The gateway to the Highlands, Morobe boasts majestic mountains and lush rainforest filled with butterflies, orchids and tropical birds. The Huon Gulf provides excellent fishing and diving and there are good reefs around the coastal town of Finschhafen, Salamaua and the Siassi Islands. Salamaua District also has war relics, swimming and snorkelling, and walking to Mount Tambu for spectacular views.
Morobe Province curves around the tropical waters of the Huon Gulf. The Saruwaged Mountains, rising from the sea at the tip of the Huon Peninsula are blanketed by tangled and impenetrable rainforest. To the south-west, the fertile Markham Valley rests between equally awesome ranges while the waters between Huon Peninsula and New Britain are dotted with volcanic islands.
Lae is the capital of Morobe and Papua New Guinea's second-largest city. It was once a tiny mission station before the 1920s goldrush at Wau, and later developed into a major seaport. The town is well serviced by banks, hotels, department stores, markets and artefact shops. Goldmining, birdwatching and butterflies can be seen around Wau and Bulolo in the hills south of Lae. Lae is linked to the Highlands by the Okuk Highway.
This haven of greenery has huge trees, bright, noisy birds, lizards and an extensive orchid collection, including the world's largest orchid.
Most of the 2363 graves in this peaceful, well-kept cemetery are of young Australians. Located within the Botanical Gardens, it's a short walk from town along Coronation Drive to Memorial Avenue. A map of the cemetery is available for those interested in locating particular headstones. Contact Morobe Tourism Bureau for more information on 472 7823.
The Matheson Library of technology is the largest in the South Pacific and there is also a collection of artefacts with rare pieces. Buildings worth seeing are the haus tambaran-style (spirit house) coffeehouse and the 36 Sepik-style carved pillars in Duncanson Hall. Parks and gardens surround the buildings. Located 8km out of town on Bumbu Road.
Located next to the University of Technology is 3000sq m of rainforest under a canopy, with a lake, raised walkways, semi-tame birds and beautiful flowers.

Open daily 10am to 4 pm. Contact Ph: 475 7839 for more information.
Lae's main market is located on Air Corps Road west of the old airstrip. Food, produce and local curios are available here. Smaller markets are out of town on Butibum Road and just past the Bumbu Bridge on the way to Unitech.
Street sellers often position themselves outside department stores. Look for bilums and other crafts at the main market. The biggest selection is at Melanesian Arts Centre Ph: 472 1604, located at the old airport below the town.
Goldmining, birdwatching and butterflies are the attractions in this area in the hills south of Lae. Wau Ecology Institute, which does research on the countries ecology, has a small museum with photos of Wau in its heyday, hostel accommodation and a Butterfly Ranch with an amazing variety of insects. The Insect Farming and Trading Agency on Godwin Street in Bulolo, run in conjunction with Lae Unitech, is similar. The small McAdam National Park preserves the last virgin stands of Klinkii and hoop pine and has many birds and tree kangaroos. There is one trail and you will need a guide.
First colonised by Germans in 1885, this small coastal town is peaceful and idyllic. There is guesthouse accommodation, good snorkelling and walking and a lot of history in the area. Beautifully carved Tami Island bowls can be bought at nearby Malasiga Village. Sialum, a two-hour drive north, also has good walking, swimming and snorkelling.

COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) - The Tigers continue to move closer to capturing their third straight American League Central crown with their magic number to clinch the division title down to four with yesterday afternoon's 5-to-4 win over the Mariners at Comerica Park. Detroit took 3 out of 4 this week from Seattle and leads second place Cleveland by 6 games with 9 to play. Victor Martinez went 2-for-2 Thursday for the Tigers with two doubles, two walks and two RBI's with his two bagger in the bottom of the seventh driving in Prince Fielder to cap a two-run rally. Replays appeared to show that Fielder was actually tagged out before touching home plate. Fielder went 3-for-4 with a pair of doubles while Torii Hunter had two hits, including a solo home run.
Detroit starter Doug Fister lasted 7-and-two-thirds innings to earn the win with 10 strikeouts and one walk to improve to 13-and-9. The victory was closed out by Joaquin Benoit with a perfect ninth for his 22nd save of the season. The Tigers got a major scare when shortstop Jose Iglesias went down after being hit in the left wrist by a pitch. However, X-rays were negative and he's listed as day-to-day. Detroit finishes its last home stand of the season this weekend beginning with tonight's opener of a 3-game series against the White Sox, who were idle yesterday.
The Chicago Cubs snapped their 5-game skid Thursday afternoon with a 5-1 win at Milwaukee. The Red Sox are headed to the playoffs with their victory last night over the Orioles wrapping up at least a wildcard berth while lowering their magic number to one for clinching the AL East. The Los Angeles Dodgers captured the National League West with their win at Arizona.

