Two of our favorite things are hiking and waterfalls. Do you know what is really amazing? When you can actually put the two of them together. One of our favorite places to see waterfalls almost any time of year is the Columbia Gorge on the Oregon side of the river. The Columbia Gorge waterfall area is incredible and it's home to such a variety of waterfalls. If you're in Portland you might as well head east and visit all of the many waterfalls and see what you can see. If you're in Hood River, same thing: go experience the amazing waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge!
The geology of the Columbia Gorge is really fascinating. On the north side of the river there are buttes, plateaus and the High Prairie. On the south side of the river starting in the east it's all buttes just like on the north side and then it rapidly turns into lush forests and hills, then turning into cliffs and moving on all the way to the rolling hills around the Portland area.
There are two ways that you can approach doing the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge. You can start in Portland or you can start in Hood River, but it depends on what you want your final destination to be. We're going to tackle these starting at the western end.
What you'll find...
- Sights and Waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge
- First stop: Vista House
- Latourell Falls: prettiest of the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge
- Bridal Veil Falls: the hike we've NEVER done
- Wahkeena Falls: the kids' favorite falls
- Multnomah Falls: the most popular tourist attraction in Oregon
- Oneonta Gorge and Falls: for adventurous adults
- Horsetail Falls: easiest stop to enjoy ever
- Where to stay for visiting the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge
Sights and Waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge
Just so you begin on the right foot, starting earlier in the day for this adventure is best, as there going to be a lot of people doing this same route any day of the week. Oregon's historic Route 30 is a narrow two lane road and it easy to be distracted by the beautiful scenery, the mossy cliffs and the plummeting falls everywhere. The most important thing to remember is that no matter how breathtaking every sight is around every corner, the road is exceptionally dangerous and requires full attention driving.
Tip: this whole area is great to incorporate into a West Coast road trip. Just sayin'…
First stop: Vista House
The first sight on historic Oregon Highway 30 is Vista House. Vista House is the coolest little Art Deco building at the top of a cliff overlooking the Columbia River to the west, north, and east. It is the best place on the Columbia River to see a sunset. It's absolutely beautiful. If you're there during the right hours you can go into Vista house. The stained glass and stone work are just amazing. It's the only man-made sight along the tour of the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge.
Tip: any time but the summer is WINDY and cold at Vista House. It's a great place to propose or to wow your kids with shocking gusts of wind.
Latourell Falls: prettiest of the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge
The next stop as you head east on Oregon Highway 30 is Latourell Falls. This is a really interesting stop for a couple reasons. First off you can see the falls from the road or the parking area but you might as well do a tiny hike. Hike #1 heads up the hill to a really great viewpoint and the falls is completely visible so you can call it good if you like. Hike #2 goes from the parking area to the base of the falls. This is the best hike. The trail is kind of scary because the land has shifted and bits of the trail have washed down the hill. All in all though it's plenty safe. We've done it with a stroller and without several times.
Note: we use the term "hike" very liberally. Yes there are real hikes available, but getting to the general view areas aren't actual hikes.
The thing that makes Latourell Falls so cool is the lichen that grows all across the rock formation the falls is jutting off of. The lichen is a brilliant chartreuse. It is difficult to photograph the falls with a good light balance because the lichen is so brilliantly bright that it throws off your camera settings, FYI. This waterfall is particularly fun for kids because you get to see it at the base where, due to the height of the Falls, the spray is the perfect consistency to get you soaked if you leave the trail. On top of the lichen and the mist, the moss that surrounds the entire area is just beautiful. It's the most unusual sight among the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge
Tip: allowing 20 minutes for this stop is fine. It's not even a quarter mile back to the base of the falls and you can only sit and ponder them for so long.
Tip 2: there are other hikes you can do out of this spot, so if you do have extra time, plan on a short jaunt up the hill or along the canyon floor.
Bridal Veil Falls: the hike we've NEVER done
The next set of falls you come to is Bridal Veil Falls. We actually never stop here. We probably should but we always skip it. It's a neat waterfall because it's broken into two segments which makes it really different than the other waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge. When we're down there next time, which will be in a month, I am sure that we will make a stop here. If so, we're share what tips we learn.
