Coachella towers over other competitors on the top grossing festivals list
Undoubtedly known as one of the leading festivals across the face of the Americas, Coachella rise to the top has not only been the story of its rising fame but also one of a heavy grossing festival. And if Concert Industry's one of a kind trade magazine Pollstar is to be consulted, Coachella has more or less – like this year – dominated the rankings for the past few years – with the only exception being that of the 2016 rankings. The California based festival was rated above the likes of Outside Lands and Sao Paulo Trip and is one of the three California based festivals which make the cut among the top 5 on the 20-festival list – hinting at California's tag as one of world's prime entertainment stages.
What's more is that Coachella has absolutely bewildered fellow competitors with a staggering Gross of $114,593,000 which towers high above the comparatively low Gross figures of Outside Lands' $27 M and Sao Paulo Trip's $17 M. This year's Coachella festival would be looking to further push those figures although they can take a relaxed outlook when it comes to competition from fellow competitors. To check out this year's Coachella line-up, head over to our report here.

Before 1999 West Coast College consisted of several small satellites, which were then merged and officially declared as an FET College in 2002.
West Coast College was the last FET College to be formed in the Western Cape. Unlike other colleges that were formed around the hub of an existing technical college, its systems had to be established from scratch and today the college consists of five campuses. Central Office moved during 2015, in that same year the college officially changed from the name of FET college to TVET college

The Vredendal Campus was started in 1997 and in September 1998 the campus moved to bigger buildings, due to the rapid growth of students.
In the first year of NC(V) implementation in 2007, West Coast College managed to register more students than the required target of 622 and managed to implement all the required programmes. West Coast College is now one of the biggest colleges in terms of the NC(V) intake.
The college has continued to expand its courses and total student numbers projected for 2017 is 9 435.

The Bernese dog is one of the largest dog breeds. This breed is one of the four main alpine herding breeds that belong to Switzerland. You need to take special care of the food habits if you have just adopted a Bernese puppy. If you want them to grow up strong and big, then you must ensure to provide the puppy with all the essential nutrients like protein, calcium and vitamins. Just like humans, puppies too need a proper diet to make sure that their digestive, immunity and other systems work properly. Here is the list of best food for Bernese mountain dog puppy that must give to your dog
Best Foods for Your Bernese Puppy
You must give them proper foods to make sure better growth and development. Some of the foods you can provide are:
Chicken Meat for Protein
Lean meat is essential for the Bernese dog puppies. Thus, chicken meat is essential for them as it is one of the main sources of protein. Also, it is a great energy source without providing a huge calorie count. Chicken meat will also help your puppy to gain lean muscle mass for healthier body. The chicken meats also contain Omega 6 fatty acids that can help your puppy to have shiny coats and healthy skin.
Yogurt for Calcium

So, it is important to provide them with low or non-fat plain yogurt. Yogurt also provides probiotic benefits along with calcium for stronger bones. Do not give flavored yogurts to your puppies or any yogurts that contain high amount of sugar.
Broccoli for Better Immunity System
Dogs are often prone to infections and skin problems. Thus, it is important to improve their immunity system by providing broccoli. Broccoli is quite beneficial for puppies as they have anti-cancer effects and also helps in metabolism. Besides all these, it can help the dogs to fight against infections, heart problems and skin diseases. Both cooked and raw broccoli is good for your dog. But boiled one will be easier to feed for your puppy.
Apples for Vitamins
Vitamins are also essential for your Bernese mountain puppy. Well, apple can be the best source for Vitamin A and C along with dietary fibers for the puppy. It is healthy and low calorie that can keep the teeth of your puppy clean too. Vitamins can help to reduce flakiness of skin and encourage healthier and glossier coats of your puppies.

When the puppies get the balanced diet, not only their systems work properly but also their skin and bones improve. There will be an overall growth and development. Thus, it is important to include all these above foods in their everyday diet. Puppies need vitamins, proteins and calcium every day to grow stronger and better.