One of Harley's whackier 'image bikes', in a similar vein to the Harley-Davidson Bad Boy, Street Bob and Night Rod. The Harley-Davidson Night Train is a Europe-only model based on the Softail. It's lean, mean and very black and it goes pretty much as it looks. If you like the style of the Harley-Davidson Night Train you won't be disappointed.
1580cc, 67bhp, 115mph, Insurance group 15
The Harley-Davidson Dyna Wide Glide is the Harley motorcycle for the real Easy Rider/Chopper fans. Basic Hog architecture (big twin mill, twin shock 'Dyna' rear end) gets the full-on 'bro' treatment with raked out, widely-splayed (hence the Wide moniker) forks, 21-inch wire front wheels, pull-back Ape-hangers, 'bobtail' rear fender and forward-mounted 'highway' pegs. As a motorcycle, ponderous. As a style statement, the ...
1584cc, 65bhp, 115mph, Insurance group 15
The Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide has long been the basic, entry level 'Big Twin' in Harley-Davidson's motorcycle range whether that be in 1340, 1450 or in the latest 1584, fuel-injected (the I bit) guise. As such the Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide is honest, straight forward and, arguably, the best value motorcycle of the bunch. Just don't expect any frills.
1584cc, 67bhp, 115mph, Insurance group 15
Another Harley staple aimed at riders with traditional tastes who are looking for a machine that's both comfortable and easy to handle. The Harley-Davidson Dyna Low Rider combines a low seat, mid-mounted foot controls and pull back bars for easy comfort. Like all 2007 Hogs it also benefits from the new 1558 engine, too.
1584cc, 65bhp, 110mph, Insurance group 15
Definitive Harley. If retro-style cruising is your thing, the Harley-Davidson FLSTF Fat Boy has all the right bits in the right places, from the big Milwaukee V-twin motor to the characteristic disc wheels and even the badge on the tank. Not the most versatile or comfortable of Hogs, but the Harley-Davidson FLSTF Fat Boy is almost certainly the best looking.