Tip: ask a local for a hiking recommendation for Bridal Veil Falls, as it is a two part waterfall with a few different hiking options.
Wahkeena Falls: the kids' favorite falls
Wahkeena Falls is a really cool waterfall. It is a cascade vs an outright plunge. The parking area / rest area is really unusual. This might sound like a weird thing to call out but we really love the bathrooms here. The bathrooms actually have murals and really cool stone work. Besides the bathrooms the cool thing about the public area is all of the picnic tables, and then there's the pathway that leads to the falls. If you're touring the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge at lunch time, this stop is your picnic zone.
Wahkeena Falls is really fun for kids because they can walk alongside the rushing water and it's never quite too high. I think that if this was in a tropical Location there would probably be orchids and toucans all the way along the cascade as it comes down the hill. This is one of the most relaxing spots of all that you'll stop at, as it's the least populated of all the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge.
Tip: take advantage of the restrooms here as there aren't many along Oregon's Historic Highway 30. Multnomah Falls has facilities but it is the most visited tourist attraction in the State of Oregon and at any given moment there will be hundreds of people in a small space… all needing to pee.
Multnomah Falls: the most popular tourist attraction in Oregon
Multnomah Falls is the busiest tourist attraction in all of the state of Oregon. Just know this before you even try to park. Parking can be tricky whether coming from highway 30 and parking in the smaller lot or coming off of Interstate 84 and parking in the easy access lot. Either way parking can be tricky.
The thing that makes Multnomah Falls neat is the setting. Everything is covered in moss: the lodge (which you cannot stay at and is actually a restaurant), the gift shop, the restroom, the coffee shop, the paths, the footbridges… The creek that feeds Multnomah Falls runs all the way down to the Columbia River and you get to walk along a good portion of it before you get to the falls.
It's all gorgeous with moss and cut stones. Really, it is worthy of being the busiest tourist attraction and is the gem of the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge. Can you tell we love it here?
Multnomah Falls is split into two waterfalls: the lower one which is pretty short but still beautiful, and then the upper falls, which you can walk up the long path to get to the most picturesque little bridge. Just like with other waterfalls in the Columbia Gorge, Multnomah Falls has lots of mist. Be prepared to get soaked at either the lower or the upper falls view points. In the summertime it's not going to be so bad because the water level is much lower and not as much water spilling over and splashing everywhere, but in the spring and winter, and heck even in the fall, you'll see higher water levels and a great deal of mist, and all of this mist is what makes all of this so beautiful.
Tip: light for photographing the falls is best during the early afternoon in the summer, but that's also when the water is at its lowest and least impressive. In the autumn through spring, hit the falls in the late morning or mid-afternoon to get enough light, but not crazy bad shadows.
Tip 2: just deal with the mist. It's so very worth it to enjoy some moments in front of the falls.
Tip 3: if you don't do the short walk up to the arched bridge and get close to the upper falls you'll wish you did. Yes, you'll get wet. Yes, you'll make funny faces and have kids with their eyes closed in every picture, but it's wonderful just the same.
Oneonta Gorge and Falls: for adventurous adults
So this is a stop that's both amazing and, um, in the winter might be a bummer. Here's what you experience from the road: you see some sort of foot passage / tunnel, you see some sort of foot bridge that's covered in moss, you see a tight canyon that is also covered in moss and ferns, you know there's something beyond all of this… but what? Yes, this is a very mysterious stop and it's just begging you to explore and you should if you have the time and a second pair of shoes to change into afterwards, because your feet will get wet any time of year.
Here's the thing about visiting in the winter: there has been rain and snow for a few months, so the creek has superceded its banks… and you can't walk up into the Gorge. In the summer, it's very different, as you can continue up through the Gorge to Oneoneta Falls. Either way it's a beautiful site and worth going down to creek level to explore. This stop is unusual among the many options along the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge.
Tip: there is limited parking directly next to the Gorge entrance, but to the east of the creek there is a tunnel to walk through and additional parking. Take advantage of that, and if you have kids with you, this will be an added thrill due to the tunnel. You can also yell really loudly in the tunnel… and everybody loves to do that.
