Today is Sunday, October 24th. We left Brunswick, Georgia, via Highway 17 and headed south for Florida. We're hoping we might be able to arrive in time for the last Space Shuttle launch, scheduled for November 1.

Within forty minutes of the time we left Brunswick we were at the Florida tourist info booth where we had a picnic lunch. Because it was Sunday we easily cruised through Jacksonville, notable for its rather austere, futuristic architecture. At Jacksonville we hooked up to Highway 1, in order to stay close to the coast.
An hour later we were setting up camp at Anastasia State Park near St. Augustine. We spent a couple of hours at the beautiful beach there, where a local was teaching us to body surf properly – dive into, but with the wave, just before it's about to crash. We got rolled around for awhile and then had to stop and rinse the fine film of salt and sand from our skins as we left the beach. The waves here are the biggest so far and the water is the greenest yet, although there were a few jellyfish.

Later we took a quick tour of the campground, and to our surprise and delight, spotted Massachusetts Maureen's motor home. She's the retired school teacher we had met earlier at Myrtle Beach. She's off to St. Petersburg in the morning so we enjoyed a few drinks around her campfire with her.
Our immediate neighbours at Anastasia Park turned out to be an interesting couple from just outside Toronto, Keith and Heather, who were on their way to Key West to celebrate their thirty-fourth wedding anniversary. They had two weeks to enjoy as much sunshine as they could so they had driven hard for two days to get here. It was their inaugural trip in their new-to-them motor home though, and it wasn't going so well.
Earlier, when they first pulled into camp, I noticed Keith with his head under the hood. I went to introduce myself. He had determined where the problem was. It was electrical and resulted in stuff not working inside the unit, – and it was draining the battery. He unhooked a couple of wires that he saw had been Mickey Mouse'd, and it seemed to do the trick.
The next morning he and Heather were all smiles as they climbed into the motor home, ready to go to the beach. Then it wouldn't start and the fob wouldn't unlock the ignition or the steering. They were faced with having to make what seemed to be the inevitable call to the Automobile Association; likely having to have the unit towed somewhere to be fixed. Prospects were looking good for having their day pretty well ruined.
There was nothing we could do for them so we headed into St. Augustine, the oldest city in America. It's a beautiful town with heavy Spanish influence in the architecture. Many of the narrow little side streets are closed to vehicular traffic, making it quiet and safe for roaming on foot. Janice and I decided to go our separate ways for an hour or so. She likes to follow the map and check out some of the shops. I prefer to wander aimlessly, taking pictures. We agreed to meet back at the truck in an hour.

When we got back to our RV Site I noticed a big ball of wiring and stuff sitting on Keith and Heather's picnic table. It was the security wiring from their motor home. Apparently, after we had departed for St. Augustine, Keith had decided that he might be able to save himself some grief by just ripping it all out. It ended up not only saving him grief but probably a lot of time and money too. Everything worked fine for him after that, and for that reason, they arrived back at camp from the beach in a good mood, asking us over for a drink. We replied in the affirmative, we'd be there in a few minutes, after we showered.
In the meantime, while exiting her shower, Heather was startled by a squirrel darting across the floor of the motor home. She tried to shoo it out but it ran up and under the dash. She assumed that it must have come in that way too and returned to what she was doing. Then Keith noticed the hole chewed through the screen door.
We were all guffawing about the outrageous series of unfortunate incidents that had befallen them when Keith went in to get another beer. He discovered one of the blinds had been destroyed and another hole had been chewed in a window screen on the other side of the unit, through which the dastardly little critter had undoubtedly made its escape.
We sat around in the evening's warmth, laughing a lot, mostly about their bad luck, and our good luck. We all drank too much before finally tucking into some burgers about ten o'clock.
Despite Keith having many physical maladies, some of which are quite debilitating, he is incredibly cavalier about it all. They are both easy, and funny, to be around. I asked Keith if he wanted to try some marijuana for his pain but he declined. He's already taking several kinds of prescription drugs for his conditions.
They were booked into Tomoka State Park near Daytona Beach for the next night, just an hour or so down the road, so we decided to rendezvous there.
Photo: Keith and Heather.
The next morning was sunny and hot so Janice and I took a bike ride around the park before packing up and hitting the road. We stopped at a Starbucks for iced coffee, and to check emails, stopping again for lunch on the roadside at Beverly Beach before carrying on to our destination.
Photo: Beverly Beach.
After getting set up at Tomoka State Park we gave Keith and Heather a ride to the beach, which was about three miles away from camp. We paid the $3 entrance fee so that we could drive onto and along the beach for about ten miles. That arrangement is nice because there's hardly any parking on the streets and you get to have all your gear with you – the truck provided shade and shelter from the wind. We all took a stroll down the beach and then Janice and I decided to get wet. It was Daytona Beach after all. The water was shallow though and the waves were big. We didn't want to get pounded so our swim turned into more of a dunk.
As it was Janice's birthday, she and I had planned to go out for dinner. We invited our new friends to join us but that's when we found out that Keith doesn't like a lot of different foods. He doesn't like any kind of seafood. He doesn't like stew, or anything else mixed together. If you mention Shepherd's Pie, for example, his face curls up like an old shoe and you can actually see his gag reflex. We learned to have fun with that in a hurry! We knew he would have been stuck for anything he might enjoy eating at a restaurant of our choosing so Janice and I set out alone to cruise the strip.
We ended up settling on Pho Saigon, a Vietnamese joint just off the strip in Daytona Beach. It had little ambience, which is usually a sign of mediocrity to me, but it was Janice's birthday so she got to choose. The food turned out to be excellent and the menu offered some items that we'd never tried. Before we were done, Janice had wrangled the recipe for Banh Xeo from the waiter. No doubt she'll be trying it on some unsuspecting souls in the near future – you know who you are.
Photo: Janice at the Vietnamese restaurant on her 52nd birthday, or, as she likes to say, "Twenty-six, on both sides." Later, back at the park, Janice and I sat outside and enjoyed a bottle of our favourite red wine.
Keith and Heather decided to take a motel room in Daytona Beach for the next night so that they could walk to one of their favourite old haunts, Crabby Jack's, on the pier. We agreed to meet them there the next day.
In the morning I unintentionally ran over a monstrous snake on the paved road about ten minutes from our campsite. The speed limit was 45 mph and the road was mottled with shade so I was on top of the snake before I even knew what it was. It had still been alive when I thump-thumped it because I saw it wriggling in the rearview mirror. Later I described it to The Ranger as being at least six feet long and light-ish in colour. He said that, because it's been dry here for so long, it would definitely be a rattle snake looking for water. It creeped me out all day – the thing was so big, and I had done it in.
Later, we met Keith and Heather at Crabby Jack's as agreed. It's a no-frills bar that occupies what has to be one of the most desirable locations for a drinking establishment anywhere. It's so rustic that, if you were to drop your credit card on the floor, it could easily slip between the cracks to the ocean thirty feet below. Pitchers of beer were only $6.50 and the pound of spicy garlic shrimp was also inexpensive, and delicious. Keith insisted on paying for the shrimp but he wouldn't get anywhere near eating one.
We gave Keith and Heather a ride back to their motel room and bid them farewell. We had a lot of fun with them. Back at the park we watched a movie Massachusetts Maureen had given us and tucked into one of Janice's Thai pizzas.

