Forbidden Chapter ThreeI smiled at him, pulling him to our shelf of movies. He didn't try to take his hand away, nor did I. He simply stood beside me with a happy little grin as he looked through the movies. I squeezed his hand as I finally tore my gaze from him to look through the movies myself. However I was still in a bit of shock. I guess he just thinks this is what friends do. I mean, he is 18 and should know holding hands with another guy at this age usually doesn't mean friends. But I guess seeing as he hasn't had many friends in his life, he just doesn't understand."Ooh," I heard him squeak, making me giggle lightly. "I love this movie!"He had pulled out 'Grease', a classic I've watched far too many times to even enjoy anymore. But I can make an exception for Dahvie. He happily followed me as I lead him back to my room, still holding hands.I took the movie from him, trying to tug my hand from his so I could put the movie in."What?" He asked after I tugged my hand a little harder."I have to put t
Forbidden Final Chapter~One week later (Friday Afternoon)~Finally, after one long week of being grounded, I finally was allowed to have Dahvie over. He went to school today, and it was the first time I got to see him since that one night. It was like one of those romantic movies, you know, the two don't see each other for awhile and once they meet eyes they run and jump into each others arms, then kiss deeply. I mean, it wasn't exactly like that, it was much more discrete of course. After school we walked together to my house, which is where we are now, silently laying on my bed lost in our own thoughts.I hear him sigh on the other side as he stares at the ceiling, idly playing with his long dark hair."What's up?" I ask, sitting up and facing him."Huh? Nothing, just thinking," he says, sighing again at the end.I eye him suspiciously, "thinking about what?"He pulls himself up to sit up straight and shrugs. "I don't know everything. The future. Us. Just everything. Like what will I be doing in ten years?
Forbidden Chapter EightWe walked inside quietly so his mom wouldn't know I was here."Mom I'm home!" Dahvie yelled from downstairs."I need to talk to you about what happened at school today," she shouted back, obviously pissed off by what had happened."Can I change and take a shower first? I got caught in the rain and I'm soaked."There was a loud sigh from upstairs. "Fine, but hurry up. Your father and I would like to discuss this with you."Dahvie yelled 'okay' before grinning and hugging me. We walked to the bathroom, where he tossed me a towel."I can put your clothes in the dryer if you'd like, it'll only take twenty minutes," he offered, taking off his sweater and throwing it into the empty hamper."Thanks, but, what will I wear while they're drying?" I blushed, feeling a tad bit awkward. Why, I have no idea. Isn't this what I want? To have minimal clothes on with Dahvie?"Heh, guess nothing," he smirked, blushing madly.He removed his shirt, watching me, giving me a look that told me to do so as wel
Forbidden Chapter Four~Two weeks after that night~You ever get the feeling that maybe you should slow down, wait a bit, but at the same time you just can't wait any longer? You don't want to risk anything by going quickly, but don't want to risk anything by going slow? Is it bad or good to wait? You don't want to wait, lose your chance, chicken out, never know what could've been. You just want to do it now and get it over with. However, that feeling stays put in the back of your mind that things don't always go as planned and you should just watch as everything gets laid out for you. But you're impatient. So many questions run through your mind. Finally, you decide to just go for it, risk everything for all. Well, that's me, at this very moment.I stood anxiously outside the decrepit house, still holding on to the feeling of 'new' with it's freshly cut grass and just as freshly painted window trimming. It was most likely a good hundred years old, or it looked that way. It just had that feel to it. The side
Forbidden Chapter Five"So, can we talk?"I sat down on his bed, clenching the dark violet sheets. I'm so scared. My palms are sweating, well actually, pretty much everything is sweating. I mean, I'm about to ask him to be my boyfriend without even a clue to whether he likes guys, let alone me.He sat down next to me, grabbing my hand. It's not a big deal, really, he does it all the time. All the same, I still blushed. I wish even just holding hands meant something to him, but to him it's just a friendly gesture. I guess he assumes that's why I do it, but he's wrong. So wrong."Yeah, what's up?" He asked cheerfully.UGH. I can't do it! "Actually i-it can wait."He squeezed my hand, then turned to face me. He looked concerned. "Jayy, you wanted to talk, why not just do it now?""No, no it's ok. It's not important, really," god I'm such a wuss. I have to do it but... what if he freaks out? If he doesn't like me, this is going to backfire badly. I don't think he'd ever stop being my friend, but that doesn
