How to Get Here
Rancho Mastatal (not Villas Mastatal!) is about 2 ½ hours by car from Costa Rica's capital, San José, and approximately 1 hour by car from the Central Pacific Coast. You can easily come from or continue on to San José, Jacó, Quepos, Dominical or other destinations along the Pacific Coast. Please confirm your arrival with us before heading out to the Ranch.
The approximate GPS coordinates of Rancho Mastatal are latitude +9.67331, longitude -84.37373.

Direct Shuttle from the Airport or Central Valley to Mastatal
With enough advance notice, you can arrange a private shuttle to the Ranch from the airport, San José, or just about anywhere else in and around the Central Valley of Costa Rica with our friend Fernando Arias. The cost for a private shuttle from the Juan Santamaría International Airport is approximately $150, though prices can and do change. Night trips are $5 more expensive. If your flight arrives at night or late, Fernando and his wonderful family will put you up in their house in Puriscal for the night and feed you breakfast before bringing you out to the Ranch the following day. If you exercise this option, we suggest leaving them a little tip for their generosity. Fernando and his family are some of the kindest people we have ever met in Costa Rica.

Driving from San José
Take the highway out of the capital going towards Ciudad Colón and Puriscal (sometimes referred to as Santiago). We recommend you drive during the day. To get to the highway from downtown San José, take Paseo Colón west, until you hit Sabana Park, then take a left, and follow the signs to Escazú/Ciudad Colón. If you are coming from Alajuela or the airport, you will have to head towards San José before picking up the highway to Ciudad Colón. A local map will be very helpful. On the way to Ciudad Colón, you will pass the town of Santa Ana. The highway can get a little confusing just before getting to Ciudad Colón. Make sure that you follow the correct signs. DO NOT HEAD TOWARDS CALDERA. In Ciudad Colón follow the one-way streets and signs towards Puriscal. You will then climb up and out of the Central Valley, and pass through the Quítirrisi Indian Reserve. From Ciudad Colón, it's about 40 minutes to Puriscal. Once in Puriscal, follow signs to Parrita/Quepos. Once outside of Puriscal, continue on the main road through the towns of Santa Marta, La Palma, Salitrales, and other small communities. The paved road ends about 15 kilometers outside of Puriscal. About 1 hour and 15 minutes after leaving Puriscal and soon after passing by the entrance to the administrative offices of La Cangreja National Park, you will arrive to an intersection. A small run-down bus stop and a few signs, one announcing "Mastatal", mark the junction. Make this left hand turn, and continue for 6 kilometers until you arrive to the town of Mastatal. There is one intersection along this road. Stay left and continue down the road. As you enter Mastatal, we are the house on the left of the main intersection with the red roof. There is a black gate that marks the entrance to the Ranch. We do not have a sign. Make sure not to confuse us with Villas Mastatal, another project in our community with a similar name.
Bus from San Jose
You will take two buses — one from San José to Puriscal and the other from Puriscal to Mastatal. If you are coming direct from the airport, you will have to take either a bus or cab to get to San José before continuing on to Puriscal. Once in San José, take one of the frequent buses (every 30-60 minutes) from the Comtrasuli (phones in San José, +506 2258-3873 or +506 2256-0105, phone in Puriscal +506 2416-8036) bus terminal located on Avenida 1 between Calle 16 and Calle 18 in downtown San José. The buses are mostly modern. Take an express bus if possible. The trip from San José to Puriscal takes about 1 hour. Get off at the last stop in Puriscal, the Comtrasuli bus terminal. The bus to Mastatal leaves from in front of a "carnicería" and near the Doña Toña restaurant across from the Super Mora supermarket parking lot, one and a half blocks from the Comtrasuli bus terminal towards the center of town, at 3 p.m. except on Sundays when the bus does not run (either to or from Mastatal). There are 2 Super Mora grocery stores in town. Please make sure that you are near the larger one. You will want to arrive at least 20 minutes before the bus departs to assure a seat. There is sometimes a sign on the bus that reads "Zapatón" though you should ask the driver where he is going to be sure. The trip to Mastatal takes about 2 hours. Make sure that the driver knows that you are going to Mastatal, or he might charge you the maximum price, as the bus continues on to other stops after passing through Mastatal. The bus will drop you off almost directly in front of our house (red roof and black gate). Make sure not to confuse us with Villas Mastatal, another project in our community with a similar name.
Driving from the Central Pacific Coast
There are two possible routes from Parrita (located ~30 kms west of Quepos, and 40 kms east of Jacó along the Central Pacific Coast) to Mastatal. The first route, shorter but steeper, takes you through the towns of La Vasconia, La Fila de Aguacate and San Miguel. During the rainy season a 4x4 vehicle is sometimes recommended. About 2 kms west of Parrita, turn north on a road that starts in the midst of the African Oil Palms near where the palm transport trucks congregate. Look for a green sign that points towards "Playon".This road comes up quickly, so keep a close eye for it. Follow the road, through the palms, and then through the towns of Playón Sur, Playón San Isidro and La Vasconia. After passing through La Vasconia, you will come to a 'fork' in the road in front of the La Vasconia church (you have to look closely to recognize that it's a church). Stay left at the fork (there may be a small sign pointing towards San Miguel), and continue up the hill, sometimes steeply. You will pass through some very small villages and will come to the town of San Miguel 35 minutes after leaving La Vasconia. Mastatal is about 4 kms past San Miguel. Our house has a red roof and black gate, and is at the only intersection in Mastatal, the road to the right taking you to the Zapatón Indian Reserve, and the road going straight to Puriscal.
The other route from the Central Pacific Coast is longer but less steep and can be traveled year-round in a two-wheel drive car. This road takes you through the towns of Vista del Mar, La Gloria and Guarumal. The road begins about 5 kms west of Parrita, and is marked by a sign pointing to Puriscal. After a few kilometers on this road, you will come to a 'fork'. Stay straight (do not go left). If you are not sure, stop and ask somebody. Continue straight passing through small villages. If you need to do any shopping, La Gloria is the last town of any significant size. After passing through La Gloria, continue straight for about 30 minutes until you come to an intersection. There are a number of signs here, which you will see the back of, and a small bus stop. One of the signs announces Mastatal. Take this right hand turn, and continue for 6 km to the town of Mastatal. There is one intersection along this road. Stay left and continue down the road. We are on your left as you enter town. The house has a red roof and the gate is black We do not have a sign. Make sure not to confuse us with Villas Mastatal, another project in our community with a similar name. .
Bus from the Central Pacific Coast
First you must get to Quepos or Parrita. From Quepos, take one of two buses each day that go to San José via Puriscal. These buses leave from the Quepos bus station at 4:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. (check with the bus station for possible changes in times) and pass through Parrita at approximately 5:15 a.m. and 1:45 p.m. There are other buses that go from Quepos to San José, but not via Puriscal, so you will have to be sure that you are on a bus that goes via Puriscal. Once you are sure that you are on the right bus, tell the bus driver that you are going to El Cruce de Santa Rosa. From Quepos, the bus heads northwest and passes through the town of Parrita, and then turns north headed for Puriscal. After about 1 hour and 15 minutes from this turnoff, you will come to the small town of Guarumal. There is a restaurant there named La Union. The morning bus out of Quepos arrives to La Union around 6:30 a.m. and the afternoon bus around 3:15 p.m. After leaving/passing through Guarumal, get ready to disembark from the bus. You want to get off at El Cruce de Santa Rosa, about 1.5 km after Guarumal. There is a simple bus stop and a number of signs that mark the intersection. From here, you will either have to walk the 6 km to Mastatal, hitchhike, or wait for the bus to Mastatal that passes by at approximately 4:35 p.m. (expect on Sundays when there is no bus to Mastatal) The latter is not a good option for travelers taking the early bus out of Quepos. Traffic on the road from El Cruce to Mastatal can be sparse. Our house is on the left as you enter into the town of Mastatal. Make sure not to confuse us with Villas Mastatal, another project in our community with a similar name.

