BBC Review
'Tales Don't Tell Themselves' sees the boys continuing to put clear blue water...
Harry Holgate 2007
Tales Don't Tell Themselves is the third studio album from Welsh rockers Funeral For A Friend, and one that finds them in full-on top-of-cliff-helicopter-shot mode. Consisting of an arc of driving heartfelt rock songs, it tells the tale of a fisherman called David whose ship is wrecked and his subsequent emotional and physical journey back to land and his love.
Yup, you heard right, this is a concept album, and proud of it too. But before the memory of 70s prog and twenty minute solos grips you, all the songs here stand on their own individual merits as well as taking you through David's emotional voyage.
The first song, ''Into Oblivion (Reunion)'' opens with a nod to just those concept albums past with strings, synth, female choral backing and drums coming in slowly but, just as the fear starts to grip, the guitars hammer in and the band launch into a conventional but tightly produced emo epic. In true High Fidelity style, the next two tracks take it up another notch before ''On a Wire'' with its more introspective feel cools you down.
Just as well, because the two-part ''All Hands On Deck'' provides the guts of this album and marks it out as a mature and heroic third effort. Atmospheric, uplifting, energetic and just the right side of polished, these two songs show why FFaF have been an influence on quite a few bands, not least recent tour-mates Fightstar. The lyrics occasionally bow more to the need for rhyme than for sense ('for the road that we walk / have more miles left to talk') but the force of their argument carries it over such details with ease. There seems to be less complexity than in previous efforts and existing fans may feel a little short-changed, but those looking for an alternative to the powerful but often bleating strains of My Chemical Romance or the diet-rock of Fall Out Boy should take a listen.
TDTT sees the boys continuing to put clear blue water between themselves and their punkier beginnings, a process started with their last album, Hours, and continue to sail towards the holy grail of intelligent popular-without-selling-out rock-orientated emo. Thar be big fish in these waters, but FFaF have been charting a steady course and display the sort of musical maturity which could lift them up to their place in the pantheon, and soon if they're lucky.

I colored my penguin with Copics and used lots of punches, a little stitching and my snowflake embossing folder. The dp is from a K&Co Mat Pack.
In other news... today is my last post on the Sweet n Sassy Digi Blog, as I'll be stepping down from the design team at the end of the month. I still plan to have loads of fun with all the wonderful SNSS digis and clear sets, but I'm finding that I just can't keep up with all my responsibilities - my husband, my home, my children, my business, a new puppy, etc, etc, etc... and all my design team work as well.
I have been *so blessed* to be a part of this team, though! Thank you, Korin, for the opportunity, and I hope to see each of you around the blogosphere!

These Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Almond Cookies are categorized as a "healthy" snack by The Dallas News because of their alternative ingredients. They rely on maple syrup instead of sugar and whole-wheat pastry flour rather than refined all-purpose flour. At first glance, they might not seem all that healthful. Sure, each cookie contains 3 grams of fiber but also has 220 calories and 12 grams of fat. To compare, three Oreo cookies contain 160 calories and 7 grams of fat, but only 1 gram of fiber.
Still, the Oatmeal Cookies contain almonds, which are packed with important B-complex vitamins and vitamin E, and rich in mono-unsaturated fatty acids. What's more, the dark chocolate chips have more healthful antioxidants than many fruits and vegetables, including prunes, blueberries and spinach.
So go ahead and call them healthy but don't eat all 12 of them at once! They can be refrigerated for four to five days in an airtight container.

I was on my Papier Machie craft project when i ran out of glue ! This is not what you want when you are fully obsessed with your new idea!
I thought of more fun :) and decided to make my own glue out of flour and share my recipe of homemade glue with you .,.,
It is easy and non-toxic.
You will need flour and water....
To make a flour and water glue follow these instructions:
Boil 5 cups of water in a saucepan.
In a bowl, mix 1/4 cup of sieved flour with a cup of cold water. Mix to a smooth consistency (a bit like making custard). When completely free of lumps, add the mixture to the water in the saucepan. Gently boil, stirring constantly for two or three minutes until the mixture thickens.
Allow to cool before using.
This will make a runny glue. If you prefer a very thick glue (or if you are in a hurry for it to dry) use this recipe instead:
Thick flour and water glue:
Use 1 whole cup of flour to three cups of water. Make using the same method as above.
you can cool it by placing it in ice.
use it as you wish. :)

One of the stations was called 90's on 9, and this song by Snow was on. Aside from not understanding a single word he's saying, it's interesting to note that the artist is some white dude from Canada that grew up in the projects. Vanilla Ice has nothin' on this guy.

C4 On The Go - Ready to Go Pre Workout
C4 On The Go Ingredients
The new C4 RTD has a much slimmer "Explosive Energy Blend" than it's powdered C4 brethren. Gone are ingredients like TeaCor, which is a form of theacrine, Creatine Nitrate, and Velvet Bean.
This is a shame because we have really come to like the combination of theacrine and caffeine. If you haven't heard of theacrine yet, it's a plant extract that functions similarly to caffeine but without creating a tolerance to it. It also synergizes with caffeine for improved energy and mood (click the link above for more information).
Other changes include, rolling beta alanine into the "Explosive Energy Blend" along with Arginine Nitrate (which replaces Creatine Nitrate in the G4 C4). Whereas we new the exact dose of beta alanine in the new C4, the RTD version doesn't disclose this amount. N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine still hangs around to help improve focus, but it's the very last ingredient in the prop blend, which makes us think there's less of it in this RTD edition than in the G4 version

Probably one of the most common questions I get is about accessing a database. Everyone wants to get to their database no matter where they are or what device they are using. Act is the only CRM that provides that high level of functionality and flexibility – it's what I call Act Anywhere. So, let's dive into this a bit.
If you want to see your database on your computer – you can install and use the Windows version of Act. Or you can simply open a browser and view your database via the cloud (this option does require that your database be hosted or that you have installed Act for Web on the server). Another great option is to use a Terminal Server, which allows you to remotely connect to a Windows desktop on your server and do all of the things you would do as if you were sitting at your own computer.
If you have an iPad, you can access your database via the Act mobile solution, which is a streamlined version of your database and optimized for the iOS or Droid OS. Using this option, you can create and clear activities, send emails that record into Act, view Contacts, Groups, Companies and Opportunities… basically everything you would do if you were in front of your computer. Your smart phone would work in the same fashion.
You can also install one of the many Apps from the App store that manage remote desktop connections and connect back to your Windows desktop from your iPad. I have one of those cool keyboards that also has an iPad case so it looks like my iPad is a mini-laptop PC. It's super fast – in 3-4 clicks, I'm looking at my Windows desktop and it works from anywhere in the world. So I can be sitting on a beach in Maui sending emails and working in my database and it looks like I'm hard at work at my desk.
If you have a Mac, you can access your database via the Safari browser. You can also connect back to a Windows computer either using a remote desktop tool like Logmen or GotomyPC. You can also access your database by installing Parallels on your Mac.
So what about if you don't have an internet connection? In those cases, if you have a laptop computer or Macbook, you can have a remote database. This would be a separate copy of the database that would physically be on your computer. You would sync this database back to the main database before you head out on a trip and then sync it when you get back (you can sync in-between if you want). For the Mac, you would need to have Parallels installed to make this work.
And, there are a couple of great add-on products that allow even better access on your iPhone or Droid. HandHeld Contact is like having a mini-Act on your phone. You can see your Act calendar real-time and clear activities from your phone and they are cleared from your database. When you make a call or send an email using HandHeld, those calls and emails get recorded to History… all from your phone! You can even Record History on sending a text message. The other great addon is Companionlink which syncs Contacts and Calendars between Act and Outlook. This brings all of your Act contacts and calendar items into your Outlook contacts and calendar and then, assuming you have Exchange or Office 365, all of these same items go to your native Contacts and Calendar on your phone.
So, there you have it. Act Anywhere – your desktop, iPad, iPhone, Droid device or Mac… no matter where you are or what device you have, you can get into Act. Click here to get information on how CRM Total Solutions can help.

