In 1969, Katharine Hepburn starred as Coco Chanel in Coco a musical comedy on Broadway about Mlle. Chanel herself. The producer, Fred Brisson, had been trying to get permission from Coco Chanel to do a musical based upon her life and after years of persuasion, Chanel finally consented. At the time, Coco was the most expensive Broadway production to ever grace the NYC stages. The 250 costumes, based on the designs of Coco Chanel, were designed by Sir Cecil Beaton. (Info and Image above from Chanel and Her World: Friends, Fashion and Fame by Edmonde Charles – Roux, p. 372-73).
Having read many biographies on Gabrielle Chanel, a musical comedy doesn't really seem fitting for her life (a moody art film seems more like it). Coco didn't do to well with the critics but it sold our shows night after night. Well, now Coco is being reprived by London's Sadler's Wells Theater as part of a series called Lost Musicals 2011 – a European premier. If you are in the area this may be fun to check out. The show runs in May and June and tickets can be purchased online.

Trish is having a Launch Party!!
It's a different type of experience being in charge of every aspect of the writing, editing, marketing and distribution of one's book. So far the only thing I've not done myself is design the cover. I knew I had no talent in that arena, so I enlisted the talented Kimberly Killion at Hot Damn Designs, and I think she did a lovely job. I firmly believe covers are important because they're the face of your book, the first impression. I have no doubt that there are really good books out there that don't get read as many times as they should because they've had the misfortune of having bad covers, though I've been very fortunate with all of my covers to date (thank you, Harlequin and Penguin!). I also believe that the book beyond the cover has to live up to good packaging. I hope readers believe Living in Color does that.
Living in Color is a mother-daughter road trip story, one that leads to healing and some unexpected discoveries. Here's the blurb:
After the death of her father, Sabrina Bishop feels a sense of relief that he's gone. No longer will he be able to abuse her mother mentally or physically, and just maybe her mother might grow to see what he'd done to her was wrong. But with the death of Jim Bishop, Sabrina is now responsible for her mother's well being since Ruby can't read or write and has lived a sheltered life. But Ruby has a very small comfort zone in rural West Tennessee, and that means she can't come live with Sabrina in Atlanta. Besides, Sabrina's job as an award-winning news photographer keeps her traveling around the globe most of the time. As she tries to make suitable plans for her mother's future, Sabrina offers to take Ruby on a road trip to expose her to a world she's never seen. As they travel to sites such as Mount Rushmore, Yellowstone National Park and the Gulf Coast of Florida, the trip becomes a journey of unexpected healing and self-discovery not only for Ruby, but for Sabrina as well.
As someone who doesn't like to fly, I take a good amount of road trips. I actually enjoy driving long distances and being able to stop wherever I want whenever I want. So I thought I'd share my top five favorite road trip destinations I've been to.
1. Yellowstone National Park -- My sister worked at the park for a year, so I visited once while she was there and a couple more times since then. It's absolutely gorgeous, and I always want to spend more time there.
2. San Antonio and the Hill Country of Texas -- My good friend Mary lives in San Antonio, so I've driven there several times. Last month, we also took a trip up to Fredericksburg in the Hill Country so I could do some research for the trilogy I'm writing for Harlequin American. Some of my favorite stops on this trip are the missions along the Mission Trail in San Antonio -- the Alamo and four others (San Jose, Espada, San Juan and Concepcion).
3. Destin/Ft. Walton Beach, Florida (in the sunset photo) -- I love the Gulf Coast. It's so relaxing there. I love driving along the roads that follow the beach, listening to the waves.
4. Outer Banks, N.C. -- Home to Cape Hatteras and several other lighthouses, Cape Hatteras National Seashore (wonderful because it's undeveloped like so many stretches of beach), and Kitty Hawk, site of the Wright Brothers' famous flight.
5. Great Smoky Mountains National Park, TN and N.C. -- The roads that crisscross this park pass by waterfalls, beautiful mountain streams, lush green mountains, stunning wildflowers, historic structures of past mountain communities, and even the occasional black bear. It is one of the most richly bio-diverse places it the world and is thus designated an International Biosphere Reserve. And it has the benefit of only being about four hours from my house. :)
What I'd like to know from you all is:
a. Do you like road trips?
b. What are some of your favorite road trips and destinations?
c. Any fun (or horrible) road trip stories to share?
I'll pick a winner from today's comments to receive a road map of the United States and a $5 Starbucks gift card to get you started off right on your very own road trip.
If you'd like to read Living in Color (it's a great Mother's Day gift -- hint, hint), you can download it at:
Amazon.com for Kindle
Barnesandnoble.com for Nook
Smashwords.com for Sony e-reader, iPad and various other formats, including for your desktop computer
Okay, break out the freshly made cookies (I hope Joanie made them, and I'd like to request they be just like the ones she made for one of our Bandita get-togethers -- yum!), your favorite non-alcoholic beverage (we are driving, after all), and road map and hit the road!

Trish, In Living Color sounds like a beautiful story! Congrats on its release--am adding it to my TBB :) As for road trips, I know that I love the idea of road trips, but haven't been on many. I know my husband does not like the idea of road trips, so opportunities to actually travel this way may be somewhat limited ;) I've always wanted to see parts of the US this way, so maybe as the kids get older, I can convince some of them to lobby to road trip?
As for road trip memories, I do recall one that my family took when I was maybe 12? We drove up through Oregon into Washington--the forests were gorgeous, but it was the middle of summer, and since we had no AC, we had to periodically peel ourselves off the vinyl seats, which at one point my younger brother defaced with ball point pen in his boredom... :)

Congrats on your new release!
Congrats, Fedora, on the rooster!
I remember car trips to Washington DC with the entire family (including aunts, uncles, and cousins) when I was a kid. My dad had to rent a van to seat everyone. My younger brother scared my 5-year-old cousin, telling her that the statue of Thomas Jefferson was out to kill her. Ah, family trips...
I still enjoy driving up and down the Northern Californian coast but I don't do that much anymore due to gas prices.

Well done Fedora have fun with him
Congrats on the release and taking the plunge with self publishing I have added this book to my must get list.
I do so love road trips we have been on a few over the years up to Queensland and down to Victoria and accross to South Australia and I love the fact that you can stop whereever and whenever you want to enjoy the scenery or have a coffee. I do think we might need to plan another one soon it is a while since we have been on one.
Love the sound of the places you have visited.
Congrats again Trish
Have Fun

Congrats on the GR, Fedora.
Hi Trish,
Congrats on the release of your first women's fiction novel. My cousin used to live in Arizona and I flew there and she took me on a mini road trip to the Grand Canyon. It was beautiful. One of the best road trips was when we drove up to Traverse City and Mackinac Island in Michigan. I wish we could have afforded to stay at the Grand Hotel.

