There is a place within southern Africa that soars toward the heavens, rising to a majestic height of 3482 meters and stretches along the south eastern flack of the African continent for more than 1000kms. This place is known as the Drakensberg. Translated to Dragon Mountain, it is the highest mountain range in southern Africa and possesses dramatic, overpowering natural beauty.
The Drakensberg lends itself to the fantasy of an enchanted remote landscape filled with the altitudes of golden yellow sandstone, gaping rock chasms, ballistic jagged peaks and towering mountainous stone. The plummet of rugged heights are cutback and broken into networks by the flow of intruding river valleys and the greenery of grasslands, which adds to the pristine beauty of one of South Africa's Natural World Heritage Sites.
Allow the Drakensberg Mountain Range to leave you spellbound while hiking or exploring the many nooks, crannies and caves that curves into the vertical surface of ancient cliffs. Discover the diverse landscapes of the Drakensberg, which protect a large array of endemic and endangered wildlife species, especially birds and plants.
Before you reach Drakensberg, we suggest you explore the Midlands of KwaZulu-Natal. The tree-lined pathways will lead you to many quaint towns filled with the eclectic mixture of Zulu culture, history and traditional crafts. The lush green fields and pine forests surround glistening dames and lakes, and the majestic flow of magnificent waterfalls lend itself to the perfect and most serene picnic spots in Africa. A perfect balance of dramatic mountainous force, majestic natural serenity, culture coupled with history; and heritage, all for you to discover.
Access Details
By road, the Drakensberg is situated approximately 4 hours from the city of Johannesburg and 3 hours form Durban. Both Durban and Johannesburg airports are accessed by daily international and national flights.
Suggested Stay Details
The Drakensberg is a great family holiday destination. Most of the accommodation offer a resort experience with a range of activities. We propose a minimum of 3 nights.
Type of Experience
The dramatic landscape of the Drakensberg is one of the most remote and historically significant areas in southern Africa. As a cultural and natural World Heritage Site, the mountain range possesses the most concentrated collection of rock paintings in southern Africa. These rock paintings are reminders of the San people who occupied and hunted in the region for more than four millennia. Journey back in time and explore the richness of more than 35000 bushman paintings dispersed over 600 different sites.
The Midlands Meander is reported to be the first of its kind in South Africa and is situated between Howick and Nottingham Road. Visit the charming towns situated in the Natal-Midlands and explore experience traditional Zulu culture. There are many art and craft centres from the Drakensberg into the Midland areas which are perfect to stock up on souvenirs from antique shops or galleries.
The low slopes of the Drakensberg are largely developed areas with hiking trails, resorts and hotels blending along the slopes of the mountain. Protected areas include Himeville Nature Reserve, Sehlabathebe National Park, Sterkfontein Dam and Royal Natal National Park. The Natal Midlands offer serene countryside scenes and luxurious farm houses and lodges.
Consisting of layers of basalt and sandstone, the mountain range is coloured by light browns to rustic oranges. The rugged landscape is cut by river valleys, high grounds have many waterfalls and the slopes are covered in grass plains. The Natal Midlands are lush in pastures and pine forests surround lakes and dams.
The areas of the Drakensberg are believed to have human occupation dating back to 1 million years ago. Rock art indicates ancestral relations to the San hunter-gathers. During the 13th century, farmers occupied the hills and slopes and in the 16th century, the Zizi and Tholo occupied the northern and central regions of the Drakensberg. With the rise of Zulu power, lead by Shaka Zulu, many were forced to migrate northward into the Drakensberg in the 19th century.
Arriving in 1837, Voortrekkers occupied the foothill regions of the mountain, farming and hunting which caused conflict between them and the San until the 1930s. During the 1860s and 1870s, conflict between these two groups caused the demise of the San tribes.

- Abstract:
- The purpose of this qualitative method case study was to explore teachers' observational practices and beliefs about child narrative observation. The participants were six early childhood teachers and 15 children—two teachers and five children in each of three classrooms. The study was conducted in a private kindergarten. Teachers' classroom practices were seen via participant observations in the first phase. Qualitative structured individual and group interviews, field notes, and teachers' personal logs were used in this multiple case study to generate the data set and for narrative assessment analysis. In accordance with the literature on child-observation which asserts that systematic narrative observation facilitates the establishment of a quality relationship between the teacher and the child (Howes & Ritchie, 2002; Jablon, Dombro, & Dichtelmiller, 2007), the second phase included an intentional observation (IO) program designed by the author. The whole study lasted nine weeks, including both field observation and training in the IO program, which is a training program with distinct steps designed to foster observational skills, sensitivities, and behaviors in teachers. Before the researcher provided IO training, the six teachers drew their own logos and sketches of the children, and wrote lines of poetry describing the children. These activities were included to encourage the teachers to talk about individual children who were participating in the study; they were also encouraged to speak about their perceptions of and beliefs about teaching in early childhood education (ECE). Each teacher was interviewed three times over the course of the study upon completing the Student-Teacher Relationship Scale (STRS) (Pianta, 2001) for the five children in her iv classroom chosen for the case study. The STRS was administered to generate some of the interview questions about assessing and working with individual children. The participant teachers' satisfaction with and perceived usefulness of the IO training program were estimated via interviews. Finally, more information was gained in a reflective group dialogue session upon the termination of the study. Estimates of satisfaction with the program and its potential were based mainly on teachers' self-reported changes in their perspectives, along with discernible change patterns that surfaced over time in their personal logs. The data were used to describe the teachers' beliefs and practices. Results showed that five teacher-participants believed they were improving their relationship with their students, as well as their self-conceptualization and confidence as teachers. The sixth teacher was an exception— she, occasionally, showed resistance to apply the techniques, citing job demands. This study suggests that IO may be a useful means of enhancing a teacher's feeling of self-worth. The program might help the teacher to establish a better relationship with children, as well as being useful in improving teachers' attitudes towards and practices relating to ECE and the teacher-child relationship in ECE settings. Many challenges exist in applying the IO program in Saudi Arabia. Educational administrations have high expectations and make demands of teachers, requiring them to perform in certain ways. Another major challenge is the resistance of some teachers to surrender their pre-existing perceptions of and values relating to the nature of child-teacher interaction.

