Nothing is a problem on this island paradise where reggae, romance and the Caribbean sun come together. Jamaica gleams in technicolor, as lofty Blue Mountains spill onto verdant plains, shimmering sands and turquoise seas. Each of Jamaica's 12 golf courses has its own unique design, personality and topographical features. Pioneers of the all-inclusive vacation concept, you won't find an island that does it better.
The "capital of casual," Negril is located on the western tip of the island and features the white sands of Seven Mile Beach. Cruise along the coastline to Rick's Café to watch cliff divers and the incredible sunset. Montego Bay has it all, from a modern international airport to five championship golf courses to boutique and luxury hotels. Visit the Hip Strip and the Rose Hall Great House, and raft down the Martha Brae.
Runaway Bay is the ideal place to bask in the culture of Jamaica. Visit Nine Mile (birthplace of Bob Marley), ReggaeXplosion and Seville Heritage Park to get the full Jamaican experience. Located in the center of the island's long north coast, Ocho Rios is particularly noted for its waterfalls (including world-famous Dunn's River Falls), beaches, gardens and fern gullies.

Volt SS
Volt SS
Model 3655
In Stock
Volt looks with a slimmer profile
This version of the Volt offers a clean, sleek look and a classic clip-point blade. The design is based on our original Volt, a Composite Blade wonder. This Volt SS doesn't have a Composite Blade, but what it does have is pure stainless steel, all the way down.
The blade is high-quality 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, heat treated to Kershaw specifications to bring out the very best in the steel—strength, hardness, and the ability to take and hold a wicked edge. The Volt SS blade shape is a versatile clip point. With its narrow, clipped tip, it provides extra cutting control for delicate tasks. At the same time, the blade has enough belly to make it a good slicer, too.
The handle is pure stainless steel with a sturdy frame lock. It's slimmer than previous Volts, which makes it sit comfortably in your pocket. The pocketclip is reversible for either tip-up or tip-down carry. And did we mention that the Volt SS is equipped with SpeedSafe® assisted opening? Just pull back on the ambidextrous flipper and the blade moves out of the handle, quickly and easily.
Release Year: 2012
Technical Specifications
May be used on either manual or assisted opening knives. The "flipper" is a protrusion on the back of the blade that the user can pull back on, or flip, in order to move the blade easily out of the handle.
SpeedSafe® Assisted Opening
Assists you to open any SpeedSafe® knife quickly and easily with a manual push on the thumbstud or pull back on the flipper; built into many Kershaw best sellers.
Frame Lock
A portion of the handle (the knife frame) moves behind the blade to lock it into position during use. This is a safety feature of the knife.
The user may position the pocketclip for tip-up or tip-down carry on one side and one-position carry on the other.
Additional Features
- SpeedSafe® assisted opening
- Flipper
- Frame lock
- 3-position pocketclip (right/eft tip-up, right tip-down)

I'm here in the lot with a bunch of folks who are bravinga steady drizzle to enjoy BBQ, play washers and drink adult beverages. I am listening to 610 WIP and enjoying a Tastykake and a Wawa coffee.
Matt and Enrico are on their way with an opener so beverage consumption should start soon. Hopefully the rain clears up for game time!

We are sisters, the two youngest in a family of five children. Two Poppies is a place where we will be sharing our "art and soul" ~ our creative expressions, personal inspirations, thoughts and dreams. Lynne is a photographer, and we both like to create using all sorts of other artistic media.
Lynne is a mom of four who bounces all over the country (especially the South) with her Air Force pilot hubby and loves discovering new places to travel and adventure everywhere they live. She loves capturing REAL LIFE with her camera and has been featured on several photography sites and one of her images was selected for the ART of Photography Show in San Diego, California. Most of all she loves seeing the world in new ways with her little family!
Suzee has two lovely animal- & nature-loving girls (we'd have a farm near a forest and the ocean if they had their way) and is married to her fellow entrepreneurial husband. She enjoys yoga (ohm…), being creative (especially painting and mixed media), traveling, being silly with her family (think running through the sprinklers), and everything outdoors and in nature.
Our paths have included teaching (Lynne was a bilingual English/Spanish kindergarten teacher) and graphic design (Suzee has been in this field for many moons & was partner in a design group). We currently own and operate Multicultural Kids, which sells all kinds of products that encourage children to discover and appreciate the amazing world and all of its people. We feel like all of this experience gives us a very unique perspective in publishing ~ with the connection to children's literature and the design aesthetic being very aligned with our lives' journeys.
We recently published our first book, Beautiful Rainbow World ~ a photography book with carefully selected images of children from around the globe. A gift from our hearts to the world. So exciting!

Stories from those who've been there.
Would you like to share your story?
My daughter was not planned. In fact when my husband and I married we had decided that we were not having children. My husband and I both have teenagers from previous relationships. When I took a home pregnancy test and it came back positive I was very upset. I called and made an appointment at an abortion clinic. The more I thought about the more I realized I didn't think I could go through with it. I had an abortion a few years ago during which I was awake for the whole procedure. It was terrible and I had nightmares about it for quite some time after. I called and made an appointment to come to Avenue. There I was given an ultrasound and told I was 5 weeks and 6 days along. I heard my daughters heartbeat and cried. I then knew I wanted to keep her. Now when I look at her I think what a terrible mistake an abortion would have been. Thank you for helping me through this. She is the best little girl ever.
"Before I came to Avenue I had no clue about anything going on with my pregnancy…My mom did some searching on the internet and that's when she found Avenue. We went there a couple of days later. Avenue helped me by giving me an official pregnancy test to make sure I was pregnant and they also gave me a free ultrasound which I loved. I had never seen my baby before then, neither did I know that I was already 12 weeks along! I was very thankful for that. Also my counselor was really nice and understanding. I like her a lot, plus she checks in on me and the baby which I really appreciate. Because of Avenue I was able to find a doctor I liked and if I needed anything concerning the baby or myself, they gave me the information I needed. I love Avenue and I'm glad I chose them to help me."
I was cleaning out my wallet and found your card. I am not sure and can't remember if I ever told you how grateful I was for your kindness last year to me while I was going through my pregnancy that ultimately led to an abortion and wanted to make sure I did, even if it is later than expected. It's been over a year since the procedure now, and I am still very confident and comfortable that I made the correct choice for myself at the time. During those seven weeks prior to the procedure, I was a complete mess and I really appreciate your kindness, compassion, and patience with me. If it wasn't for you, I am sure I would have fallen apart.