With football season just around the corner, cases of hypertension are sure to be on the rise. Hypertension, more commonly known as high blood pressure, has been connected to sports fandom for years. A 2006 Munich study found that hospitals reported twice as many cardiac emergencies as usual on days when Germany played World Cup matches. Among those with diagnosed heart problems, the rate was up to four times higher than the norm.
American football is no different. From interceptions to kickoff returns, football is a roller coaster of emotions ranging from excitement to anxiety. When blood pressure soars (excitement, anxiety and stress can do that), so does your chance of a heart attack or stroke.
From the first college football game to the Super Bowl and beyond, make sure you add these healthy tips to your game day routine to keep your blood pressure in check.
- Arugula is high in blood-pressure lowering nitrates. Make sure to add it to your salad mix!
- Try to get at least 30 minutes of exercise in before sitting down to watch the big game.
- Limiting your amount of sodium intake is another easy way to manage your blood pressure. The American Heart Association recommends limiting your sodium intake to no more than 1,500 mg a day, so try to stick to that guideline.
- Get a stress ball or other stress reliever for those unpredictable plays.
- Avoid processed meats and opt for turkey and chicken dishes during the game instead.
- Olive oil, when substituted for saturated and trans fats in your diet, may reduce your need for high blood pressure medication by 50 percent.
- Most importantly, remember it's only a game. When your favorite team loses, it feels like you lose to a certain degree. Stress and depression can greatly impact your behavior and health, from overeating to disrupting normal sleep patterns. Try to keep things in perspective. There's always next Sunday or next season.
From all of us at Overland Park Regional Medical Center, we wish you happy, healthy football season!

Social media is a magnificent thing…unless your ability to think your actions through is a tad lacking. Case in point:
The images of the devastation wrought by Japan's worst-ever earthquake and tsunami stunned the world. But as the death toll climbed higher, one student at the University of California decided it was the perfect time to film a racist rant about Asian students – and post it on YouTube.
In the three-minute clip, a blond girl, named on the internet as Alexandra Wallace, complains about Asian students using their cellphones in the library – and speculates they're "going through their whole families, just checking on everybody from the tsunami thing."We'll spare you the hideous video–it's all over the net if you want to see it.
via Alexandra Wallace: YouTube racist Asian rant on day of Japan tsunami | Mail Online.
Our advice is simple: Just like that heated email reply, nasty note or furious phone call–don't post anything to the net until you've had time to ask yourself:
- Does this clearly demonstrate my intent?
- Is there any way this will harm others?
- Could this backfire and ruin my project, career or even my life?
Special word to parents: please discuss this type of thing with your kids before they go to college (heck, talk to them about it when they're old enough to use a computer!). Besides the usual warnings about Facebook behavior, now you will want to add that posting videos should be carefully considered. It only takes moments of flip thoughtlessness (or worse–unvarnished bigotry) captured by a camera and uploaded to the world for a person's life to be forever tarnished.

Your business may be violating overtime laws without you even knowing it. Inadvertent violations of state and federal laws are more common than you think. There are complex rules that govern how you must compensate your employees. These laws can be confusing even if you have been in business for decades.
Helping employees look for answers when it comes to non-competes
In the initial days of starting a new job, a person is often presented with what seems like volumes of paperwork from operating manuals and policies to tax forms and other legal documents. It may get to the point where a person briefly scans any documents presented to them before simply signing their name without giving the matter much more thought.
What you need to know about the non-compete agreement
When you get a new job, you will likely be given a contract that is known as a non-compete, or in it's full iteration, a non-competition agreement. This contract is incredibly important for both the employer and the new employee, so it is important for you to know exactly what it is and what it means once it is signed.
Don't believe the hype when it comes to a severance agreement
It's a nightmarish situation that no one ever wants to endure under any circumstances: being summoned into a superior's office or conference room only to be informed that your employer has decided to terminate your services.
You do have options when it comes to non-compete agreements
In a previous post, our blog discussed how popular fast food giant Jimmy John's was requiring workers in many states to sign non-compete agreements and discussed whether such instruments would likely be enforceable here in Florida.
How would Florida law apply in the Jimmy John's case?
Even though most of our Florida readers know much of what goes on in the courtrooms of other states has very little bearing on our own judicial processes, there are those few out-of-state cases that can grab national attention. One in particular, the case of Jimmy John's and its non-compete agreements, may have grabbed the attention of our readers as well, forcing them to ask an important question: how would Florida law apply in this case?
Employment law contracts shouldn't be left to chance
Employment contracts, including confidentiality or non-compete agreements and severance agreements, are widely used and for good reason. The primary goal of these documents is to protect the rights of both the employer and employee. Florida business owners and employees could greatly benefit from the assistance of a legal professional who is specialized in Florida employment law when creating these important documents, to ensure everything is accounted for and nothing is left to chance.
New union employment contract agreed to by Florida city
The city of Fort Lauderdale recently agreed to a new police union contract. The employment contract covers topics such as take-home cars, pay raises, future pensions and even smoking. As part of the agreement, all officers will receive a pay raise of 1 percent, which is to go into effect retroactively, starting Oct. 2013. Officers will also receive a 2 percent pay raise in 2014.
Non-compete agreements can be critical for employers
When a company hires and fires employees they may worry about the safety of their company's trade secrets or client lists. The risk of an employee taking information can be very real. For employers who want to ensure their confidential information stays that way, establishing a non-compete agreement may be beneficial.
Former executive sues bank over employment contract
Many people in Florida are employed under the guidelines of an employment contract. Often used for executive level employees, employment contracts tend to dictate the terms of salary, benefits and severance, among other things.

Estate Planning
Estate Planning
Having accumulated wealth through your lifetime you want to make sure you provide financial security for your family. Sophisticated planning is needed, with decisions to be made on the transfer of assets as well as contingencies for healthcare and burial, guardianship and financial support for children, spouse and family.
These difficult issues are further complicated by constantly changing tax laws.
Your objectives drive what we do. As with our other services, we approach estate planning from the viewpoint of an individual client's needs.
We have a close association with Lodders Solicitors, which has one of the largest Private Client teams in the Midlands. Lodders offers advice on
wills, trusts, inheritance tax planning, probate, estate administration, charities and community care.
This means we can integrate estate planning into overall financial planning for clients.
There is no requirement to appoint Lodders as solicitors although many financial planning clients do. The advantage is that it provides convenience and peace of mind by ensuring that estate planning is an integral part of the financial planning process.