–Develop my blog voice. Rather than just sharing photos, DIY's, etc, I really hope to develop my "blog voice." In 2014, I attended the HerConference in NYC and roomed with Alison Leighann. As longterm followers of each other's blogs, I asked her if she thought my personality matched my personality. She replied that it did for the most part but I'm more funny in person. SUCH VALUABLE INFORMATION! So with this, I really want to share more of my personality and more stories. I want you darlings to feel like you can connect and relate to me.
–Switch to WordPress? I've been thinking about this for well over a year now and I think this is the year I'll finally "man up" and do it. I'm just so comfortable with Blogger – it's so easy to use and we've been great friends for well over 5 years. But, I think it may be about time to break up this relationship and own my own content.
–Redo my About Me Page. This is long overdue. While some of the information is still relevant, I really want to redo the whole page in a creative way. Thoughts and ideas, anyone?
–Comment more! Blogging is all about creating a sense of community. I love reading blogs and often find myself lost in blogland on a daily basis on blog's I've never heard of (tip: click on other blogger's sponsors. It helps the blogger out and help you find new bloggers to connect with!). I read a lot of posts but sometimes get so caught up in reading or flying through too many posts in a short time, I forget to leave a comment.
–Get to Level B2 in German. I have completely rediscovered a love for learning languages while abroad. Since I hope to (eventually? maybe soon?) start a career, or at least a job, in Germany it would be beneficial to learn the language (duh). Alex bought me a few language books and the Babbel app for Christmas and my new host family is letting me borrow a few grammar books. I'm also thinking about signing up for a course (I found a really good deal on Groupon Germany!). My intentional goal here is to reach fluency as soon as possible so I can start applying to German universities to get my Masters in 2016!
–Journal at least 2 times a week. While in Italy, I journaled everyday. Italy was a crazy time in my life and I wanted to document it. Since leaving the land of pasta, I have forgotten to continue to journal. I really want to get back into it because I am still abroad and I want to be able to recall what I felt during this crazy time in life. Psst, you'll get a peak into my Italy journal soon!
–Lose the weight I put on in Europe. It was bound to happen since I have been surrounded my so many good foods that MUST be tasted! Now that I'm finally settling down and "slow traveling," it's time to get back into my normal food and exercise routine.
What are your goals for 2015?
With Love,

Hair loss can be such a disaster! Luckily Minoxidil Regroe can help address this concern. Studies indicate that if treatment begins at the first sign of hair thinning; hair regrowth products such as Minoxidil can work faster and much more effective than in more extreme cases of falling hair.
Minoxidil is a potent solution derived from extensive medical research and medical testing. It is clinically proven to prevent hair loss. Minoxidil works by stopping excessive hair falling and stimulates hair regrowth.
Minoxidil Regroe is a topical hair growth formula designed to control hair fallout while promoting the growth of healthier hair strands. It contains the only formulation that is clinically approved by both US-FDA and the Philippine BFAD.
Hair growth requires constant stimulation and optimal delivery of oxygen and nutrients from the circulatory system to the hair follicle. Without these processes, your hair may lack the maximum fullness, strength and the vibrancy you want. Minoxidil Regroe helps stimulate the hair matrix cells to divide and produce thicker, healthier strands while promoting improved blood flow and better nutrition and oxygenation of the follicles.

Friday Guest Blog - Should you Employ Someone who Held a Much Higher Level Role in the Past?
By Lyndsey Meredith, Director of ethical recruitment company Meredith Consultancy Services
There are a lot of talented people out there at the moment who are currently un-employed. A lot of them have held high level positions in the past on good salaries and for one reason or another are now looking at lower paid lower level jobs.
In this case many may have been made redundant and are happy to work their way up again for the right role or the types of roles that they used to hold simply do not exist anymore. Alternatively they may be looking at a lower level role for other reasons, including having less stress or more life balance.
Employers are taking two different and opposing views on applications from these types of candidates. The first and more popular view in my experience is that the employer sees these candidates as over-qualified for the position and so the employer assumes that they are "just looking for a job for now" and will leave when another role more befitting their experience comes along. The second view from employers is that they are getting a lot of experience for their money and are actually getting a great deal that they would not have got prior to the recession.
I will let you take your own view. However, advice for employers in this position:
1) Assess the candidate on their ability to do THIS job.
2) Ask the candidate how THIS job fits in with their long-term goals and aspirations.
3) Ensure that the salary for THIS job is adequate for the candidate to live on.
4) Play devil's advocate! Ask the candidate what they would do in a few months' time if a job at their previous level came along.
5) Ensure that the candidate will not continue looking for employment once employed with you.
Unfortunately there are no guarantees when it comes to people but go with your gut feeling. There are some fantastic and talented candidates out there actively seeking work - don't discount anyone until you have at least met with them and asked the above questions.
Meredith Consultancy Services is a local, independent ethical recruitment agency. Based in Cheadle, it supplies high quality professional staff to companies across the North West.

Friday Guest Blog
By Neil Kinnon, General Manager, TransGlobal Payment Solutions Ltd.
For most businesses the trading journey at some time leads to making or receiving payments in a foreign currency. Whilst most payments within the UK are fast and reliable, with both transparent and low pricing, the same is not true when transacting in foreign currencies. Foreign payments have traditionally been the domain of the UK banks that use their relationships with other banks around the world to exchange currency and execute the payments. Although there have been massive shifts in the direction of trade, little has changed in the last 50 years in the ways banks handle your payments. The key challenges with this old network is that it moves money slowly, it does not allow track and trace of payments and with multiple banks in the chain, each one adds to the cost of the transaction. If you add foreign exchange into the mix, you will also find a large chunk of your intended payment gets gobbled up as it moves around the world.
Whilst it would seem banks are the necessary plumbing to make international payments and foreign currency exchange, they do not offer the only choice for businesses. As banks have been slow to react to the changes in global trade, non-bank providers have risen to the challenge and now provide much better routes for your global money movement.
Non-bank providers fall into two broad categories. Foreign exchange (FX) providers such as TransGlobal Payment Solutions and internet payment service providers such as PayPal. In general the internet service is good for low value and one-off payments, whilst larger or regular payments abroad should be handled by specialist FX providers.
When choosing a provider (or comparing one with your bank) the following criteria will help in making your decision:
1. How good is their global payment network? Can they make payments directly into the country you wish to pay in without using multiple banks and without having to use costly wire transfers
2. How transparent is the pricing? Do you understand exactly how much you will pay for your payment? Many FX brokers offer free payments yet hide the cost of currency conversion, meaning the total cost of the payment is hidden. Ask the provider to contract to a payment fee, an agreed currency exchange rate and agreed fees should anything go wrong with the payment
3. Do they provide a simple, free to use on-line system for payments that checks your payment details are correct and provides clear pricing on each transaction? Error checking will reduce the high cost of repairs should a payment be rejected.
Following these three simple steps and you will both simplify and reduce the cost of your international payments.

