Earlier this year, I was asked if I would do a watercolour or pencil illustration of a church in Spain that was to be the theme for some wedding stationery. Joanne Rogan, the client and bride-to-be was brilliant in providing me with a range of church illustrations that she had seen and liked, so that I could get ‘the feel’ of what she was looking for. A better start and brief could not be had, as most clients know what they want, but are not very good at explaining it, leaving the artist or designer ‘in the dark’.
Joanne also provided me with some photographs of El Salvador’s Church in Nerja, Spain where she was marrying her fiancé, Gary Cooper. The photographs were beautiful, showing a white stately church against an azure sky. There was a tree in the photographs that I had to ‘remove’ but that didn’t prove to be a problem.
It took me a couple of days (in the bleakness of early February) to produce the coloured pencil illustration of the church bedecked in sunshine, which was then sent for Joanne and Gary’s approval. Thankfully, they loved it and it was then sent to the printers to be incorporated into their wedding stationery. As you can see below, Joanne and Gary did a great job of it and the stationery looks unique and amazing! Having said that, so do the happy couple in the photographs, as you can see. I would like to offer my congratulations to Joanne and Gary for their marriage day and also for doing such sterling work on their wedding stationery!
Every best wish to you both for many happy years to come…
Joanne and Gary were married on the 21st September 2018.

Tropical Storm Jerry was a weak tropical storm of the very active 1995 Atlantic hurricane season. Even though Jerry was weak, Jerry caused 8 deaths and $40 million in damage. Jerry made landfall in Jupiter, Florida and Dixie County, Florida. Jerry was active with four other cyclones in the Atlantic Ocean: Humberto, Iris, Luis, and Karen. Because there was not much damage, the name Jerry was not retired and was used again in 2001 and 2007, the name will also be used again in 2013.
Meteorological history
A tropical wave moved off the coast of Africa on August 9. Over the next week, clouds and other thunderstorms grew near the tropical wave. By August 22 it was upgraded to Tropical Depression Eleven. Tropical Depression Eleven was located just to the north of Cuba at the time. On August 23 it became Tropical Storm Jerry. Jerry had winds at 40 miles per hour, however the minimum pressure was not at the lowest still Jerry weakened back to a depression. The National Hurricane Center did not expect to Tropical Depression Eleven to become a tropical storm because most of the showers and thunderstorms were over land.
On August 23, Tropical Storm Jerry made landfall in Jupiter, Florida while it was still a weak tropical storm with winds at 40 miles per hour. It stayed as a tropical storm until it went into the Gulf of Mexico. It made a second landfall in Florida of August 25 while a tropical depression. It crossed into Georgia soon after and into South Carolina. Jerry died on the border of Georgia and South Carolina on August 28. The remains of Jerry either moved to the south back over to Florida or to the east over North and South Carolina. But the remains of Tropical Storm Jerry did last for five days over the United States.
Impact
Tropical Storm Jerry killed two people in Florida, three people in South Carolina, and three more in North Carolina. Jerry caused $19 million in damage in Florida, $10 million in South Carolina, and $11 million in North Carolina. In total, Jerry caused $40 million in damage and 8 people to be killed. This was the first time since 1990 that a name starting with the letter "J" was used. It was also only the second time that the name Jerry made been used to name a storm in the Atlantic. Because there was not much damage, the name Jerry was not retired, so it was used again in 2001 and 2007, it will also be used again in 2013.

where the magic happens.
our day was kind of lazy on monday, and at one point found all 5 of us laying on our bed. it started with june, who had been playing with toys while i put away some laundry. then ben found her, laid down, and started talking to her. eventually our other two kids sauntered into the room, wondering where the rest of us had gone, and both requested to be lifted up. that's when i couldn't help myself.
we stayed there for a half an hour or more, talking and laughing. goofing around and teasing each other.
there's something sacred-feeling about our bed. it eliminates unkindness between siblings, and stress from school or work. we're free from insecurities and fears, or jealousy and competitiveness. it becomes just us, our little family. it's a place where we can just be.
and gives us a moment to realize that we are really happy together, and have a whole lot of love for each other.
magic.

on broken jaws & facing fears
{these are my teeth close-up. bet you never thought you'd get this view of me.....i have no upper lip when i smile.}
so there i was, sitting in the chair.
i had been extremely nervous up until the time i actually sat down, but for some reason as soon as i settled in, i became surprisingly calm.
sarah mclachlan's album "building a mystery" was on in the background. they said i could listen to anything i wanted to, and i picked this album because she kind of whisper-sings and i thought it would be appropriate as i drifted off to sleep.
"you ready?" he asked, but i could only see his eyes. the rest of his face was masked. he was holding up metal tools, one in each hand.
"um, sure," i said, my eyes darting back and forth between his masked face and the masked face of his assistant. the nervousness had returned.
"okay, we want you to count backwards, starting at 10. when you wake up, it will be all over with. nothing to be worried about," his voice was reassuring. he placed the plastic mask over my face and the air started blowing into my nose.
"ten....nine.......eiiiiiiighhhhht..........seeeeeeevvvvvv," i said groggily, as sarah's lilting voice carried me away to blackness.
suddenly, my eyes popped open. something was wrong.
i could hear the music, and tried to focus on it to take me away again, but something was louder, drowning out everything else. it sounded like darth vadar was right next to me, and he was running. fast. panting. what was that noise?
i could feel pulling. HARD pulling. on my face.
darth vadar started running again. then he made a strange sound, like a whimper. since when did darth vadar whimper? where am i?
then i heard,
"she's waking up. give her more gas," from a male voice floating above me.
only then did i realize that darth vadar was me. it was my labored breathing, i was panting. i was whimpering.
i was awake, and something was wrong. of course, i realized this just as the air in my nose became stronger and i floated back to nothingness.
when i woke again, i heard voices. familiar ones, telling me to wake up and that everything went well. i was helped up, helped into the car. i couldn't move my mouth, and felt like i had swallowed 20 cotton balls. my face was numb, but that numb feeling when you know it's going to hurt soon. the pain was just around the corner, i could feel it.
i tried to remember what was going on when i had woken up in the middle of my wisdom tooth extraction, but the details were fuzzy. did that really happen? it felt real, but i was pretty out of it so i wasn't sure.
the next couple of days were a blur, except for a couple of things.
one being the time i threw up. i knew it was coming, and tried to stop it because i was so scared of how much it was going to hurt. i screamed as i vomited, because every time i opened my mouth more than 1/2 an inch wide, pain seared through my face and head. as i threw up i had no control over how to not open my mouth further. so i screamed and threw up through the pain.
i also remember that on day 3, i could not even fit my toothbrush in my mouth without crying and tears streaming down my cheeks. that was when a phone call was made, with a decision to bring me back in for x-rays.
i returned to the chair after x-rays, only to hear him whispering on the phone in his office. things about surgery, and liabilities. i didn't understand, but soon would.
"your jaw is broken," he said, and explained that this is one of the risks you take when you sign that paperwork. one of the teeth had been impacted, but he had made the decision to continue on with the extraction. "you need to see an oral surgeon immediately, and he is going to wire your mouth shut in order to fix the broken bone."
uhhhhhh.
i was confused, angry, scared. and realized that as i had woken up mid-surgery it was most likely when they had broken my jaw, the whimpering and fast breathing because of feeling pain i couldn't express.
being 19 and in the middle of a semester at college, and a waitress at a restaurant where i talked to people all day wasn't the most ideal situation for having my mouth wired shut. it was only supposed to be for 4 weeks, but then i somehow contracted an infection in the broken bone, so it turned into 6 weeks. i had to drop out of school, request for my boss to hold my job for me, and tried to learn how to enjoy food through a blender. {which never happened, even with my handy-dandy cookbook handed over by the oral surgeon on my way out the door after surgery.} my friends who came to visit me couldn't help but laugh as i tried to talk through clenched teeth, which then made me laugh at myself, which made them laugh harder. it was a pathetic and funny cycle.
i survived the experience, unfortunately gained back all of the weight i had lost on my liquid diet once i was able to consume pasta again, and tried to chalk it up to experience. because what else can you do, right?
thanks to groupon, after over 9 long years of not going to the dentist, i sat back again in one of those chairs last friday. i was surprised at how freaked out i felt, not necessarily thinking that my jaw would be broken again, but because i remembered the pain that can come by "routine procedures" and i knew full-well that i had a couple of cavities. i could feel them, and was nervous that i would be told i have to go under again to have them taken care of. i prepared myself for the worst news. root canals, extractions.....would i walk out with a mouth full of dentures?
5. five cavities, all in their beginning stages. not awful, not great. i'll tell you what though, the anxiety of getting them fixed is pretty high, even though rationally i know it will probably be fine. i'll set up my appointment in probably....another 9 years?? okay, just as soon as i can talk myself into getting anesthetic again.
am i alone here? anyone else have an awful experience with the dentist??

