The president is projecting his own personality onto Bloomberg because he doesn't want the former New York City mayor, who is roughly 17 times as rich Trump, to "spend money helping whoever the Democrat nominee is" — and hurting Trump's own reelection chances. In other words, Trump is afraid. His fear is justified.

A Prince George County grand jury indicted Vanderpool Tuesday on a slew of charges, including that he knowingly exposed the woman to HIV. Vanderpool resigned from duty after his arrest.
Teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg on Friday said calls to the corporate elite meeting in Davos to immediately disinvest in fossil fuels had been ignored. Of course these demands have been completely ignored. Thunberg was a highlight of the 50th edition of the conference, drawing massive attention including barbs by US Secretary Steven Mnuchin who on Thursday told the teen to go "study economics".

The Navy is reportedly investigating videos found on the website Pornhub that they believe show unsuspecting service members through a peephole in a bathroom. The videos were discovered earlier this month by an agent from the Naval Criminal Investigative Series, according to a report by NBC News. Several reportedly show sailors and Marines in uniform, with visible name patches.
The US has denied the UK's request for the extradition of the US diplomat's wife who is accused of causing the death of a British teenager near a US military base in England last summer. Harry Dunn was killed after being struck by a car which was allegedly being driven by Anne Sacoolas on the wrong side of the road. A spokesman for the Dunn family accused the Trump administration of taking a "wrecking ball" to the alliance between the UK and US.
China broadened its lockdown to include at least 13 cities Friday as it strives to contain a deadly virus outbreak the World Health Organization has termed a domestic health emergency. The respiratory virus has claimed 26 lives and infected at least 830 people in China since it was first detected at a seafood market in Wuhan last month, according to figures provided by the National Health Commission Friday morning. While cases of the new coronavirus have been detected around the world, from Thailand and South Korea to the United States, WHO said the situation does not yet constitute a global health emergency.
Although supercarriers have participated in nearly every military conflict since the commissioning of USS Forrestal in 1955, no carrier has come under determined attack from a capable opponent. In part, this is because supercarriers are very difficult to attack, but the symbolic grandeur of the massive ships also plays a role; no one wants to know what the United States might do if one of its carriers came under attack. What would happen if a foe attacked a United States Navy (USN) aircraft carrier during a conflict?
Experts are seeing shocking similarities between the coronavirus that has now spread beyond China and the SARS outbreak of 2003. Like the infectious pneumonia that has killed at least 17 people, SARS was caused by a coronavirus that originated in China. People were out at markets without masks, "preparing to ring in the New Year in peace and had no sense about the epidemic," Guan Yi of the University of Hong Kong's State Key Laboratory of Emerging Infectious Diseases told Caixin.
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte warned the United States on Thursday he would repeal an agreement on deployment of troops and equipment for exercises if Washington did not reinstate the visa of a political ally.
While much of the nation was focused on Donald Trump's impeachment trial in the Senate, the president gave an interview in Davos, Switzerland, that undercut one of his key pledges from his 2016 campaign, declaring his intention to "take a look" at cutting benefits to entitlement programs, such as Social Security and Medicare. Asked by CNBC host Joe Kernen whether he would ever consider cutting entitlements, Trump, who had run on a promise to protect Social Security and Medicare, didn't rule it out. At some point they will be.
The armed parishioner who took down a shooter at a Texas church in December criticized former New York mayor Michael Bloomberg's gun control efforts on Wednesday. "Mr. Bloomberg, had we operated by his standards or his wishes, the carnage would have been significantly greater because the individual still, after the shooting, still had seven live rounds in his gun and three more in his pocket," Jack Wilson said in an interview on Fox News. Wilson, a member of West Freeway Church of Christ in White Settlement, Texas, fired a single round at an armed intruder on December 29, killing the assailant.
The deceased inmate's sister Patricia Young lodged a lawsuit on Thursday with the circuit court of Pulaski county, Arkansas, petitioning city authorities and the local police department in Jacksonville to release crime scene materials to her family. An 81-page filing in the lawsuit provides damning new evidence that key aspects of the prosecution case against Lee were deeply flawed. The complaint includes expert opinion from a number of world-leading specialists who find glaring errors in the way forensic science and other evidence was interpreted.
Anti-Semitic graffiti was found scrawled on the door of the son of a Holocaust survivor in the northwestern Italian town of Mondovi on Friday, triggering outrage from politicians and rights groups. The words "Juden Hier" (Jews Here) were written above a Star of David on the door, recalling the signs put on buildings in Nazi Germany to mark the homes and businesses of local Jews. The house in Mondovi used to belong to Lidia Rolfi, who joined the resistance against Nazi invaders in World War Two but was swiftly captured and deported to the Ravensbrueck concentration camp in Germany in 1944.
Such a move could lift Biden's campaign and perhaps do even more to enhance Harris' chances of becoming vice president, but it could also anger her liberal base in California. An endorsement by Harris, if she wades into the primary race at all, would be unlikely to happen until after the Senate impeachment trial, said the officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations. Yet she and Biden, the former vice president, have remained in contact since she exited the race and had a long conversation in the immediate aftermath of her departure.
China sealed off millions more people near the epicentre of a virus outbreak on Friday, shutting down public transport in an eighth city in an unprecedented quarantine effort as the death toll climbed to 26. While the World Heath Organization held off on declaring a global emergency despite confirmed cases in half a dozen other countries, China expanded a lockdown now covering some 26 million people and cancelled some Lunar New Year celebrations to prevent the disease spreading further. The virus that emerged in the central city of Wuhan has now infected 830 people, the national health commission said.
For decades, the Indian Navy has been the dominant regional power in the Indian Ocean, and has even boasted a carrier aviation capability that was nearly unique in Asia. But as outlined in a report by the Center for New American Security (CNAS), the growth of Chinese military power in the last two decades has dramatically eclipsed India's own attempts to modernize and expand its forces—particularly in the maritime domain. This is problematic due to New Delhi's tense relations with Beijing since a 1962 border war.
Mark Wilson/Getty Images The White House broke its silence Thursday on reports that Saudia Arabia was likely behind the hacking of Jeff Bezos' phone. The White House called Saudi Arabia an "important ally" and said it doesn't have any additional information on the hacking allegations but it's taking the situation "seriously." The spokesperson did not say whether the US plans to investigate the hacking, which the United Nations called for on Wednesday.
Lawyers for the woman accused of procuring underage girls to have sex with Jeffrey Epstein told a judge that hackers "breached" her computer after a court failed to redact her email address in filings it released last year. Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyer Ty Gee said in a December letter to Judge Loretta A Preska that, "despite the Second Circuit's best efforts, it made serious mistakes" when redacting thousands of pages of records associated with a defamation lawsuit filed by one of Epstein's accusers, Virginia Giuffre. Ms Giuffre's 2015 lawsuit argued that Ms Maxwell publicly called her a liar for claiming that the British socialite approached her at the age of 15 and encouraged her to sleep with the convicted sex offender.
U.S. Vice President Mike Pence met with Pope Francis at the Vatican on Friday, discussing the anti-abortion march in Washington and telling the pontiff, "You made me a hero" back home by granting him a private audience. Pence was beaming after the meeting, which appeared to be particularly cordial. The hero description apparently referred to Pence's Catholic family upbringing.
Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said she was "stunned" by remarks given by House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler at the start of the trial, where he accused senators of being complicit in a cover-up if they shot down measures to hear from additional witnesses. Collins, a key moderate who Democrats are hoping to convince that more witnesses should be heard from during the trial, said the remarks caused her to write a note to Chief Justice John Roberts, asking whether the Senate's rules had been violated. "I was stunned by Congressman Nadler's approach, and it reminded me that if we were in a normal debate in the Senate, that the rule will be invoked to strike the words of the Senator, for impugning another Senator in this case," she explained in an interview with Politico, remarks that were confirmed by her office.
Mexico is seeking the extradition from the United States of the son of a Sinaloa cartel drug lord over the 2017 murder of acclaimed journalist Javier Valdez, the attorney general's office said Thursday. Damaso Lopez Serrano, the son of former top "El Chapo" lieutenant Damaso Lopez Nunez "El Licenciado", is accused of being the mastermind behind the killing of Valdez. An arrest warrant for Lopez Serrano was approved Thursday afternoon after prosecutors interviewed members of the Sinaloa cartel who testified against him, the attorney general's office said in a statement.
The bodies of three U.S. firefighters who died in a plane crash earlier this week in Australia's remote bushland while battling a fierce wildfire have been recovered, the police said on Saturday as investigators started probe into the accident. A spokeswoman for Australia's New South Wales state police confirmed the recovery to Reuters in an e-mail. Coulson Aviation, the private Canadian firm that employed the trio, named them as U.S. military veterans Captain Ian H. McBeth, 44, of Great Falls, Montana, First Officer Paul Clyde Hudson, 42, of Buckeye, Arizona, and Flight Engineer Rick DeMorgan Jr., 43, of Navarre, Florida.
A FISA Court order declassified Thursday confirmed that the government had found two of the four FISA applications authorized for the FBI to surveil 2016 Trump-campaign adviser Carter Page to be "not valid," and will further investigate the validity of the other two. Based on the ordering of the applications, it appears the review found the second and third renewal applications used against Page to be invalid, while the original application and the first renewal remain under investigation. The court also said it was still waiting on the Bureau after it "agreed 'to sequester all collection the FBI acquired pursuant to the Court's authorizations'" against Page, but so far has not provided an update.

