Amid all the recent talk of Origami and other ultramobile PCs comes news of a rather cool-looking little 7-ounce wrist-worn PC from the Eurotech Group. Definitely ultramobile, and apparently ultrawearable to boot.
The Eurotech WWPC (wrist-worn personal computer) runs Linux or WindowsCE, features standard PC interfaces such as WLAN, Bluetooth and USB and comes with audio mini-speakers, a direct-access keypad, touch-screen and built-in GPS receiver.
Eurotech is targeting the indoor-outdoor product at people in potentially hard-core situations such as emergency rescue, security and health care. As such, according to press materials out on Tuesday, the wearable PC features a "tilt-and-dead reckoning system" that detects if the operator has been motionless for a certain length of time. Under these circumstances, a location beacon can be transmitted.The company says it guarantees operations for more than eight hours.

The popular story of how low-carb diets work goes something like this: Reducing your carbohydrate in...
Let me introduce myself. My name is Mark Sisson. I'm 63 years young. I live and work in Malibu, California. In a past life I was a professional marathoner and triathlete. Now my life goal is to help 100 million people get healthy. I started this blog in 2006 to empower people to take full responsibility for their own health and enjoyment of life by investigating, discussing, and critically rethinking everything we've assumed to be true about health and wellness...Tell Me More
For today's edition of Dear Mark, I'm answering 11 questions. I answer questions about nutrient deficiencies and tremors, breastfeeding on the 21-Day Primal Blueprint Challenge, cheating without apparent consequences, sun exposure without vitamin D, maintaining insulin sensitivity, going high protein, recovering from a labral tear, going 90/10 vs. 80/20, black beans vs. potatoes, why I chose to live in Malibu, and recovering minerals lost to glycogen depletion.
Let's go:Read More
People frequently wax sentimental for what they call "simpler" days—presumably times when the rules were fewer and clearer, when choices weren't so overwhelming, when demands were less and common sense was more prevalent. Eating, of course, is no exception to this. If you listen to the dominant voices in the social-media-marketing-medical culture, it's enough to ruin your dinner and make you feel guilty for skipping breakfast (Don't buy the guilt trip). We're fed contradictory studies, warned of the latest threats lurking in our food supply, told every bite squashes the life out of another ecosystem, and led through fluorescent-lit warehouses filled with more food options and label claims than one person should ever be reasonably expected to handle. It's exhausting, frustrating and on certain days defeating. So what's a reasonable approach in an age when anxiety too often overtakes enjoyment of eating?Read More
We've heard it a million times: "Eat a well-balanced diet with everything in moderation." After all these decades of clear failure, it's a hazy cliché still delivered by physicians, dietitians and nutritional "experts" with earnest assurance. The same goes for exercise and stress. Moderate amounts of stress are okay, moderate cardiovascular work is good, etc. We accept the concept of moderation so readily, I think, because it sounds so rational and simple. If we follow common sense, moderation suggests, we'll be fine. But if it were that easy, most people would be healthy—and statistics on the rising rates of obesity and chronic illness tell us otherwise. So what's the problem?Read More
Most of us go Primal to solve problems created by Conventional Wisdom. The importance of whole grains and daily cardio, the dangers of dietary fat and animal protein, the primacy of carbohydrates for "energy,"—these untruths are promulgated so widely and fail so conclusively that you can't help but look to the people saying the opposite for direction. That's where we come in. Most of us go Primal to solve problems created by conventional dietary and lifestyle recommendations. Often these solutions involve doing the opposite of what the authorities are telling us. For the most part, it works.
Sometimes eschewing conventional advice goes too far, though. Sometimes we make serious blunders in our pursuit of Primal perfection.Read More
Are we shortchanging ourselves by complete elimination of potentially allergenic or sensitizing foods like wheat, peanuts, or dairy? Do we become even more sensitive to "bad" foods by avoiding them entirely? This question stems from two things I recently encountered. The first was a recent rewatcing of The Princess Bride. The second was the recent peanut allergy study.
If you haven't watched The Princess Bride yet, go do it (the book is also good) because a small spoiler is coming. The hero Wesley spikes the wine he and the villain Vizzini are sharing with iocane powder, a fictitious ultra-lethal poison that kills instantly. But because Wesley has spent the last several years ingesting incrementally-larger doses of the poison, he has complete resistance to its effects. Both men drink. Only Vizzini dies. What else can this apply to? I wondered.Read More
Being a Primal lifer is nice. You get to pat the heads and tousle the hair of precious newbies who just learned the words "lectin" and "phytate" and can't stop talking about it. Navigating your local farmer's market is a breeze, and you're such a regular that you can show up half an hour past closing and still get the choicest produce. But there are other benefits, too. Bits of wisdom that you glean over time, and that can only come from years of adherence. Today, I'm going to discuss the five biggest ones.
Newbies: don't expect to use these as a guide for your own immediate existence. These aren't necessarily suggestions. Much of what long term Primal adherents learn about their bodies and their lifestyles requires that they put in the time to learn the things directly. You can read about it, but don't be dismayed if you're unable able to implement or integrate them immediately.Read More