text: A Greek court ruled that three squats - including City Plaza - must be evacuated [Kelly Lee Lunde/Al Jazeera] Hundreds of Greek protesters and refugees have demonstrated in Athens to voice opposition to a court's ruling to empty out squats, several of which provide residence to refugees and migrants. Marching from the City Plaza refugee squat in central Athens, around 700 people made the trek to the Ministry of Migration building in the capital's Klafthmonos Square on Friday. WATCH: Greece urged to not send refugees back to Turkey (2:40) They chanted in support of squats and their residents, carrying signs that read "City Plaza is our home" and "Hands off squats". Solidarity demonstrations were also staged in cities across Europe, including in Germany, Austria, and Belgium. Many of the rallies were held in front of Greek embassies. Earlier this month, a Greek court ruled that three squats - including City Plaza, the largest of its kind - must be evacuated. The other two buildings slated for eviction are Papouchadiko and Zoodochou Pigis 119. Aliki Papahela, the owner of the Hotel City Plaza building, which sat empty in the capital for six years after the business shuttered in 2010, had filed appeals for its evacuation in court. "This attack, in general, is against the [refugee solidarity] movement," said Nasim Lomani, a 36-year-old member of the Solidarity Initiative for Political and Economic Refugees, arguing that the measure will leave the squat's more than 400 residents without accommodation. "There are more or less 4,000 empty buildings in the city," said Lomani, who fled his native Afghanistan as a child and came to Greece more than two decades ago. "They could use them [to house refugees]." READ MORE: Greek leftists turn deserted hotel into refugee homes Founded in April 2016, when activists occupied the building, the City Plaza squat offers space for families to live in hotel rooms and access to refugee-run and activist-administered healthcare, education and dining, among other services. Most residents play a role according to their own abilities. The squat boasts of providing temporary housing for more than 1,500 people, many of whom have now moved on to residences in Greece or elsewhere in Europe, throughout the last year. City Plaza is organised on principles of self-administration and direct democracy. Activists and refugees make decisions about their activities by reaching general consensus through discussion and debate. 'Feeling like they aren't humans anymore' Activists argue that City Plaza and other squats like it provide an alternative to the decrepit conditions in camps, where asylum seekers struggle with overcrowding, a lack of resources and scarce access to quality healthcare, among other problems. Referring to living conditions in camps, Lomani said: "They [the government] managed to [make the refugees] feel like they aren't humans anymore." The Greek Ministry of Interior did not reply to Al Jazeera's requests for comments on the squat's pending eviction. READ MORE: Greek anarchists organise for refugees as 'state fails' Athens Mayor Giorgos Kaminis has called on the government to empty squats for refugees and migrants, arguing that the refugee crisis "does not legitimise anyone occupying arbitrarily public or private buildings to house those persons". In an open letter to Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, Kaminis claimed the conditions in squats are "as poor or worse" than camps. In March 2016, the European Union and Turkey struck a deal to stem the flow of refugees and migrants from Turkey. That deal allows Greece to deport people who arrived after March 20 of last year back to Turkey, where they can apply for relocation to Europe. The agreement resulted in more than 60,000 refugees and migrants being stuck in limbo in Greece. Hotbed of solidarity activism Several of the city's dozens of squats are situated in Exarchia, a predominantly anarchist and leftist neighbourhood that has become a hotbed of refugee solidarity activism since the crisis exploded two years ago. In addition to refugee squats and others like them that provide residence for anarchists and other activists, activist-administered social centres and soup kitchens are dotted throughout the city. READ MORE: Why some refugees in Greece are being driven to suicide Greek activists have held mass demonstrations in solidarity with refugees and migrants, calling for the closure of camps and the full integration of asylum seekers into society and the economy at large. On March 19 of this year - the one-year anniversary of the EU-Turkey deal - thousands of Greeks and refugees took to the streets in Athens and elsewhere against that agreement and called for an overhaul of the EU's migration policies. Syriza's about-face After the left-wing Syriza party took power in January 2015, the government promised to radically overhaul Greece's immigration policies by providing citizenship to second-generation migrants born in the country and closing migrant detention centres. Yet the ruling party's ostensible reversal on these promises has bred widespread discontent among solidarity campaigners. The Syriza-led government was largely standoffish towards squats when the refugee crisis exploded, but it has taken an increasingly harsh stance in the last year, carrying out a spate of evictions. Before sunrise on March 13, Greek police raided a pair of squats in Athens - one that provided housing for refugees, another that was inhabited by anarchist activists. Around 200 people were detained for several hours. Last July, police stormed and emptied three squats in the northern city of Thessaloniki, briefly detaining dozens of activists and refugees. OPINION: Martyr on the Mediterranean - Athens' double crisis In April 2016, police on the island of Lesbos surrounded and raided the No Borders Kitchen squat, a social centre for asylum seekers stuck on the island. Hundreds of activists and asylum seekers were arrested, and bulldozers ploughed through the squat and left only rubble in their wake. Petros Constantinou, the national director of the anti-racist group Keerfa and a city councillor in Athens, estimates that the capital's dozens of squats provide residence for around 2,500 refugees and migrants. "They cannot evacuate them," he told Al Jazeera by telephone, accusing Syriza's leadership of appeasing right-wing groups by clamping down on squats. "Many of the councillors in Syriza - not the municipality - support these occupations." Constantinou added: "The reality is that they cannot impose open suppression ... What is real is the disgusting policy against the refugees, and so many people are disgusted by Syriza opening detention centres and isolating refugees in camps."

Upon buying your travel insurance, usually you will check out for the most common covers, such as medical cover, cancellation cover, injury and accidents, etcetera. However you might want to check out other less-obvious extras offered by your travel insurance package as well, such as but not limited to:
Evacuation insurance, covers the cost of getting you to a place where you can receive appropriate medical treatment in the event of an emergency. (In the worst-case scenario, this can mean a medically equipped — and incredibly expensive — private jet.) This is usually not covered by regular medical insurance. Sometimes this coverage can get you home after an accident, but more often, it'll just get you as far as the nearest major hospital. "Medical repatriation" — that is, getting you all the way home — is likely to be covered only if it's considered medically necessary. Ask your insurer exactly what's covered before and after you get to the hospital.
Keep in mind that medical and evacuation insurance may not cover you if you're participating in an activity your insurer considers to be dangerous (such as skydiving, bungee jumping, scuba diving, or even skiing). Some companies sell supplementary adventure sports coverage.
Baggage insurance is included in most comprehensive policies, but it's rare to buy it separately. Baggage insurance puts a strict cap on reimbursement for such items as jewelry, eyewear, electronics, and photographic equipment — read the fine print. If you check your baggage for a flight, it's already covered by the airline (check with your airline for its luggage liability limit; if you have particularly valuable luggage, you can buy supplemental "excess valuation" insurance directly from the airline). Check if your homeowners' or renters' insurance covers baggage (with a "floater" supplement, if necessary, for international travel) — it may be cheaper, and you'll have coverage even after your trip. Travelers' baggage insurance will cover the deductibles and items excluded from your homeowners' policy. Double-check the particulars with your agent. If your policy doesn't cover railpasses, consider buying the $14–18 insurance deal sold with the pass.
Flight insurance (crash coverage) is a statistical rip-off that heirs love. It's basically a life insurance policy that covers you when you're on the airplane. Since plane crashes are so rare, there's little sense in spending money on this insurance.
Collision coverage for rental cars — may be included in some comprehensive travel insurance plans or available as an upgrade on others.