Letters to the Editor
Concerned business holds too much power
A report in The Bellingham Herald states that "Washington state regulators have recommended BNSF Railway be fined up to $700,000 for failing to properly report more than a dozen hazardous materials spills." This is an excellent opportunity for citizens to assess the state of regulatory capture in our country.
This has become a front burner issue since the 2008 financial crisis cost the American public an estimated $12.8 trillion, and yet no one was even charged with a crime, let alone successfully prosecuted and punished. This stands in contrast to the savings and loan crisis of the 1980s, which cost tax payers an estimated $160 billion (only 1.25 percent the cost of the 2008 crisis), and which resulted in more than 1,100 criminal prosecutions. My inference is that not only are banks too big too fail, they are too powerful to even prosecute for wrongdoing. Interestingly, according to a study published by a Princeton academic last year, it appears that our country might already be an oligarchy, concluding that "average citizens and mass-based interest groups have little or no independent influence" on American government. Do we live in a democracy, where government of the people, by the people, and for the people, holds power over all, or is that merely a thin veneer, a sham?
Here we have a microcosm. State regulators recommend fining BNSF $700,000. Let's see if it happens.

This year´s main topic of the Best Cooperation of the Year was analysis of evaluating financial success (or even failure) of investment into R&D in the private sector. Therefore, Association for Foreign Investment – AFI together with Technology Agency of the Czech Republic held the seventh year of this project. It took place in the premises of Česká spořitelna, Rytířská street, Prague on 5 June 2018.
The current concept of the event was different from the previous years. There was no competition for various projects involved as it used to be in the past. The key part of the evening was a moderated panel discussion on the topic of commercialisation of R&D in which four speakers took part with their projects that had proved, after several years from them being launched, to be successful not only in the Czech Republic but also in the foreign markets. The main goal of approximately one-hour-long discussion was not to present the projects in details but to focus on and talk about the cooperation between R&D and application sphere as such, projects´ pitfalls, examples of good practice, and recommendations for others. Jindřich Houžvička (CRYTUR), prof. Miroslav Václavík (VÚTS) together with Ján Pagáč (TOS Varnsdorf) and Karel Volenec (ELLA-CS) took part in the discussion which was moderated by Aleš Vlk. The panel discussion was followed by networking as an opportunity to evolve the ideas arisen during the first half of the event.
Kamil Blažek, Chairman of Association for Foreign Investment – AFI: "We believe that this project creates a suitable platform for all interested parties to meet and that it will ignite discussion, what criteria are really important to evaluate the commercialisation of R&D – thus will come with benchmarks for financial and commercial success of products. We consider talks about commercial success of Czech science to be very important as well as promoting examples of best practice which can be inspiring for other subjects."
In the past, the goal of this initiative used to be choosing and appraising the best innovative projects based on the cooperation of public and private sphere. What has remained the same is the idea to promote mutual projects between universities, R&D centres on one side and company sphere on the other, to motivate to intensify mutual cooperation and increase awareness about its significance.
Petr Očko, Chairman of Technology Agency of the Czech Republic: "All engaged companies have shown that cooperation with the academic sphere is beneficial for the private sector not only for exchanging know-how, research background but also in the synergic effect. Nevertheless, this cooperation requires a long-term communication. Therefore, we are glad that in case of all participating companies, Technology Agency helps building bridges between research and commercial sphere."
Silvana Jirotková, General Director of CzechInvest: "Cooperation of firms together with R&D sphere is one of the most important premises for their further successful development. CzechInvest has been gaining significant experience in this field for many years. This concerns not only Czech Republic but also international environment, thanks to which we are able to connect entrepreneurs with the right partners."
The event was held under the auspices of Prime Minister and Chairman for Science and Research Andrej Babiš, Minister of Industry and Trade Tomáš Hüner and Minister of Education, Youth and Sport Robert Plaga. The main partner was CzechInvest, partner Česká spořitelna, supporting partners were Czech Academy of Sciences, Czech Export Bank, Czech Trade, EGAP, Confederation of Industry of the Czech Republic, and Zátiší Group.

Creative title and wonky writing on a busy morning!
(I swear I can write straight when I try)
(EDIT: Yes. I definitely wrote 2011 first. What can I say I'm apparently stuck in the past. Thank goodness for photoshop! Hehe....)
From someone who is newly single but happily so (dat's me!) I hope you dedicate part of today to loving yourself too. Go for a walk - give love to your body. Wear something really pretty so you feel amazing. Have your favourite food no matter what diet you're on. Have a nice bath with bubbles and candles. Watch your favourite movie. Do your favourite thing.
Love yourself.
I'd say so much more. Love is one of my favourite things, not romantic love necessarily. Just love. And a whole day dedicated to it just makes me so happy. But I have class in two and a half hours and I need to make some cupcakes so. I might post again later!
Happy Valentine's Day. I love you guys :)

Brooklyn-based wallpaper company Grow House Grow has wonderfully narrative back-stories for their wallpaper collections. The Naturalists Collection, for instance, was inspired by the female scientists of the 19th Century whose work has largely fallen through the cracks of history. The three handprinted wallpapers in this collection celebrates their work and their courage in breaking the mold.
The wallpaper entitled Ms Treat is named for Mary Treat (1830-1923), whose love of carnivorous botanicals influenced Darwin's work. The wallpaper inspired by her work consists of a luscious wall of Pitcher Plants and mischievous Venus Flytraps (and perhaps an ant or two).
Mme. Jeanne is named for Jeanne Villepreux-Power (1794-1871) – a French dressmaker-cum-Sicilian naturalist who invented the world's first aquarium. Her love of the sea is reflected in this elegant, ascending mollusk scallop design.
See more of these intriguing designs and stories behind them at Grow House Grow.