Congrats on your new books ... and the chocolate chip cookies!
I don't like to fly, either, but one must fly to get off the islands! We flew through 20 minutes of turblance between LA and Honolulu, so I was gripping my arm rest!
Should you overcome your dislike of flying, consider the island of Kauai, home of the Waimea Canyon. It is amazing!

When I was a kid the car was the only mode of travel. We would drive to Maryland from WV every year to visit family. At the time I wasn't a great traveler but I did eventually outgrow it.
Congrats on your release Trish. Gotta love the speed and ease of a Kindle download.

have a good day with him fedora
Your book sounds like a good read Trish. If you want to go anywhere in Aus they are all road trips LOL...I have one brother live 8 hours away and the other is 12 hours away... Helen and I had a road trip last weekend (3 hours) to go for lunch with some romance readers in Canberra

Yay! Two parties in a row! Congrats on Living In Color, Trish. It's a lovely cover.
I've been on many road trips in my life, the latest was moving from San Diego to NC four years ago. I'm not sure our kids found it as much fun as my husband and I. One day they will.
Actually, they enjoyed seeing some of the sights. Yosemite was a favorite---simply stunning!
One of our most memorable road trips was when we lived in Italy. We rented a huge van and went on an adventure with some friends of ours. Picture 4 adults and 6 kids on this trip. We drove from Naples to Milan to Lake Como to Venice and back to Naples. I said that if we survived the experience and we were still speaking to each other, we'd be friends for life. And we are!!
Joanie's chocolate chip cookies?! Yum, yum!!!!

Woohoo, Trish!! Congrats on the release. I can't wait to pick it up.
I enjoy road trips. This summer we're driving down to Florida for a a week. Thankfully, my oldest son drives so there is an extra driver. I'm curious to see how my youngest takes it. He tends to get bored easily.

Trish -
My husband and I went on a road trip last fall driving around Florida - to the Keys - to the Gulf coast and the Ocean side. I don't have a problem with flying so haven't explored all the backroads that you have - but when my kids were younger, I used to hand them a map and let them pick the roads to travel for a weekend excursion. They learned how to read a map and we discovered some otherwise "undiscovered" points in Ohio (grin).
Love the sound of this book. I have a friend who used to wait till she had the kids in a car to have serious discussions with them. She figured they couldn't escape and had to participate in the discussion or at least listen. Anxious to hear how the self-publishing venture works for you.

- Susan Sey said...
Hey, Trish, congrats on the new release! It sounds wonderful. I'd love to take a road trip with just my mom some day, see all the sights we didn't see when we were kids because oh dear lord who wants to spend three weeks in a van with four girls trying to kill each other & a flatulent dog? It was bad enough driving the four hours up to our cottage.
I would truly love to see the scenery out west--Yellowstone, Glacier, hit Theodore Roosevelt Natl Park along the way...
I'll pick up Living in Color for inspiration! I love a good road book!
- April 14, 2011 at 9:28 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Thanks, Fedora. And congrats on nabbing the rooster. Hey, maybe you can convince him to go on a road trip -- as long as you stop at a few hen houses along the way. :)
Oh, I remember no air conditioning in vehicles and the seats being so hot. We'd put bath towels on them so we didn't scorch our legs. But your road trip sounds beautiful. Unfortunately, the only time I was in Oregon, I was on the train and it was night so I didn't get to see much of it.
- April 14, 2011 at 10:01 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Sheree, yeah, gas prices are making leisurely road trips more expensive. Boo! I am lucky to have a car that gets good gas mileage, but someday I hope to buy a hybrid or maybe the Nissan Leaf.
LOL on your brother's tale about the Jefferson Memorial. That sounds like something a little boy would do.
I had to rent a van last year when my mom, my sister and my two nieces and I went to Florida. That was a lot of estrogen in one vehicle!

Helen, I bet road trips in Australia are awesome. I read Bill Bryson's "In a Sunburned Country" and it made me want to visit Australia even more. Now if I could just get there in a blink of an eye and not have to do the whole plane business.
- April 14, 2011 at 10:06 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Jane, you mentioned two places I want to visit but haven't yet. Hubby is talking about us taking a big trip out west to visit a lot of the national parks -- the Grand Canyon, Canyonlands, Arches, etc. Would love that.
And I've been wanting to visit Mackinac Island for years. It looks gorgeous.
- April 14, 2011 at 10:07 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Kim, every time I watch Hawaii 5-0, I want to go to Hawaii more. Maybe I can overcome this fear at some point because I want to visit so many places overseas -- Hawaii, Scotland, England, Ireland, Australia, China, Norway, Sweden. So many beautiful and interesting places to see.
- April 14, 2011 at 10:09 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Thanks, Dianna. I think one of the reasons we never took big car trips when I was a kid was the fact that almost our entire family lived in a two-county area of Western Kentucky. You could get to anyone's house in 30 minutes max. Maybe that's why I like road trips now.
- April 14, 2011 at 10:10 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Barb, that's the impression I got -- that it's a long way to everywhere in Australia! :) It can be that way here too, especially when you're driving across the Great Plains or states like Wyoming and Montana where you have to plan your fuel and potty breaks very carefully. :)
- April 14, 2011 at 10:12 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Gannon, I want to visit Yosemite so much. In case you haven't noticed, I'm quite the National Park fan.
I didn't realize you'd lived in San Diego. I was out there a couple years back for an RWA Board meeting and really liked it. I stayed afterward and my sister and her family flew down from Washington state. We did the famous zoo, Cabrillo National Monument and Torrey Pines park. Got to stay on the bay and watch all the Navy ships come and go during the board meeting but then moved to a hotel in Del Mar overlooking the ocean. Lovely trip.
And your Italy trip sounds amazing, if perhaps a big loud with all those people. :)

Christie, maybe invest in some handheld video games. :)
I love Florida, so I hope you all have a great time on your trip.
- April 14, 2011 at 10:20 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Donna, your Florida excursion sounds great. I haven't been down to the southern part of the state yet. May have to do that next time.
And letting your kids pick the roads sounds cool. I love maps. We have a map store here, and I love looking through all those maps. (Yes, I'm weird.) But it's amazing how since GPS units have started becoming popular that lots of people can't read maps anymore.
- April 14, 2011 at 10:22 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Susan, ugh on the flatulent dog, but that did make me laugh. :)
Another lovely place to put on your future western trip is the Badlands. I've been to the parts in both South and North Dakota (including the Theodore Roosevelt National Park you've mentioned). I would never be able to handle the winters, but North Dakota was surprisingly beautiful. I drove across it a few years ago. It's filled with lakes and ponds and waterfowl before you get to the Badlands, and then there's all that red rock. Just lovely.