Ribeauville is a commune. It is found in the region Picardie in the Aisne department in the north of France. In 2015, 69 people lived there.
Communes in Aisne |
I:I:
- In 2019 there were approximately 9.5 million non-filers – meaning individuals who failed to file a federal income tax return despite having a filing obligation. While it is a little hard to be precise, the information available to the IRS for that year suggests this many individuals (I think Darren was only talking about individual non-filers at this point) had enough income to have a filing requirement. Certainly, a decent number of these non-filers probably are due a refund but it was assumed the majority would owe.
- Collection is looking to Artificial Intelligence for help in responding to taxpayers. Starting in the summer of 2022 an authenticated voice bot will answer questions and let taxpayers set up an installment agreement. Going live now is a chat bot which will allow taxpayers to get answers and to make a one-time payment. Darren called this the unauthenticated version, but it can still be helpful. There will be essentially no wait time to talk to the chat bot.
- He is hopeful that the nearly 3 million people who qualify for a streamlined installment agreement each year will find this service helpful and that having people use it will take some of the pressure off of the Automated Call Sites (ACS).
- He described something called the Case Creation Non-filer Identification Program which is a system for identifying non-filers and specifically high dollar non-filers. Individuals identified through this program will receive a CP 59 letter (CP stands for Computer Paragraph) alerting them of the need to file. Darren said that in the tests taxpayers have responded favorably to this letter.
- He said that ACS is now working high dollar cases up to $1 million. Collection is identifying the types of cases where even though the amount of income earned by the individual is high, the likely collection action is the type that ACS supports. In the past the cut off for ACS handling a case was much lower but the cut off doesn’t reflect the type of collection action necessary to bring a taxpayer into compliance. Though he did not frame it in this manner, I expect that a high dollar delinquent account in which the taxpayer is a wage earner or someone who otherwise has assets that would be easy to levy will end up in this program.
- In 2019, 843,000 of the 9.5 million non-filers were considered high income. For this purpose, the taxpayer was considered high dollar if more than $100,000 in income was reported to the IRS.
- Revenue Officers (ROs) are the front-line collection employees in the field and generally maintain an inventory of about 50 to 70 cases. Now, there are less than 2,000 ROs working for the IRS. This is the lowest number of ROs since 1970. Darren said they had dwindled in size from about 4,000 in 2010.
- He said there is enough work for several thousand more ROs and collection representatives (the individuals who work in ACS.) The IRS is hiring now, and if legislation passes with funds for the IRS it will be hiring a large number of new ROs and collection representatives.
- Finding new employees to hire is an issue. The IRS found high interest by well qualified individuals in collection representative positions in Puerto Rico. It has hired 400 people and is about to open its largest ACS site which will be located in Puerto Rico. It is in the process of hiring another 400 for a second site in Puerto Rico which will open by the end of the summer of 2022.
- Darren said the IRS has gotten better at identifying individuals who owe money. In 2019 it was collecting about $430 per return. In 2021 it has collected an average of $686 per return. It has shifted ROs from working on delinquent returns to balance due returns.
- Because the IRS has lost so many ROs its presence has diminished. Many smaller cities that previously had an RO presence no longer have one. To reach communities it might not otherwise easily reach given the current location of its staff, Collection is sending ROs out in “sweeps.” It will send 12-13 ROs into a community for a week to knock on doors and confront delinquent taxpayers who otherwise might not see an IRS field presence. The purpose is not to create criminal cases but to drive filing and payment.
- Collection did sweeps virtually during the pandemic. Darren said that these sweeps have been very effective, and he expects to continue them not only in the US but also overseas with an upcoming sweep in Australia.
- It is also going to conduct a sweep of high dollar return preparers who have not filed their own return. Collection’s name for the sweeps is Revenue Officer Collection Sweeps or ROCS.
- Darren described another operation called Surround Sound run by the office of fraud enforcement seeking high dollar cases and the prospect of criminal referrals.
- Related to this discussion, he said that the IRS is getting much better at finding taxpayers who own digital currency and pursuing those individuals who have not filed and paid.
Darren closed his remarks with a plea to practitioners to assist taxpayers in understanding the importance of timely filing even if they cannot pay at the time of filing, because the penalty for late filing is 5% per month which is much greater in comparison to the penalty for late payment which is 0.5% per month.) |

A cotyledon, or seed leaf, is a leaf that is stored in a seed. When the seed sprouts, the cotyledons are the first leaves that the plant has. Monocot plants have only one cotyledon, and other plants have two. Cotyledons often look very different from the other leaves, so they are not called true leaves.
Plants use cotyledons to make sugars through photosynthesis. They use the sugars to keep true leaves growing. After a while, the cotyledons often die because the plant does not need them anymore.

Employee Benefits News examines legal developments that impact the employee benefits and executive compensation employers provide, including federal and state legislation, rules from federal...
An Iowa law forcing companies like Express Scripts and CVS Health to disclose how they price generic drugs is preempted by federal benefits law, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit ruled ( Pharmaceutical Care Mgmt. Assoc. v. Gerhart , 2017 BL 7351, 8th Cir., No. 15-3292, 1/11/17 ).
The 2014 law forces pharmacy benefit managers to disclose pricing methodology to Iowa’s insurance commissioner and to allow pharmacies to comment on and appeal pricing decisions. The Eighth Circuit on Jan. 11 found this law to be unenforceable as preempted by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act because it interferes with the uniform administration of ERISA plans nationwide.
The Pharmaceutical Care Management Association, the PBM industry association that challenged the law in court, called the decision a “shot across the bow” for other states that might be considering adopting similar laws.
The decision “sends an important signal that states can’t impose a patchwork of costly mandates on employers and unions that offer pharmacy benefits,” Mark Merritt, president and chief executive officer of PCMA, said in a Jan. 11 statement.
The National Community Pharmacists Association—which in 2016 filed a brief urging the Eighth Circuit to uphold the Iowa law—said in a statement that it was “deeply disappointed” with the ruling. NCPA CEO B. Douglas Hoey vowed to continue supporting policies like Iowa’s, which he praised as an attempt to “bring transparency to a PBM industry that has exploited secrecy to reap record profits at the expense of hardworking Americans.”
A spokesman for the Iowa attorney general’s office declined to comment on the lawsuit.
In striking the law, the Eighth Circuit said that forcing PBMs to report data to state officials about their role in administering ERISA plan benefits runs counter to Congress’ goal of national uniformity in the administration of employee benefit plans. The Eighth Circuit relied on a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision using ERISA to partly invalidate a Vermont program that collected health claims data.
Other state laws imposing requirements on PBMs have been challenged under ERISA, with mixed results. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit upheld a Maine law from an ERISA preemption challenge in 2005, while the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit struck down key provisions of a Washington, D.C., law in 2010.
District Judge Catherine D. Perry of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri wrote the opinion, which was joined by Circuit Judge Bobby E. Shepherd and Senior Circuit Judge Diana E. Murphy. The decision reverses a 2015 ruling by a federal judge in Iowa.
McDermott Will & Emery and Whitfield & Eddy represented the PCMA. The Iowa attorney general’s office defended the law in court.) |

('is' and 'are' are the linking verbs that connect the subject to the adjective or adjective phrase that describes it.)
Many languages have one main linking verb. In English, this is the verb to be. People use this verb to show how or what something or someone is. Some languages, for example Portuguese and Spanish, have two different verbs for the two meanings of this verb.
Other languages, for example Arabic and Russian, do not have any linking verbs. That is because most languages without linking verbs have inflections, or word endings, that show what part of the sentence words are. Speakers of those languages can join the subject to the complement without any extra words since they share the same kind of inflection. For example, to say "I am a cat" word by word in Russian, a person only says "I cat" (Ia koshka in Russian), but it is obvious to the Russian speaker what the meaning is because both words are in the nominative case, or the word form that shows that a word is the subject of a phrase. Since both words are in the subject form, the words are both linked together.

Favorite.
The Beatles, Rubber Soul and Help!
My daughter has entered the Beatles phase of her development so am re-entering one myself with a cache from the library. We got Help!, Rubber Soul, A Hard Day's Night (and the movies for both), Sgt. Peppers and Please Please Me to start with. Drummer she is, she has declared Ringo her favorite.
I don't push things onto her, plus what kid would share my musical taste? I can barely stand the music I like. She does however pick up on things I'm listening to and runs with them. She made an impromptu list of her favorite groups: Owl City, The Beatles, Joanna Newsom and "the guy that does 'Hydra Fancies'*" so I think she's in pretty good shape on her own
I'm certain I am not the first to publicly wonder if the boys are forming a swastika in this insert from Rubber Soul. I like the spontaneous appearance of hearts.
I'd kinda forgotten how much I like "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away."

I like stars. I have no idea why I like them so much. I have a star tattoo on my collarbone. It's over a year old, they fucked it up, and I still like it. I'm going to get one that's a mirror image of it on the other side of my collarbone, and pretend it was all on purpose. I have shirts with stars, a belt with stars, shoes with stars, a jacket with stars, etc. And when I stop and think about it, I can't pinpoint why I like them so much.
Why do people say that stars twinkle? When I look up at the sky at night, twinkle is definately not the first word to pop into my head. Maybe shine, or shimmer, but twinkle sounds so....childish. Maybe that has something to do with the song. Maybe twinkle was a very sophisticated word before someone ruined it by putting it in a child's song. That makes me wonder what other words will become childish soon. |

There is not much I can say about the content of the seminar since no recording was allowed but I did come away with greater appreciation of what makes an entertaining story and how to apply the principles of great stories to my own work. The information in the seminar was overwhelming in their quantity and quality, but having the book close by makes it easy to keep the principles I learned accessible. I have already changed my short film story based on the lessons I learned and I am glad I did.
If there is anyway you can attend Mr. McKee's seminar, I highly recommend that you do. It will be worth it. |
In organic chemistry, a diene ( ) or diolefin ( ) is a hydrocarbon that contains two carbon pi bonds.
Conjugated dienes are functional groups, with a general formula of CnH2n-2. Dienes and alkynes are functional isomers. Dienes occur occasionally in nature but are widely used in the polymer industry.
Classes
Dienes can be divided into three classes, depending on the relative location of the double bonds:
Cumulated dienes have the double bonds sharing a common atom as in a group of compounds called allenes.
Conjugated dienes have conjugated double bonds separated by one single bond.
Unconjugated dienes have the double bonds separated by two or more single bonds. They are usually less stable than isomeric conjugated dienes.
Compounds that contain more than two double bonds are called polyenes. Polyenes and dienes, share many of their properties.
Cycloadditions
An important reaction for conjugated dienes is the Diels-Alder reaction. Many specialized dienes have been developed to exploit this reactivity for the synthesis of natural products, e.g. Danishefsky's diene. |

Very nice couple enjoyed the good conversation.
And good night rest.
Thank you again .
Had a nice quiet stay and a short chat with our host and hostess. If we head back this way again would definitely stay again. Thanks
Thank you for your kindness and safe haven on our way East. Much appreciated and perhaps next visit we can share Sunday dinner out with you.
Take care of sweet Klutz and stay well!

