Duncan MacDuncan was the chieftain of the MacDuncan clan. He was the mate of Cathmor MacDuncan and the birth father of Liam MacDuncan.
Duncan MacDuncan was an old dire wolf. Once he had dark grey and white fur, but with age, it had turned almost white. There were bare patches on his shoulder that revealed scars from long ago fights. His shoulders suggested a landscape of the battlefields that he had known. Like scorched land, it was as if his fur had refused to grow there. Duncan's eyes were green, the color of streams that ran down from glaciers in the high country. There was also a notch in one of his ears, possibly ripped by a cougar. In Shadow Wolf he looks into a fire, and he found out about the second Long Cold, so he may have foresight.

Lone Wolf
In Lone Wolf, Duncan is seen when he attends a meeting between the other chieftains. He, along with the other chieftains, thought that Faolan had the foaming mouth disease and went to the Sark of Slough. She brought them hot coals to burn Faolan with. during the chase Duncan was having trouble due to his old age. However they managed to trapFaolan in a forest of fire. Faolan, having been taught how to jump and stand on his hind legs by Thunderheart, jumps over the wall of fire.
Duncan was surprised that Faolan had escaped the hot flames and offered to let the malcadh join his clan.
Shadow WolfAs punishment for letting the moose get away in the byrrgis, the lords of Faolan and Heep's pack decide Faolan must be given the Gnaw Bite. To make it more humiliating, Heep is assigned to do it. However, because of the print in the mud, left by Faolan's spiral mark, Heep refuses. This resulted in Lord Claren flinging him away. Lord Claren and Lord Bhreac jump on Faolan, and decide he must visit the dying chieftain.
At the Carreg Gaer, an elder brings him into the raghnaid. His mate, Cathmor, lays a calming paw on his flank, and Duncan wonders if Faolan has firesight, a rare ability to see through the flames. The chieftain wonders if the young gnaw wolf sees the cold before the summer moons, if the Long Cold would return. He calls to Lord Adair, the second-highest lord of the raghnaid, to read the bone of the mishave of the hunt, carved by Heep.
After the bone is read, the MacDuncan chieftain taps his tail, as a sign for a private conversation. He asks Faolan what he thinks about the bone, and Faolan says it is not carved well. Duncan asks, "What am I supposed to do with you, lad?" and Faolan says that he is not a good gnaw wolf. Duncan then tells the young wolf that that's not the problem, and says that what the problem is is that he is not a good clan wolf. He then tells Faolan about gaddergnaws, and that it could be his chance. Faolan is then led away from the raghnaid.
Later, in the chapter "The Paw of Thunderheart", Faolan hears the skreeleen Alastrine's howl that Duncan had passed away. He then hears Cathmor howling for the loss. It was a terrible time for the chieftain to die, because there was no sign of the Star Ladder that led to the heavenly Cave of Souls. The stars had slipped to the west,
and in a few nights, would entirly disappear for three winter moons. Cathmor also howls her thanks, as if he had died sooner, his spirit would have to wait until spring to reach the Cave of Souls.
Near the end of the novel, Cathmor asks to lick Faolan's carved story bone, confessing that she believes she has not treated him well. She tells him that he is a member of the Watch of the Ring of Sacred Volcanoes now. Faolan tells her that he represents the MacDuncan clan, and Cathmor tells him, voice cracking, that her mate had believed in him.
Later, after Faolan chases Heep to the Outermost, Liam MacDuncan says that he feels his father's presence with them.
In the annocentment of the gaddergnaw games in Shadow Wolf, Duncan dies of old age shortly after Faolan leaves to go on his punishment journey for ruining the byrrgis hunting session.

Filed under: Boot camp log, Injury
I should know better than to put into writing anything universe-provoking like "It's probably partly the Week 2 buzz kicking in, and partly getting to "sleep in" until 5:20 am, but I'm feeling good this morning." The Week 2 buzz kicked out as quickly as it kicked in, and I've been very tired every morning since Monday. It may be because my foot's still sore — after work Tuesday and Wednesday I only had the energy to ice it and lie on the couch, eating dinner that was as non-labour-intensive as possible.
The highlights of boot camp so far this week:
Tuesday, I did the agility ladder and hurdles at a much slower pace than the able-footed, and marched around with arm weights while they did sprint training. It was a bit frustrating because those are two of the activities I've grown to enjoy over previous boot camps. This frustration was almost entirely offset by the new, fun experience of doing assisted pull ups — with my knees being supported/lifted from below, I did somewhere between 5 and 10 of them. I look forward to one day being able to do more, unassisted, but it was a fun start.
On Wednesday we did a bunch of mostly strength-training exercises. Regarding the burn holding a wall squat for two minutes, or holding a plank from the elbows for a minute, or pulsing a zillion (20) times at the top of a crunch — I wouldn't say I loved it or even like-liked it, but I liked it enough to want to do it again.
This morning my watch beep-beeped a few minutes before 0500, and I pressed the button to shut it up. I didn't wake up fully because I'm pretty sure I thought it was a snooze button I was pressing.
My watch doesn't have a snooze button.
Next time I opened my eyes, the clock radio was redly glaring 5:17 at me. Crap.
I threw clothes on and filled my water bottle while Mounir (who'd woken up at 4:30 or something ridiculous like that) popped some minty Tums in my mouth since I didn't have time to brush my teeth. I was out the door in record time, but still arrived at least two minutes late. This meant I earned the opportunity to build upper body strength, i.e. do 20 push ups before joining the group. I rolled out my mat and did regular ones; only the last three or four were a struggle.
Given my fatigue it was tempting to just say "oh well, I slept in" and to go back to sleep instead of rushing to get to boot camp, especially when I knew push ups were waiting for me. I'm glad I didn't, though, since the whole point of this is to get into the habit of consistently deciding to just do it.