Better skills policy must be at the heart of an economic strategy for the North
Friday saw the publication of the Northern Economic Futures Commission (NEFC) final report. The two top line messages are that the northern economy is too large to ignore and thus revitalising it is important for national prosperity. Spurring on Northern growth is dependent on not one silver bullet but a combination of improving skills, infrastructure, innovation, investment and governance.
Improving skills is the most important of these drivers for growth in areas like the North of England. The OECD, Lord Heseltine's review and the BIS Select Committee agree as does the Richard Review of Apprenticeships, published last week. Improving skill levels in the northern economy has particular challenges. For instance we have:
• a higher proportion of people with no qualifications at all and a lower proportion of people with high-level skills in comparison with the national average
• outward migration of recently qualified graduates
• a mismatch between skills supply and the demands of local employers
• a lack of demand for skills among employers, the poor utilisation of skills that are available, and the lack of clear training budgets and plans for staff
• a lack of information about the current a future shape of the economy and the kinds of skills that will be required
A key factor in tackling these challenges is increasing the supply of high-quality apprenticeship places and equipping young people with the skills needed for gainful employment. The National Apprenticeship Service and its partners probably need to double the number of young people in advanced apprenticeships by 2015 to 60,000. To do this we need to shift funding out of intermediate apprenticeship places for the over-25s and undergo a major expansion of pre-apprenticeship training programmes in northern further education colleges. The development of local apprenticeship hubs or associations that bring together employers, training providers and trade unions to plan and deliver apprenticeship places is helping with this.
More fundamentally, if we are to better match local future employer needs with local skills training provision, local authorities and employers must have more say and greater control over public funding for apprenticeships and training. Localised approaches to skills policy have been highly effective in areas such as Michigan, Brandenburg and south Netherlands. By devolving a sizeable proportion of skills and welfare-to-work funding to local authorities and their partners in city-regions, we can replicate this approach. Local stakeholders are best placed to identify leading vocational centres of excellence focused on the key growth sectors and aligning public resources from all levels to deliver more coordinated and effective skills provision.
In Manchester, in response to recent initial changes to skills policy and the associated funding opportunities, Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce and New Economy (the economic development unit of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority) have created a joint venture to develop a unified Skills and Employment Hub.
This will secure greater ownership of, and influence over, the skills system by employers, particularly SMEs. This partnership is also seeking a more effective alignment of the skills system with economic opportunities so that it can respond to current and future labour market demand at a city region level. We are determined to develop one skills service for Greater Manchester with strategic leadership from both employers and the LEP's Skills and Employment Partnership so that investments can be coordinated to deliver the maximum value and service.
To enable initiatives like this to happen across the North, devolution of budgets for adult further education, skills and apprenticeships must be accompanied by increasing the capacity for gathering robust labour market intelligence at the local level and the taking of further steps to integrate employment and skills policy. The latter could include giving city regions greater responsibility for co-commissioning the Work Programme.
While skills will not grab the headlines, its effect on the attention-grabbing unemployment and GDP figures should not be underestimated. Skills policy is not hugely exciting, nor is it without complexity. It is though crucial to sustaining a thriving northern economy.
David McKeith is a commissioner on the NEFC and Chairman of Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce.

This is, quite possibly, my favorite pieces of math of all time. As I say in the video, I think it was the first time I realized why mathematicians care about the properties that certain shapes have which don't change as you squish and morph around that shape. Sure, the mobius strip, torus and Klein bottle are mildly interesting to look at, but until you see one used to solve a problem, contemplating these shapes feels more like an intellectual indulgence than math.
I never actually define topology in the video, doing so only really makes sense if you have some history with more abstract math, but I do think the viewer who understands the cleverness here has an appreciation for the spirit of topology itself.

This exciting game is taking place on Monday Night from the Stadio Olimpico and can be seen Live on BT Sport 1 HD with a scheduled 19:45pm (GMT) Kick Off Time.
Serie A – Roma vs Juventus Betting Preview
Roma have been difficult to beat as of late as they're unbeaten in their last 5 matches but they have lacked the conviction to win in the majority of those games which is why they find themselves 9 points adrift of Juventus who occupy top spot in the Serie A. If Roma are to stand any chance whatsoever of winning the league then they have to record a victory in this match. Roma ran out 2-1 victors in their last outing in which they faced Feyenoord in the Europa League.
Juventus come into this match in solid form as they also haven't lost in their previous 5 games, they had an extra two days to prepare for this Derby as they beat Borussia Dortmund 2-1 in the Champions League on Tuesday Night. Unless they suffer a defeat on Monday Night then I think it is all but guaranteed that Juve will retain their title. They have a 9 points advantage over Roma which could turn into a 12 point lead and have double Roma's goal difference.
Roma vs Juventus Head to Head Statistics
These two teams have played each other 46 times prior to this match, Roma have won 11 of those games, losing 21 to Juve with the other 14 games ending all square. At home Roma have a slighty better record, winning 6 from 22, drawing 8 and losing 8 to Juve.

Juventus come into this game in slightly better form than their hosts, Juve have won 3 of their last 5 matches and drawn 2 in that time frame.
Roma Team News
Manager Rudi Garcia has four players on his injury list heading into this must win match. Leonardo Castan, Balzaratti, Kevin Strootman and Victor Ibarbo are the players that will miss this game for the home side.
Juventus Team News
Juventus will be without their Captain Pirlo as he has a calf problem, the young Paul Pogba is also out along with Asamoah and Romulo from the midfield which leaves Juventus with very few options in the middle of the park.
Roma vs Juventus Average Goals Per Game Statistics
In the 46 games these two teams have played against each other there was a total of 121 goals, which gives us an average goals per game statistic of 2.63. In the 22 games played where Roma have been the home team between these two sides there has been a total of 52 goals which provides us with an average of 2.37 goals per game. Both of these statistics indicate we should see 2 or 3 goals scored in this encounter.
Roma vs Juventus Current Betting Odds Market
Roma are the underdogs heading into this game despite having the advantage of playing on their home turf, the recent head to head statistics aren't in their favour. BetVictor offer the best price for Roma to win @ a generous 12/5 – £25 Free Bets for New Customers.
The draw for me seems a likely outcome considering that the two teams have drawn two of their last five meetings against one another. I think 1-1 is the most likely scoreline if the game ends level. PaddyPower provide the best value for the draw @ 23/10 – £50 Free Bets for New Customers.
Juventus are the clear favourites heading into this match which is unsurprising considering they are nine points clear at the top of Serie A. BetVictor offer the best odds for Juve to win @ 29/20 – £25 Free Bets for New Customers.
Roma vs Juventus Free Sports Bets, Tips & Predictions
Roma know that anything less than a victory in this match will all but see Juventus win the Serie A come the end of the season, I think Roma will get on the score sheet at some point in the match and I believe their most likely goalscorer is Ljalic.
Juventus are missing two key midfield players heading into this match which will be a blow but I still think they have enough quality with the likes of Arturo Vidal and Claudio Marchisio to get the job done on Monday Night.
Time for my predictions now and my banker is going to be Juventus race to 2 goals as they have achieved that in their last four matches.
My saver is going to be Carlos Tevez first goalscorer.