Forbidden Chapter Seven"Jayy, the principle would like to see you now."I had been waiting in the office for about 45 minutes now. I'm the last person to be talked to, having to sit and listen to the five guys try to plan their lie. We were supposed to be quiet, but obviously they weren't going to listen. The secretary didn't even tell them to be quiet, but I did notice she listened to all that they said and took some notes. They weren't going to get away with their lies.Dahvie was the first to be talked to, then them, and now me. I walked quietly into the principles office, closing the heavy door behind me. Mrs. Mitchell smiled as I walked over to the small metal chair in front of her desk. She wore a light pink blazer with a matching skirt. Her hair was in a tight bun. I'd say she was in her mid 50's, her hair was dark brown with a few grey strands that stuck out against the brown. Her face also showed her age, a few wrinkles by her eyes and mouth. I knew she was a kind woman, her silver eyes showing noth
Forbidden Chapter 1*beep beep beep*I groaned as I slapped the source of the most annoying sound known to man. I hate mornings so much. Rolling over, I tossed my blanket over my head, beginning to drift back asleep."Jayy," I hear a voice a few minutes later. "Jayy, honey, wake up. You're going to be late for school.""I don't want to go," I whined, curling up into a ball and hiding my face even more into my pillows. I heard a sigh before I was surrounded by cool air and blinding light."You'll get up right now or you'll never see your precious phone again.""Fine, no one talks to me anyways," I argued, grabbing my pillow and placing it over my head. It didn't last long before that too was snatched off of me."You're always doing something on your phone, with those things in your ears. If you want to keep them, then I suggest you get up this instant." Rolling over, I looked at my mom, her hands were on her hips. She didn't look too pleased."Ugh, fine. Just five more minutes.""Now, Jeremy." Shit. She ne
Birthday Special"Happy Birthday dear Dahvie, happy birthday to you!" They all sang around me, cheering. Then Jayy and Haley ran forward while I was blowing out the candles, shoving the whole thing in my face. Everyone erupted into laughter as I stood covered in cake."I'll get you for this!" I shouted, chasing them both down the stairs. As soon as we got near the pool I tackled Jayy into it, creating a girly scream from him before a loud splash.We surfaced, only to continue splashing each other and also Haley who was doubled over beside the pool laughing. Ah, my birthdays are always like this. Full of fun and nothing but good times.~After I had put some new clothes on, re-did my makeup, and dried my hair, I joined everyone once again outside on the deck. Drew was cooking something on the barbeque, drink in hand. He obviously was not paying attention to what he was doing, talking to a group of people.I walked through the crowd of maybe fifty people, until I could get to where I suspected Jayy would
A Month Too LongI can't believe he'll be gone for a whole month. I don't know how I can live without Dahvie being around. Dahvie is going to Europe for a month with his mom. He wanted to do something for her since she's supported him throughout his whole life and he felt like he really should do something in return. Which I admire so much about him. He's so caring and sweet, how could I have not fallen for him? I wanted to go with him, but I knew it'd be best to stay. The last time he left for a long time was when he took his girlfriend, now ex-girlfriend, to Vegas. I could've went with them, but I'd definitely feel like a third wheel. Plus, I didn't want to see him with anyone. It pained me to see him with someone else. He was gone for a whole two weeks, and the only way we could talk was over then phone. I just wanted to see his lovely smile again. That's why, after that trip, I bought us a set of webcams so we could talk together every night when we're apart. I hated seeing him leave on that pla
Taking In A Stray - Jahvie Chpt. 1I slid to the ground and pulled my knees to my chest, forcing myself not to cry. After two weeks, I still couldn't believe she had kicked me out..Don't think about it Jayy. I thought as my lip began to quiver. I bit down on it, blinking away my tears. As soon as I was sure that I could keep myself together, I looked up and was slightly surprised to see a car pull up to the near-deserted 7-11 I was currently sitting outside of."Have to pee!" A guy with shoulder length black and rainbow hair yelled, jumping out of the car to run into the building, revealing the answer to my question. I stood and followed, intending on buying at least a little food, since I hadn't eaten in the past few days. I didn't want to spend what little money I had, but I had no choice. My stomach hurt.I was searching through the chips when the guy came out of the bathroom. Now that I was closer to him, and he wasn't sprinting into a building, I got to get a closer look at him. On top of his head, he wore a pair