Antique Specs: "… Spyhole fans had been made for some time, with peep holes of gauze or mica worked into the pattern on the leaf of the fan or spyholes drilled into the sticks and guardsticks. Mirrors had also been mounted on the guard sticks. The lady could thus preserve her modesty by covering her eyes with a fan whilst still being able to see anything that she wanted to. From this it was a short step to the optical fan and several types were developed.
Spyhole Fans: For short sight a single concave lens could be mounted in one of the spyholes, effectively forming a Quizzer or Quizzing Glass. This was then further developed into a Galilean telescope by mounting a convex lens in the outer guardstick and a concave lens in the inner guardstick. Lining up the holes in the intervening sticks, when the fan was closed and the blades rested upon one another, produced a simple tube with a lens at each end. The resulting spyglass could even be adjusted for focus by varying the separation of the closed sticks.
Remember that the most decorative face of the fan was always shown to other people and is the Obverse side. The Reverse side of the fan could often be quite plain as it didn't matter being presented only to the user. Thus the guardstick nearest to the user's face would be on the reverse and so, if only one lens was fitted, it would provide a better field of view placed on the reverse guardstick (a quizzer).
Spyglass Fans: The miniaturization of telescopes allowed a spyglass to be set in the central pivot holding the sticks, usually with a draw tube to allow focusing but sometimes with a single fixed tube. The 360 degree cockade fan usually had the spyglass in the central pivot, where it could be used discreetly from behind the open fan."
"Miniature spyglass fans were for ladies to spy on their neighbours without it being thought they were looking at anything at all; in that sense they went a stage further than the mere diversionary tactics of the jealousy glass… (the first image) a cockade brisé fan which is of stained horn, clouté with steel, bearing gilded and silver ornamentation. You can see it glistening at the ends of its 'sunbeam' edges. It dates from circa 1810. Clouté is a difficult word to interpret, it refers to the small rounds dots of gold or silver leaf paper. which were like bits of confetti glued on and then rubbed into pre-made pits in the material of the sticks. In English the verb 'to clout' (amongst its other meanings such as 'hit') means to patch or stud, usually with metal, often in a heavy-handed or rough manner, but in French the verb 'clouter' means to 'adorn' with nails and it refers to the decorative use of metal. it has an altogether more delicate and refined meaning. "
Antique Specs veoyeurism of terms
Sticks: The skeleton of the fan which revolves around a Pivot at the base. The two outer Sticks (blades), upper and lower, are called Guardsticks or just guards and may be thicker and more profusely decorated. Sticks can be made of many materials, tortoiseshell, horn, ivory, bone, mother-of-pearl, wood and mica. Sometimes it can be difficult to distinguish between bone and ivory but, generally speaking, ivory will be slightly whiter and also have a very slight sheen. Tiny dark striations noted occasionally with bone might well be the channels left by tiny blood vessels since they fill up with dirt which darkens them. Differentiating between Horn & Tortoiseshell can also sometimes be quite difficult even when you are holding the item in your hands. Many Tortoiseshell items are obvious because of the characteristic striations of colour, the problems arise mainly with very dark and with blonde shell, both of which may have virtually no striations.
As far as spectacles frames are concerned, and especially with heavier "Library" frames, shell spectacles fronts are often made up of layers of thin shell spliced together under heat and pressure. With careful examination these layers may be visible - a positive identification of tortoiseshell. These layers may be present in some thicker shell guardsticks".
Leaf: The Leaf is the portion of the fan placed on to and over the Sticks; it can be made of silk, paper, lace, gauze or chicken skin (very fine and resembling paper). Usually the Leaf is attached to the upper part of the Sticks called the Ribs and holds the Sticks together. It can be single or double (to cover the Sticks from the rear). Leaf fans usually open out to around 160 degrees.
Brisé: A fan consisting of Sticks only, which are held together usually by a ribbon fixed near the top. The sticks are usually wider and carved, pierced, or decorated.
Cockade: A fan, either Leaf or Brisé, which opens up to 360 degrees around a central pivot. The Guardsticks are usually extended to form a handle.
Clouté: Discs or sequins used as decoration, they can be of many materials (most commonly cut steel) and are either glued into small pre-made depressions (pits) made in the sticks or pinned with metallic thread or mother of pearl. Comparable to confetti, these can rarely be gold, silver, or even mica.
Gorge: The part of the fan, usually the exposed Sticks, between the bottom of the Leaf and the Pivot.
Arrow Shape: As fans were frequently given as a present to a lady, many brisé fans were carved so that when closed they resembled an arrow (Cupid's).
This is one of my favourite things I have comes across while researching today: "Even the snuff were exploited in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to conceal small telescopes that were used to scrutinize passersby on theboulevards. They met with wonderful examples of snuff glasses in gold and precious stones. . . "
"Scented environments enameled brass-shaped building, complete with columns, guarding the main gate and the service. In the center of the side walls of the building is inserted a small telescope fixed focus."
"Needle Holder ivory engraved with brass fixtures.On the bottom is inserted a telescope. It could also be used as a toothpick holder"
"Tobacco gilt brass oval, engraved motifs north-east. At the center of the telescope is fixed focus. It was used for snuff."
"Tobacco and gold turtle. The body is completely turtle, while the interior and the moldings are gold.On the cover is inserted a portrait of Napoleon-sealed transparent semi-precious stones (carnelian). At the top there is a two-cannocchialino stretch."
"Tobacco ivory and gold. On the cover is inserted in a composition of enamel, gold thread and dried flowers. At the top there is a two-cannocchialino stretch."
Some of my posts today will have a bit of long text but it's well worth the read and besides when have I ever lead you astray with long text?
Les Incroyables: Precious object with four small telescopes pendant, mounted on a brass chatelaine, of various shapes and an eyeglass case with mother of pearl shell.This type of pendant Lunettes Breloques was in vogue in the early nineteenth century and was brought to the vest with some fassamani: it was the prevailing fashion for Incroyables (fops and dandies) who wanted to get noticed on the streets of Paris.
"Set of 5 small telescopes mounted on a pendant brass chatelaine. The pendants are of different shape. This type of telescope pendant Lunettes Breloques was in vogue in the early nineteenth century, was brought to the vest along with a few pairs of glasses (fassamani). It was the prevailing fashion for les incroyables that roamed the streets of Paris with a single purpose: to get noticed."
Early 18th century:Telescope spiral told skeleton, silver gilt, engraved on the eyepiece and the objective. The body is composed of ten rings hinged together, allowing the lengthening and shortening of the telescope and hence the focus.
One of my favorites: Telescope with tie belt with gold and pearl. The objective and eyepiece are made by a crown of pearls, but the rod is mother of pearl and gold flows into a body, pierced with carry-pearl.
So sneaky! The telescope is inserted into a rock crystal bottle shaped like a snail. The telescope has two stretch and is manufactured in brass. Although this pendant is part of the concealment of objects in the scopes of use that occurred at the beginning of the nineteenth century in France. This type of object encountered a lot of luck, as it was customary to bring the fragrance into the pockets that were used routinely. (Until the late nineteenth century were employees of ammonium salts to revive the unconscious and this kind of bottle, in some cases, was also used to contain these salts.) On the outer surface of the bottle, there are diamond-shaped three-dimensional work.)
"Imagine the scene…you are in the theatre attending the latest boring production by Mr So-and-So when Lady Talk-of-the-Town takes her seat further down your row. How can you appear to be watching the performance whilst really spying on what the scandalous lady is up to?
The answer was to use one of these - a 'jealousy glass' designed to look like a simple straight-barrelled spyglass but in fact containing an oblique lens and side aperture so you can look at what is happening to your left or right. The aperture was usually less conspicuous than this example, though maybe sometimes the user wanted to be caught!
The technical name for a side-looking opera or field glass with an oblique mirror is 'polemoscope'. The German-Polish astronomer Johannes Hevelius (1611-1687) claimed to have invented it in 1637, describing it in his book about the moon, Selenographia(1647) and apparently he named it after the Greek word for war because he thought it could have military uses although Robert Hooke examined one and found the viewing angle too narrow for this. It was as a fun plaything that the invention really took off in the 18th century.
The jealousy glass at the top has a brass eyepiece and blue enamel casing featuring white decorative embellishments. A hinged 'lens cover' conceals a storage compartment (probably for snuff or a pomade). There is of course no lens there at all. Instead an oval mirror with a surrounding green cord opens to the side.
The second, much less blatant, jealousy glass contained all the accoutrements a gentleman might desire. It is incorporated within a gold-mounted etui with a brass body covered in green-stained fishskin. A magnetic compass has been set into the brass cap. The wooden core to the etui contains a gentleman's manicure set including nail scissors, hinged ivory note-slide, pencil, folding knife, needle and tweezers with a file handle.
Ladies were thought to want other things, so the female equivalent, shown here in an example by Bointaburet from early 19th century Paris contained a pill receptacle in the end beneath a lid and a miniature scent bottle just 2cm wide that fitted within the barrel. Should your neighbour's antics overwhelm your tender sensitivities the other contents would help revive you!"
Artifacts date to the 18th century
The second artifact is also french and dates to the late 19th century. "Binoculars Brass golden turtle neck pierced and engraved. The body of the binoculars decorated in gilt brass roses, there are twelve porcelain cameos. The focus wheel is mother of pearl"
The third design is French (notice a theme?) and is from the Charles X era. "Embossed brass binoculars. The handle is made of tortoise. The body of the binoculars is closed completely on itself and this type was called to Pomponne."
The last pair of spy wear "Binoculars accordion, brass-covered front turtle."
"An update to my original vintage subminiature spy watch-cameras post (link) the other week with this remarkable find (Thanks to Alex at QP). This 1886 Victorian Lancaster Pocket Watch Camera predates what I thought to be the first camera watch in 1907. It just sold at a Bonhams auction for £18,000
From Bonhams;
The Lancaster Ladies Watch Camera was brought into Bonhams by a gentleman whose grandfather had owned it originally. He was a cabinetmaker at the Birmingham-based firm J. Lancaster & Son, probably working on the many wooden cameras sold by the company. The vendor, consigning several watches to one of Bonhams' sales, noticed that among his collection was what looked like an ordinary nickel-plated pocket watch case when closed – but when he opened it he discovered that it actually contained a tiny camera inside.
Lionel Hughes, Bonhams' Camera Specialist, was delighted to come across the piece:"This is a truly exceptional piece, and the price achieved at Bonhams today reflects this," he explained. "The Lancaster Watch Camera was patented in October 1886 and made until 1890. Such tiny cameras were the forerunners for the 'spy' camera – a mechanism disguised as a different object. However, it would have been very inconvenient to use as four very small catches had to be released in order to remove the glass screen and to fit a separate metal sensitised material holder for each exposure. As a result, the model sadly sold badly and is much rarer than the improved version which came on the market in 1890. The ladies' pattern is therefore particularly special, and only four original models are known to exist.""