The New York Times just finished a five part series called Preventing Cancer. In it, they review some common assumptions that people have about the causes of cancer and means of preventing it. Each of the five articles deals with a different potential cause. I've summarized the articles here, but I encourage you to read the articles. They help illustrate why epidemiology research can be so difficult, and why it's necessary to look at medical discoveries carefully.
Part 1: Diet
The article focuses on the effects of fiber and reports that there is little—almost no—evidence to support the idea that a proper diet can help prevent cancer. A good diet won't hurt, however, and does help prevent conditions like heart disease.
Part 2: Exercise
Again, there is little evidence that exercise can help prevent cancer. There is some evidence, however, suggesting it might be beneficial in colon and breast cancer. As with following a healthful diet, exercise has other benefits that make it worth doing anyway.
Part 3: Stress
Stress doesn't appear to influence the development of cancer either. This article does talk about some new research suggesting that cancer tricks the immune system into leaving it alone.
Part 4: Toxins in the Environment
Once more, a connection that seem like common sense is difficult to find.
Part 5: Genes
The study of cancer genetics actually has led to advances in the treatment of cancer, if not its prevention. The result is that cancer may become a disease that a person lives with (and for which a person consumes pills) for years. The situation is likened to that of AIDS nowadays.
I wish they could have expanded on the cancer genetics, but given space constraints and the interests of most readers, I understand why they didn't. I suspect that I'll make that a topic of personal study later on.

Scoreland review | Mr. Pink's Porn Reviews
MrPinks.com review date - 05/31/2016
If it wasn't almost universally understood that being born female is a huge disadvantage in most areas of life and society, most women are born with breasts. They grow them later on, sure, but by the time full adulthood hits many, many millions upon millions of women around the world have in their possession a two-headed man-manipulation tool that many use to coerce and convince the feeble male mind into submission. Few porn companies understand the power of the female breast more than Score Group, a company claiming to be "#1 in big boobs since 1992," and showcasing hundreds of its busty-as-fuck models on Scoreland, one of its flagship sites, it's going to be hard to deny Score that claim. Touting the likes of Cindy Cupps, Alexis Fawx, Lily Madison and many more heavy-chested beauties, Scoreland's scenes appear to include both sedate solo content and wild sex scenes as hardcore as they are HD. Buying your way into Scoreland's huge archive of huge-titted porno is easy: just lay down the required $29.99 minimum monthly membership fee, enter your credentials, unzip and enjoy! For their fee, members get daily updates and a huge standing archive focused almost entirely on one thing: breasts that go far beyond handfuls (more like bucketfuls or cratefuls) and the super-sexy women that possess them. How on Earth could any boob-man say no?
Are you familiar with ultra-busty Australian sensation Angela White or top-heavy Japanese A/V idol, Hitomi Tanaka or American mammary legend Christy Marks? The kind of woman appearing at Scoreland has huge breasts (between EE and GGs, even HHs) and a sexy-as-fuck body to support them. Samantha Lily, Anastasia Lux, Ms. Panther, Arianna Sinn, Noelle Easton, and the insanely hot Maserati also appear.
What's the point in showing off the large heaving boobs of such sexy models if you're not going to deliver high quality shots? Scoreland, thankfully, has fully embraced 720p High Definition videos, offering MP4 and WMV downloads as well as streams. Photo galleries also do a good job of bringing viewers high quality imagery: 800px, 1600px, and 3000px resolutions online and zipped.
Any boob-focused site can show off its models huge titties, but Scoreland does so with so much enthusiasm it's ridiculous. From doggy-style titty-swaying contests to three-way boob-fucking sessions to endless titty-creampies and cum blasts, Scoreland knows how to celebrate big breasts without losing an ounce of hardcore heat.
Now holding 2,212 individual movies and 6,002 photo galleries, Scoreland is inarguably a huge site almost overflowing with busty porno content. What's more, Mr. Pink has scored you, dear devoted reader, a discount that gets you inside Scoreland for a mere $19.99-a-month - a bargain for boob-men!
Strictly speaking, very little of Scoreland's content is exclusive to this site. Score Groups tends to redistribute its content to other company sites, sometimes in different formats or quality levels. Most of Scoreland's movies were released on DVD at some point and may have been licensed to third-party vendors both physical and digital.
None of Scoreland's videos can be viewed at 1080p, the now standard HD porno format. Whether or not Score will ever integrate the 1080p versions of its scenes into the sites from which said scenes originate remains to be seen. All we now know is that Porn Mega Load is where Score stores its 1080p pornography.
Being sourced from magazine and DVD editions of yesteryear means some notably drops in image quality can be seen here. Between updates of newly-produced smut, something from the archives will appear and, regardless of the viewing resolution (720p is usually on hand), look noticeably crappier.
One of Scoreland's favorite stars, Angela White, is pimped out as a key reason to become a Scoreland member. Most of Ms. White's best work was shot long after her stint with Score, long after she stopped only shooting solo and lesbian scenes. If you're after the best of the very busty Angela White, you're not likely to find it here.
So proud of its models that it stakes claim on being the "#1" big-boob site on the 'net, Scoreland is most definitely a haven for boob-men and the women they adore. Heavy-chested models fill the site with their marvelous flesh and personalities, throwing themselves into self-fondling and masturbation, lesbian sex, and hetero hardcore scenes that range from your basic disappearing-dick titty-fucking sessions to furious facials and messy finishes, from one-on-one vaginal sex to anal three-ways. Scoreland's 720p HD videos obviously aren't as visually rich as the 1080p versions held on Porn Mega Load, but they make for pretty solid watching, with obviously older productions the notable exception. (They're also in 720p, but clearly weren't shot in the format.) Scoreland is huge, just like the racks it immortalizes, but it also can feel a bit drab and dull at times, like everyone's having enjoying their work but that it is still very much work, not straight pleasure.

The town of Onslow in Western Australia's Pilbara has roasted through one of its hottest days on record, with temperatures soaring to an almost unbearable 48.
And forecasters are warning of an even hotter day to come on Thursday, with the national heat record of 50.7C likely to come under threat.
The weather station at Onslow Airport, nearly 1400 kilometres north of Perth, was in danger of frying as it recorded temperatures of more than 40C at 9am local time on Wednesday.
It peaked at 48.7C at 2.12pm (WST).
The Bureau of Meteorology predicts the Pilbara region around Emu Creek will potentially reach more than 50C on Thursday afternoon.
Temperature higher than 50C has been documented three times in Australia since records began over a century ago.
Mardie, also in the Pilbara, was the most recent to reach the level, in 1998, failing to beat the record set in the South Australian outback town of Oodnadatta on January 2, 1960, which reached 50.7C.
Soaring temperatures in the west follow an unprecedented new-year heatwave in which 34 locations – mostly in Queensland and NSW and with at least 40 years of data – recording their hottest-ever days between December 30 and January 4.
Queensland recorded its hottest day on January 2, with a statewide average maximum of 41.82C.
Narrabri in NSW broke the record high temperature by 3.6 degrees – the largest margin by which a long-term record has been topped.
And cities and towns including Tamworth, Gunnedah, Moree, Glen Innes and Inverell in NSW, and Toowoomba, Roma, Blackall, St George and Gympie in Queensland all experienced their hottest-ever days.
The heat in the Pilbara is caused by the super-heated air mass that hit the east coast earlier in the month, and which has circled the continent since forming over the Nullarbor in late December.
The bureau's Annual Climate Statement from 2013 confirmed last year was Australia's hottest on record.