Jahvie First DateJayy POVI can't believe I'm going on my first date with Dahvie. I'm surprised I worked up my courage to tell him that I liked him more than a friend. Right now I am picking out the perfect outfit. We are supposed to leave in an hour. I decided to go with a black tank top with a skater boy jacket over top, with black skinny jeans. I walked into my bathroom and rummaged through my medicine cabinet for some make up. I put on black eye liner with grey eye shadow. I spiked my hair up a bit, and then I washed my hands. I grabbed my tooth brush and tooth paste. I brushed my teeth, flossed and used mouth wash. I took one last look in the mirror and decided I looked perfect. Just one last addition: a necklace that is an upside down cross, that Dahvie got me for my birthday.I walked down the stairs to wait for Dahvie. A couple minutes went by and he starts coming down the stairs. In my eyes, it was like, all slow motion. I took in his appearance as he was descending down the
You Are My Everything - DahvieXJayy Request"Come on Dahvie come play with us."I couldn't help but comply as the cute brunette pulled on my arm, trying to get me to join her and a bunch of other people in a game of spin the bottle."Aren't we a little old for spin the bottle?" I asked with a smile, still following her into the room anyways."You're never too old for spin the bottle." she replied, smiling up at me, "Maybe I'll get a chance with you?" she winked then went and sat between two of her friends giggling.Looking around the circle, I noticed Jayy sitting next to Sally, looking unusually gloomy. I could understand why, though. Sally and I were immensely popular, as was Garett, but nobody really liked Jayy.I took the empty spot next to him, and he mumbled, "Why am I even here?" before I could answer him, the game started.I watched a little sadly as the brunette from earlier landed on another guy on her turn, but it didn't make me too sad."Bonus round!" one of the guys yelled once it got to me. The way spin the bottle
Jahvie Valentines DayI can't believe I'm doing this for him. But the truth is I love the way he smiles, the way he laughs, the way his eyes sparkle when looking at me, the way his sweaty body glistens in the sunlight and so much more. I sound like a love sick puppy because I am. Only for him.Here I am getting him flowers, box of chocolates, and a card for Valentines day. I don't even know whether or not he likes me back. All of his past relationships failed. He's afraid to love in fear of getting another broken heart. But I'd never let that happen to him. He means the world to me."Jayy! I'm home." I yelled as soon as I came through the front door. I went up to his bedroom noticing it was closed. I put my ear up to it and heard crying."Why do I have to mess up every relationship? I'm fat and ugly. I can't sing worth shit." I walked back downstairs to the door and slammed it closed. Jayy came down a few seconds later and came up to hu
Innocent High Story (chap 1)Dahvie POVI woke up to my alarm clock ringing. Today's the first day of my senior year of high school. I got up and went to take a shower. After I finished my shower I walked to my vanity mirror and started to brush my hair. After I brushed it I picked up my blow dryer and dried it. After I finished that I teased my hair and put on some eye shadow and eyeliner. I went to my dresser and picked out a rainbow tie dye shirt and black pants. I went back to my mirror and looked over my outfit. I nodded my head as approval. I looked at the clock and saw that it was six forty five. School starts at seven thirty so I should get going because it takes twenty minutes to get there. I ran down stairs and grabbed a pop tart and my book bag."Bye mom!" I yelled as I ran outside. I heard her yell back to me to have a good day. I pulled out my pop tart and started to eat it. Mmmm double chocolate. I was walking on the side walk when I heard someone yell for me. I stopped and turned around to face them
Love struck"JAYY!" Dahvie sobbed as a man pinned him to the wall kneeing him in the rib."Shut up faggot!" the man yelled punching Dahvie in the face."JAYYYYYY!" Dahvie screamed as he got punched in the stomach."SHUP UP OR I WILL KILL YOU! GOT IT?" the man threatened.Dahvie whimpered as a response before being punched in the chest letting out another loud cry. Dahvie bit his tongue trying to stop him for calling for help so hard he cut his tongue. The man punched Dahvie square in the face giving him a blood nose. "HELP ME!" Dahvie cried out."LITTLE FUCKER!" the man yelled going to punch him in the face.But before the man's fist connected with Dahvie's face someone grabbed his fist and spun him around slamming him onto the ground. "Dahvie...Dahvie.....DAHVIE are you okay?!?!" Jayy asked kneeling in front of Dahvie since Dahvie had slid down the wall when the man lost his pressure on him. Dahvie looked up at Jayy with blood dribbling down his chin. "Jayy...." Dahvie said croakily from screamin