Blair Harrison, the former coach in Brookstone of Columbus who left for a job in Tennessee last year, is back in Georgia.
The Tennessee native has been hired as head coach at Towns County in the north Georgia mountains.
"All their schools are on the same campus,'' Harrison told the Knoxville News. I'll get to work with my wife. My kids are going to be on the same campus. The facilities are wonderful. They've just never won in football. They think they can, and they're going to give it one last shot."
Harrison was head coach at Kingston and led the to a 7-5 finish in his only season. Harrison spent nine seasons at Brookstone and had a record of 73-29. His team advanced to the Class A quarterfinals in 2007.
Towns County has achieved only one winning season (2008) since resuming varsity football in 1975. The school has not played a region schedule since 2005 or won a region game since 1999.

If you don't have an ego, Towns County is a great situation but winning will not come easy. I applaud the decisions that will allow the kids to be successful. If the HC is a great role model, upstanding in the community, and can produce a competitive team each Friday night, the rest will take care of itself.

Towns County needs a much needed shot in the arm. TC has been playing with 20 -22 players for several years. The feeder program is good, but younger boys do not want a part of the big time when it always comes down to LOSING! Good luck to the new coach Harrison. This coach knows how to win and must bring winning to Towns County. Attitude of the whole school, as to football, will need to increase. I would like to see Towns County become competitive in football or just drop it. They need to start winning at least 6 games a year.

On the second day last on the island of Crete we stayed in a hotel next to an amazing beach. Under the waves there were fish and small caves along the shoreline. There were lots of Russian tourists.

Five for Friday: Most amazing things about Orioles first baseman Chris Davis' season
Chris Davis has been the talk of baseball, becoming a household name by blasting homers as if he were some kind of baseball-crushing creature from another galaxy. His numbers have been out of this world. Davis is in the top 2 in the American League in batting average, home runs, RBIs, slugging percentage and OPS, and he is fourth in runs scored. In short, the Orioles first baseman's breakout season has been amazing, and in this week's Five for Friday, Matt Vensel lists the five most amazing things about it.
Image 1 of 5
Chris Davis is averaging one hit in every three at-bats( Gene Sweeney Jr., Baltimore Sun / June 13, 2013 )
Power has never been a question for Davis, who has hit towering home runs at every level, from high school to the big leagues. But I'm sure that few baseball insiders believed he would be batting .337 as the Orioles neared the midway point of the season. After all, his career high for batting average was .285 in 80 games as a rookie. Plus, Davis has been more selective; his 32 walks are five shy of his career high. The home runs get the headlines, and rightfully so, but Davis has become a much better hitter overall.

From Vicksburg, Mississippi, Maj. Gen. William Sherman launched a campaign to take the railroad center at Meridian, Miss. and possibly to push on to Selma, Alabama, and threaten Mobile. Sherman ordered Brig. Gen. William Sooy Smith to lead a cavalry force of 7,000 from Memphis, Tennessee, on February 1, 1864, south through Okolona, along the Mobile & Ohio Railroad, and to meet the rest of the Union force at Meridian, on February 10. With the main force of app. 20,000 men, Sherman set out on the 3rd for Meridian, but made feints on various other locations.
Against orders, Smith delayed ten days, while waiting for reinforcements, and did not start out until February 11. Destroying crops and railroad track along the way, Smith's force met almost no opposition, and 1,000 former slaves joined them. Smith was supposed to meet with Sherman at Meridian on the 10th, but he never arrived. Sherman left Meridian on the 20th, due in part to concern over Smith's whereabouts. Smith neared West Point, 90 miles north of Meridian, on the 20th, and fought with Confederate cavalry units at Prairie Station and Aberdeen. Smith—knowing that Maj. Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest commanded the troops he was fighting, concerned about the fate of the former slaves with him, and not knowing how many of the enemy he faced—decided to concentrate at Prairie Station, and, on the morning of the 21st, he set out for West Point.
Shortly after dawn on the 21st, Col. Jeffrey Forrest's Confederate cavalry brigade engaged Smith. Withdrawing at times, Forrest drew Smith into a swamp west of the Tombigbee River. Other Rebel troops arrived and the fighting intensified. Smith was sure this was a trap, and since he was greatly outnumbered, ordered a retreat. The rearguard held off the Confederates for about two hours before withdrawing. About the same time, Maj. Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest arrived and ordered a pursuit. Skirmishing occurred the rest of the day. At sunup on the 22nd, the Rebels attacked Smith just south of Okolona on the prairie. More Confederate troops arrived, causing breaks in the Union battle line, precipitating a retreat. For most of the rest of the day, they engaged in a running battle for eleven miles, with both sides attacking and counterattacking. Col. Forrest was killed during one Rebel charge. The Yankees finally broke off and headed for Pontotoc. Nathan Bedford Forrest realized that his men were nearly out of ammunition and did not order a pursuit.