How to Remove Mold from Caulk
Explore this Article Using Ammonia Using Bleach Using Non-Toxic Mold Killers Article Summary Questions & Answers Related Articles References
There are 15 references cited in this article, which can be found at the bottom of the page.
Removing and replacing old caulk can be a time-consuming project if it starts growing mold. Thankfully, this may not be necessary to get rid of your mold problem. Try cleaning the caulk first with common household staples like ammonia or bleach (be sure NOT to mix these two chemicals or use at the same time!). These are proven mold killers up to a certain point, but as harsh as they are, other non-toxic household items (like vinegar and baking soda) often prove to do an even better job!
Using Ammonia
1Ventilate the area. Keep in mind that ammonia can have harmful effects when inhaled. Improve the air circulation. Open windows and doors, switch on exhaust fans, and/or set up other fans to get the air moving.[1]
2Wear a respirator. Chances are that in areas like bathrooms, your options for improving airflow are pretty limited. In this case, be sure to wear a respirator that will filter out the fumes. Or just wear one anyway to be extra safe- A plain paper face mask depicted in the graphic will not protect you from ammonia fumes. You need an activated charcoal cartridge respirator fitted to seal to your face and designed to absorb ammonia. Many hardware stores can assist you in finding the right respirator, and you can also find more information about them online..[2]
3Make your solution. First, improve the ventilation in the area you're mixing this if you're doing so somewhere other than the area that needs cleaning. Then mix equal parts ammonia and water either directly in a spray bottle or another container before pouring the mix into your bottle with a funnel.[3]
4Spray and scrub. Once your solution is mixed, squirt an even amount over the moldy caulk. Wait five to ten minutes for it to settle in and start killing the mold. Then scrub the sprayed caulk with a small brush. Wipe the caulk down with a cloth or paper towels to remove all traces when finished.
5Repeat and evaluate. If the first application didn't kill or remove all the mold, try again. If repeated tries don't seem to be doing anything, use another cleaner. Keep in mind that ammonia can be an effective mold killer with non-porous surfaces, but often has difficulty with porous ones like caulk.[4]
6Use another cleaner if the problem returns. Be aware that caulk may look clean after you've scrubbed and wiped it down, but mold may still be present. If it reappears soon after your attempt with ammonia, treat this as a sign that the mold's roots are too deep in the caulk for the ammonia to reach it effectively. Move on to another solution.[5]
Using Bleach
1Expect the same risks and limitations. Ventilate the area as you would when using ammonia. Also be aware that chlorinated bleach has the same difficulty with porous surfaces. Consider bleach as an alternative only if you don't have any ammonia on hand (or if you would just rather use bleach for whatever reason). If you've already tried ammonia, skip the bleach, since it probably won't do any better of a job.[6]
- Additionally, keep in mind that bleach and ammonia create toxic fumes when mixed. So if you've already sprayed the caulk with ammonia, don't follow it up with bleach.
2Make your solution. Measure 1 cup (237 ml) of chlorinated bleach. Pour it into 1 gallon (3.75 L) of water. Stir until it's evenly mixed.
3Scrub light mold with a soaked sponge. If your mold problem is pretty light, grab a fresh sponge. Soak it in your solution and squeeze out the excess. Then simply scrub the moldy caulk with that.[7]
4Spray more pronounced problems before scrubbing. If a quick scrub with a soaked sponge doesn't do the job by itself, fill a spray bottle with your solution. Mist the moldy caulk and give it five or ten minutes to settle into the caulk. Then wipe it down again with your sponge.
5Repeat with a cleaning brush. If the sponge still isn't cutting it, spray the caulk again. Give the bleach time to reach the mold's roots. Then scrub again, only this time use a bristled cleaning brush.[8]
6Treat deeply rooted problems with cotton coils. If spraying the caulk doesn't seem to be enough for the bleach to reach the mold's roots, switch to cotton coils. Soak these in your solution. Place them along your caulk line and nudge them into it with a Q-tip. Leave them overnight so the caulk can soak up as much bleach as possible. Then scrub it down again in the morning.[9]
7Spray the caulk again once cleaned. Remove mold and other dirt by wiping down the caulk with a cloth or paper towels. Then spray the area again with your solution and let it be. Prevent new mold from growing by keeping this active agent in place.[10]EXPERT TIPAshley Matuska
Cleaning Guru
Continue to be diligent in your cleaning. Ashley Matuska of Dashing Maids says: "Bleach is excellent for killing mold, and it can often turn faded and discolored grout back to its original color. In the future, though, the best thing you can do is to be diligent about cleaning on a regular basis. If the mold is growing in the shower area, dry the walls and the door of your shower every time you use it, because mold can build up very quickly."
Using Non-Toxic Mold Killers
1Use 3% hydrogen peroxide. First, check the ingredients to make sure it has a concentration of 3%. Then simply fill a spray bottle with the stuff and spray the caulk until it's thoroughly soaked. Give the cleaner ten minutes to settle in, and then scrub the caulk with a sponge, brush, or both. Wipe the area clean when finished.[11]
2Go with vinegar. Use white distilled vinegar, not any other fancier varieties that you might have in the pantry. Fill a spray bottle and then soak the moldy caulk with it. Let it soak for one hour, then wipe the mold away with a sponge and rinse with water.[12]
3Use baking soda with water. Measure a ¼ tablespoon of baking soda. Dump this in a spray bottle. Fill the bottle with water and shake it up. Spray the affected area once and then wipe it clean immediately with a sponge or brush. Then rinse the caulk line with water and spray again to stop mold from growing back.[13]
4Try a borax-and-water solution. Add 1 cup (204 g) of borax to 1 gallon (3.75 L) of water. Either soak a sponge in the solution and soak the mold with that, or fill a spray bottle and mist the caulk. Then scrub it down with a brush and wipe it clean.[14]
Community Q&A
QuestionThe grout in my tub has mold, how do I get rid of the mold behind the grout?Debra BishCommunity AnswerThe mold on grout and caulking can be removed with salt and vinegar. If that doesn't work, rinse well, and try a bleach and water solution - use about a cup of bleach in a gallon of water. Be sure you're wearing rubber gloves and protective eye goggles. Scrub the grout with a scrub brush using the bleach and water.
QuestionWill removing black caulking around tub harm my cat after it's off?Community AnswerIt could. You should always clean up the area thoroughly once you're finished and dispose of the garbage where pets and kids can't reach it.
QuestionI need to clean/whiten caulk that's been blackened by mold. I can't use bleach or ammonia. Would hydrogen peroxide or white vinegar be effective?Community AnswerMake a paste of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda. Let it sit for 10 minutes and then scrub with a brush. Wash clean with a wet cloth.
- Always wear appropriate eye and hand protection when using cleaners.
- Storebought mold-and-mildew killers sometimes contain ammonia, so always check their ingredients before using in conjunction with bleach.[15]