It All Started With A Bet - DahviexJayy"You lost the bet Jayy you have to do it." I urge, nudging him."But I don't want to." he whines."Too bad."I stare at Jayy as he dances around the kitchen, eating Twizzlers, in a pair of booty shorts we plan on adding to the merch store.As he does some belly dancing move, I feel my jeans begin to grow tighter.Shit shit shit shit shit! I think frantically. He looks over at me taking a bite of another Twizzler, then his eyes trail down my body to my lap. I feel my face flush red as he smirks and walks over to me."Well well well, what do we have here?" he asks in a tone of voice that makes me get even harder.He's just so fucking sexy.His hand brushes over my crotch, and I suck in a breath, a shudder going through my body."Jesus boy." he growls, and I instantly know he's nearly as turned on as I am, "You're hard as a rock."I swallow my nerves and look at him, our heights even for once since I'm sitting on the counter. "Why don't you help me with that little problem t
A Very Vanity Christmas"JAYY JAYY WAKE UP IT'S CHRISTMAS!"Usually, I would be extremely annoyed if Dahvie woke me up at, I quickly checked the clock and internally groaned, 5 a.m., but there was something about how cute he was about Christmas. He seemed much more excited this year than he had been the last. I forced myself out of bed, then ventured downstairs.Dahvie was already sitting by the tree, bouncing up and down excitedly. I grinned and shoved the much too vivid image of him doing those same movement somewhere else. Stop thinking like that Jayy. I scolded myself as i sat across from him. After a while, all the gifts had been opened. I suggested that we start breakfast, but he denied, claiming he had another gift for me. He quickly ran upstairs, and I smiled fondly after him, getting to my feet."Close your eyes!" Dahvie yelled down the stairs, and I obeyed. There was a moment of silence, probably from him checking to see if I was cooperating for once, then I heard his eager footsteps run down
Jahvie Fan Fiction (BxB)Dahvie~ I sat on the couch playing with my phone. I was waiting for Jayy to finish getting ready. We're still on our tour bus. "Dahv! Can you get my flat iron?", asked Jayy. I got up and made my way to his room and got his flat iron. I went to the bathroom and gave it to Jayy. "Thanks, dude!", he said. "Hey, you two! You have a show to get to! Let's go!", said Sally, our merch girl and friend. Jayy grabbed my hand and dragged me out of the bus. We walked through the side entrance, and onto the stage. The crowd went wild. We performed our songs, as usual. Now, it was time. I get to kiss Jayy! The thing is, Jayy only thinks of me as a brother. These kisses are only stage kisses. They mean nothing to him. Jayy pressed his lips against mine. I wrapped my arms around his waist and kissed him back. We smiled at each other and continued singing. After our show, we went back to our bus. Jayy was in the shower and I was fixing our beds. I lyed down on mine staring up at the ceiling.
Forbidden Chapter Two~Saturday morning~I decided to wake up early to tidy up my room a bit before Dahvie came over. And I won't lie, another part of getting up early was to make sure I looked my best, without looking like I tried to hard. I guess you could say I had a tiny crush on Dahvie. Though nothing much yet, I mean, I only met him two days ago.Yesterday, we finished the majority of our project in class. Unlike everyone else in the class, we didn't have much to talk about other than a few topics that quickly diminished from both of us being incredibly shy. I'm not as shy as him, however, but I could still feel the awkward tension in the air. It didn't help that I was trying my hardest not to mess anything up, or say anything wrong.Currently, it was 11:30 in the morning. Dahvie is supposed to show up around 3pm. This gives me plenty of time to get ready. I hopped in the shower, slowly scrubbing my body in the almost too hot water. I've always loved showers, they're just so relaxing, and I can get a

Citizens Bank Park, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
W: J. Papelbon (2-2)
L: J. McGee (2-2)
PHILADELPHIA -- Jim Thome knows the routine: Hit a game-ending homer, circle the bases, get mobbed by teammates.It never gets old.Thome hit a pinch home run leading off the bottom of the ninth inning to lift the Philadelphia Phillies over the Tampa Bay Rays 7-6 on Saturday after Jonathan Papelbon blew his first save in 18 chances this season.Thome connected off Jake McGee (2-2) for home run No. 609, tying Sammy Sosa for seventh place on baseball's career list. It was the 13th time he did it to end a game.