Way to go! The hardest part about doing anything (but especially exercise) is developing the discipline to make it a regular routine. I've been struggling for most of the summer to do this myself at home, and I think it's starting to stick. I just want to be in better shape, but exercising isn't fun…

Any discussion that includes "digital preservation" and "traditional archivist skills" in the same sentence always interests me. This reflects my own personal background (I trained as an archivist) but also my conviction that the skills of an archivist can have relevance to digital preservation work.
I recently asked a question along these lines after I heard Catherine Taylor, the archivist for Waddesdon Manor, give an excellent presentation at the PASIG17 Conference this month. She had started life as the paper archivist and has evidently grown into the role of digital archivist with great success. Her talk was called "We can just keep it all can't we?: managing user expectations around digital preservation and access".
READ MORE: The meaning of the term archive
We can't find our stuff
As Taylor told it, she was a victim of her own success; staff always depended on her to find (paper) documents which nobody else could find. The same staff apparently saw no reason why they couldn't depend on her to find that vital email, spreadsheet, or Word document. To put it another way, they expected the "magic" of the well-organised archive to pass directly into a digital environment. My guess is that they expected that "magic" to take effect without anyone lifting a finger or expending any effort on good naming, filing, or metadata assignment. But all of that is hard work.
What's so great about archivists?
My question to Catherine was to do with the place of archival skills in digital preservation, and how I feel they can sometimes be neglected or overlooked in many digital preservation projects. Possible scenario is that the "solution" we purchase is an IT system, so its implementation is in the hands of IT project managers. Archivists might be consulted as project suppliers; more often, I fear they are ignored, or don't speak up.
Catherine's reply affirmed the value of such skills as selection and appraisal, which she believes have a role to play in assessing the overload of digital content and reducing duplication.
After the conference, I wondered to myself what other archival skills or weapons in the toolbox might help with digital preservation. A partial tag cloud might look like this:
We've got an app for that
What tools and methods do technically-able people reach for to address issues associated with the "help us to find stuff" problem? Perhaps…
- Automated indexing of metadata, where the process is operated by machines on machine-readable text.
- Using default metadata fields – by which I mean properties embedded in MS Word documents. These can be exposed, made sortable and searchable; SharePoint has made a whole "career" out of doing that.
- Network drives managed by IT sysadmins alone – which can include everything from naming to deletion (but also backing up, of course).
- De-duplication tools that can automatically find and remove duplicate files. Very often, they're deployed as network management tools and applied to resolve what is perceived as a network storage problem. The way they work is based on recognition of checksum matches or similar rules.
- Search engines – which may be powerful, but not very effective if there's nothing to search on.
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools which can be "trained" to recognise words and phrases, and thus assist (or even perform) selection and appraisal of content on a grand scale.
Internal user behaviours
There are some behaviours of our beloved internal staff / users which arguably contribute to the digital preservation problem in the long-term. They could all be characterised as "neglect". They include:
- Keeping everything – if not instructed to do otherwise, and there's enough space to do so.
- Free-spirited file naming and metadata assignment.
- Failure to mark secure emails as secure – which is leading to a retrospective correction problem for large government archives now.
I would contend that a shared network run on an IT-only basis, where the only management and ownership policies come from sysadmins, is likely to foster such neglect. Sysadmins might not wish to get involved in discussions of meaning, context, or use of content.
How to restore the "magic"?
I suppose we'd all love to get closer to a live network, EDRMS, or digital archive where we can all find and retrieve our content. A few suggestions occur to me…
- Collaboration. No archivist can solve this alone, and the trend of many of the talks at PASIG was to affirm that collaboration between IT, storage, developers, archivists, librarians and repository managers is not only desirable – it is in fact the only way we'll succeed now. This might be an indicator of how big the task is ahead of us. The 4C Project said as much.
- Archivists must change and grow. Let's not "junk" our skillsets; for some reason, I fear that we are encouraged not to tread on IT ground, start to assume that machines can do everything we can do, and that our training is worthless. Rather, we must engage with what IT systems, tools and applications can do for us, how they can help us realise the results in that word cloud.
- Influence and educate staff and other users. And if we could do it in a painless way, that would be one miracle cure that we're all looking for. On the other hand, Catherine's plan to integrate SharePoint with Preservica (with the help of the latter) is one move in the right direction: for one thing, she's finding that the actual location of digital objects doesn't really matter to users, so long as the links work. For reasons I can't articulate right now, this strikes me as a significant improvement on a single shared drive sitting in a building.
I think archivists can afford to assert their professionalism, make their voice a little louder (in line with Steph Taylor's talk), where possible stepping in at in all stages of the digital preservation narrative; at the same time, we mustn't cling to the "old ways", rather start to discover ways in which we can update them. John Sheridan of The National Archives has already outlined an agenda of his own to do just this. I would like to see this theme taken up by other archivists, and propose a strand along these lines for discussion at the ARA Conference.

BlazeVOX [books], 2011. Sure, we've all heard the ponderous question, "If you were stranded on an island with only five small press poetry books, which would they be, and why?" I would like to propose that you immediately strike #1 on your list, and replace it with Call the Catastrophists by Krystal Languell.
Simply put, this book is a new book every time you read it. Its three carefully rendered sections--titled CATASTROPHES, SALVAGE, and CONTINUUM--are deceptive in their uniformity, because these sections don't so much contain the poems within, but give them walls to tap upon, ledges to peer over. Languell's lineated poems whistle at their prose poem neighbors, and she seems equally adept with either form, as well as in poems where she makes use of the field, such as "Flesh: A Clarification."
What is remarkable about this book is how Languell is able to take everyday occurrences and objects and make them both frightful and enlightening, from a fortuitously aligned sunset to a bundle of twigs wrapped in a red bow. These are contemplative poems that manage to never get lost in their own thoughts, though we may find ourselves returning to them while gazing at a streetscape or washing dishes. The final poem in the book, "Suggestions for Longevity," tells us, "You'll want to think the end isn't your fault. Get organized. Go for a hike. Start a non-profit. // I don't do that kind of thing, but I'm not the one who wants to live forever."
This book might just make you want to live forever, or at least to savor its pages on a deserted island, not bothering to scan the horizon for any signs of rescue.