Wasn't sure where to post this article about Yeagley. Decided to post it under One Nation United, because of his support of this organization.
White Supremacist Suffers Humiliating Defeat in Run for Comanche Nation Vice President
by Dr. Al Carroll ( educatedindio [at] yahoo.com )
Monday Dec 17th, 2007 12:05 PM
David Yeagley, a white supremacist who has made a career out of posing as both a mainstream conservative and part-Comanche, fared extremely poorly in a special election for Comanche Nation Vice President, coming in a very distant fourth place out of four candidates.
Yeagley only got 102 votes, or slightly over 10%, in an election that also had an extremely low turnout of only 10%. That means that the number of eligible Comanche voters who cast their ballot for Yeagley was about 1%. Already Yeagley's loss has earned him a new nickname in Indian Country, ""1% Yeagley."
Yeagley and his supporters, in a rather bizarre denial of reality, claimed victory since he expected to only get "about five votes." Yet elsewhere in Indian Country, Natives that are familiar with Yeagley's chequered career are celebrating his getting his head handed to him.
Yeagley became enrolled with the Comanche Nation by accident, because his stepmother was Comanche. Kiowa disabled rights activist Cinda Hughes investigated and uncovered that it is a fairly open "secret" among Comanches that Yeagley was adopted. Comanche traditions do not allow for banishing anyone, no matter how contemptible their actions or beliefs.
Yeagley is a member of the white supremacist One Nation, which works against American Indians, especially on the issue of tribal sovereignty. He also is a speaker for the notoriously anti Semitic John Birch Society, best known for its bizarre conspiracy theories. Yeagley also is a supporter and associates with members of the National Alliance, the neo-Nazi skinhead group Storm Front (a Storm Front member moderated a section of Yeagley's message board on Jews), the eugenics website Gene Expression, and self described white nationalists and anti immigrant vigilantes the Minutemen.
Yeagley has long been a notorious character in Indian Country. He routinely refers to nonwhites (including American Indians) as "darkies." He has called for the mass murder of illegal immigrants and the mass deportation of all Arabs and Muslims. He frequently describes his admiration for Hitler, Columbus, and the Shah of Iran. Yeagley once compared Janet Jackson to an ape and called Martin Luther King "a blight on history." Yeagley received the strongest criticism when he attacked the Virginia Tech University shooting victims as "cowards."
Yeagley tried various tactics to boost his vote count in the campaign. According to one source in the Comanche Nation, literally every last vote for Yeagley was an absentee ballot. This suggests that Yeagley pushed his backers to vote early, before anyone could discover his unsavory past and beliefs.
Yeagley's campaign was marked by almost comical mistakes on his part. He gave a speech discussing Comanche clans. The problem is, the Comanche do not have clans. Yeagley was asked during a debate about the Indian Child Welfare Act, one of the most controversial issues in Indian Country. Yeagley was forced to admit he had never heard of it. Perhaps the most amusing fumble in his campaign came when Yeagley went to the Comanche courthouse, only to hide out from a group of Comanche women asking why he had lied about his stepmother being elected to a tribal post.
Such mistakes in Yeagley's attempt to pass himself off as Comanche are not new, and have long made him the butt of jokes in both the Comanche Nation and across Indian Country. Yeagley has often become an unwitting source of amusement at tribal council meetings, where anyone enrolled may speak. He once argued for the Comanche Nation to be the first to set up a tribally run bank. The first American Indian tribally run bank was begun more than twenty years ago, and more than two dozen exist today. His attempts to "look more Indian" also make him hard for many to take him seriously. Yeagley straightened his curly brown hair and dyed it black, and is fond of pancake makeup and turtleneck sweaters. Rumors swirl that he has had plastic surgery and have earned him another nickname, "Michael Jackson."
Yet his attempts to use dubious claims of American Indian ancestry to promote his white supremacy beliefs are no joke. Sometimes hardline conservatives find him useful to use as a token, and quote him as though he had a serious following within Indian Country. In this he follows in a long tradition of others claiming to be American Indian being used by the right wing such as 'Princess Pale Moon" and "Chief AJ."

People in the "Hatred" tell some Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape they will never bother us because of their leader is part Cherokee.
Yeagley is not as big a problem as white racists like Mike L. Graham. An enrolled Cherokee and a neo confederate (flagger), tea bagger and for anyone who has seen his posts in indian.com a very sick man. Graham claims to represent "United Native America", and his most recent cause is "Native Americans Against Obama", which circulates right wing lies and slander about President Obama (I've seen their website and they're all whiteeven though their videos are all about Indians). Those folks who have seen his racist photos of the president and black people. Having read his columns in right wing journals like California Chronicles, I believe that Mike is actually a front for some white right wing racist. He is in capable of writing coherent sentences much less a column, albeit, full of right wing propaganda. All people, regardless of race, religion or ethnicity have to stop being in denial and stop these racists from spreading their venom. Mike and his group have been reported to Southern Poverty Law Center for investigation. Its not about political ideology, religion, history, its about hate, and "Indians" like Mike are about hate.
Racists can be any race, its not really about race, its about fear, jealousy, greed and violence, but above all about power. No group or ethnicity is immune.
Good post, TrueNorth.
As for not liking President Obama, I know other Indians who don't care for him. Of course these same people did not care for George Bush either so it isn't really a race issue. More of a lack of trust of the American government. From what I've read and heard Russell Means has no great love for Obama as well. Personally, be they democrat or republican, I believe these presidents to be naught but puppets for the big corporations and not really serving the interest of the American People.
More B.S. Agustin Fuentes, white Hispanic, confuses "race" with "species," right off the bat. We're all the same species. We're not all the same race. Race is just another term for what are called "varieties" in other species. Anyone who thinks Aretha Franklin, Connie Chung, and Steve Martin exhibit "NO" genetic physical differences, must be blind.

