Music has always been a part of Laguna's art culture, but it has a hit-or-miss history. Lyric Opera Co. was founded here, leading to the formation of Opera Pacific, which moved out of town. The Laguna Chamber Music Society presented concerts at the Artists Theatre until it moved to the Barkley while the high school was being renovated and never came back. The Pacific Symphony played chamber music concerts in the theater until school officials no longer would clear the calendar for them.
But Laguna also has some keepers. Among the hits: Original scores add luster to the Pageant of the Masters. Concerts in Bluebird Park always draw a crowd of local music lovers. No Square Theatre musicals, including "Lagunatics," are special treats. The Laguna Concert Band, which began with six members, now has 60 musicians and performs more than 20 concerts a year, and Laguna Tunes has begun making a splash. Fete de la Musique, organized by the Sister Cities Assn. of Laguna Beach, gets bigger and better every year.
But no organization scores more highly on the scale for local musical events than Laguna Beach Live!, founded in August 2001 by Cindy Prewitt, Joe Byrne and Sam Goldstein.
The piece de resistance is the Laguna Beach Music Festival, presented jointly with the Orange County Philharmonic Society, set this year for Feb. 4 to 10 to showcase the sounds of South America. Performers include the Pablo Ziegler Classical Tango Quartet, Todo Mundo, the Calidore Quartet, Huayucaltia and Regina Carter, winner of the MacArthur Foundation genius grant.
Some events are free and those tickets are going fast, if not already gone, Prewitt said.
Tickets, which can be ordered at http://www.LagunaBeachMusicFestival.com or by phone, are $40. A $100 package includes prime seating, reserved parking and champagne at intermission.
An opening night party at the Laguna Beach Woman's Club is $45. Seating is limited. A champagne reception and dinner at Claes Restaurant, concert tickets, a post-performance dessert party on stage with the musicians, and shuttle transportation to and from the Hotel Laguna is priced at $200.
For more information, visit the festival website or call (949) 715-9713.
The kickoff for the 11th annual festival was hosted by Saltfineart at 1492 S. Coast Hwy., which specializes in Latin contemporary art, a perfect tie-in to the "Sounds of Latin America." The gallery has coordinated exhibitions in city galleries to compliment the festival's musical theme.
Guests at the reception feasted their eyes on art while munching on empanadas and other goodies.
Gallery owner Carla Tesak Arzente spoke about the art of Luis Cornejo and Cecilia Peredes, featured in the current show at the gallery, and announced the upcoming show of works by Esterio Segura, starting Feb. 7.
Guests at the reception included festival director Sandy Robertson and board members John Beneke, Carol Reynolds, Ron Harris and Lauren Conrad, event co-chair with Judy Jelenick; Laguna Beach Live! board members Madeleine Peterson and Betsy Jenkins, festival donors Barbara and Ken McMurray, and Igal and Diane Silver.
"Laguna is known as an art town — we are working to also make it a music town," Prewitt said.
The work has paid off. In the 2011-12 season, the group presented 34 concerts in a variety of genres and venues, including the sold-out Joshua Bell and Edgar Meyer concerts in last year's festival.
Less than three weeks into 2013, Laguna Beach Live! has presented a concert at the Laguna Art Museum, one of a series performed there on the second Thursday of the month through May 9, and opened the winter Jazz Wednesday's series in its new venue at Aliso Creek Inn & Golf Course's Canyon Grill, still called by many Ben Brown's.
Expansion of the group's educational component is planned. The program already includes participation by guest artists from the museum concerts conducting a program at the Boys & Girls Club in the afternoon before the performance.
Wednesday's sold-out concert featured the Latin Jazz Syndicate, led by trumpeter Bijon Watson. Laguna Niguel music lover Dick Malek attended the concert with his wife, Deanna.
Also in the audience were Mayor Pro Tem Elizabeth Pearson, city Arts Commissioner Mary Ferguson, Laguna Beach County Water District General Manager Renae Hinchey, Festival of Arts Event Coordinator Susan Davies, Playhouse Executive Director Karen Wood and Artistic Director Ann Wareham, Kathy and Larry Nokes, Old Pottery Place owner Joe Hanauer, Sue Kempf, Katherine Watson-Jones of Laguna Woods and Patsy Hadlich of Dana Point.
The series continues Jan. 30 and concludes April 17. Summer Jazz Wednesday concerts will be held in the Hotel Laguna Rose Garden.
Also scheduled for this year: a free Feb. 14 Valentines' Day Concert at Laguna Art Museum, featuring pianists Christine Lenhardt and Joshua Chandon.
Gospel music lovers would be wise to order tickets now for the Gospel Champagne Brunch featuring Yve Evans on March 10 at Tivoli Too. The brunch is part of the annual Laguna Beach a la Carte food and wine festival. It is always sold-out, Prewitt said.
The award-winning Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra will be on stage April 20 at the Laguna Playhouse.
Named Best Big Band in America, the orchestra is co-lead by bassist John Clayton, his brother and reed player, Jeff Clayton, and drummer Jeff Hamilton. The band was the resident jazz orchestra for the Los Angeles Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl for several years, according to the Laguna Beach Live! website.
Laguna Beach Live! programs and presentations are supported by ticket sales, grants, donations and membership fees, starting at $100.
Major donors include the city, the Business Improvement District that is funded by local hotels and restaurants, the National Endowment for the Arts, Joan Havajian and members of the board Jelenik, Jenkins and Tom Ellerbe, which also includes Joe Becker, Cody Engle, Paul Freeman, Glenn Gray, Goldstein, Pearson, Peterson and Prewitt. They would welcome new members.

Some parents are disgusting. Really disgusting. They'll pick up a pacifier from just about anywhere and pop it in their baby's mouth. But are you ready to be really grossed out, Moms and Dads? You know that pacifier that has turned your screaming baby into a sweet little dumpling who actually sleeps through the night? It's absolutely crawling with germs, and I do mean CRAWLING!
Before you say no, duh, of course there are germs out there, but you have to eat a pound of dirt before you die, I'm not trying to be an alarmist here. But it's time some parents wake up to how absolutely disgusting they are! And you don't have to take my word for it: a new pacifier study out of the American Society for Clinical Pathology should make you clean up your act.
This goes out to all of you who think the five-second rule applies to binkies. Oh, and while I'm at it, I'd like to give a shout-out to the "well, I popped it in my mouth" Moms out there.
We adults ask for a new fork after it falls of the table in a restaurant, but we have no compunction about sticking a pacifier back into the mouth of a baby.
You think it's no big deal. Science says otherwise.
The researchers who took pacifiers actually being used by healthy infants found 40 different species of bacteria on just 10 pacifiers. We're talking really nasty stuff like Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumonia! And remember, these were healthy kids; it wasn't like they went into a hospital and yanked the binky out of some sick kid's trap.
Excuse me for returning to the second grade for a moment, but ewwwwww! Pneumonia? Staph? Ew, ew, and more ew!
You wouldn't want that in your mouth, would you? Come to think of it, you wouldn't want something in your mouth after it hit the floor of the mall food court either, would you? How about in your mouth after someone else sucked on it?
Kind of makes you want to change your ways, doesn't it?
What's your pacifier prerogative? Do you sanitize that sucky?