Apartheid, Relationships Explored in Falcon's "Master Harold...and the Boys"
In a small South African tea shop in 1950, two black men and a white boy joke and dance together, defying the brutalities of apartheid through their joyous love.
But issues of family, race, and power are just below the surface and a phone call triggers catastrophe in Athol Fugard's searing Pulitzer Prize-winning drama Master Harold…and the Boys, onstage at Falcon Theatre in Newport from May 5 through May 20.
More than half-a-century later and half a world away, the issues are as relevant as ever, says Ted Weil, the drama's director and Falcon co-founder. "It's a universal statement about racial relations even though it's specifically set against apartheid."
Watch for top performances from two of the area's best actors – Ken Early and Deondra Means as "...the boys," the contemptuous view of the apartheid white society toward blacks, while privileged teen Hally (Rupert Means) is 'the master.'
Early takes the pivotal role of Sam, mentor to Halie. Local audiences have seen him in starring roles at Ensemble, Know and Cincinnati Shakespeare and in films including Miles Ahead. His Equity performance is supported by a Theatre Artists Project (TAP) Fund grant.
Weil says he immediately saw Early in the role and wanted to be the one to direct him. "I knew he'd bring a particularly nuanced approach. Ken and I have known each other for many, many years so it's a real joy to have this opportunity to work with him on such a powerful, important piece of theater."
Falcon's home is a tiny storefront space in downtown Newport and Weil sees the intimacy as an advantage for chamber drama that packs an emotional punch.
"There's nowhere to hide on our little stage. Everything has to be completely real because the audience is right there with you. You just can't fake anything because it shows. Your acting has to be completely honest…and when it is, in a small space, it's truly spectacular."
Collaboration is always the foundation of theater, but, Weil adds, "As a white man, it's especially important to me that this process be collaborative. I'm relying on Ken and Deondra to make sure I don't tip anything into melodrama and also don't short-change anything significant. I truly believe this is a play that is told from both points of view - Hally's and Sam's - so collaborating with all three actors to ensure we tell all their stories on stage is essential."
Weil wants Master Harold… to stay with the audience after they leave the theater. "I want people to wonder what happens tomorrow in the world of the play. We don't know if Hally and Sam will fix the rift between them and that's a question we want to leave unanswered. More deeply, I want everyone to see the parallels between apartheid South Africa and every other place and time in our world where oppression exists.
"That's a tall order, but this play reaches so much farther than the shores of South Africa. I would love for that to resonate with our audiences the way it has with me."
Master Harold…and the Boys, May 5-20. Falcon Theatre, 636 Monmouth St., Newport. All performances at 8 p.m. Tickets $20, $15 students (with ID.) Plus service fee. $5 discount on Thursdays. 513-479-6783 and here.

-Birthday Parties-- How Our Session Birthday Parties Work
1. Choose a regular session you want to have your party and reserve a 1/2 hour time for cake and ice cream.
2. Invite guests to arrive at least 30 minutes prior to when you plan to serve cake--your reservation time.
Heaven forbid! If you are late --LIFE Happens! :) , or need to wait for guests. We will gladly do all we can to find a reservation time later in that session and fit you in. We want EVERYONE happy! So, if you are not ready by 30 minutes prior to your party, OKAY! -- We will cancel your reservation and work on the next birthday reservation, then fit you in just as soon as it all works--if possible BEFORE the session ends.
3. At initial arrival: Pay your Minimum Party Fee.
- Confirm counts and pay the balance at least 30 minutes before your party reservation.
- Your party admission allows guests to skate the entire session.
- Option: Add food or other items to your birthday "tab". We recommend having us serve these at a time other than your actual party time when you have cake and ice cream and open gifts.
- Idea: Add a hot dog
- Idea: Add pizza (Deluxe 11", 17 oz, $7.50 ea. Pepperoni or Cheese)
- Or any other snack bar item.
Minimum Party Fee: Session price + $2 each for a minimum of 10 people. Cash only. ATM on site.
4. Guests check in at the front ticket counter as they arrive and tell us whose birthday party they are attending. We prefer that the person in charge of the party do this but will accept the child's word for this as they come in the door. At this time we will:
- collect gifts and store them,
- hand the guest a ticket or tickets as appropriate for admission and/or rollerblades
- keep track of guest fees due (admission-with-treats, treats only, admission only, additional rollerblade fee, etc.).
5. Guests continue inside and present their ticket to the skate counter to get skates.
6. Put coats, shoes, and personal items in coat/shoe/locker area. These are not allowed in birthday party or snack bar area-- Holy-Moly, it is just TOO busy there.
Idea! Bringing the kids with you? Bring a big bag and put all the kids shoes and stuff in it. Put in the car or 1-2 lockers and then bring back out when time to go.
7. Host leaves all party items at front counter:
- Gifts, cake, napkins, decorations, goodie bags etc. are to be left at the front counter where we put them in a designated place for your party until it is time for use (unless you prefer to bring them inside at treat time).
- You bring: Cake or cupcakes, birthday plates/napkins (if you want your own theme). (No other food, snack or drink items allowed. You may purchase additional items from our snack bar.)
- We supply: cake cutter, placemat, colored plate (if you want), white napkin (if you want), sm. drink in a clear cup with a lid and straw, meadow gold soft serve ice cream in a small white cup with spoon.
- We have a storage rack, refrigerator and freezer for storing your items.
- Please don't bring confetti, piñatas, or loose balloons, as they are a skating hazard.
- Goodie bags for the kids to take home: We will store these for you. Please hand these out only as the kids are leaving the rink.
8. Confirm Count to Serve: At least 30 minutes prior to the party's reserved time, come to the front counter and confirm count of guests and fees with us and pay any remaining balance so we can be organized and set up for your party efficiently.
9. After that, our birthday party coordinator will bring out all your items and set up the table with the number of guests with treats we have indicated for your party. You can put out any special plates, etc. You take over from there.
10. If you get in to the party room after set-up and need something more, feel free to come back to the front ticket counter and request it –or purchase and item directly from the snack bar, if you would like.
11. Use the birthday area for up to 30 minutes. Vacate that space after your time as a courtesy to those with other reservations and customers.
We plan time before and after your party to clean up and set for the next party. Heaven's to Betsy, Please....! help us keep on time by either using just your 30 minutes OR reserve and pay for 2 party times.
10. When finished: Tidy up your area, throw away trash, take remaining birthday presents and other items to your car or ask us to store them until you leave.