People were describing too many problems in the original bug. Under RHEL5, if
you configure the system to use LDAP as an NSS source, the "messagebus" service
will hang during boot. This is caused by a calling initgroups() for the dbus
user, which attempts to query LDAP to determine whether the dbus user is a
member of any groups stored there. The situation is resolved if:
nss_initgroups_ignoreusers root,ldap,named,avahi,haldaemon
nss_initgroups_ignoreusers root,ldap,named,avahi,haldaemon,dbus
It looks like this bug has been fixed, either in nss_ldap-253-13.el5_2.1 or a previous package.
Shouldn't this be closed or marked as a duplicate of bug 186527? (it's even got the exact same subject)
This bug/component is not included in scope for RHEL-5.11.0 which is the last RHEL5 minor release. This Bugzilla will soon be CLOSED as WONTFIX (at the end of RHEL5.11 development phase (Apr 22, 2014)). Please contact your account manager or support representative in case you need to escalate this bug.
Thank you for submitting this request for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. We've carefully evaluated the request, but are unable to include it in RHEL5 stream. If the issue is critical for your business, please provide additional business justification through the appropriate support channels (https://access.redhat.com/site/support).

the man with the Iron Fist
16 comments:
i wish i could give you some kind of credible feed back on this one but i'm just not familiar enough, or at all with some of these characters out side of BT. having to do some research on them and then cook up a story premise in my head would be a small project. so much stuff to do and so little time to do it in our day to day meager mortal lives.ReplyDeleteReplies
Man....the movie was a disappointment. I wasn't expecting the house of the flying daggers but damn some substance and story should have been there. I can't believe Tarantino didn't see the holes in this movie. Rza gets an A for what I think he tried to do, but an F on the total project.Delete
truth be told the previews to this movie just reeked of over the top sort of martial arts nonesense. seeing this movie was never on my radar. Tarantino has had some movies over the years that had moments of greatness but he never had another great movie since Pulp Fiction.Delete
thanks for stopping by the Rom blog. by the way i'm hearing great things about that Ben Afleck movie Argo. plus the new James Bond look promising. i'm sure it'll at least be better then what you just saw.Delete
Skyfall is up next and I hear Argo is going to win some awards, Afleck is for real. Bond has always been a character I like, suave, smart with toys to rival Batman himself. So the new Bond with the gruff exterior, mad at the world type of guy turned me away from the 007 movies. I am a Daniel Gregg fan so I am going to give the movie a shot.But truth be told, Liam Neeson did a better Bond in Taken.Delete
yeah me too when it comes to Daniel Craig. i love the torture scene from Casino Royale, "i've got an itch down there, do you mind?". he was also cool in Munich with another great quote that i like, "don't fuck with the Jews". and yeah Taken turned out to be a fairly good movie. there's a sequel coming for that one too.Delete
Sorry I'm almost a week late in responding man, my bad for damn sure:(ReplyDelete
Glad there's more diversity out there as far as movies go, especially with hopefully a new resurgence in kung-fu.
Whatever the plot for a BT movie, it would have to have feature pretty much the entire backstory for BT, so the writers and director could copy the pages from BT's origin issue from the old Suicide Squad series scene for scene. Then maybe hint at a fight w/Batman during the whole Kathy Kane ordeal, although that could really be saved for a sequel. I think Batman Begins,. and the progression of the character and fighting the league of assassins would be a really good way to go, just as long as its not a straight-up copy.
Whatta' think?Replies
I think were on the same page for a BT movie, DC animated or otherwise. But Kung-Fu or Wu Shu hasn't gone anywhere, every movie and comic book character has some type of martial arts skills these days and that's the problem. With the Bronze Tiger being a martial arts guy, what makes him movie or comic worthy, he's just another fighter? Some writer needs to read thebronzetiger.blogspot.com and get the answers.Delete
I thought the man with the Iron Fists was finally going to give up part of the formula and set myself up to be tortured by a mediocre grindhouse.
fuck! election night is winding down and the Waller ticket didn't make it. as far as the Romney ticket goes i think even a reboot wouldn't have helped that campaign :)ReplyDeleteReplies
Not even one of the best music producers in the world could help this movie project either. Who knew?Delete
Damn sorry to hear that:( I did like that one one by Russel Crowe about those "women of the night" being business and his knife, and probably what he intended to do with it being pleasure. Other than that, and maybe seeing former pro-wrestler Batista in action, I wasn't too interested in this one myself. I might rent it once it comes out on dvd.ReplyDeleteReplies
I can truthfully say that The Man with the Iron Fists was not on my list of movies to see. But A friend wanted to go see it and I went. It was crap. The was no story, the music did not go with the time period and the supposed hero was a runaway slave,that ended up in a monastery and learned what?? And used it to do what??? All I can say is just....Damn. I didn't really expect much from this movie, but they gave me even less than what I expected. If you asked me for a rating on this movie, I'd give it 1 star and that's being generous. This movie is definitely no Kill Bill.Delete
Well ahhh.....the karate was good?:(?Delete
It's funny that you said that because the only thing I can remember about that movie was Lucy Liu and her fans...uh I think she had fans. Besides this movie, I have only seen one or two others (The quest with jean-claude van damme and Star-Trek Insurrection) that I could not remember any of the details to. If Quentin Tarantino and the RZA are not embarrassed about this movie, hell I'll be embarrassed for them. The ideas introduced in this movie had potential. They just did not flesh out any of them. They just touched on things and then never explained them. I was actually a little frustrated while I was watching this movie. Omega, you do your homework, so I believe that if someone gave you just $100,000 some equipment you could shoot a better movie than than one.Delete
Even though the RZA's acting was horrible and his narrating in a New York accident when he was supposed to be a runaway slave was brutal to listen to. He does know and have a passion for kung fu, because the characters were cool. They just needed a real director to make us care about them.Delete
Ohhhhh....flattery will get you everywhere here my sister. But on the real. I'm a big Wu Tang fan. Saw em in concert, bought all the albums (CD's) and felt like a real member when I wore the W, but this movie is not what I wanted at all. Who knows, maybe they should have followed the story line from the video game? :(Delete