Quite some time ago I spent countless hours behind the wheel of commercial vehicles, to the point that I have caught my wife in conversation with others quoting, "Don't you know? He is a professional driver." This usually results in shared chuckles by others, as it is reportedly a commonly recurring outward expression of the Y chromosome, likely overlooked by the mapping of the human genome, and barring XX chromosome counterparts such as Danica Patrick hopefuls on public streets. What I do take to heart from driver training seminars and having held a commercial license in the past in order to drive heavy commercial equipment inclusive of moving trucks, ten wheeler dumps, commercial buses, flatbeds with trailers and an occasional 40-foot 26-ton lead lined mobile CT unit, is that the majority of us on the road are not adept enough to drive while holding objects in our hands. Just like the driver who drove through three children in a crosswalk on their way to school just over a year ago. Or the person who rear ended two lifelong motorcyclists en route to a motorcycle manufacturing conference in the middle of the day, who were stopped with their feet on the ground in bumper-to-bumper traffic. The driver had taken his eyes off the road for less than a second, but had been too distracted to process the change in traffic flow.
It has been determined that driving while using cell phones and/or texting is often associated with a deeper intangible distraction of not being fully attentive behind the wheel, to a greater degree than when intoxicated. "When controlling for driving difficulty and time on task, cell-phone drivers exhibited greater impairment then intoxicated drivers." There are more than 100,000,000 cell phone subscribers in the US that use cell phones while driving. Strayer, Drews, & Crouch, 2006 Human Dept. of Psychology, 48(2):381-391. More than 30 states prohibit texting, more than a dozen the use of cell phones without hands free capability, and collectively, the majority prohibit all phone or electronic devices for drivers under 18 years old.
NH House Bill 1360 prohibits the use of hand held phones and electronic devices while driving, including while stopped at a red light. It does permit the use of phones and devices that operate through hands free and blue tooth technology. The bill further bans the use of all technology regardless of hands free capabilities for drivers under the age of 18. Opponents of the bill were noted as having concerns that the bill is too restrictive and overarching, that it over governs drivers' free will and that it would even restrict drivers being able to respond to an emergency from their personal contacts who might be trying to reach them while traveling. Such rebuttal is not relevant to the premise of the bill or the years of data supporting it. To foster the necessary culture change rather than having to kick the habit entirely, is the ever readily available and affordable technology for drivers to use hands free devices.
Driver behavior must be modified to check messages only when pulled off to the roadside or when parked when hands free technology is not available. In the event that a driver needs to call 911 without hands free technology, it is unlikely that they would be faulted for a gross violation; rather this could be understood as a necessary circumstance with more benefit than associated risk. However, there is legitimate concern regarding the inherent challenges with enforcing the law, which will be coming to New Hampshire roadways very soon.
"Gov. Maggie Hassan has signed into law a statewide ban on handheld cell phone use by drivers. The measure cleared the legislature in May [2014] and takes effect July 1, 2015. Fines range from $100 (first offense) to $500. The education/marketing push is under way, with the slogan, "Hands Free, a Better Way to Be." The governor said the new law tackles, "an increasing danger that we must address." Refer to Hands Free Info, updated March 23, 2015, for related supporting legislation.
Along with law enforcement having the right to seize cell phones to determine if they were in use while driving should be a commonly shared public health responsibility and accountability for all drivers. All of us need to share the awareness for our own safety and for others who are put at risk everyday by those of us who can't modify a very dangerous and self-serving behavior. Fortunately, technological intervention is a means to continue using phones while driving, with technology getting even slicker very quickly.
So, there is no need to see droves of drivers whizzing by with their heads cocked or bobbing up and down while keyboard fingering, their hands held out like waiters holding a tray of plates, or other device related distractions, that hugely increase the chance of crashing, and injuring or killing someone.
Spread the word. It will save someone's life.

Almost everything you need to know about downloading Android cracked apps
You will learn everything about android cracked apps.Read the entire article and share with your friends.
One of the coolest things about Android as a mobile operating system is that it isn't anywhere near as locked down or walled off as the iOS operating system from Apple is.
Instead of having to always download mobile applications directly from the iTunes App Store, those with android phones can download applications from Google Play, from Amazon, and from 100 or more different sources – including literally thousands and thousands of websites all over the net.
On top of that, android application files (APKs) are relatively easy to "crack". This means you can run all of your favorite premium android applications on your phone or tablet without having to spend a penny, giving you access to EVERY app out there whenever you want to use them.
Still, there are some critical things you'll want to make sure you are paying attention to before you download any android cracked apps and install them to your device. Here are three of the most essential tips and tricks you'll want to keep in mind:
Make sure your phone or tablet can run third-party APK files
The very first thing you have to do is double verify that you have opened up "Developer Options" on your Android device.
Even if you slide over Android cracked apps and the files necessary for running them to the storage of your phone or tablet, your device isn't going to recognize those files as legitimate until you have Developer Options toggled to the on position.
This is a really simple and straightforward fix – just dive into settings, find the Developer Options button, and flip it to the on position – and from there you are ready to rock 'n roll!
Always download Android cracked apps from trusted sources
Of course, you don't want to throw just any old android cracked apps to your device without knowing exactly what they are, exactly where they came from, and that they are 100% safe and secure.
This is a process as simple as double verifying the source of the androids you are going to be downloading, something that couldn't be any easier thanks to the power of Google and online reviews.
Finding the best sources for paid android apps that have been cracked – and that are 100% free and 100% legitimate – is just as easy as firing up the search engine, typing in a couple of critical keywords, and then using the links that are provided to you.One of the best website to get those kind of apps is http://apk-best.com.
Keep your Android cracked apps up to date
At the end of the day, you'll want to make sure that the Android cracked apps you are downloading and using are always kept up to date. They won't be automatically updated the way your Google Play apps are, so stay on the lookout for new versions of these apps and move them to your device as they become available.
This will protect you from attack, from malicious software, and from finding your favorite apps disabled just because they no longer work the way that they were supposed to unless they have been updated.

Land use and zoning issues are not typically well understood by members of the general public, even though they have quite the effect on how we manage our properties. In effect, land use and zoning laws are in place to regulate the sale or purchase of land, as well as any modifications or maintenance a homeowner might want to have done on that land. It's easy to mess it up — often times these situations are very complex, invoke older laws which are difficult to interpret situationally, and are best left to a real estate attorney to sort through than trying to figure things out on your own.

Litigation in the United States and You — How Much Americans Are Paying to Get Their Cases Heard
What You Should Know About Personal Injury Law
What is personal injury law? Personal injury law is the legally defined injury or harm to the body. This is typically compared to an injury to another individual's property. Additionally, personal injury law basics include both mental and emotional harm inflicted upon an individual. The term is most often used in reference to lawsuits that accuse defendants of causing injury to the plaintiff, typically as a result of negligence. Typically personal injury law differs from state to state. However, no matter where you are, personal injury law basics remain the same and always concern the area of law that lets a victim to collect monetary compensations for the losses they experienced from the inflicted injury, whe

5. Migration Russian River Valley Chardonnay (2010)
Average price: $28.39 from 1 store
Pineapple, lime and apple come together on the nose along with a rather gentle touch of oak that contributes some almond, vanilla, and earth tones as opposed to overt spiciness. Medium full and bright in the mouth, this delivers lots of classic creamy pineapple flavors framed by modest but obvious oak spice. It's a bit riper on the palate than the nose suggests, though the finish does show more lime toned freshness. 87pts

These gluten-free muesli bars are the perfect size for school lunch-boxes.
Featured in Healthy snack recipes, Kids snacks
- 3 1/2 cups wheat and gluten free muesli (we used Freedom Foods brand)
- 1/2 cup desiccated coconut
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
- 11/4 cup sunflower seeds
- 1 tablespoon cornflour (see note)
- 100g butter
- 1/4 cup golden syrup
- 1/4 cup honey
Step 1Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease a 20cm x 30cm (base) slab pan. Line with baking paper, allowing a 2cm overhang at both long ends.
Step 2Combine muesli, coconut, cinnamon, pepitas, sunflower seeds and cornflour in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre.
Step 3Place butter, golden syrup and honey in a heatproof, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave, uncovered, on high (100%) for 1 to 2 minutes, or until melted and bubbling.
Step 4Pour hot syrup into muesli mixture. Stir to combine. Spread mixture evenly over prepared pan. Bake for 30 minutes or until crisp and golden. Remove from oven. Allow to cool in pan. Lift slice from pan. Cut into bars.
Cornflour is produced using either wheat or corn. Use the corn variety to ensure muesli bars are wheat and gluten free.