My darling sister and her husband are expecting their first child this autumn, and I couldn't be more excited. This little girl is going to be the most loved, most talented, most beautiful woman the world has ever seen, and I get to be her aunt.
I take my duties as Awesome Aunt Emily very seriously, and so I have come up with a great gift for my niece: a starter library.
Obviously, such a library must have,
- The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis,
- Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maude Montgomery,
- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by JK Rowling,
- Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder, and
- Little Women by Louisa May Alcott,
but it might take her a little while before she can read those, so picture books are needed.
(Unless she's Matilda – need to include Matilda.)
So, there should also be,
- the Madeline books by Ludwig Bernelmans (especially Madeline and the Gypsies),
- the Amelia Bedelia books by Peggy Parish, and
- Princess Furball by Charlotte S. Huck.
And then there are the books that every child needs to have, no matter what:
- Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown and illustrated by Clement Hurd ,
- Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak,
- Anything and everything by Dr. Seuss,
- We're Going on a Bear Hunt by Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury, etc.
This has the potential to be really expensive…
But these are just books I like and that I think are important. I'd like to hear from you all:
What books do you think are necessary for children to read?
Are there any books you wish you had read as a child?
Are there books that you plan on read to your children some day?
Note – I want to buy books that will encourage my niece not to settle for being a Disney princess but to be a queen. Thus, I'm partial to books with strong female protagonists and decent, good male characters because I want her to have good influences in her life.
In other words, suggest Twilight or Gossip Girl and risk my wrath.

When I have a break from my day job and art creations, I take on side projects to do illustrations and designs for fellow artists and writers like a flyer for a show by local sculptor Mike Sirvet or contributing illustrations for a book by education nonprofit NumbersAlive!
Most recently, I designed the cover for The Lost Tribe of the Alleghenies, a wonderful novel by local Washington, DC author Alan Margolis. I thought I'd share with you the final design (featured above) and some of my early prototypes (below) we mulled over. Interested in buying his book? You can get it online at Politics & Prose!

Here we report on the clinical findings and key symptoms in WNT10A-related ectodermal dysplasias. The ectodermal dysplasias (ED) are a large, heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by defects in the morphogenesis of skin, sweat, sebaceous, submucous, and mammary glands, hair, nails and teeth. Numerous more or less distinct entities have been reported, however, most of them are very rare and the cause is often unknown. EDA mutations, resulting in hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (Christ Siemens Touraine syndrome) are known as the most common cause of ED. Over the last two years, WNT10A has turned out to be the second major gene associated with ED. WNT10A mutation carriers present with a broad and variable spectrum of symptoms related to at least four known Mendelian conditions as there are autosomal dominant Selective Tooth Agenesis Type 4 and autosomal recessive Adontia of Permanent Dentition (APD), Odonto-Onycho-Dermal Dysplasia (OODD), and Schöpf-Schulz-Passarge syndrome (SSPS). In heterozygotes, penetrance is reduced and only about half of the carriers show a phenotype including mainly tooth and nail anomalies. Approximately 8% of the unaffected individuals in our control group carried a WNT10A mutation. Further studies are necessary. We conclude that WNT10A mutation analysis might become an important diagnostic test in many patients with selective tooth agenesis or severe oligodontia concerning the permanent teeth.

It's like everything Pharrell touches turns into gold. Okay, well not literally but the multitalented star comes out strong yet again with his latest collaboration with Adidas. With eye-popping prints and colors, the Adidas x Pharrell, Jacquard Pack highlights Pharrell's iconic style and unique flair. Influenced by a visit to Paris' Marché Saint Pierre marketplace, Pharrell was inspired by it's history and two "seductive vintage floral fabrics," that are the basis of the capsule collection. It's kind of like turning up an N.E.R.D. track but instead of the crazy beat drops and the harmony of various instruments and sounds, we see it all come together in a classic track jacket and sneakers.
What Adidas is known for and does best, is sticking to the classics, because there's a longevity and tradition to sticking with the basics. It has become the foundation to their success. And with Pharrell's influence, there's freedom and a magical approach to the line. The collaboration is well-thought out and executed, with intricate stitching and attention to detail found in each individual piece. The highlight of the collection is the Superstar LIL'Jacket, which is limited to only 200 pieces worldwide. And what is an Adidas collection if it wasn't for the sneakers. One of the brand's all-time favorites, Stan Smith's, are designed to encompass that same flair and style. Both the jacket and sneaker come with two floral color ways: turquoise with gold and pink embroidery, and cream with red, gold and green.
You'll want to act quick because Jacquard Pack is limited to only 200 pieces per style. The wait ends May 30th.