Actually, it does say that already, in the upper right corner:
"Archers, Catapults and Trebuchets can only bombard unless stated otherwise."
Oh, there it is!!
Nevermind then, it's on there.
I wonder - does it just not stand out enough? Could it somehow be emphasized more?
No i dont agree you have more maps with alot of information and new players to the map must take there time to read it all before starting there first turn. If players are to lazy to do so they should not join such games its there own fault!
Maby CC could ad a tag to each map marking the dificalty of the map for new players to warn them...

History and Culture
The Christmas Garden
A visit to The Christmas Garden will transport you into the realms of Christmas - only a 10 minute drive from Akureyri. Here you will find countless items connected to the festive season from all parts of the world. Of course, Icelandic Christmas traditions are given priority, such as legs of smoked lamb hanging from a beam and the decorative "leaf bread" in many patterns, as well as the Yuletide Lads and their parents, who play such an important role in the Icelandic Christmas celebrations. Quality handwork, crafted by many artists from all parts of the country deck the shelves, making this a place which appeals to all the family.
Kjarnaskógur woods
South of Akureyri is Iceland´s most visited "forest" Kjarnaskogur woods. The area has 2km long athletic course, walking tracks, picnic tables and children´s playground. Campsite at nearby Hamrar.
History and Culture
The old farmhouse Laufás
Laufás is mentioned in historical records soon after the settlement of Iceland (874-930) and since the earliest period of Christianity a church has been located there. The existing church was built in 1865 and among its special items is a pulpit from 1698. The farmhouse was rebuilt in an ambitious style in 1853-1882 and is an example of the gabled farmhouse, although significantly larger than the ordinary Icelandic farmhouse. The oldest section of the present day house is believed to contain timbers from the 16th and 17th century. The Laufás farmhouse at present equipped with household items and utensils resembles those in use at the beginning of the 20th century.
At Laufás there is a souvenir shop and a restaurant serving Icelandic dishes.
History and Culture
The Aviation Museum
The Icelandic Aviation Museum is located at Akureyri Airport in the north of Iceland.
Aviation and Akureyri have had a close relationship since 1928 when the first scheduled passenger flight operated in Iceland arrived in Akureyri from Reykjavík via Ísafjörður and Siglufjörður. The aircraft was a Junkers F.13 operated on lease to a newly formed Icelandic airline named Flugfélag Íslands (the second of four companies to bear that same name). The aircraft belonged to Deutsche Luft Hansa and the pilots, mechanics and operations manager were also supplied by the German airline.
Since first opening the Museum has annually held a "Flying Weekend" on the last weekend in June. Incuded in the weekend's programme is the Icelandic National Aerobatics Competition as well as an array of displays and other activities.
History and Culture
Nonni´s House Museum
Nonni´s house was the childhood home of the writer and Jesuit priest Jón Sveinsson, "Nonni", who wrote books for children. Nonni´s house is among Akureyri´s oldest houses, built in 1850. Today it is a memorial museum were many items connected with Nonni and the Nonni books, in such diverse languages as Japanese and Esperenato are kept. Books by Jón Sveinsson in several languages are sold in the museum.
Hlidarfjall ski area
The ski area at Mt. Hlidarfjall lies at the bottom of one of the biggest fjords in Iceland surrounded by high mountains ranging from 1000 to 1538 meters over sea level. The ski area is 5 km above the town Akureyri. The area has 6 ski lifts, 23 alpine slopes and 15 km of cross country tracks, ski cafés, ski rental and a ski school. Snow production systems ensure a long season from end of November till beginning of May.
History and Culture
Akureyri Museum
In the oldest part of Akureyri (known as the Inner town), stands the Akureyri Museum. Here we find many interesting and well set up exhibitions, which we have no hesitation in recommending for adults and children alike.
Those with a thirst for knowledge, and who wish to find out about Akureyri in a more innovative way, we recommend a visit to the exhibition "Akureyri, the Town by the Pool". Here you will find a trader's store, a parlour, a playroom and numerous photographs capturing life in the town throughout the years - and all of which make up an enjoyable tour through Akureyri's history as a centre of trade and industry. The remains of a burial mound containing boats, mediaeval trading goods, a warp-weighted loom and information on settlement in Eyjafjörður, are among the things of interest to be found on the top floor of the premises, in the exhibition "Eyjafjörður in the Early Period". Each year there is also a summer exhibition.
Akureyri Museum has on offer historical walks for groups through the old part of town, the Oddeyri and/or Glerárþorp district, as well as soirées in the Museum Church where you are taken on a journey of prose and song into the world of Icelandic music, from the Middle Ages to the present day.
The garden surrounding Akureyri Museum is more than a century old and makes a pleasant stopping place on your journey round town. Within the garden stands a church built in 1846, which is rented out for various kinds of ceremonies.
History and Culture
Safnasafnid Museum
Safnasafnið - The Icelandic Folk Art Museum - was founded in 1995 by Níels Hafstein and Magnhildur Sigurðardóttir. The collection, consisting of paintings, sculptures, drawings, watercolours, embroideries, books, dolls, toys and tools, presents an interesting and informative view of folk art, as well as modern art and what inspires it. The collection consists of over 3000 works by naive, outsider and folk artists and close to 200 works by modern artists. Also in the museum are a small café and a museum shop.
Yearly the museum displays 16 exhibitons of diverse character mixing folk art and modern to create a surprising rendez-vous of ideas and show in one place the wonderful and playful paths of the creative mind. The museum also offers a superb library with books on art, architecture, outsider art, gardens, cars and diverse other things, all adding to its meditative charm. The museum offers excellent explorative grounds for the curious visitor, who becomes spontaneously a participant in an adventure that brings his and hers youthful spirit to new heights.