There are too many Negroes in the NFL — players, coaches, and general managers. It was a better league when there were only whites involved. The NBA is even worse. Hockey is the best league since there are so very few Negro players. If they were fired, it would be even better. WHITE POWER.
By:-Gary Norris Gray- BASN Staff Reporter
OAKLAND,CA-BASN Last year African American quarterbacks reached for the stars with success. One weekend on the grid-iron ten Black quarterbacks started and garnered a 7-1 record with two injuries and two no decisions in week number seven. That was history but the American Sports media did not notice nor report it.
This week's games Seattle vs. San Francisco Thursday Night Game
Chicago vs. Detroit Thursday Day Game
Oakland vs. St. Louis
Cleveland vs. Buffalo
The Washington Football Club vs. Indianapolis PROTEST GAME
Carolina vs. Minnesota
New Orleans vs. Pittsburgh
Cincinnati vs. Tampa Bay
New York Football Giants vs. Jacksonville
San Diego vs. Baltimore
Tennessee vs. Houston
Miami vs. New York Jets
* Black Quarterbacks- *1) 8-4 Russell Wilson- Seattle Seahawks- This west coast rivalry moved up another notch as the Hawks brought the heat to Levi's Stadium to defeat the 49ers in a knock-down drag-out battle in Northern California. The Seahawks continue to win under the direction of The Field General, Russell Wilson who guided the Hawks to a 16-0 first quarter lead. The Seattle Seahawk Legion of Doom shutdown San Francisco. Cornerback Richard Sherman spied Colin Kaerpernick all night. Sherman's reward was two critical interceptions. The Aqua Bird D-line stopped the Niners full back Frank Gore for only 28 yards rushing. Wilson keeps his team in the game so they can win in the fourth quarter. He continues to defy all of the naysayers with victories. This game was old school football as the two teams beat up each the first quarter. Wilson (15-22 for 236 yards and one touchdown) made two outstanding plays in the second half with three San Francisco linemen came after him he made that patented spin move to escape to throw a Seattle game winning touchdown. Running back Marshawn Lynch (20 carries for 104 yards) carried the Aqua Bird offense to their eighth victory. Seahawks win 19-3.
*2) 7-5 Colin Kaepernick– San Francisco 49ers- There is something wrong with this team. They are now fighting for their playoff lives. The Niners started out strong in the first quarter keeping the game close by allowing one touchdown and two field goals the first half. The Cherry and Gold offense could not be found. This has become a growing problem for this team. It seems as if head coach Harbaugh is keeping Colin Kaepernick in the pocket forcing him to throw inside the tackle box, which is not Kaepernick's strong point. Colin got sacked four times and threw two critical interceptions. Frank Gore could not get his motor started. He only had 38 yards for the night. On Monday the San Francisco owner apologized to the fans via twitter for the team's poor performance, which does not bode well for head coach Jim Harbaugh. Seahawks win 19-3
*3) 4-4 Teddy Bridgewater-Minnesota Vikings- Mr. Bridgewater could be the most improved Black quarterback in the NFL. The Rookie has taken control of this team and they are winning again. He has stabilized the Minnesota Viking offense and guaranteed a bright future in the Midwest. He showed his maturity when the Vikings received the ball with two minutes to go before halftime. Bridgewater calmly went down the field and passed to wide receiver Greg Jennings for a touchdown and a 28-6 lead to seal the deal. Bridgewater also took care of the football with no fumbles and no interceptions. The Special Teams scored 14 points on two blocked punts for touchdowns. Vikings win 31-13
*4) 2-2 E.J. Manuel-Buffalo Bills-DID NOT PLAY
*5) 2-8-1 Cam Newton- Carolina Panthers- They played in the freezing cold of Minnesota and nobody wanted to be there, especially the Cats. The Viking special teams helped the purple and gold to this victory with two blocked punts for two touchdowns, the first in National Football League history. This season is over for the Carolina Panthers and Cam Newton (18-35 for 194 yards and one touchdown) who was sacked four times and threw another interception for the eighth straight time a team record. The Panther executives did not give Cam Newton the weapons at the wide receiver position for him to succeed this year and it shows. Newton's various injuries have hampered his mobility this year. Minn. wins 31-13
*6) 1-8 Geno Smith- New York Jets- Mr. Smith had his best game of the year but it was not enough for the New York Jets to beat the Miami Dolphins. The Jets took the early lead and also took command of the first half. The N.Y. defense helped Smith by shutting down the Miami offense giving up only a field goal. Gang Green employed the running game the whole first half with Chris Johnson (17 carries for 107 yards) and Chris Ivory(16 carries for 62 yards) carrying the load. The Jets went into the locker room like Hulk Hogan but they came back on the field like Wimpy and they needed a hamburger-quick. Offensive line coordinator Marty Mornhinweg had a plan to get the ball out of Geno Smith hands promptly with trick plays like reverses, screens, sweeps, and short passes. It worked the first half but the Fish got wise the second half. The Jets could not capitalize in the 4th quarter on a Darrin Walls interception that put the ball in Miami territory. New York could have cut the Fish with a field goal but Nick Folk pulled the ball missing wide left. The Miami Dolphin linebackers stayed at home until they could see which side the New York Jets running backs headed. The Dolphins employed different blitz schemes to confuse the Jet offensive line, it worked. The Fish got back in the game with the improving quarterback Ryan Tannehill (25-35 for 235 yards). Like Smith, it was game management time for the Aqua Fish who tied the game at 13 all. Miami would go ahead 16-13 on a field goal from Caleb Strugis at the two minute mark of the fourth quarter. This was after Tennehill engineered a four minute drive down the field to the Jet 18 yard line. Geno Smith had one more chance to pull this game out with a minute left. It ended with his one and only interception of the night with 36 seconds left in the game. Miami wins 16-13
*7) 1-2 Michael Vick- New York Jets- DID NOT PLAY
*8) 0-4 Robert Griffin III– The Washington Football Club-DID NOT PLAY The Washington Football Club changed quarterbacks and that did not help as the Indianapolis Colts crushed the Burgundy and Gold from the capitol city. It was suppose to be the battle of number one drafted quarterbacks. It would not happen, Griffin was on the bench while Andrew Luck burned the Washington defense for five touchdown passes. This game changed momentum after Washington quarterback Colt McCoy fumbled the ball for a Colt touchdown in the third quarter on the twenty yard line. IT'S ALL OVER for THIS TEAM Colts wins 49-27.
I AM NOT A MASCOT- CHANGE THE NAME- CHANGE THE MASCOT– maybe the team would start winning if you change the name.
Also PLEASE DO NOT USE FEDEX until this company stops supporting Dan Snyder and the Washington Football Club's team name. The corporate name of FedEx should be removed from the stadium. TOTAL 25-39-1 WEEK 2-3
Black Head Coaches- 4
7-5 Mike Tomlin- Pittsburgh Steelers- The Steelers could not get the job done against the New Orleans Saints. The Teflon Curtin let the Saints run all over them in the 2nd half. The Steelers started out correctly with two first quarter drives that ended in Shaun Suisham field goals instead of Pittsburgh touchdowns. This kept New Orleans in the game. Drew Brees and the Saints got their motor started with three straight touchdowns and the lead which they never gave up. Brees threw five touchdowns and 257 yards. The Saints now share the lead in the NFC South division with the Atlanta Falcons who have the tiebreakers. Both teams have a losing record 5-7. The Steelers took away tight end Jimmy Graham by double teaming him on short passing routes so Mr. Brees just threw to the other receivers for big gains. The Steelers have to find a rushing game if they are going into the playoffs. The Black and Gold got behind early and could never catch up. Running back LeVeon Bell carried 21 times for 95 yards but that was it not enough to beat New Orleans. Big Ben Roethlisberger did not have a great day either and it cost Pittsburgh a chance to take the lead in the AFC North division. Big Ben threw for over 400 yards and two touchdowns but his two interceptions hurt the team. Steelers had big second half but not enough to overcome first half blunders. Saints win 35-32