Salsa Chicken on Garlic Toast
on June 15, 2012 in Recipes 2 Comments
- 6 oz Chicken Breast
- 1 Schwan's Garlic Texas Toast
- 2 tbsp Salsa of your choice
- 1-2 tbsp Guacamole
- Pre-heat oven to 375° and place the Garlic Texas Toast on an ungreased cookie sheet. Place bread in the oven on middle rack and cook for 6-7 minutes.
- While that is cooking grill your chicken breast on an inside grill or grill pan until fully cooked. About 5 minutes each side.
- Flip the bread in the oven and cook for about 4 more minutes until both sides are evenly toasted. While it is finishing, prepare salsa chicken.
- Cut your grilled chicken into pieces and place in a small mixing bowl. Stir salsa into chicken pieces adding any additional seasonings if desired. (I use a medium sauce and don't add any spices in this step, but here's where you personalize spice preference).
- When the bread comes out of the oven, pile salsa chicken right on it with juices and all. Top with guacamole and serve warm.
Nutrition per Serving: Calories 385, Total fat 14g, Fiber 2.6g, Carbs 26g, Protein 39g
Because of the high carb content of this recipe, I highly suggest using it as a lunch. Eating your complex carbs (starchy carbs) earlier in the day allows your body time to use them for energy. Eating them later at night tends to make your body store them as fat to use later.
*I use Schwan's Garlic Texas Toast here because it is delicious and cooks from frozen. If you make your own garlic toast, the nutritional values will change some. **My favorite guacamole is either Wholly Guacamole (which can be bought in most grocery stores in the produce section near the salad bags) or if you are in the Orlando area Larry Bly The Guac Guy makes an excellent guacamole (and delivers).

"I really liked the design of the invitation, simple yet elegant and cute for the occacion that we needed, the paper quality and color was very good."
"This card is perfect for pre teen or really any age "girly girl" at heart. The colors are so vibrant. I chose a pearl top finish that gives a hint of shimmer. We also ordered the silver envelopes and matching address labels. They are awesome about letting you customize all these little details so it reflects your taste and is exactly what you want! My daughter loves these and was so exited to send them to her friends."
"I created a sweet 16 invitation using this card as my template. The designers at Tiny Prints worked with me to remove the original text for a quincerra and even took off some extra scrolls and curly qs because my daughter is more of an outdoorsy girl. It turned out so beautiful and we will treasure it for years to come in her scrapbook of the birthday. Thank you Tiny Prints!"
"I loved the design of this invitation and thought it was perfect for my daughter's 13th Birthday party at the sugar factory. I only wish I had a little more room to include information, but the design team was able to accommodate that for me. The quality was excellent and I placed my order on a Sunday evening and with expedited shipping received it on Tuesday!"
"I honestly couldn't be any more pleased with this product! In all honesty I was thinking I was going to get a cheap example but this exceeded my expectations for miles!! It's possibly one of the gorgeous invitations ever!! So in love! Thank you!!"

I stopped in at the Wine Cafe in downtown Fayetteville to pick up two bottles of a Maranges that I had sampled on Marquis de la Fayettette's birthday. (2010 Domaine Bachelet-Monnot Maranges 1er Cru La Fussiere which seems a decent Burgundy for the $35 point.) It was a beautiful day with temp. around 69-71 Fahrenheit so I sampled three wines from the dispensing machine and took my glass to a table outside. I was joined by a young Special Forces medic-in-training. He is from Oregon and has lived in Germany, Poland, Indonesia and traveled in South America so of course he was assigned Mandarin Chinese as his language of study. I'm looking for Spanish wines available locally to include in a Spanish tapas evening at my church in January or February and I liked both that I tried today. The 2009 BODEGAS JUAN GIL MONASTRELL, JUMILLA, was very fruity with red berries and cherries. it was an attractive light ruby color. I can see it being a crowd pleaser and a QPR at $15.99 a bottle.
After a half-glass pour of this I went on to a taste of 2005 ARDEVOL COMA D'EN ROMEU PRIORAT RED BLEND. This was full-bodied with 14.5% alcohol but pleasant to drink. Red-brick color with brownish or umber shadings and I thought the description on the dispenser (from a wine critic or the distributor?) was spot on. It mentioned mulberries and spices and having grippy tannins Indeed this was more grippy than the Monastrell although four years younger. It had been recently opened. Displayed a mild funk or earthiness and came on with a strong finish. The ones who prefer big, bold red wines may like this one. It is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Garnacha/Grenache. The Wine Cafe sells it for $23.99 a bottle.
I then went back for a taste of a sweet wine the HAUCK RIESLING SPATLESE RHEINHESSEN. i forgot to note the vintage on this. I found some of the peach and pear notes mentioned in the description. It was spritzig when poured and quite acidic even with residual sugar. I think I can do better than this one if I want to include a Riesling in a tasting event. A pleasant way to spend an hour or more on a nice afternoon. The medic said he likes how the al fresco dining in downtown Fayetteville captures a bit of a European vibe. (When I lived in Nurnberg-Furth I was in a sixth-floor apartment overlooking a large courtyard with children's playset and sandbox, outdoor dining from an Italian restaurant and a bakery and a large fountain. It was "wunderbar" in nice weather.)