Stages of Meditation
Throughout the program, the Dalai Lama emphasizes the importance of the logical analysis of scriptures, even those in the Buddha's own words. Some teachings, he stresses, "should not be taken literally, but need interpretation." And interpretation is what the Dalai Lama presents in this clear and enjoyable commentary. Included are such familiar Buddhist themes as training the mind, compassion, the nature of suffering, and the practice of calm abiding. Those who practice meditation, whether Buddhist or not, will find this a thoughtful and practical guide, written with the Dalai Lama's characteristic warmth and gentleness.

Good material but poor editing
In the course of my study of Tibetan Buddhism, I have read and listened to many books by the Dalai Lama. Most of them are very good but this one is average. The commentary is helpful and interesting, and the subject is intellectually challenging but the editing is poor. Several times during the recording, the reader repeats words or sentences seemingly by accident. I do not expect that this repetition was in the original text, it simply would not make sense. I also found the reader's delivery to be a bit too monotonous. Granted, many audio books on Buddhism are read this way but this reader was an extreme example. Overall, I thought the book was helpful in my practice but it is not exemplary.
As a side note, I would definitely not recommend this book to a beginner. The subject is somewhat advanced and would not benefit a reader that lacks a decent understanding of Tibetan Buddhism.

Where does Stages of Meditation rank among all the audiobooks you've listened to so far?
Top three.
Who was your favorite character and why?
The narrator, his tone and voice were very easy to understand.
Have you listened to any of Ken McLeod's other performances before? How does this one compare?
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Yes, this book made me search.
Any additional comments?
I'd like to share this quote from the book, "...there is no identity separate from the mind that perceives it."

precious practical buddhist advice
I loved this audio book as it gives practical guidance to realising enlightenment. It builds upon the Dalai Lama's book 'Becoming Enlightened' and is clearly, if at times monotonously, narrated. To be fair the narration was only at times monotonous by comparison to the previous audibook by the Dalai Lama that I listened to which was excellently narrated by Martin Sheen. I highly recommended this audiobook for deepening one's Buddhist practice; it is not for the beginner.

Learn to Meditate.
If you don't know anything about meditation, then this book will get you started. There are some contradictions in this book depending on your thinking process but it's really easy to follow.

Jog mapping – the productive way of working outPosted: May 20th, 2010 | Author: Guttorm Flatabø | Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: jogging, Klæbu, mapping, openstreetmap, osm, utilitarian, working out, , | 9 Comments »
Perhaps inspired by french barefoot jogger and entrepreneur Loic Le Meur, and the fact that during six weeks of travelling I only got to work out twice (and swimming in the shallow pools of The Flamingo doesn't work that well), I started jogging every day last week.
Having to attend my two last lectures of STS in Trondheim, I was stranded in the remote town of Klæbu. With six days of reading inbetween lectures, there was plenty of time for jogging. Thus, to not feel too alone I brought my newly acquired Holux m-241 GPS logger with me for my jogging trips.
The utilitarian that I am, my biggest problem with working out has always been that it's not immediately productive. You only produce muscles and good health, and seemingly for no tangible purpose (I know there are many, the reason why I work out anyway). There are many ways to solve this problem. You can work out by chopping wood, carry things, cycle to work, etc. In Klæbu I found another way: Jog to make maps!
This is jog mapping (or map jogging): While working out is your primary goal, your secondary goal is to improve Openstreetmap. To do this you have to jog where Openstreetmap has poor coverage or needs improving, and you need to bring a GPS logging device. Now your jogging will have a real useful, tangible purpose, as it will help Openstreetmap improve!
At the same time you'll really get to explore the area, and as you map it you'll get familiar with all the paths and possible routes for your jogging. If you're especially couragious and go jogging into peoples yards and gardens, you might also make som friends (and enemies). When you start running around houses and parking lots to log their location, you'll eventually end up in the local newspaper too.
Luckily Openstreetmap wasn't very well covered in Klæbu, so the Tuesday I arrived, the map looked something like this:
And now, it looks like this:
Oh, combining mapping with your daily life and social activities isn't anything new, there's always a mapping party!

The end of the holiday season sparks some great deals for travelers in Mexico's Baja, including lodging and spa packages at Hacienda Beach Club & Residences in Cabo San Lucas. And the lodging specials at the resort include an opportunity to help with a conservation program.
The 2-year-old Hacienda offers a long list of family-friendly activities, including a save-the-turtles program, which gives visitors a chance to release baby turtles to the sea.
Within the last few months, guests have helped send more than 1,400 turtles on their way.
"We work closely with local officials on the turtle release program," said Ricardo Ramirez, Hacienda Beach Club & Residences general manager, who described the activity as a "one-of-a-kind experience" for guests.
Every year, female turtles, many of them Olive Ridley sea turtles -- also known as Golfina turtles -- lay thousands of eggs in nests on the beach. The eggs are protected from the time they're laid until they hatch in fall and winter, when the babies are aided in their struggle to reach the sea.
Besides the turtle-release program, the 22-acre, $250-million resort offers catamaran excursions, fitness courses and other activities.
Rates start at $550 a night, but a current special offers a 25% discount for guests who stay four nights and a 30% discount for those who stay five nights.

and yeah im sorry you smoked/snorted/got them mixed up too much last night, and I don't care you hallucinated a map but that doesn't change a thing.
if you want I can get a picture of a cluster and put some lines on it, maybe a key and hey wow its a map!
and you skirted round the fact I've seen NO mocs from you, and really your getting fussy over your little dot on a map that is a tiny dot it self in a larger scale and even more so when you view the whole thing.
for all we know there might be a race of minifigure like beings playing out all this (minus the arguements and what not).
... your the worse kind of troll.

I am looking to press on in business development and wish to do so with a strong brand/design. Would like a FRESH yet timeless look to grow with.

The first half of 2011 saw several storage acquisitions, but for every company bought at least two new ones seemed to appear. These storage startups are for the most part focused on either accelerating storage in data center and cloud environments with new ways to interface with SSDs and/or server memory, or on ways to better manage "big data," or data which scales to multiple petabytes of capacity and is created or collected, is stored, and is collaborative in real time.
Turn the page for a look at the future of storage through 10 of those startups.