In-depth: Turtles
Turtles Take the Heat
by Robin Marks
What would the world be like if no men were born? Business for barbers would decline, Father's Day would be a moot point and finding a tenor to sing La Bohčme would be a challenge.
Most important, with only one gender the human species wouldn't be around much longer.
In a less dramatic, but possibly no less drastic way, this is a plight facing many of the world's turtle species, including river turtles like the
Many turtle species already face a litany of threats: land and water pollution, loss of habitat, and consumption by humans. The impact of climate change on turtle populations is more subtle and less understood, but it is clearly having an effect -- rising temperatures lead to rising sea levels, which means more flooding and erosion at nesting sites along the shore. For some turtle species, this climatic turn could also result in fewer and fewer males.
What does rising temperature have to do with a deficiency of males? The determination of sex in turtles is quite different than for mammals. In humans, for example, the gender of a child is determined by which chromosome, X or Y, it receives from its father. But the vast majority of turtle species don't have these sex chromosomes. Instead, the sex of the offspring depends on the temperature of the eggs during the first third of their incubation. This phenomenon is called temperature-dependent sex determination, or TSD.
There are two patterns of TSD in turtles. In the first, cooler incubation produces more males, warmer incubation produces more females, and a middling temperature results in a mixture of sexes. The second pattern produces mostly females at either end of the temperature spectrum and mostly males when temperatures are in the middle. The river turtles in the
You might think that this sort of reproductive system could lead to imbalanced sex ratios even without a climate crisis, and you'd be right (at least in some cases). Under certain conditions, turtles like those in the Podocnemis family can have more females than males in a given population. But a favoring of females isn't necessarily a problem, as the gender distribution in the population may even out again over time.
Still, a population of turtles that consistently has too many females (or too few males, depending on how you look at it) isn't good for the overall future of a species. If the sex bias becomes extreme, a smaller group of males will be fathering the offspring, meaning there will be less genetic variability and therefore less resistance to disease, climate and other pressures. Ultimately, a less-varied population will be less healthy over generations.
Some wildlife conservation groups have advocated taking advantage of TSD as a way of artificially producing more females in populations of endangered turtle species. Others have argued that this kind of intervention unnaturally restructures the population and so may not actually be a benefit over the long term.
It has been a challenge for researchers to get information on the long-term effects of temperature on turtle populations. Good data requires that scientists be able to constantly monitor the temperatures of nests in order to determine what kinds of fluctuations lead to what kinds of effects. Since this is hard to do in the field, most studies on TSD have been in labs. And although such studies yield useful information, they can't provide information on the larger picture of changes in a natural environment over time.
What scientists do know is that turtles are ancient creatures, with fossil remains dating back 200 million years. They've proven resilient in the face of enormous natural challenges, surviving ice ages and the mass-extinction events that killed the dinosaurs. Perhaps they can survive the trials of a world dominated, and warmed, by humans.