Disaster risk management
By Lesley John, ACCA Marketing and Media Relations Manager
Hurricane Irma has caused catastrophic damage across the Caribbean and US. It's the most powerful Atlantic hurricane ever recorded, causing one of the largest humanitarian catastrophes in history.
Hurricane Irma has been a stark reminder of the dangers posed by extreme weather. Tropical storms are not uncommon to the Caribbean and unfortunately disaster occurrences cannot be eliminated. But the effects highlight the importance of disaster risk management.
In the public sector, many government departments work together in a disaster response to save and sustain lives and protect livelihoods. The consequences of not being able to recover from a natural disaster in a timely manner can include loss of reputation in the eyes of public and other government departments, inability to provide timely reporting and the loss of public confidence.
Organisations need to have a robust disaster risk management plan in place. This includes asset and threat identification, quantifying the potential losses, assessment of vulnerabilities, and evaluation of counter measures. It should also include definition of incidents and crisis assessment criteria, escalation procedure; and crisis management team roles and responsibilities. Without effective plans in place, businesses can find it difficult to respond immediately. But it's important to remember that a plan only works as a safety net to mitigate the impact of a disaster; you can never disaster-proof a company.
The British Virgin Islands (BVI) was one of several places directly hit by Hurricane Irma. The offshore business and legal centre has declared a state of emergency as a result of the catastrophic damage. The big four global accounting firms all have a presence in the BVI, as well as many other professional services businesses. All will now need a considerable amount of time to recover before they are able to restart operations.
The UK has pledged a £32m cash injection to its territories in the region. There have also been other pledges of assistance. The CCRIF, formerly the Caribbean Catastrophe Risk Insurance Facility; Scotiabank; the United Nations Development Programme; and the University of the West Indies have, in total, committed over US$16.4 million in relief efforts. The CCRIF announced that it would pay out $US15.6 million (EC$42 million) to the governments of Antigua & Barbuda, Anguilla, and St Kitts & Nevis to aid their recovery. The CCRIF said the passage of the category five hurricane triggered the payments on the countries' Tropical Cyclone polices
Many businesses have become adept at responding during disasters to help those worst affected. Last year when Hurricane Matthew struck parts of the Caribbean, GraceKennedy Ltd, one of the Caribbean's largest conglomerates, donated J$2.5 million in non-perishable food items to Haiti. Items include crates of porridge mixes, corned beef, sausages, mackerel, cheese, beans, juices and water products. In Jamaica, GraceKennedy staff collected items of clothing and other essentials to send to Haiti through Food For the Poor (FFP) Jamaica, the largest charity organisation in Jamaica.
Other forms of contribution from GraceKennedy's subsidiaries and partners are also under way. Then Hi-Lo Food Stores (Massy Stores) set up collection points at its 13 locations and supported FFP's appeal for non-perishable items. All donations were collected by FFP, which organised the shipment of items to Haiti. FFP's Haiti office handled distribution there.
Walmart, one of the world's largest retailers, has become practiced at responding to natural disasters, sometimes more quickly than governments.
Within the first three days following the earthquake and tsunami in Japan on March 11, 2011, the retailer had associates, working across Japan, taking action to help by setting up distribution points for relief items in its store parking lots when the stores themselves were too damaged to open. Its stores and distribution centres provided donations to the victims including water, food and sanitary items. The statement added that Walmart associates worked around the clock to keep supplies going to the Seiyu stores – as the chain is called in Japan – which had become a lifeline for local communities.
Natural disasters can come from anywhere at any time. Nobody has the power to know when a disaster will hit, but everyone has the power to prepare. Businesses that prepare for the worst will always be grateful that they did.