Gregory Schoen and his family joined the Smyrna church community in October when he became the new senior pastor at Grace Point Church of God north of town. In the time since then, Pastor Schoen and his wife Angela have spent time emerging themselves in the Smyrna community hoping they can make it better in their own way.
Schoen's journey to Smyrna started in 1993 when he felt God calling him to be a pastor.
"We've been serving in the church but all the while having a feeling like God's been calling us to the place where we are now," Schoen said.
When the Schoens started at Grace Point Church of God, Angela said the church membership consisted only of their family but over the past year their congregation has grown, and the members of the church are dedicated and very supportive.
"We really love the Smyrna community. We really have a heart for the Smyrna area and the time that we've been down here we've met a lot of great people," Schoen said. "We want to be able to reach out to the community. I think that for me, it says it in the bible in John 10:10, 'Jesus came to people we might have life, and have it more abundantly,' and so for me I want to see people have that abundant life, and in that abundant life is healthy relationships, good marriages, great families, freedom from addiction, and really just living life to the fullest. So we're really interested in having more people from the community come to the church and families in the area come out to see what we have here."
To help families in the area, the Schoens and members at Grace Point are starting new programs. The church has a bread ministry, which is Mondays and Wednesday from 9 to 10:30 a.m. Angela said anyone in the community can come and get the bread for free. They're also going to be doing quarterly giveaways of clothing, household items, books and more. The next giveaway will be Saturday, July 27 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Another activity the church is holding is a program called, "Tough questions you've always wanted to ask God." Schoen said one part of the activity gives people a chance to get answers for questions including "Why does God allow suffering?" and more. This program is on Sundays at 11 a.m. through Sept. 8.
One other program Schoen said they're looking to start is called Celebrate Recovery.
"Celebrate Recovery is about people who have hurts and hang-ups and habits, and getting freedom in their lives," Schoen said. "So it's geared towards people who don't ordinarily come to a church service but they will come out to the people like themselves who are fed up with their lives. For example, maybe somebody's an alcoholic and they're trying to kick that habit so they come out with others who are here to support them."
Angela said they don't have a start date for the program but they're reaching out to other churches to partner with on the project. She said they've been making an effort in working with other churches in the community to serve the community and help those in need.
"It's just a blessing for us to get to know some of the folks in the community and to let them know that there are people out there who care about them, and you know are here to support them and help them as we can," Angela said.

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Retail Giant Rejected Black Employee for Promotion and Retaliated Against Her for Complaining, Federal Agency Charged
JACKSON, Miss. - The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity (EEOC) announced today that it has filed a lawsuit for race discrimination and retaliation against Dollar General Corporation, asserting that it violated federal law when it denied a black lead sales associate in a Long Beach, Miss., store a promotion to a vacant assistant store manager position because of her race. The EEOC said the store also retaliated against her for complaining, and filing a charge of discrimination with the EEOC.
According to the EEOC's suit, Demetrice Hersey had been working for Dollar General for almost three years, most recently as the lead sales associate, when an assistant manager position became available three separate times between 2009 and early 2010. Dollar General rejected Hersey's requests to be promoted with spurious reasons, while hiring three less-qualified whites. After Hersey's complaints about the discriminatory treatment and her later filing a race discrimination charge with the EEOC, Dollar General began treating her in a demeaning and cruel manner and issued a series of unwarranted performance actions against her.
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits employers from using race as a factor in making employment decisions and prohibits employers from retaliating against employees who invoke the protections afforded by Title VII. The EEOC's lawsuit, filed on Sept. 25 in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi (EEOC v. Dollar General Corporation, Case No. 3:12-cv-0670-HTW-LRA), seeks monetary damages, including back pay, compensatory and punitive damages, and injunctive relief. The EEOC filed suit after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement through its conciliation process.
"This lawsuit should remind employers that the EEOC will take action when a company makes hiring decisions based on the race of the applicants instead of on their experience and qualifications," said C. Emanuel Smith, regional attorney for the EEOC's Birmingham District Office.
Delner Franklin-Thomas, district director for the EEOC's Birmingham District Office, added, "Some employers continue to allow race and retaliation to invade their workplace decisions. Employers need to ensure their work forces are properly trained in these areas, and held accountable if they violate the law."
According to company information, Dollar General is the nation's largest small-box discount retailer, and has almost 10,000 retail stores in 38 states.
The EEOC is responsible for enforcing federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. The EEOC's Birmingham District consists of Alabama, Mississippi (except 17 northern counties) and the Florida Panhandle. Further information about the EEOC is available on its web site at www.eeoc.gov.

