 24-year-old clocked the fastest time in Europe this season at the event in Gateshead, though her task is expected to be much tougher on Sunday.
Double Olympic gold medallist Farah is expecting a first real test of the season ahead of the World Championships in August, as most of his main rivals for the 5000m will be competing in Birmingham.
World leaders for this year, Yenew Alamirew and Hagos Gebrhiwet, will line up next to Farah, while 10000m world champion Ibrahim Jeilan will also race.
Olympic silver medallist Christine Ohuruogu will go in the 400m, while current men's 400m hurdles champion Dai Greene is set to turn out against Olympic champion Felix Sanchez.
Jamaica's Olympic 100m champion Shelley-Ann Fraser-Pryce will go against sprint rival and world 100m champion Carmelita Jeter of the USA in the 200m.

The Bishop Hendricken hockey team will have only one goal when it steps on the ice for this weekend's state semifinal series against La Salle.
Get to Brown.
That's really all the Hawks can be thinking about at this point, with the Rams standing between themselves and another berth in the state championship series.
While it might be tempting to look ahead toward a potential rematch of last year's championship series with Mount St. Charles, Hendricken knows that won't be a possibility unless it takes of its business in the semis first. If it wants to play at Brown's Meehan Auditorium and win a second consecutive title, the focus needs to be on the first step.
"The only benefit we have is that we can't look ahead," Hendricken head coach Jim Creamer said. "From how competitive those games have been all year with La Salle, we're forced to focus on what's in front of us."
Hendricken is riding high entering the playoffs, as it earned the No. 1 seed thanks to a 15-2-1 league record. La Salle is the No. 4 seed after a 9-8-1 regular season, but the gap between the two teams isn't necessarily as pronounced as the records would indicate.
The Hawks and Rams have faced off three times this season, with Hendricken winning all three games by a single goal. The first time they met, on Dec. 14, the Hawks won 3-2. Then, on Jan. 25, Hendricken held off a two-goal third-period rally by La Salle to win 3-2 again. Recently, on March 2, the Hawks overcame a 1-0 deficit in the third period to win 2-1 in overtime.
They also met in a preseason Injury Fund game and came away tied.
"I think the two teams match-up really well against each other," Creamer said. "I think the school rivalry plays a part in it. I think it all factors into the whole process. We need to be ready to play or they're going to take it to us."
La Salle will be in search of its first finals berth since the 2009-10 season, when it upset second-seeded Hendricken in the semifinals as the No. 6 seed before falling to Mount.
The Hawks, on the other hand, are trying to keep up the most successful run in the history of their program. They'll be looking for a third consecutive finals appearance and their eighth in nine years.
"We like how we're playing, but we recognize it's going to be a big challenge," Creamer said. "They're a very good team."
Leading the charge for Hendricken will be its much-heralded first line, which has been as dynamic as any in the state. Senior Ed Markowski, junior Andrew Fera and sophomore Matt Creamer have combined for 97 points. Creamer is tied with Mount's Tyler Scroggins as the leading point-getter in the division with 38. Markowski is third in the division with 31 points, and Fera is fourth with 28.
Those three will have to do the heavy lifting offensively.
"I don't think it's a secret that those three guys have to score for us," Jim Creamer said. "When they're successful, we're successful. We ask quite a bit out of them, and I think they're more than capable of handling it."
Others, like Jamie Armstrong, Dakota Hersey, Tucker Alberigo and Reilly Miller could also help out with the scoring load, but it won't be an easy task for anyone, as they'll be trying to score on sophomore goaltender Tyler Walsh.
Walsh is 6-foot-3, making him one of the tougher players in the state to put the puck past. This season, he played almost 740 minutes between the pipes, which was the third most in D-I. His goals against was 2.25, and he boasted a .909 save percentage.
"He's a big kid," Creamer said. "I think we need to get a lot of shots on him and get some rebounds. We've got to work to score goals."
Of course, the Hawks wouldn't be where they are without standout goaltending of their own. Senior Mitch Proulx has been the go-to guy for most of the year, as he's allowed just 18 goals all year and leads D-I with a 1.41 GAA and a .939 save percentage. Hendricken also has senior Craig Colson, who has an exceptional 1.82 GAA in limited time in net, although he played in three of the final six games for the Hawks.
As good as Walsh is, Hendricken's goaltending has been second-to-none.
"We feel great with either one," Creamer said. "I'm still undecided how we're going to play them. I think we'll start with Mitch on Friday night and we'll go from there. It's a nice problem to have."
Unlike Hendricken, the Rams don't have a dominant top line of goal-scorers, as their leading scorer – sophomore Joe Manown – has 17 points, which is 13th in the division. Their next two leading scorers are Jason Delisle and Brendon Cordeiro with 13 goals apiece.
La Salle scored 47 goals in league play, compared to 70 for the Hawks. Yet, in the three meetings between the teams this year, Hendricken only out-shot the Rams 91-78.
"They've got some talented forwards that can score," Creamer said. "They're gritty, they work really hard. They're just going to be tough to play against."
Despite being rivals and playing in the same division, the playoff showdown between Hendricken and La Salle is rare. They've only met five times since 1993-94 and only once since 1999-2000.
That said, they're still plenty familiar with each other, and they're both simply trying to give themselves a shot at being the state's best.
"I think the rivalry thing really sticks out," Creamer said. "Between the football, and basketball and everything else. I think both school's communities are geared up for it. When you're a 16, 17-year-old kid, they get geared up for it as well. I think it's a healthy rivalry, and I think both teams will play their best because of it."
Game one of the best-of-three series is Friday night at 7 p.m. at Thayer Arena. The second game will be held on Saturday at 8 p.m. at West Warwick's Benny Magiera Rink. A third game – if necessary – would be held on Monday, with the rink and game time still to be determined.
In the other semifinal, No. 2 Mount is taking on No. 3 Coventry.
Go Hawks!!!
LaSalle sees green and gold uniforms and immediately assumes the fetal position on the field, pitch, mat, court, pool, track, and now ice. Go Hawks!!
got to hand it to LaSalle - they came to win and win they did. Congrats to the Rams. Bring the same desire to the best out of 3 with the Mount and LaSalle will be state champs. The "Hawks" had a great season and should be proud of what they accomplished.