"To read is to grow." That is the slogan of Cuba's International Book Fair, which becomes the center of attention for all Cuban readers every year. And in the spirit of that slogan, a quotation from Cuban national hero José Martí, the 22nd edition of the fair will take place February 14-24, 2013 in Havana, and until March 10 in the rest of the country.
Generally considered as the most important yearly event in Cuba's cultural panorama, the 2013 book fair will honor two renowned intellectuals: Cuban-Uruguayan writer Daniel Chavarría, winner of the 2010 National Literature Award, and Cuban historian Pedro Pablo Rodríguez, winner of the 2009 National Social Sciences Award.
The fair also will be dedicated to Angolan literature. The literary production of that multi-ethnic southwest African country is practically unknown in Cuba, and the fair will be a good opportunity for Cubans to learn more about Angola's rich cultural heritage, which dates back to the kingdoms before the inrush of Europeans into Africa, said Zuleica Romay, president of the Cuban Book Institute, when she officially announced Angola as the guest of honor country for the 2013 fair.
At the announcement, Angolan Culture Minister Rosa Cruz da Silva expressed her "great satisfaction at that honor" and she predicted that the event would serve to "rebuild and recover" elements of "common history" from both nations.
According to sources at the Cuban Book Institute, Cuba will host the largest exhibit of Angolan literature ever organized in Latin America, comprising various anthologies of poetry and fiction and a large number of books by the country's bestknown authors.
The 2012 book fair, which was dedicated to the culture of the people of the Greater Caribbean and Cuban writers Ambrosio Fornet and Zoila Lapique, brought together visitors from 41 countries for 10 days at the fair's main venue, the San Carlos de la Cabaña fortress in Havana.
Hundreds of stands and almost 800 literary, professional, academic and artistic activities attracted more than two million people all over the island, drawn by their interest in learning about the latest developments in Cuban literature and obtaining classical and contemporary works from other countries.
While an initial book fair was organized in Cuba in 1937 by Cuban historians Emilio Roig de Leuchsering and José Luciano Franco, the first Havana International Book Fair was held in 1982. At that event, hosted by the Museo de Bellas Artes, Cuba's national fine arts museum, Bulgarian writer Georgi Dimitrov, José Martí and Cuban poet Nicolás Guillén were honored. Subsequently, the book fairs were held biannually, and were limited to the Cuban capital, until the year 2000.
At the opening of the 21st century, the fair has continued and grown, spreading to all of Cuba and faithfully following through on its purpose of promoting literature as a phenomenon for the masses, for all of society. At the same time, it has continued to develop as an appealing venue for exchange between authors, publishers, librarians and distributors.
Throughout its three decades of history, Cuba's most important literary event has paid tribute to Cuban writers such as Cintio Vitier, Fina García Marruz, Roberto Fernández Retamar, Miguel Barnet, Nancy Morejón, Antón Arrufat, Jesús Orta Ruiz, Reynaldo González, César López, Pablo Armando Fernández, Abelardo Estorino and Fernando Martínez Heredia.
Guests of honor have included delegations from Mexico, Italy, Spain, France, the Andean Community of Nations (Bolivia, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru), Germany, Brazil, Galicia (Spain), Chile and Russia.

Wish You Were Here is a 1987 British comedy-drama film starring Emily Lloyd and Tom Bell. It was written and directed by David Leland.[1] The original music score was composed by Stanley Myers.[1]
Sixteen-year-old Lynda Mansell (Emily Lloyd) lives in a small English seaside town in the early 1950s. She is feisty and precocious and tries to shock other people with her vulgar and saucy tongue (her favourite insult is "Up yer bum"). Bored with conventional jobs (which she frequently loses) and her town's dull young men, Lynda has her first sexual experience with Dave (Jesse Birdsall) but after she has slept with one of her father's middle-aged friends (Tom Bell), her life changes. She becomes pregnant and her father, a somewhat rigid and conventional man, disowns her. Desperately she tries to seek an illegal abortion but in the end decides to become a mother.
"Wish you were here" is a sigh Lynda makes because of her dead mother, who understood her and protected her from her intolerant father. Beneath her cheeky exterior, Lynda is a vulnerable girl who seeks love and a place in life; she lives in a time when it was difficult for teenagers like her to do that in their own way.
The movie was based loosely on the memoirs of the British madam Cynthia Payne as an adolescent growing up on the Sussex coast.[2] It was filmed in the Sussex towns of Worthing and Bognor Regis.
Wish You Were Here has an overall approval rating of 89% on Rotten Tomatoes.[3]

Three Baptisms in Two Days!
What a weekend in the Hampton Roads Campus Ministry! After A great Devo Friday night and a spectacular Sister's Encouragement Night on Saturday night, God blessed the HRC Campus with Laurine Mason from ODU and Desmond Fogg from NSU getting baptized on Sunday morning and Dennis Patterson from ODU on Monday afternoon.
When the end of the semester rolls around, so many things are grabbing for people's attention. Papers, projects, playoffs, and performances all start to ramp up and it can become easier and easier to be distracted from God. It is truly inspiring how these incredibly faithful freshmen have taken stands on where God belongs in their lives: FIRST, all the while excelling in their academics and athletics.
God has truly been working in the lives of so many people on the Hampton Roads Campuses and we can't wait to see how God finishes the rest of the semester. Welcome to the family Laurine, Desmond, and Dennis! We are so excited for the decisions you have made and we can't wait to see how God will use all of you in the future!