SlimVox Review
If you look at most diet pill review sites or even sites that sell diet pills for women, a lot of those sites are recommending SlimVox.
It makes me wonder why it's being recommended in so many places. You can figure it might be for a couple reasons.
It might be because there is an affiliate program offering a hefty percentage to anyone who refers traffic to SlimVox, but I don't think that's the case. Most affiliate products that offer high amounts to affiliate are pretty pricey products and SlimVox isn't.
It might be because SlimVox is actually worth recommending. I wanted to find out if that's really the case.
SlimVox isn't exactly like most diet pills made for women. A lot of diet pills made for women are simple formulas that just make sure to leave out the additional stimulants. But SlimVox is actually marketed to be more of a all-around, body-toning, overall-enhancing diet pill.
Read more about SlimVox at SlimVox.com
That's interesting because the promises coming from the makers are pretty tough to live up to. So let's take a look.
What Is SlimVox Supposed to Do Compared to Other Female-Specific Diet Pills?
There are a bunch of diet pills made for women that help with weight loss. But in addition to helping you get rid of stubborn fat stores, SlimVox is supposed to help you boost your energy, suppress your appetite, enhance your breasts, and even increase your sex drive and give your mood a boost. You'll see a lot of stuff about keeping your curves and getting a perfect body on the Website rather than just losing weight.
According to the manufacturers of SlimVox, this is due to a complex formula that manipulates your hormone levels to optimize your body for weight loss. SlimVox also has a superfood complex that is supposed to deliver powerful antioxidants that will even improve the look and feel of your skin.
Since there doesn't seem to be anything SlimVox can't do when you look at advertisements, I wanted to take a look under the hood, so to speak, to see if SlimVox actually had the ingredients needed for these results.
Ingredients and Mechanism of Action
Slimvox features seven active ingredients, along with a few lesser ingredients in a proprietary blend to help increase your levels of health and wellness.
• Green Tea is commonly found in weight loss supplements for both men and women. It is a great ingredient too. Its ability to stimulate metabolism and speed up the fat burning process makes it one of the best ingredients people could use for losing weight. It also provides energy and flushes the body of water weight.
• Soy Isoflavones increase the amount of estrogen your body produces. This is more of an ingredient you would only find in a supplement made for women. With more of your natural estrogen stores, your body will increase production of breast tissue even if you are long past puberty. It can be a great enhancement ingredient to ensure you keep the curves.
• Chocomine raises energy and stimulates the mood to help you get the most out of your workout. Chocomine has also been found to be a powerful antioxidant and can help get rid of free radicals that can cause aging.
• Cinnamon is a natural way to regulate glucose levels in the body and curb fat and carb cravings. Research shows that a regular dose of cinnamon can keep your metabolism running day and night.
• Ginger Root calms the stomach and reduces acidity, thus lowering cholesterol and promoting metabolism. Ginger can also help reduce the amount of irritation your digestive system can undergo while absorbing all these ingredients.
• Kelp is derived from the sea and absorbs toxins and other metabolic waste, working as a natural laxative. Kelp also absorbs water in your stomach, helping you feel more full on fewer calories.
• L-Tyrosine balances hormone levels and decreases the stress attendant with losing weight. This essential amino acid also acts as a precursor to the production of lean muscle mass which can in turn raise your metabolism.
Side Effects
SlimVox is an all-natural supplement which means that the ingredients are very safe and there are no side effects associated with any of the above ingredients to worry about.
Not only were the ingredients in SlimVox safe enough to not be associated with any negative side effects, but comments from SlimVox users were virtually free of any negative complaints about negative side effects. Some women, however, did mention that taking SlimVox in the evening made it harder for them to fall asleep at night.
How To Use SlimVox
To use Slimvox, take one capsule 30 minutes before breakfast, lunch, and/or exercise with 16 ounces of water. Though this is an open-ended direction, manufacturers do recommend that you don't exceed four capsules daily
It seems self-explanatory, but SlimVox is not intended for use by men as some ingredients, especially soy isoflavones which can put a man's hormone levels out of balance.
SlimVox Purchasing Information
SlimVox retails for the high price of $79.99 but it can be found on the official website for $39.99. For a weight loss supplement with the amount of safe and effective ingredients that SlimVox has, I think $40 is definitely a reasonable price to ask. Like I wrote earlier, you can find it on a bunch of different sites so shop around for a good deal and you can get it even cheaper. Check out Supplementing.com and see if you can get it for a better deal.
SlimVox also has a full money back guarantee for as long as 90 days. And if you are worried about not being able to contact the makers of SlimVox to get your money back, not only do they offer a toll-free number but a live online chat service to make sure that all of your questions get answered.
Overall Impression of Slimvox
Men and women lose weight differently, so it's nice to see a weight loss supplement made just for women. Although I was initially skeptical of this product, I have to say that researching it definitely helped me see how effective SlimVox can really be.
Not only have its ingredients been clinically proven to do what the manufacturers say SlimVox is capable of doing, but many women testify that SlimVox worked for them and can work for you too.

An anniversary is a momentous event in the lives of any couple, and an Anniversary Cruise is a unique way to celebrate your special day. You may just want a quiet anniversary cruise with your spouse, or may choose to celebrate in a more elaborate way with family and friends, with a special wedding ceremony and reception on board your ship or on an exotic island. Either way, it will be an occasion you'll always remember.
Here are some Anniversary Cruise Highlights:
Anniversary Vow Renewals
Many couples commemorate a special anniversary by renewing their wedding vows, and cruise lines are more than happy to accommodate them. The captain on Holland America's ships officiates at a couples wedding renewal ceremony. Guests are welcomed to the ceremony with a pianist playing his own playlist in the intimate piano bar, and guests can be treated to champagne and cake following the ceremony. Princess Line offers two different anniversary cruise packages including champagne and long stemmed roses delivered to the couple's cabin on the first evening, engraved souvenir glasses, and even an invitation from the captain to visit the ship's bridge. Carnival offers a renewals package that includes a certificate, wine toast, flowers, bride and groom glasses, and a wedding cake. Another package offers hors d'oeuvres and open bar. Royal Caribbean offers renewal ceremonies in unusual settings like Alaskan glaciers, rainforest, castles in Europe, or a vineyard in Italy.
Anniversary Cruise with Family
Some couples celebrate a special anniversary with their family on a cruise. Often the family pays for the cruise as a gift to the couple. If a group will be traveling together, special group activities can be planned by arranging them with the cruise line in advance. The couple could be feted at a special private party hosted by their family. An anniversary dinner could be planned including wedding cake and champagne in one of the specialty restaurants. The entire party could go on a shore excursion in one of the ports of call. With Holland America, if eight cabins are booked for your group, guests are served chocolate covered strawberries, and are invited to private wine tastings.
Small Ship Anniversary Cruises
For a more intimate anniversary cruise, choose one of the lines that offers a small ship experience. Cruise West's ships accommodate approximately 100 passengers, and offer cruisers the opportunity to visit Alaskan ports that larger cruise ships can't reach. The setting is informal and relaxing. American-style dishes are served. The Inside Passage, Prince William Sound, and Kenai Peninsula are among the destinations. Over four percent of all the wildlife in the world lives in Costa Rica. If you love beautiful beaches, and want to explore islands and the jungle, this uniques cruise experience may be for you. The Sea of Cortez cruises offer beautiful beaches, sparkling, clear water, historic sites, and amazing wildlife. Explore coves and old missionson a cruise you'll never forget.

I Said Captain, I Said Wot?
This, that's what (or Wot)! A frightful and totally pointless cover version of the Frankie Goes to Hollywood classic Relax, even more appalling than the red beret-wearing Raymond Burns' terrible take on Elton Motello's Jet Boy Jet Girl (later reinterpreted by Plastic Bertrand as Ca Plane Pour Moi). And that's not even mentioning his piss-awful (although charity-inspired, folks) recording of the Hokey Cokey, his snooker quiz show theme tune or his grave-stomping remake of Smash It Up (parts 1, 2, 3 AND 4, for Christssake).
This particular crime against the ears turned up on his eighth solo single, the November 1984 (that's just a few months after the original FGTH version was a hit) release One Christmas Catalogue.
The Captain has been responsible (or at least partly responsible) for some of the greatest records of the punk and New Wave era - the original Smash It Up, New Rose, the remarkable Strawberries album and so on, and The Damned hold the distinction of being the first punk band to release a single (New Rose), an album (Damned Damned Damned), to have a hit in the UK charts and to tour the United States. Splitting up and reforming on a number of occasions with varying lineups (and varying success) the Captain is once again a member of the band and they're still touring and recording to this day.
Kudos to anyone who can survive 35 years in this industry and still turn up on stage every night to play, but his solo career has hit some unbelievably dismal low points - including this one. Anyone who can squeeze the phrase "What d'you fuckin' want, shithead" on to the a-side of a hit single is alright with me, but in the case of Relax I've got to say 'Hey Ray, put a beret in it!'