Today is the 28th of October. The shuttle launch is scheduled for just three days from now. We have actually planned ahead and booked ourselves into a park near Cape Canaveral for November 1. It would be very cool to see that last shuttle go off.
To kill time we've decided to head for Blue Springs near Warren, an hour or so inland, where the water is supposed to be crystal clear, apparently offering excellent swimming and snorkeling. If we're lucky we may get to see some manatees – yes, those gentle, gelatinous, giants of the sea.
We booked into Blue Springs State Park for two nights. It's not quite as humid here because its fifty miles inland, but it's still hot. The water at Blue Springs, on the St. John River, truly is crystal clear and so very inviting. The water's temperature, because it is spring fed, is a constant 72 degrees Fahrenheit, all year.
The snorkeling was good but the 72 degree water did become chilly after half an hour or so. We saw several fish species and a big dark snake that some kids had spotted under the wharf.
A thunder storm cooled the air off later but the bugs were too bad to sit outside.
The morning was sunny and warm so we went for a six-mile bike ride around the park trails before snorkeling the springs again. Later we cancelled the RV Park that we'd booked near Cape Canaveral because the shuttle has been delayed, again.
When we left Blue Springs State Park we headed for Kissimmee, near Orlando, ending up at the Aloha Campground, where several elders were hanging around in the shade near the front of the park. As we were setting up camp several of them came by, eager to introduce themselves; letting us know that there would be a community campfire at sundown. We said we'd see them there.
By late afternoon it was hot so we took our books to the pool. For me, a good read called The Brooklyn Follies by Paul Auster. For Janice, Spanish Made Simple. There had been a solar cover on the pool when we arrived but it had been removed for us after we'd enquired about pool use. No doubt, for those 'Crazy Canucks' who'll swim under any conditions.' When we entered the pool we looked at each other incredulously – the water was actually warmer than the air, which was about eighty-five degrees Fahrenheit.
The oldsters were still gathered, watching, perhaps wondering if we were really going to go through with getting wet under such chilly conditions. We did get wet, but it wasn't worth the time, so we went back to the RV and had cold showers.
There's an abundance of yellow and pink grapefruits growing on the trees in the park. Apparently they won't be ripe until January, but that didn't stop one of those watching us in the pool to offer up a couple of them.
We had a really good Crockpot rib dinner before heading for the communal fire. Along the way we noticed that the solar cover had been put back in place over the pool/soup pit. Unbelievable!
Everyone at the fire, but us, had been coming to the park for the past twelve or fourteen winters. Originally, most had been attracted to the reasonable rates. Now, having found themselves in a weird kind of time warp, they have come together and formed a loose sort of family, where they hang out together and look out for each other.
A guy named Ward continuously fed the fire as Bill, Sylvia, Janice, Gill and I were swapping 'How you got here stories.' It didn't take long for the talk to turn to health, and these people's general lack of it. Some of them were younger than me, but to a person, they all moved so slowly. The same people that I described earlier as elders were the same age as me!
Surely it didn't help that most of them had golf carts to get around the RV Park, which was level and no more than a couple of blocks square. When they weren't riding in those carts, and actually had to walk a few feet, they moved like true geriatrics.
In the morning, after eating one of the green grapefruits, which was actually quite juicy and delicious, we took off and ended up at the conveniently located Lucky Clover RV Park in Melbourne, back at the coast. It has a well-maintained pool that is about seventy-four degrees – just right. Cape Canaveral is only ten miles up the coast, and we got a great view of where they launch the shuttles when we took a drive to Cocoa Beach. We may or may not wait on the shuttle – it keeps getting pushed back and, anyway, people say you can see it from just about anywhere on the coast.
The pool has been providing a nice respite in the afternoon. When we first checked in I asked the caretaker why there was nobody in the pool. He said, "Because we're Floridians. If it gets below eighty degrees, I put my sweater on." He pointed to his sweater hanging over the seat of his golf cart just to show me that he wasn't kidding.
We've found the Lucky Clover RV Park to be central to lots of stuff so we decided to book another couple of days there. Today is Tuesday and the count-down to the launch has begun for 3:52pm tomorrow so, hopefully, we'll catch it after all.
My sister, Lisa's, husband BJ has a sister in Vero Beach, about an hour south of here. We'll probably stop there and visit them before heading for The Keys, where an old friend of mine from North Van, Robyn Rands (MacMillan), has been generous enough to invite us to stay a day or two at her boutique hotel in Key West. She's even found a place for us to drop the trailer while we're there.
We've been going for bike rides in the morning, scoping out the lay of the land and seeing what else is about. Today we were exploring a bit of the Intra Coastal Waterway. Basically it's an inland waterway that extends all the way fromMiamitoMaine. From there boaters navigate the Saint Lawrence Seaway, The Great Lakes, and the Mississippi River, back to The Gulf of Mexico. It's navigable by large yachts and, man, are there a lot of them down here in theSunshineState. Most people here mistakenly call it the Inter Coastal Waterway. That would mean it went coast-to-coast – so they're just plain wrong.