Study Guide: Sakaguchi Ango's "In the Forest, Under Cherries in Full Bloom"[1]
*Sakaguchi Ango 坂口安吾 (1906-1955): Novelist. Born in Niigata, Sakaguchi was one of a group of young Japanese writers to rise to prominence in the years immediately following Japan's defeat in World War Two. In 1946 he wrote his most famous essay, titled "Darakuron" ("On Decadence"), which examined the role of bushidō during the war. Click here for Aozora Bunko texts.
Study Questions
1. Identify the narrator/point of view. Where is the narrator? In what era is he located? What is his style of narrative? Does he use more "showing" (representation) or "telling" (presentation)? What is his attitude toward the events his is describing?
2. The narrator begins his story by explaining the different attitudes toward cherry blossoms, past and present. Explain these differences.
3. Describe the male protagonist of the story. Describe his occupation, personality, circumstances, intellectual capacity, motivations/desires, etc.
4. Describe the beautiful woman he kidnaps and makes his eighth wife. Describe her personality, looks, worldview/ethics, proclivities/fancies, behavior, motivations/desires, background circumstances, attitude toward husband, etc. How is she different from the other seven wives?
5. Why is the sensation felt by the narrator when standing under the cherry blossoms in full bloom identical to the sensation when in the presence of his eighth wife? Explain.
6. What demands does the woman make to her new husband? Identify and describe each of them.
7. Discuss the power relationship between the man and woman. Who's "on top"?
8. Describe their life after moving to the capital. How does the man adjust to his life in the city? Does he like it? How do the other city dwellers regard/treat him?
9. Describe the wife's head-collecting hobby. How does she acquire the decapitated heads? What does she do with them once she has them? Explain.
10. Discuss the imagery/symbolism in this passage:
But the woman's desire was endless, and so now he was bored with that, too. Her desire was like a bird flying straight across the sky with no end in sight: flying on and on without a rest, never tiring, slicing cleanly through the wind.
The man himself was but an ordinary bird—perhaps an owl that hopped from branch to branch, stopping to doze now and then, maybe crossing a valley if it had to. Physically, he was quick and athletic. He moved well, he walked well, with great vitality. But his heard was a lumbering bird. Flying in an infinite straight line was out of the question for him.
From the mountain-top he watched the sky of the capital. A single bird was flying in a straight line across the sky, this sky that changed from day to night, from night to day, in an endless cycle of light and darkness. At the edges of the sky was nothing, just the infinite repetition of light and darkness, but infinitude was something the man found impossible to comprehend. When he thought about the next day and the next day and the next, and the infinite repetition of light and darkness, it felt as if his head would split in two—not from the effect but the pain of thinking.
11. Why does the bandit come to the decision that he must "bring down the sky" and kill his wife?
12. Explain the significance of this passage.
Is she me? he wondered. Was I the bird that flew straight across the sky with no end? If I kill her, will I be killing myself?
13. What happens the day they return to the mountains? What is strange/unnatural about the scene they encounter?
14. Describe the atmosphere under the cherry blossoms in the final scene. What happens to the woman? Why is the man now able to sit under the cherry forest in full bloom without a feeling of dread/loneliness?
15. What symbols can you find in the work? Explain their significance
16. Why do the two characters disappear in the final scene? Explain.

A person must choose a sunscreen with minimum SPF 15. In the market, the sunscreen is available in between SPF 2-60. If you spend some time of day in pool then choose a sunscreen that is waterproof and gives you about 80 minutes in the water.
The summers are a camping season which means bugs and bug bites. To avoid from such painful bites, one must wear bug repellent. Before availing the repellent, you must check the label and ingredients. Among others, one must choose with natural ingredients.
In summer, the kids like to spend more time in parks, and gardens which mean they are more susceptible to cuts, scrapes, and small injuries. In those cases, a well-stocked, basic first aid kit can heal most wounds. So, purchase the summer pharmacy products like band-aids, antibiotic ointments, q-tips, and cleansing wipes to save more on drugs.
To have safe, enjoyable summers, select online Canadian pharmacy. One must stock up on all your summer sunscreens, bug repellents, and first aid supplies through an online pharmacy to save money around 70 % and have door step directly.

Many elementary school desks of today hold bright futures within their tiny frames. And while in most cases defacing or carving into desk tops results in punishment, some end up on display. This is the case for Walt Disney's 2nd grade school desk, which can be viewed in an exhibit called One Man's Dream at Disney Hollywood Studios. The letters 'W.D.' can clearly be viewed as evidence that one student was already dreaming about carving out his celebrated career.
2nd Grade School Desk used by Walt Disney
Born in Chicago, Walt Disney and his family moved to Kansas City when he was nine years old. While attending Benton Elementary School, Disney took Saturday drawing classes at the Kansas City Art Institute. It's been said that he got his start drawing animals from books checked out from the public library.
Illustration Desk used by Walt Disney
Later in his twenties, Disney began working in an advertising agency as an illustrator. A small mouse reputedly lived in one of Disney's desk drawers at this studio and supposedly influenced the creation of what later became one of the most famous cartoon characters of all–Mickey Mouse.

How to Do the Asymmetrical Forward Bend (Parshva Uttanasana) in Yoga
The asymmetrical forward bend Yoga posture stretches each side of the back and hamstrings separately. The Sanskrit word parshva (pronounced pahr-shvah) means "side" or "flank," and this posture indeed opens the hips, tones the abdomen, decompresses the neck, improves balance, and increases circulation to the upper torso and head.
Stand in the mountain posture and, as you exhale, step forward about 3 to 3 1/2 feet (or the length of one leg) with your right foot.
Your left foot turns out naturally, but if you need more stability, turn it out even more — but not past 45 degrees.
Place your hands on the top of your hips, and square the front of your pelvis; release your hands and hang your arms.
As you inhale, raise your arms forward and then overhead.Credit: Photograph by Adam Latham
As you exhale, bend forward from the hips, soften your right knee and both arms, and hang down.
If your head isn't close to your right knee, bend your knee more. If you have the flexibility, straighten your right knee — but keep it soft.
As you inhale, roll up slowly, stacking the bones of your spine one at a time from the bottom up, and then raise your arms overhead; relax your head and neck downward.
Rolling up is the safest way to come up, but if you don't have back problems, you may want to try more advanced techniques after a few weeks.
Repeat Steps 3 and 4 three times, and then stay in Step 4 for 6 to 8 breaths.
Repeat the same sequence on the left side.
In the classic version of this posture, both legs are straight and the forehead presses against the forward leg.
To make the posture more challenging, square your hips forward and rotate your back foot inward.

Xbox One - ya blew it...
There have been no shortage of people basing Microsoft's new console the Xbox One over the past two weeks since its announcement, and I for the most part have defended it. But today's announcement of the restrictions placed on the next generation console are just plain ridiculous.
Have a look at the infographic below - the 360 has been my console of choice, but I'm seriously unimpressed by its follow up. Disgusting.
Beyond Recognition - The story of a full face transplant →
A great piece from The Verge's Katie Drummond on a extraordinary science of transplanting a human face:
Cheryl's face was the best match that surgeons had found for Tarleton, but it wasn't perfect: Tarleton's body was already producing some key proteins that might fight off the transplanted tissue, and Pomahac estimated that the procedure carried up to a 20 percent chance of failing completely. If it did, surgeons would be forced to remove the transplanted tissue, leaving Tarleton with some variation of the disfigured face she'd had before the procedure.
Points too for the beautifully produced video of the story.