We had hockey, freezing rain, event cancellations, snow, shovelling, skating, sliding and hot chocolate.
Only thing missing was a warming supper.
On it.
So after my pulse-inspired posts last night, a friend, drew my attention to the "pulse pledge" that some individuals are taking. This is where you pledge to eat pulses, at least once per week, for 10 weeks.
While I have not formally committed to it...yet....I am certainly ok with trying to incorporate the idea for one meal a week.
So today..Chili.
|Rainbow chili in Emma's rainbow bowl that she painted...trippy
Totally made sense for the weather and activities we have been participating in. Plus, it really freezes well and makes excellent lunches.
This chili is a combo of some recipes thrown together...so much so, that I can't even remember who to connect it to!
Rainbow Veggie Chili with Pulses
2 tsp of canola or olive oil
1 package of ground beef or turkey (omit if you are going veggie)
1 white or purple onion
3 cloves of garlic, minced
2 stalks of celery, chopped
1 cup of chopped carrots
1 cup of chopped bell peppers (I used red and green)
1 tbsp of white sugar (takes some of the acidity out of the tomatoes)
2 large cans of salt-free diced tomatoes; undrained
1 can of drained and rinsed black beans or 2 cups of black beans cooked from dried form
1 can of drained and rinsed chickpeas or 2 cups of chickpeas cooked from dried form
1 can of drained and rinsed salt-free corn niblets
1 tablespoon of chili powder
2 pinches of chili flakes (optional)
1 tsp of cumin
1 tsp of dried oregano
1 tsp of dried coriander
salt and pepper to taste
(I also added a tsp of onion powder, cuz it was in my cupboard)
In a large pot, sautee meat with oil, until browned. Add chopped onion, celery, peppers and carrots and stir until softened.
Add spices to the pot, and stir around to toast them a minute before adding the undrained cans of tomatoes. Add the tablespoon of white sugar.
Cover and simmer until veggies are cooked...or up to an 1 hour.
Add corn, chickpeas and black beans.
Cook until beans/chickpeas are warmed through, and then it's ready to eat!
Serve with some yummy bread or rolls!
I also prefer it with grated cheese and a dollop of sour cream.
Today's a big week in our house!
Stay tuned for a revealing post in a few days :)

Check out the photos above for how dancers at Jacob's Pillow in Beckett, Mass., reacted to Mike Kaplan's vintage movie poster collection "Gotta Dance!"
Kaplan, who lives in Caldwell, owns one of the largest collections in the world of old-style movie posters. His collection of art from musicals from the U.S. and other countries is particularly fine. They feature vividly drawn images of Gene Kelly, Cyd Charisse, Eleanor Powell, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, Marge and Gower Champion and others.
The exhibit was at Jacob's Pillow to help celebrated Marge Campion's 95th birthday. It was exhibited in Blake's Barn, a building Champion donated to the venue 25 years ago. It's named for her son who died in a car accident in 1987. He was 25.
"There was a kinetic reaction from viewers enjoying the art of the dance movie poster," Kaplan wrote in an email. "The dancing images inspired direct participation and most had never looked at the movie poster as an art form."