The government has published chapter 2 of its childhood obesity action plan. While schools are mentioned in the document, much of Public Health England's plans revolve around fixing issues on the high street and on TV to dissuade children from being influenced by unhealthy foods, be it through advertising or having access to fast food outlets.
But what about school meals, which provide 190 meals every year to children, including those who are overweight or obese? How can schools play their part in reaching the government's target to halve childhood obesity by 2030?
There are some great examples of schools and caterers where they are encouraging pupils to make healthy choices. Some examples are covert – hiding veg in dishes, reducing protein and bulking out with healthy veg, or nudge tactics like placing the vegetarian dish first on the servery or changing the language on the menu so the veggie dish is just as attractive an option as the meat-based one.
Then, there is the educational approach: cookery lessons, food growing, farm visits, learning about sustainability, and health and wellbeing.
One day soon, we'll get there, but there is certainly a huge amount that schools and their caterers can be doing.
The EDUcatering Forum will highlight these examples and inspire delegates to implement changes that encourage healthy choices. Our keynote speaker will be Dr Jeremy Leach, an expert using the behavioural sciences to influence behaviour change. He will set the day up for how we can use new ways of thinking to address the issue of childhood obesity.
Speakers throughout the day will include the Food Foundation on the Veg Power marketing campaign; ProVeg on its School Plates plant-based eating campaign; and catering case studies from two of the biggest school caterers in the country, Chartwells and CH&CO, as well as Michael Hales, chair of LACA and MD of Juniper Ventures.
There will be an exciting cooking demonstration from Park Community School and its in-house chef, and a presentation from Scottish school meals association ASSIST FM on its Inch by Inch for Scotland obesity programme.
We will also welcome Kate Morris and Sally Brown, children's cookery authors and TV consultants, creators of CBeebies cookery programmes I Can Cook and My World Kitchen. They will discuss how forming good food habits in early years could be the answer we've all been looking for and how The Flavour School method could mean children are arriving at primary school with positive attitudes to eating their five-a-day.
Have you booked your place at the EDUcatering Forum yet? Tickets cost just £20 and can be booked online. The one-day conference takes place on 28th November at Haberdashers' Hall in London.

'Dragon Ball FighterZ' Story Mode cutscene, gameplay for new characters revealed
New details are released recently for 'Dragon Ball FighterZ' revealing the game's Story Mode and
New videos about one of the most important parts of the upcoming game "Dragon Ball FighterZ" were recently released. These give fans a sneak peek at what to expect in the Story Mode of the 2.5 D fighting title from Arc System Works. In addition to the new cutscene, another video showcasing the gameplay of two newly confirmed characters in the game is also available now. The trailer shows the fan-favorite members of the Z Warriors - Tien Shinhan and Yamcha.
New cutscene
One of the major video game's events is happening now in Tokyo, Japan, and fans are expecting more announcement will be made for "Dragon Ball FighterZ." True enough Bandai Namco Entertainment is now showcasing demos at the Tokyo Game Show, highlighting the eleven playable characters in the game.
These are the same characters that are included in the Closed Beta of the 2.5 D fighting title that started last week. Fans present at the event are enjoying the trailers that feature Teen Gohan, Goku, Vegeta, Future Trunks, Krillin, and Piccolo. In the video characters like Android 16, Android 18, Cell, Frieza, and Majin Buu can also be seen.
Interestingly, there are additional trailers that are shown in the event as part of the team's presentation for the upcoming fighting title. The first video is the Story Mode cutscene.
It stars Goku, Krillin, Android 18, and the newly introduced character—Android 21. The trailer reveals that Android 21 is a doctor trying to help Android 18. Goku and Krillin are shown watching Android 21 does her job.
Several weeks ago, Bandai Namco Entertainment confirmed that the upcoming title will have a different story mode. According to the game publishing titan, the story mode will be a departure from its previous game installments as it will not be based on the Manga or the Anime series of the franchise. It was also disclosed that the story will revolve around Android 16 and Goku and his team will face new enemies that look exactly like them.
New gameplay trailer
Aside from the Story Mode cutscene, another trailer is shown at the Tokyo Game Show. The video reveals the gameplay for two of the recently confirmed playable characters in the fighting title—Yamcha and Tien Shinhan. Both fighters are shown be strong and powerful in the video. You can check out the two new videos below.
"Dragon Ball FighterZ" is scheduled to arrive in February 2018. The 2.5D fighting title by Arc System Works will be released on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

Investment Principles
Here are ten important principles (from Warren Buffett) that we have incorporated into our investment philosophy.
- Rule No.1: Never lose money.
- Rule No.2: Never forget rule No.1.
- Ensure that you have an adequate margin of safety.
- It's far better to buy a wonderful company at a fair price, than a fair company at a wonderful price.
- Wide diversification is only required when investors do not understand what they are doing.
- A public-opinion poll is no substitute for thought. In the short run, the stock market is a voting machine. In the long run, it is a weighing machine.
- Stay within your circle of competence.
- Only buy something that you'd be perfectly happy to hold if the market shut down for 10 years.
- We simply attempt to be fearful when others are greedy and to be greedy only when others are fearful.
- We are not looking for a needle in a haystack. We are looking for haystacks.
For more explanation on some of these principles, click here.
Investment Research Process
We pride ourselves in having one of the most thorough research processes in the industry. We perform:
- Comprehensive company financial statement analysis: We scrutinize each company's annual report, proxy statement, quarterly statements and calls, and other financial documents as they are published.
- Competitive and market analysis: We test the competitive advantage of each company by comparing it against its competitors, observing and interviewing its customers, and asking feedback from the company's employees or suppliers.
- In-depth financial valuation: We do not blindly accept the average estimates that investment analysts provide. We make adjustments to both inputs and outputs based on each company's accounting methodology, management and track record.
Investment / Execution Strategy
Our primary focus will be to invest in individual stocks; however we will consider individual bonds, mutual funds, real estate investment trusts and commodities when appropriate.
Individual Stocks
- We typically invest in 5-20 companies (stocks) at any given time.
- We create starter positions and invest in great companies as long as the stock price is not overvalued.
- We intentionally keep some cash ready in order to aggressively invest and take advantage of opportunities when the stock price reaches a sizable margin of safety.
- We believe that stocks are not simply pieces of paper that are traded, or an electronic price that changes in value. Stocks represent an opportunity to become a part owner in a business.
- Most stock investors focus on short term market movements. Our long-term perspective will allow us to capitalize on short-term overreactions to fear and greed.
Individual Bonds
- We typically do not invest in bond funds, because it is subject to higher interest rate risk compared to holding individual bonds to maturity.
- We typically invest in fixed income using a bond ladder approach. Bond maturities will be based on your individual needs.
- We focus on safety of principal when investing in bonds. We do not try and reach out for higher yields that may increase the risk of incurring permanent losses of capital.