The One-Person Product →
I'm a little late to the party on this one, but Marco Armet's inside look in to the acquisition of Tumblr by Yahoo is a great read:
Anyone who knows David can tell, very clearly, that he wrote every word of his announcement post. Not only did Yahoo let him end it like that, but the subhead on their official press release shows that Tumblr and Yahoo are seeing eye-to-eye on quite a lot already. In many ways, this feels more like a merger than an acquisition. This is clearly what David believes is best for his product. On such big decisions, he hasn't been wrong yet. This time, though, I don't have any doubts.
Marco was one of the driving forces behind the creation of Tumblr and his unique perspective on the company and it's founder is second to none.
How do fire sprinklers work?
Following a post on Reddit, user Candlematt posted to a video demonstration of how ceiling mounted automatic fire sprinklers work. It may sound a little dry (pardon the pun) - but the technology used is strikingly simple and effective. Fascinating stuff!
Why 3D Printing Is Overhyped →
I'm generally not crazy about the Gawker network, but this piece from Gizmodo.uk is great:
Images show gloss plastics with complex shapes that have been produced on machines worth hundreds of thousands of pounds, and then have been meticulously post-processed for hours, days, even weeks, at great expense by highly-trained professionals. People see images or videos of 3D printed mechanisms, 3D printed tables, material 3D prints, and of course guns, and then they see that they can buy one for under £500 and think WOW! I can do all this at home — this is the future! And it is, in some respects — it's going to open so many things up in the world. But that doesn't mean to say that you will do it yourself or that it will decentralise manufacturing, like the hype seems to suggest.
The author (Nick Allen) describes the current fascination with the technology as being part of a honeymoon period for 3D printing, with the public's growing excitement over the technology not being matched by the reality of what is actually possible.
Well worth your time.
Strongbox and Aaron Swartz →
I'm fascinated by the life of Aaron Swartz and the work he was able to complete before in tragic suicide earlier this year. Today The New Yorker launched a new service called 'Strongbox' that allows anyone to provide documents to the newspaper in a completely anonymous and untraceable fashion
In truth it is such a shame that such a service is needed, especially with President Obama's hostility towards whisteblowers and a number of news organisations. Aaron was one of the good guys, a great loss for so many online and off.
"Aaron Swartz was not yet a legend when, almost two years ago, I asked him to build an open-source, anonymous in-box. His achievements were real and varied, but the events that would come to define him to the public were still in his future: his federal criminal indictment; his leadership organizing against the censorious Stop Online Piracy Act; his suicide in a Brooklyn apartment. I knew him as a programmer and an activist, a member of a fairly small tribe with the skills to turn ideas into code—another word for action—and the sensibility to understand instantly what I was looking for: a slightly safer way for journalists and their anonymous sources to communicate."
It's heartening to see modern digital technologies being used to preserve and protect free access to information and accountability. I desperately hope it proves to be a success, if for nothing else than a fitting memorial to an extraordinary human

Preview vs Release
Following a number of scathing reviews for the intial release of the OUYA Android gaming console, the company has responded in a statement to GamesIndustry.biz claiming the console is not yet ready for reviews:
"We will be making Ouya review units available in early to mid-May so that you are able to review the more complete consumer experience and prepare your coverage in time for the June 4th retail launch," a representative said. "To clarify for you--Ouya has sent no review units out to press. Any reviews you have seen online are a result from individuals who received early backer units from supporting our Kickstarter."
Although I can't find exact numbers, the company has begun to ship out thousands of kickstarter edition products to it's many supporters, yet at the same time claim that console is not ready for commercial release. Whilst this may make sense in an abstract sense, I just don't think this forced distinction holds any water in the real world. Developer previews of unfinished hardware and operating systems are commonplace in the gaming world and are necessary for development and testing. By comparison the OUYA is being sent to thousands of paying customers, not to test software but to be used as gaming machines, complete with consoles final hardware.
This move is somewhat understandable as the high profile kickstater campaign has forced the company into this early release of the product - but the question remains, will it do more harm than good? Has the funding model that enabled the creation of the device also created a set of expectations that are next to impossible to deliver on and which may ultimately kill the product?
As we work our way through the new world of crowd sourced funding these issues highlight rather dramatically the potential downsides inherent to the funding medium - particularly in regards to the management of consumer expectations. The OUYA may yet be a success, but it's development thus far can serve as both a source of inspiration and concern for other kickstarter creators.
The development of any creative product takes time, often much more than initially envisaged and when you add in thousands of eager investors in your product these set timeframes have the potential to lead to disaster.
Ouch... The Verge reviews Ouya →
This little box is a really interesting concept, and there does seem to be some potential to the device... Having said that, you can't help but feel that such a weak first release could be devastating to such a high profile device and company.

The aromas wafting through the ChocoSol kitchen are a heady mix redolent of coffee, nuts, coconut, almond oil and forest floor. But the smell of cloying confectionery chocolate as we know it? Not even a hint.
Raw chocolate, apparently, doesn't even have scent in common with its processed cousin.
No surprise, considering how it's "made." At ChocoSol, which rents space in a community centre in downtown Toronto, more than 20 varieties of beans are ground into nibs using a stone grinder. The friction generates heat, but only enough to activate the oils contained within: In order to qualify as raw, a food must not be heated above 46C (115F) - believed to be the maximum temperature for preserving nutritional benefits and digestive enzymes.
And that's why, for a growing group of artisans, raw chocolate is more than the latest gourmet trend; it's an ideology that upholds chocolate's centuries-old reputation as "the food of the gods." It is chocolate as a pure, whole food.
Containing no milk, refined sugar or emulsifiers such as soy lecithin, a piece of raw chocolate can taste earthy and unusual to some, fruity and full of nutty notes to others. Leave it on the tongue for just a few seconds and the natural fats melt into a velvety slick of sinful pleasure. You think Lindt's 70 per cent cherry and chili bar is a big deal? Honey, you ain't nibbled nothing yet.
Daniel Sklaar, a long-time chef whose Fine & Raw chocolates are sold at Dean & DeLuca in New York, thinks that raw chocolate could be the poster child for the whole-foods trend because it bridges healthy living and "culinary triumph."
"It points to the notion of authentic food, and that's one of the coolest aspects," says Mr. Sklaar, who offers bars and bonbons in raw permutations of cacao paste, cacao butter and nibs.
ChocoSol makes 85 per cent raw chocolate, sweetened with either blue agave nectar or coconut sugar. But ChocoSol also defines raw chocolate as any product that is true to pre-Hispanic traditions. So drinking chocolate such as tejate, an iced Oaxacan beverage made from minimally roasted beans blended with mamey seeds, rosita de cacao (a flower) and amaranth flour, also applies. Think Starbucks Frappuccino, but dairy-free and exploding with natural sweetness.
"We do the Mexican style inspired by the European aesthetic," explains ChocoSol founder Michael Sacco.
Among the company's most different offerings is the Jaguar bar, made from exotic albino beans that, according to Mr. Sacco, are the true definition of white chocolate: It's the colour of caramel, with a mellow butterscotch-peanut-butter taste.
Another bean variety is mixed with sea salt and hemp seeds, creating a product that is high in amino acids and essential fatty acids. "This way, it's not just a candy but a whole food because you're also getting the protein," says Matthew McFadden, who works alongside Mr. Sacco. "It's almost like a meal in a puck."
Some go further. Nutrition expert and author David Wolfe began experimenting with raw chocolate eight years ago. Since co-founding the Sacred Chocolate company, which makes organic, vegan, kosher, raw chocolate, he has become an evangelist for its nutritional properties. "Raw cacao is the No. 1 antioxidant food in the world, 15 times higher than blueberries when it's not degraded by heat," he says.
Mr. McFadden acknowledges that raw chocolate may not be satisfying to people who expect that "chocolaty" taste, but he believes this can be chalked up to expectations. People who sample pieces at farmers' markets are "really open to it."
The key to expanding its audience is to avoid getting preachy, Mr. Sacco says. "We don't want to beat people over the head with our ideologies. We're not hippies about it either. We want to make a quality product that's good for you and tastes great."
David Castellan, owner of Soma Chocolate in Toronto, who works with small batches of fair-trade, organic beans, is not convinced. He stays true to the European tradition of chocolate making, he says, because great flavour intensity only comes through after roasting and conching (when chocolate is evenly blended with cocoa butter) - two stages that require high heat.
As for health benefits, raw foods have their enzymes intact, which aids digestion, says Toronto holistic nutritionist Joy McCarthy. Furthermore, the sugars tend to be less refined.
But raw chocolate as health food? Wishful thinking, she says. "You want to be getting your antioxidants from blueberries and strawberries."
Regardless, Mr. Sacco's grand plan doesn't stop at chocolate bars. He envisions a ChocoSol Café alongside a "science-centre eco kitchen" to educate young people. He also intends to continue building infrastructure within the Mexican communities he visits often, and is working on a political manifesto devoted to - what else? - chocolate.
"We want to be about more than raw chocolate; we want to be an invitation to something more," he says. "Be careful, because when you taste ChocoSol you're actually getting involved in something a whole lot bigger than you think."