Congatulations on the release. It sounds beautiful. I enjoy road trips and they are memorable. One that was special was through the Rockies.The beauty, scenic vistas and places were incredible.

Hi Trish! The book sounds amazing, def something I'll read.
I love road trips, think I've mentioned that before here in the lair.
My favorite was just a few years ago. Hubby & I packed our two little girls in the car and drove down the coast of CA stopping at all the beach towns. Pismo was a huge favorite, great beach, and great downtown area to stroll. Of course we had to try all the different restaurant/bars that overlooked the ocean. We've got a great pic of us at Duke's (Malibu) with our Tropical Itch's in hand.

- Hellie Sinclair said...
Love the cover--and totally didn't realize it was a self-published book! :) Very cool!
As for the questions:
Yes, I love road trips, though there are some people who are better to travel with than others. I love to travel with my friends Pam, Tammy, Jackie, and Holly--though not at the same time. NEVER at the same time. Really I travel better with only one other person. I imagine I'd hate road trips if I had a husband, 2 kids, and a dog to contend with.
Destinations? We roadtripped from Columbia, MO to Colorado Springs, CO. And I've roadtripped to Arkansas and back...and Chicago and back. I think Boston is great, but it wasn't a roadtrip--that was a FLIGHT and then some roadtripping in a rental--but I highly recommend it because we got to see Concord and Lexington as well as Boston. And I've been to New York (which is too busy for me in general), but I think the sense of adventure was still alive and well in us. We had our maps, we figured out where stuff was, and we took the subway at some points as well as walking. We got lost occasionally, but never felt we couldn't get to where we were going--that's a road trip to me. And I laughed with my best friend a lot. (So while I still don't care for New York, I do maintain it was a good road trip.)
Bad times? Undoubtedly--but I try to forget about them and focus on the good stuff. Nothing Chevy Chase worthy at any rate: getting lost in east St. Louis, losing half your car, et al.

Your release is so appealing. Road Trips are the way to travel. So much to see, and if you have time unforgettable. Niagara Falls, Thousand Islands and Eastern On. when I was young.

Hi, Traveler. The Rockies are gorgeous, aren't they? Very awe-inspiring.
- April 14, 2011 at 10:48 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
MsHellion, Boston is another place I've not been that I'd like to go. In fact, I'd love to do a great big road trip through New England.
New York isn't my favorite either. I mean, I like to go in for a day or two, see a show, etc., then leave. I feel a bit claustrophobic there. My favorite part is actually out on Liberty and Ellis islands.
- April 14, 2011 at 10:52 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
petite, ah, Niagara Falls, yet another place I haven't been. You all are tossing out so many great destinations for me to add to my list. You mentioned Ontario, and that made me think I'd love to do a trip from coast to coast in Canada.

Yay Fedora !! He is visiting you today!
And DOUBLE YAY, TRISH !!!
I know this book is going to be fabulous!
I do like road trips, but my only recent ones have been to RWA. We drove to both DC and Orlando and had a great time.
Road trips to visit my Dad's family in Pennsylvania when we were kids were always an experience. Sometimes good. Sometimes bad! LOL
One of my favorite road trips was to New Orleans one weekend with a couple of my former students. We decided late one Friday night that we wanted to go to New Orleans to see the Aquarium of the Americas, which had just opened. We drove all night, checked into a hotel on Charles Street, slept for a few hours and spent the rest of the weekend visiting the aquarium and the zoo and Bourbon Street (the other zoo! LOL) We spent all day at the zoo and they were getting ready to close the night animals house. We were standing in front of the pangolin exhibit and I was droning on about how neat they were, how endangered and how lucky we were to see one when the keeper strolled by and said "Do you want to meet him?" She went through to the back and opened his cage and in a few minutes down the hall waddles a real live pangolin! He sniffed our shoes, looked up at us and it was just one of those once in a lifetime moments. It has been years, but anytime I see those students they always remind me of that trip and meeting the pangolin.

Congrats on the release! My most memorable road trip was when my parents took us to the Maine seacoast and stopping at McDonald's and my mother digging through the trash because she threw away the change on her tray - while all four of us girls and my father walked out of the restraunt and hid in the car pretending we had no idea who that lady was.

Congratulations on your latest release, Trish! I can't wait to read it - sounds fabulous :-)
I love road trips. When I was a kid we made two long trips - one down to Orlando and one to Nashville. Not sure I loved spending so much time with my sisters in the backseat of the station wagon but I love taking road trips with my own kids *g*

Minna, I like train trips too and I take those sometimes on the longer excursions or when I'm going into NYC. No way I'm driving there.
- April 14, 2011 at 11:45 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Louisa, what a fun trip to New Orleans. And your post made me think about how cool it is to just decide on a whim to take a road trip. Just toss some things in a bag and hit the road. I think I have a bit of wanderlust in me. There's a part of me that would like to try living in a nice RV for awhile and just traveling around and staying in various campgrounds, exploring the country at leisure and meeting all the other interesting RVers.
I had to look up what a pangolin is. Had no idea. But they're cute.

In Living Color sounds wonderful, Trish. Congratulations on the release and on venturing into new territory.
You mentioned one of my favorite drives--through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Just incredible! The best road trip I've ever taken was driving with a friend from Atlanta to Ashville and on to Williamsburg and then back down the coast from Norfolk to Charleston to Savannah. We had mountains and shore in one trip and decided each night where we'd stop the next day. I loved every moment of that trip.
- April 14, 2011 at 11:49 AM

Dtchycat, LOL on the parental unit embarrassment moment. Had a few of those myself throughout the years. :)
But I bet the trip through Maine was gorgeous.

Congratulations, Trish! Your book sounds lovely.
I've never been too excited about road trips, but my husband looooves them. He hates airplanes and is much happier when he can see the landscape zipping by. SO I've learned to appreciate them.
My favorite trip was one we took to Northern Michigan in the summertime, visiting Mackinaw Island and Petoskey, stopping at roadside stands to buy fresh cherries, watching the waves roll up to the shore.
Thanks for reminding me!
- April 14, 2011 at 11:50 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Thanks, Beth. Your comment reminded me of a story my husband tells about his family's drive-by tour of the West. One summer while he was in high school, he, his parents and his brother loaded up the car and headed west. They had 2-3 weeks, I think, so they didn't spend much time at any one place. I think that trip might have done him in on long car trips. Imagine four tall people (his mom was 5'10", and he and his brother and dad are all over 6 feet) crammed in a car for 3 weeks.