I woke up at 8am this morning and Jack informed me he had a Lego lodged in his nose. I was not able to determine WHY he had stuck a Lego up his nose until later, but I could see that it was a small, one-unit round Lego. I grabbed a pair of tweezers to try to get it out but could not get a handle on the friggin' thing. Oh, and Jack doesn't know how to blow his nose. I know, weird. I woke David up to see if he had any ideas. He also tried with the tweezers but then sent me to the store for a nasal aspirator. I stopped for some coffee, as well. Hey, I needed something warm to hang onto!
Back home and the nasal aspirator didn't do a damned thing. Then we tried to get Jack to sneeze with pepper and feathers. No go! I started to get more desperate. I tucked his right nostril closed, had Jack close his mouth, and tried to suck that puppy out of the left nostril with my mouth. Yeah, ewwwww. Also, salty! I tried a couple times and it just wasn't working. ARG!
So at 9:30am we trotted down to Kaiser's emergency room. An ER nurse advised me to try reverse-CPR by pinching the unaffected nostril closed while blowing in Jack's mouth. Jack thought this was hilarious. I tried several times and again, no luck!
In comes the doctor. She had me try once again with the reverse CPR and saw that the Lego didn't move. She then got a few tools (longer tweezer type things with no sharp edges and an alligator clamp) and the nurses held Jack down, instructing him to only say "stop" if he felt pain. Jack pretended he was a dragon and told them "the dragon is scared." Telling them about the dragon distracted him enough and the doctor was able to use the tweezers to get the Lego out. Jack was as good as new!
We got a nice souvenir out of that $100 trip – the doc put the Lego in a specimen cup and gave Jack an Iron Man sticker. It was then that Jack told me the little red Lego was dragon fire…he had wanted to breathe fire out of his nose. Now that he has the Lego in the specimen cup, it is venom. Awesome.
Happy black Friday! And remember – the ER does not participate in post-Thanksgiving sales.

I have an iPad 3, and an iPhone 4. with iOS 6 just coming out, and me upgrading to an iPhone 5 on Friday when it's delivered, I decided to upgrade everything to iOS 6 before the rest of the world bombards Apple's servers with downloads. iPad upgrade worked flawlessly, my iPhone upgrade did not. Thankfully, I have iCloud set to back up the phone every night, except for my pictures. I have a feeling I just lost all my shit, as it's restoring right now.
Don't make the same mistake I did by trusting that the iOS upgrade process will work flawlessly.

There is no collusion because collusion is not a crime. How is Mueller so stupid?

Best answer: Because Mueller is bright enough to know that "collusion" is just another word for conspiracy, which IS a crime. It would be like saying we can't prosecute Joe for "ripping off" a car, or for "jacking" a car, because "rip off". and "jacking" is a word you cannot... show more

The Third Object
Membership Corner - November 18, 2013
Continuing the theme of the Object of Rotary, this week we will state the third object - " The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian's personal, business and community life". Service Above Self! The ideal of service! How do we live up to these grand ideas of service?
Posted by Thomas Sturiale
Membership Corner
The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise.
This week we will review the fourth statement defining the Object of Rotary - "The advancement of international understanding, goodwill and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service".

Everyone is working to increase membership and there are some bright spots - most notably the Rotary Club of Worcester, incredibly up to 35 new members in the last five months. What is working and what is not working? What should we do and how should we do it?
Posted by Thomas Sturiale
Membership Corner - December 9, 2013
The purpose of these weekly notes is to plant the seed of an idea in the minds of a few Rotarians in the many clubs of our district.
Hopefully, the cumulative effect will be to stimulate a greater and more sustained drive towards increasing our total membership and strengthening our clubs.