"You never forget them," Thome said. "These are moments you never know how long you'll have them."Juan Pierre and Jimmy Rollins also homered for the Phillies, helping manager Charlie Manuel earn his 900th career win."To do that for him, it was special for sure," said Thome, who is very close to Manuel.In the first meeting at Citizens Bank Park between this teams since Philadelphia won the 2008 World Series, the Phillies rallied from a 3-0 deficit against James Shields with homers from their Nos. 1-2 hitters. But Papelbon couldn't hold the lead.Thome then came through to lead the five-time defending NL East champions out of last place for the first time since May 4. He hit a high drive to left field, jogged around the bases to a rousing ovation and got a cream pie in the face from Shane Victorino afterward on the field."That felt great," Thome said. "They put whipped cream instead of shaving cream so that was nice."Tampa Bay's Jeff Keppinger was 5 for 5 with three RBIs in his first game after he missed 29 because of a broken toe.Papelbon (2-2) allowed his first earned runs in a save situation this season. He walked Jose Lobaton with two outs to extend the game. Keppinger followed with an RBI single. Then, Brooks Conrad ripped a run-scoring single to right to tie it. Conrad was 3 for 41 before that hit."I've got to do a better job," Papelbon said.Papelbon said he told Thome in the on-deck circle that he would give him $5,000 if he hit a homer. Papelbon said he wrote the check in the clubhouse."That was a huge pickup by Jim Thome," Papelbon said. "I couldn't be happier for anybody in the clubhouse."Shields, who beat the Phillies in Game 2 of the `08 Series for Tampa Bay's only win, allowed five runs and seven hits in five innings. Since starting 5-0, Shields is 2-4 with a 4.69 ERA.Tampa Bay has lost three straight."Tip your hat to Thome. He hit a 96 mph fastball off a left-hander and they beat us," Rays manager Joe Maddon said.The 41-year-old Thome was 0 for 12 as a pinch-hitter before his at-bat. He batted .333 with four homers and 14 RBIs in nine games as a designated hitter during interleague play earlier this month.Shields fanned the first two batters in the fourth before getting in trouble. Pinch-hitter Mike Fontenot and Rollins hit consecutive singles. That brought up Pierre, who hadn't gone deep in 366 at-bats, dating to Aug. 16 with the Chicago White Sox. Pierre lined career homer No. 17 over the right-field fence, and strutted down the line with a finger pointed in the air.Pierre reached on a two-base error, hustling his way to second base in the seventh. Carlos Ruiz looped an RBI single to right off Brandon Gomes to make it 6-3.The Rays loaded the bases with no outs in the eighth against Antonio Bastardo, but only got one run on an RBI single by Sean Rodriguez.Kendrick got Philadelphia started in the third with a leadoff walk. Rollins followed with a drive that hooked inside the right-field foul line to cut the deficit to 3-2. The Phillies had runners on first and third with one out, but couldn't push across the tying run. Ty Wigginton struck out and Placido Polanco flied out.Kendrick allowed three runs and six hits in four innings, striking out six. He is 1-3 with a 7.36 ERA in five starts since shutting out St. Louis on May 26.Kendrick retired the first four batters before unraveling with one out in the second. He allowed a single to Ben Zobrist and walked Lobaton. Keppinger followed with a two-run double down the left-field line. He advanced to third on a throwing error by second baseman Michael Martinez and scored on Shields' groundout for a 3-0 Rays lead.

David R. Nicholas* -- 2009 Outstanding Alumnus
Juris Doctorate degree in 1966
Described as a Renaissance man, David R. Nicholas earned his Juris Doctorate degree in 1966.
While practicing law in Laramie, Nicholas served the university in a variety of capacities: teacher for a variety of courses, advisor, and advocate. Nicholas was on several UW boards, including the College of Arts and Sciences Board of Visitors. One of the founding members of the International Board of Advisors, Nicholas was a dedicated member who worked to provide support and raise funds for international programs at UW. He later received the board's annual award for outstanding achievement in the international arena.
Nicholas served in Brussels as the Department of Defense's Advisor to the U.S. Mission to NATO. When he left NATO in 1993, Nicholas began collaborations with UW and Saratov State University in Russia, the Saratov Provincial and City governments, and Rotary International 5440 of Wyoming and Northern Colorado. Nicholas later established a Rotary Club in Saratov.
In 2002, Nicholas accepted a position with the Department of State and became a representative to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, stationed in Vienna, before becoming the OSCE Ambassador to Ukraine.
Nicholas died in 2005 while in Ukraine. His wife, Karen, comments, "Although the pursuit of democracy and rule of law were vitally important to Dave, I think if he were here and asked to list his accomplishments, he would emphasize his work for UW when he was in the Wyoming State Senate in the 1980s."