Human trafficking Awareness Day is dedicated to raising awareness of sexual slavery and human trafficking worldwide. It started in 2007, when the U.S. Senate designated January 11th as National Human Trafficking Awareness Day. Although it is a U.S. initiative, the United Nations has begun to highlight this topic and is working towards global awareness.
Here are some statistics from the International Justice Mission:
Injustice Today
Today, millions of lives around the world are in the grip of injustice.
More children, women and men are held in slavery right now than over the course of the entire trans-Atlantic slave trade: Millions toil in bondage, their work and even their bodies the property of an owner.
Trafficking in humans generates profits in excess of 32 billion dollars a year for those who, by force and deception, sell human lives into slavery and sexual bondage. Nearly 2 million children are exploited in the commercial sex industry. The AIDS pandemic continues to rage, and the oppression of trafficking victims in the global sex trade contributes to the disease's spread.
In many countries around the world, pedophiles find that they can abuse children with impunity. And though police should be protectors, in many nations, their presence is a source of insecurity for the poor. Suspects can be held interminably before trials, imprisoned for crimes they did not commit.
The land rights of women are violated on a massive scale worldwide, but with particular ferocity in Africa, leaving widows and other women in vulnerable positions unable to care for themselves or their children. Around the world, women suffer the double trauma of rape - and seeing their perpetrators face no consequences.
Often lacking access to their own justice systems and unable to protect themselves or their families from those more powerful, it is overwhelmingly the poor who are the victims of these brutal forms of abuse.
Facts about Human Trafficking Awareness
Each year, nearly 2 million children are exploited in the global commercial sex trade. (UNICEF)
27 million men, women and children are held as slaves. (Kevin Bales, Disposable People)
1 in 5 women is a victim of rape or attempted rape in her lifetime. (U. N. Development Fund for Women)
According to UNICEF, 2 million children are estimated to be trafficking victims of sex trade each year.
The average age of a girl being forced into the US domestic sex slavery market is 13.
The average cost of a slave around the world is $90.
What can you do?
Talk to children about strangers and make sure they memorize important addresses and phone numbers.
Donate to an organization that fights human trafficking.
You can find such organizations on my End Slavery page.
Save 888-373-7888 to your phone. This is number to the National Human Trafficking Resources Hotline. This hotline will help you:
– Identify local community resources to help victims
– Give you contact information so that you can reach out to them
– Coordinate with local social service organizations to help protect
and serve victims so they begin process of restoring their lives

Notepad? Check. Crystal-clear screen? Super-smooth web browsing? Check. Maximized battery efficiency? Check. Multitask friendly? Check. Picture-perfect photos? Check.
The checklist goes on and on with Samsung's Galaxy Note 4, the latest phablet that will prove to be the only device you need to accomplish all your daily social, business and personal goals.
The Main Features
Held together by a premium metal frame, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is stylish and sleek with fluid curvature for ultimate grip and comfort. The Note 4 will blow your mind with phenomenal visuals on a 5.7" Quad HD Super AMOLED display that boasts precise color saturation and extremely high resolution, making it the ideal phone for web browsing and e-booking.
If you enjoy an amazing viewing experience (who doesn't?), this is the phone-tablet for you. Additionally, the amenities that come with this phone are unreal. The front-facing selfie-snapper houses 3.7MP lens and the back packs a 16MP Smart IOS camera, allowing users to shoot brighter, clearer images, even in the dark.
But enough about the exterior, let's talk about what's inside, the power packed within, the juicy stuff. What probably makes this arguably the best device out there is that it is the ultimate enabler for multitasking.
The multi-window functionality along with an advanced S Pen, allows for natural, free-flowing multitasking to take place in the lives of movers and shakers.
Efficiency calls for endurance as well, and this phone has the battery life to back it up. Its processor provides optimal performance without sacrificing battery life, and the supporting Adaptive Fast Charging technology lets you charge the phone 50% in 30 minutes, not to mention, the Ultra Power-Saving Mode is clutch as it helps maintain a 10% charge for 24 hours.
Intensify the Experience
A couple apps come highly recommended with a Note 4. Since you have the super sharp camera, crisp clear visuals and an accurate S pen, all you need is to download PicsArt – Photo Studio. This application pairs extremely well with the phablet, allowing you to adjust and edit images to your liking utilizing the S pen. And with the multitasking components, you can also share your artwork via multiple outlets.
Another application highlight available on the device is Photo Note. Make notes by taking photos with the app and it will instantly convert analog to digital where you can edit notes, change colors and include supplementing memos – perfect for work meetings.
How It Matches Up
In comparison to the new iPhone 6 Plus, the clear winner would be the Samsung Galaxy Note 4. The Note overall is just a stronger gadget for the purposes of doing more in the most efficient manner. It runs on a 2.7GHz quad-core Snapdragon 806 processor while the 6 Plus only runs on a 1.4Ghz Apple A8 dual-core processor.
And if you're into sharper images, the Galaxy Note has the iPhone beat with a 1460 x 2560 pixel resolution versus 1080 x 1920. Last but very importantly, the phone cameras don't even compare –the Note 4's front and back camera megapixels are two times greater than the iPhone's.
In conclusion, the Galaxy Note 4 is really the only device you need. And since you'll probably be using this thing 24/7, you'll need a mobile provider with an affordable data plan. T-Mobile is a go-to carrier because it offers options that include free 4G LTE to its customers and is contract-free.
Now you know, so it's time to go! The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 will change your life in more innovative ways than ever imagined.