Horsetail Falls: easiest stop to enjoy ever
Horsetail Falls is great because it's the last one before you're done with the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge tour. Horsetail Falls is the perfect stop (or not) to see from the road. It's big. It's beautiful. It's splashy! We love this stop for the sheer thrill of it. Again, winter is the best time to see it because the greater the water level the better the display, but kids love it any time. We found that the kids had the most priceless reaction, not to the sight of Horsetail Falls, but to the sound. The water flows from the base of the falls directly under the bridge, which is also the splash zone and between that raging creek and the splashing falls, the sound is better than the best sound machine you could ever hope to buy. It just so fun to experience on a day of family travel.
Tip: there is parking for the falls, but there's not a ton of it. There is a parking area that you must enter from the east end or there's a tiny bit of street parking accessible from either direction.
Where to stay for visiting the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge
You've always got choices for how to approach a road trip, big or small; how to do a weekend getaway or make a whole vacation of it; finding a hotel or booking a quaint BNB… or dare I say it, an Air BNB or VRBO…
The Skamania Lodge in Stevenson, WA
We've stayed in a few places when we've visited the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge, ranging from downtown Portland, Oregon to Lyle, Washington, and even at the Skamania Lodge in Stevenson on the Washington side. Our most recent trip had us traveling out from the Skamania Lodge. It's on the north side of the Columbia River and is in the most beautiful setting. The lodge has a fantastic lobby with a grand stone fireplace and ample seating. We enjoyed the outdoor rockery-style hot tub each evening we were there too.
The rooms are nice with very lodgy touches, including hints of the Native American culture you'll find all around the area. At the hotel you'll also find the Waterleaf Spa, which we really enjoyed. This was actually the highlight of the Skamania lodge for us. We enjoyed the private sauna and whirlpool prior to some really incredible 80 minute massages… but that's a story for a different time.
Hood River Hampton by Hilton in Hood River, OR
Another great option is to make Hood River your base and then you have access to the waterfall area, Mt. Hood, the Dalles and more. We enjoyed a long weekend at the Hampton by Hilton in Hood River. It was ideal for being centrally located and perfect for the kids since there was a great pool, breakfast, and an overall fun environment. The room sizes were also quite generous which always is a plus when you're traveling with kids.
Hampton by Hilton in Hood River is located just off the Columbia River across the foot bridge from the Historical Museum. If you want to have river access, restaurants and breweries within walking distance, this is the spot for you. Oh yeah, and if you're a wind surfer or kite boarder, why would you look anywhere else? The Hampton is nearly brand new and right off the Event Site. Perfect!
Isn't it great to know that there's such a wonderful natural activity/tour you can do just right outside of another destination? Heck yes! Portland is only 45 minutes (at most) to the west of the waterfall area and Hood River is less than a half hour to the east. If you're heading to either location, please do yourself a favor and spend half a day or more exploring the amazing natural collection that is the waterfalls of the Columbia Gorge.
Want to pin this for your next big Travel Oregon adventure? Go for it!!

Ok, just one entry in the FAQ so far..
1. How much is it gonna cost?
Somewhere around about 90 GBP, 120 USD. However I havnt looked into things like sales tax and all the other issues and costs, so it may change a bit. And it may depend where you're buying it from since I dont know squat about how local taxes affect things.

FlightBeam Drops The Mic... Again.../
FSX/P3D. Auckland will finally come and with all the FlightBeam splendor we hail as excellence. I do honestly hope with FlightBeam heading into New Zealand, this will open the flood gates for other developers to start realizing everything this beautiful country has to offer simheads. Thanks to Jordan King for the tipoff! FlightBeam has quite a few projects going at the moment. None of which I can discuss aside from MSP, but brace yourselves nonetheless. In the meantime, Auckland is very much welcome news. FlyTampa wanted it after Sydney but yielded to Orbx whom is already delivering an aircraft carrier load of addons so... FB it be. Hear that folks? That is the sound of no complaints. And there is Mir and team exiting stage right.