- Great dining spot, will be back (:NomnomnomDined on 9/12/2014Had a great time on Friday night. The chef was very entertaining and made the experience at least twice more fun than any other hibachi place I've ever been to. The food was great and actually it was a lot better than any other hibachi I've gotten before too. Definitely will be back again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Chef Richard is the best!!!C0nciergeDined on 9/12/2014Great culinary experience, Wait staff was "in a hurry", forgot that 2 customers in my table were celebrating their birthdays and wasn't very attentive in general but Our Hibachi Chef saved the day. Ambiance was horrible, as a beardy customer from the table in front of us kept on bossing and bulling his chef for not cooking as they "do it in the hood", I believe Management should have gotten involved to kick that uneducated and obnoxious customer out of Benihana. I've been many times to FLL, Doral and MIA locations and this was by far our worst experience, LEAVING ASIDE CHEF RICHARD, HE WAS GREAT.Special Features:
- Great place to celebrate a birthdaysouthflalivingDined on 9/10/2014Fun and the food is very good! Priced well for what you get. Great for birthdays or visiting companySpecial Features:
- Could have been a great nightOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/4/2014The issue was the guests we were sitting with. From the moment they got to the table they rushed the service, forcing their order on the hostess and going so far as to feign having diabetes in an attempt to get their food faster. When the server finally approached the table one of the other guests was speaking loudly on her cellphone and another was barking orders about how he wanted his food cooked before the chef even got an opportunity to introduce himself. All this could be overlooked but it was my birthday guests first time and the other guests behavior resulted in us not getting the show and experience we came there for. We expressed this to the server and she apologized but that was it. We payed a pretty penny to be disappointed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- No tasteOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 9/1/2014J J was the cook and the food was terrible. I had to return my entire plate .
- Great timeSFLJonnyDined on 8/31/2014I set the reservation with Open Table. I had requested a table with a view and mentioned in the notes it was for an anniversary. We got there and were seated within a few minutes. They accommodated the view part perfectly as we could see through the window to the Fort Lauderdale Intracoastal and all the nice boats cruising by. They even gave us a special dessert at the end of the meal. Service was great and our chef was very friendly and talented with the showmanship. I would recommend this location.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great Lunch with GrandkidsVickiDined on 8/14/2014It was my granddaughters' first trip to Benihana. They both thought it was the greatest thing ever. The chef went out of his way to entertain the girls and we really appreciated it. The food was good, but the show was better.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/13/2014Always fun with kids at that place, not complicated...filet mignon and lobster was great...only down side...their salad dressing !!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- restaurant for amateur dinersfoodiesDined on 8/13/2014The shrimp and lobster dinner I had was old and overcooked. I wasn't expecting gourmet but when paying $35.00, I did expect decent food. Table was small and cramped and the chef had to serve the dinner without the vegetables as he couldn't coordinate the meals. When you get the zucchini half way through the meal and the onions after you have finished, something is wrong. My wife's meal wasn't any better. I have dined at similar restaurants before, so I know how things should have gone. My experience was so bad, that we decided to start eating at home.

He complained about the job the entire time. The entire table complained about the fried rice. He told us it was sushi rice because they ran out of the rice for fried rice and that we should complain but don't tell the manager he told us about the rice.
- Excellent ExperienceAza23Dined on 8/5/2014The main reason to go to Benihana's is the experience. They have trained Chefs that cook and put on a show right in front of you. You get a lot of good food, even though it is a bit expensive it is worth it.Special Features:

- ImpersonalEm2DINEDined on 8/1/2014This was one of the most impersonal reception greeting to a restaurant we have ever had. When we were taken/herded to out table the hostess never even waited for our whole party to be presant, as one was paying the bar bill. Throughout the whole experience we felt like a spectator in a zoo. Sorry !
- Server and Chef are amazingMaressaDined on 7/29/2014From the time you sit at your table until you leave everything is amazing. However the hostess are HORRIBLE, I had a reservation at 8pm, arrived at 7:40pm did not get a clicker and at 8:10 went up to them again and apparently the hostess forget to check me and my family in. We didn't sit until 8:30pm and people that arrived after us, sat before us. so after waiting for almost 1hr with reservations, the waitress and chef were amazing. Just really disappointed with the waiting time granted it was week day, they weren't crowded there was no reason to make us wait like that.Special Features:

- Great food bad serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 7/23/2014My husband and I went to Benihana's for our anniversary two days ago. We were very dissaipointed with the service, the chef Sergio was great, but the waitress was horrible, she spilled sauce on my dress and barely apologized, then disappeared for a while until I had to beg her for soda water to clean my dress. Also, a family next to us were there celebrating the dad's birthday, the staff knew it was a birthday and they did not bother to properly celebrate it, nor did they took a picture of the family. That family were also complaining about the service to us too. It seems to me the bad service was due to the waitress's lack of interest in making sure out table was taken care off.Special Features:
- Long WaitOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 7/23/2014Even though we had a reservation, we had to wait for another 15-20min.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Very good experienceFLGGMDined on 7/21/2014The filet mignon and scallops were excellent, along with the chicken stir fried rice and soup. The onion and zuchini portions were on the small side. The chef put on a great show! The restaurant is dated and needs a bit of refreshing. The windows overlooking the intracoastal waterway were covered with moisture -- between the panes of glass -- blocking the beautiful view.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Pride and La Jaula
Check this band out!
The Alibi is throwing a totally amazing Pride party at Casa Esencia, and some of my mysterious friends are playing. Three of the best (and most fun, and good looking) musicians around have formed the band La Jaula, and they're going to sex it up on Wednesday, June 8. The group is hard to catch, often playing underground cabarets or house parties, but the members have agreed to appear at the Alibi Pride event in all their full glory.
They perform Cuban boleros, Argentinian tangos, Mexican ballads and more, while playing characters that are sultry and funny.
La Jaula goes on pretty early—around 7:30 p.m. or 8—and you want to eat the delicious food from Standard Diner and Rodeo Grill before it's gone anyway, so come at the beginning of the party.
Wednesday, June 8 at 7:00pm - June 9 at 12:00am