8-4 Mr. Caldwell- Detroit Lions- The Detroit Lions played their annual Turkey Day game against their conference foe, the struggling Chicago Bears. The Lions are in the thick of a playoff race as they share the lead in the NFC North Division for at least two days defeating the Chicago Bears. The Lions did not start the game well giving the new Monsters of the Midway a 14 point lead. The Bears dinked and dunked their way down the field the first two drives and converted on Lion turnovers. Detroit Lion Wide out Calvin Johnson returned to the lineup (11 receptions for 146 yards and two touchdowns) after a stint on the (I.R.) Injuried Reserve List and played well with the shorter Bear corner defender against him. Quarterback Matthew Stafford could see this and took advantage hitting Johnson to continue drives in the second and third quarters. In the third and fourth quarters, running back Joique Bell ran all over the Chicago defense with 23 carries for 91 yards and two touchdowns. The Detroit Lion defense woke up in the second period and terrorized the Bear quarterback Jay Cutler forcing him to make numerous mistakes with three sacks and two interceptions leading to Lion scores. Detroit scored 17 unanswered points in the first half and then14 more unanswered points in the second half to win this game. Lions win 34-17
8-3-1 Marvin Lewis – Cincinnati Bengals- A very ill Andy Dalton on the first play of the game threw an interception and this game would be a wild one all day. Dalton (19-27 for 176 yards and three sacks) would throw two more INT's and the Bengals could not get a solid drive started. He also rushed for one touchdown. Many Bengal fans wanted to know why Dalton was on the field. The Bengals pulled out all of their bag of tricks with a flea flicker by wide receiver Mohamed Sanu passing to another receiver A.J. Green for a first down. With each passing week that tie game with the Carolina Panthers in week six begins to loom larger and larger. The Bengals are in first place with four weeks left. This was crazy. Both teams would intercept each other time and time again, both teams played sloppy, but it kept the Tampa Bay fans in the stadium. Head coach Marvin Lewis played all of his cards right, throwing a challenge flag with under two minutes remaining, which is illegal. He could not find an official to call time out and did not want the Bucs to run the next play. So it was the second best thing. The Cincinnati coaching staff must have known they had two time outs left and could stop play on the field. A very wacky finish just as it started. Bengals win 14-13
3-8-1 Ron Rivera- Carolina Panthers-Latin Head Coach-SEE ABOVE Minn. wins 31-13
2-10 Lovie Smith- Tampa Bay Buccaneer- The Tampa Bay Bucs had the Cincinnati Bengals right where they wanted them with the ball, time running out and driving for the winning score. It all came crashing down and completely undone on one play. Head Coach Lovie Smith made a critical error leaving 12 men on the field. This has been the macrocosm of Tampa Bay's season. The Bucs could only muster two field goals and one touchdown. Josh McCown had a pedestrian day with 15-30 for 190 yards with one interception and two sacks. Running back Doug Martin (18 carries for 58 yards) tried to help the Bucs to another victory, it was not enough. Bengals win 14-13.
Black General Managers-6
8-4 Detroit Lion Martin Mayhew– SEE ABOVE Lions win 34-17
7-5 Baltimore Raven Ozzie Newsome- The Ravens must have forgotten they were playing the lightning striking San Diego Chargers and Phillip Rivers. The Ravens had control of this game until the fourth quarter when the wheels fell off. The San Diego Chargers scored 21 points the fourth quarter with a game winning touchdown to Eddie Royal from Rivers (34-45 for 384 yards and three touchdowns) with 38 seconds left. This was a stunning defeat for the purple and gold who could have taken the lead in their division. Baltimore wasted four drives with field goals by Justin Tucker. Joe Flacco (19-31 for 225 yards and two touchdowns) could not complete Raven drives. Flacco also ran for one touchdown in a wild offensive game. In the second half the Baltimore defense stayed in the locker room permitting the San Diego Chargers great comeback. This was a fantasy football fans dream and what the NFL wants. Pinball football without defense, this was it. Oh, to long for the good old days of muddy fields, great tackles, and stifling defenses. Chargers win 35-34
7-5 Buffalo Bill Doug Whaley- The Bills must be circling the wagons playing for their hero, retired quarterback Jim Kelly who is battling throat cancer. This team will not quit and whoever plays them next week better be prepared for battle. It was a defensive struggle the first half battle with the Cleveland Browns scoring only a field goal, the lone score of the first half. Both teams bend but never broke. The Buffalo Bills would step it up in the second half with outstanding defensive plays. The Bills stopped quarterback Brian Hoyer with two untimely interceptions. There was also a Johnny "Football" Manziel sighting. Manziel came in for Hoyer in the fourth quarter and rushed for a ten yard touchdown. That would be it for the slumping Cleveland Browns. Cousin MarQueis Gray (only kidding) (2 receptions for 72 yards) guided the Bills with key running plays putting Buffalo in scoring position both times. As defensive end Jerry Hughes strips the ball for a Buffalo defensive touchdown. Kyle Orton (17-30 for 190 yards with one sack and one touchdowns) just played a ball controlled offensive game managing the clock. Bills Win 26-10
6-6 Houston Texan Rick Smith- The Tennessee Titians could not decide which quarterback they wanted to start or play the complete game. It would cost the men of many blue hues. The tandem (Locker and Mettenberger) committed too many errors with three interceptions, one fumble, and three sacks. This made it easy for Houston to win this game. Texan quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick (24-36 for 358 yards) returns to the starting lineup and throws for six touchdowns as he spreads it out to all of his receivers for franchise record. Houston wins 45-21
3-9 The New York Football Giant Jerry Reese– Big Blue fans are not happy with this team because they lose to the worst team in the NFL, The Jacksonville Jaguars. The Giants went into halftime with 21-3 lead. Running back Rashard Jennings (21 carries for 91 yards) guided Big Blue with a ground attack and two touchdowns in the first half. This also was the tail of two Eli's, the good Manning of the first half and the bad Manning of the 2nd half. The Giants lost the ball too many times to win this game. Manning (24-34 for 247 yards and one touchdown) lost the ball twice on fumbles and then wide receiver Larry Donnell (5 catches for 55 yards) lost the ball on a big drive to take command of the game. The Jags capitalized and scored keeping them close. Jacksonville also muzzled rookie sensation Odell Beckham Jr.with seven receptions for under 100 yards. This season is over and it might be time to blow up Big Blue for 2015. Jacksonville wins 25-24
1-11 Oakland Raider Reggie McKenzie– It has been 20 years since the Rams and Raiders played each other in the City of Angels, Los Angeles. Back in those days the Raiders wore their throwback jerseys with shining SILVER numbers and the Rams wore old gold ram horns on their jerseys. My, my, my, have things changed. The Rams moved to Saint Louis, Missouri while the Raiders went back to Oakland, California. The Rams won the Super Bowl in 1999 and that's been it. The Oakland Raiders have not been on the radar screen since their return to the Bay Area and this year they fell off the face of the earth, winning their first game of the season last week. The first quarter the old Raiders showed up with penalties, overthrown passes and no ground game. The Black and Silver gave up three St. Louis touchdowns in the first quarter. Second string Ram quarterback Shaun Hill torched the Raiders with 10-12 and 168 yards and two touchdowns. IN THE FIRST QUARTER. Oakland went three and out four times before getting one first down. It would go downhill from there. At halftime it was 38-0. Shaun Hill ended the game with 13-22 for 182 yards and two touchdowns. This was the highest points allowed all year in the first half. Derek Carr (24-39 for 179 yards) reverted back to his old self, with three sacks and two interceptions. The Raiders could not stop running back Tre Mason (14 carries for 117 yards and two touchdowns). Veteran quarterback Matt Schaub enters the game for Derek Carr in the fourth quarter and completes his first pass. The Raider crossed the 50 yard line for the first time all day. It did not matter because Schaub lost the ball on a fumble. The second possession Schaub throws an interception for a touchdown as the Rams move to over 50 points. This was the worst defeat since 1961 when The Oakland Raiders lost to the Houston Oilers 55-0. Rams Win 52-0.
Black Ownership -0- This is a Black Eye in the NFL pun intended. Black ownership should be addressed by The National Football League.