No Way Out
Edward left Bella and never came back, Victoria never came after her, but a monster of the mortal kind did. Now Bella is an NCIS agent trying to solve the most difficult case of her career.
1. Chapter 1
Rating 5/5 Word Count 1034 Review this Chapter
Edward left me. It was a fact that I had resigned myself to years ago. I was not angry with him, I'd always known that I was not enough to hold him, and so it was not a surprise to me when he was gone. After Edward left I threw myself into my school work, refusing to let myself dwell on my loneliness at all. After graduation I went to Georgetown to major in English Literature, it was there that I met Leroy Jethro Gibbs.
My relationship with Gibbs started out strangely to say the least, I met him when he was investigating the murder of my roommate's sister, a petty officer who'd been staying with us for the weekend. Chelsea had been on a three day leave and she'd needed a place to crash because she didn't want to leave the city only to have to come back the instant she got home. Apparently she'd also been trying to outwit an ex-boyfriend who just didn't understand what over meant. The boyfriend had come back to our room a couple of days after killing Chelsea and he'd thought I was my roommate. He was holding me at knife point, spouting all kinds of craziness about how if he couldn't have my sister he'd have to take me instead, when Gibbs burst in. He tackled the sociopath and saved my life. After that I changed the course my life was on and applied at NCIS where I was assigned to Gibbs's team along with Timothy McGee, Anthony DiNozzo, and Ziva David. They were the best team anyone could ask for.
McGee was a tech wizard who was fully capable of illegally hacking into the Pentagon, and had upon occasion. Tony was the king of movies and a sharp shooting smart alec, but I wouldn't want to go into an abandoned warehouse with anyone else as my back up. Ziva was something entirely different, as an ex-assassin she was perhaps the most deadly of the team, yet at the same time I felt the best connection with her, maybe it was the danger magnet in me. Along with our team we had the forensic scientist Abby Soto, at first I found it hard to be around her, with all of her gothic garb reminding of the life I'd wanted for myself, but in time I found that Abby was perhaps the most compassionate person around. When I first came into NCIS I was jealous of the relationship Gibbs had with Abby, but I soon realized much of his fatherly affection had to do with the fact that Abby was the scientist, safe in her lab, while I was his agent, that I had to be taught or I'd find myself on the wrong end of a knife or gun again. Finally there was the lovable Dr. Mallard, or Ducky as I'd come to call him, he was our medical examiner, Ducky had a tendency to talk to his patients, despite the fact that they couldn't talk back, although given the length of many of his anecdotes, perhaps the reason he spoke with the dead so often and with such conviction was because they were the only ones who would listen. Ducky had helped me get over my fear of blood with some help from Abby, though the smell of it still makes my stomach turn I could now handle it which was essential in the field.
I liked my new life, but I sometimes on rainy nights I would be overcome by a wave of grief and loss. Just because I had some to terms with Edward's decision didn't mean I had to like it. These nights were rare, but the feelings they invoked in me tore through my system violently. It was after one of these rainy nights that were dark in more ways than one that I got the call to go to my most difficult case ever.
We were all sitting around the office discussing the best horror movie of all time when Gibbs walked in. In true Gibbs fashion he walked to his desk, grabbed his gun and said, "Dead marine just outside of Arlington, one suspect already in custody, grab your gear and go." We all grabbed our guns and badges and trooped out to the truck and sedan.
When we arrived at the crime scene it was not a pretty sight. The dead marine had obviously been raped before she'd been killed, and she had definitely fought back. Her finger nails were all broken and there was blood on her clothes that I didn't think had been completely a product of the knife protruding from her side.
"Well that was nice of the bastard," said Tony, "They don't usually leave us a murder weapon, saves me some digging."
I walked over to the girl with the camera taking pictures of everything and anything that could be useful. "Time of death Ducky?" I heard Gibbs ask behind me.
"Jethro you know I can't tell you that with any degree of certainty until I get him back to autopsy."
"Gimme your best guess Duck."
"No more than nine hours or so," Ducky replied, "Mr. Palmer bring out the stretcher for our newest patient if you please."
I walked up to Gibbs, "You said they had a suspect in custody," I began, " do you want me to go…" I trailed off. Everyone had their place in Gibbs's team, McGee was the geek, Tony was the tough guy, Ziva was the best shot, and I was the best interrogator. Everyone had different styles of interrogation, but mine was usually the most effective, the thing was, most criminals thought that they could trust me to just listen, and I always knew what questions to ask.
"What do you think Swan?" Gibbs responded to my question, "No, I want you to stand there and hold my coffee."
"Right boss, I'll just go see about him then." I walked over to a police car, flashed my badge to the officers and opened the door to see the handcuffed suspect. You can imagine my surprise when it was none other than Edward Cullen.

Shawangunk Wine Trail
The Shawangunk Wine Trail is located in the Hudson River Valley Wine Region and is home to the Oldest Winery in America, the oldest vineyard in America and is the least recognized wine region in New York. We are looking for a progressive, fun, abstract image to help us virally promote our organization. Our organization "The Shawangunk Wine Trail" is a mouthful, not easy to spell or remember, so we've decided to shorten it as a tag phrase and use the word "Gunk" as the root word for many of our spin off ideas. "get gunked" We are a collection of diverse wineries which host 4 annual events per year. The purpose of our organization is to sell tickets to our events and bring visitors to the region to explore the individual wineries and see what our wine region has to offer. Wine is FUN and we want our logo to represent that.
Our target audience is quite diverse, ranging from 21 year old new wine drinkers, to 70 year old wine drinkers. Of course, we are looking to tap into the demographic of wine consumers, which is women 30-50 years old, but we also want to appeal to the gentlemen.
We want to see all of YOUR ideas. We want abstract. We don't want to see pigeon-hole the grape cluster as our logo. We'd like to perhaps use a barrel, or a stick figure holding a glass of wine, coming out of a barrel, the letter "G" upper or lower case, the work gunk, gunked, gunky, funky, you get the idea. Some key words given by some of our board members: simple, upbeat, abstract, fun, educational, friendly, interesting, surprising, relaxing, agricultural, beautiful, diverse, high quality, rewarding, evolving, influential, flavor, culture, historical, roots, iconic. The name of our Wine Trail is derived from the Shawangunk Mountain Ridge. We'd also like to emphasize the Hudson River, as it's the most widely recognized body of water in our area. The contrast of the Hudson River Valley and the Shawangunk Ridge is what makes a beautiful, diverse, and picturesque backdrop for our wineries

TORONTO—The greats of hockey's past are seriously concerned about the game's future.
On the red carpet for the Hockey Hall of Fame's induction ceremony on Monday night, the NHL's 58-day lockout was a prime topic of conversation, with former players and executives alike expressing both hope for the best and fear for the worst.
More Hall: Class of 2012 | Best of speeches
And they know that the effects of top-flight pro hockey's absence go beyond the NHL and NHLPA.
"The game is great" Hall of Famer Brett Hull told Sporting News. "What needs to happen is, the owners and players need to be able to get together, and, OK, this is the third work stoppage in a relatively short period of time (since 1994). They need to figure out right now how to fix it, and so it doesn't happen again, because, let's face it, we're not baseball, we're not football, we're not basketball. We're kind of the fourth kid in the major sport market, and if you keep doing this, the fans are going to leave—and we need the fans.
"Everybody knows what's at stake, and everybody knows people are losing money—I have friends who work in Dallas at the arena, and they're losing money. It's not just the owners and players. It's everybody."
Lockout: Could the right deal get done quickly?
Even when the NHL returns to action, and the money begins to flow again, nobody knows how much damage the lockout will have done. The challenge figures to be particularly steep for newer teams whose fanbases are not as well entrenched.
"For us in Florida, we finished with a good year last year, sold out in the playoffs, and there was a lot of interest for us into the summer," said Bill Torrey, the Hall of Fame general manager who constructed the New York Islanders' dynasty and is now the Panthers' alternate governor. "So, it's going to make our work that much tougher. We're going to have to go out and work hard, and promote. The Heat, obviously, have a big following there now, a good team, obviously, with big names. And the Dolphins, we're right in football season now. In a sense, if we're going to miss games, this is the time of year to miss games, but it's tough to really restart in a non-normal hockey market."
Even in the most normal of hockey markets, the lockout is bringing pain and concern. While the Maple Leafs-Red Wings game on New Year's Day has not yet been canceled, the Winter Classic has—if Toronto and Detroit face off, it will be at Joe Louis Arena, not Michigan Stadium.
"I think people will accept it if they start playing again soon," said Dino Ciccarelli, who spent four seasons of his Hall of Fame career with the Red Wings, and lives in Michigan. "But I think it's getting to the point, in Michigan, where the fans are getting impatient. I think if they get to Christmas, it's really going to hurt the game. It's really disappointing, not only the league, but the Winter Classic especially, with 110,000 at Michigan Stadium, and the alumni games sold out, hotels sold out. Everything was sold out. It was obviously great for the community, and really disappointing for all the fans and people in Michigan and in Canada, in Windsor. It's too bad, but they're going to get the next Winter Classic, one way or another. But it's time to get back to negotiating and play again soon."
One of Ciccarelli's old teammates, a Hall of Famer in his own right, believes that is what will happen, even as negotiations between the owners and players have appeared to go sour.
"I'm very positive it's going to be resolved in a couple of weeks," Igor Larionov said. "Two weeks, three weeks, we'll see the game back in shape and the players playing. ... It's all business, let me put it that way, the North American way. So, hopefully, the NHL and the union, they have a few more rounds of negotiations, find common sense, and get the game going. If you're going to lose the hockey for a whole year, that's big trouble."
One question is whether the NHL and NHLPA truly realize the trouble that looms, given the league's success in rebounding from the canceled 2004-05 season.
"I think one of the dangers, the main dangers, is that the fans and the game are taken for granted, that it's going to come back to the same health it was before," Hall of Famer Mike Gartner said. "I think what happens is, you look at the last time it happened, coming back to record attendance and record profits... I think the tendency can be, and I don't think it's consciously, is to take all that for granted. There's real danger in that. I sense there's more danger now than there has been in the past."