March 1 - November 30
RV and Tent Camping
Visitors who wish to stay overnight at the park may camp at one of the 142 campsites on the pond's northern shore. 130 of the sites are equipped with water and electric hookups. Tents and recreational vehicles can both be accommodated beneath the tall loblolly pines. Two primitive camping areas are also available for youth groups by reservation only.
The rustic 2-room camping cabins at Trap Pond have a wonderful location next to the water. Enter the cabin at the screened-in porch and move inside to the living area with table, benches and chairs. The bedroom has a double bed and bunk beds to sleep four adults. The units have A/C and heat for 3-season comfort, and offer a great camping experience with protection from the weather. A picnic table, grill and potable water are located outside, and campers will find convenient bath and shower facilities nearby.
The cabins are available from March 1 through November 30, and may be rented for any number of nights up to 14 days. Weekend reservations must include Friday and Saturday nights. Holiday weekends require a minimum stay of three nights (Friday through Sunday). Reservations are accepted up to 7 months prior to the date of arrival.
Since animals are not allowed in cabins, campers should not bring their pets.
Yurts are round stationary structures with canvas walls that feature: a single and double bed bunked together, a double bed size futon, an outdoor seating area, and outdoor deck. Yurts are a fun and easy alternative to pitching a tent yourself, but still allow you to experience the rustic feel of camping outdoors. Perfect for the new camper! Maximum 5 people per yurt.
The yurts are available March 1 through November 30, with a maximum stay of two consecutive weeks. Weekend reservations must include two nights -- Friday and Saturday, OR Saturday and Sunday. All other times of the year, yurts may be rented for any number of nights up to 14 days. Reservations are accepted up to 7 months prior to the date of arrival.
Since animals are not allowed in yurts, guests should leave their pets at home.
Parking is located within a short walking distance of the yurts. Cars may not be driven directly to the sites. Handcarts are available for transporting luggage from the parking area to the campsites.
Tents are not permitted on yurt campsites.

My boyfriend lives out of state so I know exactly when we had sex (2/8) so it has only been 10 days but about 3 days ago my breast started hurting so bad, and I have not been able to eat anything but pickles and beef jerky without throwing up. I been a little crampy but not too bad. We used the pull out method, but we were together multiple times within the day.
I have an 18 month old little girl now and with her I started having morning sickness the week before my missed period and two weeks later went to the doctor thinking I had the stomach flu so I am not sure what is going on now. I have a regular check-up with the obgyn wed would they be able to tell me???
Thank you in advance!

Ted Boettner, executive director of the West Virginia Center on Budget and Policy, a liberal think tank, responded to the question, "What do you think the role of state government should be?"
"Our public investments in schools, health care, transportation, innovation and public safety are not only essential to our quality of life, but they provide the foundation for a strong economy," he replied. "Public investments are critical to a broadly shared prosperity.
"Our role as public servants is to plant the seeds of prosperity so we can build a strong economy. Effective public policy creates good-paying jobs that will make our state a better place to live, work, conduct business and raise a family.
"This means developing a talented and sufficient workforce," he said. "It means investing in innovation so entrepreneurs can create businesses. It means building the middle class so we have enough people and companies that want to buy things. And enough investments that we continue to maintain a trustworthy government and legal system with strong accountability and transparency, reliable infrastructure, schools and hospitals, and that we have enough capital for financial investment."
Others view state government's role as much more limited. One debate focuses on state efforts to stimulate economic development. West Virginia actively recruits businesses and can offer potential employers free land, financing, tax breaks and free workforce training.
"The state should always remember they are here to support business," said John Skidmore, who developed many of the businesses off of the Interstate 79 Flatwoods Exit. "So many times well-intentioned programs end up wasting our tax dollars. I'm a firm believer in the old adage that if the service or product is listed in the phone book, the government shouldn't be in that business.
"In general, private/public partnerships don't operate as efficiently as those in the private sector," he said, referring to Stonewall Resort, which has bonds, issued via the state, that have been in default since 2006. "That is just one example I can think of that has personally affected our tax-paying, self-funded business directly.
"A better option would have been to find a way to lease those state park lands out long-term to private developers at a reasonable rate and let them fund the project.
"If a major expert in the industry doesn't think the property will cash flow and passes on the project, the state should think long and hard before investing the taxpayers' money in a project where they have little experience. However, many of these types of projects become political and have very little oversight so they proceed without a lot of questions regarding the financials behind them."
"The government should not be in the business of picking winners and losers in any industry," Skidmore said. "Let the market decide. The government's role needs to be only to set fair and consistent policy and allow the private sector to have rules they can count on long term to operate and grow their business."
A former leader in state government explained it simply.
"The state picks winners and losers," this person said. "Look at Williamstown: You've got Fenton Glass, which paid every tax and was there for generations and is now a shadow of its former self. Just down the road you've got Hino Motors, which got every tax break the state could muster."

Rated 3.8 out of 5�by 13 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by country walker walking safer I live on a forested rural country road with light traffic.. no sidewalks or bike ways. I feel a lot safer wearing this as I walk with my dog especially in the evening around 8 when it gets dusky. The vest is comfortable and light to wear. June 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by oc-runner47 Great for Safe Running I like this vest. It does not hinder my running and it works well in the night. My neighbor said the vest was the first thing he saw when he drove past me. It gets an A for safety and visibility. March 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by dfesler49 This product has great features. I am very pleased with the Nathan Tri-Color Reflective Vest. While wearing it out on evening runs, I know that motorists are able to see me. It is a good fit and I even like the small pocket on the front. November 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by cahillmd Great Product The vest is great! The fit is good and it serves it's purpose! Also, the price was right! November 13, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5�by Pir2010 Not very reflective I run often on dark roads and based on how late cars move over, I don't think the vest is very reflective. I haven't noticed a big difference in vehicle reaction from when I ran without the vest. I suppose it is still better than nothing. September 26, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by miner49er Nathan Vest Been looking for a vest, this one seems to fit the need. July 30, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5�by NYCbuyer Buying this was a mistake I was on a business trip and I forgot my reflecting vest; so, I needed a vest for an early morning run. I was in a hurry; so, I did not look closely. This vest is mostly black with just a small area of reflecting material. I think Dick's had a vest that was orange. I just picked up the wrong one. March 7, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5�by Kir The vest is too short The vest is lightweight and comfortable. However, it is really short. I am 5' 10" and it does not even cover my waist. I feel like I am wearing a piece of clothing made for a child. July 28, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5�by Chris Knight Fits well, looks great... I purchased this vest to wear when I'm out on walks with the family as well as organized groups I lead. I'm 6'1" and it fits well. The vest works great. I feel more safe knowing that drivers can see us. June 25, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5�by Rackul Just as I expected This reflective vest works well for running. It is not bulky and doesn't have many loose ends to get caught on things. Fit comfortably over layers of clothes. Satisfied so far. May 21, 2012