Martins eat 2000 mosquitoes a day:
Probably one of the biggest
misconceptions that people have about purple martins is that they eat 'thousands
of mosquitoes' every day. Many years ago, the phrase "Purple Martins can eat
2000 mosquitoes a day" was coined and it's stuck ever since. Well, I hate to
say it, but they are correct. Purple Martins CAN eat 2000 mosquitoes a
day. Unfortunately, the truth is, they don't. In fact, the statement is
very carefully worded so that the uneducated public believes that if they buy a
martin house and attract purple martins, then their mosquito woes are over.
Just like any other creature of nature, martins are opportunistic eaters and will take the largest and most readily available food at the time, and according to the studies done over the years, mosquitoes are no where near the top of that list. In fact, some of the research showed that mosquitoes were less than 2 % of the martins' diet.
Now, let's dig a little deeper into this subject on our own.
First, let's put our heads together and stop to think about something. When is it that mosquitoes become the worst?
After dark!
And, when do all daytime birds go to sleep?
At dark!
So, there's one reason the statement is false.
Second, mosquitoes like to stay close to the ground, where there's bushes to hide in and it's damp. Martins like to eat high in the air, sometimes as high as 300 and 400 feet. Another reason they don't cross paths.
Third, the favorite prey for a martin is a dragonfly, the mosquitoes' worst nightmare. Dragonflies prey on mosquito larva, therefore, it could be said that martins are actually helping the mosquito out by killing it's aggressor.
And forth, the mosquitoes hang out in your back yard, in your bushes and near your house. Martins are known to feed a rather large distance away from their home site so as not to attract the attention of predators. Again, they do nothing for your own personal welfare as far as mosquitoes are concerned.
Now this is not intended to dissuade your beliefs about martins. I'm simply presenting the facts taken from studies done on the subject. This in no way detracts from the fact that these birds are still a joy to have around. If they weren't, I wouldn't be here trying to persuade you to try and attract them.
And, if you really have a mosquito problem I highly suggest you look into some other form of control. Purple Martins are not the answer. I have a fairly good colony of martins and I also have a fairly good population of mosquitoes.

Our Hiking Leaders Are
Our hiking leaders are all different. They come from a wide range of places, are different ages, some are men, and some are women, and they have different skills, knowledge, and experience. But there is one thing that all of the leaders of the Ajijic Hiking Group have in common, it's their love of hiking and sharing it with other people.
Our hiking leaders are always happy to meet up with former hikers and make new friends and they are passionate about the trail they are about to transverse upon. Sharing the entire experience while hiking is a joy to them whether it's pointing out the flora or fauna, which way one path leads as opposed to the other, the history of particular areas and some cultural aspects of the people who live in the mountains today and in yesteryears.
Taking a hike with any of our hiking leaders is always a fun and interesting journey.
Jim B.
Jim served in the US Navy Submarine Service from 1966 to 1974, then was a Quality Control Manager for 35 years in Northeast Texas before retiring to Mexico in 2009.
Jim enjoys fishing, biking, and gardening. His other interest includes Mexican history and he participates in the exploration of old haciendas with the Cazadores de Haciendas group.
Lynne arrived at Lakeside full-time, from Vancouver, Canada in March 2005 and started hiking with a few women on Fridays that fall. They became familiar with the lower level hikes, and as they gained confidence started exploring other trails, working their way up to the Three Crosses and the Oak Forest. That original women's group eventually became co-ed and evolved into the current Friday Hiking Group. Since then, Lynne has hiked the Chupinaya, Mount Garcia, and Viejo trails with her favourite hikes being the Oak Forest to Ixtlahuacan and the WOW Point trails above the Racquet Club. Lynne enjoys the exercise that hiking provides and the camaraderie of her fellow hikers.
While Lynne never hiked in Canada she has hiked in other countries while on vacation which includes Nepal, Morrocco, Bolivia and Peru, Vietnam, England and Wales, Australia, New Zealand, China, Mongolia, Patagonia and the Lakes District in Argentina/Chile, the Camino de Santiago Portuguese route, the Cinque Terres area in Italy, the National Parks in Croatia, the Julian Alps in Slovenia and the Grand Canyon.
Doug and Amber
Doug moved to Ajijic in 2009 and has lived here ever since. Doug says "retirement agrees with me, I'm in my 70's and I feel I am the most fit I have ever been in my life." When people ask Doug what day of the week it is he replies "hell I'm retired, I don't even know what month it is." "We are living in paradise here."
Doug never hiked before coming to Mexico and Ajijic is the only place he has ever hiked. Doug has been hiking with the Ajijic Hiking Group for almost five years now and considers himself more than passingly familiar with just about any trail that can be reached walking from the hiking groups meeting location at Dona's on the Carretera. Fellow hikers Lynne, Laura and Larry have been instrumental in his trail education. Doug keeps a database of hiking waypoints and can tell you the distance, elevation gain, and elapsed time for just about any local hike you can describe. Doug is active in trail maintenance and always carries a saw with him on the hikes, he uses it readily to ensure the trails are maintained for everyone's use.
Wherever you see Doug, Amber isn't far behind. She is an enthusiastic hiker who loves to blaze the trail. She is a bright girl and knows whenever there is a fork in the path to wait there for Doug to be sure she takes the right route. Amber hikes with Doug four to five days a week and probably knows the trails just as well as he does.
Larry is not only one of our dedicated hiking leaders but he is an adventurer. If there is a possibility to explore or create a new trail, Larry proclaims "it's doable." He turns on his GPS so he can track the new trail, pulls out his trusty sheers and starts trimming the brush. For any hikers who were lucky enough to hike with Larry on one of those days, they would have had an for an off the beaten path adventure for sure.
By Larry's side is Levi. He's a strong steady hiker and if he's not up ahead blazing the path you might find him off exploring the woods closeby. I'm not sure who inspires who more, Levi or Larry.
Gary and Madi
Gary is dedicated to newcomers to lakeside and first-time hikers. He is caring, understanding and generous with his time. He ensures that all first-time hikers are comfortable making their way along the hiking trail and that no one gets left behind. Garry has a wealth of information and keeps all those in his group informed about the hiking path and areas history and points of interest.
Every hiking day Garry picks up Madi from a former hiker (who can no longer hike) and brings her along. Madi loves to hike and Garry ensures she is with us every step of the way. You will find Madi up ahead of the group and if she's not ahead of you she will almost certainly have found a pool of water to splash around in.
Jim C.
Jim has been hiking in the mountains around Lake Chapala for the last 10 years, as well as other areas within 2-3 hours drive of Ajijic. As a hike leader, he likes to point out the natural, cultural, and historical features encountered along the way to people who may be new to the area.
Jim retired after 30 years of work as a union and community organizer. He and his wife Carole moved from Oregon to Ajijic in 2007. During that time, they have visited many of Mexico's colonial cities and ancient pre-Hispanic ruins. They chronicle their experiences, including hiking adventures in their photo journal blog called Jim and Carole's Mexico Adventure.
Ed has been coming to Mexico for over ten years, originally to San Miguel de Allende and more recently to Ajijic. Walking around town and hiking in the hills has been a major source of fun in both areas, as it is in his northern home in Victoria, Canada. Even when he was an office manager in his working days, he liked being outside the most at his home in the country.
Ed now concentrates his efforts on the shorter hikes with the Ajijic Hiking Group. This level of activity helps newcomers get oriented to the local trails and altitude. It helps Ed get his exercise and have good conversations with interesting new friends.
Brett was born and raised in Miami, Florida and lived there for fifty-five years. He graduated from Barry University with a B.S. in Business and spent his adult working career at BellSouth, WorldCom, Quest, Washington Mutual Bank & Country Wide Bank and for a time in the Real Estate profession. Brett moved to Mexico in 2016 and is happily retired. He was and is still a lifetime aficionado who has run five marathons, over fifty ten kilometer road races and enjoys many other outdoor activities such as scuba diving, golf, archery, and bicycle riding. Brett's current passion is hiking the mountains above Ajijic and enjoys leading the intermediate hikes and occasionally the beginner and advanced hikes as well.