Tapestry necesitaba un nuevo diseño de otro y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 6 diseños de 6 diseñadores freelance.
Storyline for Illustration:
Owners and developers of timeshare resorts feel they are being held hostage by the airlines. The owners and guests must fly to the timeshare resorts because of the locations and the airlines know that. Therefore only allocate enough airplanes to serve the market with relative full airplanes. Therefore they are able to charge very high prices for these flights compared to other locations where the customer has more options. This makes it hard for the timeshare developers to make additional timeshare sales and also makes it more challenging for current owners to come and spend money.
Timeshare Owner/Developers in Mexico and Investors.
We are looking for a vector illustration that depicts the Storyline above. We are looking for an illustration with a group of men looking very unhappy (the timeshare owners/developers) dressed in business casual attire held hostage by a group of several airline pilots. Please use your creative license and have fun!
It has been suggested that the group of unhappy men are behind bars and the airline pilots have their arms crossed across their chest smiling and smirking. It might be also nice to have an airplane in the background. The number of unhappy men and pilots doesn't matter, it just needs to work for the graphic. As a reference point the group of developers we are dealing with is 7 and the number of airlines is probably 6 if that helps. The airlines are AeroMexico, Mexicana, USairways, Alaska, Continental and American.
The message to be conveyed by the illustration is "Held hostage by the airline industry."
We are looking for proportions that would fit a 8.5x11" landscape size.
If you have any questions, please let me know. Have fun!

Ulcers associated with wisdom teeth?28 messages in this subject.
|Does anyone else get an association with an incidence of ulcers when your wisdom teeth flare up? I dont know which is worse - to be honest.
Its only in the last 2 years that I have had such bad mouth ulcers. I dont just get one now - I get about 5 - 10 all over my mouth - my tongue, gums, back of the throat etc..
I feel like I cant eat or drink, and feel dirty.
I have been reduced to tears over the pain and discomfort.
Does anyone else know what I mean?
|Pippy 18 October 05
|I completely understand how you feel.
I had one wisdom tooth out two years ago as my mouth was constantly on fire with inch long ulcers around where the tooth rubbed on my gum and cheek......it was the best thing that I ever did. Though I am now finding that another wisdom tooth is aggravating the other side of my mouth and so when I summon up the courage Im going to get that one whipped out too......
Can you get yours removed?
Hope you get some relief soon
|Lucie 18 October 05
|I would never have thought of this, but I think you are both right. All 4 of my wisdom teeth are half out of the gum and have flared up quite bad in the last three weeks. Coincidentally i have had really painful clusters of ulcers on the tip of my tongue on and off for the past three weeks.
I havent really found much that relieves the pain, however I did try drinking cranberry juice all day today as I was told this helps and my tongue does actually feel bearable now.
Good luck to you all and please let me know if you find that miracle cure for these evils little things.
|Emz 18 October 05
What have you tried for pain relief
I take Vit B complex daily, use SLS free toothpaste and Adcortyl in oralbase when I do get them. If I have pain when eating then I use Anbesol - it numbs the area enough to eat but the pain quickly reappears but I love my food so I NEED to eat or I get MAJOR strops on!
|Lucie 20 October 05
|is this a trigger for ulcers? i have never had as bad an attack as i am having now, and i dont know if the wisdom tooth coming through is just a painfull coincedence or the reason, if so, does anyone have a good way of halting them as they are starting to get everywhere
|iain simpson 26 October 05
|Will I ever be able to eat solid foods again?? I got bronchitis last week and I went to the doctor he gave me an antibiotic, I started taking it then shortly after I noticed that I was getting ulcers on my wisdom teeth, I was told by the dentist that I wont have to get them out but I guess I thought he might of made a mistake so I scheduled a dentist appt, for next week. The next day I could barely talk its like they multiplied overnight. It seems to get worse when I sleep. I wake up and I have 3 to 4 more. I went back to the doctor and he put me on some steroid and some perscription mouth wash. I hope that this will take care of it. I feel bad for anyone that has to go through this pain, even being sick was alot better then this. I hope that it was just an alergic reaction to the meds. I never had this before, hopefully Ill never have it again..
|joeavg 29 October 05
|i was wondering at first why i have this mouth sore in my mouth..i thought because i usually hit the back part of my gums with the toothbrush and it became mouth sores..but then i realize that my wisdom tooth has been half out..since then mouth sores keep on appearing..
is it really because of the wisdom tooth coming out that we all having this painful mouth sores?
it really bothers me alot..and its painful to eat...
|ianne 10 july 11 10 July 11
|Hi, I recently got mouth ulcers at the very back of my mouth down by my molars, I do apply bonjela but this only works for
a while. Also when applying the bonjela using a cotton bud I not pus on the bud. I am only 12 so I am a bit scared. Eating is hard but I am very hungry. Which foods can aggravate this?? Thank you
|Hana 20 August 13
|How in the hell do you numb the pain for these things!!!! I'm going insane it hurts so bad!
|Ali 11 March 14
|i am having the same problem..persistant ulcer in the wisdom tooth from year and it is not coming out.although its not at all painfull but i am scared that i may get cancer
|dhaval rao 14 March 14
|So sorry to hear you're going through this :(
I used to get them so much when I was younger (I'm 21 now). With age they have decreased in frequency for me, and that's what I've heard happened for others I know. The most I ever had at one time was in the upper 20's, 26 I think. Absolutely miserable! Orajel was a joke, hardly ever worked longer than 5 minutes. Zilactin B helped a lot; burns like crazy for a few seconds, but then it was all numb for quite a while and I could hurry and eat in peace.
Nowadays though, I'd recommend going to the dentist. The one I go to, they have some type of laser that kills of bacteria or something, reduces the time the ulcer is there by a lot! Absolutely wonderful! I'll look up any natural remedies I had (eased pain, not get rid of ulcer). Braces were a terrible painful time, but I got through it all and so can you!
I will say though that my bottom wisdom teeth are coming in, so far nothing had happened. Imt somewhat hesitant to have then taken out though because I'm afraid ulcers will form where they did surgery at. Anytime I get a tear or cut in my mouth I get an ulcer, so I shudder at imagining what might happen from a surgery!
|Eric 30 October 14
|This is terror at it's best, don't know why it's called wisdom teeth: what kind of wisdom am I getting from this pain that wakes me up at night. My Wisdom teeth is half out since the beggining of the year and on checking now what causes the pain I notice it's yet onother ulcer on the wisdom tooth# how may I be helped with this umbearable pain?
|Cynthia Sesi Mdluli 18 December 14
|I have the exact same problem. My final wisdom tooth (thank the lord) is starting to come through. Every time i have a new wisdom tooth cutting through, an ulcer appears right above it on the gum. So when i eat and open and close my mouth the ulcer gets caught. It hurts so bad!! The only thing ive been able to get is bonjela and even that takes ages to dissolve it. I've been in agony all week :( and for the past 2 years as i wait for them to come through! What is the point of wisdom teeth?! they just bring pain!!!!!!!!!!!!
|Aimee 9 April 15