Now that the Bears can't make the playoffs, what changes should they make in the final three games?
Is it too late to add a cheerleading squad?
Actually start developing talent like Devin Aromashodu. The Bears need Aromatherapy.
Combine rosters with the Chicago Bliss. Urlacher'd be down for that.
Bring back the Spare Bears.
Lovie Smith, Jerry Angelo and Ron Turner should each start at QB to take the beatings they deserve.
Which Bears are making their final three starts with the team in the weeks ahead?
I'm not sure about the Bears, but Matt Forte isn't starting for me ever again in fantasy football.
Trick question. The prime candidates won't be playing because of injury or futility.
Orlando Pace will be making his final three false starts.
Let's hope Ted Phillips, Jerry Angelo and Ron Turner.
If Angelo remains in charge, Devin Aromashodu, Robbie Gould and Brad Maynard. You know, the guys playing well.
What would life be like for the Blackhawks if Patrick Kane were sidelined for a while?
The Patricks would be cut in half, leaving Sharp to carry the torch.
Like Rahula if he didn't shave for a month. He would sweat to death under a mass of hair.
We'll have 17 percent less "Chelsea Dagger" in our ears.
Old. The starting line's average age would rocket up to an ancient 23.
They'll finally be able to flag down a cab.
What's your explanation for the Bulls' slump as they prepare to face the L.A. Lakers?
They are stressed about the possibility of a non-white Christmas.
They know they can never earn a ring, so they hope Kobe slips up again and buys them one.
Lack of good coaching. Simple as that.
As for everything, I blame Aaron Miles.
No apple-related injuries to keep the team light-hearted and loose.
What advice could Kobe Bryant give Tiger Woods?
How to master a new stroke.
"Don't ever leave voicemails ... or DNA."
"My advice to you is to start drinking. Heavily."
How many diamonds he's going to give Elin for each chick he bagged (plus extra for the waitress at Perkins).
"Change your number. You don't wear a number? Well, you're screwed, man."

When it comes to sound quality, the most important decision you'll make for your stringed instrument are the string themselves. There is no 'one-size-fits-all' answer, so knowing what you're looking for in terms of tone and care (as everyone's situation will vary) is absolutely crucial for musicians. From cost, to temperature to individual preference, there are a variety of factors that need to be considered before a decision should be made.
If you're considering violin E-strings or viola A-strings one of the first things you'll probably notice is that they are offered with a ball end or loop end. In terms of sound creation this is no real difference, it all comes down to whether your instrument has fine tuners or not. If your 4-stringed instrument has a fine tuner for each string (and they are all identical with two prongs or a center-slit post), then you will most likely require a ball end E-string. On the other hand, if only the highest string has a hook-shaped fine tuner, you will need a loop end E-string.
Attached to the tailpiece, fine tuners are devices used to adjust your instrument's string pitch. By tightening or loosening the tension of a steel string, you're able to change the sound, making them an invaluable addition to most musicians' instruments.
Long lasting and almost completely unaffected by temperature and humidity changes, plain steel core strings are manufactured as a single alloy steel strand wrapped in a thin metal winding with some even being plated with other metals. Wound to tone down their inherent hissing sound, these strings produce a distinct tone and are quite durable and affordable, making them perfect for beginners.
Note: Fine tuners at the tailpiece are required due to lack of stretch in plain steel core strings.
Winding multiple steel strands together to form a rope, these strings have a warmer sound that plain steel strings, as well as a quicker response than gut core and synthetic strings. Preferred mostly by fiddlers, cellists and bassists in a variety of genres, these strings have a bright, complex tone with an instant response.
Crafted from thin threads of sheep or lamb intestines often wrapped in a thin metallic winding, these strings have a beautifully rich, warm tone. Sensitive to temperature and humidity changes though, gut core strings need added care in order to function at their highest capacity. As well, because of the amount of stretch needed to change the intonation, fine tuners are not used.
Note: If replacing you are strings with gut core, it's important to remember that these strings respond slower and take more time to stretch and stabilize.
Engineered to blend the durability of modern strings with the flexibility of natural gut, synthetic core strings are the most popular amongst veteran string musicians. As well, because they stabilize quickly, synthetic core only takes days instead of week to be used reliably. Most commonly crafted of perlon, these strings can vary greatly in sound quality, so make sure you research your strings adequately.
Remember, when selecting orchestral instrument strings you should always consider the musician's skill level, age and planned use. If you're a student, a great place to start is by speaking with your music or band teacher.
In the end, no matter which strings you decide on, if it's with Woodwind & Brasswind you'll have complete piece of mind. The Woodwind & Brasswind's 45-Day Lowest Price Guarantee means that if you find the same strings advertised for less elsewhere, we'll make up the difference. When you buy your strings from Woodwind & Brasswind, you can buy with complete confidence.*