I received this book for free from Publisher in exchange for an honest review.
This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
by Callie Croix
Released: January 14, 2013
Published by Carina Press
Pages: 129
Format: ARC
I loved the way she was able to integrate the suspense subplot into the storyline without making it seem too far-fetched or clichéd. ~ Under the Covers
I discovered Callie Croix's work with LET ME IN. In that book, I found that I really enjoyed her writing style and voice. So I jumped at the chance at reading COVERT SEDUCTION.
Navy SEAL Reid Galvin is back, hoping to return to his life after leaving Becca Anderson for an assignment. However, when Reid gives Becca a call, she is in the midst of going out on a date with another guy. Seeming to have moved on since they last saw each other, Becca is trying to get a handle on a top secret discovery that she and her co-worker/date of the night, David have dug up. Little do they know that that discovery could very well get them killed.
A car accident that threatens to take their lives ups the ante in a large way. Croix really put the pedal to the metal and blasted this story from a good start to one that finished with finesse and style. I loved the way she was able to integrate the suspense subplot into the storyline without making it seem too far-fetched or clichéd.
And then there's the romance between Reid and Becca. At first, I understood Becca's initial resistance. Reid left her high and dry and came back hoping to continue things where they left off without a good enough explanation. But he sure does make up for it! Hot smexing does happen and it's definitely worth the read if you like a good combination between kinky and sweet.
I went back and forth between liking Becca and Reid. There were times when I didn't buy the excuses Reid came up with and also didn't always agree with Becca's actions in certain cases. That being said, I couldn't give this book the 4 stars that I initially started with.

Did you like this review? If so, please tell us your thoughts in the comments below!
When it comes to books I'm pretty adventurous. I read everything from Paranormal Romance to Urban Fantasy, New Adult, BDSM, LGBT fiction, Cozy Mysteries and even YA. If it's got the littlest trace of romance in it, then I'll probably read it. That being said, my all-time favorite authors are J.R. Ward and Karen Marie Moning.
When I'm not submerged in a good book, you can find me musing about makeup and planners or dreaming about Kpop boys and beaches. Until then, check out my reviews and let's talk books!

There is a lot to say for the discrete color of white gold, but sometimes you just want gold to be gold. You want the pure look of yellow gold or the rich tones of rose gold, and not only for the case but for the bracelet as well. Sometimes you want to go all in, and these watches are all the way with you for that!
Gold and Rolex are nearly synonymous of each other, as no other Swiss watch brand makes as many gold watches as they do. The picture above illustrates the striking difference between the two-tone and the full gold version of the GMT-Master II. Rolex developed the Everose gold themselves in 2005, and this alloy has a very rich look to it, which goes perfect with the black dial and brown and black Cerachrom bezel insert in ceramic of the watch.
Patek Philippe is no stranger to the use of gold as well, and they showcase their skills in that area perfectly with the ref. 5270/1R manual wind perpetual calendar chronograph. By combining the rose gold case with a black sunburst dial, it amplifies the rich color. While this would look great on a black strap, Patek Philippe opted for a gold 'Goutte' bracelet, who's five-link design looks robust, yet follows the curve of the wrist perfectly for optimum wearing comfort.
Omega uses their proprietary Sedna gold, a mixture of gold, copper, and palladium, for their Seamaster Aqua-Terra 150M. By combining different finishes throughout the case and the bracelet, they highlight the simple, yet powerful profile of this Seamaster. Technically it is anything but simply because the automatic caliber 8901 is fitted with a co-axial escapement, and is certified as a Master-Chronometer by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS).
The full-gold Santos de Cartier became a legend when it was on the wrist of Michael Douglas, while playing his Oscar-winning role of Gordon Gekko in the cult-classic 'Wallstreet'. The design of the Santos, with its bracelet with prominent screws seems to be made to be crafted from gold, and highlights the unique qualities of the precision metal perfectly. The latest version of the Santos de Cartier is also available in full gold, even as very tempting skeleton version, which we already discussed in further detail here.