|mary 19 February 16
|Oohhh thats the worst thing to experience, the wisdom tooth growth is causing me so much pain to top it all I get ulcers on my gums, tongue n mouth top , I cant eat, brushing teeth is sush a painful task.........pls help
|thando kotane 12 March 16
|Hello friends I can understand your feelings and pain because also I'm going through this from last 3 years. I will explain exactly what happen, first when your wisdom teeths coming out it breaks the scene just above the teeth it pains a lot. Pain will stop after some days but it pains after every one or two months until your all wisdom tooths are come out. While it pains you may notice some things are happen like little bit fever in body, ulcers in mouth, littlbit dots on your upper lip due to fever, pressure on other teeths. This is normal and you have to go through this while your wisdom teeths are in progress to come out.
This might help.
|Santosh 26 April 16
|Chew Raw Garlic, painful but it works plus Garlic is very strong natural antibiotic
|Maher Dhaouadi 20 July 16
|Hello my wisdom teeth are acting up and very painful. I noticed I have a very painful ulcer under my tounge no where near the wisdom tooth and small red painful dots at the back of my tounge. Are these sore related to the wisdom teeth flare up or are they from something else? Please help.
|Jrk 20 July 16
|It sounds like there is not enough room for your wisdom teeth, the constant rubbing against your gum causes ulcers & inflammation. It's best to speak to your dentist they will organise X-rays to see exactly where the wisdom teeth are growing & determine if they need to be removed. Antibacterial mouth wash may help x
|Jasmin 26 October 16
|Ive been having mouth ulcers for 11 days now and I really beileve that wisdom teeth are the cause of it. It sucks because its making my teeth ache and when i stretch my cheek away from them, the pain goes away. it also makes me think my bite is off. Getting them out tomarrow hopefully that makes the sores go away.
|Amy 17 November 16
|I get all of these pains and aches this is my 3 one coming in so I know the 4th will be hell. I thought at first it was my tonsils because the swelling in my gums and tonsils, but find out a day later my tooth says hello. So for canker sores I use the little patches Walgreens sells. Helps a lot. For the inside of my mouth and molars I use triple strength orajel constantly throughout the day. Salt gargles and mouth rinses constantly keep the swelling and pain minimal and also ibuprofen or and NSID related antiinflamatory. And as for the tongue... those pesky dead taste buds that appear... this hurts like hell for about one second but afterward no more pain. But I pull the dead taste bud off completely. U will drool and tear up but put a cold compress on it . Not ice u don't wanna shock the nerves. And in about 7 mins no more tongue pain :)
|Crooklyn 1 December 16
|I always find dissolvable multivitamins always help with mouth ulcers. It generally can mean your body is lacking something.
|Sonya 10 February 17
|Try applying Alum on your sores. My husband gets them without the teeth issues and it helps really quickly, I found this solution online. Just applied on mine (due to wisdom tooth growing) and hopefully will feel better soon... You get it in the spices section at the grocery stores.
|Nadiya 18 April 17
|OMG so it is not just me!! I have on oh my uvla. It is gross and it hurts!! It' is more uncomfortable then the extraction! I believe there was more trama to that one side during my wisdom teeth extractions, which may be why I got it. I am glad I know that it is normal after such a procedure. However, I am READY for it to be gone!!
|Pippin2 25 November 17