Souvenirs of My Travels
My art is a reflection of my travels. I want you to feel and experience, if only for a moment, that you are with me in my travels through my art. I do this every time I glance at my paintings…a sense that I am there. Through a glass of wine, a bouquet of sunflowers, eating Greek olives and wearing a striped fisherman's shirt helps! And as soon as the shirt wears out, I get a new one! Come celebrate my art as travel!
I am ever a student of art, collecting impressions. Pastels with watercolor under paintings is my preferred artist medium,(no worry of turpentine or color mixing…there is an immediacy that is conveyed with pastels…no waiting to dry to add the next layer of interest).
As long as I can remember, I was drawn to the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists: Monet and Van Gogh specifically. I am a keen reader of their biographies and exploring the places where these artists lived and died. In college, I had two professors Arthur Sussman and Ou Mie Shu who taught me basics of art, philosophy of life and their view of the world. Albert Handell introduced me to watercolor under painting and using Wallis paper as a support for my paintings. Anita West, for her sense of organization. Lorenzo Chavez shared further in my studies on how to sense the movement of atmosphere and sky. And finally, Carolyn Lindsey for walking all those "art miles" with me!
I begin each piece when I am actually there. In my mind's eye I see the potential of a future painting. I might do a watercolor sketch or field study. I take a multitude of photographs from all angles, close-ups and distance. I call this "photo sketching".
In most paintings there is a touch of mankind: it might be a fence, boat or doorway. From nature, I glimpse reflections, shadow and sunlight. Often I paint trees, flowers, plants and farm animals. I like to paint architecture in various evolution of age, depicting what time has done to the structures. I am a sort of "Architectural Portrait Painter".
My art should pique your curiosity of the sights, smells and sounds of the countryside, village or garden, azure sky, undulating fields of lavender, prickly cacti, afternoon heat or the shade of an umbrella. I paint the whiteness of Greek stucco or the gentleness of swaying crimson poppies.
I invite you to come with me and enjoy my art journeys.

I enjoy reading Kaiser Fung's blogs (junkcharts and numbersruleyourworld). One entry in particular caught my attention because it was relevant to some work I had been doing recently.
We were working on a model to improve project estimation for an organization. In this situation, the given group was exerting a lot of effort to deliver an estimate. There are a lot of players involved in a project and each team wants a chance to weigh in on their part. In fact, Steve McConnell in his book Software Estimation: Demystifying the Black Art, he notes that the best person to give an estimate is the person doing the work. But because of the huge backlog of items needing estimation the organization was drowning in estimates and not getting anything done. They wanted to know if a model could improve the process.
So we collected some data, constructing a very simple model based on attempting to estimate the total effort of the project based on extrapolating from a single team's input. We've had success with similar models elsewhere, so it seemed like a plausible route to go here.
How to evaluate a model then becomes the question. With a simple linear model like we were proposing, the first thing we'd look at is the R-squared. Ideally, if the input perfectly predicts the output, your R-sq will be 100%. But since models are not perfect, the R-sq is usually something less. In this case, the best model we had was 25%. The worst model we had resulted in a negative R-sq! You get a negative R-sq when the error in the model is bigger than the fit of the model. At this point using a model to help this organization out seemed hopeless. And that's when Kaiser's article popped to mind. We didn't need a model that necessarily was a perfect model; we simply needed a model that was better than what they were doing today.
Although evaluating the model against various measures of goodness of fit, the real test was whether the model outperformed the alternative. In this case the alternative was expert judgement. We already knew that the effort to produce an estimate using a model was substantially cheaper than having a whole bunch of teams weigh in. So, could a really terrible model be better than the experts? It turns out the answer is yes. The model outperformed expert judgement about 60% of the time despite the poor quality of the model by other measures. One could hardly call the model good, but then again, it wasn't like the experts were any good either.
We have this illusion that when we provide an estimate based on our "expertise" that it is somehow unbiased and of high quality. But referring back to McConnell's book again, we know this to not be the case. There's significant uncertainty in early stage estimates, so why should we presume that the expert can know something that hasn't been articulated by anyone? They don't know what they don't know. And that's where models can be helpful. Because the model doesn't have any preconceived notions about the work and isn't going to be optimistic for no reason, the model is likely to make as good an estimate as any expert would.