Geri Anderson
is one of our oldest Oaxaca friends. She made her living for years as a free-lance travel writer, and threw some magazine work my way when I really needed it. Her web site has been a source of valuable information for me over the years.
This week a couple dozen of us were invited to accompany her on the occasion of her 77th birthday, for an excursion to Guelatao (the birthplace of Benito Juarez) and nearby Ixtlan.
Our destination was a trout farm / restaurant high above Ixtlan, where we were treated to a delicious comida. All the photos in this issue were taken along the way. The masthead photo was taken in Guelatao at the pond. If you visit, be sure to slather yourself with insect repellent, particularly below the knee: the chiggers are plentiful, and very hungry…
Spring Cleaning:
I'm cleaning out my virtual closet, and among other things, I have discovered some stored-for-later-use articles, a few incomplete articles, some forgotten notes: the accumulation that has fallen through the net of my memory, the weave of which seems to be getting larger. Some of the results of all this anal activity as well as some personal maunderings are available below…
A Public Life:
I didn't come to Mexico to be a pundit / columnist / prognosticator, and certainly not to be "Mr. Oaxaca". Honest, I didn't. Life is what happens between daydreams, and my daydreams bore little resemblance to my real life, then or now.
Nonetheless, here I am, and my life here, which I love, is what it is. I wrote some letters to a pal back home, and he put them in his newspaper and sent me a check. That's when "Letters from Mexico" became a monthly column with a deadline. Another friend who early understood the future of the Internet chided me into reproducing my Letters on his website. When it appeared that he might have to close his website, I moved my musings to Mexico Connect. At some point in all this peripatetic wandering, I started my own website, and at the urging of friends I started charging for what had become "The Oaxaca / Mexico Newsletter".
When I came to Oaxaca, I joined the Lending Library. One day, growing tired of hearing Ruth the Librarian complain about how much of her time was taken up by answering the same newcomers' questions over and over, I offered to hold a class for a couple of hours, twice a week. When asked, she could say she was really too busy at the moment, but come on by and ask Stan. I charged a small fee, and gave the Library 20%.
The church at Ixlan de Juarez, where Benito Juarez was baptised.
I met Diana at a Muertos party in 1994. Now, I am a "married" retired geezer living in Paradise, and have more than a few friends who credit me for having been the catalyst in their decision to live here, too.
Twenty years ago, I had savings to live on. Now, I depend on the income from my Newsletter for the "extras" that sweeten my life.
This puts me in a difficult position. On the one hand, the political and economic situations here have deteriorated in the last twenty years; on the other, bad news could turn down the enthusiasm of some folks who might otherwise decide to venture here, or even (heaven forefend) result in a loss of subscribers. It's a balancing act. I hope am doing it with some grace.
I know that some of you are not much interested in the politics, preferring the "lighter" pieces, while others appreciate my quirky viewpoint and writing style, or Diana's photos. I note that as Oaxaca gets to be a more popular retirement destination, more blogs are being written; and remind myself that very few of them charge for access. Those of us that charge are bucking the tide of a medium that is designed for a "free" exchange of information.
Subscriptions have been slowly dropping (although they seem to be picking up just now). I don't know if it's just the economy, or if it's the attraction of new destinations; if Oaxaca has "matured" as a destination, superannuating the Newsletter, or if there are too many other sources now; or if I've just grown stale.
Discontinuing the Newsletter, or giving it away to everyone, are not options: I need the money. I am disinclined to accept advertising on aesthetic grounds, and because I respect my readers' right to enjoy the Newsletter without distractons such as flashing exhortations. Any ideas?
The inside of the Ixlan church is covered with gold leaf. A lot of money got spent to do it. I wonder if any of it came from Benito's treasury…
A homily on the Library:
The Library is too small for all the events it plans; a complaint I share with some members of the Board and many other Library lizards. Everybody's aware of this on some level.
For whatever reason, those who use the Library are not keeping it solvent; and past fundraising efforts have at best proven to be only a temporary fix. Turning nearly every Library event into a fundraiser may please the tourists, bless them all, but also turns off a lot of folks. Uncle / Aunt Sugar will not die and donate a grand hacienda to our humble community. Nor does the Library have a functioning system for seeking endowments or bequests. What then is to be done?
I think that the Board is failing to think outside the box. The Library doesn't need to get bigger; it can easily handle the amount of books it has, and more, once it gets rid of all those other space- and attention- consuming "extra events".
I'm not sure where the lectures and multimedia events could be held, but I urge the Board to consider moving them.
Near the church entrance, a less gaudy, simpler ex voto…
The coffee shop doesn't make any money for the Library, and it takes up a lot of volunteer labor, and a whole lot of space. Keep a few tables for conver-sations, but stop with the bagels. If someone wants to hang out and chew the fat of a morning, they can pick up a coffee and their favorite snack along the way, in shops owned by local people which the present coffee shop is underselling.
If the Board insists on keeping it all together in one larger space, which most agree is not an affordable alternative, consider this: get the government (local, state, or federal) to donate the use of an empty building. There are some; more as the move to get out of the Center into more defensible locations continues to grow. It just takes knowing someone, or someone who knows that someone. The Board needs to quietly solicit help from members who have such connections. I wish I could help, but I don't know anyone like that. Do you?
"Orientation to Oaxaca" has moved:
Now that the "season" is ending, I am not going to be offering my "Orientation" sessions at the Library. Instead, I will be holding forth in restaurant "Santo Sabor", right next to our house, starting at 10:00 on Mondays. The earlier hours will serve several purposes. For example, it will be a whole lot cooler in the hot season and it will be dryer in the rainy season. Attendance will be free to all, with a donation box strategically placed on the way out. This will not affect my "private" by-appointment-only sessions, for which there will be a charge.
A real scholar / activist speaks:
It's always nice to run across someone who is thoughtful, intelligent, well-documented, and who pretty much agrees with me about the practical realities of power politics here in Mexico. Emphasis on the "agrees with me"…
There are a few folks around whose reporting I respect. Bill Stone is one of them. His recent article published on the OpEd News website, on the nexus between international capital, and the corporate class in Mexico – the "fast tracking" of so-called economic and social "reforms" – is well-documented, scholarly (but not dry), and puts current events in a proper historical perspective while examining some likely outcomes. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in going below the surface of "tourist Mexico". I have reproduced it here.
This shepherd boy tends his flock at the entrance to the pond / park in Guelatao
** For all of us who are of short attention span, this is a quick study on why it's a bad idea to privatize Mexico's oil:
Pemex estimates that the total of Mexico's remaining petroleum reserves is just under 113 Billion barrels. Of this, a majority of the reserves – 60 Billion barrels – is in controversial oil shale or in very difficult-to-tap places.
Pemex intends to control 31% of the proven reserves, and only 15% of the rest. This means that foreign corporations will control 62% of the proven reserves, and 85% of the "dirty" sources. Looks like a formula for ecological disaster to me…
** Is it "blockade season"? Between Antorcha Campesina (remember, they used to work for the PRI, and probably still do) – and the students and faculty at the teachers' schools – hardly a day goes by without a major blockade, and often two or three a day. Snarled traffic and slow detours can pop up anywhere, although the favorite spots seem to be near the baseball stadium and near the IMSS hospital. It's a pain in the neck for everyone, but given enough time, you can get around them.
** It's been bloody hot here lately. If you're coming down here anytime soon, find yourself a shady place to be in from 11 until 4, especially if you want to do anything in the sun. Fortunately, it does cool off at night: we sleep with the windows open, and a very light bed cover. We've been getting light rains at night lately, and MexCity got a hail storm the other night that closed all the main roads going west for many hours. Whether this is an anomaly, el nino, or the early beginning of the rainy season remains to be seen…
** I will be rearranging the website in the near future. I will remove the button title, "Other Artists…" and change it to "Realoaxaca Blogs". They will be strictly monitored, and will not function as a discussion group or a forum.
Each contributor will have his/her own "page", for written or photographic material. If you have something you would like to share with us, feel free to do so. Remember, it must have something to do with Oaxaca or Mexico travel or living. Send it to me in, or attached to, an email.
A photo of you would be nice, along with the address for any website with which you are associated. I'll let you know when this feature is ready…
This building, at the far end of the pond, is a library: light, airy, well maintained.
** A search engine has been added to the Realoaxaca website "home page". Using key words, it will search the entire site, not just the Newsletters…
** Sadly, friend and mezcál aficionado Earl Fish lost a leg this month. He had some blood clots which surgery couldn't remove, and amputation was required. He has returned to Minneapolis, where we both grew up, for needed therapy and a new leg. He will return some day, and we look forward to that. Last month, we wrote about the mezcal situation in Oaxaca. I mistakenly identified blue agave as being a mainstay of Oaxacan mezcal. It is not. Earl wrote about it almost a year ago, and what he wrote is as true today as it was then. To read about it in his own words, and to see some fine photos by Alan Goodin, click here.