- Trish Milburn said...
Janga, that sounds like a wonderful trip. I love Williamsburg and want to go back. One of my favorite eras of history is American Colonial, so I totally dig Colonial Williamsburg. And Virginia is so incredibly rich in early American history. I love it.
Having the mountains on one side and the beach on the other is one of the reasons I like North Carolina so much. Asheville is a gorgeous area, and I want to explore the town more soon.
- April 14, 2011 at 11:54 AM
- Trish Milburn said...
Saralee, that sounds like a lovely summer trip. One other drive that I didn't include but could have easily was through Door County, Wisconsin. If you look at a map of Wisconsin, it's the thumb that juts out into the lake. It's beautiful and full of cute little lakeside villages.

Launch Par-Tay! Cabana boys! Bust out the industrial sized blenders!
I love driving around once I get to a place, but I really don't have a lot of patience for a looong trip to get there. Last really long road trip I took was driving from NorCal to my sister's house in Tulsa. BOOORING! I told her next time, pick me up at the airport! :-P
Of course some places you MUST drive, like Yosemite, or Arches, or Canyonlands. They really are in the middle of nowhere, but so worth the drive.
I LOVE driving in Florida. It's nice and flat and you can get to places relatively quickly (NOT like Cal or Texas). Plus there's lots of lovely water and so many interesting sights. Last time we were there we drove along "alligator alley" and stopped several times to view the gators. LOVED IT!
Pass those chocolate chip cookies and milk, please. The alcohol laced beverages need to wait for a couple of hours. ;-)

Congrats on the new release, Trish. LIVING IN COLOR sounds like a tender, sweet story. I'm so glad you made it available in a variety of platforms!

Gotta love a road book! Congrats! In Living Color sounds lovely. A new read for my Nook!
The only time I don't enjoy a road trip is when it has to be quick and as-few-as-possible stops. I'd much rather enjoy the journey--but I'm alone in my family!

Trish!!! I'm SO excited about in Living Color! WOOT!!!
I adore road trips, I love the Hatteras Seashore, and the Great Smokies, and Pisgah National Forest. Loved our road trip last fall to Chattanooga and the Aquarium there. LOVE road trips. We've got one in the planning stages for visiting Minor League ballparks at spring break sometime in the next couple of years. Grins.
Not too many horror stories, but do remember riding in the back window ledge - horrorifying for me now as a mom - on road trips. Grins.

Jeanne, I bet your crew will love the baseball parks road trip.
Isn't Chattanooga pretty? Several years ago they totally revitalized the downtown. It used to be dirty and industrial, but now it's full of restaurants, shops, museums, the aquarium and IMAX theater. Very pedestrian friendly.
And you simply must get to Yellowstone. It's wonderful.

Congratulation, Trish! I'm really interested to follow your journey--not only the road trip in LIVING IN COLOR but your foray into e-publishing. The book sounds wonderful. Ever slow on the uptake, I'm going to start shopping for an e-reader. Back at'cha tomorrow!

Thanks, Kathleen.
Everyone, be sure to come by tomorrow when I'll be hosting Kathleen, who has long been one of my favorite authors. She'll be here to talk about her newest release. (Psst, there's a hot cowboy on the cover.) :)

Hey, Fedora, looks like the chook is going on a road trip!
Trish, sorry I'm late to the party. I've got some cabana boys to catch up on... Um...cabana boys COCKTAILS, that is! You girls have such naughty minds.
Congratulations on the release of LIVING IN COLOR. It sounds like a moving, emotional story - wonderful stuff. And didn't Kimberly did a beautiful job of your cover? It's so atmospheric. I hope you sell a million!
I love road trips. I was lucky enough in 1985 to spend six months touring through Europe in a new Citroen - the greatest road trip EVAH!
A couple of my fave road trips are:
The Great Ocean Road in Australia (unforgettable!).
The Road to the Isles in Scotland (the most beautiful part of the world - yeah, I know, I'm biased!).
The Grande Corniche on the French Riviera. Hey, thank Grace Kelly and Cary Grant in To Catch a Thief!
That's probably enough to be going on with!

Fedora, congrats on the bird!
Trish, congrats and good luck with your new book. I agree with you on the importance of a cover, and this one is great.
I wrote you a long comment, which Blogger ate when it told me it could not log me in (no reason given), except that when I went to the homepage to log in, I found that it DID log me in--just lied and ate my comment.
Anyway, we love road trips. I count our trips to the UK because even though we take a plane to get there, we then drive everywhere except London. We also love the NC Outer Banks. We drove to New England once, and around it, and had a wonderful time.
I have fabulous memories of building sand castles with the boy (or watching him build them) at Nags Head, watching him fly a kite at the Wright Brothers monument.
The dh and I have walked the walls of the Tower of London, fought a headwind as we crossed a pasture to reach Hadrian's Wall, and the three of us have sat at breakfast in Middleham, North Yorkshire, and watched the racehorses come back from their morning gallop across the dales.
Most of those trips, I recorded on Kodacolor Gold film with an Olympus OMG and a 35-70mm lens. My digital point and shoot with WhateverX zoom doesn't get nearly as close, and it doesn't stop motion, and it has shutter lag. But Kodacolor Gold is a thing of the past, and I have to admit the digital pictures are handy.
Congrats again on your new release!
But still . . .

Anna, your road trips all sound fantastic! I love the sound of Great Ocean Road. We have the Great River Road that runs through Tennessee and several other states along the Mississippi River.
And I hope I sell a million too! So dos my number cruncher hubby. :)

Thanks, Nancy. We stayed in Nag's Head when we went to the Outer Banks. That's been years ago now, so I'd love to go back. I also want to go up in some of the lighthouses. I got sick while we were there (allergic to something, back in the days before I was on allergy meds all the time) and didn't feel like the climbs when we were there.
Your England adventures sound wonderful.

Trish, it's very wild country south of Melbourne at the bottom of south-east Australia, best done in a two-day trip although you can do a long day trip and see the most famous bits like the Twelve Apostles. The cliffs are really rugged, the seas are really wild and they've carved amazing shapes from the rocks. There's also a lot of history as it's always been a big shipwreck coat. One of the famous wreckes was the Loch Ard in the mid-19th century. Everyone was lost and they named the place the ship went down Loch Ard Gorge. When you're there, you can see why the death toll was so tragic. Very haunting place! In between the wild bits, are really pretty little coastal towns and national parks full of magnificent big trees. It really is breathtaking.