I Got Me A Bilpie
Today's shameful exhibit comes from Buzz Cason - a respected name in music with a long and illustrious career as a singer, songwriter, producer and author. So how did he come to write and record this turd, a laugh riot (not!) about a hillbilly groupie, or Bilpie?
Cason was a founding members of The Casuals, Nashville's first rock and roll band. In 1960 he began his solo career under the pseudonym Garry Miles, securing his first Top 20 hit the same year with Look For A Star. He was also a backing singer for Elvis Presley and Kenny Rogers. His biggest hit (as co-writer) was with Everlasting Love, originally recorded by Robert Knight but which became a Number 1 hit in the UK for The Love Affair in 1968. he also co-wrote Knight's follow up, the brilliant Love On A Mountain Top, another huge UK hit.
In 1970, he founded the Creative Workshop recording studio, where Dolly Parton, Merle Haggard, The Judds, The Doobie Brothers, Emmylou Harris and Olivia Newton-John have recorded material. Now 70, Cason is still writing and producing songs and his book, Living the Rock 'N' Roll Dream (2004), is about the events and careers that shaped the early days of rock and roll. His latest album, Working Without A Net, was released recently.
Buzz, I could forgive you just about anything for having a hand in writing songs as great as the Robert Knight singles, but this is just horrible. Welcome to the World's Worst Records - on the strength of this sorry song you deserve to be here.

I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do...
So, what can I tell you about Buddy Raye? Well, keen readers of the World's Worst Records will already know that Buddy Raye is the nom de plume for Elmer Plinger, who also recorded for other song-poem companies as Dick Kent, Dick Castle, Sonny Cash and Richard House. As Buddy Raye Elmer recorded almost exclusively for the Sunrise label, a company which put out literally hundreds of albums in the Hollywood Sessions series during the early to mid-80s and which seems to have finally shut up shop around 1988.
During his time at Sunrise Buddy/Elmer put his vocal cords to good use, performing on in excess of 1,000 recordings for the company - songs like the fantastically awfiul Gymnasium Girl, 10 O'clock is Boogie Time, Bringin' Back the Twistin' and a fatuous ode to Ronald Reagan titled We Have the Right Man in the White House. I haven't done the math, but I think its a safe bet that if you add all of the Buddy Raye, Dick Kent et al recordings together his output is probably even greater than that of Gene Marshall/John Muir and of song-poem warhorse Rod Rogers/Rodd Keith. Mindblowing: what it must have been like to have spent a decades-long career being forced to sing rubbish like this.
Anyway, enjoy Buddy Raye's performance of I Need You

Hommage a Cowell
Today's bottom of the barrel-scraping tune comes courtesy, once again, of occasional contributor Ross Hamilton, although I'm sure many of you are familiar with the genesis of this particular poptastic track. Personally I can recall, working as the singles buyer for HMV in Gloucester at the time of its release, the seemingly endless number of free copies of this single foisted upon us in an effort to help it climb the charts.
Let me hand over to Ross: 'Another piece of trash that I re-discovered the other week. I remember this mostly from a guy I use to hang around with in the mid 1980's who only owned about three records....and this was one of them. I use to love it but, in those pre-eBay days, could never find my own copy - even though, when you are 10, I don't suppose anyone looks too hard for anything! I never forgot the track though, and on one quiet work afternoon (no doubt a Friday) I was looking through eBay and put the title in as a bit of a laugh. A copy was available and I bought it.
Playing it brought back some memories but little did I know that the person who had originally plugged this hit (it reached the top 40 back in 1982) was none other than the wrecker of music Simon Cowell.'
It's true! Basically Cowell, in his early days as a record plugger, heard a track by a German 'artist' by the name of Harry Thumann, who produced a song that sampled dogs barking and called it Ruff Mix. Tumann wasn't the first, or last, producer to do this. Stiff/Virgin Records in the UK released a single by the Singing Sheep (which I have somewhere and will post at a later date), and I used to have an entire album of Beatles tunes covered ala Ruff Mix credited to the Beatle Barkers. Cowell, who was a partner in the British outfit E&S Music with his former boss at EMI, Ellis Rich, acquired rights to the song and began promoting it, crediting it to Wonder Dog. Simon actually dressed up as Wonder Dog and appeared on a handful of UK kids TV shows to promote the song.
Fittingly E&S, who scored several hit records traded from offices in a converted gent's toilet in the NCP car park on Brewer Street in London's Soho.
If you haven't seen the footage on one of those 'before they were famous'-style compilation programmes that ITV put out every couple of months, here it is in all its glory. Listen carefully to the voice....
Ross continues: 'Cowell has been responsible for other novelty recordings travesties featuring the likes of wrestlers of the World Wrestling Federation, Teletubbies, Zig and Zag and the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers but this is the first. By the time those other songs came out, I had become a bit older and a bit wiser with my record purchases.'
Thanks Ross, for reminding me of this travesty.

Trying to look your best when you are traveling can be challenging. After all, you have limited style choices when you are trying to get dressed out of a small suitcase. That doesn't mean, however, that you should altogether give up on style. Here are some easy fashion tips from my friend who is an Upland roofer for men to use while traveling on vacation:
Invest in a comfortable pair of high-quality jeans. Well-made jeans that fit well and that have a dark wash are incredibly versatile. They can be dressed up or down, depending on what you pair them with. You should be able to create a lot of different outfits around a single pair of jeans, making them a handy addition to your traveling wardrobe. If you are visiting a hot climate, you can substitute white or light gray jeans instead.
Bring a plain button-down shirt. This is another multipurpose item that can be dressed up or down, depending on how you wear it. It looks equally as lovely paired with a pair of khaki cargo shorts for a day at the beach or a pair of dress pants for a fancy meal out.
Wear the right footwear. If you are flying, be sure to wear slip-on shoes so that you can get through security with ease. Once you arrive at your destination, plan your footwear based on the types of activities that you will be doing. Whatever shoes you choose to bring, keep comfort in mind. The last thing that you want is to have to worry about blisters or uncomfortable feet while you are trying to enjoy your vacation.
These easy fashion tips for men to use while traveling on vacation should help you look your best when you are away from home. Staying stylish on the road is all about packing multifunctional pieces that can be dressed up or down, depending on the accessories that you pair them with.