Self-Guided Vietnam Travel
A country with over 50 sub-cultures, awesome landscapes with sandy beaches, tropical weather and friendly hosts aren't found everywhere. Sure, you can enjoy these travel attractions by joining an organized tour or even hiring a private guide to escort you around the country, but both of these options create a barrier between you and the friendly locals.
Vietnam has over 86 million people and is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world. The two main concerns of travelers – heat and monsoon rains have been addressed in recent years. Modern accommodations and transportation with air conditioning are prevalent and many Vietnam travelers have decided to brave the inclement weather of the monsoons to enjoy some of the benefits the rains – mainly better "beach" weather when the rains of the day have passed.
A large variety of Vietnam hotels has emerged in the past few years – small family run "mini-hotels" to 5-star luxury resorts – make comfortable accommodations available to every travel budget. The "Backpacker Telegraph" provides access to bargain hotels by way of the internet and word-of-mouth. Spend a little time "surfing the web" and you'll find a wide range of places to spend a night or two to fit any budget.
Transportation "to and through" Vietnam can be financially managed by conducting a bit of research on the web. The large international carriers often offer great fares to various hubs in Asia. And the recent emergence of Asia's regional bargain carriers will provide that last "hop" into Vietnam if you can't manage to land in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) or Hanoi. Danang is now an arrival point for regional carriers from Thailand and other nearby countries.
In-country transportation can be arranged for a reasonable price by utilizing the "open tour" private tour bus industry, and if you're really adventurous you can try Vietnam's public bus system. Vietnam's railroads provide excellent transportation from one end of the country to the other. Both the private tour bus companies and the railroad provide a number of choices in the area of comfort. "Hard" and "soft" are the adjectives used to describe the levels of service available on the train. You might even chance a local trip on motorcycle or enjoy a trip around town on a cyclo.
If you're wondering what you do when you get to Vietnam, take a look at any Vietnam travel guide. There are "adventures" to meet the requirements of any traveler's abilities and desires. Providers of local tour services can be found "online", in travel guides, or "on the street" when you arrive in town. Waiting to arrange your tour until you're "on-site" will allow you to make last minute changes to your plans, stay a few extra days at someplace that catches your fancy or spend your money on something else. If you're on an organized tour you may end spending most of your time sitting near someone who's a pain.
Vietnam Tours
One of the most requested sights people ask for when embarking on Vietnam tours is the rural experience. Many people appreciate that Vietnam tours give them a taste of the urban life of Vietnam and the country life as well. When taking Vietnam tours in the country areas, you'll be delighted to see people tending to their rice fields using ancient techniques, children playing alongside beloved farm animals, and the humble architecture that spots the mountainous country landscape.
Hanoi, Hue, Saigon, and Halong are some of the most popular places Vietnam can take you. The Vietnam area is so vast that many people try to cover as much ground as possible in one trip. Using a professional Vietnam tours company ensures you'll get the most out of your time in Vietnam without the stress of trying to be in too many places at once.
The topic is incomplete without mentioning the cuisine that Vietnam has to offer. From the urban to the rural areas of Vietnam you'll be able to explore an exotic and palatable menu that will delight and inspire you. Vietnam is known throughout the world for its unique and tasty spin on traditional Asian cuisine, and experiencing this great food first-hand in Vietnam is something no one ever forgets.
If you want a truly rich cultural experience with your Vietnam, don't pass over Hue. This ancient city is the old imperial capital city where you'll find everything from rulers' palaces to tombs, pagodas, and temples in the unique styling of Vietnamese design. Hue is a favorite place to take Vietnam tours for those who are interested in the true depth of history that Vietnam offers. In addition, Hue offers some of the most ancient and complex cuisine you'll find anywhere in Vietnam!
If you want a few moments of quiet from the bustling Vietnamese culture when on Vietnam tours, make time to visit the Mekong Delta, Mui Ne, and Phu Quoc. These slow-paced villages will frame some of the most amazing scenery Vietnam has to offer and will entice you to take a break and simply rest for a while. Vietnam tours that focus on these special areas will ensure you get time on white sand beaches where relaxation is the main agenda. The water and beach atmosphere in Vietnam is famous throughout the world for a very good reason.
Hanoi is another popular destination for people. Hanoi is the current capital of Vietnam and is a favorite destination for all people taking Vietnam tours from around the world. Ho Chi Minh is a sight to be seen, and many people say that seeing this amazing space in person is the highlight of their Vietnam trip. Hanoi is another great place on Vietnam tours to experience the best cuisine and local beer that Vietnam has to offer. Hanoi is where the modern energy of Vietnam is most lively, and where you'll get to see how Vietnam is evolving into the future.
Hoi An is the true souvenir destination. This creative city bustles with countless tailors, craftsmen, and artisans who work with ancient and modern Vietnamese art styles side-by-side. Vietnam is famous for clothing, and a Hoi An stop on your Vietnam tours will show you why. In just a couple of hours you can have clothing custom tailors to suit you using your own hand-selected fabrics. You can also find the biggest variety of traditional arts and crafts that Vietnam has to offer in this charming city.
Vietnam Wall
One of the more interesting sites we visited was Colonial Williamsburg. Betty might not necessarily agree with me, but the best moment for me was a dinner in a 17th Century Tavern on Main Street. I have a picture of us standing on the street outside the pub and we were dead tired.
Inside we ordered a drink on the rocks: a shot of Apricot Brandy, a shot of Peach Brandy and a shot of Rum. We placed our order and sipped on the drink while an Irish balladeer entertained us with his words and music.
The old Irish folk songs continued throughout our stay, with Betty and I thoroughly enjoying the 18th century cuisine, all the while, dining on a very good steak and potato meal. Of course, if the events had been reversed, the food first, then the drink and the music, I doubt the tavern would have been so memorable. The two of us being so tired, we may have fallen asleep instead. Whereas the strong drink had us primed for all that followed, and it was great.
On another day, across the street, we were entertained by a live play, one in which the audience was allowed to stand in the living room of an 18th century dwelling while the performance was under way, then later in the kitchen and slave quarters for the final acts.