This was a perfect BW visit for me for several reasons.
Great Hosts that made certain that I was comfortable & hooked up as needed.
I arrived on Sunday afternoon & Joanne wisely has a longtime rule.
She does not cook on Sunday's & Tom is even wiser to respect her day-off. Lol!
They invited me to join them at a local restaurant that I enjoyed so much, I returned twice.
Tom is one heck of a mechanic. He assisted me w repairing & relocating my Solar System.
Then he asked me if my A/C unit works on my Solar System.
I informed Tom that it had a mechanical issue & I have a fear of heights.
But against my wishes & concerns, he went onto my RV's roof & repaired it.
Yes! Tom & Joanne are both wonderful Hosts
And Tom was a true blessing to myself & my BETTY LOU!
Thank you Tom & Joanne, the Lady w a beautiful Red car!
Chuck
Tom & Joanne are a delightful couple offering warm hospitality. The views are pleasant and a nice breeze blew as we sat overlookng the pond, listening to the sounds of nature.
This couple were super hosts for our stay with them. I was with my son-in-law and 2 of my grandchildren, . They went out of their way to make sure that we had everything that we needed for our stay with them. My grandson enjoyed fishing at the pond, even though he didn't catch any fish. I missed the turnoff for their road only because I wasn't paying attention to my GPS, otherwise it was easy to find and no trouble navigating the driveway. Upon arrival, you will be greeted by their dog, with a smile and a wagging tail welcoming you to her kingdom. We parked in a level location which was close to electricity. This place is a quiet and beautiful location all ready for relaxation and the hosts are awesome!
Hosts were very kind and helpful in selecting our next path. Helped us back our trailer into place (in the rain no less) and were in general very helpful and kind. If you are looking for nice people to chat with, this is the place. The greeting party (dog) was a bonus! |

Oslo, August 31st Review
Throughout Joachim Trier’s mesmerizing sophomore feature, Oslo, August 31st, a recovering drug addict (played brilliantly by Anders Danielsen Lie) visits friends and family members—the most important people in his life—while on leave from rehab for a day in search of an avenue to start anew. Ironically, it’s someone he’s hardly acquainted with, someone with whom he exchanges words about a former lover, that perfectly encapsulates his plight and helps us put the film in context:
“This isn’t about your addiction.”
As much as Oslo, August 31st talks about the struggles to overcome one’s demons and the stigma people like our lead character—Anders—carry, it’s much more personal than universal. Yes, Trier bleakly and intimately lays into us the idea that addiction isn’t a characteristic exclusive to the homeless, jobless, family-less lower class. But the bigger takeaway relates specifically to Anders’ case.
It’s arguably more hopeless because he’s squandered a keen intellect and a generally supportive network around him, and he knows it. The reason he’s granted a day away from his rehabilitation facility is to interview for an editorial assistant job at an Oslo publication. He actually impresses the interviewer, but when pressed about what he’s been doing the last few years of his life, Anders freaks out and leaves. He stops by a friend’s house for breakfast, and though the two have plenty to say to each other, Anders’ heart isn’t in the conversation.
Another key encounter happens late in the film when Anders crashes a party at an ex-girlfriend’s house. They have a moment together, but Anders realizes shortly thereafter that he was grasping at straws. Not long thereafter, you’ll realize where Oslo, August 31st is heading, and it’s a place Anders might have had on his mind for quite some time.
The film is straightforward and subtle, and though it clocks in at under two hours, it feels longer. Trier lets his camera linger on moments, encounters, and conversations longer than one might expect, but it’s all done to develop both a connection with Anders and this sense of somber uneasiness that, more than anything else, propels the film forward.
As you might expect from a statement like that, Oslo, August 31st isn’t exactly a happy movie, but it’s powerful and it derives that emotional power naturally, without resorting to manipulation. If you caught Trier’s debut—2006’s Reprise—you’ll definitely buy what he’s selling here. If you missed that film, you’re in store for an awesome Norwegian double feature sometime soon. |
(9 July 1249 - 4 October 1305), was the 90th emperor of Japan, in the traditional order of succession. His reign started in 1259 and ended in 1274.
Traditional history
Before he became the monarch, his personal name (imina) was . The posthumous name of Kameyama comes from the place name of the emperor's tomb, in a section of Kyoto.
He was the seventh son of Emperor Go-Saga and the younger brother of Emperor Go-Fukakusa.
Kameyama was the father of 36 children, including the son and heir who became Emperor Go-Uda.
Events of Kameyama's life
1258 (Shoka 2): Kameyama's son, Prince Tsunehito was named Crown Prince and heir at age nine.
1259 (Shogen 1, 11th month): In the 14th year of Go-Fukakusa's reign, he abdicated. Go-Fukakusa's younger brother got the succession (senso). Soon after, Emperor Kameyama accepted the monarch's role, duties and powers (sokui). This was confirmed in ceremonies.
1268 (Bun'ei 5): Kameyama did not answer a letter from Kublai Khan which demanded tribute. Khan, the leader of China, saw this non-response as rude and not respectful.
1274 (Bun'ei 11, 1st month): In the 15th year of Kameyama's reign, he abdicated.
19 November 1274 (Bun'ei 11, 20th day of the 10th month): Yuan China (Kublai Khan) sent a fleet and an army to invade Japan. Some military forces landed near Fukuoka in Kyushu. This was the "Battle of Bun'ei" or the 1st Mongol Invasion. The same day, a storm sank many of the ships with the main part of the invading army. The invaders ran away to Korea. During the short fight, the Hakozaki Shrine was burned to the ground.
1281 (Koan 4): This is called the "Battle of Koan" or the 2nd Mongol Invasion. A typhoon broke up the invading fleet; and this act of 'divine wind' was called kamekaze.
1291 (Shoo 4): Kameyama helped to found the Buddhist temple Nanzen-ji in Kyoto.
1305 (Kagen 3): Kameyama died.
After his death
The Imperial Household Agency say the mausoleum (misasagi) of Kameyama is in Kyoto. The emperor is venerated at a memorial Shinto shrine there.
Eras of reign
The years of Kameyama's reign cover more than one era name.
Bun'o, 1260-1261

Old Alonissos
After the great earthquake of 1965 the Old Alonissos was abandoned by its inhabitants but over the years many people started rebuilding their houses and so the village reverted back to life. The attractions are quite many so make sure you have enough time to explore them. As you ascend you will see the church of Christ beside the small square with the two cafes.
At the same point, and almost opposite of it, is the church of Saint Athanasios of the 17th-18th century, a single-cell type church with a wooden basilica roof and a semicircular dome. Continuing your walk on the pedestrian Street after the church of Christ you'll find yourselves at the entrance of the castle. There you will see a traditional house which is small Folk Museum, built during the Venetian period. At the edge of the village is the old Primary School a donation by Andreas Syngros, which constitutes the largest neo-classical building of the island. Next to the Cathedral of the Annunciation (18th century) you will see the old well from where the village women used to carry water to their homes. Finally, other churches you can admire are the Agios Dimitrios and Agios Georgios churches.
National Marine Park of Alonissos (The largest Marine Park in Europe)
This is one particularly important area consisting of two zones. The flora and fauna of the park are rich with many species of fish, birds, reptiles and mammals. The Mediterranean seal, the red coral, the mavropetritis bird, the aigaioglaros bird, the shag and the ibex of Gioura are some of the characteristical species living in the area. Read more about the Marine Park here.
Christ's church
A characteristic building due to its architecture. You are going to find it as you ascend in the pedestrian zone of the Old Alonissos, as mentioned above. It is an one-room temple without columns of the 17th century.
The museum of Alonissos
The museum of Alonissos or else the Pirate Museum, as many people in the island call it, is housed in a four-storey stone building and exhibits a rich collection of objects from pirate ships and objects of the island. We visited and present it in detail here.
The Castle
It's positioned in the Old Alonissos and offers a great view and beautiful sunsets. Do not miss the opportunity to wander around the narrow streets of the Castle. Inside the castle you will also see the church of St. George from the 16th century, a single-cell basilica type of church, which is believed to be the oldest church still existing on the island. Finally at the edge of the fence you will see Lisva, the place from where the residents fled when pirates raided the island.
Blue Cave
Also called Papanikolis cave because the submarine Papanikolis found shelter there during the war. The cave is almost across from Cape Paliofanaro of the island of Peristera.
Tsoukalia
Beyond the beach you'll see the fenced area with pieces of pottery. That is where the name of the beach came from. (tsoukalia=pottery bowls) |