Earnhart named groundwater operator of year
The work done to provide water 24 hours a day, seven days a week to thousands of Union County residents has received special recognition.
The Illinois Potable Water Supply Operators Association, IPWSOA, has recognized eight outstanding professionals in their individual categories of service.
These operators produce and supply drinking water for Illinois public water supply consumers.
Drinking water professionals and guests of the Illinois Potable Water Operators Association honored Edward Earnhart, the superintendent of the Anna-Jonesboro Water Commission, as groundwater operator of the year.
Matt Vasey with the Village of Fox Lake and James Mensendike with the Village of Elizabeth, were named as runners-up for the top spot.
All three individuals were recognized for their outstanding work in supplying safe drinking water on a daily basis to consumers, as well as their contributions to the industry and community.
Operators are rated on the day-to-day operation and maintenance of their facilities.
Earnhart was selected as operator of the year in the groundwater system category.
Earnhart has 30 years of experience in the water industry and holds a Class A water supply operator certificate.
He is responsible for all daily operation and maintenance activities associated with the Anna-Jonesboro Water Commission system.
Earnhart was an essential part of recent upgrades at the plant and at the facility's well fields.
Earnhart's nominator wrote: "Ed has given his whole life to being the best operator and provider he can be to the water industry, operations, and the community."
Earnhart said that his award is a reflection of the hard work done by the crew at the water commission plant, which is west of Jonesboro. "Nobody can do it by himself," he said.
The Anna-Jonesboro Water Commission treats and distributes approximately 1.3 million gallons of water per day to 26 service connections. The facility includes a well field and an iron removal treatment plant.
The commission provides water to Anna, Jonesboro, the Shawnee Valley Water District, Choate Mental Health and Developmental Center in Anna and part of the Lick Creek Public Water District. The commission serves SouthWater in the event of an emergency.
The Anna-Jonesboro Water Commission is governed by three commissioners. The commissioners are Brad L. Rendleman, Steven L. Guined and Douglas S. Edwards.
There are approximately 4,000 certified drinking water operators in the State of Illinois.
These operators were nominated by owners, operators and other professionals in the drinking water industry.
Finalists were then reviewed by other certified drinking water operators who serve on the operator of the year nomination and final selection committees of IPWSOA.
Operators of the year and nominees were honored during the association's recent 86th annual conference in Springfield.
Members from all areas of the state met to stay current on new industry regulations, equipment and processes.
Winners of the 2017 awards were announced and received their plaques during a three-day event. A traveling trophy also has been presented to the Anna-Jonesboro Water Commission.

Emma Watson sat down with Lin-Manuel Miranda, the star of Broadway hit musical Hamilton, for an an hour-long interview as part of UN Women's HeForShe Arts Week to raise awareness about gender equality.
In a four part series released on Thursday, Watson and Miranda discussed a myriad of topics ranging from feminism, storytelling, and history as part of the UN's promotion for International Women's Day.
Emma Watson drops a beat (Facebook/Lin-Manual Miranda)
While Watson asks Miranda to perform a rap about gender equality, the Harry Potter star in turn is tasked with providing back up in the form of beat boxing, something she's says no one should ever ask her to do again.
Miranda flies through his verses about equal pay and treatment of women like the pro that he is, but Watson turns bright red as she tries to keep up as the beat provider.
The actress and feminist proved she would go to any lengths to address gender inequality (Facebook/Lin-Manual Miranda)

■ Winburn Middle School bested six other schools to win the overall competition and the quick-recall segment of its local section in the 11th annual Kentucky Colonels Sixth-Grade Academic Showcase on Dec. 4.
The showcase also included written assessments in several areas. Here are the top individual results from Fayette County Public Schools. Language arts: Annie Griffith, Winburn, first; Josh Cagle, Edythe J. Hayes Middle School, third. Mathematics: Ronit Kar, Thirushan Wignakumar and Ben Xie, all of Winburn, tied for first.
Science: Thirushan Wignakumar, first; Sameer Ahmed, second; Vicki Wong, third; all of Winburn.
Social studies: Amit Lohe, Edith J. Hayes, first; Ben Xie, Winburn, second; Jodi Kirkner, Winburn, third.
Arts and humanities: Jodi Kirkner, Winburn, first; Vicki Wong, Winburn, third.
Composition: Kathryn Hunt, Lexington Traditional Magnet School, first.
■ This fall, more than 1,200 students statewide competed for spots in the Kentucky Music Educators Association's High School All-State Choirs. Vocalists in grades 10-12 auditioned in quartets — all performing the same piece a cappella and having to sight-sing.
Only 15 percent of a school's choral enrollment is allowed to audition, so many schools held preliminary tryouts. The Lexington-area district of KMEA had the most students auditioning. Lafayette High had the highest number selected from a single school.
Once the top 560 students were chosen, they were assigned to one of three choruses — a women's choir, a men's choir and a mixed group. Internationally recognized conductors will lead them in 2½ days of rehearsal culminating in performances Feb. 11 at the Kentucky Center for the Arts in Louisville during the KMEA state conference.
Congratulations to these honorees from Fayette County high schools.