We drove to Sebastian Inlet State Park, checking out the over-saturated real estate market along the way. A really nice 3bd 2bth condo with a water view is about $150,000.00. Probably 20% of the recreational real estate here is for sale. We saw one condo advertised for $39,500. The temperature of the ocean here is currently eighty degrees and Vero Beach, about thirty miles down the coast is said to be the official start of the tropics.
Our bike ride on Wednesday morning took us to the Atlantic Ocean side of Melbourne where they've done a great job of keeping public beach access between almost every hotel or condo development. Where there are houses there is a path between every half dozen or so properties.
The damn space shuttle has been put off again. Apparently there is some kind of fuel problem. We can't wait any longer so we're taking off tomorrow. From the beach here you can see Cape Canaveral in the distance and people tell us that you can feel the ground rumble during the launch. It would have been fantastic weather for it too.
Janice made a delicious prawn salad for dinner. I was doing the dishes when a familiar smell drifted over from the trailer next to us. Janice suggested that I enquire of them if I might make a purchase. I said I still had a bit left from my encounter with Johnsee. She said, "Yes, but it may be presenting itself right here. We're probably not leaving the States for months now, so you might as well ask." The neighbour turned out to be very welcoming and was happy to be of help. The stuff here is not nearly the same quality as that in BC, which is kind of a pleasant change; like drinking wine instead of whiskey.
On our last day at Melbourne we awoke to pouring rain, which we haven't seen for weeks because Florida never got one drop in October. No rain for a month is very uncommon, because it usually pours every day for half an hour or so. Of course this delays the Space Shuttle so I guess we're just not destined to see it at all.
Janice made crab cakes and we sat out late enjoying the warmth of the tropical breeze that had blown the rain clouds away.
We made it to Southgate Village RV Park in Vero Beach about noon the next day. We should have been there an hour earlier but, we had lost the park owner's cell phone number and then we got lost because our GPS (Susan) couldn't cough up the address. We also encountered some wayfaring walkers getting drenched by rain. They were flagging us down for directions so we picked them up and delivered them to where they needed to go.
Judy and Ed, (BJ's sister and her husband) have a spacious and modern condo on a private golf course in Vero Beach. The weather had turned cold and rainy so, rather than golf, we sat on their covered deck for a couple of hours and swapped stories, mostly about Lisa and BJ.
We did lots of walking around Vero Beach, and then drove to Fort Pierce, killing time in the crappy weather, still holding out faint hope that the launch might go off on Friday. But, no, they had to hold it back for another crummy electrical problem. I'm starting to think they do this stuff on purpose. There are thousands of people who come to the area for the launch and, the more delays that NASA announces, the more the tourists hang around, continuing to spend their money. Just a theory.
Today is Saturday, sunny but cool. We'll follow Highway A1A, along the coast, heading for somewhere more southerly. Now I know why they claim thatVero Beachis the official start to the tropics. No sooner had we hit the road then, when I looked to my left, the ocean had turned all those beautiful shades of turquoise and green, making it undeniably tropical.
From West Palm Beach through Miami Beach the mansions are truly incredible. Many of them have the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Intra Coastal Waterway on the other – double waterfront, if you will. Fifty to one-hundred-fifty-foot yachts grace almost every slip in the front of each mansion, or is that the back? I never truly realized until now just how much money I don't have. The West Vancouver waterfront, in comparison to what we've just seen, would be the weak, crippled, little sister.
We spent the night at a below average, parking-lot style RV Park at Pompano Beach. Earlier in the afternoon we'd heard music playing in the distance so we got on our bikes and rode in that direction. It turned out to be a big Christian fall festival that covered ten acres or more. We had a quick ride around, listened briefly to the Christian rock band, but split within minutes, lest somebody attempted to engage us.
The next day, we proceeded south, through Fort Lauderdale, where traffic became heavy as we approached that shiniest of cities, Miami. The traffic snarl at Miami Beach turned out to be a blessing in disguise. It allowed us to spend half an hour inching along the main drag, where there was absolutely nowhere to park the rig. We gawked, guffawed and rubber-necked our way through the outlandish, freakish slice of humanity parading by. People-watching at Miami Beach is nothing short of eye-popping.
We reached Homestead, at the head of the Florida Keys, just after lunch. After setting up we decided to explore Key Biscayne National Park, about ten minutes away.
Driving to the park we noticed people pulled over to the side of the road and were trying to figure out why when suddenly a screaming roar ripped the air above, coming from our right. We barely had time to duck when one of the Flying Blue Angels shot by, three feet overhead – okay, maybe three hundred feet. We pulled over and were treated to the complete Flying Blue Angels show. Incredible. We hadn't known that the Homestead Air Show was being held that day, and our perfect seats were free.