- Trish Milburn said...
Anna, it sounds lovely. And your tales of the shipwrecks reminds me that the area off the Outer Banks, particularly off of Cape Hatteras, is called the Graveyard of the Atlantic because of all the shipwrecks there.

- Nancy said...
Oops. The "but still" was supposed to be photography paragraph.
We had great adventures, but we won't repeat them for a while. We're about to be paying college tuition.
I forgot that when I was growing up, we drove to Florida every year to see my dad's brother and his family. We had a VW bus, and my parents turned the center seat around, put the ice chest in between the two rear seats to serve as a table, bought us a board game we opened as we pulled out of town, and we were off.

Nancy, love the image of the trip to Florida in the VW bus!

Trish, I'm so excited about this book! It sounds like my very favorite kind of story. I love mother/daughter books AND road trips. Combine them in one book and I am THERE!
I'm with you on loving the Outer Banks (not Nags Head or Kitty Hawk, but way down at Avon and Buxton) and the Great Smoky Mtns National Park. The best trips of my childhood were to the Smokies and to the sugar-white beaches of Panama City Beach, FL. The Gulf Coast is just magnificent - well, other than what BP and developers have done to it!
My husband and I are jonesing to get out to Glacier National Park before the glaciers are gone - they are disappearing at an ASTONISHING rate. I'd also love to get to the sequoyahs and tool around the Pacific northwest. So much to see, so little time!
I may have to pick up Susan and do that sans kids. Maybe sans husbands, too. Girl trip! :)

Worst road trip ever: I was six months pregnant and heading to Destin, FL from Chapel Hill, NC with my husband and 6-1/2 year old son in a rather old Ford Escort. It was packed to the gills with Christmas gifts, since we were on our way to spend Christmas with my father, stepmonster (and extended family), three of my four siblings and their spouses/kids/significant others/hangers-on.
The Escort made it almost to Athens, GA. Middle of the night, I'm bussing down the Interstate at about 70 mph in the fast lane when the engine shuts off. I manage to somehow get in the slow lane and coast to the breakdown lane without incident. We start debating whether my husband should hike back to the last exit or take his chances up ahead. He went up ahead. Apparently, some young dudes picked him up and took him to the next exit, which was about 5 miles away. He got a tow truck to come fetch us and the car to Athens.
Fortunately, my sister Holli lived outside Atlanta at the time and had not yet left for Destin. She came flying to Athens and we loaded all the Christmas crap into her sedan. She drove us to her apartment and we spent the night there. When the car was finally fixed late the next day, she took us (and our crap) back to Athens where we reloaded the Escort and proceeded on to Destin.
All was well and it ended well, but pregnant Caren was quite stressed out the entire time!

Caren, I too like the less developed areas of the Outer Banks too, those little seaside communities that are in the national seashore stretch.
I've been by Glacier on the train but not actually visited the park. My sister and I both want to visit there and drive the Going to the Sun Road.
- April 14, 2011 at 10:12 PM
- Caren Crane said...
Oh, and then there was the time my sister Susie and I were trapped in Nova Scotia when 9/11 happened. That was a LONG road trip, driving from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada to Charlotte, NC in the USA!
- April 14, 2011 at 10:15 PM
- Trish Milburn said...
Caren, I can imagine that 9/11 road trip was more scary and uncertain than enjoyable. Hard to believe so many years have passed since then.

Pesticides are like poison on your plate.
We've known for a long time that pesticides not only kill pests but they also poison our food.
Pesticides have been linked to cancer and fertility problems as well as other frightening long-term health effects.
And China uses a lot of pesticides.
Last month, Greenpeace China sent 45 samples of fruits and vegetables to an independent laboratory to find out how serious the problem was.
The results are very scary.
A poisonous cocktail
Only five samples out of our total of 45 had no pesticides.
We found 50 different kinds of pesticides on the rest.
Many of the samples had two or more traces of pesticide residues, some up to 10!
The problem of multi-pesticide use is very serious. Many farmers have no idea what that cocktail of poisons does to the environment, themselves or to us.
Thirty-four samples had traces of at least three different pesticides; of those 25 had five different kinds; and we even found five samples contaminated with more than 10 different chemicals. These five samples are all from supermarkets.
While individually the pesticides are pretty toxic, no one knows the full effect if they're found mixed together. Some research seems to indicate that the effect could be even more serious.
This kind of poisoning can't be totally washed off under the tap.
China pesticides from Greenpeace China on Vimeo.
How did we do this research?
In December last year and February this year we bought commonly-eaten fruit and vegetables from wet markets and four supermarkets - Wal-Mart, Vanguard, Lotus and Nonggongshang -- in Guangzhou, Shanghai and Beijing.
We tested foods like tangerines, strawberries, tomatoes, beans, cabbages and spinach.
Pesticides residues were found across all samples and from all areas showing the problem is nationwide.
Shame on the big name supermarkets
What is even more shocking is that the fruits and vegetables from big name supermarkets like Lotus, Vanguard and Wal-Mart are even more polluted than those collected from the wet markets.
These big chains have a responsibility to their customers to offer clean and safe food.
Those vegetables with illegal pesticide traces and those with 10 different pesticides were all from supermarkets and not wet markets.
Highly toxic
To give a sense of how poisonous these chemicals are we checked the pesticides that turned up positive with international lists of toxic chemicals.
•The Pesticide Action Network UK lists more than 160 pesticides that have been linked to cancer.
We found 21 of them on 40 samples in our research.
And 33 of those had more than one of these chemicals and with eight having five of them!
•The European Union lists 91 pesticides as potential disruptors of the hormone system. This system is vital for health. These chemicals may affect fertility and may impact the development of babies.
Some 38 of our samples contained traces of these kinds of pesticides.
•The World Health Organisation has a list of highly hazardous pesticides.
We found five of those on nine samples in our shopping, including two of which are banned by the Chinese government.
Traces of banned carbofuran were found on cow peas and cucumber.
Methamidophos, also banned, and classified as 'highly hazardous' by the WHO, was also found on cow peas and on capsella (green leafy vegetable).
So what can we do?
It's obvious that using so many pesticides has to stop.
We have always argued that eco-agriculture, or organic farming, is the only way to ensure that chemicals don't contaminate our food.
But organic fruits and vegetables are expensive.
We are urging supermarkets to step up checks of their produce to make sure that the food they stock isn't contaminated by pesticides. They owe it to their customers to only stock safe food.
We are also urging supermarkets to put pressure on their suppliers to use less pesticides and pursue organic farming methods.
As organic farming becomes more widespread the cost of organic food will fall.
And we are urging Chinese consumers to put pressure on their supermarkets to make sure they stop stocking fruits and vegetables soaked in dangerous chemicals.
If you live in Beijing you may want to check our Organic Food Guide.