Election 2009: The Strange Case of NY23
November 3, 2009, was a great day for the Republican Party with resounding wins in Virginia and, improbably, New Jersey where Bruce Springsteen blared as Chris Christie began his victory speech. (I wonder if Bruce will sue.) But in the midst of the welter of re-upped GOP glory only one year after ignominious defeat, there was one outlier - New York's Twenty-Third Congressional District.
Now I realize that the surprise loser there, Doug Hoffman, ran as a Conservative, not a Republican. But I submit in this case that was a distinction without a significant difference because virtually all the Republican establishment had lined up behind Hoffman by the day of the election.
So why - in what was clearly a Republican year - did Hoffman lose? Well, there are several reasons and, yes, the Democratic victory was narrow, thinner than the five or so percent that went to withdrawn Republican nominee Scozzafava who herself endorsed the Democratic candidate. Still, the 23rd is a safely Republican, even conservative, district. In a year where the GOP racked up a 20% margin in Virginia and coasted easily in Jersey, a state in which Obama romped in '08 by 16%, what was the problem?
Well... I might as well say it... social conservatism. America is a fiscally conservative country - now perhaps more than ever, and with much justification - but not a socially conservative one. No, I don't mean to say it's socially liberal. It's not. It's socially laissez-faire (just as its mostly fiscally laissez-faire). Whether we're pro-choice, pro-life or whatever we are, most of us want the government out of our bedrooms, just as we want it out of our wallets.
Hoffman's capital-C Conservative campaign, however, tried to separate itself from the majority parties by making a big deal of the social issues. He was all upset that Scozzafava was pro-gay marriage, seemingly as upset as he was with her support for the stimulus plan. He projected the image of a bluenose in a world that increasingly doesn't want to hear about these things. Hoffman's is a selective vision of the nanny state - you can nanny about some things but not about others. I suspect America deeply dislikes nannying about anything.
There is, of course, a message in this for the Republican Party going forward. You can choose to emphasize the social issues or not. Today may show the former is a losing proposition.

In front of nearly 80,000 fans, the Warhawk Marching Band and Color Guard performed at Lambeau Field during the Green Bay Packers 2017 home opener. The band's halftime performance paid tribute to the Marvel Comics universe, and the postgame show included a rousing rendition of the "Warhawk Strut."
Thanks to a generous donation from alumnus Byron R. "Chris" Chrisman '59 in honor of his late wife, Mary Poppe Chrisman '57, campus has a vibrant new learning space. The Mary Poppe Chrisman Success Center will serve thousands of students with tutoring services.
To further set UW-Whitewater apart from its peers, campus has set up a Student Success Endowment Fund. A $1,000 gift provides more than 17 hours of instructional assistance every year in perpetuity. More than 150,000 hours of tutoring are currently provided every year.
Low-income students can be hit especially hard by an illness or unexpected car repair, causing them to miss classes, and in some cases, drop out of school.
To help more low-income students stay enrolled during financial emergencies, UW-Whitewater has established the Warhawk Emergency Fund. Individual students who apply for aid can receive up to $1,000, for anything from dental work to childcare expenses.
An initial gift of $315,000 from the Great Lakes Higher Education Corporation & Affiliates is already helping students, but these funds will be depleted in two years because the need is so great.
The Warhawk Emergency Fund will serve as a permanent source of funding to ensure student success.
The Crossman Gallery at the Greenhill Center of the Arts became the epicenter of printmaking as UW-Whitewater hosted internationally acclaimed artist Kiki Smith. In addition to giving a lecture, Smith spent a week on campus producing original prints with students. The Annette and Dale Schuh Visiting Artist Endowment — a $1 million gift from alumna Annette (Derge) Schuh '71 and her husband Dale — made the visit possible. Sculptor, dancer and performance artist Nick Cave will be the next visiting artist.
More than 260 students from all four colleges challenged themselves academically by participating in undergraduate research with faculty on campus last year, and every year student researchers present their work at state and national conferences. In science fields alone, more than 100 undergraduate students have co-authored papers published in leading journals since 2000.
Next year will mark the 25th anniversary of the McNair Scholars Program on campus, and with the milestone comes a significant investment in the program and its students.
Over the years, McNair has assisted first generation, low-income, and traditionally underrepresented students in pursuing graduate education by engaging them in research projects and other scholarly activities. The goal is to increase the number of Ph.D.s that students from diverse populations are earning. A recently awarded grant from the United States Department of Education will provide $257,503 in funding to UW-Whitewater per year for five years, for a total investment of more than $1.2 million.
When students have questions about the vast array of resources at Andersen Library, Ellen Latoracca works tirelessly to educate students, inspire future teachers, and generously share her expertise. As an academic librarian, she focuses on information literacy by assisting with research and writing online resource guides that are popular with students and faculty. She is the winner of the 2017 UW Board of Regents Academic Staff Excellence Award.
An innovative program that engages first- and second-year students to become paid research assistants for faculty members, the Research Apprenticeship Program was the winner of the 2016 Diversity Program Achievement Award from the Wisconsin State Council on Affirmative Action. The program is designed to eliminate the achievement gap between majority and minority students, and the student retention rate for RAP students after the first year is 96 percent.
The UW-Whitewater American Marketing Association maintained its premier position after being named 2017 International Chapter of the Year at the AMA International Collegiate Conference in New Orleans, Louisiana, for a record 13th time. The campus organization celebrated its 40th year in 2017.
Out of 140 competitors from 60 universities, UW-Whitewater students dominated the International Collegiate Sales Competition in Orlando, Florida. Karlee Nimmer, a dual major in journalism and marketing, won runner-up, and UW-Whitewater was named the top university. The sales program celebrated another victory when American Marketing Association sales team member Jordan Filip, a marketing major, placed first in the Perfect Sales Pitch Competition at the University of South Florida.
Stephen Gray became the first student in UW-Whitewater history to earn a doctorate at the university after successfully defending his dissertation, "Credit Decisions and the Effects of Earnings Quality." The Board of Regents approved the Doctorate of Business Administration program in 2013, and Gray is a member of the premiere cohort that began in September 2014. He and several other cohort members will don their newly created doctoral robes and graduate at the winter 2017 commencement.
On the wrestling mat, 184-pound physical education major Jordan Newman won the national championship in his weight class.
At the NCAA Division III Outdoor Track and Field Championships, social work major Theron Bauman won the shot put, and Parker Witt, a finance major, became national champion in the 200-meter dash.
The gymnastics team claimed its fourth team title in program history in 2017 at the National Collegiate Gymnastics Association Team Championship. English major Lisa O'Donnell won the national all-round and vault titles.