*In loving memory.

According to a clause in our contract with the municipality, we must submit the monthly report within 7 days after the end of the month. Therefore, we require the garbage collection monthly report to be submitted in two ways (hard copy & soft copy) every month, sorted by areas under xxx Co. (Airport , Azizia & Briman)
Another point I want to make is that I have seen your garbage collection weekly report, but there is nothing mentioned about the kinds of garbage, which is also a requirement of the municipality.
I hope you will take the necessary steps to solve the above-mentioned points.

The world is an amazing place, yours for the taking. Open it, explore it, and make your mark. At Contiki we live by one travel rule: make every moment count.
So how do we make this happen? With eclectic experiences, delicious local food, incredible accommodations, and unbeatable value, coupled with our exclusive Backstage Pass to the best attractions, and our awesome team. Your trip with Contiki will be the experience of a lifetime.See all Europe trips
Some people call Europe a rite of passage. At Contiki, we call it an adventure.
Wake up to green rolling pastures of the Alps, fall asleep to the sound of the ocean in Croatia, see Paris from the top of the Eiffel Tower, or take a freewheeling bike ride along the canals of Amsterdam.
There's no other continent on Earth that combines such a heady mix of culture, history, creativity and sheer awesomeness. Europe is what life is all about: discovery. It's time to start your own adventure.
When you travel Europe, you want to do it right. You want special treatment and exclusive access that turns a regular trip into the trip of a lifetime. That's why Contiki gives you a Backstage Pass to Europe with every trip. It's a combination of all the things below, many exclusive to us, that come together to make your trip like no other. Best of all, it's free and comes included as part of every Contiki trip.
A trip with Contiki is all about those once-in-a-lifetime experiences, and our exclusive accommodations offers just that. We either own or have exclusive agreements in place with stunning properties throughout Europe, like the 16th century Château de Cruix in the south of France, a beautiful beachside resort on the Greek Islands and a magnificent Gasthof in the Austrian Alps. (A Gasthof is a German-style tavern by the way!) All included (at no extra cost) as part of your Backstage Pass.
After 50 years traveling the continent, no other company can give you better access to Europe. The blockbusters are all included as part of your trip (& we help you skip the lines too!). Better yet, we also get you to the parts of Europe that only a local friend in the know can show you. There are exclusives like our "Paris by Night" and "Special Access Rome" tours. Plus, we'll get you around in style and make sure you keep in touch, with WiFi available on our coaches, and for free at most of the places we stay. Our exclusive inclusions ensure your European experience is transformed from ordinary to extraordinary, at no additional cost to you.
Available on the European Highlights
Available on the Mediterranean Highlights
Available on the European Spirit
We have over 400 team members across Europe that are all passionate travelers whose sole focus is making your trip the time of your life. They live and breathe "local Europe", so if you want to get off the beaten path they can give you the inside word on what to do and where to go. Want to find the best shopping in Florence or the best pint of ale in London? Just ask!
Having the freedom to explore is an important part of traveling, so we make sure you have lots of free time to discover and create your own adventure. We call it ME Time because it's all about you choosing your own path. If you want to really dial up the experience, we offer a bunch of exclusive ME Time optionals (all organized by us) that you can pay for on tour. Whether you're an adrenaline junkie who's after bungee jumping in the Swiss Alps or a classical music buff who wants to catch a Mozart concert in Vienna, we'll provide you with something extra special.
Available on the European Experience
Available on the European Horizon
Available on the Ultimate European
Foodies, listen up. We pride ourselves on including meals that feature the very best in regional cuisine (think traditional goulash in Budapest or local Catalan cuisine in Barcelona). Not to mention, we also have live-in chefs in our exclusive accommodations and On-Road Cooks who make nothing but the freshest, most authentic meals for you. Feeling brave? Head on down to a local market with one of our cooks and get bartering!
Going on this tour was the best decision I've ever made. It majorly exceeded my expectations. I got so close to everyone in the two weeks, and our tour guide and driver (Alex and Antonio) were awesome!!
All of the optional activities were tons of fun, and I'd recommend doing all of them. We saw so much more than I would've ever been able to by myself. Favorite place was definitely Munich, along with the amazing bike tour! Definitely do this tour - it's so worth it and you'll create memories that will last you a lifetime.
Tour: European Discovery
Contiki's Ultimate European was the most exciting experience of my life. Not only did I experience so many cultures in the amount of time we had, but I made friends that I will have for a lifetime.