Photos: A few moves provided by the Flying Blue Angels, that were the finale of a two-day air show at Homestead.
Photo: Miami, from Key Biscayne National Park, where there wasn't really that much to see, unless you're a scuba diver.
The next day we arrived in The Keys in less than ideal conditions because, while we could tell that the colours of the water would have been breathtaking under sunny skies, the cloud cover dulled the effect. Still, it is beautiful, if a little unearthly here. The waters are very shallow for miles around and there is no height of land over five or six feet.
We set up camp at Curry Hammock State Park, which has twice won The Best State Park in America award. We were very lucky to get our spot right on the water because the park is usually booked months ahead. We had gone online and been able to book it less than a week ahead due to a cancellation. Last night at a campfire on the beach we heard people complaining that they'd been coming here for seven years and had never been able to score a waterfront campsite.
In the evening we took a drive to the much photographed Seven-Mile-Bridge and then returned to the communal campfire at Curry Hammock.
Photo: The sunset from The Seven-Mile-Bridge near our campsite.
Cuba is just ninety miles from here. That fact raised the ire of one of the Floridians at the campfire, a retired dentist from Sarasota, when Janice asked about the 'Wet Foot/Dry Foot' rule that some people at the Seven-MileBridge had mentioned. Apparently this rule applies to the Cubans seeking refugee status. If they're caught with one foot in the water or on one of the bridges here, they can be deported. If they have both feet on terra firma, they're then treated as refugees.
The dentist replied aggressively, "Cuba is where all our problems come from. You let one in and pretty soon they have all their family here too."
Janice replied, "Well, it must be terrible to hate the place you live in so much that you'd risk your life to get away from it, leaving your family behind and getting onto a piece of plywood or an old car hood to attempt crossing such dangerous waters." The dentist's wife replied, "They don't hate it where they live, they just want a better life."
Surmising that they might still be cranky because we upstart Canadians had snatched their waterfront campsite, I shot back, "Duh!" and kicked sand in their faces.
Luckily for us, one of the other Floridians, who had been to Cuba in 1999, interjected, "North Americans need to go there to witness the complete and abstract poverty the Cubans are subjected to." While we appreciated his coming to our defense, I'm pretty sure the 'abstract' instead of 'abject' part, which he repeated a couple of times, kind of tore a hole in his argument as far as the dentist was concerned. It was effective enough though because it seemed to shut down the argument. Luckily, nobody wanted to challenge somebody who'd actually been there.
Today, Tuesday, we awoke to sunny skies and temperatures that were forecasted to reach back into the 80's so we decided to rent kayaks from the park office. The cost was reasonable enough at $21.00 for a two-person kayak for two hours. The water is shallow just about everywhere around here and the mangrove forests grow right to the water's edge, which makes for interesting critter watching. As we rounded the last little island, headed for home, we ran into a lot of pelicans, cormorants and a heron all perched within fifty feet of each other.
Photo: Tim about to get launched at Curry Hammock State Park.
Photo: Janice finding the end of the mangrove tunnel.
Later we went to Sombrero Beach at Marathon, where the swimming and snorkeling are excellent due to the firm sand and calm, clear water. It is somewhat cooler though than what we've been spoiled with lately, due to the Gulf Stream mixing with the cooler water of the Gulf of Mexico.
Back at camp we witnessed one of the most idyllic scenes we've encountered yet. The pastel sky, combined with the becalmed, mirrored the calm surface of the Atlantic. The atmosphere became imbued with the most peaceful light. It was like one might imagine heaven to be like. It wouldn't have surprised us if, in that moment, we were to hear angels softly singing. Later, Janice and I stayed at the campfire, stargazing, after the others had left.
Photo: Sombrero Beach.
Photo: Sunset at the beach right out front of our campsite at Curry Hammock State Park.
It was sunny in the morning so we went for a bike ride, checking out all the unaffordable real estate.
Thanks to my computer crashing we lost the blog from the next few days but I can say with confidence that they were some of the best days of our entire trip.
Robyn Rands, an old school friend that I hadn't seen for at least 30 years, along with her husband, Dale, owns the Southernmost Beachfront Hotel in Key West. They generously put us up in a deluxe waterfront room at the hotel, which occupies on the of the most spectacular settings imaginable. They even had the perfect spot for us to park the trailer.
Photo: The Southermost Beachfront Hotel in Key West.
After arriving at the hotel Dale took us all to an excellent lunch at the hotel's beachfront restaurant where he wouldn't let us pay for anything. After lunch, while Dale went back to work, Robyn took us for a walking tour of Key West. There are world championship power boat races being conducted around the peninsula so there was lots of excitement around town. On the way back down the strip we stopped at The Blue Heaven Bar, a famous haunt of Ernest Hemingway's and, reportedly, where he would often get into a not-so-friendly boxing match with anyone who opposed his opinions.