If the Rangers score a goal tonight for the first time in four games, they will have to do it without Valery Kamensky.
The team announced yesterday that Kamensky, a 33-year-old left wing, would be sidelined for two weeks to rest his right forearm. Kamensky, who has missed six games because of a stress fracture, has scored just one goal but he hasn't been the only culprit in a teamwide offensive rut.
The Rangers have scored 21 goals in 12 games and will begin a tough stretch tonight in Montreal in which they will play nine of their next 12 games on the road.
The Rangers, losers of four straight games, signed Kamensky to a five-year, $21 million contract in the off season in the hopes that he and the other aging veterans -- Theo Fleury and Tim Taylor -- might ignite an offense that has been dormant for two-plus seasons.
Taylor, 30, played just 49 games for Boston last season, missing 32 games with an ankle injury and another with an injured groin. This season he has been ailing since the first day of training camp, when he had an appendectomy in Burlington, Vt. Since then, Taylor has had a concussion and a foot injury, and he underwent surgery to remove a splinter from his left palm.
Kamensky's injury has lingered for nearly a year. On March 14, Kamensky broke his right forearm, the result of a vicious slash by Kirk Maltby. Though Kamensky missed the last 15 games of last year's regular season and the first 9 games of the playoffs, he eventually returned for the latter part of Colorado's post-season run. He has not been right since.Continue reading the main story
Is Kamensky damaged goods, the result of his opting to have a steel plate inserted, which Colorado team doctors advised against last spring? Kamensky, after all, realized he was a pending free agent. He and Colorado Coach Bob Hartley's relationship had deteriorated to the point where Kamensky was getting little playing time before he was hurt. And there are those who believe that Kamensky did everything he could to heal as soon as possible so he could play before the playoffs ended.
The Rangers were not aware of the dispute between Kamensky and the Avalanche when they signed him over the off season. But Kamensky also passed his physicals. And Neil Smith, the Rangers' president, said Thursday: ''Dr. Tony Maddalo told me yesterday: 'There is nothing on these X-rays. If I had seen them the day before you signed him, where I would have told you don't sign him. It's the exact same break as Niklas Sundstrom had.' '' Sundstrom's forearm was broken by a John MacLean slash in the second round of the 1997 playoffs, when Sundstrom was with the Rangers and MacLean, who is a Ranger, played for the Devils.
''Unfortunately, the guy in Edmonton fell on one of his screws,'' Smith said, referring to Roman Hamrlik, who checked Kamensky on the final shift of overtime in the Rangers' season-opening 1-1 tie.Continue reading the main story