I have been UK Ambassador for Animals Asia for two years now. Visiting what I will now call "our" sanctuary in Chengdu in January 2013 was a life changing experience for me. To be able to witness close up the great work done by Jill Robinson and her team, to both repair and rehabilitate these wounded and in some cases broken moon bears, is both inspiring and deeply moving. It was also my first opportunity to meet my namesake Peter Bear. Peter Bear was the only male out of six bears rescued in January 2013. He had literally grown into his cage – his iron prison. He may never have stood up in his life, never have stretched his remarkable body. The first time he stood in his recovery cage, which literally shook with the effort of his standing, the team watched with tears in their eyes and I read the report with tears in mine.
In the intervening year and a half since his rescue Peter B has gone from strength to strength, thanks to the great work from the team and the facilities in our remarkable sanctuary. He has bonded with Shamrock and is now in the process of bonding – with more than a little possessiveness from Shamrock – with Jonah and Teddy in house 7. I have watched Peter Bear develop trust, his wonderful warm personality, and his great sense of fun.
This is how moon bears should spend their lives – preferably in the wild – but while this horrible, shocking business of bile farms exist I thank God for Animals Asia. I am proud to be their ambassador and proud to be the surrogate parent of my wonderful Peter Bear. I am also both thrilled and relieved that he is in such safe and capable hands.
It is incredibly inspiring to see the great support both for Animals Asia and Animal Welfare in general growing at such a rapid rate in China. Testament to this is the recent Nanning rescue Peace by Piece, turning a bile farm into a sanctuary with the complete co-operation of the farm owner. While the cruelty continues we need the continuing and developing backing from our fantastic supporters.
Animals Asia's motto is, "Until the Cruelty Ends" – I would add, "Making the Impossible-Possible."
Animals Asia Ambassador Peter Egan will proudly be hosting our forthcoming live auction at Gilgamesh restaurant in London on Thursday 19 June. Very limited tickets are still available for this intimate gathering. Follow this link for the chance to meet Peter and other Animals Asia ambassadors in person along with Animals Asia founder and CEO Jill Robinson MBE.

The Clone Wars Basic Figures
Item No.: Asst. 87504 No. 87699
Manufacturer: Hasbro
Number: #11
Includes: Sniper rifle, pistol, poncho, belt, companion Darth Vader figure
Action Feature: n/a
Retail: $12.99
Availability: Fall 2008
Appearances: Return of the Jedi: Infinities
Bio: The Infinities series explores tantalizing "what if" stories about what might have happened to Star Wars characters if events had occurred differently. In this tale, the rescue of Han Solo from Jabba's palace fails, so Princess Leia goes after Boba Fett in order to save Han. The climactic events on the second Death Star also take a different turn that sees Darth Vader changing his allegiances and fighting alongside his children. (Taken from the figure's box.)
Image: Adam's big Millennium Falcon.
Commentary: Nothing was really more painful than Hasbro's using the very expensive "Vintage" figure molds in comic packs, where you would get two for the price of one. This Princess Leia figure with sniper gear was originally a $13 "Vintage" figure from the movie, but had her hands and head redesigned to more accurately represent the Rebel sniper from Return of the Jedi: Infinities comic books. She can still stand and sit, and is loaded with articulation. Slightly recolored, she wouldn't really work as a perfect substitute for the movie version, but she may be close enough if you have a spare Endor helmet laying around in your parts drawers. I personally think this one is a better looking figure than the movie version, as the coloring is a big more interesting to look at and the gloves give her a more action-ready feel. I like this set, but if you're all Leia-ed out you may not feel the same way.
Collector's Notes: No reissues and limited interest from fans made this a marginal release. The white Darth Vader she's packaged with is largely the selling point as a curiosity more than anything else.

Strategic Branding – Branded Chains Vs Chains of Brands
As a hospitality consultant that develops restaurant concepts you'd be amused to hear the number of times I've met a new client who assures me that it won't be long before they 'have one of these on every high street'. Whether it's the next big thing in Indian takeaways, Chinese restaurants, cafes or kebab concepts, these entrepreneurs frequently have one clear objective: multi-unit branded roll-out.
Though commendable in ambition there is unfortunately rarely a realistic appraisal of the finance, operational knowledge or key uniqueness's required (and bloody hard work necessary) to roll out even a few units, let alone 200. Of course it is possible to strategically develop a roll-out concept from scratch and there is a process that can be followed to deliver the best chance of success. Business tools such as Competitor Analysis, Gap Analysis, Brand Handshakes, Growth Matrix and the Strategic Ps can all help develop a food service concept that perfectly fills a market niche with a desirable product that significantly meets the needs of select target segments and will work in multi-locations.
It strikes me, however, that I'm yet to come across a client who would like to develop a group or collection of brands across multiple units. Why is that? There are good examples of restaurateurs who have developed chains of brands, the most well known of which is D&D London, previously the Conran group. We work with a hugely successful group in New York, BR Guest Hospitality, who run 19 restaurants across 13 different brands. On a smaller scale but equally effective, restaurant entrepreneur Atique Choudhury, the owner of 250-cover award winning YumYum Thai Restaurant also owns a Mexican restaurant (Mercado), a Japanese restaurant (Oishiii) and is soon to open an Indian restaurant, all within 100 feet of each other in the same area of North London.
How does this strategy work? In the case of Mr. Choudhury, he simply selects gaps in the market within the same geographic location (for ease of operations and because he knows the area inside-out) and develops a concept and brand to fill that gap. Likewise with BR Guest, who strategically develop brands to deliver highly considered and finely tuned concepts for a multitude of cuisine types and market niches in carefully selected locations. Conran did the same when he was building his restaurant empire.
Maybe it's because these restaurant groups grow organically rather than initially planned as multi-unit groups that budding entrepreneurs don't tell us this is what they'd like to do? By starting with one restaurant, making that a success, then moving onto the second and slowly building a group of different brands a restaurateur can develop their operational skills and techniques over time.
I believe it would be a sound approach to develop a group of brands strategically, as a business concept. Using similar tools to those previously mentioned and applying them site specifically would likely work to deliver concepts that are perfectly adapted to meet location-specific needs and gaps in the market on a localised level. Products, pricing, service processes and physical attributes can all be manipulated to perfectly match local market requirements. This is considerably more flexible than branded chains that need to find locations that suit their products, service processes and so on. They are opposite approaches in that respect – one where the location must match the concept, the other where the concept must match the location.
So if you're planning on venturing into the world of multi-unit restaurants, perhaps you should look at the alternative roll-out strategy. If you hold strengths in branding and product development then you may well discover that a group or chain of brands is a more effective and successful approach.

Cy Baker studied scientific illustration at Southampton Institute and Blackpool and the Fylde College of Art. For 5 years he worked as a freelance illustrator doing paintings for various clients on both sides of the Atlantic, including Readers Digest, BBC Wildlife Magazine and New Holland Press.
Cy now works full-time painting and exhibiting his work and has won several awards over the years.
"My colour field paintings have been inspired by the wonders of the British countryside. I've always been fascinated by the splashes of colour I see at various times of year.
"You can see stretches of bluebells, rapeseed or heather completely dominate the landscape. Although there are many other crops or wild flowers that can create an equally impressive show.
"I also try to use the way a single colour dominates the canvas to create a slightly mythical atmosphere, which is enhanced by the inclusion of one of our native species. It's always the moment of first seeing something I like to try and capture. That single moment when the bird could fly away, or the deer bound off into the distance, having spotted you. As a result, this makes the moment very short, but no less special for that.
"All my oil paintings are on linen canvas, primed with a mixture of standard primer, cement and sometimes Polyfilla. This creates a unique texture to the canvas, which helps me to capture the atmosphere I'm after. I feel it's in the boundaries between areas of light, shadow and colour that the magic of a painting happens, and this texture helps to blur those boundaries."