That evening we met Dale and Robyn at the pool bar and then went again to the hotel restaurant for dinner where, again, Dale wouldn't let us pay.

The next day Janice and I went for a bike ride around Key West.

In the afternoon Robyn took us paddle boarding.

In the evening Robyn and Dale cooked us dinner in their suite, along with a friend from New York, Eddie.

Photo: We had lobster and stone crab for dinner. The stone crab was a first for us and is now our favourite kind of crab. They're harvested by taking one claw and throwing them back. A new claw regenerates.
After dinner Janice and I hit the strip where I got to play cajon along with Kevin Bowes at a really cool little juke joint along the strip. A couple of titles of Kevin's tunes are Rasta Pasta and You Make the Money, which might give you an idea of the originality of his music. You can catch Kevin's music at www.kevinthomasbowes.com
The next morning we said our goodbyes to Dale and Robyn and then hit the road for Bahia Honda State Park, a place richly deserving of its title, Best State Park In America. Thank you so much Robyn and Dale. It was a fantastic stay and we would highly recommend the facilities there to anyone visiting The Keys.

After frolicking for a few hours at Bahia Honda we left the Florida Keys behind, spending the night at Homestead again, heading for Alligator Alley the next day…

While director Marc Webb clearly makes the story of Marvel Comics' iconic webslinger his own in "The Amazing Spider-Man," the filmmaker knew very well going into the project that like the previous movie installments featuring the character, connectivity with audience would be the key to the film's success.
"Right from the very beginning when I talked with the studio, I stressed that it was really important to establish a real, genuine connection between the audience and the characters," Webb told me in a recent interview. "That can only happen though finding the humanity in those characters and finding them relatable."
The relatable factor, in fact, is why Webb, 37, believes the character has resonated with people for so long. After all, most people have been in Peter Parker's shoes at one time or another, and for younger audience members, they'll get there soon enough.
"If you look at all the comic book characters out there, Peter Parker in 'Spider-Man' is really the most relatable superhero there is, or at least alter-ego of a superhero," Webb observed. "He's not an alien and he's not a billionaire -- he's a kid. And it's the nature of him in comics that makes him relatable to so many people."
"So what was exciting for me at the very beginning of the project was finding that dimension, and the chemistry between Peter and Gwen, and Peter and Aunt May -- that domestic quality, that takes up the lion's share of the beginning of the movie. It was really a big priority for me to establish that," Webb added. "The action is meaningless unless you care about the person in the suit."
"The Amazing Spider-Man" stars Andrew Garfield as Peter, a science whiz outcast who grows up with his Uncle Ben (Martin Sheen) and Aunt May (Sally Field) after his parents mysteriously abandoned him when he was a 7-year-old boy.
Discovering a clue to the disappearance that involves his scientist father (Campbell Scott) and former research partner, Dr. Curt Connors (Rhys Ifans), Peter finds access to Connors' lab at OsCorp, where he is fatefully bitten by a genetically-altered spider. Assuming the characteristics of the creature and eventually dubbing himself "Spider-Man," Peter finds himself on a collision course with Connors, whose experiments will turn him into the powerful foe the Lizard.
Opening in theaters in 2D, 3D and on IMAX screens Tuesday, the film also stars Emma Stone as Peter's girlfriend and confidant Gwen Stacy, and Denis Leary as her police captain father George Stacy.
Sticky Proposition
Although he's blessed with the last name of Webb, taking the helm of a billion-dollar franchise like "Spider-Man" could land any filmmaker in a tangled mess, considering the mark original trilogy director Sam Raimi made with star Tobey Maguire.
To succeed, Webb felt that his approach had to come from an area of respect. Instead of ignoring the history of Raimi's films, Webb embraced them.