Women Step Into Art World Spotlight
This winter, a painting by Berthe Morisot sold for $11 million--the most ever paid for a woman's artwork at auction. Along with other big art-market moments for women in recent years, the record has auction houses and dealers re-examining this historically undervalued niche. Ellen Gamerman reports.

I confess to watching Downton Abbey, the glorified soap opera that PBS runs on "Masterpiece Classic." (By the way, what was the last true masterpiece to appear on Masterpiece Theatre/Classic, I Claudius?) My excuse is that I got hooked before I realized how flawed the show is.
A better excuse, albeit of the after the fact variety, came briefly to mind when I saw, via Forbes Magazine, that some among the British left dislike Downton Abbey, going so far as it claim that its popularity in the United States is due to the rise of the Tea Party movement and conservative opposition to the death tax. Apparently, the British left is unhappy that Downtown Abbey doesn't portray the aristocracy as vicious. It would like to see the aristocratic patriarch, Lord Grantham, beat the servants and kick his dog.
But Lord Grantham serves the left's purposes in a more meaningful way by being the biggest fool in Christendom (with the even more conservative Mr. Carson giving him a run for his money). He is wrong, sometimes criminally so, about every issue that arises, and usually for the same reason — he is wedded to tradition and refuses to accept the new thinking on a particular subject. He makes Archie Bunker look like a genius, and All in the Family was not created to extol the intelligence of lower-middle class American male conservatives.
The British Left's displeasure with Downton Abbey isn't a commentary on the show. Rather, it is a demonstration of its ideological and cultural greed.
The American left is shrewder and more realistic. The Obamas enjoy Downton Abbey so much that Michelle Obama is said to have pulled strings to get the third season of Downton Abbey before its United States launch on January 6 of this year.

Just returned from Australia, which was a magical vacation that I will never forget. I had an amazing time spending New Year's Eve on a boat in Sydney Harbor, Kayaking in Byron Bay, and living in luxury on Lizard Island. Each day was better than the last and I can't wait to book my next trip. Thank you Swain Destinations for creating such an unforgettable experience!Read more

Tour Swain Destinations Company Reviews
5.0 October 2017
This is a holiday gave me a chance to slow down, and take the time to feel part of the natural world: the sun, to notice the hook-beaked oyster catchers and families of rare seals, to enjoy the wonderful food, the sunshine, scudding clouds, waves lapping and the feeling of being held safely by the St Hilda whilst being at the mercy of winds, tides and waves. It was fun to share tasks with fellow passengers and to laugh. I haven't laughed so much for years. And I loved seeing beautiful coastal parts of Scotland for the first time from the sea, gaining the chance to wonder at the histories and cultures that have flourished, been lost and yet live on in the remote, unusual places where we moored. I discovered my sea-legs, but I found much more - the pleasure of a little bit of distance from land, the new perspectives it gives and sheer joy of experiencing the sea, and its role in revealing new dreams and uncovering old ones. All this was in the company of knowledgeable crew - sea-farers who made the whole cruise delightful from start to finish and easy-peasy for a land-lubber like myself.Read more

5.0 October 2017
This holiday was like no other: it was stepping into another world where the wind, sun and sea mattered because our lives were held by the ship and these big elemental forces. It was a realm of sea faring lore, laughter and fun, where the elements - water, wind and tides - mattered and shaped and influenced our journey. It's easy to laugh on a ship because you are sharing the camaraderie of crew and ocean and somehow the sea is lighter than the land. Instead you have the myths and stories of sea and mysteries of the deep - Moby Dick, Jonah, Noah's Ark and Ring of Bright Water! It's fascinating to be on a slow journey with time to reflect and to be looking at the strange, populated and then depopulated, fought over Scottish coastal landscape from a new perspectives. It's fun to work with the charming, witty, friendly skippers and fellow crew hauling anchors and sails. But, most of all, it's a joy to be on, and in, and feeling the elemental ocean. I felt safe and found my sea-legs, but I also stumbled into a new world, one that enriches and ignites dreams.Read more