For some reason it reminds me of the saying about being chased by a bear. You don't need to outrun the bear, just the other person the bear is chasing. And so it goes with models. The model doesn't have to be perfect to be useful, it simply must be better than the alternative.

The college football season can run up to 15 games, but there's one staff that's with the players all year long: strength and conditioning.
"They are with us about 90 percent of the time throughout the year," head strength and conditioning coach SaJason Finley said. "Football coaches have them for four months, but the guys are with us for the other eight. It's a lot of development all-around."
There are multiple examples of how the strength and conditioning world has evolved. For one, it is also equally mental as it is physical when the student-athletes are in the weight room or on the grass. Another aspect is simply how people train physically.
"Everyone's seeing that in order to play the game, you have to be able to move," Finley said. "Sport is movement and not just about being the strongest. You won't be efficient on the football field or basketball court if you're strong and can't move."
Finley faces a unique challenge that is also shared amongst every one of his counterparts around the country. As the lead person, he has to oversee every other sport's program as well, and that includes a daily and highly-calculated report from the training staff that details every player's injury, what their limitations are and also how hard they can or cannot be pushed in each of those aspects. As for football, one can see where Southern Miss gets its reputation for toughness.
"The big challenge of football is definitely making sure guys are conditioned and ready to go before camp," Finley said. "The summers in Mississippi are a little hot and different."
Finley is also quick to give credit where credit is due, especially going back to his earlier days at Auburn under football strength and conditioning coach Ryan Russell, who "took a green coach under his wings and caught me up to speed."
"I had the passion and the drive, and it got me so ahead with the experience."
Mornings, nights, weekends and weeknights. The grind never stops for the Southern Miss strength and conditioning staff.
Season tickets, flex plans, and group tickets for the 2017 Golden Eagle home season are still available and can be purchased by going online at SouthernMissTickets.com, by calling 1-800-844-TICK (8425) or by visiting the Pat Ferlise Ticket Office, weekdays, from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. Discounts are available for Southern Miss faculty and staff, senior citizens, military personnel, and recent Southern Miss graduates. The Golden Eagles open the 2017 season at home on Saturday, Sept. 2, at 3 p.m. against SEC opponent Kentucky.

Bonfire night activity – Toffee Apples
Equipment – kitchen scales, measuring jug, large bowl, large saucepan, wooden spoon, teaspoon, tablespoon, wooden skewers, sugar thermometer or digital cooking thermometer, non-stick baking paper, small bowl of cold water.
Ingredients – boiling water, 8 apples of your favourite eating variety, 400g sugar, 100ml water, 4tbsp golden syrup, 1tsp cider vinegar (or any vinegar type apart from balsamic which tastes a bit too strong).
Method – put the apples in the bowl and cover with boiling water. This will make sure the skins are clean and smooth so the toffee will stick. You can give the apples a rub once the water has cooled enough. Push the skewers into the apples at the stalk end.
Put the sugar and 100ml water into a large saucepan, stir and heat gently until the sugar dissolves. Add the vinegar and golden syrup and heat more strongly. There is no need to stir now. Use your sugar thermometer carefully. You need to heat the mixture until it gets to between 146⁰C – this might be labelled 'hard crack' on a sugar thermometer.
Be very, very careful with your toffee now because it will burn you if you get a drop on your skin. To double check that it is ready, put a drop from your wooden spoon into the bowl of cold water. If it is ready, the drop of toffee will go hard and brittle.
Turn off the heat but leave the pan on the stove so it does not cool too quickly. Dip each apple into the toffee to cover it completely. Put the apple on the baking paper to cool. There may be a little drooping of the toffee while it cools but don't worry – the toffee 'skirts' around the bottom will be very tasty! Left-over toffee in the pan can be poured straight onto the baking paper and broken into toffee sweets when cold.