We fund our research and campaigns with money from people like you. We don't accept money from governments or corporations for fear of compromising our independence. Please support our fight for a clean and safe world.

(Zinnia elegans) Annual. Glorious 4-5 inch double blooms! These flowers are stunning in the garden and one of the best choices for attracting pollinators. Excellent choice for butterfly gardens.
These zinnias love the heat and will bloom all summer in shades of orange, yellow, cherry red, pink, scarlet, purple, and white.
Long-lasting as cut flowers.
|Germination Temperature
|Planting Depth
|Days to Germination
|Plant Spacing
|Row Spacing
|3 seeds every 12"
Planting Instructions:
Zinnias are easy-to-grow flowers that add a bright touch to any garden and wow you with their beauty. Start zinnias before frost indoors or direct sow after frost in a prepared garden bed or container. When planting outside, choose a sunny location. Space the seeds 1 to 2 inches apart and cover with 1/2 inch of soil. Cover seeds lightly as zinnia requires light to germinate. Water the seeds generously.
Zinnias don't like to be transplanted, but can be started indoors 4-5 weeks before the last average frost. If starting indoors, plant one seed in each peat pot or soil block in seed-starting mix and place the pots next to a window where they will receive at least 6 hours of sunlight a day. Transplant zinnias to a sunny location when they are approximately 3 inches high. Wait until all danger of frost has passed. Keep the soil evenly moist during germination. A watering can is recommended outdoors to gently water the seeds without disrupting the germination process. If necessary, thin the plants to leave 2 to 3 inches of space between them.
Additional Tips:
Pinch the plants back when they reach 18 inches tall. This encourages branching, which produces additional blooms. However, for the largest single bloom, do not pinch the plant back.
Enjoy fabulous giant blooms all summer long. Cut some to bring inside; they make long-lasting cutting flowers.
Deadhead the plants as the blooms fade to extend the bloom period.

Experts say weather patterns don't signal a repeat of a tough 2012, but warn that "surprises are normal" with forecasting.
The agriculture industry has tended to focus primarily on the Midwest during last year's record-shattering drought, but this region wasn't the only one adversely affected by the weather. The Cotton Belt dealt with its own set of problems in 2012, including pervasive hailstorms in the Southwest, Hurricane Isaac damage in the Mid-South and drought conditions scattered across most of the region.
"We were in severe, extreme or exceptional drought in many cotton production regions," says Gaylon Morgan, associate professor and cotton specialist for Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service.
Morgan gave a region-by-region recap of cotton production in 2012 at the Beltwide Cotton Conferences, held this week in San Antonio, Texas. Morgan's colleague, Texas state climatologist John Nielsen-Gammon, took a look forward to see what weather may be in store for the Cotton Belt in 2013.
"We can only forecast the weather for a week or so before randomness takes over," Nielsen-Gammon laments. "We can tell which way the odds are being tilted, but it it's really hard to be anything close to what we could call precise."
However, he adds that weather prediction has an ace up its sleeve — El Niño and La Niña oceanic patterns. These events can be predicted several months in advance.
It may seem counterintuitive, but sea surface temperatures thousands of miles away in both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans actually have a tremendous impact on U.S. weather patterns, he says.
"We're in just the right latitude to be strongly affected by [El Niño and La Niña]," he says.
Both cotton and thunderstorms need some of the same basic ingredients to grow and thrive, Nielsen-Gammon says — namely heat and water. The primary difference, he explains, is that cotton stays in one place, while thunderstorms are all across the globe based on various sea surface temperature and atmospheric conditions. Unfortunately, current conditions in both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans have been causing problems for cotton producers, Nielsen-Gammon says.
"Both oceans are effectively working against us right now," he says.
Predictions this fall of a weak El Niño pattern have since degraded into neutral conditions, which Nielsen-Gammon expects to continue through the beginning of summer. That equates to a tendency for slightly higher temperatures and slightly lower rainfall across the Cotton Belt this winter and spring. And as long as North Atlantic sea surface temperatures remain relatively warm, there will be a tendency for drier summers in the south-central and southeastern U.S.
Nielsen-Gammon likes the word "tendency" because he says cotton producers should ultimately prepare for any reasonable weather scenario. Weather prediction by its very nature is a notoriously fickle science.
"Surprises are natural," he says. "The weather has a mind of its own."

1990 – 1991 was a milestone for ICC Belgium. At that time ICC Belgium vzw was initiated, thanks to Ann Buelens-Peremans, and also became registered as a non-profit organization. 20 years later, many things have happened: sad moments, Ann passing a way on May 8th, 1993, and beautiful moments, with 20 years of positive growth that ICC Belgium has made.
Because 20 years is a nice round figure and also a long period of time, we absolutely had to celebrate this. Thanks to our sponsors and donors our organization is able to exist. And because of that we had to celebrate this with those who are so important to us, our sponsors and donors.
On Sunday, March 27th, the time arrived for this important celebration. The reception room of the Adventist church in Mechelen was transformed very beautifully with balloons and ICC logo's pinned to the ceiling. A buffet table was prepared and the food and little snacks were all very nice to the taste of everyone present. This, combined with a nice drink, made this feast complete.
For this occasion, Mr. Ali Salmi, Secretary of Development and Relief Aid for the city of Mechelen was also invited. At 2.00 pm the guests were welcomed and around 2.30 pm everyone was invited to the church hall upstairs for the official presentation.
First of all, Ronny gave a Power Point presentation about the 20 years of ICC in Belgium. Afterwards, Ali Salmi gave his speech. He congratulated ICC Belgium with their 20 year anniversary and he also praised ICC for its involvement within the Council of Development & Relief Aid (GRO..M) since 2003. He also praised ICC for their valued work for abandoned and orphaned children around the world. Since 2003 ICC Belgium has received a yearly grant from the city of Mechelen. The secretary finished by wishing ICC Belgium another 20 years!
During the official ceremony, Lambro Triantos, director of the European office in the Netherlands, had a surprise for the ICC Belgium team. He gave a beautiful jubilee plaque, presented by Rick Fleck, president of ICC International. The European office (IKN) also presented to Ronny a beautiful picture from a well-known artist in the Netherlands, Ron Offerman.
A special thank you for our sponsors and donors for their presence. A word of thanks also to all the volunteers of ICC Belgium for their enormous efforts in all they do for ICC and to my family and a few very dear friends who are always willing to lend a hand or two.
Ronny Van Dessel
President ICC Belgium vzw