Erin Gallagher Online Counselling & Psychotherapy is the convenient and effective psychotherapy service that can provide you with the support you need to live a happier and more fulfilling life with renewed clarity and understanding.
More often than not we battle on through life and the challenges is throws at us because we feel like we can't step off the treadmill of our responsibilities to take time out for ourselves. Our lives progressively become more stressful and overwhelming and when faced with difficulty or pain, the road ahead can leave us feeling hopeless and isolated.
Online counselling and psychotherapy is a convenient and flexible way for you to carve out time for yourself. It gives you the opportunity to talk about what matters to you in a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental environment. You may have put off seeing a counsellor or psychotherapist about your problems because you feel like there isn't time or space for you to do it. Online and telephone based counselling is ideal for anyone who needs to speak to a professional about their problems, but has struggled to do so due to time or travel constraints.
Online psychotherapy and counselling is identical to face to face psychotherapy except you will speak with me, a fully qualified and BACP registered psychotherapist, in a confidential Skype call or telephone call in a location convenient for you. During the sessions we'll talk as we would if we met in person and you'll gain the tools, support and perspective you need to approach the inevitable problems which arise in all our lives.

Hello dear reader.
The purpose of this blog is to try to find ways to enjoy life as much as possible while dealing with chronic illness/pain. Recently, however, I'm fighting for any quality of life.
I'm talking about our government's decision to end opioid use. I've written before about the difference between use and abuse.
I read an article on Medium about the "Prescribed to Death" memorial being put up in Washington. Here's the link if you're interested:
I have to say in all honesty, this article infuriated me. This was my response:
I am so sorry for people who have lost someone to a drug overdose. That being said, I think this "memorial" is one of the worst ideas I've heard.
I live with chronic, debilitating pain constantly. Without the opiods I'm prescribed I would be dead. Period. I take the minimum amount of medication I can and still function. I don't abuse my medication.
I went so far as to have electrodes implanted in my head (TENS unit). I've had my nerves burned. The list goes on and on. Nothing has worked. So I rely on pain meds to get out of bed in the morning, be as functional as possible throughout the day, and be able to sleep at night. I'm one of the majority of people who take opiods. The ones who don't have a choice, who are responsible and careful with them, the ones who are being threatened with a death sentence by the government.
So put up your memorial if it makes you feel better. And start digging graves for the people like me.
Here's an example of how insane this situation is becoming…I'm always very careful to read the information sheets when I start on a new medication. I want to be aware of potential side effects and interaction issues. I was put on a different pain medication last week. No matter how responsibly you take them, your body will build up a tolerance over time and they will no longer work. After spending 6 weeks in bed because I was in too much pain to move, my doctor and I decided I had reached that point. I was shocked when I read the information sheet on this new medication. There was nothing about side effects. There were no instructions about things like whether it needed to be taken with food. There were two pages of small print as usual, but the only information was about how addictive opiods can be, how dangerous they can be, how if you took them while pregnant 😯 the baby would be born addicted, and on and on. I had to look the medication up online to find out potential side effects and instructions. Does anyone realize how dangerous that is, to not know which side effects are normal and which are life threatening?
This whole situation makes me angry because people like me, and many of you I'm certain, are being treated like we're doing something horrible by using pain meds for what they were intended to be used for. It terrifies me because I feel like my quality of life is being threatened… actually, my life itself. Nobody can be expected to live in constant agony, unable to function at all. Suicide rates are going to jump drastically if our government succeeds in making narcotics, opiods, opiates, etc. impossible to get.
Normally I would apologize for going on a rant, but not this time.
What do you think about this issue?
How do you feel about it?
I'd really like some feedback.
Until next time…

Five players ventured out in warm sunny conditions with a light breeze for what proved to be an enjoyable round of golf. Both Bob Taylor & Eddie "The Flying Dutchman" Van Keulen started well with the Dutchman scoring 22 points on the front 9 to Bob's 21. Bob faltered on the back 9 failing to score on holes 12 & 13 but then he resumed as though nothing had happened finishing with 39 points. The Dutchman's round started to unravel around the 14th hole & never quite recovered & he finished with 37 points. Dick Cleland finished 3rd with 36 followed by a disappointing colourful local identity Philip "Thomo" Thomson on 35. Graham Webster received the Mars Bar with a relatively high score of 31.
Month: November 2016
Burra Hotels Ambrose a Great Success
The rescheduled Burra Hotels Ambrose was held on Sunday in warm sunny conditions with just a slight breeze, ideal for golf.
The Club wishes to thank Coopers Brewery, The Commercial Hotel, The Burra Hotel & The Royal Exchange Hotel who generously sponsored the event.
A field of 48 players in 12 teams contested the event and enjoyed the conditions greatly enhanced by the provision of refreshment & steak & sausage sandwiches at Dick Secomb's tent erected near the 5th & 11th tees.
The winners of the championship (best gross score) the Kapunda #1 team of D Carson, W Strangward, B Pearce & J Lindablab, who carded a score of 61.
In the handicap section the Chairman's team, made up of Burra trio Dick Cleland, Bob Perry, & Eddie "The Flying Dutchman Van Keulen plus Klaus Heymann of Peterborough scored a stunning victory with a net 54.875, 3.25 strokes clear of the runner up.
Particularly disappointing was the performance of the Burra #3 team which featured Summer specialist Philip "Thomo" Thomson and Shawn "Sheep" Rayson. They finished well out the running for any prizes except the encouragement award (Mars Bar) which they avoided by 0.625 of a stroke. This award went to the Peterborough #2 team of A O'Dea, A Borowiche, A Ranarwitz & G Kennewell.