Ways Open, Ways Closed
by Julie Eberhart Painter
Melissa backed away from the open wound in the ground, her son's grave. The hospice nurses hugged her one last time and then left in their vans. "More patients to see," they said.
The other mourners were only acquaintances who'd go on to their duties while she had the remainder of her life to grieve for her son. There would be no gathering of friends bringing food and comfort in this now strange city shrouded with dirty lamb's wool clouds. A fog of stillness settled over her. It was as if to speak would evoke an outpouring of unbearable emotion.
A blond man in a tan coat stood nearby. When he turned, she could tell he'd been watching her. He looked vaguely familiar. But she shrugged the feeling off and walked slowly toward her rental car.
The blond man, his coat now slung over his arm, approached.
"Mrs. Hartman?"
"I... I'm sorry to intrude. It was in the papers, and I had to come."
"Thank you," she said, descending the three steps to the parking lot.
"Can you wait?" He hurried up beside her.
"Do I know you?"
"You may not remember me. I'm Tom Waters, from high school?"
She looked him over. "We must have been in different classes."
"Class of sixty-two. But I remember you. You planned to go to New York and join the Rockettes."
She laughed. "Life happens. I remember now. Did you become an astronomer?"
"Engineer. Still science."
"Good for you." She unlocked her car. "It was nice of you to come. I don't know many people in Philadelphia anymore."
He cleared his throat and inclined his head. "I lost my son, too," he said.
Melissa felt the first sting of tears in days. "I'm sorry," she said.
"It was long ago, but we never get over losing a child."
She opened the car door and sat. He pushed her door shut. She inserted the key in the ignition. The window slid down.
Tom put his forearm on the window frame. "How about something to eat, at least tea? Surely you don't plan to leave tonight?"
"My flight is at seven tomorrow morning."
"You shouldn't be alone. You're probably not hungry, but why not accept a little company from someone who knows what you're feeling."
She doubted that anyone knew how she felt, and she didn't care if she ever ate again, but...
"I suppose we could meet in my hotel lobby in a few minutes. I'm at the airport Hilton."
"Fine." He stood away from the car. "I'll follow you." He pointed to a green Honda with a huge daisy on the aerial.
She smiled and nodded.
At the hotel restaurant, he took charge, asking for a booth far from the door, and insisting that a pot of tea be brought to the table. Melissa usually drank coffee, but it was so easy to let Tom do everything, plan everything.
He lifted his flared cup and smiled. "Tell me about your son," he said.
"He was... smart, a photographer just hitting his stride. He could have been..."
Tom's hand covered hers. "It's the could-have-beens that get to you."
She swallowed. "And your son?"
"Andrew died of congestive heart failure at the age of eight."
"Just a little boy. How awful."
His face darkened. "These days, he might have been saved. Bad timing."
"I know about bad timing. John had AIDS for thirty years." Melissa surprised herself telling him this.
"That's so sad."
"He chose to stay here in town when I remarried and moved to Arizona."
"It's a different world out west," he said.
"Very different. I'd forgotten until I stepped off the plane here."
"The tradition, the established look of it. Don't you miss it?"
"In some ways..."
The waitress arrived with scones and little sandwiches.
"I find that something sweet helps at a time like this," Tom said.
She stared at the plate with its pastries on linen doilies.
He looked at her, a question lighting his face. "What stopped you from going to New York? You were such a good dancer in the talent shows."
Her head came up with a start. "I was never better than third."
"That's not how I remember it."
"You remember it your way; I choose to be realistic." She paused for moment than took a deep breath. "My husband's sister, Janet, was the talented dancer in the family."
"Oh." He swallowed. "Janet was really good. But she didn't pursue it?"
"She became an accountant. More profitable."
Later, Tom walked Melissa to the elevator and down the hall to her room. He opened her door and handed her the plastic keycard, smiling down at her. "Well, this has been a special reunion, albeit a sad one." He gave her his business card. "Please call me if you need to talk."
Melissa looked at him. Strange that he'd thought she was Janet, who'd attended her ballet class, not she, Melissa Hartman, who'd married Janet's brother. She shook her head. Fortunately she and Tom hadn't embarrassed themselves. He'd needed this tea and sympathy as much as she had.
"You've been my knight in shining armor today, Tom."
"Please call if you're lonely, or having a bad day."
"Thank you for being here; it helped."
"I mean it. Call me." He pointed to the card still in her hand.
"I just might do that."