The plot evolved a white man, set to marry a white woman and the man was trying to explain his intentions to his black concubine slave girl, and as would be expected, she didn't understand. The performance was so real, it made me feel as if time had been turned back to the 1700's and we were right there with them – the people that would have lived there during that era.
Another really great evening was a dinner-cruise up the James River, past the naval shipyard. But the highlight of our stay in Virginia Beach was a one-day bus trip up to Washington DC.
That night back in the room, Betty said she really enjoyed the trip. My thoughts were that it was a long bus ride up and back and being hurried from place to place was a little annoying to me. In one instance when I arrived back at the bus a little late, Betty said the driver had threatened to leave me behind. Luckily I showed up while the driver was still talking about it and he wasn't forced to put his words into action.
Later, reflecting on the trip, I have to say it wasn't that bad. We visited a portion of the capitol building, an old church and several museums. One of the museums had a giant blue whale hanging from the ceiling and a dinosaur exhibit, including a Tyrannosaurus Rex. But I was a little disappointed that it wasn't as large as I had expected. Of course, what we saw was the skeleton, minus any flesh and skin the prehistoric beast once had and that would have reduced its size and appearance.
The entire journey to the east coast and back took us a good two weeks to navigate the Jaguar through 14 states, including stops in Myrtle Beach, Tunica and other places to sightsee, shop and gorge ourselves on some really great seafood.
We returned by traveling down the coast to North and South Carolina then west across Georgia back to Oklahoma. I had wanted to stop in Tupelo, Mississippi, thinking that was the birthplace of Elvis Presley. I remembered Jerry Reed's song, The Tupelo Mississippi Flash and thought he may have been referring to Elvis and mentioned that to Betty. But I don't think she was that impressed or was tired and we did stop.
A few minutes later I saw the sign, Tunica, Mississippi, 22 miles and realized Betty's true intentions and that was spend the night in one of the casinos and gamble a few hours before returning to Pryor the next day.
Reflecting on the trip as a whole, I was impressed but also disappointed that we didn't get to see that much of Washington DC. Still the situation rectified itself a few years later when I was sent back to the capitol on a business trip and Betty went along. On that trip we had seven days to prowl the streets, restaurants, subways and any museums we may have missed on the previous trip – including most all the national monuments.
One evening we took a subway out to Wolf Trap and listened to Peter, Paul and Mary perform their hits before a sold out crowd: most of them crowded inside the semi-enclosed structure but also many of them seated outside on the grass.
The next morning we took a subway to see the war memorials: the Vietnam Wall, the Nurses Memorial and the Korean War Memorial. They were all very good but I was the most impressed by the one that had the least to offer and that was the Vietnam Memorial Wall.
When I say it had the least to offer, I mean it consisted of 50,000 plus names etched into a rock wall, and that was it. But the emotions were as thick as a 9-day pea's porridge, and there was nothing there that should have set me off. I suppose it goes to show you the power of the media – because I was primed.
Sure, I was in the Navy during the Vietnam War but I wasn't there where all the fighting took place. The closest I came to the action was two years on Guam, in 1966 and 67. There my only thoughts of Vietnam were the roar and black smoke from the eight jet engines of bomb laden B52s, as the monster aircraft flew out in the morning then returned in silence the same day, many times while we were enjoying a movie in the outdoor theater.
One of my cousins, Delbert Williams, spent a year in Viet Nam. He told me a sniper might have taken a shot at him while he was writing a letter back home, but other than that, nothing. Also one of the guys at work, Leroy Gibson said he was over there but didn't want to talk about it. So that's the extent of my first hand knowledge of the war – other than what I read in the papers and watched on the evening news.
Therefore, it's hard to explain why I would have become so emotional on that day. I had no personal or emotional ties to anyone that was over there. Still, when we crossed the road to the sidewalk that led to the memorial, I could feel the pressure building as I approached a small table where a man about my age had a few pictures and some Vietnam memorabilia set up for sale.
One picture in particular showed a man in civilian clothes standing with one hand on the wall and inside the wall was the image of several soldiers, one of them with his hand on the back side of the wall with his palm matching up with the civilian on the outside.
When I arrived the memorial, there was nothing there for me, nothing but a black marble wall inscribed with the name of every American soldier, airman, marine, sailor and coastguard, both men and women killed in the conflict. Still, I could feel what others felt, those that were there – but why?
The following poem tells the story of a small boy who lost his dad in Vietnam then grew up struggling with the thoughts that may have gone through his father's mind when he was sent off to war and later when he was killed in Vietnam. Finally, the boy, now a grown man, stands at the base of the wall with the thoughts swirling in his head, the emotions welling up in his being, his tears staining the marble. I called it simply: The Vietnam Wall.
Educational Holidays
National Parks to Visit in Vietnam
When you embark upon holidays to Vietnam you must visit some of the national parks. Cat Ba National Park is no exception, located in Cat Hai district, Cat Hai supports a diversity of natural habitats, including forested hills and small fresh water lakes. A total of 839 vascular plant species have been recorded at the national park. Another national park you should explore is Ba Vi National Park, located 50km west of Hanoi. The park has several rare and endangered plants in its protected forest, and its mammals include two species of rare 'flying' squirrel. Human encroachment on the area has made the chances of seeing any of these quite rare but anything is possible in Vietnam.
Holidays to Vietnam and Wildlife
When searching for holidays to Vietnam you may be persuaded by the wonderful wildlife this fascinating country has to offer. From the Asian elephant to the leopard cat, these stunning creatures are something extra special to see for sure. The country is home to 275 species of mammal, 800 species of bird and 180 species of reptile. The extensive forests of the central highlands and far north remain a home to some of nature's most noble creatures, such as the tiger, Asian elephant, clouded Jeopardy and sun bear. If there is ever a time to explore the wildlife that Vietnam has to offer it is now, whether you enjoy bird watching or observing a tiger in the wonderful wild. The nature of the wild is precious and waiting to be explored. Holidays to Vietnam will leave you feeling inspired and relaxed.