As we are all friends here, let’s be really open and candid with each other. I have had many addictions in my life. If you know anything of my ‘previous’ life you will know those addictions led to darkness, anxiety and turmoil. And I’m not alone. Most of us have an addiction of some sort, only a lot of the time we just aren’t aware of it.
Are You An Addict?
Let’s be honest with each other. Think about your life, is there something that you feel you HAVE to have daily or weekly? Is there something that you crave and if you don’t get it, you feel empty and down? And when you do get it, you feel awesome! Perhaps it’s ice cream, chocolate, alcohol, sex, gambling, coffee, coffee, coffee…did I mention coffee???
So what drives this addiction?
The same thing that drives ALL of our actions, the quest for fulfilment.
Everything we do, is driven by the search for fulfilment.
I get really excited when people enquire about meditation in the hope to recover from an addiction. “YES!” I say. “Great news.”
Addicts make great meditators! Why? Because the driving force behind an addiction is to seek something else, a higher experience. My belief is that we aren’t actually addicted to the drugs, the alcohol, the coffee or sex. We are addicted to the sensation we experience when we are having it, and that sensation is one of an enhancement of life.
Admittedly, it doesn’t last long, which is why we have to return back to the source of what made us feel good temporarily and get another dose of ‘feeling good’. So when addicts learn to meditate with me, it’s like a light goes on in their head, their eyes sparkle and their energy shifts.
Yes! They just had the serotonin and oxytocin hit! BOOM!
Overcoming Addiction
In my first week of meditating it was like everything I’d been looking for in my life I was finding right here in the stillness. It was like I’d finally found home. What was I connecting with in the stillness that made me feel this way? I was re-connecting to me…the deep core of my very Being. Here, beyond my body and mind, I connected with something so vast and blissful. It was calm, it was loving, it was gentle, and the amazing thing was, it was in me.
My yearning for those ‘other’ highs started to fade as they became replaced by something much more charming and sustainable. What did that look and feel like? A deep inner calm and bliss. Sure, it wasn’t instant and permanent, more like a gradual fading in of calm and bliss, and fading out of addictions and need.
If you are able to acknowledge that yes, there are addictions in your life, then that’s ok, you’re doing just what all of us are doing, you’re looking for fulfilment. You’re looking to re-connect to YOU.
There, beyond your mind and body, beyond the layers of the ego, lies something so vast, deep and full of love. Meditation just so happens to be one of those portals that will take you there.
Are you ready to take the leap? Then dive deep into my powerful meditation program called Faster Deeper Bliss. This program has been changing people’s lives all over the world. People like who said: |

A Smart Approach to Spring Cleaning
About to get started on some of those spring cleaning projects? Have you thought about where you might store things after cleaning and organizing your home? Make sure you have a smart strategy in place! Here are four ways to maximize the comfort, functionality and appearance of your home after renting a self-storage unit:
- Turn your basement into the ultimate hang out spot. It doesn’t even have to be completely finished for you to take advantage of all that extra space downstairs. All you have to do is quit putting all those holiday decorations and other miscellaneous items down there. It’s time for you to realize the true potential of your basement. Whether you want to turn it into a man cave, for example, or a personal gym, a self storage unit in Tobyhanna, PA, or any of its surrounding areas, will help you get the job done!
- Get your shed ready for home improvement projects and repairs. Although you might have never intended on using your shed for storage, that’s probably exactly what ended up happening. Create more space in your shed, so you can actually use it the way you wanted to in the first place. By moving things like boxes, furniture and seasonal equipment into a storage unit, you’ll create more room to put those hand tools of yours to use. This way, you’ll have the space you need to build or fix things with ease.
- Finally park your car in the garage. Wouldn’t this be nice? You’ve waited long enough. And those piles are just getting taller and more intimidating. It’s time to use your garage for its original purpose: parking your car. It’s easy to get in the habit of tossing everything that doesn’t necessarily belong inside your home into the garage. There needs to be another solution, though; or else, everything will just keep on piling up, making it harder and harder to ever break the cycle.
- Quit junking up the spare room. It’s so convenient to have a spare room, isn’t it? You can turn it into an office, for example, library, personal gym or even a place where you show off your signed sports memorabilia. It’s also a perfect place for your friends, family or guests to sleep if they’re staying for the weekend, or after a long night of partying. Unfortunately, however, this room is probably filled with lots of junk. Give this spot more of a purpose, so you can start enjoying your home to its fullest potential.
Repurpose different areas of your home by giving yourself some extra space this spring!

That was the comment of one comic poet on the Ostracism of Hyperbolos at Athens in around 417 BCE. He was considered "beneath" the punishment. The same applies to David Irving, currently being held in Austria on charges of Holocaust denial. Irving is a jerk, a fraud, and an anti-semite, but he shouldn't be in jail for it. Quite apart from the strong freedom of speech arguments (which I covered here, when he was planning a trip to New Zealand), the threat of imprisonment dignifies him. It gives his views far more credence than they deserve. Potsherds weren't invented for the likes of Hyperbolos, and prisons weren't invented for the likes of Irving. He should be allowed to make a fool of himself in public (and incidently provide a platform for people to prove it) as much as he wants.

Milt (and IS), are you aware that
Irving was exposed as a fraud
who fabricated and misinterpreted
historical documentation in order
to make fellow neofascists look
good, and also owes Professor
Lipstadt two million pounds for
his abortive court case?
I'm afraid this isn't a straight-
forward case. If it were a matter
of competing evidence-based
interpretations of documents or
information, I might agree with
you.
However, Irving is a charlatan.
Nothing more.

I'm not sure that one should uncritically accept the Austrian Government as an arbiter of historical integrity.
After all, we are talking about a nation with a nasty history of obstruction, harassment and intimidation of those who ask too many questions about what the powerful and well-connected did during the War.
Posted by Craig Ranapia : 11/21/2005 07:08:00 AM
Craig: I don't think we should accept any government in that position. As Turkey shows, they just have too much temptation to lie in their own self-interest.
Posted by Idiot/Savant : 11/21/2005 09:10:00 AM
The fact remains though, Irving is
a certified charlatan, and was
exposed as one at great length.
I'd be far more satisfied with
this debate if there was adequate
attention paid to why Irving's
past mendacity does make this
more than a black and white
free speech issue.
Holocaust revisionism is junk

Craig: I'm quite aware that he's a fraud - that's why I call him one above. But that's not something he should be in jail for (or rather, if the Austrian government believes he meets the tight legal definition of "fraud", then they should charge him with that, not with a bullshit crime like hate speech).

The kidneys are two organs in the abdomen of vertebrates which are shaped like beans. They regulate the amount of water and salts in the blood. They make urine so it can be removed from the body.
The adjective which is used for kidneys is renal. For example, renal failure is when the kidneys are sick and do not work.
The prefix nephro- is also used in words to mean "kidneys". For example, a nephrologist is a specialist who studies kidneys.
Hormones
The kidney makes hormones. The two most important ones that it makes are erythropoetin and renin.
Erythropoetin is made by the kidneys if there is less oxygen in the kidney. Erythropoetin signals the bone marrow to make more red blood cells. This means there will be more oxygen carried in the blood.
Renin is made by the kidney if there is low blood pressure, low volume of blood, or too low salts in the blood. Renin makes the blood vessels smaller and tells the adrenal gland to make aldosterone (which tells the kidneys to save salts). It also makes a person feel thirsty. All of this makes the blood pressure go up.
Stable environment
The kidney's most important work is keeping homeostasis. Homeostasis means that the body keeps a stable environment inside itself. The body needs to have the consistent and proper amount of water, salt, and acid in the blood. The kidney keeps these things constant.
If there is too much water, the kidney puts more water in the urine. If there is not enough water, the kidney uses less water in the urine. This is why people make less urine when they are dehydrated.
Kidney diseases
There are many types of kidney diseases. A kidney disease makes the kidneys unable to work perfectly but they do work in part. People can have mild kidney failure and have no symptoms. As long as it does not become worse, people may not even know they have it. Severe kidney failure means very bad failure. The kidneys do not work very much at all. People with severe kidney failure always have symptoms. They need special care from doctors.
The main kinds of kidney diseases are:
Kidney stones - this is when a solid substance forms in the urine. This stone moves through the urinary system until it cannot go on and gets stuck. This sometimes blocks urine flow, and usually causes severe pain. After a time, the stone usually goes out or passes. If it does not go out, a surgeon may have to remove it.
Kidney infections - also called pyelonephritis. This is a bacterial infection in the kidneys. Some of the symptoms are back pain, vomiting, fever, and dark or bloody urine. People with pyelonephritis need strong antibiotic medicines.
Glomerulonephritis - this is a disease of the tissues in the kidneys that make urine. These are called glomeruli. Glomerulonephritis is an autoimmune disease. It can cause mild or severe kidney failure.
Congenital kidney disease - this is when people are born with kidneys that do not work properly. This includes people that are born with kidneys in the wrong place, or in the wrong shape. About 1% of people are born with only one kidney.
Polycystic kidney disease - this is an inherited disorder in which cysts grow in the kidneys, and destroy the kidney tissue until the kidneys can no longer perform their functions.
Diabetic nephropathy - this is the disease diabetics get when their blood sugar is too high for a long time. This is one of the most common causes of kidney failure in the United States
Hypertensive nephropathy - this is caused by having hypertension (high blood pressure) for a long time. Many people have hypertensive and diabetic nephropathy together.
Cancer - Renal cell carcinoma is the most common kind of kidney cancer. It is most often found in adults, and is usually deadly. It is hard to stop it with radiation treatments or chemotherapy.
Renal replacement
If a person's kidneys do not work properly, they are very sick. If they have severe kidney failure, they cannot live unless they have a replacement for their kidneys.
There are two ways to replace the kidneys: dialysis and transplantation.
Dialysis
Dialysis is when doctors use a machine and medicines to do the work of the kidneys. There are two kinds of dialysis: hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.
Peritoneal dialysis is when doctors put a plastic tube into the person's abdomen. Every day the person fills the abdomen with fluid. The extra salts, waste, and water that the body does not need goes into the fluid. Then the fluid comes out and takes the wastes with it. This does part of the job that kidneys do.
Hemodialysis is when doctors take blood from a person, clean the blood with a special kind of filter, called a haemodialyser, and put it back in the person. When the blood is cleaned; water, salts and wastes are taken out of it. This must be done 2-4 times every week (usually 3 times.) It takes 2-4 hours to do this each time.
Hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are not perfect. They do some of the work of the kidney, but it is not as good as a real kidney. So people who need dialysis are not as healthy. They must take medicines. For example, in kidney failure, the kidneys do not make any erythropoetin. Doctors have to give people erythropoetin so they make enough red blood cells.
Transplant
A better way to do the kidneys' work is to give the person another kidney. This is called a kidney transplant. Kidney transplants are the most common type of organ transplant. It is the most common because we have two kidneys, but only need one kidney to live. People who are alive can donate a kidney to another person.
Even transplanted kidneys are not the same as kidneys people were born with. A person who gets a renal transplant must take strong medicines to stop their body from attacking the new kidney. Sometimes, after years, the transplanted kidney stops working. But sometimes a patient can get a new transplanted kidney after the first one stops working.
History
It was widely believed in Europe that the conscience was actually located in the kidneys. This idea was taken from the Hebrew Bible. In modern times, medical scientists have shown kidneys do not have this kind of psychological role.