This trip was worth all of my money and I recommend it to anyone wanting to travel Europe.
Tour: Ultimate European in Greek Islands
Europe with Contiki is one of the easiest and most enjoyable travel experiences of my life (and I travel quite a lot). The exclusive Contiki team members really go above and beyond to ensure that your stay is one to remember. They cook, clean and party with you. (They even clean up after the party :P ) It's just the little things that really make such a memorable first time Europe trip that much better.
Not to mention having your own tour guide that's always there for you. Best of all, your bus mates and soon to be worldwide best friends. P.S. Make sure you do the Swiss Alps!
Nadine Sykora (HeyNadine.com)
Tour: European Adventurer
Whether you want to discover a lot of Europe, with trips that visit multiple countries in a short amount of time, or explore Europe in-depth, with more time in each country for you to get to know the regions you visit, Contiki has you covered. Plus, with your Backstage Pass included as standard, you can be sure you're getting real value for your money. Whether you're looking to book your first big trip away from home, or if you're a seasoned traveler, we have the trip for you. So, the only question that remains is - where to go next?

The Last Windrow: The lowly corn cob
Back in 1998 I wrote a column that actually won a "Best Columnist" award from the Minnesota Newspaper Association. Although I never have written this column to win anything, it is always nice to know that at least someone found my writing to be worth reading.
The following column was written in reverence to the lowly corn cob. A piece of the past.
"God Loved The Lowly Corn Cob"

Golub Capital BDC Inc. Stock Upgraded (GBDC)
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass.
- The revenue growth greatly exceeded the industry average of 8.1%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 48.8%. This growth in revenue appears to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, improving the earnings per share.
- The stock has risen over the past year as investors have generally rewarded the company for its earnings growth and other positive factors like the ones we have cited in this report. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, it goes without saying that even the best stocks can fall in an overall down market. However, in any other environment, this stock still has good upside potential despite the fact that it has already risen in the past year.
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Capital Markets industry. The net income increased by 50.5% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $6.19 million to $9.32 million.
- Net operating cash flow has increased to -$72.53 million or 24.88% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, GOLUB CAPITAL BDC INC has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of -80.99%.
- The gross profit margin for GOLUB CAPITAL BDC INC is rather high; currently it is at 67.20%. Regardless of GBDC's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, GBDC's net profit margin of 50.82% significantly outperformed against the industry.

The Cook County prosecutor accused of biting a man outside a lingerie shop while drunk now faces more charges related to the incident.
Sarah Naughton is now charged with nine misdemeanor counts, including battery, resisting an officer, attempted official misconduct, trespassing, assault and disorderly conduct.
Cell phone video of Naughton shouting and swearing at officers went viral after the alleged incident back in September.

What Matters Most
Evidence Matters
NY Times, April 23, 2011
Among the many theories that have been applied to public education is the notion that business practices—and even business leaders themselves—will improve education outcomes. This idea has been used to rationalize any number of things, from a heavy emphasis on standardized testing and the use of such tests to evaluate and compensate teachers; to privatization (whether through charter schools, vouchers and virtual education or through outsourcing public functions to private operators); to "dealing" with struggling schools by firing staff or shutting down the schools altogether, and even referring to the students educated in our public schools as "products."
These concepts may work in industry, but they have been proven ineffective in the realm of public schooling. This was made clear in Education and the Cult of Efficiency, Raymond Callahan's seminal account of efforts early in the 20th century to treat public education like a business. Callahan's deconstruction of these failed theories has informed policy discussions since it was first published in the 1960s. Yet market-based education "reformers" continue to promote such approaches—evidence be damned. But in education, as in other important endeavors, evidence matters.
Teaching children is as much an art as a science—and more complex than a formulaic corporate stratagem. Unlike businesses, public schools don't have a niche market they can target to enhance their balance sheets. We rightly embrace all children.
There is abundant evidence of effective education strategies that can and should be replicated. We can learn much from the many U.S. public schools and districts that are helping students achieve at high levels, as well as from the high-performing countries that spark so much competitive interest among American policymakers and pundits yet whose lessons about improving teaching and learning so often are ignored.
Frontline educators understand the wisdom of what underlies the success in these countries—their systemic emphasis on quality, equity, shared responsibility and collaboration.