Template:Article summary start Template:Article summary text Template:Article summary heading Template:I18n entry Template:Article summary heading Template:Article summary wiki Template:Article summary end Today you can do almost everything in Linux, or specifically in Arch Linux.
So what do you do with your desktop or laptop? Play music? Play games? and play movies/videos?
Today the most popular video files are .avi and .rmvb... and of course more and more .flv and .mp4... that's another story.
You can easily find many applications to play .avi, but it seems no article in Arch Wiki talked about .rmvb yet.
Let me be the first one then, :)
The most simple way is to install VLC, which plays .rmvb now, as well as many other video format.
$ sudo pacman -S vlc
Or if you have logon as root:
# pacman -S vlc
Or you can install RealPlayer 11 Gold via AUR, a little bit more steps:
Follow the article to install Yaourt and related programs. You will not be regret, because Yaourt can bring you many useful new options like chromium browser.
Also we assume you have installed and can use one of the editor in command line, nano or vim or vi, etc.
Then let's install RealPlayer 11 Gold, the one we will use to play rmvb:
$ yaourt -S realplayer
Choose no to ignore edit of PKGBUILD for this time. Then choose yes for download and build.
This would end up fail for the first time after download the rpm file, because this package is out of date, it will report the md5sum is wrong. Don't worry, let's do the next step anyway:
$ cd /tmp/yaourt-tmp-master/realplayer/
You will find RealPlayer11Gold.rpm here, let's find out the right md5sum:
$ md5sum RealPlayer11GOLD.rpm
Copy or write down the return value, just the big number, no space or file name included. Then run yaourt again:
$ yaourt -S realplayer
Ok, this time choose yes for PKGBUILD, it will ask you what editor do you want to use, it's up to you, whatever you want, nano or vim or vi. Then you'll easily find the md5sum in the file, just replace the exiting one with the md5sum you got for our rpm file. Save the file and exit your editor.
Now you can continue build and install RealPlayer11, by choose yes, yes, yes...
Done, now start it by:
$ realplay &
First time run it will start a wizard to config network etc., basically just next, next, next...
When it's finished, you can choose a rmvb file to play, it runs perfect on my pc, as my alsa is set up. If you didn't config your sound yet, follow this article to do it: ALSA
This should be all, you may want to add realplay in your menu, or if you are using gnome or KDE it should already in the menu. I'm using fluxbox, so I just edit ~/.fluxbox/menu to add a line for it. Or if you are using launchers like dmenu or bashrun, they will find realplay for you.
Good luck!

In an effort to keep Pennsylvania roadways safe during the Independence Day holiday period, PennDOT and law enforcement agencies across the state are partnering to crack down on impaired drivers.
The initiative is part of a national "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over" enforcement effort which runs through July 8.
In addition to stepped-up enforcement on roadways, the Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission (PFBC) reminds people taking to the state's waterways that Waterways Conservation Officers will be on the lookout for impaired watercraft operators through the boating season.
"The Independence Day holiday is a time to celebrate with friends and family, but we should always celebrate safely," PennDOT Secretary Barry J. Schoch said. "No matter whether you're driving a vehicle or a boat, never drive under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Designate a driver ahead of time or arrange for a ride home."
According to PennDOT data, there were 355 alcohol-related crashes and 20 fatalities in those crashes from Friday, June 29, to Sunday, July 8, last year. This is an increase from 2011, when there were 325 crashes and 14 fatalities from Friday, July 1, through Sunday, July 10.
PFCB data shows that 60 people were arrested for boating under the influence in 2012. BUI penalties can include jail time and fines.
"Operating a boat or other watercraft when you've been drinking creates a danger for everyone on the water," Fish and Boat Commission Executive Director John Arway said. "Alcohol impairs your ability to operate a boat safely. For the safety of all individuals on the water, please do not operate your boat, jet ski, canoe or kayak if you've been drinking."
The legal blood-alcohol content in Pennsylvania is 0.08 for motorists over the age of 21. For underage drivers, the blood-alcohol limit is 0.02 percent. DUI penalties can include jail time, license suspension and fines of between $500 and $5,000.
"Our enforcement efforts play a key role in protecting the public, but we need the cooperation of every motorist to put an end to impaired driving," State Police Commissioner Frank Noonan said. "Each individual has a responsibility to stay out of the driver's seat if he or she is impaired by alcohol or other drugs."
Pennsylvania's DUI Task Force, the Pennsylvania State Police and local law enforcement statewide will conduct checkpoints and roving patrols as part of the impaired-driving crackdown. Funding comes from part of PennDOT's statewide distribution of $4.2 million in federal funds from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Visit www.JustDrivePA.com for more information on impaired driving and PennDOT's other traffic-safety initiatives.

Bandos Travel Guide
Bandos © Shayan Sanyal
The Maldives resort island of Bandos is located in the North Malé Atoll, a convenient 20-minute boat ride from the airport. Bandos is an idyllic setting for a tropical holiday, with white sand beaches and crystal-clear lagoons ringing lush green vegetation, and numerous palm trees swaying in the breeze. It is a very popular resort which consistently receives rave reviews from visitors. Bandos is primarily a family resort, or a romantic getaway for couples.
There is plenty to do in Bandos for active holidaymakers, including scuba diving, sailing, windsurfing and game fishing. The resort has facilities that include tennis and squash courts, swimming pools, saunas, gyms, and a salon and spa. There is also nightly entertainment, though not lively enough to satisfy younger vacationers looking for a party. Bandos is a great destination for romantic getaways and honeymoons and they host weddings frequently. It is a peaceful and beautiful resort.
Bandos has a boutique shop, a souvenir shop and a jewellery store at the resort; visitors should be able to find all they might need for their stay but the shopping is very limited. Those who want to experience the Maldivian markets should take a boat ride through to Malé where there are ample shopping opportunities and souvenirs will be far cheaper than at the resort.
Bandos has several good restaurants, from buffets to 24 hour eateries, there is a fair selection available to visitors of the island. There are also several bars which serve seafood, snacks and drinks, made all the more special because visitors can dine under the stars. For those with a more discerning palate, there are even some marvellous fine dining restaurants for those special occasions. The restaurants cater for all dietary needs, although guests are encouraged to inform the resort of their special needs before their arrival to ensure that they are well catered for.
Nighttime entertainment is limited at Bandos, which caters mainly to couples and those seeking a peaceful island retreat. There are nightly events like karoake, live music concerts, buffets on the beach, cultural shows, traditional dance lessons, discos and movie screenings, but there is no clubbing scene. Those looking for a party on holiday would have a better time elsewhere.
There is a gym at Bandos, free for all guests, which offers tennis, badmington, volleyball and the like. Popular watersports include snorkelling, windsurfing, sailing, water skiing, parasailing, banana boat riding, wakeboarding, and canoeing. There is also great scuba diving in the area and Bandos is well-known for having a wonderful dive centre. For the less active, the Orchid Spa offers a number of luxurious treatments, and there are plenty of activity rooms where time can be spent watching movies or playing board games. Fun excursions from the resort include night fishing, shopping trips to the capital, sunset dolphin cruises and much more.
Bandos is primarily a family resort and some guests complain that the children at the resort can be disruptive.