Automaker makes big push toward electrification
Aston Martin plans to offer hybrid technology on all of its models within the next decade, CEO Andy Palmer has revealed.
"We will be 100 percent hybrid by the middle of the 2020s," Palmer told the Financial Times. The automaker will offer battery vehicles as well as mild-hybrid cars that pair an electric battery to a traditional combustion engine.
Aston Martin's commitment may sound similar to the one Volvo made earlier this summer, but there is a key difference. Volvo says every single one of its vehicles will include electrification, but Aston Martin will simply offer an electrified option on every model throughout its range. So while Volvo will stop selling all vehicles that run purely on gas or diesel, Aston Martin will continue churning out non-hybrid vehicles, reports FT.
Palmer estimates that around a quarter of Aston Martin cars will be all-electric by the end of the next decade. In the meantime, Aston Martin is gearing up to produce its first all-electric car, the Rapid-e, in 2019. It's possible the upcoming DBX crossover will offer a hybrid version after it enters production in 2019, according to Palmer.
The CEO also said Aston Martin wants to develop the electric driving systems in-house.
"You need to keep core technology inside the company," said Palmer. "That's why we make our own V-12 engine. We believe that EVs are a core technology, and therefore we want to do them ourselves."
Aston Martin has its hands full. A year ago, we learned Aston Martin was busy at work launching seven new models within 7 years, starting with the new DB11. Another model is a mid-engine sports car that will rival the Ferrari 488 and McLaren 720S.