When making toffee, the sugar and the golden syrup make a very concentrated sugar solution. As this is boiled, the water evaporates but the sugar remains in the saucepan. The solution becomes more and more concentrated. The point at which heating is stopped determines the texture of the resulting toffee. If it is below about 146⁰C the toffee will be chewy because there is slightly more water in it. Above 146⁰C it is much more crunchy because more water has been boiled off. If the temperature is too high then the sugar will burn. These temperatures are approximate because the exact mix of sucrose (sugar) and invert sugar (in golden syrup), other ingredients and even atmospheric pressure will affect the relationship between the temperature and the sugar concentration. The cold water test will tell you if your toffee will be chewy or crunchy at that time.
Rapid cooling on the baking paper, without stirring, makes sugar crystals form throughout the toffee quickly. These crystals will be tiny and give the toffee a smooth texture. If the toffee is stirred as it cools, crystals start to form where the stirring happens and they have time to grow large. If the toffee cools very slowly, large crystals have time to form too. These large sugar crystals give the toffee a grainy texture.
Good luck with your toffee making, and make sure you clean your teeth thoroughly after eating!

The Not-Working Programme
No jobs. Just sanctions.
Yesterday the news we already knew. The Work Programme isn't working. It's a £5 billion pound failure. Not one of the 18 contractors reached the target set by the government of getting 5.5% of clients a job for at least six months. Only 3.5% of people referred to work programme found jobs lasting six months. But that's not even the whole story. Workfare industry lobbyists the CESI have calculated that the real figure of people getting any kind of employment on the scheme in its first 12 months, is in fact just 2.1%. The government's target for minimum performance by providers is 5.5%. Even these pro-workfare industry lobbyists have now stated that:
"This suggests that the Work Programme as a whole is underperforming against contractual expectations, even when accounting for changes in the economy."
The cost of this £5 billion failure can also be measured in human misery. You have a one in ten chance of being sanctioned on the Work Programme but less than a one in twenty chance of finding work. 15,000 people a month are currently being sanctioned, with the total number of people sanctioned and therefore plunged into dire poverty since the scheme began currently likely to stand at more than 150,000.
Whilst failing providers such as A4e happily sanction people's £71 or £56 per week JSA, their profits are entirely funded by the taxpayer through their £438 million contract, which they maintain despite being investigated for fraud. The data shows that providers such as A4E, Ingeus, REED, and G4S are more interested in stripping people of benefits than finding people work. There are no jobs, just sanctions.
It is nothing short of scandalous that the employment minister Mark Hoban, and Work Programme providers can blame a weak economy for the scheme's failure, yet people who are unemployed and sent to A4e, Reed, Ingeus are constantly told as part of their 'induction' that the reason they are unemployed is due to personal failure. It has never been clearer that the real reason people are unemployed is that there is a lack of jobs. This is made worse when providers supply employers with unpaid staff, on threat of joining the ranks of the 150,000 people who have faced sanctions.
The Work Programme, like the other 6 workfare schemes, was an economic failure from the start. Workfare was never designed to create jobs, it has never boosted employment anywhere in the world. Workfare was however designed to cut the benefits bill, and to deter people from claiming state support when times are hard. It is also being used to hide the true number of unemployed, as the Office of National Statistics has confirmed.
Workfare also replaces paid jobs. After all with stores like Argos, Superdrug and Shoe Zone to name just a few using workfare to reduce hours and keep costs down instead of providing paid employment, where were all the jobs needed for the Work Programme to succeed going to come from anyway?
Given the misery workfare causes, the role that some charities are playing is shameful. They are directly increasing poverty for the poorest by taking part in workfare and putting people at risk of sanctions. The Salvation Army – a key proponent of workfare – has an annual income of £207,011,000. Yet it is actively increasing poverty for people both in and out of employment by taking part in the government's workfare schemes.
So the question is why are so many charities who should be opposing poverty taking part in a scheme that is increasing it? Join us to ask them just that, and let them know we won't be shopping or donating until they pull out, in the upcoming week of action…

Had they concentrated
Had they concentrated in the last 12 months on getting people into suitable employment half as much as they do on sanctioning vulnerable peoples' benefits, they'd have got all work programme participants in to employment. xx

Prove They Are Alive!
NHC joins campaign to demand information about disappeared prisoners in Turkmenistan
New press release from the Prove the are alive campaign: EU must back human rights and the environment along with the Trans-Caspian gas pipeline.