'Summer Time' Thomo Wins Again But Only Just
Colourful local identity Philip "Thomo" Thomson & noted Summertime golfer won yesterday's stableford on a count back from Michael "Tickers" Tickner. Both scored excellent scores of 41 points with Michael scoring consistent nines of 20 & 21 while Thomo started with an ordinary 17 points but stormed home with 24. It would seem that the current count back system favours the less consistent golfer. Russell "Gus The Good Guy" Wenzel was third with a solid 38 points. Others were David "Jack" Webster 35, Eddie "The Flying Dutchman" Van Keulen 33 & Dick Cleland 31. The Mars Bar was a no contest with Mark "Mouldy" Millward the recipient with a very sad 23 points.
Bob Taylor Holds Off Fast Finishing Dick Secomb
Four players went out in perfect conditions to play 9 holes of mulligans. Bob Taylor got away to a good start, playing well through 7 holes before slowing to a walk on the final 2 holes with just one point on each. Dick Secomb, on th other hand got a very modest start before coming home in a rush scoring 11 points over the last 4 holes. Bob finished with 20 points to Dick's 19. Eddie "The Flying Dutchman" Van Keulen & Dick Cleland tied for the Mars Bar with 15. The Dutchman's game was up & down while Dick played well through 5 holes before his putter went cold. Dick got the Mars Bar on a count back.
Thomo Regains Composure Between Showers
Four players managed a rain free round between heavy morning showers and a wet afternoon. Colourful local identity Philip "Thomo" Thomson recovered from his disappointment on Saturday to post a winning 37 stableford points. Bob Taylor was 2nd with 33 while David "Jack" Webster had a let down after his fine round on Saturday with 32. Chris "Critta" Waters took the Mars Bar with 30. The handicapper has given Critta an extra stroke.
Saturday Results: Jack Soars While Thomo Falters
David "Jack" Webster stole the limelight with a runaway win in Saturday's stroke competition. Jack scored an excellent score of net 66 (86 gross) to win by six strokes. On the other hand colourful local identity Philip "Thomo" Thomson, usually noted for his summer form collected the Mars Bar with a net 83. Scores in between were runner up Matt McCauley net 72, Bill McMahon nnet 75, Dick Cleland & Russell "Gus The Good Guy" Wenzel net 77, Michael "Tickers" Tickner net 78 & David"Robbie" Robinson net 80.
The handicapper acted quickly to take a stoke off Jack and gave one to Gus The Good Guy.
Is Thomo Just a Summer Golfer
At the end of Winter 2015, colourful local identity Philip "Thomo" Thomson was on a handicap of 15 marginally better than the average for Australian male golfers. During the Summer of 2015/2016 with hard fairways with plenty of run Thomo reduced his handicap to 10. By the end of Winter 2016 Thomo was back on 15. Now that Summer has finally arrived and the fairways have hardened up we see Thomo returning to the winners circle. He has already reduced his handicap to 14 & now is well on his way to further reducing it.
Tuesday saw the best weather for golf in a decade & yet only 4 players turned up. Monday night saw a meeting of the Burra Malt Whisky Tasting Group which could account for 1 or 2. Thomo won with a score of 40 stableford points which would have beaten much larger fields. Runner up was Andy Phillips four points back on 36. Brett Wallis made a rare appearance to score 30, while Eddie "The Flying Dutchman" Van Keulen took the Mars Bar with 26.
Players Struggle in High Winds
Ten players braved gale force winds to play today's stableford event, and the scores reflected the difficulty the conditions caused. Winner was David "jack" Webster who scored a creditable 36. Matt McCauley & Andy Phillips tied for 2nd just 1 back with 35. Russell "Gus The Good Guy" Wenzel on 34 & Chris "Critta" Waters 30, were the only others to score 30 or more. At the head of the rest was David "Robbie" Robinson on 28, followed by Eddie "The Flying Dutchman" Van Keulen 24 & Michael "Tickkers" Tickner 24. As visitor Klaus Heymann could not stay, Mark "Mouldy" Millward took the Mars Bar for the second week in a row with 23. The new handicapper has taken pity on Mouldy and increased his handicap to 10′
The Flying Dutchman Outmaneuvers His Rivals
Eddie "The Flying Dutchman" Van Keulen appeared to be becalmed in the first 3 holes of today's mulligans scoring only 2 points. On the 4th hole he picked up the breeze and began a recovery of Lazarean proportions. Despite his improvement the Dutchman maintained the demeanor of one disappointed in his standard of play. He scored 19 points in the last 6 holes for a score of 21. By the time his fellow competitors woke up to what was happening it was too late. Dick Cleland finished 2nd with 20, followed by Gordon "The Chook Man" Kakoschke with 17, Andrew Hall with 14 and Dick Secomb collected the Mars Bar with 12 points. Eddie topped the day of by collecting the 2 nearest the pins on offer.
Burra Golf Club Takes Delivery of New Greens Mower
The Burra Golf Club has taken delivery of what we believe to be the first brand new piece of equipment in its 117 year history.

The idea behind tree farming includes creating a sustainable resource that continues to produce forest products. Tree farming includes practicing land stewardship by focusing on reforestation, management, growth, nurturing and harvesting of trees, according to the American Tree Farm System. Just as important, tree farming helps conserve soil, air and water quality as well as wildlife and fish habitat.
People began using the phrase "tree farming" in the 1940s, according to the American Tree Farm System. The first tree farm appeared in 1941 in Washington State. California's tree farm program also began in 1941, and now includes almost 600 tree farms protecting 3.5 million acres across the state. Tree farms started appearing once people noticed that private forests were being cut down but no new trees were planted to replace them.
Tree farms may contain a wide variety of trees and not just the Christmas trees many people associate with tree farms. Instead, tree farms contain a variety of habitats meant to appeal to wildlife and birds as well as a number of stages of forest regeneration. Some tree farms contain seedlings, while others hold large, mature trees. Most tree farms contain a mix of new and older trees.
In addition to helping to sustain forests, tree farming provides valuable habitat for wildlife and birds. The trees provide important resources for nesting, shelter and food. Tree farming protects important watersheds that fish and other wildlife rely on. Mature trees ready for harvest provide valuable wood for construction and manufacturing. One of the main products made from the trees growing on tree farms includes paper, according to TAPPI, the Technical Association for the Worldwide Pulp, Paper and Converting Industry. After the trees get harvested for manufacturing into paper, more trees get planted to replace those removed. Some tree farmers enjoy collecting morels, or mushrooms, that grow at the bases of the trees. The trees provide a valuable resource when it comes to exchanging carbon dioxide for oxygen, helping to improve the environment and clean the air from pollution.
A variety of programs offer certification to tree farms. Most states offer various programs and information to help people organize and manage a tree farm. For instance, the Michigan Tree Farm organization focuses on helping tree farmers grow renewable forest resources while protecting environmental benefits. The American Tree Farm System organization also offers certification.
Development of a sustainable forest, or tree farm, requires careful planning. Each tree farm needs to look at its objectives and goals for the trees and the resources available on the land, and create a plan to manage those resources. Some groups, such as the American Tree Farm System, offer templates to help people create their management plans. Each state also offers a variety of resources to help tree farms become sustainable.

Another card made with this lovely stamp set.
I got my inspirations from a card I saw on Pinterest, that I thought was really lovely, with a clean and simple look, but really showed off the floral design. It was by a lady called Jules from her blog 'handcraftedbyjules.blogspot.com, and was for a DT card for STAMPlorations, so I give her full credit for the design of this card
I simply stamped a left over piece of card with a range of the roses and leaves from the Altenew Vintage Roses stamp set, in a range of colours and adhered it flat to the card base. I then cut a couple of top panels to fit either side of the panel, glued a thin strip of pink card down the inside edge of each, adhered them to some fun foam and onto the front of the card. I stamped another flower and leaves on to another piece of scrap card, fussy cut them out and mounted them with foam tape.
I ended up having to do the flower centre with 3 layers of foam tape, I only had a thin foam tape, and the leaves are on a single layer, so it sat lat over the recessed panel part. Then just a sentiment by the flower to finish it off.