Inspiration via Learning & Development Related Quotes
Ok, I want to semi-regularly post a learning and development related quote to inspire you L&D people out there, or for you to use to inspire the people in your organisation to learn and build their capability.
To kick things off (if you'll pardon the terrible pun), with the final of the 2018 Football/Soccer World Cup about to happen, I thought it would be appropriate to post a quote from one of the all-time-greats, Pele, who said…
"Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, study, sacrifice, and most of all, love of what you are doing, or learning to do".
Wise words indeed!
Thanks, as always, for reading – please comment, like, follow, and/or share.

Chatuchak Market (Sights & Things)
Chatuchak Market was the main reason we made a trip to Bangkok. Chatuchak is known as a very super big flea market (about 5,000 stalls according to Wikipedia) selling anything and everything.
To get to Chatuchak, you can either get a taxi or by train. Chatuchak market is adjacent to the Kamphaengphet station of the MRT Bangkok Metro Blue Line, or about a 5 minute walk from the Mo Chit station of the BTS Skytrain Sukhumvit Line and another MRT station of Suan Chatuchak (Chatuchak Park).
The market is so huge, you'll probably have a problem of where to start and how to get back to where you came from. Even before embarking on the trip, we've heard so much about the gigantic-ness of this flea market and some valuable advices about "don't even think of walking around to survey the price as if there's a good bargain at the first stall, you'll never be able to find the same stall back!"
In other words, See! Bargain! Buy!
Shoes and sneakers. They probably have all the fake Nike models here :p
One whole stall dedicated to white shirts, for those with white shirt fetish :p
Colorful accessories for the ladies, very cheap too!
Those colorful lights made from recycled paper!
Home deco items. If you like Buddha statues and carvings, you'll be spoilt for choice here too. Problem is, how to carry it back home??
Bags galore! A friend of ours had so much shopping bags that he got fed up and bought a backpackers bag to stuff all the shopping loot. Haha, real shopaholics I tell you.
Everything at 59 Bahts, about RM5.90? Mostly silver accessories, but nah we'll give that a pass.
Smileys in all colours and nationalities! Oooh I spot a Bob Marley color too.
And then there's this really awesome stall which sells paper flowers, in all species, shapes and sizes! They are all made of recycled paper and it's just so overwhelming. Perfect place to go if you like doing papercrafts, it's a craft haven :)
A mini chinese dulcimer
Street performers
We also managed to spot the Yang Qin (Chinese Dulcimer)! Well for those who know me, I play the Yang Qin so I was quite surprised to see it in Bangkok.
The other stalls worth mentioning would be one that sells laptop bags that comes in different fabrics, colors and graphics at 350 Bahts each. Then there's also the many stalls that sells t-shirts, jeans, hats, souvenirs, deco items, cooking utensils...
While it is exciting that Chatuchak is so big, it is quite disappointing in the sense that most stalls are repetitive, some things are not really that cheap, and it can be real stuffy and hot when you're walking in there. The good side though is you can get some really good bargains and out of the ordinary things here, so I would say it's a good experience.
Chatuchak food pictures up next!