Mount Rushmore is a famous mountain and memorial near Keystone, South Dakota in the United States. It has the heads of four of America's presidents carved on it: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln. The Mount Rushmore Memorial is a part of the United States Presidential Memorial, which covers and is above sea level (altitude).
History
Before the memorial was carved, the native Lakota Indian Tribes called the mountain "Six Grandfathers". Later, the mountain was named after Charles E. Rushmore, a well-known later, after an expedition in 1885. The memorial was carved to help increase tourism in the Black Hills, where the mountain was. Doane Robinson first formed the idea in 1923. Robinson convinced many influential people in the United States government to build the memorial. Congress soon allowed construction to begin.
After gaining Congress's approval, Gutzon Borglum, a famous American sculptor, was hired to begin the project.
The work of carving the heads began on March 3, 1925. It was completed on October 31, 1941. |

Kullervo is a person in the Finnish national epic Kalevala. He is a good looking man with golden hair. Bad things happen to him; his destiny is tragic.
In folk stories Kullervo is the son of the giant Kaleva. In the Kalevala however Kullervo is the son of a man called Kalervo.
In the Kalevala Kullervo's family is killed by Untamo's family before Kullervo is born. Only one woman is not killed. She gives birth to Kullervo who will be a slave of Untamo. Every work that Kullervo tries goes ill. This is why Untamo sells him to a smith called Ilmarinen.
Ilmarinen puts Kullervo to shepherd cows. Ilmarinen's wife gives Kullervo bread that has stones in it. While Kullervo cuts the bread his knife hits the stone and breaks. Kullervo gets angry and curses bears to eat cows and Ilmarinen's wife. Then he escapes.
While travelling Kullervo has sex with a girl. He does not know that this is his own sister. When he finds out he goes very angry and attacks Untamo and kills him and his family. Then he commits suicide.
The story of Kullervo differs from all other folktales in the respect that it describes the effects of child abuse in a very realistic way, and in the end of the poem Vainamoinen especially warns all parents from abusing their children.

Bold paint strokes, layered effects, fast color shifts and organic shapes. For this piece I did lots of color blending with rubber spatulas, placed layers of transparent paint to create a lot of depth and completed with a gloss “Curtain” on top to make the painting change colors and have intricate patters and motion. High Golden acrylics and IV protective gloss enamel.
Was painted on landscape but it looks beautiful on different orientations. See the pictures for details. Looks amazing in! |

My customers love them and the fit nicely in an htpc case or any case for that matter adding convienent functionality to the front of the pc no messing with usb ports in back for cams, mp3 players or phones.
Cons: needs more screw options like on bottom side and top to fit any case
Overall Review: these add value to any build and can be purchased for a steal when on sale.
Pros: Not the fastest but a good buy for a budget build or workstation. No issues tested sticks using Mem too in Vista no errors everything running smooth. No issues with timings or speeds auto select got it all on my ECS 785g Black Edition board
Cons: none
Overall Review: try to get ram when its on sale or free shipping always more bang for the buck at newegg with patience
Pros: Asus equals A-plus and quiet
Cons: none
Overall Review: would have been nice if it came with oem software
Pros: All my home Pc's are at least 2yrs old took out the processors cleaned them and heatsinks with Tul's thermal grease remover then re-greased them with xigmatek and pow my temps lowered and performance seemed smoother or was I kidding myself. Ha lets stick to facts temps went down 3-5 degrees so it did help
Cons: no peel n stick applicator lol
Overall Review: would buy again
Pros: None Newegg took the defective thing back printed me a return postage paid label and gave me a refund I love Newegg. Could of been a bargain had it worked
Cons: Many once I got it installed it would randomly lock up tried it on my desktop, laptop and a pc I had just built for a customer at first install the mouse would work with plug n play drivers, once I reboot the mouse would freeze keyboard never worked properly
Overall Review: Don't know if I got one with a faulty reciever or what but Windows Vista and Windows 7 big fail on this end
Pros: Its nice and compact perfect for htpc case as board is just a bit smaller than other micro atx boards. Nice features all in all would buy again for a budget build.
Cons: updated bios now acc won't work fails to enter windows yet the sempron 140 I'm using works just fine as dual core on Asus board, and was working on this board till I updated bios.
Overall Review: no spdif out built in to back plate and doesn't come with a bracket for it either
Pros: This has become my default build for budget minded people who want an HTPC and all around pc for general tasks like home office/online video/light game play Sempron 140 2.7ghz 45watt, Powercolor 3450 256mb Graphics Card, 2gb ram, AMD785g chipset motherboard, I also throw in a dvdrw and media card reader, wireless keyboard n mouse its a perfect compact low wattage energy saving pc that plays blu-ray, netflix, hulu, h264, and much more runs Vista or Win 7 just fine.
Cons: none so far
Overall Review: You could spend more but why this one goes on sale regularly the fan is not as loud as some say. if its positioned in the upright position with the fan at the top gives you the best cooling vs being on its side.Slim Modern Design fits nearly anywhere and looks like part of your entertainment system
Pros: This little guy paired with AMD 780g/785g motherboard and Hybrid Crossfire enabled is gives fantastic performance for everyday tasks, gaming on any older games even FarCry looks Terrific, plus Smooth Blu-Ray/HD Video Playback its low cost as are most of the mobos I mentioned. HDMI/DVI/VGA who could ask for more at this price point and you get DirectX 10.1 I love it simply perfect for my HTPC hooked up to 37" hdtv and built one for my nephew who has it hooked up to 52" Samsung. Netflix, Hulu, Crackle, Youtube all look great too.
Cons: it doesn't come with a case badge/sticker lol I like those
Overall Review: If your on a budget but want good performance try this combo its all I even build now unless its for high end gaming Sempron 140 2.7ghz/ECS780g/2gb pc6400/500gb Caviar Blue WD with this video card you won't be dissapointed performs very well and at a low price
Pros: HDMI, Passive Cooling for quiet operation, Low Profile Bracket included, Direct X 10.1, Hybrid Crossfire ready perfect match to 780/785g chipsets. Just enough ram for the average home user and video enthusiast. Online Streaming looks Great(Netflix, Hulu) and Games like Dungeon Siege, Rise of Nations, Half Life look good play well Facebook Games look great. Plays Blu-Rays seamlessly and upscales standard DVD's.
Cons: It does get a little hot and takes up two slots due to large cooling unit. I reccomend if possible to put a pci slot fan if you u play alot of games and run pc for many hours.
Overall Review: While its not necessary to have a fan on this card its always a good idea to have good circulation in your case. This will also help take the load off your processor during any game or video activities thereby increasing overall performance. Keep your Drivers Up to date
Pros: I really like these and have been putting them in all my recent Builds. Perfect for striking a balance between power consumption and speed, at 320gb the average home user has plenty of storage. Especially these days when more and more people Archive their files in the Cloud or onto external devices
Cons: I wish it ran a little cooler but I don't want to sacrifice speed
Overall Review: If your looking to create Low Power with Good Performance Workstations, or General Purpose custom builds this is great and even better for HTPC as those cases have tight fits with little air circulation as the objective is for the system to be quiet but to remain cool. This does the trick.
Pros: Well it works with XP and thats a plus good for older systems that have poor or dead integrated sound. Pretty Much just plug it in thats always nice
Cons: Price seems a bit high
Pros: I was suprised at the speed in transfering large video and photo files my last drive was slower
Cons: its not a flashlight too
Overall Review: Get a larger capacity I got this one on sale otherwise would have passed for 8gb or higher
Pros: I have to admit I always buy whatever brand of burner is on sale to save my customers a few bucks here and there so I was very surprised by the quietness of this unit. Quick pick up when u insert a disc.
Cons: none
Overall Review: Well priced quality drive
Pros: Very easy to install, Seagates website offers some additional tools if you should ever need them. Good warranty, quality builds.
Cons: none
Overall Review: I'm always looking for Quality and Price with Seagate and Newegg those two objectives often meet
Pros: I have been buying transcend for awhile now very good product usually at a good price too
Cons: none
Overall Review: try to buy it on sale however its usually priced lower than other brands and functions just as well
Pros: Stable quality Ram never fails there are other Brands but PNY always delivers easy to install good warranty
Cons: None
Overall Review: try to stock up when its on sale
Pros: I play all my Games, do video processing much faster than my Athlon X2 this processor is Incredible all the Features of a Quad in a Dual Core I never overclock because it disables the energy saving features in AMD's Cool N Quiet technology I totally reccomend this processor at 80watts, 6mb L3 Cache it kicks the hiney off my Amd Phenom Kuma black edition go Phenom II X2 some AM2+ boards can fit this Processor but I bought the ECS A785GM-M3 Black Edition Micro-ATX board and 3gb of DDR3 Ram with Windows Vista Ultimate Edition SP2 its so snappy and responsive.
Cons: none the stock heatsink works fine and mine is very quiet
Overall Review: You could buy a Quad but why if you just want a fast good cpu or on a budget you just can't go wrong with this cpu many current programs don't even recognize the Quad cores full potential but Dual Cores have been around long enough for software to catch up I'm very happy with this cpu and you will be.
Overall Review: will updates this reveiw if I ever get made whole |