Nehemiah 6:15-7
The Wall Is Finished
15So the wall was finished on the twenty-fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty-two days. 7And you have also set up prophets to proclaim concerning you in Jerusalem, 'There is a king in Judah.' And now the king will hear of these reports. So now come and let us take counsel together."

The programme starts with a five day voyage on Leila, probably sailing down the coast to Ipswich. Trainees will have the opportunity to gain the Royal Yachting Association Competent Crew certificate. Normally there will be groups of five including the trainees and a leader. Alternatively, the Start Yachting certificate can be gained over two weekends. If neccessary, groups can also just take a trial weekend or day sail.
Following their competent crew qualification, trainees can access powerboat training to RYA level 2 which is a requirement for employment in the marine industry. This will involve taking control of a powerboat, some practical navigation skills and essential safety training.
We need volunteer mates to help us sail Leila, so there will five day watch leader courses on Leila in more challenging conditions. This will also instill leadership qualities that are important for job searches.
Anybody not in education, employment or training will be mentored throughout the programme to develop skills and achieve ambitions. We are developing close relationships with local industry, specifically the East of England Electricity Generating Group which represents 400 local employers.
Our Lottery project is open to anyone in or near Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth. We mainly focus on young people aged 12 to 30, but can accept older trainees who are disadvantaged by homelessness, unemployment, disability, and drug or alcohol recovery for instance. We set 12 as a minimum age because we only carry adult size life jackets and waterproofs, also younger children get homesick, however if you have a keen 11 year old let us know.
The groups of four plus one leader can come from any organization or a collection of individuals. Accommodation is in a fore cabin for two and the saloon for four, so same sex groups might be easier. if you have girls under 18, the leader must be female, as our staff are mostly male.
If you want to sail with us and know four people who would really benefit – get in touch. It is that simple!
We ask each trainee to pay £20 only, for their food for the voyage. This ensures that trainees have some investment in the project but we can waive this amount if it is problematic. The cost of the five day voyage, normally £2400, is paid for by the Big Lottery Fund.
Normally we run five day competent crew courses from 10am Mondays to 3pm Fridays, We can also run two weekends to get the Start Yachting qualification for people at school or college, who can't get away during the week.
Choose some dates from the latest bookings page
Each participant must fill in the Voyage Booking Form in plenty of time, so that we can get guardian/parental consent for under 18's. Any adult traveling with under 18's must have a current Debarring Service certificate – the old police check. We can help with this if you give us plenty of notice. We have risk assessments and insurance documents here that may be needed by parents or organizations.
We ask that all trainees agree to our sailing rules – read below.
There is a kit list as well as a suggested menu for the food you need to organise here.
We suggest that you don't bring expensive electronic equipment as it will be ruined by sea water. Mobile use and personal stereos are resticted on deck for safety reasons.
From Lowestoft, we will sail to Ipswich or Harwich on the first day. This will be a long and challenging sail. If the wind and tides are against us we may do this on the second day, spending the first night in Yarmouth perhaps. We will then spend two or three days sailing around the Rivers between Ipswich, Harwich and Maldon whilst we train you to run the boat. On the last day you will sail the boat home to Lowestoft. Hopefully we will have a barbecue one evening and spend a night at anchor somewhere. Have a look at facebook for recent voyages.
At the beginning and end of the year we sail from Ipswich to avoid long, cold and dark passages along the coast. We are more likely to then explore other rivers like the Blackwater and the Deben. Weekends from Lowestoft may involve a night in Yarmouth, whilst weekends from Ipswich may spend a night in Harwich.
Please let us know if you are having problems – please do not cancel at the last minute. It takes a lot of money every year to get the boat ready for you, and a late cancellation will mean that we cannot meet targets for our own funding from the Lottery.
We want you to sail with us every year, even when the Lottery Project finishes in 2018. If you can gather evidence of the benefits over two years, we will supply the berths at half price. We can then approach donors to cover the cost of an annual voyage of five days every year for six trainees, costing £1500. The evidence we gather will persuade someone to pay this for you.
Please give us feedback on this process
REMEMBER – To keep sailing, we must keep evaluating.
A voyage on board Leila is a fantastic opportunity to learn new skills, face new challenges, overcome fears and achieve things you didn't think you would be able to do. It could be part of a successful college, university or job application.
Completing a voyage demonstrates that there might be more to you than someone who just sits at home, playing computer games and watching Facebook.
Even if you are a high achiever with a long list of exam passes or successes in other fields, a voyage adds an extra dimension to your record.
Here are just a few of the experiences from a voyage which can be relevant in other areas of your life:
One thing is definite, you will never forget your time on Leila!
Leila Sailing Trust promises to provide a safe and positive learning environment for everybody to experience adventure under sail.
This means the crew will be encouraged to take part in all aspects of running the sailing vessel and work will be shared evenly by all.
Everybody will have the opportunity to discuss any issues or concerns which they may have throughout the voyage.
There are some important rules which must be followed to help make this happen:
Young people leaving the Vessel
You are expected to involve yourself in the running of the vessel as directed by the Skipper and other sea staff. If you fail to do so, or engage in behavior that is disruptive or offensive then you will be dismissed from the voyage.

Lets put our hooves together for the outrider who's been keeping our pastures clean while peddling his way along Woodside Road!
Many of us have seen a fellow riding his bicycle up Woodside Road with a couple of white plastic grocery bags on the handlebars. We assumed that he has done some shopping and is riding home the hard way. 'Not the case. We recently received a tip that the bicyclist, while not a COW, is certainly a hero of COWs living along the hillside. This fine feller has been picking up trash along the road as he gets his exercise. He does this regularly and that is the real reason that Highway 84 is so litter free. You will recognize him by his white hair and beard.
He deserves a big Hooves-ray in our opinion and think the Town should consider giving out community service awards for deserving folks like this. Lets all be sure to say, "Thank you!" next time you pass him by.