A warm testimonial to My Friend Huggles from the Mom of a hospitalized little girl.
This testimonial came from Melanie Boutlet, Mom of little 3 year old Abygel, after a hospital visit from My Friend Huggles.
Abygael received her doll when she was 2 years old from her grandma. Since that day they are the best of friends, Abygael feeds her, dances with her and sings her songs. Her doll even follows her when she sleeps at grandma's. After being admitted to the hospital following her accident, her Rubi doll continues to comfort her. She has been here 3 weeks now. – Melanie Boutlet
Thanks so much for taking the time to write to us! We love hearing from parents, grandparents & caregivers and it warms our hearts to know that our hospital doll donations are making a difference.
With Love & Huggles

Because I took a little blogging vacation apparently.... and you KNOW two weeks of my children's lives can not go undocumented ;)
SO ...picture overload ahead
Burke has been extra sweet in the big brother arena lately. Now... that doesn't mean he won't do something to really tick her off, but more often than not, he is playing with her, reading to her, and being extra protective. It melts me.
Making rice crispy treats to send to school!
We went to another Wee Folks production, and we got to go on Jack's birthday! It was a super fun day filled with fun, friends, and Chickfila (yes, another iced coffee. :)
We visited GeGe and Pop's grave, and she loved hearing about her great grandparents.
We formally invited the grandparents to Grandparent's Day at School. :)
Which was a hit...
I'm thankful we celebrated grandparents day on a Friday and my parents were able to stay and hang out with them until Ryan got home!
And if you live in Sylacauga and haven't signed up your K-6th grader for this....
You will not want them to miss it! It's going to be so fun and great exposure for the little ones to perform under Friday night lights at a (super cute) age!
While I've been super busy with the SHS Auxiliaries in the afternoons and getting ready for the clinic this Sunday, it has never been more evident that these girls are the BEST bunch you can ask for, and the band and staff are top notch... so it's hard not to want to give 110%!
See our band director and my sweet friend (the interviewer) tell you all about it here on our local library connection!
It has been a bit of a struggle managing the littles with this side job (although I wouldn't call it a "job"... it's definitely a passion!), but thankfully my awesome husband, amazing family, friends, and a great babysitter has been helping out in this arena, plus our band director is super understanding of those times when they have to come to practice. :)
Ree and PaPa have been a staple on those Friday's when I have a gab of time I need childcare until Ryan is able to get home from Birmingham, and my parents have helped out too.
On one of those times when I had to drive to Birmingham to get the kids to my mom before a Friday night game.... we stopped at Chickfila and OH. MY. WORD... tell me you've tried this! It was so good, that I got one the next day when I had to meet mom to pick them up!
Move over Starbucks... iced coffee perfection.
We had our first Auburn Gameday of the season!
Sister loves her some Wes.
Little Miss stayed back with Nana and PapPap because the game STARTED at 8pm. I was sad about it to start with... it didn't seem right not having her there, but thankful we made that choice because we didn't get home till after midnight.
I'm sure she got some more good quality time with Ree and PaPa's new additions.
Dan and Little Ann are the sweetest things!
That picture cracks me up!
Sister ADORES them!
The big boys at the first game!
(I think he was giving the coaches the death stare. I mean... HOW many QB's can you play in one game?!)
Enjoying Burke's favorite treat!
One of these past Sunday's... HM was sporting her new MJ. (I HEART THE COLOR MUSTARD!)
I also cooked like I have not cooked... well... in a long while.
The deep freeze was unplugged and I had lots of meat and blueberries to make into something! :)
Lots of errands have been run, and a highlight was when a sweet dog named Maggie hung out with us while we got our oil changed.
We've decided HM is sure to be in the medical field. Either her love of animals or lack of emotion about blood and throw-up (details coming below) is bound to push her in that direction.
Last Friday, we made a trip to McWane!
This is the face I get when she is doing something she shouldn't be doing (i.e. drinking the water :P)
Daddy made an appearance and was welcomed well. :)
I mean... I can't stand the cuteness! She is growing up so fast!
Daddy builds the best structures.
Then this past weekend we went to Auburn (yes... we have FIVE home games in a row!) and I posted this on Instagram.... those piggies... that puppy...
But sister was not feeling very good at the game. :( She threw up a little before we went in (mind you... down the back of me and INTO my bag and shoes. Gag me.
(I AM NOT made for the medical field.)
Burke also started soccer (of which I have no good pictures of because I'm chasing around a one year old) but he and his buddies are having a ball!
I'll try to update more frequently (mostly for my sanity), but also so these posts won't be so random!
Have a blessed week!