Dominating retail, airlines and financial services industries, loyalty programs are common practice. And for good reason: studies have shown it can cost a business anywhere from 5 to 25 times (Harvard Business Review) more to acquire a new customer than to retain an existing one.
But creating a loyalty program from scratch is a significant project. There are many factors to consider, and without a strong foundation your efforts may fall flat. Use the tips below to get started with a loyalty program that delivers tangible results.
Effective Rewards Programs – Top 10 Rules
1. Business Objectives are your foundation
Ask yourself what you are hoping to achieve here. Loyalty programs can benefit all types of business, but without a solid strategy you could be wasting precious time and money. Think about your wider business objectives, and set goals based on this. Focusing on the growth required, and dollar value that can be given back to your clients will set your foundation.
2. Build a unique experience
Create a unique program your customers will love. Focus on your unique product/service offering to offer benefits and rewards that align to your industry and brand. Creating a unique experience will not only influence behaviour but can create a lasting memory on your clients.
3. Ignore the data noise
With any new rewards program, a new breadth of data will emerge. With so many metrics at your disposal, it can be tempting to track and report on every single data point. Identify what is most important to your business and focus on only the things that matter.
4. Keep it simple
If you can’t explain your rewards program in four sentences you’ve gone too far. Keep it simple stupid. Set up a clear framework and make sure this is fully explained to all users so they understand how the system works and what benefits they can expect to receive.
5. Do your research
Offer the rewards your customers want and need. It’s a good idea to run a survey or poll to understand what would most benefit your customers. Allowing your customers to shape and build the rewards available will enable an extended level of interaction with your program.
6. Align to your brand
Value the things your brand values. For example, if your company prides itself on being environmentally conscious, offer double points on your most environmentally conscious products.
7. Make it omni-channel
Invest in ease for your customers. They should be able to buy products on mobile, desktop and in store, with a seamless experience throughout. Their rewards features should update as quickly as possible after every qualifying event and should be accessible from any device.
8. Serve Personalised Data
With new rewards and points data available in your business, serve your customers with insights into their points and rewards developments. Staying front of mind in your customers will enable them to get the most out of their program.
9. Test and learn
It’s extremely damaging to a company’s reputation to launch a loyalty program, only to shut it down a few months later. Identify a small group of beta users, test your program and adapt it based on any issues that are identified. Don’t release the full version until you are confident it can operate without a hitch.
10. Optimize constantly
Creating a rewards program isn’t a one-and-done activity. Continue to monitor engagement levels and new sign-ups to see which aspects are performing well, and cut back on areas that aren’t delivering results.
When planned and implemented correctly, loyalty programs can be a huge tool in improving the profitability of an organization. No matter the size or sector of your business, there’s a system that can work to increase profitability and encourage loyal consumers. |
Ann Arbor is a city in the US state of Michigan. It is the county seat of Washtenaw County. According to the 2010 United States Census, Ann Arbor was the 6th largest city in Michigan. In 2010, there were 113,934 people living there. The city is part of the Detroit Metropolitan Combined Statistial Area.
Ann Arbor was started in 1824. It is thought that the city is named after the wife, Ann, of one of the founders. The University of Michigan was moved to Ann Arbor in 1837. (Before that, the university had been in Detroit.) The city grew during the 1800s and 1900s. The only time the city did not grow was the Depression of 1873.
During the 1960s and 1970s, Ann Arbor was an important place for the Civil Rights Movement, the anti-Vietnam War movement, and for left-wing and liberal politics.
Today, Ann Arbor is home to the University of Michigan. The university is very important to the city because 30,000 people work for it. 12,000 of these workers work for the University of Michigan Health System, which are hospitals and clinics run by the university. Ann Arbor's economy is also very high-tech. High-tech companies come to the area because there are many graduates and a lot of research and development money at the university.

Today's nail of the day is one of my favorite polishes from 2011, OPI's "Pros and Bronze" from the Serena Williams Glam Slam collection. "Pros and Bronze," unlike it's name, is not bronze relative to other polishes such as OPI's "Brisbane Bronze" or China Glaze's "Harvest Moon." It is a golden-orange foil with some multicolored glitter in it. It is a very unique color and I love it.
When I saw OPI's "Goldeneye" from the new Skyfall Collection, as well as Zoya's "Tiffany," I thought they somewhat resembled "Pros and Bronze." However, from the swatches below, you can tell that they look nothing alike!
Though I realize this is silly I always pick a special polish to wear for special holidays. Last year, I deliberated between this polish and OPI's "Warm and Fozzie" to wear for Thanksgiving Day. "Pros and Bronze" ended up winning for Thanksgiving Day 2011.
The formula on this polish, though rather water-y, still applies very smoothly. I needed 3 coats so there was no visible nail line.
As you can see, I went a little photo-crazy with this one. Just had to make sure I could capture it properly for the unique polish it is. Even my sister, who primarily sports nudes and/or natural nails, loves this polish and has stolen it from me on various accounts.
Though I already wore this polish for Thanksgiving Day 2011 I am tempted to wear it again for Thanksgiving Day 2012 as well.
this color is very pretty! maybe my orange-hesitant self will consider this in the future. look at me growing my temptations list..
what a beautiful shade!

Political Fix Florida: Edison College name change bill goes to governor
Edison College President Jeff Allbritten unveils the school's new name, Florida SouthWestern State College
We focus on all things politics in the Sunshine State. We are the joint Bureau of E.W. Scripps / Tampa Tribune in Tallahassee.
Edison College name change bill goes to governor
All that stands between Edison State College and its new name is Gov. Rick Scott's signature.
The Florida House voted 113-2 Thursday to approve Senate Bill 236, which would rename Edison State College.
Edison, which serves Lee, Charlotte, Collier, Glades and Hendy counties, would become Florida SouthWestern State College.
Edison State College trustees agreed to the name change for the Fort Myers-based school because of the possibility of a trademark-infringement lawsuit from Thomas Edison State College in Trenton, N.J. The New Jersey school trademarked its name about a decade ago.
The bill, which already has been approved by the state Senate, now heads to Scott for his signature.
Hudson wants to privatize Medicaid agency's legal counsel
The House's top health care budget-writer is proposing privatizing the legal staff for Florida's top Medicaid agency.
State Rep. Matt Hudson, R-Naples, said the Agency for Health Care Administration already contracts with the Attorney General's Office and has outside legal help, so he thinks the plan could help simplify things.
"I was trying to come up with one methodology to accomplish it all," said Hudson, doesn't call for farming out the agency's legal team. Hudson said it's an effort to become more efficient.
"You have got in-house, you have got the attorney general, you're already looking at doing some out of house, why don't we just do all of it," he said. "That was me looking at an efficiency issue."
Gov. Scott top staffer selling Jacksonville home
Adam Hollingsworth, the top staffer for Gov. Rick Scott, has put his Jacksonville house on the market and has no plans to leave Tallahassee.
His 2,532-square-foot house has been on the market for several days, according to the Fred Miller Group, which is listing the house. Hollingsworth is asking $699,000 for the four-bedroom home, which he has owned since 2005. It is in Jacksonville's Ingleside Heights neighborhood.
Hollingsworth and his family moved to Tallahassee in July 2012 when he became Scott's chief of staff. He originally planned to return to Jacksonville after his time in Scott's office.
"As the parents of two young kids, Adam and his wife have determined that it's the right decision for their family at this time," said John Tupps, a spokesman for Scott's office.
He wouldn't elaborate further as to the motivation behind the move.
Hollingsworth is likely to play a role in Scott's re-election campaign, which could be easier from Tallahassee.
State teachers union refutes Common Core claim
The Florida Education Association (FEA) is refuting a claim that the state has been teaching Common Core State Standards, which serve as the basis of the new Florida Standards, since 2010.
In a letter to House Speaker Will Weatherford, FEA President Andy Ford said while the standards were adopted in June 2010, the implementation plan wasn't published until spring 2011.
The standards were fully implemented in kindergarten during the 2011-12 school year. During that same year, Ford said in his letter, the Florida Department of Education said the literacy standards would be implemented in all areas for grades six through 12.
Starting in 2012-13, the standards were to be implemented in kindergarten through first grade. This school year, standards needed to be fully in place for kindergarten through second grade.
"As you can clearly see, full implementation of the Florida standards from K-12 has not yet occurred," Ford said in his letter, sent to all members of the state House. "Professional development and aligned resources are not yet fully available to Florida teachers. Our teachers need more time, more resources and more training to prepare themselves and their students for the deep learning required by these new standards."
The letter to Weatherford comes just days after the state House education appropriations subcommittee approved changes to Florida's school accountability and teacher evaluation system.
This is the last year the FCAT, the current statewide assessment, will be used to calculate new grades. A new test developed by the not-for-profit American Institutes for Research will be used beginning in 2014-15.
Red light camera bill repeal gets watered down