St. Hilda Sea Adventures provide the unique experience to see Scotland from the sea. They offer many activities and private excursions - a perfect travel experience for families, older travellers, and small multi-gen groups.
What Makes Them Stand Out?
Taking only up to 11 guests (6 on St Hilda and 11 on Seahorse II), their tours are incredibly unique, as you cruise aboard a classic ex-tall ship (St Hilda) or a proper small ship (Seahorse II). Activities include sailing, swimming, sea kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, rock pooling, and lobster potting. Or, you can simply choose to just relax and watch the spectacular wildlife and scenery float by.
Who Travels With Them?
All ages and all types enjoy traveling with St. Hilda Sea Adventures. Families, couples, and solo passengers are all welcome. Passengers can choose to do as much or as little as they like. This is a great trip for young kids to enjoy as well, for the thrill of hoisting the sails like a true sailor.
Where Do They Operate?
The West Coast of Scotland is where they specialize, the Outer and Inner Hebrides specifically. Such a niche focus is a huge positive for those interested in getting a unique view of this part of the world.
Why Travel With Them?
Their Scottish cruises give you the opportunity to see extraordinary wildlife and to cruise aboard a small ship with skipper and chef and a small group of passengers. All food is included, and there are many opportunities for interesting excursions. Some excursions are included in the price however, you can also arrange excursions based on your interests. These are not included but allow for a wonderful amount of personalization to your travel experience with St. Hilda Sea Adventures.

Villa Zeist 2
Private House in North Brabant, The Netherlands ? design by HofmanDujardin Architects
14 Dec 2018
Villa Zeist 2
Design: HofmanDujardin Architects
Location: The Netherlands
HofmanDujardin harmonizes spaciousness and privacy in Villa Zeist 2
Situated in the pine woods, Villa Zeist 2 adds a strong horizontal line to the vertical nature of its surroundings.
A concrete canopy connects the different brick volumes of the villa, which reflect the wishes of the family. HofmanDujardin conceived their house as a series of interconnected rooms which provide intimacy and offer views to the woods and the sky.
The general scheme of Villa Zeist 2 combines the family?s wish for privacy with the possibilities and restrictions of the elongated plot. Instead of a stretched bar, the villa is built up of linked volumes of different sizes which create a series of pockets.
These semi-enclosed outside spaces soften the relationship between the interior and exterior. Occasionally covered by the concrete canopy, they offer protected places to be and enjoy the different perspectives of the landscape.
In the interior, these pockets strongly enhance the richness of the spaces within the volumes. They serve the client?s wish for privacy twofold. On the one hand, the shaped distance between the separate volumes provides intimacy to the rooms.
On the other hand, the pockets allow t...

Madonna is stepping up her social media presence. The singer has joined Instagram, signing up on Feb. 10 while the rest of her pop music peers were having a good time at the Grammys. Madge posted some candid shots of herself – wearing a fake mustache, working up a sweat, enjoying a beverage (of the martini sort) and more!
At press time, she had posted seven photos and had nearly 63,000 followers. She's racking 'em up quickly.

It's refreshing to see that the Material Girl is embracing another arm of social media. She started tweeting around the release of 'MDNA' last March as part of promotional efforts, and even had a verbal battle with Deadmau5. But she didn't stick with it. She is active on Facebook, often posting photos of herself. But she seems to have taken to Instagram and is having a good time sharing photos with her fans. It could be the honeymoon phase or the start of something visually appealing!
We don't doubt that her horde of fans will continue to grow, as long as she keeps on posting candid photos that offer a little glimpse into her world.

Cooking for one, especially when you have cooked for a full house for many years, can take some time to get use to. Here are some easy tips:
- Determine the number of servings of a recipe and divide it by that number to create a one person meal (this is trial and error for the taste quality because some of the recipes don't work as well when you cut them in half or more).
- Snack! You can easily make a one person snack that is nutrient dense and delicious. Try these Pineapple Tidbits! They're quick, easy, and don't leave any leftovers.
- Buy fresh fruits and vegetables, clean them, and chop them at the beginning of each week for easy additions to all your meals. Fruit and Vegetable Storage and Selection Information
- Buy already washed spinach or romaine lettuce to make a quick salad. Top with beans and you have a complete meal!
- Most grocery stores offer frozen fruits, vegetables, poultry, and other meat and meatless products that can be used as needed. If you are just cooking for yourself for the night, just use one chicken breast or one veggie burger. Add a salad, side of fruit, and a beverage and you have a well-balanced meal!
Try these tips to make fruits and veggies fit into any budget:
- All forms—fresh, frozen, canned, dried and 100% juice—of fruits and veggies are just as nutritious for you. Survey the store or market and purchase the cheapest form of a certain fruit or vegetable.
- Try our 30 Ways in 30 Days for complete menus that feed up to 4 for less than $10 (that's hard to beat!).
- Plan Ahead! See our tips for shopping for fruits and veggies on a fixed budget!
- Shop in season! Buying fresh fruits and veggies in season is generally the cheapest time to buy them.
Also, Not only do fruits and veggies provide essential nutrients to promote a healthy body, they play an important role in manage a healthy weight too.