Keith Wright scored 15 points and came down with 13 rebounds (Gil Talbot).
Boston Herald: Crimson Kings of Cambridge Courts
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Keith Wright earned his fifth double-double of the season, netting 15 points and grabbing 13 rebounds, as the Harvard men's basketball team improved to 7-0 at home with an 84-58 victory over MIT Friday afternoon at Lavietes Pavilion.
With the victory, the Crimson moves to 9-3 overall, as Harvard extends its home winning streak against non-conference opponents to a program-record 15 straight contests. With the loss, MIT slips to 9-2. Laurent Rivard bucketed 17 points to lead all Crimson scorers. Kyle Casey tallied 15, and had four dunks, while Oliver McNally and Christian Webster added 12 as five players reached double figures. Will Tashman paced the Engineers with 19 points.
The Crimson jumped out to a big lead early, outscoring the Engineers, 7-0, in the opening two minutes, as McNally buried a three and then hit a layup on a fast break. Harvard continued to attack the basket, as Wright followed with a conventional three-point play after grabbing an offensive board and going up with a layup before being fouled. The Crimson, though, got into foul trouble midway through the first stanza, allowing MIT to take an 11-10 lead with 13 minutes to go in the opening frame. The Crimson regained the lead on another layup in transition by McNally and then Laurent Rivard buried two free throws to put Harvard up three, 14-11.
Harvard upped its lead to 23-13 when McNally found Wright wide open under the basket for a layup. The Crimson maintained a 10-point lead for the majority of the remainder of the half, going up by 13 when Jeff Georgatos grabbed an offensive board off a missed three and tipped the ball into the basket with 5:10 remaining. Harvard led by as many as 19 in the frame, and headed into the locker room with a 44-26 advantage.
Wright finished the first half with a double-double, scoring 13 and pulling down 11 boards in the opening stanza. The Crimson struggled from long distance in the frame, going 1-of-8, but made 15-of-16 free throws (.938), led by Rivard who converted all five of his attempts.
In the second, Wright and Christian Webster made layups on Harvard's first two possessions, as the Crimson opened up a 20-point lead, 48-28. After McNally drained a three from the left corner, Harvard continued to pad its lead, going up by 27, 56-29, with 17:08 to play. A three-pointer from the left point by Rivard made it a 65-35 game in favor of the Crimson with 13:53 remaining. With less than eight minutes to go, Christian Webster buried a running jumper, giving Harvard a 34-point edge, 78-44.
For the game, the Crimson shot 53.6 percent from the field and 95 percent from the free throw line, making 19-of-20 shots from the charity stripe.
Harvard is back in action Wednesday, Jan. 5, as the Crimson will visit Boston College for a 7 p.m. tilt. The Crimson has defeated the Eagles in each of the last two seasons.

Greenpeace joined scores of campaigners from across the world at a protest in the conference centre, outside the plenary room of the International Convention Center in Durban where COP 17 is taking place. Kumi Naidoo executive director of Greenpeace, along with nine other Greenpeace activists, had his UN accreditation badge removed, meaning he could not re-enter the site during the remainder of the UN climate conference. Sunday's agreement marks the first time that major developing countries, like China and India, have been willing to talk about legally binding targets for their own economies.

Kumi Naidoo, the Executive Director of Greenpeace International spoke to hundreds of activists who occupied the International Convention Center in Durban where COP 17 is taking place. An agreement finalized at U.N. climate talks in Durban means that China still has almost a decade before it will significantly slow its rate of greenhouse pollution.

text: danwat1234 3 Report post Posted April 10, 2011 Hey guys, Curious how many Terabytes you have written to your SSD! I have an Intel G2 80GB. So far I am at 3.78TB according to the "Host Writes" S.M.A.R.T. attribute available for viewing with the Intel SSD Toolbox. I think most of it is because I was running my bittorrent client, which has a memory leak, and I left it running even though it used up all my free RAM and proceeded to use 9GB of my pagefile! SSD access was intense and this is probably was caused the large value, but I don't care! My system was nice and responsive despite having no free RAM. I kept it this way for days just because I wanted to see how far I could go.. I was running out of free space on the SSD for expanding the page file size! Drive is still 100% reliable, 3 reallocated sectors. How much have you written to your drive without failure(post if large # of reallocated sectors)? Any manufacture of SSD but if you have over 12TB you should post if it was an SLC or MLC or hybrid SLC/MLC type. Mod edit: SSD Life can show how much has been written on the drive: http://ssd-life.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A Rare Win For The Unions? Staples Abandons Postal Service Trial
The labor movement hasn't had the best 2014 so far, with a bruising defeat for the UAW in its attempts to organize auto workers in the South, and an ominous Supreme Court ruling for public sector unions. But today, the American Postal Workers Union and its allies seem to be making progress in an important battle.
The APWU has long opposed a trial program, which began in the fall of 2013, to offer postal services at Staples stores. The program, the union said, would undermine the role of post offices and shift postal worker jobs to lower paid and less experienced Staples retail staff. In April, it called on other unions to join it in boycotting Staples in protest of the program.
And on Monday, days after the 1.6 million member American Federation of Teachers said it would join the boycott, Staples and the USPS told the WSJ the pilot program would be discontinued. More on this after the jump…