I've been reading a lot lately... a lot.
I've been reading a lot of stuff about ashtanga yoga, the practice, the method, the theory, the injuries, the spirituality, the asana... I've been doing exactly what I think I probably shouldn't be doing and here's why:
All this reading and information, correct and otherwise, is creeping into my practice. My knee hurts: do I have a torn meniscus? My butt hurts, am I slowly tearing my quadricep tendon? I should practice lifting up and jumping back; what did Kino say about that or Laura? Why am I still just doing primary? Didn't I read somewhere that it's good to start some intermediate poses after 'mastering' primary? I've been at this for almost 10 years (0k, on and off); haven't I mastered primary? Why am I thinking so much? Get back to the breath? Is my breath correct? I'm not concentrating; what did I read about boredom...
You see what I mean?
In "House Recommendations" by Angela Jamison from Ashtanga Ann Arbor (a wonderful, insightful, and informative booklet) she writes:
Filter: Most Ashtanga information on the Web is made by, and for, distracted minds.
Yep, that's me, a distracted mind. But also a hungry mind, but hungry for what? Knowledge? Inspiration? Connection?
I think that for me, probably all three. I look at Ashtanga websites for inspiration and to reach out to a larger community of ashtangis. But why? All I need do is look to those who practice with me every morning to find inspiration. And aren't they my community?
They are and yet my busy mind seeks out more information, more images, more, more, more.
It is becoming exhausting and the affects of all this 'knowledge/information/inspiration/community' has started to impact my practice. And though I'm trying not to judge that impact, my sense is that it hasn't necessarily been a positive thing.
A daily mysore-style practice is a wonderful thing that is at once nurturing and challenging. I've been at this now for 2 months and it is breaking me down as it is building me up. I'm beginning to see connections to psychological issues/blocks and certain asanas. For the first time, the practice has helped me heal or relieve a discomfort. I think I am calmer, and also so much more aware of my emotions, my body, my energy. But all these lessons are happening on my mat, at 6am, at the shala, with my patient, gentle teacher, and my fellow practitioners. Not on the internet.
I realize that I have been heavily binging on Ashtanga theory and need to cut down on my diet.
Because nothing is going to teach me more than what I experience everyday, on my mat...

CHARLEVOIX — For years, brothers Tim and Dennis Maxwell drove to Gaylord or Traverse City for motorcycle repairs and to buy bike parts.
But now, the brothers have their motorcycles serviced locally in Charlevoix at their own shop, Maxwell Bros. Cycle Shop.
"We do all service on Harley and most metric bikes from tire and oil changes to engine work. We will even build custom bikes," Tim said.
Located at 103 Harbor Dr., the brothers not only provide service but parts and accessories. Tim said the shop can order any and all parts for customers seeking to do their own mechanical work.
In addition, they carry some apparel such as Easy Rider road wear and helmets.
Aside from being one of the few motorcycle shops in the area, what makes their shop different, Tim said, was the fact that their mechanic — Pat Hayes — specializes in both Harley and metric models from old to new.

The Eastern Wyoming College Livestock Judging team is one of the largest groups that EWC has had in a while for the judging program totaling 18 freshman and sophomore judgers. Zane Mackey serves as an assistant coach to Coach Georgia Younglove.
The EWC Livestock Judging Team began their season regionally at AkSarBen in Grand Island, Neb.; The MidAmerican in Hutchinson, Kan.; and finally the Tulsa State Fair in Tulsa, Okla. Students then traveled to the Western Junior Livestock Show in Rapid City, S.D. Their final prep was at the Ram Classic in Ft. Collins, Colo. before they attended their first national contest of the semester at the American Royal in Kansas City, Mo.
The freshman team of Kylie Donovan, Haxton, Colo.; Todd Murphy, Chino Valley, Ariz.; Dylan Shaw, Decker, Mont.; and Alexia Velasco, Paulden, Ariz. finished 8th in sheep and goats, 8th in swine and 8th overall at AkSarBen, while Shaw and Baxter Boldon, Buffalo Gap, S.D. both placed in the top 25 percent of the contestants in the swine division. Boldon also placed 9th in beef and 13th overall at the Ram Classic.
The judging team ended their fall season at the North American International Livestock Judging Contest in Louisville, Ky. Team members included Myca Cantrell, sophomore, Burns, Wyo.; Baxter Boldon and Joseph Pieper, sophomore, Mitchell, Neb.
"All three students talked at least one set of reasons in the high forties, I was excited to see a significant increase in reason scores," said assistant coach Zane Mackey.
Prior to the contest students had the opportunity to work out at some of the premier livestock operations in the Midwest including Prairie Rose Cattle Company; Jack Rodibaugh and Sons; Miller Show Goats; Poe Hampshires; Harker Simmentals, and Forsee Southdowns. They also worked out at the University of Illinois and Purdue University.
A few students will travel to the Arizona Nationals over Christmas break. The next major contest will be the National Western Stock Show in Denver the early part of January.