Ukrainian Space Workers Rally for Back Pay
Hello reader!
It follows an article published on the day (01/21) in the website "Parabolic Arc" noting that Ukrainian Space Workers rally for back pay.

Ukrainian Space Workers Rally for Back Pay
By Doug Messier
January 21, 2015, 11:54 am
(Credt: Yuzhnoye)
The first stage of Orbital Sciences Corporation's Antares rocket
is shipped out from Yuzhnoye design bureau in Ukraine.
Interfax-Ukraine reports that workers at the A.M. Makarov Southern Machine-Building Plant (PA Yuzhmash) in Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine held a rally to protest the lack of pay and work.
The workers build Zenit and Cyclone-4 boosters as well as the first stage of Orbital Sciences Corporation's Antares launch vehicle and the fourth stage for Europe's Vega rocket. They are also involved in Dnepr, a decommissioned ballistic missile that has been converted into a satellite launcher.
The report indicates that since last July, employees have been working only three days per week and are pay $200 to $300 only once or twice per month. There's also been a lack of new orders for their products.
The company owes about $150 million in back salaries and other payments, according to the story.
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin, whose country is responsible for much of Ukraine's misery, Tweeted the following:
Source: Website Parabolic Arc - http://www.parabolicarc.com/
Comentário: Olha leitor, não tenho nada contra os trabalhadores ucranianos que estão na luta diária pela sobrevivência, muito justo, mas no que diz respeito ao Cyclone-4 esta é uma grande notícia para o PEB e para o Brasil. Este acordo com a Ucrânia jamais deveria ter sido assinado e felizmente parece caminhar para um fim melancólico, mas extremamente custoso (financeiramente e tecnologicamente) e decepcionante para o nosso país (antes tarde do que nunca). Tomara mesmo leitor que essa aventura política petista irresponsável e desastrosa jamais venha resultar em lançamentos deste trambolho tóxico ucraniano do território brasileiro.