We are Rochester Hockey, LLC and are more commonly known as the Rochester Americans. (Rochester Hockey, LLC is referred to in this Website Privacy Statement as "we", "us", and "our".) We are the operator of this site.
As part of our site, we may gather certain types of information about visitors to our site. This is our Website Privacy Statement. It explains our privacy practices relating to our site, including the types of information we gather over our site, what we do with it and how you may correct, update, or limit our use of, personally identifiable information that we may collect over our site. By accessing or using our site, you shall be bound by, and you agree to the collection and use of your personally identifiable information as set forth in, this Statement. If you do not agree with any part of our Website Privacy Statement--including the collection and use of your personally identifiable information as set forth in this Statement, do not access or use our site.
We may collect information about visitors to our site, including: (1) personally identifiable information (for example, a visitor's first and last name, address, e-mail address, birthdate, credit card information, etc.); and (2) aggregate information (for example, how many total users: visit our site, access particular pages on our site, etc.).
Personally, identifiable information may be collected when visitors voluntarily submit it to register for or participate in website services. Website services may include one or more of the following elements or services which we may choose to offer on our site: (1) enrolling in an "e-mail list" in order to receive from us periodic informational e-mails, (2) participating in any public areas on our site (for example, chat room(s), bulletin board(s), etc.), (3) user feedback, (4) answering surveys, and (5) entering promotional events, contests and sweepstakes. We also may collect personally identifiable information from other areas of our site and we also may collect e-mail addresses from visitors who voluntarily contact us to seek technical assistance or other information. In addition to the uses described below (see "How We Use Personally Identifiable Information"), this information enables us to improve our site and make your online visits more productive and enjoyable.
Aggregate information tracks activity on an anonymous group basis, instead of on an individual basis (for example, the total number of visitors who have expressed common interests when registering for website services). Thus, unlike personally identifiable information, when we use or pass on to others aggregate information, the identities of individual visitors are not disclosed.
We may develop aggregate information by taking personally identifiable information which we have gathered from visitors and then organizing and compiling that information on an aggregate basis. For example, if 400 out of 1,000 visitors were to list Buffalo as an address when registering for a particular website service on our site, then we may choose to aggregate, or add together, that data so as to tell others that 40% of those registrants are Buffalo residents. Please note that unless a visitor has "opted-out" (see the section below entitled "Opting-Out: Choices Available to Visitors"), we may also use the same data in this example on a personally identifiable basis in the manner discussed in this Website Privacy Statement.
We may also collect information about visitors through technological means, including the use of IP addresses, certain tracking capability of our internet service provider's software, "cookies", or other technological means, examples of which are discussed below:
IP Addresses: Whenever you log-on to our site or other websites, your internet service provider assigns you a number which is referred to as an "IP address". Your IP address identifies your computer. Among other uses, this allows the internet signals associated with the website to which you have logged-on to be routed back to your computer.
The computer which hosts our site may be programmed so as to collect and log the IP addresses of our visitors. We may use this information to assist us in the administration of our site, to collect and report aggregate information, to monitor the use of our site, or to identify and gather personally identifiable information about users in response to certain of the special circumstances described below under the Section "How We Use Personally Identifiable Information".
Tracking through Internet Service Provider's Software: Through the software of our internet service provider we are able to obtain certain non-personal and aggregate information. This information may include: the visitor's browser (for example, Netscape, Internet Explorer, etc.), his or her type of operating system (for example, Macintosh, Windows, etc.) and the domain name of the visitor's internet service provider (for example, America Online). We may use this information to enhance the visitor's online experience. Additionally, we may use this information to gather aggregate information about our site.
Cookies: A cookie is a small data file that a website stores on your hard drive when you access that particular site. For example, a cookie could be programmed to "remember" your passwords and viewing preferences with respect to a given site. At present, we use "cookies" to improve our site, but not, however, to collect personally identifiable information from our visitors. You may be able to set your browser to refuse cookies from our site or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you do deactivate your cookies function, then some areas of our site may not function properly.
By clicking on advertising material or on links which appear on our site, you can arrive at an "advertiser site" or a "linked site" and receive cookies from that site.

If you have registered for any of our website service(s), then you may review any of your personally identifiable information, which we have collected over our site and have retained, in order to update, confirm or delete such information. You may do so by e-mailing our Webmaster at the address set forth above. As soon as practicable following our receipt of your e-mail, we will e-mail to you any of your personally identifiable information that you have provided in registering for our website service(s) and which we have retained. For security purposes, we will provide such information only to the original email address which was provided to us. If you wish to update, correct or delete the information that we have e-mailed to you, then please advise us of the changes by return e-mail to our Webmaster. As soon as practicable following our receipt of your return email, we will adjust our records accordingly.
Occasionally, contests or sweepstakes may be posted on our site. We may collect personally identifiable information when you register for contests or sweepstakes. Any such promotions would be conducted in accordance with any applicable law. (See "Miscellaneous" under our Terms and Conditions for the law governing our site.) Sometimes, the name of a promotion winner may be posted on our site, as indicated in the Official Rules of such a promotion. We may also notify a winner by e-mail.
It is possible for children under the age of 13 to surf the "web", including our site. We believe that parents should supervise the activities of such youngsters when they are on the internet.
At present, our site does not knowingly permit children under the age of 13 to register for any website service made available over our site or otherwise submit personally-identifiable information to us. While this Statement remains in effect, registration formats for any website service which we elect to include as a part of our site will require each registrant to set forth his or her birthdate. If the registration submitted by the visitor indicates that he or she is under the required age for that service, then our system is designed to automatically reject the submission.
We have implemented the following procedures which are designed with the objective of maintaining the security of personally identifiable information which we collect from our visitors: (i) all personally identifiable information which you provide us in registering for any website services, is stored in an account which is maintained on the computer which hosts our site, and (ii) access to that account requires a password except by the entity which operates the computer that hosts our website. Also we have instructed our website administrator, who shall have use of the password, (iii) to make the password available only to the person(s) whom he or she designates, and (iv) to provide your personally identifiable information only to: (a) those people within our organization or any third-party internet-service providers who require personally identifiable information to perform their job functions and (b) unless you opt-out, to the operators of our Affiliated Website(s) (see "How We use Personally Identifiable Information"). Unfortunately, no transmission of data over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and such transmissions are done at your own risk.
Please use care when participating in any service areas that we may establish on or as a part of our site and that are open to the public. We strongly recommend that you do not post personally identifiable information on these service areas. If a visitor voluntarily discloses personally identifiable information in a public area on our site, that information, as well as the content of the posting, may be collected and used by third parties who you do not know. (Please see our Terms and Conditions for a complete description on postings in public areas of our site; that discussion takes place under the section "Visitor Postings and Submissions".)
Please see our Terms and Conditions for our disclaimer of any warranties concerning our site and a limitation of our and others' liability; that discussion takes place under the section "Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability".
We reserve the right to amend this Website Privacy Statement at any time. Any changes shall be effective immediately upon our posting the revised Website Privacy Statement. If on one or more occasions we make any change(s) to this Website Privacy Statement, then we will post the latest date on which this Website Privacy Statement shall have been modified. That posting will appear on the home page of our site next to the icon "Website Privacy Statement". Your continued access and use of our site after we post the modified Website Privacy Statement indicates that you agree to be bound by our Website Privacy Statement as modified.