"You have a thousand men, I have as many and more. For each of yours that drops becomes one of mine."
Prerequisite: Animate Dead power
The horrid vision which makes even brave men fear the Necromancer is the sight of legions of the undead marching under a waving banner, each death of the defenders lending another "able" body to the enemy's forces. You embody the beginnings of this nightmare, as more and more corpses rise by your skilled shadow magic, and the makings of an army form and follow behind you. You are a leader of the dead, unmatched by those who would decry your art, and your enemies' corpses provide just more fuel to the fire of your ambition.
Leader of the Dead (Level 11): Your minions gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls, all defenses, and to speed while they are within 5 squares of you.
Minion's Surge (Level 11): You may spend an action point to allow each of your minions to make its standard action attack without using an action, instead of taking your extra action.
Create Undead (Level 16): You gain the Wizard Spell Animate Dead. The power gains the Shadow keyword, and gains the following additional effects;
- The raised corpse has any resistances or weaknesses of the original enemy, plus resist 5 necrotic per tier and vulnerable 5 radiant per tier. It is immune to disease and poison, and retains any special movement modes (such as swim, fly, or burrow) and qualities (such as insubstantial or phasing) of the original enemy. If the enemy was intelligent, it retains the ability to speak and communicate with you, but lacks any ambition or will to do anything you do not command it to. The corpse remains animate after the end of the encounter and may continue to adventure with you until it is destroyed, but it continues to decay at the normal rate unless measures are taken to preserve it.

Your legions of undead attack as one.

Move Action Close Burst 5
Target: Each of your undead minions in burst

|Necomancer's Legion
|Necromancer Feature
Claws of bone and wings of leathery hide sprout from your minions as they take on a more bestial aspect.
Daily ♦ Minion, Polymorph, Shadow
Minor Action Close Burst 5
Target: Each of your undead minions in burst
Effect: Each target gains temporary hit points equal to your healing surge value, a fly speed equal to its ground speed, and deals 1d8 extra necrotic damage with its standard action attack. These effects last until the end of the encounter, or until all targets are destroyed.

In order to provide the best service to the customers, control aspects, impacts and any risks from the mining activities, CK committed to implement a sustainable Quality Management System, Occupational Safety and Health and the Environment (QSHE) through several policies:
- Ensure mining services provided to customers in accordance with the requirements given in terms of production targets, continuity and quality of production.
- Demonstrate compliance with OSHE regulations and other OSHE-related regulations which can be applied as minimum requirement and support the development of OSHE management with higher standard than government regulations (national and local).
- Establish, monitor and periodically review the targets and annual targets Quality, Safety and Health at Work and the Environment (QSHE).
- Ensure the QSHE Policy is understood and implemented by all employees, sub-contractors, and other parties who related with CK as an effort to achieve QSHE target that have been set.
- Perform significant efforts in order to manage OSHE risk to prevent injury, occupational illnesses, property damage, and environment pollution.
Conduct internal audit in CK and its sub-contractors and review periodically the implementation of QSHE Management System which has been adapted, also monitor and improve the performance of QSHE continuously by doing continual improvements. We hold certification ISO 9001:2008 for Quality Management, OHSAS 18001:2007 for HSE Management and ISO 14001 for Environment Management.
Wherever we operate, we will be part of the entire local community surrounding the operating area. Align with the mission of TMT Group, CK committed to actively involve as a good corporate citizen. This commitment is shown through open and fair communication, community participation in our business, and support to the life quality improvement of local community.
Local community participation in our business is also part of our effort to help boosting the local economy. It is implemented through providing job opportunities to local community; developing their capacity that respond to the business needs, and prioritizing local entrepreneurs become our subcontractor or vendors.
We implement our commitment to empower communities and conserve the environment in order to to minimize the impact of our work and improve the living quality of local community, particularly in the areas of education, health and social.
To ensure its sustainability, our CSR program is aligned with local or national government initiatives.
Local People Development
We realize that our project may not last forever and can be ended one day. That is why; we recognize the importance of community empowerment that can boost local economy. Our contribution on helping the community empowerment is implemented through local recruitment and support toward education surrounding company's operational area.
The local recruitment is one of our agenda whenever we started a new project. The oportunity to work together with us not only to those who already have relevant experience, but also for local community who doesn't have any related experience. Through Green Operator and Trainee Mechanic Program, the local community will received a series of training consist of knowledge and skills and also on-the-job training for one year. This program is successfully developed reliable young operators and mechanics.
Started from the big opportunity for young generation in West Aceh to work in heavy equipment industry, we work together with West Aceh local government and Vocational School SMKN 2 Meulaboh to establish a new Heavy Equipment Major. We held an initial 200 hours training for the teachers that followed by intensive training for 2 months in Jakarta. We also donated Excavator as learning tool for the SMKN 2 Meulaboh students.
Through this commitment, it is expected there will be great mechanics who will be able contribute not only in mining sector, but also other heavy equipment-related sectors.

A few years back, Ma had given me a wooden comb from Shonibarer Haat in Shantiniketan. It was tucked carefully in my jewellery box and remained unused. It was too beautiful for combing hair. I would often hold it in my palm, look and put it back where it belonged.
For the past few years, I have always tried to make (on my own) at least one piece of jewellery for myself for Pujo. This year, I had an unusually busy schedule and all these high hopes disappeared in oblivion. (Even yesterday morning, I was revising and adding to my Grumble-List and this was one of the primary items).
Yesterday, while buying something from a local grocery store, I discovered a quaint little sewing shop in my para. Instantly an idea made a Jack-in-the-box act. I bought six Anchor embroidery threads. Pocket pinch: 30 rupees only!!! (the lips spread ear-to-ear, curving a reverse-rainbow across my face).
I came back home and in fifteen flat minutes, my jewellery was ready (including clicking these photos).
The only thing that is left now: "Eta pore manja dewa!" *mentally singing this* :D