Ready for some Texas barbecue this summer?
The short-lived Cornerstone Market, on the Fishtown-Northern Liberties border at 19-21 W. Girard Ave., is being primed for Bubba's Texas BBQ, a sitdowner with bar attached to the open kitchen. (All hinges on community approval.)
Steve Ehrenhalt, the developer who owns the building, is partnering with Robert "Bubba" Kolbasowski, a native of Austin, Texas, who now lives in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. The two met 20 years ago when Kolbasowski, then site superviser for a construction company, pulled up with his smoker on a trailer.
Kolbasowski seems quite proud of his rig -- a 10-by-17-foot, 7,000-pound thingamabob that he pulls around town, drawing droolers as he passes.
He says his brisket is smoked for 24 to 30 hours at 160 degrees -- "so tender, you could cut it with a feather."
Hyperbole? Fishtown will see firsthand on March 8 when Kolbasowski pulls it up to the neighborhood meeting.
Speaking of Fishtown, Stephen Starr is saying May 1 for his beer garden on Frankford Avenue, around the corner. (Name TBA.) |

As 2019 comes to an end, the Pennsylvania Department of State is excited to share highlights from what's been a busy and productive year:
Leading Pennsylvania and Nationwide
On November 19, Kathy Boockvar was confirmed as the 33rd Secretary of the Commonwealth after serving as Acting Secretary since January.
This summer, Secretary Boockvar was appointed to serve as the co-chair of the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS) Elections Committee. Through this committee, Secretary Boockvar works with her co-chair and Secretaries of State across the country to share best practices and provide the most secure and accessible elections to all eligible voters.
Secretary Boockvar also serves as a NASS representative on the Election Infrastructure Subsector Government Coordinating Council (EIS-GCC), a first of its kind collaboration among federal, state and local officials. The Council is focused on securing elections; working to formalize and improve information-sharing and communication protocols; and ensuring that timely threat information, support and resources reach all election officials so they can respond to threats as they emerge.
Securing Our Elections
The Department of State moved its election-day operations to the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA) facility for the first time for the May 21 primary. The move, which the department repeated for the November 5 general election, allowed state election experts, security professionals, department staff, call center volunteers and state emergency personnel to closely monitor developments throughout the day from one location with PEMA's state-of-the-art resources close at hand.
In September, Secretary Boockvar testified at a hearing on "Securing America's Elections" before the Judiciary Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives. The hearing may be seen here, and Secretary Boockvar's written testimony may be found here.
Philadelphia and Mercer counties piloted the first risk-limiting audits in Pennsylvania following the November election. These highly effective audits are scientifically designed to check the accuracy of election outcomes. Read more about post-election audits.
By December 30, all 67 counties took action toward acquiring new voting systems that meet updated security, accessibility and auditability standards. Most counties used their new voting systems in the November 5 election. The remainder will deploy their new systems in the April 28, 2020, primary.
Registering Corporations & Charities
In 2019, the Bureau of Corporations and Charitable Organizations (BCCO) registered 10,660 charities and 379 professional fundraisers. Over the course of the year, military veterans saved a total of $353,750 as a result of fee exemptions for 3,118 new business filings.
Licensing Pennsylvania's Professionals
To better serve the licensing community, the Bureau of Professional and Occupational Affairs (BPOA) launched online Professional Licensing Guides in 2019 that provide applicants with complete information about the process and expected timeframes for receiving their licenses. Pennsylvania is one of only a handful of states across the country that provides full transparency into the licensure process from start to finish, along with recommendations for how to reduce delays. Each licensing board and commission will have their own navigator webpage with specific information for each license type.
Regulating State Athletics
The State Athletic Commission (SAC) regulates and monitors professional and amateur boxing, kickboxing, Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and professional wrestling contests in the commonwealth. SAC also registers all athletic agents doing business in Pennsylvania.
In 2019, the commission was once again one of the most active athletic commissions in the country, having regulated 36 pro boxing events, 26 MMA events, 11 Kickboxing/Muay-tai events and more than 300 pro wrestling events. The SAC also sanctioned nine televised events that were broadcast on ShowTime, ESPN, DANZ and Fox Sports.
The Pennsylvania Department of State wishes all Pennsylvanians a happy, healthy new year. We look forward to continuing to serve you in 2020.. |
"Always on My Mind" is a 1972 ballad written by Wayne Carson and first released by Brenda Lee for her studio album Brenda.
Elvis Presley version
Elvis Presley recorded his own version of Always on My Mind following his separation from Priscilla. It was released as an A-side to his single Separate Ways and went to number 9 in the United Kingdom and Ireland, number 17 in the Netherlands. It also went to number 4 on the Canadian country single charts and number 16 on the Billboard Hot Country charts. It went on to be covered by Willie Nelson in 1982 and Pet Shop Boys in 1987. |
Honey…To Love You Is My Ambition
I Love You With No Condition
by Freeyad Ibrahim
I've got just one ambition
To Love you without condition
I think before taking decision
But your love is beyond decision
your face is a pure perfection
No need then for any addition
Come up to my garden of love
Without asking for permission
I love you with no condition
Be merciful I feel alone
I wait for a faint breeze passage
To give it an oral message
It is not sin to love darling
All prophets loved before
they received divine message
Nothing is sacred as passion
Loving is alike Loving the god
Makes you fine..makes you divine
Until the Day of Resurrection

'Gotham's Riddler Strikes For The First Time
In a truly shocking development on Gotham, the Riddler sent Jim Gordon to prison after revealing his involvement with the death of Theo Galavan. Ed Nygma fully embraced his evil side, concocting an elaborate plan in order to frame Jim for the murder of a supposed witness who saw him killing Theo Galavan. It's pretty impressive that for his first outing as the Riddler, Ed already managed to find his signature symbol, the green question mark, and successfully execute both of his plans, getting Jim to walk straight into a trap that led Captain Barnes to find him standing over the dead witness, fingerprints on the murder weapon.
And when Jim realized he was totally screwed, he seemed to accept his fate with some dignity. He said a heartfelt goodbye to Harvey, who promises to get him out of Blackgate, and even asked Dr. Thompkins to take the baby and get far away from Gotham City. This is a bit of an unconventional Riddler, as he's just as much of a vigilante as he is a villain at this point. Jim Gordon did kill Galavan, and lied about it, sending Penguin to prison in his place. Of course, he's really only doing this in order to stop the investigation into his murder of Kristen Kringle and her ex, Tom, so... I guess he's still pretty villainous.
But seeing Jim Gordon in handcuffs shipped off to Blackgate Prison wasn't the only big surprise in the episode. The last glimpse of Barbara was her lying in a hospital bed in Arkham. But almost as if she knew that Jim was suddenly single, she woke dramatically from her coma, prompting the nurse to call Dr. Hugo Strange, who's been experimenting on his patients. He might try to give her supernatural powers, or, perhaps, torture her into sanity, the way he did with Penguin. Either way, with Jim in prison, Lee should be wary — definitely lock the doors at night, because I predict Barbara might try to pay her a visit.

I am a Man!
5/30/2018

When I watch countless police brutality videos as I scroll through my social media feed I see a common theme. The theme is that white police are the enemy of Black men, women, and children. If this violence was contained to a certain location or Black male cops were slamming handcuffed teenage white girls and shooting unarmed white men in front of their families I would claim it was just poor policing. There is no alarming rate of multiracial victimization by the police.
But!
But when I see the police handle white mass murders with kid gloves and even take them for a bite to eat, my mind state shift to the American reality for Black people. The police are the legacy of the paddy rollers from slavery. It is their inherent nature to be hostile towards Black people in this country.
Inside of me is a silent rage that I wish would die out, but it can’t. The fuel of injustice constantly feed that flame. I understand why Huey P Newton and Bobby Seale took such an aggressive legal stance in policing the policing.
I am a man!
Or!
I am a coward!
These are the thoughts that ring out in my mind as I view clip after clip of this barbaric behavior being executed against my people from mindless drones. They don’t even think like hey this could my daughter, son, father, mother, or neighbor. We are just the enemy to these pale faces.
The NFL worried about a fucking knee. The reality is fuck your flag, your anthem and your pigskin. It you are not concern on the WHY the knee was taking in the first place.
When the inner man becomes the outer man don’t cry, don’t scream foul, don’t beg for mercy; just know that the pendulum has swung against you.
I cry tears of discipline and strength. That the dam that contains the Ogun spirit in me doesn’t break.