Hi friends! Today is the most important day of the year, MY BIRTHDAY! I actually don't really like my birthday, I have this really weird phobia of aging and every year since I've turned 21, I've been really stressed out as my birthday approaches. Dramatic, unnecessary and slightly bratty- I am aware. Last night, the stress was compounded by the fact that when I was a teenager, I had it in my head that 27 was going to me the year that I had everything figured out. Back then, I was obsessed with the idea of being a doctor and so I figured by 27 I'd have graduated medical school, have my dream job, dream home and be in a happy, healthy and stable relationship. My life is LITERALLY the exact opposite of that. I randomly became a Spanish teacher, have a half Master's in special ed, I'm studying to back to grad school for another random Master's, I make about $350 a month, live in a tiny town where I think it's a victory when people call me by first name instead of Blondie, White girl or fatty, I take baths with brown water from a bucket, I regularly find myself stepping in animal excrement and I pooped my pants more than once this year. Needless to say, this is not what I imagined 27 would look like. I am so happy that things don't work out as planned (although I could live without the endless tummy issues). I would be a terrible doctor, owning a house right now sounds like the biggest nightmare and I am having way too much fun wandering through life on my own to be in a serious relationship. It is so funny how things turn out.
Today, I woke up and received a birthday kiss from my host grandma, host mom, host sisters before I even brushed my teeth. My host mom, who struggles every single month to pay the bills, bought me the most adorable earrings (from the States!) and a cute little ring. While I was getting ready for school, my neighbors walked right into my bedroom to give me hugs and kisses, I went to school and was serenaded by every class, and, of course, there were a zillion more kisses. My counterpart bought me two new pairs of nice underpants (I never even told her about my bus disaster!) Today is also the principal's birthday so the teachers went all out and there was a band, a sanchocho (local party food-soup!) lunch, dancing, cake and fun decorations. As I was walking home from school, I got a birthday shout out from someone in almost every single house. I came home to more kisses from my host family. My sisters and I just settled into bed to take a nap when it started pouring rain. Our mom came running in and said get out there! Without any hesitation, all three of us ran outside and danced in the rain with all of the other neighborhood kids. Obviously, I was the oldest person out there by almost 10 years but it didn't matter. We were just happy souls enjoying a break from the oppressive heat. It was a beautiful way to celebrate aging but keeping young at heart.
After the rain dance, we were starving and decided to cook pasta for dinner. We all piled into bed, listened to rain and laughed and told stories while we ate. Today, while I was at school, my host sister went to the "city" (a town of about 80,000 people) and picked out the most beautiful birthday cake. She even bought candles to say "27"…although she thought it was HILARIOUS to switch them around and pretend like I was 72. After dinner, my neighbors and some students came over and sang happy birthday to me and then we just hung out. My mommy called and I was able to talk to both of my brothers AND my dad (who is soo not a phone person). It was a great day!
I learned that today is also the birthday of fabulous poet, Mary Oliver, who wrote this lovely piece that I believe perfectly describes where I am at in life right now. Enjoy!
The Summer Day
Who made the world?
Who made the swan and the black bear?
Who made the grasshopper?
This grasshopper, I mean-
The one who has flung herself out of the grass,
the one who is eating sugar out of my hand,
who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down
who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes.
Now she lifts her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face.
Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away.
I don't know exactly what a prayer is.
I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down
into the grass, how to kneel down in the grass,
how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the field,
which is what I have been doing all day.
Tell me, what else should I have done?
Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon?
Tell me, what it is you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?
Thanks for reading and thank you, thank you, thank you for all of your wonderful birthday wishes! I wish you all the happiest of days! xoxoxo
My family sent me a brand new, indestructible digital camera for my birthday so finally I will have some higher-quality photos! Here are some fun ones from today.

Little Alex Bryan is back home in Llanrumney, safe and well, just a week after his life was in danger from the killer bug Menigitis C.
Mum Maureen, 39, said: "This time last week I could not bring myself to look this far ahead. We feared the worst. We did not want to kid ourselves by believing he was going to be home soon.
"It was touch and go for a while and it is thanks to my family and friends that we have got through the awful week."
Alex was discharged from the University Hospital of Wales, Heath, last night.
The toddler, who had been vaccinated against the C strain of the disease, was rushed to hospital on August 4 when his aunt Susan Allen, 34, suspected he was showing some of the symptoms of the bug.
His mum stayed at his bedside day and night as her youngest child, who was sedated and on a ventilator, battled to fight off the disease.
And finally the news the family had been waiting for came on Thursday, when Alex was moved from the intensive care unit to the central children's ward.
Mum Maureen added: "The worst moment was last Saturday when I saw the rash and the doctors confirmed they were treating him for meningitis. The next 24 hours of waiting were hell."
Susan said: "We can begin to get back to normal life now. This is an awful disease and Alex has been very lucky."
Liz Gibbs-Murray of Meningitis Cymru said: "Prompt treatment does save lives. Too often in the media we hear of the sad outcomes but it is lovely this time to see Alex recover.
"What this case proves is that just because someone has been vaccinated does not mean that they will never contract meningitis.
"There are other strains for which there is no vaccine. Nobody can be complacent."

Despite a mean ventricular rate the patient's pulse rate was only ~40 bpm, i.e. the PVC's were not resulting in 'mechanical' capture.
The patient had minor electrolyte abnormalities corrected and rate modulating drugs were reduced with resultant decrease in PVC frequency and increased mechanical pulse rate.
Pacemaker interrogation revealed no setting issues and serial troponins were negative.
The patient was discharged with ongoing cardiology follow-up.

Also, methods and processes shouldn't be dependent of a tool. Therefore, your staff will need to have its personal strategies and processes in place to start with. Using JIRA as a mission administration tool could be very straightforward and good expertise for me (I even have used some other instruments like TFS, HPQC, Team pulse). Overall: The major profit was that other IT teams have been already utilizing Jira so when we switched to use Jira Service Desk it made it much simpler to work with others.

Most of you are already familiar with tablature, also known as tabs.
Assuming you still use tabs to learn your favorite guitar solos and riffs, I have a message for you: You should never, ever rely on tabs again.
Before you start smashing your keyboards with blind, tab-loving rage, hear me out. I'm not saying you should abandon tabs completely. I'm telling you not to depend on them anymore.
Tablature is the perfect tool to introduce beginners to chord shapes and various songs on the guitar, but after you've graduated from that novice level, tabs actually inhibit your ear from getting better. As we know, ear training is one of the most important skills for any musician.
Don't get me wrong; I use tabs in my guitar lessons as references where it's appropriate, but I can promise you I never rely on tabs to learn any music. The stronger your ear, the faster you can adapt to any musical situation. Once you reach a certain point, you won't even need tabs to play back what it is you're hearing.
No longer should you ask, "Hey bro, you got tabs fo' dat?" Work on your ear training, stop living in the chains of tablature and embrace freedom!