PI new data notification Emails
Gemini PIs are used to receiving an email from the Gemini Science Archive when a PI data package has been created. Additionally, We now have the capability to send automatic emails in the morning following observing to notify PIs and/or Co-Is that new data were taken for their program.
In the future, this functionality will be assumed by the Gemini Science Archive, but in the interim we are providing this facility via our internal data handling systems. This means that the system is not connected to the "Notify PI" check-box in the OT, and email notifications must be configured by a Gemini science staff member.
If you would like nightly email notification of new data for your program, please contact your Contact Scientist to request this. You may supply additional email addresses that you would like on the notification list for your program. In addition, you may choose to get notifications only when science data is taken, or when any data for your program are taken (i.e. this will include day-time calibrations, etc).
Email notifications for data taken during the night go out at 8:00am in the morning following the observing night. The email contains a summary table of all the relevant data files.
These Emails are triggered purely on the presence of data files from night time observing. These data will not generally have been Quality Assessed, or their metadata validated, at the time the Email notifications go out. Data Quality and FITS header information in these files will be updated as QA proceeds. Data should be retrieved from the Gemini Science Archive in the normal manner, and PI package emails will continue to be sent by the GSA in the usual way.

Kristen Amore shows off her new shorter style hairdo. Several Schwarting and Packard students and a Plainedge parent are sporting considerably shorter hairdo's this month after donating 8" of their hair to make wigs for children who have lost their hair. After hearing about the program called "Locks of Love" from a flyer sent home by the Schwarting Student Council, Lauren Murphy and Katelyn Wasserman from Schwarting School, Kristin Amore and Mary Zen from Packard, and parent Diane Roverto decided to take the plunge. At least one of the students was inspired by the illness of a friend, and the other girls because they wanted to help children who were sick. They bravely came to the Maximus Hair Salon in Merrick on January 15, their day off from school, where hair stylists twisted their hair into a pony tail, then cut and styled their new bob. The hair salon provided the service free of charge. "Locks of Love," a not-for-profit corporation that makes hairpieces for children with medical hair loss, was coordinated by Schwarting Student Council Advisor Donna Pessah, a one-woman dynamo who admits to being "good on the phone." She helped to get the word out around the community, and worked with a Schwarting teacher to enlist the cooperation of the hair salon. "We re fortunate to have such a talented, dynamic, good-hearted parent as one of the leaders of the Student Council- She's a wonderful role model tor children in demonstrating the value of giving to others," said Schwarting Principal Jeffrey Soloff BETHPAGE STUDENT IS NEW YORK STATE WINNER IN VFW'S NATIONAL "YOUTH ESSA Y" CONTEST MCUOKAL JUSTIN PINTUCCI (shown above), an eighth-grade student in LaSalle Regional School in Bethpage, has been declared the first-place winner in New York State in the VFW's National Youth Essay Contest!

Justin is now competing with one winner from each State for the VFW's National First Prize, which is a $10,000 U. S. Savings Bond! There were almost 500 students from eight schools in the Bethpage area participating in this year's Youth Essay Competition, which is open to students from Fifth Grade up Justin, like many other student participants, has entered the competition for several years This year's theme, on which all students wrote their essays, was "What Does It Mean To Be Patriotic?" The program is an annual event, sponsored at the Post level by Bethpage's Butehorn Brothers VFW Post 4987, and it coincides with the perhaps better-known Voice of Democracy program It is a truly remarkable achievement for any student to write an essay considered to be the best among the many, many thousands submitted state-wide, and the officers and members of Buiehom Brothers Post 4987, Veterans of Foreign WArs of the U S., are prcud that a Bethpage student, sponsored by our Post, has achieved this high honor and is actually "Going for the Gold " Good luck Justir I Ernest Warnken PPC

Good Feeling: (Sick Individuals Remix)
Flo Rida
Flo Rida, unsurprisingly a native Floridian, is an MC who toured as a teenager with 2 Live Crew's Fresh Kid Ice and began popping up on high-profile mixtapes by 2006, most notably DJ Khaled's We the Best -- on "Bitch I'm from Dade County," he appeared with the likes of Rick Ross, Trick Daddy, Trina, and Dre (of Cool & Dre). Signed to the Atlantic-distributed Poe Boy that year, he recorded Mail on Sunday, which was released in March of 2008. "Low," featuring T-Pain, was the album's lead single; it reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100. A year later he returned with the album R.O.O.T.S. (Route of Overcoming the Struggle), featuring the massive club hit "Round." Only 1 Flo, Pt. 1 appeared in 2010 with some tracks produced by dance music star David Guetta. On his 2012 release, Wild Ones, productions from Dr. Luke, Avicii, and Axwell would continue along this dance direction, with the album offering up two big hits, "Whistle" and "Good Feeling." ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi

Perfumes touch our deepest emotions and must reflect our true spirit. What we wear, how we wear it, and where we wear it says everything about us. A perfume should be as individual as the person who wears it and now you have the opportunity to enjoy the luxury of creating your very own unique fragrance, just like the stars and famous fragrance houses!
You will enjoy a perfume consultation with a trained perfume expert - you will begin your experience by learning a little about the construction of perfumes including why some scents last longer than others and why perfumes change throughout the day. This knowledge will then be used to help you construct your fragrance. Design your own fragrance - when you understand a little more, you'll begin to undertake the really exciting part of your experience, the design of your fragrance. Your signature blend will be formed from your choice of 18 exquisite blends. You can include as many as you want to. Each blend has been designed by a master perfumer famed for creating many of the fragrances that sell from high street shelves. Each blend is sourced from the finest ingredients from around the globe, including night-blooming jasmine from Africa, exotic spices from the Orient and the rich, aromatic and sensual vanilla from Southern France. Every care has been taken to ensure that the very best ingredients go into making your fragrance Bottling your fragrance - having designed a fragrance, it's time to make it up. The perfume for you to take home will be made up there and then, so there is no waiting, you can wear your creation immediately. Your consultant will give you a choice of 20ml bottles and then blend it for you in front of your eyes. Naming your fragrance - finally, the most important part of your experience, naming your unique signature fragrance. Every great scent has a name and so should yours. After the event, you will receive a certificate that includes the name of your fragrance and its ingredients for when you are ready for a top-up. As well as receiving your 20ml atomiser and certificate, you'll have the opportunity to purchase other products such as diamante atomisers, bath and body oils, body milk or even a body scrub, all infused with your unique fragrance.

Stargate Fail, say it ain't so! (I thought about putting this on fandom_lounge, but let's face it, this isn't even remotely funny. Unless maybe in the kind of, "I laugh lest I cry" way.)2009 sure seems to be the Year of Fail. The writers of Stargate aren't exactly famous for their social awareness and political correctness, what with all the unintentional moral ambiguity in their shows (rape is funny, dontcha know!), but they sure topped themselves with their latest Stargate: Universe casting call for the episode "Sabotage".[ELEANOR PERRY] (35-40) and quite attractive. A brilliant scientist who happens to be a quadriplegic. Affected since childhood, her disability has rendered her body physically useless. However, after being brought on board the Destiny as the only person who may be able to save the ship and her crew from certain annihilation, she is given temporary powers that enable her to walk again and to finally experience intimacy.sptv050769..Strong guest lead. NAMES PREFERRED. ACTRESS MUST BE PHYSICALLY THIN. (THINK CALISTA FLOCKHART).SourceYeeaaaah. The sexism aside, it's nice of them to include a disabled person in their cast, isn't it? Though God forbid they should actually treat the disability in any sane manner. No, let's just Magically Heal It, so she can finally be socially acceptable and experience intimacy! For the first time in her life! OMG.Apparently there are also rumous that the Magic Healing will happen through body-swapping technology, which raises some very valid questions about how exactly she will lose her virginity. Personally, since this is all forum talk, I'm hoping it won't be as skeevy as it sounds, but knowing the writers, I'm not holding my breath.Also, Ming-Na, whose character is gay, posts on her Twitter: Just read "Sabotage." Wow. SGU is really challenging my acting chops! I LOVE our writers! Can't wait 2 work on this episode! xoxo Which, you know. Doesn't sound promising, but who knows, might be a coincidence!These shenanigans have raised a bit of a reaction amongst the fans. sheafrotherdon has a post up listing several contacts if people feel like raising a fuss about this. I sure do.BA Haller @ Media Dis & Dat wrote about it.dogeared contacted the Disability Rights Education & Defense Fund and got a reply from executive director Susan Henderson, agreeing that it's distressing, and indicating that they'd like to follow the trail.ETA: This just keeps getting unfunnier and unfunnier. The rumours have been confirmed that Eleanor indeed does switch bodies with the gay character, and proceeds to HAVE SEX IN THAT BODY. STRAIGHT SEX.I can't even.sheafrotherdon has more on this latest bit of news.

Alert seller that you wish to chat
Most sellers will only want to be called to chat if you have serious interest in making a purchase from them. If you have a general question that is not time-sensitive, you might just want to send the seller a message.
Please describe what you'd like to chat with the seller about (required):
What message would you like to send to the seller?
Oops! Something went wrong
There was an error summoning the seller to this booth. Perhaps you have exceeded your limit of emails sent for the day?
Your request has been sent!
A notification has been sent to Murph9 about your wish to chat with them. If they are available, they should be around within 5-10 minutes.
If they aren't around, they will probably respond to your inquiry over email once they're available.
Paste Item Into Chat
You can use this window to paste an item from the current seller's booth into their chat window. Just enter the item ID (see right picture) of the item you wish to paste into chat:
Note that you can paste an item into chat without using this dialog box if you type "@item [item number]" into the chat text box. For example, entering "I like this item @item 1234" would paste the item with ID 1234 into the chat box, after your chat text, assuming item #1234 was a "for sale" item in the booth you entered that line.