Western pattern: ‘Seek out ethnic tensions, inflame & use as leverage to serve your agenda’
Some media outlets are accusing Russia of trying to erase Crimean Tatar culture after authorities moved to repair the crumbling Big Khan Mosque, which is one of the largest on the peninsula and part of the Khan Palace.
The remarkable example of Crimean Tatar palace architecture is the subject of numerous works by Russian writers, musicians and poets.
RT: Why have media outlets described the reconstruction of a crumbling mosque as Russia erasing Crimean Tatar culture?
Dan Glazebrook: The West has this tendency to scan the globe in search of any ethnic tensions – real or imagined – that it can leverage to serve its own agenda. This is clearly what is happening here. This happens for two main reasons. One, if there is a conflict which can be presented as an evil boogeyman like Russia crushing an oppressed minority or nation. It does two things. One, it serves the ideological interests of the West because it allows the West to present itself as the antithesis of whatever this demonized enemy boogeyman is. In this case Russia. And secondly, by creating a victim, it allows the West to ride in and portray itself as the savior who is going to save that victim, potentially even through war. We’ve seen this many times. We’ve seen this most clearly perhaps with the 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia which was all justified in the name of saving the Albanians. But every invasion that the West have launched since then has been justified to some degree along the lines of this pathological ‘victim-savior complex.’ Whether it was the invasion of Iraq – which was ostensibly, in some measure, some kind of revenge on behalf of the Kurds of Halabja – or whether it was saving the victims, the people of Benghazi in the 2011 bombing of Libya. So, this is a distinct and established pattern of behavior by the West – to seek out ethnic tensions, to inflame them, exaggerate them, exacerbate them, leverage them to serve their own agenda. And I think the agenda in this case in Crimea is pretty clear. Ukraine and the West want to paint the incorporation of Crimea into Russia, which was legitimized by a referendum, as illegitimate, to delegitimize it, and paint it even genocidal.
To backtrack a little bit, to think about what this issue is about, the Big Khan Mosque. Whenever you get a renovation of a historic monument, there is always going to be grievances and complaints over the way in which it’s done, the manner in which it is carried out. No doubt many of these complaints would be legitimate and no doubt in this case many of the complaints will be legitimate. But that is a far cry from deducing from the existence of such complaints that there is some kind of ethic genocide going on against the Tatars which is exactly what the Ukrainian minister of culture has portrayed this as. I think that interests are very clear: Ukraine and the West seem to demonize Russia, this is an ongoing campaign. And potentially, to portray themselves as the saviors of the Tatars…I don’t think it is going to be used as in a case of Serbia for a war any time soon. But it is all a part of the overall program of delegitimizing, demonizing Russia. That is the overall context, I would say.
RT: Critics say the palace will be lost with this work, but wouldn't it be lost if the roof fell in?
DG: Yes, of course, this is exactly why these kind of renovations attract controversy, because obviously if you don’t renovate, than there is a danger of the whole structure collapsing and if you do renovate, of course, you are going to have alterations to the historic structure. And that is going in some cases to ruffle feathers and some people may not like the way in which it is done. And inevitably you are going to be ‘tempering’ to some degree with the historical structure of the building. To do nothing could also be potentially one day portrayed as some kind of cultural genocide. Whatever is done, can always be painted and portrayed in a way to make it look devious. The reality is there is no way to preserve history in its entirety without touching it at all, it is just not possible. |

and it is not because i don't have nice wool. i have lots of nice yarn. for instance i have a whole cone of perfectly good jaggerspun zephyr that would go well with the smoke ring i would like to knit. anyway i found myself stressing around all over copenhagen to buy qiviuk that i cannot really afford and because last friday was a bad day i wanted to cry or stamp my feet because no one seemed to carry it. and it almost went that way since i slipped on the slippery floor of one of the lys's and then i really wanted to cry. especially since they only had worsted weight qiviuk. it is obsessive and in sane and the fate of many knitters. why do we so desperately want to beaver more wool than with could ever knit in to projects??? well maybe i will be happy it this financial crisis gets any worse. but i am an optimist and it is nothing i really think about on a regular basis.
and after the qiviuk story i told myself that it was crazy so why did i go to a yarn store yesterday and buy the olive green yarn for a dress for alba???? there is a plenitude of things i could knit her out of the yarn i have in my cabinet??? useful warm hats and cowls for winter it is not like she is in terrible need of a knitted olive green dress??
i wonder why it becomes so obsessive and actually i think this is very much influenced by the internet. in the old knitting days i didn't buy more yarn than i needed and only bought anything if it was needed for a project. now i obsess though i think some people would consider my obsessing that of a novice. but i cannot bear to live without a qiviuk smokering or whatever until the next day or week when i want something else. maybe i should get a more meaningful hobby like helping out the homeless where i would surely be more able to draw a line.
PS: sorry about the lousy quality of the pics recently. when i looked out the window an hour ago i was thinking about the bob dylan song that starts with the line: darkness at the break of noon. so please forgive me.

I totally identify with your post. I too am in a period of transition, and knitting is getting me through it. But with the massive internet resources available, it is very easy to get sucked into obsessive thinking about the projects one could or should make. Oddly enough, I was ravelling the exact same "smoke ring" that you were at almost the same time. When I went to check my Ravelry friends' activities, there were the same projects I had just looked at.
I don't have any good advie other than to say be kind to yourself, especially as the winter doldrums set in...
I completely agree - the internet is culpable. Too bad you can't sue Al Gore for damages...
Darling girl, we're all in this same obsessive boat! I have a whole workroom jammed with yarn, and still I want more, more, more.
And now you've reminded me that I HAVE the smoke ring pattern - maybe I need some more really really beautiful yarn to make it?
the internet does encourage a certain level of covetous thoughts - so much you haven't seen yourself pops up...
and I totally relate to the driven desire for a particular yarn/shade, despite the many many options lurking in one's stash - I don't know what the answer is though, because I've tried shopping from my stash and it just never seems to be as satisfying!
I too have lots of stash, nevertheless I just came back from Britain with 100 balls (yes one hundred) of yarn in the caravan! But I think this obsession is harmless (and a lot cheaper) compared with betting or collecting oldtimers to name but a few. Happy knitting,

I think Bettedesign has quiviut... For the next time you are in Kbh.
Half my room is ISOLATED with wool. It would take me decades to knit it all. Perhaps one should give some of the not so beloved away... and then buy new :-) |

Since leaving the X Factor, Tamera Foster has been keeping herself busy. Performing at gigs, giving interviews about rumoured boyfriends and joining the Fire and Rescue service?
Well not quite, but she did pose for a photo with some fire-fighters from Thames-side Fire Station aka Green Watch. The 16-year-old was doing some Christmas shopping in Gravesend, Kent with her mum yesterday, when she was stopped by the crew to talk about their winter safety campaign.
Tamera returned to her north-west Kent home, after she was voted off the X Factor last week in a emotional sing off versus Luke Friend.
Unfortunately there aren’t any pictures of Tamera sliding down a fireman’s pole. But we made one for you, because we know it’s the only reason why you clicked on this article.
Oops wrong pole… |
Garlic (species Allium sativum) is a type of plant that people eat for food. Garlic is related to onions, shallots, and leeks. It has a very strong flavor and smell. Most of the time, people use it as a flavoring so that it helps make food taste better.
Garlic is used as herbal medicine in the treatment of cold and flu. It has side effects of heartburn, flatulence and sweating.
The part of the garlic plant that people eat is called the head. It grows at the bottom of a long green stalk. People pull the head apart into smaller pieces called cloves of garlic. Cloves have papery skin on them. People peel off the skin before cooking the cloves.
People plant garlic in the fall right after the first frost. They plant the clove like a seed. One clove can grow into a whole head. The garlic plant grows its roots before the ground freezes for winter. People harvest (collect) the garlic in the middle of the next summer.
Folklore
Garlic is in legends about vampires. In these legends, vampires do not like garlic. Garlic keeps vampires away. Writers for the Toronto Garlic Festival say this might be because the vampire legend comes from the disease porphyria. People with porphyria do not like to eat foods that have sulfur in them, like garlic. |

Hotels in Kalamaki
Located 65 km from the city of Heraklion, Kalamaki is a classic tourist destination for those seeking to make the most of southern Crete. With a number of excellent beaches, tavernas and plenty of Kalamaki hotels to choose from you can shape your holiday to suite your budget. This is a place to relax and unwind. Although it doesn't have the same party atmosphere of some of the nearby towns such as Matala and Agia Galini, both are within easy reach.
Things to do:
Built along a magnificent sandy beach in Messara Bay during the 1970's, Kalamaki is a relatively new town, with no historic buildings to speak of. There are however plenty of ancient villages to visit nearby, including Kamilari and Kommos. It also sports excellent transport links, a great bus service and easy access to a number of historic sites within the area.
Although the town itself boosts no notable historic buildings, the area has been inhabited for centuries during the Minoan, Hellenistic and Roman periods. As a result there's some major archaeological sites to visit nearby, including the ancient port of Phaistos, the Palies eklisies, an 18th century church built on an earlier Roman temple, the ruins of a royal Minoan Palace called Agia Triada, and Gortys, the remains of a settlement which has been inhabited for almost 6000 years.
To immerse yourself further in the history of this beautiful island, visit the museum of Cretan Ethnolog and the village of Svas. To access its natural beauty, hike along the spectacular gorges of Agiofarago and Martsalo, with their biblical landscape and paths leading to an azure sea. Alternatively climb up to Kamares Cave.
For translucent water and a long stretch of golden sand, Kalamaki beach, with its tavernas, cafés, shops and bars is a perfect spot to enjoy the sun. Water sports such as canoeing and windsurfing are available and if you're really lucky, you can catch the hammerhead turtles nesting, or their young scurrying back to the sea. Alternatively, visit the Matala beach with its ‘hippy caves' or the bustling waterfront and welcoming cafés of Kokkinos Pyrgos beach.
Facilities:
Kalamiki offers everything you need for an enjoyable and restful stay. Sunbeds and umbrellas are widely available on the beach. With plenty of tavernas, cafés and restaurants sprinkled along the seafront, there's no shortage of tempting places to eat out as you watch the sunset. Although shopping is limited to the basics in Kalamaki, it offers all of the necessities, such as a pharmacy, minimarkets, car rental service and cashpoints, as well as some souvenir shops. For a more satisfying retail experience, try the neighbouring towns of Tymbaki or Moires.