Great scenic snow trains don't get much better than Switzerland's Glacier Express. One of the world's most scenic alpine rail journeys, the Glacier Express from glamorous St Moritz to incomparable Zermatt is a must do experience.
Even more so in their new Glacier Express Excellence Class which takes luxury scenic rail travel to another level.
It's a great start or finish to a Swiss snow trip, or an in between, and not just from Zermatt to St Moritz. Why not stop at other classic areas like Andermatt? Our view of Andermatt while crossing the highest point of the journey over the 2,033m Oberalp Pass sure made us want to come back and try it on our next Swiss ski trip, and that was just the largest of numerous ski areas you pass along the way.
We started from Zermatt, having checked our ski and boot bags in and got our SWISS boarding passes for the flight home from Zurich at the station the night before (it costs CHF 22 per bag, well worth it), so we travelled with just our carry on bags.
That meant kicking back and relaxing to enjoy the passing spectacle from the comfort of panoramic window seats. On the drive up to Täsch I hadn't had much chance to check out the views as the road demands attention, so winding down past waterfalls, old farmhouses, historic villages and of course glimpsing ever present towering peaks made life easy. Good coffee, a nice lunch, and a well earned beer in the afternoon helped.
The route takes you over the watershed between two of Europe's greatest river systems, the Rhône and Rhine, and past the headwaters of both.
A couple of stops, including half an hour at fascinating Disentis, the largest Romansch speaking town in Switzerland, give you time to stretch the legs and pick up some souvenirs.
It opened as a summer journey way back in 1930, and for winter since 1982, the famous Glacier Express panorama trains starting in 1993. You can do it in sections, and with planning use it as key to enjoy several resorts.
We didn't have time to go all the way to St Moritz, changing at Chur for a Zurich express that gave us a few hours to check out the old city and shops there, including the market in the station, before the short trip to the airport.
We'll give it an 11/10, don't miss it, clic for more info & bookings..

Crunchy Curried Chickpeas
- Yield: 6 servings
- 3 1/4cups cooked chickpeas (about two 15-ounce cans)
- 2tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2teaspoons sweet curry powder
- 1/2teaspoon dried thyme
- 1teaspoon fresh grated ginger
- Sea salt or garlic salt
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Rinse the chickpeas and drain completely. Lay them on a dishtowel and gently rub them to remove any remaining skins, making sure that they are totally dry. In a large bowl, stir together the olive oil, curry powder, thyme, and ginger. Add the chickpeas to the bowl and toss to coat. Spread the chickpeas on a parchment lined rimmed baking sheet.
- Bake the chickpeas, tossing them occasionally, until they are light brown and crisp, 40 o 45 minutes. As soon as you remove them from the oven, sprinkle with a teaspoon of salt. Taste and add more salt if you like. Let them cool completely (this will make them crunchier), then serve. These are best eaten the day they are made.

Yesterday, I found myself in the same old rut; perusing Facebook when Lo! and behold, my cousin Crystal posted a video saying "1 in 4 Americans unaware that earth circles sun". I immediately thought "NO! This can't be … I must watch this video (and hope it's not a virus.)" To find out, IT'S TRUE!! Don't believe me? Watch it here.
Needless to say, today, I find myself inspired. Maybe I'm going to far in to science with my science posts? Maybe, I need to take a step back so everyone is on the same page – and, just in case you get stopped on the street for a science pop quiz, you will know the answer! Plus, trivia night, anyone?
1. All of the planets orbit (revolve around) the sun. (Feel free to watch the video again). Lighter objects always orbit heavier objects. This is why satellites and the moon orbit earth. Do you remember anything about Sir Isaac Newton? It was Newton who realized that the planets must orbit the sun in much the same way an object falls to the earth after we drop it. Basically, the sun's gravity pulls on all of the planets, causing the planets to orbit it. It is also important to note that the bigger an object is, the larger it's gravitational pull. It goes without saying that all of you know that the sun is the largest object in our solar system. NASA has some amazing resources for this subject. I should also mention that it takes 1 year for the earth to orbit the sun.
2. There is a difference between a scientific hypothesis, theory and law. And those differences aren't what the general public seems to think they are. Let's start at the beginning. A hypothesis is an educated guess that is based on observations. You may remember making "If … then …" statements back in middle school. If not, they kind of sound like this: If I punch my little brother, then he will cry. This statement has to be testable. In our example, I could walk up to my little brother and give him a punch. Then, I will observe the aftermath. Does he cry? What's wonderful about a hypothesis is, you could be wrong, BUT you will get a scientific answer. In our case, my brother could cry, he could do nothing, or he might yell for mom. Our observations can change our hypothesis, to make it better, so we can get better answers. To hammer home this idea, I might be able to punch my brother 10 times with him crying each time. On the 11th try, he might punch me back! A theory summarizes a group of hypotheses made by lots of people. It's important to re-state that these hypotheses have undergone a lot of testing and re-testing by a lot of scientists. A theory is accepted as fact as long as there is no evidence that disputes it. Once this evidence arises, the theory is not thrown out, but changed to accommodate the new observation. Basically, a theory explains why and how something happens. For example, when we talk about gravity, we use Einstein's theory of general relativity. A law explains things, but does not describe them and it does this by generalizing a body of observations from many hypotheses that have been tested and re-tested by many scientists. A great way to distinguish a law from a theory is to see which one answers why something happens. For example, Sir Isaac Newton had a Law of Gravity. This law could predict that an object would fall, but it couldn't tell us why it fell. For a list of 10 laws and theories everyone should at least be acquainted with, check out this article here.
3. Evolution. I was debating whether or not I should include this … as I really don't enjoy talking about controversial things. However, everyone should at least know about it, whether you decide to believe in it or not. If you want to read more about all the intricacies of Evolution, check out Darwin's Origin of Species (it's even free for the Kindle App!) Many of you have heard of, and perhaps even said, the phrase "survival of the fittest!" – that's evolution you are talking about! There are many genetic changes that can be inherited, and these small changes, over the course of time, add up to larger changes. This is why every new generation of people differs slightly from the one before it. Many of these changes have negative or neutral effects, but sometimes, there are positive ones – hence, survival of the fittest. The rate of evolution varies a lot and it depends on the organism and environment. Recently, Bill Nye (the science guy!) and Ken Ham debated evolution and creationism (see the entire debate here). When it came down to evolution and creationism, both of them said the same thing, just using different words. Ken Ham said Noah saved 7000 couples on his little arc, and because of that, we have all the ones we have today. I found the below picture to really hammer home the math. The picture's link will take you to someone else's perspective on the debate.
4. The sky is blue because of scattering. It's not blue because it's a reflection of the ocean waters (like what I believed when I was in elementary school). Let's think about this. We have a sun, that we orbit around (see #1 above), and in order for that sun's rays to reach earth, the rays have to penetrate the earth's atmosphere. This atmosphere includes things like gas and particles that cause the sunlight to bounce (or scatter) off of them in many directions, and this sunlight is actually a lot of different colours. Have you ever seen a light flashing on a prism or maybe Pink Floyd's Dark side of the moon album cover? All of the colours in sunlight have different wavelengths, with blue being very short. So, blue light can make it's way through the "filter" (i.e. atmosphere) easier than colours with larger wavelengths, and, as a result, the blue light is scattered very widely. This is why the sky is blue when the sun is at the highest point in the sky, in relation to where you are standing. So, how do we explain the beauty of sunsets and sunrises? At these points, the sun is not above where you are standing, it's much farther away. The sunlight has to cross a great distance to reach you, and this distance allows the blue colour to, essentially, fade away, allowing us to see the reds and oranges and yellows of the light!
I think we will stick with these four things for now. If you are curious about anything, feel free to post your questions in the comments section below. Remember, we aren't debating anything here (there are other blogs and forums for that).