Eastside Hill Interviews: Carlos Ricard
by Mark Ruddy
I have recently met Carlos Ricard. He is a man on a mission. Here is his description of his current life's work:
"As a Hispanic minority who's overcome countless unimaginable hardships, from childhood until my late twenties, I've witnessed life from the side of middle class luxuries to ghetto poverty and from street gang prison life to small town suburbia racism and discrimination. Today, as a published author currently editing my first book, I dedicate my life to helping others overcome what they consider insurmountable circumstances and altogether avoid going down the same path I once did, by using my past triumphed adversities as a navigating compass towards a completely new mindset for growth".
That is just a teaser for what you can find on his web site, carlosricard.com. Click on his "1st Lecture" to hear 13 minutes of his authentic, soulful journey that has led to his path today. Find him on facebook at www.facebook.com/iamcarlosricard
Carlos here is sort of interviewing himself. Listen to his profound story and join him in his focus on redemption and beyond.
Thank you Carlos for your openness and your insights.

- 3. Software, Performance, Battery Life
- 4. Cameras
- 5. G5 Friends
- 6. Miscellaneous and Conclusion
There has been a lot of controversy over the LG G5, mostly revolving around LG's radical changes to the physical design of the phone compared to its predecessor, the G4. For starters, LG went a full 180 degrees with the build of the phone, turning away from classy leather and instead opting for a metal unibody. But it doesn't stop here; LG decided to produce the first semi-modular phone to hit the mass market, by allowing the chin of the phone to be swapped out for a choice of (two, for now) different attachments.
I can imagine that majority of consumers aren't at all interested in the attachments, but rather are considering the G5 over the HTC 10 or Galaxy S7 due to the presence of a removable battery, great duo-camera setup, or for the sweet-spot its 5.3" display offers in terms of size. Either way, LG has kindly provided us with both the Cam Plus and B&O HiFi DAC attachments for us to review, so we will be covering those as well.
Whatever the case, the LG G5 is certainly a worthy – if not peculiar – contender in the 2016 flagship race. Let's dive in, shall we?
|5.3″ 1440p IPS LCD (554ppi), Gorilla Glass 4
|Qualcomm Snapdragon 820, Dual-core 2.15 GHz Kryo & dual-core 1.6 GHz Kryo, Adreno 530 GPU
|4GB/32GB with microSD expansion up to 256GB
|16 MP (f/1.8) + 8 MP (f/2.4), laser autofocus, OIS (3-axis), LED flash, [email protected], [email protected]
Front-facing 8 MP, f/2.0, [email protected]
|2800mAh, removable
|Weight and dimensions
|159g, 149.4 x 73.9 x 7.7 mm
What I liked
- LG's new UX on top of Android Marshmallow is clean and beautiful
- Camera quality is excellent
- Second wide-angle camera is absolutely brilliant
- 5.3" is really a sweet-spot for me in terms of display size
- Qualcomm's Quick Charge 3.0 provides noticeably faster charging speeds than the Galaxy S7's Quick Charge 2.0
- Future-proofing with removable battery, high fixability rating by iFixit and USB Type C
What I disliked
- Average to poor battery life
- Lapses in build quality: noticeable gap between the detachable chin and the main body of the phone; creaks
- Fingerprint scanner was inconsistent, hit or miss
- Modules are expensive, limited, and frankly, a hassle

Once upon a time, I was a relatively strong dude. I bench pressed and chin-upped over 300lbs, front squatted over 400lbs and deadlifted over 500lbs – life was good (and here's some proof because this is the internet after all):
These feats all occured while I was lifting at Cressey Performance for the majority of my training sessions, and while the programming was fantastic, I really attribute getting this strong to the amazing training environment that they foster there. When lifts like these are the norm among staff and clients, you quickly find yourself trying to keep up. These were Joneses of my lifting career and I constantly worked to keep up with them, loving every minute of it.
Then I got hired at a local gym and started lifting alone; I got weaker, much weaker – and it was the best thing that could have happened to me.
Nowadays, my front squat is about 70lbs less, my deadlift is about 50lbs less, and I'm committing internet suicide by confessing that my 1 rep max bench press isn't much higher than 225lbs.
What gives?
I can only speak from my experience, but I feel that this will resonate with a lot of people: the goals that I was working towards weren't my own, and I wasn't having any fun pursuing them.
I'll use someone I spoke with the other day as an example. This man has been in the iron game for a long time – longer than I've been alive, and he is a bench press junkie. If it were legally acceptable to marry it, I think that he would. Over the last few years though, he's experienced a sharp decline in his strength and he's constantly in pain. After hearing him talk about how much it hurts to bench, I asked him if he even liked doing.
His answer? Nope. Too painful.
Yet he persists, despite it not being in his best interest.
If he doesn't like doing it AND it causes him pain, why does he do it?
This makes me wonder how many people out there are doing exercises that they hate and are chasing goals that they don't even remotely want to accomplish, in some cases just to impress others or keep up with the Joneses. I'll be brutally honest and say that before this epiphany, the only reason I wanted to be super strong was so that I could be a part of the cool club, and so that I could boast a high number if anyone asked how much I lifted it.
After getting away from the crowd and examining my own reasons and motivations for lifting, I was able to discover what my true goals in the gym were. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm a simple man with simple needs. I want to be healthy, pain free, look good naked, and be able to accomplish some cool stuff in the gym – that's it. Bench pressing 350lbs? That's cool to watch, but I don't care to work towards that, because it isn't necessary for my goals. Hell, for the next year of my training I'm abandoning the barbell completely in the pursuit of other tools and pursuits.
If I like it, I do it. If I don't, I won't – this is the mantra that I live by.
This whole working out and training thing is ideally something that you're going to be doing for the rest of your life, so you had better like what you're doing to a certain degree. Doing something just because some guru says that it's absolutely necessary, even if you hate it, won't do you a lick of good in the long run. This doesn't apply to just lifting, but life as well.
You know, some people say life is short and that you could get hit by a bus at any moment and that you have to live each day like it's your last. Bullshit. Life is long. You're probably not gonna get hit by a bus. And you're gonna have to live with the choices you make for the next fifty years.
– Chris Rock
Life is too short to fill it with things that don't bring you joy. Follow the Joneses for too long and one day you might find yourself at the end of a road only to realize that it lead you to a place that you don't want to be at all. That's how some end up working a job that they hate to pay for the expensive gadgets and luxuries that help distract them from the fact that their life isn't what they want it to be.
The great thing about goals is that no matter how goofy,wild or against the grain they may same to others, they are uniquely yours and yours alone, and no one can take them away from you – PURSUE THEM!
I challenge you all to look at the road you're on and ask yourself some questions: Are your goals your goals? Is this where you want to go? Regardless if the answer is yes or no, I'd love it if you'd share your story & thoughts in the comment section below. If it's too private and you want to keep it private or bounce ideas off someone, shoot me an e-mail and I'd be more than happy to be that dude: firstname.lastname@example.com