Norton Core speed test results
The speed test on the Norton Core app shows the speed between your Internet service provider (ISP) and your router. It is usually the best speed you can get with your Internet connection.
The speed test that you run from your computer or your mobile device shows the speed between your ISP and your device. That data must pass through Norton Core.

I feel cold.
Ice runs through my veins.
Darkness slowly surrounds me.
Like a plague, negativity starts to feed.
It gorges itself.
Never a hunger that is satisfied.
It drains me, to the brink of nothingness.
In it's wake, self doubt and second guessing is all that remains.
These distorted, warped images and thoughts.
They take a hold of my mind.
An anchor that's been cast.
Its grip is tethered and tied.
Like ink in water it spreads.
It turns something that was clean and pure, dark and tainted.
I feel my soul darken.
Frozen to the world.
A statue, lifeless and empty.
Then a voice.
It is faint, but persistent.
It's presence a relief.
A light flickers.
Don't let the darkness take hold.
Ask yourself what is true, not what you perceive to be true.
This hollow feeling inside.
It's not me.
It doesn't define me.
I'm strong, not weak.
Brighter the light becomes.
I feel the heaviness in my chest lighten.
I realize this light has been there all along.
Comfort is found within.
It will get better as the light shines.
Feeling returns.
You can do this.
You will do this.
You must do this.
Fight back.
Take your mind back.
Break the chains of night.
Burst forward into the light of day.
Know your worth.
You are here for a reason, a purpose.
Life is scary.
Be brave in spite of life.
Be brave because of it.

Last week, Gmail released a new feature called "Undo Send." Here is the scenario: You type up a nasty e-mail with a few expletives in it. In your haste, you click on "Mom" from your contact list, when you meant to choose "Monty." You click send and quickly realize you sent it to the wrong person. Not a problem. Simply click on "Undo Send." The feature is designed to give you up to 5 seconds to change your mind. I tried out the feature and it worked just fine. Besides, my mother does not have an e-mail account.
You can download the e-mail option by clicking on the Google Labs option, then under "Undo Send," click Enable. You won't see the option until you compose an e-mail and then send it. You will see "Undo" for roughly 5 seconds.
I blogged about this topic in the past, and listed some solutions that individuals and companies could take in order to avoid this problem. Remember, we cannot depend on technology alone to solve all of our problems.