THE BASQUE COASTThe CŰte Basque is a colourful mix of history, people and cultures where old-fashioned elegance tangles with surfer culture, all with such joie de vivre, as JOY DODDS discovered.
On Franceís Basque Coast, north of Spain, the Pyrťnťes plunge into the Bay of Biscay, such ruggedness giving the area its exotic character Ė a mix of resort and sanctuary, sophistication and charm.
Whales were the first sea bathers at Biarritz, not the elegant femmes of the 19th century and todayís surfers. While Biarritzís star has waned a little in comparison with resorts on Franceís CŰte díAzur, it is the perfect base to explore the Basque Coast. Linger along its seaside promenade on the Grande Plage, past the site of the former imperial palace that is now a hotel, past the Art Deco casino. Further on is Place Ste-Eugenie and the fishermanís port where the famed Rocher de la Vierge (Rock of the Virgin) bears a Madonna to protect the local seafarers, near the sturdy iron bridge designed by Gustave Eiffel (of Paris fame). The omnipresent Pointe-St-Martin lighthouse watches over the town with its smart Belle Epoque villas beside jagged cliffs and out to sea.
Near Biarritz is St Jean de Luz, fishing port and former haunt of pirates, and now a quaint unspoiled resort, with a small historic centre and interesting C17th shipownersí homes overlooking Louis XIV Square. The Basque-style Saint-Jean-Baptiste Church with its Baroque high altar and wooden galleries and the House of the Infanta are its most famous sites. Quite apart from its history, the town oozes charm, best experienced as you sit by the River Nivelle enjoying local specialties such as Ttoro (fish soup).
The port of Bayonne, to the north, is the traditional Basque and Gascon capital, famous for its summer festivals, hams and hot chocolate. (The cocoa bean, introduced by Columbus from South America, was brought to the area by Jews fleeing the Spanish Inquisition). The river town with its bridges and quays features fortifications and castles like Citadel Vauban, a Gothic cathedral and red half-timbered houses. The Basque Museum retraces their pre-Celtic history, culture and language (Euskara), while the Musťe Bonnat is one of Franceís best art museums with works by Michelangelo, Rubens, Van Dyke, El Greco and others. Bayonne is the oldest bullfighting town in France and the bayonet was invented by its C16th blacksmiths.
The last French town before the Spanish border is Hendaye, perfect for sailing and other water pursuits and minutesí away from Spainís San Sebastian.
The Basque rural areas are sprinkled with red and white houses nestled in green hills. An hourís drive inland, Saint-Jean-Pied-de Port and Ainhoa at the foot of the Pyrenees, with their citadels and walls, still welcome hikers on the Santiago de Compostela route since the Middle Ages. Nearby is spa town Cambo-Les-Bains, Espelette (famous for its chillis) and Sare, where you can take the rack and pignon railway to the peak of La Rhune, a mountain that offers spectacular views of both sides of the Pyrťnťes Ė but beware the wild cows!
Biarritzí pleasures have been enjoyed by the rich and famous since 1854 when Empress Eugenie convinced Napoleon III of Second Empire fame, to join her at this unknown site with its mild climate. They had a grand villa built on the prime location along the beach, transforming the simple fishing village with its whaling industry into a fashionable hot-spot. Such was its popularity with the in-crowd that a small Russian Orthodox Church was built for gambling Russian aristocrats.
Today the stunning 5-star Hotel du Palais stands in the shadow of the old Villa Eugenie, with famous guests including Queen Victoria, Sarah Bernhardt, Coco Chanel, Frank Sinatra and Princess Diana, to name a few.
Today, the area attracts the worldís finest surfers who swarm to Biarritz and Hossegor to enjoy the many beaches, especially during Biarritzís Surf Festival in July. Pelota, the red-and-white Pays-Basque rugby and golf are other drawcards, as are thalassotherapy (seawater cures) and swimming.
And what of the Basque tradition and culture? Passions and religious fervour run deep, whether expressed in music with flutes and tambourines, a capella singing or Mutxiko dance, a festive gathering or a Pelota tournament. Euskara, one of the worldís oldest languages, is taught in bilingual schools (Ikastolas). To witness ancient trials of strength such as tug-of-war and woodcutting, all tradition-based, is fascinating. Cider is to the Basque Country what champagne is to Champagne, and barrels are tapped and txotx rituals enjoyed, tasting the new seasonís vintage.
Whether it be for its rich traditions, its coastal beauty, its imperial history or its luxurious chic, the Basque Coast is a
veritable must-see.
At les halles (the produce markets), aisles of freshly-caught seafood as well as cheese and hams create a mouth-watering spectacle. The local specialties include local Bayonne ham, grilled sardines, chiperones (tiny squid) and scrambled eggs covered with brilliant red pimento (piperade), all happily washed down with local Basque Iroulťguy wine grown on the sunny terraces facing south, or Juracon white wine and red Madiran.
Also be tempted by Basque tapas (called pintxas), Basque chicken, cod-stuffed-peppers with spicy espelette pepper sauce, and Brebis cheese with red cherry jam. The jam comes from Itxassou, home of the black cherry, and is best enjoyed with local Basque eweís cheese, Ossau Iraty.

LAPD Devonshire Catalytic Converter Task Force Bust Dishonest Metal Recyclers
Posted by Councilmember Englander on September 18, 2015 at 12:00 PM
Yesterday, I was proud to join the Los Angeles Police Department to announce the arrest of five suspects and the confiscation of thousands of dollars in stolen property. This was the result of a 6 month investigation by the LAPD/Operations Valley Bureau's (OVB) Catalytic Converter Task Force (CCTF).
The CCTF was formed to combat catalytic converter thefts occurring throughout San Fernando Valley. Catalytic converters are targeted by thieves because they contain precious metals such as platinum, rhodium, and/or palladium.
Detectives learned that victims would start their vehicles and then notice loud sounds originating from underneath their vehicles. After inspecting the vehicles, the victims found that their catalytic converter had been cut from the exhaust system. Victims found that the average cost to replace and repair the exhaust system was approximately $1,700.00.
During the investigation, nearly a dozen catalytic converter thieves were arrested and charged with felony grand theft. The CCTF has worked closely with the Los Angeles County District Attorney Office, Los Angeles City Attorney-Environmental Crimes Section, Internal Revenue Services (IRS), State Franchise Tax Board (SFTB), and National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB).
The stolen property included:
9 pallets of stolen Catalytic converters, estimated to contain 500-1000 catalytic converters
3 rifles-(AK style assault weapons)
1 shotgun
3 handguns
2 vehicles
Not only do the victims of these types of crime incur this expense, but for many, their personal vehicle is their only mode of transportation to get to work. This crime effects the livelihood of the victims. I am proud of our LAPD Devonshire Division and the Catalytic Converter Task Force for putting these criminals behind bars.