The campaign is aimed at the authorities of Turkmenistan, who are known to imprison political activists in closed trials and not providing information about the whereabouts or conditions.
The Goal of the Campaign Prove They Are Alive! is to uncover the truth about the fate of hundreds of people who have disappeared in Turkmen prisons as the result of massive repression that took place in the 2000s. Uncovering the truth about gross human rights violations by Turkmenistan's authorities in the past and today will stop additional violations in the future. By raising the question of the fate of those people who have disappeared in Turkmenistan's prisons on the international level, we begin to pave the way to addressing the systemic human rights violations committed by one of the most opaque and repressive regimes in the world.
The most known group of such political activists have been incommunicado in prison for ten years since an alleged assassination attempt in 2002. – There is reason to believe that several of these individuals have become severely ill or even passed away under harsh conditions in prison, said Lene Wetteland, Central Asia advisor with the NHC. – The relatives are however still kept in the unknown after ten years, and this constitutes an immense pressure and collective punishment on the family members.
Objectives of the Prove They Are Alive! campaign:
1. Understand the fates of all those who have disappeared in Turkmen prisons, and obtain information from the Turkmen authorities about their location, their health and their legal status;
2. Obtain access to the imprisoned for their families, lawyers, doctors and representatives of international organizations;
3. Prevent further disappearances of people in Turkmenistan's prisons;
4. Help to improve the overall human rights situation in Turkmenistan, including conditions in Turkmenistan's prisons.
We hope to reach these objectives through cooperation with international organizations and through direct dialogue with the government of Turkmenistan. The resolution of this humanitarian crisis and the disclosure of information about the imprisoned will push the Turkmen authorities to take the first step away from Turkmenistan's totalitarian past and the legacy of mass repression.
A vast number of people languish in Turkmen prisons. Gulgeldy Annaniyazov is a democracy activist who received political asylum in Norway in 2002 and lived here with his family. He returned to Turkmenistan in 2008 after the death of former dictator Niyazov in the hope that change could now take place. Instead, he was immedeately arrested and sentenced to 11 years in prison, and his family has heard from him only twice – via undated small notes smuggled out from prison. The NHC has advocated his case on several occasions since the arrest, to no avail. In an unexpected incident the Turkmen delegation briefly referred to his case when questioned at the UN UPR hearing in April, but credible information about his health condition and whereabouts is still lacking. – The NHC joins in the campaign with a demand to the Turkmen authorities to prove that Gulgeldy Annaniyazov and other prisoners are alive, said Wetteland at the launch.
The campaign is an initiative from Turkmenistan Working Group of the Civic Solidarity Platform, consisting of 54 NGOs in the OSCE region.

Spore: General / Re: SPORE RELEASE ALERT« on: May 22, 2006, 03:25:56 pm »
Please take the following statement to heart, as its wisdom will serve you well throughout your life:
Retailers generally have no insider information about release dates; if anything, we are probably better informed than they are because we're following it so closely, and in any case, they will change it to whatever date they like so that preorders keep flowing in.
That said, a delay isn't really all that unlikely anyway. I don't think the game is as close to finished as we hope it is. But the only dates we should pay any attention to will come from EA or Maxis. Anything else is pure speculation or plain manipulation.
I repeat: It is seeeeriously unlikely any of us will know anything of the release date until about three months before it comes out. The following release dates have been announced:
September 2006, October 2006, December 2006, January 2007, February 2007, March 2007, April 2007, May 2007, and now June 2007.
No one knows when it is coming out.
Then I say it will be in November 2006... it's the only month they didn't talk about so far THIS MUST BE IT

In the early morning hours of Nov. 13, a single-car accident in Slidell claimed the life of a 34-year-old man. When a Coroner's Office investigator went to the man's house to notify the next of kin, he found a teenager and two younger children at the house. The dead man was a single father, and the investigator — trained in examining death scenes — was at a loss as to what to do.
The investigator ended up staying with the children until the grandparents arrived. "He did the best he could," St. Tammany Parish Coroner Charles Preston said of the investigator, "but that's just not what they are trained to do."