Recently, there was a rendered image of the Motorola Moto Z2 Play, which showed us how the device looks. As per the image, the device will be thinner than the original Moto Z Play, which means that the battery size will also be crammed.
That said, Venture Beat has leaked the complete specifications of the upcoming Moto Z2 Play. According to the leak, the Z2 Play will have a lot smaller battery of 3000mAh, which is a serious downgrade, because the Z Play was the best battery smartphone of 2016.
Besides the battery size, the leak also has complete specs of the phone. It is said that the phone will have the 5.5-inch Full HD display. The device will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 626 SoC, paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. The chipset upgrade might be a modest one, but the bump in RAM and internal storage is a much-needed one.
The phone will run Android 7.0 Nougat out-of-the-box. The major upgrade in the Z2 Play would be its camera as it will have a 12MP sensor at the back with larger f/1.7 aperture. This setup might be the same one used on the Moto G5 Plus. The front-facing camera will be the same, but the image shows it will have dual LED flash this time.
The Moto Z2 Play will also ship in Lunar Gray and Fine Gold color options. The device will be released alongside the Moto C series, Moto E4 series, and the Moto Z2 and Z2 Force next month.

Feds: Minorities still face housing discrimation
WASHINGTON When it comes to finding a place to live, minorities still face discrimination, according to a comprehensive new federal study.
Homebuyers and renters in the market for a home were told about and shown fewer homes and apartments than their equally qualified white counterparts, The Department of Housing and Urban Development concludes.
"Fewer minorities today may be getting the door slammed in their faces, but we continue to see evidence of housing discrimination that can limit a family's housing, economic and educational opportunities," said HUD Secretary Shaun Donovan in a statement. "It's clear we still have work to do to end housing discrimination once and for all."
The agency has released results of the study in which pairs of testers one white, one minority were deployed last year to do more than 8,000 tests separately across 28 metropolitan areas. Testers' were the same gender and age and presented themselves as qualified to rent or buy a unit.
But study authors say the more subtle discrimination of telling them about and showing fewer units makes housing searches more costly and limits their options.
When renters meet in person with housing providers, for instance, they are almost always told about at least one available unit, HUD concluded. "However, Hispanic renters are slightly more likely than equally qualified whites to be told that no homes or apartments are available (1.8 percentage points). Moreover, in about half of all in-person visits, one tester is told about more available units than the other, with whites significantly more likely to be favored than minorities. Black, Hispanic, and Asian renters are all told about fewer housing units than equally qualified white renters."
Some minority house-hunters face a similar pattern of discrimination, with African-Americans 2.4 percent more likely than whites to be denied an appointment with a real estate agent. Black and Asian homebuyers are also significantly less likely than equally qualified whites to learn about all the available homes in an area, HUD said.

Kaleo's account begins as follows:
Hiked from Poamoho Ridge to Wahiawa Heights last weekend. It was cold, rainy, muddy, and wild. In terms of beauty, not many hikes can touch this one. The route traverses some of the most remote and undeveloped terrain on the island of Oahu, with an incredible two mile walk along the Ko'olau summit trail. Exactly how awesome was it? Unforgettably awesome: in fact, the route is so awesome, that we all agreed to do it every year for as long as we're still alive and able to hike. Yeah, it's that beautiful.Read more from Kaleo ....
To lengthen the hike and to avoid the need for vehicle shuttle, it is possible to make this into a big loop which starts and ends at the end of California Avenue in Wahiawa (this is the trailhead for Schofield and Wahiawa Hills).
To do this loop, follow the Wahiawa Hills trail to the Bamboo Grove along the jeep road Map Point F (see map from Stuart Ball's book below). At that point, leave the Wahiawa Hills trail to follow the switchback trail in the bamboo down to Poamoho Stream. Once at the stream, cross it to pick up a spur ridge almost immediately and follow the spur (this is a hunters' trail) which will lead to the dirt road that leads to the Poamoho Trailhead.
A half hour hike along the road will bring one to the start of Poamoho. From there, happy hiking to the summit, right turn at the summit to follow the KST (a wonderful two-hour stretch where one will pass the top-off of Pauao Ridge Trail from Kahana Valley--recently re-opened by Clines, Ong, and Smith).
Once the the terminus of Schofield Trail is reached, it is a right turn and then the rollercoaster trail back to the trailhead followed by an hour's walk on the dirt road back to California Avenue.

The Six Days of Creation Stained Glass Windows
The Fifth Day of Creation
God said, "Let the waters bring forth swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the firmament of the heavens." So God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm ... and every winged bird ... and wild animals of the earth of every kind.
A brilliant setting sun illuminates immense birds, gigantic butterflies, a leaping impala, mother bear and her sleeping cub, wandering giraffes, a bevy of Adelie penguins headed for the sea, a cavorting whale, and swimming sea turtles.

I am REALLY struggling. I had another terrible eating weekend and did not attempt to control myself whatsoever. So I was not surprised to step on the scale this morning and see that I weigh even more than when I got back from the cruise.
Today is not my official weigh in day and I WILL lose SOMETHING this week by Wednesday.
And I know I keep saying this and saying this—but today is a new start.
Hubby wants to get some weight off and today is our day 1 of working together to get healthy and get the weight off. He has a lot less than I have to lose, but he wants to feel great again.
Helping him will motivate me. It was inspiring to see him measure out 1 Tbs. of coffee creamer this morning. Back to the basics.
Now I know that I probably don't stand much of a chance to a man made of muscle in the weight loss department, but we did set up a little challenge!
The weigh in day for our contest will be on Mondays—whoever loses the most weight this week gets to pick a movie to watch and the other has to watch it with no complaints. He has already picked out his action packed man movie and I am still contemplating which chick flick I'd like to introduce him to.
I know we can do this. And doing it together will make it much easier!
To a new start!

How To Eat Lobster
Did You Know .....
- A female lobster lays as many as 100,000 eggs at a time, but only 1/10 of 1% of these eggs develop and live past 3 weeks.
- It can take a lobster 7 years to reach on pound.
- A lobster may live 100 years, grow to 3 feet, and weigh as much as 42 pounds.
Most adult lobsters near Acadia molt in July or August. At this time of year lobsters are usually sold at two prices. A softshell lobster has a shell with room for growth. The part not filled with its body is filled with water. A lower price per pound reflects this. Six to eight weeks after molting, the hardshell name once again applies. Some markets use the name "medium" to describe lobsters that are midway through the shell hardening process. Prices for "medium" lobsters fall between the softshell and the hardshell prices.
A Recommended Way To Eat Lobster
Step 7:Open the remaining part of the body by cracking apart sideways. You actually split it down the middle and end up with two pieces of the "body". There is some good meat in this section. It takes a lot of patience but if you work carefully with your fingers you can break apart the small pockets that contain little white "nuggets" of tender (and sweet) meat.
The larger the lobster the easier this is to do. Collect this meat and when done you will have a nice little pile of meat. Pour a small amount of hot butter over the pile and enjoy!!!