These news updates are more boring after the next it seems. Modmyi is losing its luster, or maybe the Dev's just run out of things to make.
When I can turn Auto-Correction off to do the exact same thing its not news worthy. Neither is another ****** star wars battle between Apple and Samsung. Get some good news.
Well, this is great news for people like me who want to turn off autocorrect ONLY in Safari search. Not for you? That's fine; no need to poop on the fun.
The Auto Correction toggle disables all auto correction everywhere. People don't always want that because they forget to turn it on/off or the prefer it to be on most of the time. Plus, this tweak is unique and has never been done before in this circumstance in the the manner that it does. For that reason, it is absolutely newsworthy. Also, some people may want a capability like this just for Safari and not everything. Your opinion does not reflect everyone's views.When I can turn Auto-Correction off to do the exact same thing its not news worthy.
Suggestions? I as well as the other writers on ModMyi are always open to suggestions.Get some good news.
Great tweak. Stuff like this I would never think of. I would just put up with it. Yet the idea was made and implemented in minutes.
Keep up the great work modders!
It's not really spectacular news, but I downloaded it and installed. I think people are just getting antzy since the new Iphone is around the corner and there isnt much news specs/pics about it.
Impressive(ten minutes), it's hard for me to take a shower that fast.
Awesome tweak for those who would need this. I for one like the auto search in safari and find it very useful. Thanks for the news Mr.Tuck
As for the battles between Apple and Samsung, I'm interested in those too as an Apple shareholder. If you're not interested, you're only a click away from another site!
Amazing, thank you, that auto correct kills me every single time, it's not worth it to me though having to turn off auto correct entirely when I can just hit the little x, still this is awesome.
Also, about ALL the people that complain about every post not being new, almost everything that is on the front page is helpful in some way, whether big or small. The only thing that I can see about every post is that there is always one or two people complaining about how those awful people that spend their time writing stories for us, have committed a new crime. Damn writers

Dir / Scr: Kam Kwok-leung
Prod Co: D & B
Cast: Carol Cheng, Cecilia Yip, Michael Fitzereld Wong
1987 / Colour / D Beta / Cantonese / Chi & Eng Subtitles / 93min
Wonder Women is a female version of the odd-couple film, featuring two wannabe beauty queens who bond after losing their bids to win the 1987 "Miss Hung Kung" Beauty Pageant. Like their male counterparts, these are very different lasses, the shattered dream of becoming rich and famous overnight their only common ground. Director-writer Kam Kwok-leung offers a witty portrait of 1980s Hong Kong through the story of their friendship, assaying the vibrant urbanity of the then-colony in all its neon glamor and shallow frivolity. The tone of the film is by turns engaging and ironic, fortified by genuine pathos for the common woman. Carol Cheng, playing a role written specifically for her by Kam, turns in the performance of her glorious career, capturing her character in all her beauty and silliness, strengths and weaknesses, nobility and vulgarity.

The body of the man found in Technology Park early Monday morning has yet to be identified.
Cpl. Edwin Ritter, spokesman for Gwinnett County Police, said an autotopsy was performed on the body and police are waiting for the results.
Early Monday morning police were called to 25 Technology Parkway South in Peachtree Corners where the body of a white male, approximately 6 feet tall and weighing around 200 pounds was found.
The man sustained several wounds to the head, and the homicide unit was called in to investigate. Tuesday, an autopsy was perfomed and the medical examiner said the man likely did not die from his wounds.
"There is no real trama on his body," said Ritter. "It's most likely an overdose."
Ritter said the medical examiner found no fatal injuries, just cuts and bruises to his arms and legs. The man's body was also muddy indicating he may have been in the lake behind the office building before he died.
"We still have not identified the body," said Ritter. "We're waiting on the results of the toxicology report, but it doesn't look like a homicide."
Ritter said the police are waiting for the cause of death before ruling out the man had been killed.

Watched it last night just to see what it would be about and guess what, I liked it?! I was surprised that I actually paid attention. As an Youth At Risk Advisor, I was impressed with how they wrote in the scene how Carrie's friend who had sex regretted it and had a bad experience behind it altogether, Don't want to glamorize sex for teens. I liked finding out her parents and her sister as well. Will be curious to see how it evolves

I'm not a fan of Sex and City. I never like Sarah Jessica Parker but this Carrie certainly looks so much better than that Sarah!
This actress was from Bridge to Tabithia and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. My how much she has grown! I like her from those two movies.
Probable won't watch the Sex and City series. Don't care for it.

Utzon Parken
Utzon Parken
The Utzon Park on Aalborg's new water front constitutes a beautiful frame for the architectural pearl, The Utzon Center. The Utzon Center, as well as the unique concrete benches that characterize the Utzon Park, was designed by Jørn Utzon, who also designed the Sydney Opera House.
Originally, the benches were meant to be placed in the foyer of the Sydney Opera House but have now found their place in Aalborg – the city where Jørn Utzon spent the first 19 years of his life. Aalborg, the fjord, the sail boats and the shipyard have served as a great source of inspiration in Jørn Utzon's designs throughout his career.