Work from Home…a Home You Own
March 17, 2019 by Marty Orefice | Real Estate, Rent to Own
Telecommuting or remote workers are people who work from home instead of in the office. This lifestyle is made possible by progressions in technology and many people considerate a much more convenient way to work.
By cutting out the commute they add much more time into the life bracket of work-life balance. Lunch becomes easier as you can eat from the comfort of your kitchen. And you cannot forget the perk of sleeping in until it's time to start your day.
However, recent data from Apartment List shows that people who telecommute have an unexpected perk – more of them are homeowners than people who go into work. In fact, people who telecommute are 27 percent more likely to own a home than their commuter counterparts.
Why Are Telecommuters More Likely To Own a Home
There are two reasons why telecommuters are more likely to own a home than people trekking it into the office.
1. Telecommuters make more money.
Telecommuting is a much easier way of life than going to the office. Most people would likely choose to if they had the choice. Nonetheless, not everyone does. Partially, because a lot of companies don't offer it as a perk. But more so because it is a perk.
Entry-level employees likely haven't built up a rapport with the company they work at to have access to this perk. However, many more experienced employees – who also make more money – have built enough trust with their employer to earn this privilege.
For this factor, telecommuters don't make more money because they can telecommute, rather they can make more money because of their status with their employer.
2. Telecommuters can live wherever they want.
People who travel into the office commute on average 25 minutes per day each way. That being said, the average commuter lives within 25 minutes of the office. And all commuters have to at least be in a close enough proximity to work that they can get back and forth each day.
Nonetheless, people who telecommute are not chained down in that way. They can live as far away from their office as they'd like.
Housing is often more expensive within urban settings than it is in suburbia or away from big cities. With that being said, not only do telecommuters often make more than their commuter counterparts; but, they have access to a lot more housing options and can find one that meets their price range.
How Can This Information Help Me Rent to Own?
When you're looking for your rent to own property, think about your future. Do you think working from home could be in your future? If so, consider a lease-option on a property a bit farther from work. You will have a long commute in the short-run, but if you can find a more affordable property, it could be worth it!

For those that aren't familiar with them, OSCEs are Objective Structured Clinical Examinations. I did these at medical school, especially in the first few years. They were the standard way of checking that you could do basic things like taking blood pressure, or resuscitation. As an assessment, they're quite formulaic: the mark-scheme tends to be quite prescriptive ((i.e. one mark for washing your hands, one mark for introducing yourself, one mark for palpating the apex beat…). It's a structured (hence the title!) assessment, and I never thought they were particularly useful in "real life". (Seriously, you simply cannot follow a structured examination sequence if your patient is running around a playroom, or trying to feed you soggy crisps…And if that's what you're trying to do, then you need to start being a paediatrician)
Now, initially, I thought that OSCEs had no place in the MRCPCH clinical. I mean, these are clinical examinations to be a registrar! It's not supposed to be a tick-box exercise: it's a serious, grown-up exam for "real" doctors who makes decisions and things. Just going through the motions isn't good enough.
But then I thought about the time restrictions, and the amount of things that you're expected to get done, and how much I panic when I'm nervous… And I realised that the OSCE approach could actually be quite useful. So if you're like me, and you becoming a quivering tomato in the face of exams (my consultant's description – thanks Jo!), then this might be useful.
When I revised for my medical school OSCEs, I made myself a tick-list of everything I had to include in my CVS exam. Then I repeated this for every other system I could think of. Then I practiced with my friends to make sure I could get all of this done in the time for the station, plus still leave 2 minutes for examiner questions and to go back and check things. When it came to the clinicals, I did the same thing. (I also did it for the "other" station – but that's a whole other topic!).
Now, I am not for one minute suggesting that you treat the clinical stations like an OSCE. Please, don't go in there and just go through the motions so that you can get things ticked off a mark sheet (although, please introduce yourself & wash your hands!!)
But sometimes, it's useful to have a structure, because:
- When your mind goes blank, and you have no idea what to do next, then having a routine is a useful thing to fall back on.
- It makes sure that you cover the simple, and basic things (like feeling the liver in the CVS exam, or checking for central cyanosis)
- The structure is also quite useful to organise your feedback to the examiner (again, if you have a total mind freeze)
- It helps with timing: if you know that you can do a structured, and (fairly) complete system examination in 5 minutes, then you know that in the exam you'll have enough time to do the fancy extras, or to go back and confirm your findings, or spend a bit more time playing with the child and building their confidence, or have a chat about the weather… And you will still have time to answer any questions that the examiner has
Treat the OSCE structure as a template you can build your examination around; make it personal; practice doing it this way at work (on real children): it should become second nature, and then the exam will just feel like everyday… Hopefully. Unless you actually are a quivering wreck, in which case chocolate is useful…

Rio is a big city full of marvelous neighbourhoods and bicycling is, probably, the fastest way to explore all of it. Especially in winter (June—September) when it's less humid, hot, and rainy a bike is the perfect way of getting around. There is a big network of bike lanes around the city that connect different neighbourhoods, including some famous sights. But probably the most beautiful and popular are the lanes that separate the coastline and the streets. There are lots of options to rent a bike in Rio, and most of them are very economical and accessible for anybody. So choose the perfect bicycle and enjoy the breeze and the landscape while doing some exercise.

Water analysis of my RO/DI water.
I dose Seachem Reef Trace and Seachem Reef Plus, either product is very high in Tin. Reef Plus also contains the same amount of Copper as Tin and the ICP test showed there was 0 Copper in the tank. I will have to test a fresh sample of salt water to see if the source is the Aquaforest Reef salt. I have been dosing KZ Sponge Power which is mostly sodium silicate because I have seen an increase in sponge growth but I may not need it as my RO/DI water is a good source of silica.