By definition, coroners work with those who have passed from this world. Investigators and technicians focus on classifying the cause and circumstances of a person's death, not on helping those still living.
Preston is trying to change that.
He has put $5,000 in the office's budget for 2015 to start a chaplaincy program, hoping to recruit a couple dozen volunteer chaplains who could go out with coroner's investigators to death scenes and help the family members navigate their next few steps.
The budgeted amount is paltry compared with the Coroner's Office's $3.8 million total budget, but Preston said it could have an outsized effect.
In his six months on the job since taking over from interim Coroner Pramod Menon in May, Preston has been on several scenes where a chaplain would have been helpful, he said, including that car accident in Slidell.
"People from the Sheriff's Office and the Coroner's Office come and they are all really nice, but when they take down the crime tape, we go," he said, leaving family members to deal with both the grief and the bureaucratic hurdles of an often sudden loss.
Preston cited the Slidell car wreck as one example that brought the need for a chaplain into sharp relief. But, he added, scenes where a chaplain couldn't provide a valuable service are the exception, not the rule.
"I hope chaplains will help," he said.
The program's development is ecumenical: Preston, a Catholic, is working with the Rev. Donald Bryan, of First Pentecostal Church of Slidell.
Bryan is working on developing the policies and procedures for the program, which will be based on a chaplaincy program at the Nashville (Tennessee) Police Department, where Bryan has a friend who provided him with a copy of that program's rules and regulations.
The program would be open to people of all faiths, Bryan said. He hopes to recruit between 15 and 30 chaplains who would be on call for as much as two days at a time, Bryan said.
The chaplains would operate much like counselors in the St. Tammany Outreach for the Prevention of Suicide, or STOPS, program. A chaplain could assist the Coroner's Office by performing a death notification or counseling the family. If the family declines the offer of help, the chaplain would give them a brochure outlining available services and leave, Preston said.
Preston said he wasn't aware of any similar programs being operated by other coroners, but he said he is modeling it on chaplains who work with police and fire departments.
East Baton Rouge Parish Coroner Beau Clark doesn't have a chaplaincy program, but he does have volunteer counselors who help people who have suffered a traumatic loss. His program, called Traumatic Loss Outreach, revived and expanded a program that had been in place under one of his predecessors.
Clark's program, however, has no religious component. The counselors are trained volunteers, not members of the clergy.
Asked why he decided to include a religious component, Preston said he wants to use people who already have some experience in grief counseling. And approaching faith-based organizations was a no-brainer because "they were already in place," he said.
Preston hopes the training — which he expects to cost about $100 per chaplain — can begin early next year.

This semester, I'm taking quite an interesting mix of classes from business law to accounting and career management. My career management class meets only once a week and mainly reviews practical topics including how to dress professionally or craft the perfect elevator pitch. Recently, we discussed values and how to apply our personal values in our careers to not only be successful but to find the right job. We then did an exercise with about thirty cards that listed various values/perks in a workplace and asked to personally rank them on a scale from always valued, to sometimes valued, seldom valued, and never valued.
The exercise seemed easy enough, but it was surprising how difficult it was to decide how much I truly valued things like honesty, corporate social responsibility, aesthetics, physical activity, high wages, or friendly office culture when they were pitted against each other (no workplace is perfect so we could only put about seven values in each category on our scale).
Everyone then had to share how we personally ranked our values.
One look at this little blog or my Instagram and anyone can tell I live for creativity and value aesthetics. I'm definitely believe in left/right brain dominance, but it was still shocking to realize how many people put creativity and aesthetics at the bottom of their scale. Junior year is approaching soon and the pressure to choose a major and future career path is weighing heavily on many of my friends and peers. While I'm not entirely sure what my exact dream job looks like, I'm constantly learning and reassessing what values are important to me based on my experiences in class, internships, jobs, and extracurriculars. From my experiences, I keep discovering what mix of professional and personal values make me feel happy, fulfilled, and balanced.
In the end, all we have are these little values to help guide our choices, happiness, and future.
"Achievement of your happiness is the only moral purpose of your life, and that happiness, is the proof of your moral integrity, since it is the proof and the result of your loyalty to the achievement of your values."
So, what do you value?