Losing Steve
10/07/2011 09:47 a.m. | Apple
In the late 90's I became a gadget geek. It started with MP3 players. I had a rio and a nomad and several others. I didn't really like any of them, and none of them were easy. In 2003 I sold a bunch of stuff on eBay to buy a third gen iPod. After a week, I realized that my string of upgrading was over.
I loved that iPod. I took it everywhere around campus and got it hooked up in my car, and I began to fall in love with music. In 2005, my dad got a Mac mini for fathers day. He tried it out and wasn't into it, and he gave it to me. I started playing around with iMovie and trying to make videos like Ze Frank, and spent endless nights listening to the Fray and editing video. I fell in love with the Mac.
At the same time, I was searching for a new kind of gadget. I wanted a portable video player. I wanted an iPod video player. As January 2007 approached, I started reading the gadget blogs that were predicting Apple would announce a video iPod at their keynote presentation. That keynote was the first live blog I ever watched. Apple did announce a video iPod in the form of the iPhone.
The next day Apple posted the video of the keynote and I watched it.
"An iPod, a phone, and communication device. An iPod, a phone, and a communication device. Are you getting it? These are not three separate devices. This is one device, and we are calling it iPhone."
That's when I fell in love with Steve Jobs.
Since then I have become an Apple zealot. I've owned several macs. I got up at 4am to get in line for my second iPhone. I tell everyone they need to get a Mac.
But much more than that, I have changed my way of thinking about business, technology, and leadership. These three things are what I do now. They are my focus. My vision to build things that people want to use, and it has been shaped by Steve Jobs.
I never met the man and probably never would have. I'm certain that no other stranger has been more influential on my life.
The world has lost a great man.

Of these many made up languages for literature and film, I have provided a brief overview of only three major ones that most of you sci fi/fantasy nerds out there are probably already oh too familiar with. But when they do, the best places to get it are the restaurants run by the sons of deep dish pizza co inventor Rudy Malnati Sr.: Lou Malnati and Pizano (owned by Rudy Malnati Jr.).
I also support a few charity organisations by lending a hand at their fundraising initiatives.. 1, 2017, file photo, former Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick stands on the sidelines before an NFL football game between the Falcons and the New Orleans Saints in Atlanta.
This can technically bar entry for the poorer factions of the queer community, including homeless queer youth who have been kicked out by families. The season usually runs until late November unless the team is successful. You can zest lemons with a knife, but it needs to be small and very sharp, and you need to be careful with it.
Recently, Liz received her EMT certification in the state of Washington. I could tell you that, believe it or not, I have/had friends and teammates I "bantered" with IRL, but if I do that, then I caught in that catch 22 of "not getting" your banter.
What does this mean. If a child becomes over frustrated about their natural desires and goals they may easily experience guilt. Each one of us has experienced some or the other qualities of a teacher which have taught us a lesson about life. They're representing themselves on a global stage.

This is a different game now. "I couldn't tell you cheap jerseys wholesale where to send your kid," Edwards said he would tell parents of local college recruits. Bu that film is incredibly hard to find online. The Cityscape around the inner harbour creates a magnificent panoramic vista.
FOUR different employees told me otherwise and instructed me not to pay, which resulted in a hit in my score. Think of how much people risk to attain the kind of freedom we enjoy in America. Third shift we sat outside the grounds in the shade Sunday morning promoting the wristband pay system, and since no one wanted it we basically hung out with each other for 4 hours.
If you just want indie then LA, NYC, Austin, etc. As he stood there, alone and wholesale nfl jerseys crying, he felt a hand on his shoulder and heard Brother say, "It is alright, Little Brother." Later, when my youngest brother told us this, he said he felt a peace settle over him in that precious moment..

Just a little heads up: the "J" in Marek Janowski's last name isn't pronounced like the standard "J"; rather, it is given a "Y" pronunciation. Marek Yanowski.
I didn't know that, so I figured maybe someone else didn't know it either. 🙂
Anyway, yesterday's program lasted almost 2 hours, though it went by incredibly quickly. The first portion of the program, Mozart's famed Piano Concerto No. 22 (which you might recognize as being the music during the scene in the movie Amadeus when Mozart is riding in a carriage to an outdoor performance with his piano literally strapped to the back of the vehicle) was like truffles: light and sweet. The piece certainly was pleasant, though because it was a piece written by Mozart, was nothing less than virtuosic. In other words, very pretty package, but man, it packed a punch!
Complex and intricate, pianist Jonathan Biss didn't shy away from the challange. He made the notes his own and added his own personality. I very much enjoyed his bravery with the piece…and I wasn't the only one. He recieved three curtain calls and half the audience was on their feet in ovation.
The second half of the program was Strauss' Alpine Symphony. The most obvious obvservation: it was loud!!! Actually, I amend that statement: most of the time, it was loud, but there were a few very beautiful quiet moments in the 22 movement piece.
Now, I know 22 movements sounds like a lot, and it is, but some movements were only a minute long and it moved at such a rapid pace that it was diffcult to tell when one began and one ended. It was definitely an epic piece of music.
It's almost mind-boggling to understannd how on earth one person could juggle so many instruments and compose such a broad piece. I highly suggest listening to this work sooner rather than later. It's definitely something to hear before you die. And, as luck would have it, the Pittsburgh Symphony actually recorded the Alpine Symphony for CD release. I'm not sure when it will be released, but if it's anything like their last recording, which got amazing AMAZING reviews, then you are in for a very nice treat.