[Delayed Command]
While wearing a quiver, a bolt case or a pouch for slingstones, you can RECOVER the missiles lying around -- those on the ground, the ones stuck in corpses and the ones in your inventory. You will grab all the missiles you shot or bought, and put them back in your quiver.
You can also "recover all": this will make you get all visible missiles, no matter if they are yours or not.

It's not easy to say goodbye. This summer we are parting with an old friend: our dear little mini-building on Nagle Avenue.
For the last two years, we've been living in two different locations. Our 5th and 6th grades were in our first little space that we called "Nagle" and our 7th and 8th grades in our building we called "Cooper," because Nagle only fit two grades. On August 1, we have the tremendous opportunity to bring together our 5th through 8th grades into the former St. Jude's Catholic School located on West 204th Street to create Inwood Middle School. (Did you know Dyckman Park, not far from our new location, is actually called Monsignor Kett Park, named for the former leader of the St. Jude's parish?) Our soon-to-be 9th graders will remain at the Cooper building to launch the first year of our high school.
As we move to Inwood Middle School, we are excited about the opportunities. It's a place where our entire middle school (5th – 8th grades) can be in one building, small groups can meet in actual classrooms, and students have access to a cafeteria and a gym. However, we're sad to leave the literal and figurative closeness of the community that was established at Nagle.
If you've been to this building, you know it's a bright little blue and green building, tucked away behind PS 152, with its entrance facing Ellwood Street. We even gave ourselves our own address when we moved in, calling it the "Ellwood Street Annex" for the purpose of mail delivery. While it was never official, UPS somehow found us. (FedEx and the post office rarely did!)
Our existence at Nagle has been one that has required us to be inventive and creative. The physical space was so tight that we had to like each other or we wouldn't make it. The teachers lovingly called working there "the struggle." Why?
- To water our garden we had to hook up a hose to a classroom sink and run it through the window.
- The garden, during warmer months, was our only space to have meetings. During colder months, we met in the hallway or a closet.
- The dean's/principal's office was a closet, without a door.
- Whenever we needed a closed-door room to have meetings, we would meet in the kitchen, which meant the teachers couldn't get their lunches.
- Small groups gathered in the hallway, on the floor or on stools.
- The main office was in the hallway.
- PE teachers held PE in classrooms when it rained, usually running students through "stations."
- Lunch was eaten in the classrooms
Yet through all of this, we grew to love Nagle because it was the place where students were progressing, where teachers were building relationships with each other and their students, and where character was being built. Space is a luxury in NYC; this is our blessing and our curse. When you ride the train, you know that being close to people is something that you have to do. In the same way, working and learning at Nagle meant that you had to figure out a way to get along. You had to be nice. You had to make learning happen, despite the circumstances. We all became educational MacGyvers, armed with a book and a stool.
As we bid farewell to our little space, we are thankful for the time it gave us to bond and create a strong foundation for our move to a larger space.
Goodbye, Nagle. We will miss your one hallway and your cozy quarters. However, you've given us something invaluable to take with us: a close-knit family and strength of character.
Hello, Inwood Middle School. We know we will have to work harder and be more intentional to create the Nagle
atmosphere, but we welcome the opportunity to grow and change with our new surroundings. See you soon!

Given the information you gave, I am going to direct you several places. The 175th Infantry Regiment was part of the 29th Infantry Division which did indeed land on Omaha Beach on D-Day. They were the division that took so many calsulties particulary from one town in Pennsylvania.The 175th has an association that can be reached at:
Col. John Vaccarino, USA Ret.
29th Div St,Fifth Regiment Armory
Baltimore, MD 21201
As to the 11th Airborn, it would not have been unusual for a man to be crossed trained. The 11th has web site on line for their association. I would suggest you contact both the 175th and the 11th.
Good luck to you