A year ago, Gov. Rick Snyder signed a pair of comprehensive, bipartisan energy bills that expanded the state's clean energy standards and charted a new course for how various utility programs are overseen by state regulators.
Over the course of 2017, Michigan Public Service Commission staff led working groups on more than a dozen energy-related topics, from net metering for ratepayers who generate their own solar energy to the way utilities file long-term generation plans with the state. Essentially, the working groups made up of a variety of interest groups and utilities are putting the new laws into action.
Through 2018, utilities will file rate cases under this new framework, which is already generating opposition from utility critics. For example, independent power producers across the state are challenging the way the MPSC is setting "avoided costs," or the amount utilities pay independent companies for their generation. A waste-to-energy facility in Kent County has been on the front lines of the fight throughout the year.
Observers expect this process to play out on other issues throughout 2018, particularly in changes to the state's electric choice program. With the heavy legislative work completed in 2016, those interviewed about 2018 expect most of the action playing out with regulators.
"I frankly suspect it won't be all that active of a year legislatively," said Brandon Hofmeister, senior vice president of governmental regulatory and public affairs for Jackson-based Consumers Energy. "The big stuff at the state level will continue to be implementing the new energy laws at the MPSC."
Hofmeister said Consumers is in the middle of unrolling a "clean and lean" generation strategy that depends more on renewable energy, natural gas and energy waste reduction following the closure of the utility's "classic seven" coal units, including the B.C. Cobb plant in Muskegon. Consumers has five more units operating at its Campbell plant in West Olive and in Bay City, which at this point are scheduled to stay online until 2030.
"We're really proud of the way we've approached the redevelopment and the efforts in those communities to replace economic activity and tax revenue those plants served for decades," he said.
Solving key questions about the build-out of electric vehicle infrastructure — and who will pay for it — emerged as a statewide issue in 2017. In August, the MPSC and Michigan Agency for Energy convened a group to start looking at these questions after Consumers Energy withdrew its plans for a $15 million, ratepayer-funded pilot program.
Liesl Eichler Clark, president of the Michigan Energy Innovation Business Council, says a growing consensus among companies and ratepayer-interest groups is discussing how to build the infrastructure to spark more EV adoption and the role of regulated utilities and the private sector.
"We're definitely going to come out of the gate and be robustly active on the electric vehicle infrastructure space," she said.
The MEIBC recently brought together 19 companies and associations in a joint filing in the MPSC's electric vehicle docket, Eichler Clark said.
"That's a diverse group around some broad principles," she said.
Hofmeister said the utility will likely pursue a pilot program in an upcoming rate case.
"(Utilities) are enabling a huge transition in the vehicle industry that will be cleaner and better for people. We want to push the envelope there," he said.
More broadly, Eichler Clark said her group's focus will continue to be on "reducing barriers" to acquiring clean energy. This includes supporting a pending bill that clarifies how residential solar installations are taxed, as well as being active in MPSC work groups on distributed generation, green-power pricing and integrated resource planning.
"We made a lot of progress this year," Eichler Clark said. "The good news about this (clean energy) space is there's always work to do. By no means do we have it all figured out."
The Michigan Conservative Energy Forum, a clean energy advocacy group that includes a variety of politically conservative members, also is closely following proceedings at the MPSC.
"They've got their plate full," Larry Ward, the Forum's executive director, said of MPSC staff. "Like all work groups, it's a slow, arduous process. Are they making progress? I think they are."
The Forum plans to focus on one of its key principles to eliminate barriers for customers to generate their own electricity and get it into the market. How those ratepayers and companies are compensated by utilities for the excess electricity they send to the grid will be closely watched in the coming year, particularly as the cost of solar continues to decline.
At the national level, though, solar supporters express some anxiety about a pending trade case before President Trump that would impose tariffs on imported panels. The complaint was filed by Georgia-based Suniva — which also had a plant in Michigan — arguing that cheap panels made overseas are harming U.S. manufacturers.
However, some solar advocates say — at least in Michigan — the MPSC's recent ruling on avoided costs paid by Consumers Energy could jumpstart the sector as smaller-scale solar projects could replace hydroelectric and biomass facilities that have historically been under avoided cost contracts.
However, critics say the MPSC's recent order will close some hydro and biomass facilities in the state, which generate a form of baseload renewable energy. The Independent Power Producers Coalition of Michigan also plans to appeal the ruling.
Meanwhile, perhaps the most contentious energy-related issue in Michigan is Enbridge's Line 5 pipeline through the Straits of Mackinac. Those interviewed for this story are not directly involved in the debate, but environmental groups are waging a major campaign to shut it down.
A coalition of businesses formed earlier this year are also calling for the pipeline to be shut down, while the Michigan Chamber of Commerce said this summer that the Great Lakes can be protected while the pipeline continues to operate.
"'Shut Down Line 5' may be a clever bumper sticker for environmental extremists and a handy slogan for politicians, but it ignores the facts," Rich Studley, Michigan Chamber president and CEO, said in a statement in June following the release of a state-commissioned alternatives study. "To keep Michigan moving forward, environmental policy and important regulatory decisions must continue to be based on sound science, not bumper stickers or emotional political appeals."
The Snyder administration recently announced an agreement with Enbridge to further study the potential of tunneling the pipeline beneath the Straits of Mackinac, among other provisions. Snyder is expected to make a decision on the future of Line 5 by August.
At the national level, advocates continue to monitor the declining costs of building renewable energy and how that is affected by low natural gas prices.
Even with a significant change in direction under the Trump administration — such as ending President Obama's Clean Power Plan and a proposal to give financial support to struggling coal and nuclear plants for the baseload qualities — Hofmeister said Consumers would not be directly affected by the changes.
Offering financial support to coal and nuclear plants wouldn't directly affect regulated assets like Consumers', and the utility is "already well-positioned to comply with our share of Michigan's (renewable energy) commitment," he said.
Longer term, Consumers — like utilities across the country — is rethinking the traditional utility business model of building large, centralized, capital-intensive power plants that run on fossil fuels.
"Our view is very different," he said. "Going forward, on the supply side of the electric business … we want to make sure we don't overbuild and build modular in nature to avoid major capital expenditures. We're very interested in how we can save our customers money by avoiding capital investments."

First Colony Swim Team (FCST) was well represented at the 2012 Open Water National Championships in Fort Myers, Florida on April 27th-29th. Daniel Graviss led the group with two top 8 finishes, placing 5th in the 5K and 8th in the 10K. This was a large improvement from last year's 12th place in the 5K and 43rd place in the 10K. The field included several professional swimmers, World Championship medalists, and 2012 Olympian Alex Meyer. Graviss' finish in the 5K has placed him on the USA Swimming National Junior Team for the 2012-2013 year. This is FCST's second swimmer in back to back years who has qualified for the National Junior Team.
Joining Daniel were teammates Corey Duke, Shelby Fruge, and Alicia Finnigan. All three swam the 5K, with Corey placing 21st, Shelby placing 39th, and Alicia placing 50th. In order to qualify for this USA Swimming National Championships, the athletes had to meet a time standard in either the 1000 or 1650 freestyle.

The Sandy Hook Elementary Building Task Force will not have a decision on the location of the new elementary school Friday night.
Sandy Hook Elementary School could end up in one of two locations. It will either be built on a lot on Riverside Road, not far from the existing school, or it will be rebuilt on the original site on Dickenson Drive.
The 28-member task force met Friday night to decide where to reopen the school.
The process has taken months. Numerous locations were considered by the special committee using the public's input. Will Rodgers, a committee member, told NBC Connecticut Friday afternoon that the panel will likely pick a site when it meets.
"I think it's probably going to be the existing site," Rodgers said.
He said he knows that won't make everyone happy.
"I will chain my body to it and to protest if they try to re-open it," Erica Lafferty told NBC Connecticut in an exclusive interview.
Lafferty's mother, Dawn Hochsprung, was the principal at Sandy Hook who lost her life running towards the shooter after he broke through the school's front door.
"It should be knocked down," Lafferty said. "There should be some type of long lasting memorial. I don't want people to walk into the building and say, oh well that's where Erica's mom got gunned down. That's not okay."
But for some, keeping Sandy Hook Elementary in the Sandy Hook section of town is important, even if that means using the same piece of property where 20 students and 6 educators were killed.
"Just tearing it down and building a new school in the same place is one of the solutions that would make the most sense," one Newtown parent said.
"It's going to be a wrenching process," Rodgers said. "There just aren't that many options for us. Starting with all these sites available in terms of acreage."
Sandy Hook students have been attending school at a temporary facility in neighboring Monroe. The First Selectman said their stay at Chalk Hill School can be extended until 2016.
The task force will hold another meeting on May 10th at 7 p.m.