Client: Private Equity Firm
Challenge: Appraise Assets of Acquired Company for Financial Reporting in Accordance with Revised FASB Standards
When the founder of one of the country's larger suppliers of liquid asphalt wanted to sell the company he had established six decades earlier, the business was sold to a large private equity firm for $17-plus million. The new owners engaged AccuVal to appraise the assets of the acquired company for financial reporting. Standards adopted in recent years by the Financial Accounting Standards Board required the use of new methods to account for business combinations, goodwill and other intangible assets.
Using a discounted cash flow model, AccuVal conducted an analysis of the acquired company's tangible and intangible assets. The firm developed documentation to support a valuation of approximately $12 million for the land, buildings, machinery and equipment that were included in the sale. For the intangibles – factors that included customer relationships that drove sales at the company's headquarters facility and large terminals; contract agreements; trademarks and brand equity – AccuVal identified an additional $5 million in value and provided the necessary documentation to support the findings.
With AccuVal's appraisal, the acquiring firm filed its required financial report in a timely fashion. The client was so pleased with AccuVal's work product and responsiveness that it quickly engaged the firm to complete three subsequent assignments.
Detailed knowledge of inventory, machinery, real estate and intangible assets. Leadership to help customers simultaneously fund transactions and address financial reporting requirements. The knowledge and experience to assemble and accurately interpret information from disparate reports and multi-national sources. Ability to meet aggressive deadlines. That's The AccuVal AdVantage™ at work.

Around the world at least one woman in every three has been beaten, coerced into sex, or otherwise abused in her lifetime. Increasingly, violence against women is recognized as a major public health concern and a violation of human rights. The effects of violence can be devastating to a woman's reproductive health as well as to other aspects of her physical and mental well-being, as violent intimate partner relationships make women vulnerable to HIV and other sexually transmitted infections.
Our resources include reports and articles on violence against women and its impact on women's health and rights.

At the 2010 North American International Auto Show, electric and hybrid vehicles grabbed the headlines. Fast-forward three years, and electric vehicles played a minor role at the Detroit event that saw performance and luxury vehicles steal the spotlight.
"The non-issue of this show is that no one's talking about electric," observed Dennis DesRosiers, industry analyst. "The fact of the matter is electric is an infant technology that probably won't have any significant, true momentum in our industry for at least another decade and more likely two."
DesRosiers's view is reflected in a recent KPMG survey of 200 senior automotive executives around the globe that found electric vehicles won't make up more than 15 per cent of worldwide sales before 2025.
It also indicated that automakers plan to spend most of their research and development dollars on improving the internal combustion engine.
"The economics of EVs are not there," said Gary Silberg, national automotive industry leader for KPMG LLP. "They're very expensive, and for the most part, the consumer has so many other choices. It's difficult for them to choose an EV when they could buy a hybrid or gasoline engine vehicle for less money and better performance."
The Chevy Volt compact sedan, for example, starts at $42,000 (minus the $8,231 Ontario government rebate) while a fully loaded, top-of-the line Toyota Corolla sells for about $25,000.
Electric vehicle sales are rising, but not enough to distract automakers from the internal combustion engine. In 2011, U.S. car buyers took home about 17,500 plug-in electric cars.
Last year, that number rose to 53,000 electric vehicles.
"The internal combustion engine has a long way to go," said Dave Buckingham, chief operating officer at Chrysler Canada. "There's no doubt we continue to get more miles per gallon. When you look at the Jeep Grand Cherokee we just launched with the 3.6-litre Pentastar engine that now gets 36 miles per gallon because it's mated to an eight-speed transmission. That's a 10-per-cent fuel-economy improvement."
At Ford Motor Co., electric vehicles will continue to be part of the auto-maker's product portfolio although its focus remains on improving traditional powertrains, said Richard Truett, powertrain communications manager.
"For the foreseeable future, the internal combustion engine will stick around," said Truett. "It's getting more and more efficient, but there's not one answer for every consumer. Our strategy is to make all these different types of powertrains and make them so whatever powertrain you want, you can choose for yourself."
However, "for the foreseeable future the gasoline engine will continue to be the engine of choice," he said. Ford's "mission is to reduce the size of the engine" without sacrificing performance.
"When the gasoline engine improves, it makes it harder for the electrified vehicles to compete," added Truett. "But electric technology is moving very quickly, and there could be a breakthrough tomorrow that we have a battery that delivers 500 miles of range."
Reid Bigland, Chrysler Canada CEO and head of U.S. sales, said carmakers have to stay in the electric-vehicle segment to meet increasingly stringent fuel-economy standards.
"There needs to be an element of electrification in all OEMs' product plan. Call it a regulatory railroad, because there is no way to get there without electrification," he said.
In the meantime, "more efficiencies will be run from the internal combustion engine," said Bigland.
"In the compact-car world, 40 is the new 30. Ten years ago, 30 miles per gallon was OK on a compact car. Now you have to pretty much have a 40-mile-per-gallon offering on an internal combustion engine."