The countries that consistently top the international rankings—Finland, Singapore and South Korea—emphasize teacher preparation, mentoring and collaboration. They provide ongoing professional development for teachers and de-emphasize standardized tests, and each has a well-rounded curriculum that teachers can tailor to meet the needs of individual students. These countries provide a more equitable education for all students, and they offset the effects of poverty through wraparound services (healthcare, afterschool programs and the like) that support students and their families. Teachers in these countries are esteemed, and they're virtually 100 percent unionized.
You don't have to look past our borders to find schools where teaching and learning reach great heights. I recently visited Clarence R. Edwards Middle School in Boston, a school that just a few years ago was slated to be closed after years of lagging performance, and today is one of the most impressive schools I have ever seen.
The changes at Edwards Middle School include a longer school day, which allows for tutoring and a host of electives, such as music, drama and art. The school has a culture of shared leadership and accountability. The AFT recently proudly awarded teachers at the school a grant from the AFT Innovation Fund to develop high-quality lesson plans tied to the Common Core standards. Changes at the school have resulted in greatly improved student outcomes. Now, this middle school that was about to close has a waiting list of students who want to attend.
I often think of the excellent schools I have visited that are using best practices to help students reach their potential and wonder how we can shine a spotlight on them. And I worry that ineffective so-called reforms based on ideology, not results, will continue to gain a foothold.
Innovation is an American value. But when our focus is our young people's lives, experimentation and ideology at a certain point must give way to evidence and results. The United States has seen the shortcomings of market ideologies in many areas. And the evidence shows that using these approaches in public education won't get us where we need to go.

|#showusyournumber 2013 is coming!
I say celebration because that's exactly what is. Your personal best gross score whether 124 or 65 is a celebration of your golf game. You own that number, it's your benchmark. Your number should inspire you and push you on to continually improve your golfing skills.
Last year we had a phenomenal response, with thousands of golfers from all around the world changing their social media profile pictures to show their numbers. We had participation from professional golfers on the PGA Tour, European and LPGA Tours. To read more about last years event including how it all began, please check out this post.
It's no coincidence that The Open Championship takes place during the 3 weeks of #showusyournumber 2013. Wouldn't it be fantastic if we could get some golfers particpating in the Open to show their number? We've already had a tweet from Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño who's indicated that he will get involved when the fun starts.
We'll provide updates during the three weeks of #showusyournumber 2013 in the form of tweets from our @showusyournumbr account, website, Facebook page and on this blog of course.
All that remains is for you to change your profile pictures on Monday July 8th to show your number! More details are available in the graphic below (click to enlarge), but if you have any questions please feel to get in touch: info(at)ibleedgolf(dot)com

Hiring an intern through the Governor's Internship Program can be an extremely rewarding experience for private businesses, non-profit organizations, and government agencies. Providing internship opportunities allows these entities to contribute to the West Virginia community in a very positive manner. Employees who serve as mentors to interns often find this to be a very satisfying role.
In addition, interns can be short-term solutions, meeting needs for extra assistance by an employer. For example, the West Virginia State Police hires graduate students majoring in forensic science to intern in its Forensics Laboratory each summer, providing these students with invaluable experience and gaining much needed assistance in the lab.
Employers should also consider interns as possible future employees for entry-level positions. At the close of the 2002 Governor's Internship Program, participating mentors were surveyed to gauge their satisfaction with the program. One respondent commented on his survey, "One of the interns performed so well that she was offered full-time employment by this agency. This was her second year as a Governor's Intern and her high performance level both years justified the employment offer."
For a private business, non-profit organization or government agency to fully appreciate the impact of the Governor's Internship Program, some planning is required. The following elements are essential when considering whether to host an intern:
The availability of meaningful projects or assignments.
Students want to be challenged. The days of using interns as "go-fers" and temporary clerical assistance are gone. Projects should be planned in advance and designed in a manner that allows the intern to gain enhanced appreciation of the importance of teamwork, organizational culture, communication and organization skills, as well as the rewards and frustrations of working.
The availability of staff support.
Each intern should be assigned at least one mentor who is responsible for effectively supervising the intern. Supervising an intern can include training the intern, assigning projects, monitoring workload, answering questions, providing other necessary information and evaluating the intern's performance by providing constructive feedback to the intern.
The availability of office space and financial resources.
To be effective, an intern needs to have access to the same resources as other employees. Typically, this includes a desk/work station, a computer (including an email account) and a telephone. These resources may vary depending on the type of projects an intern will be assigned. The Governor's Internship Program serves the function of recruiting students to participate in the program and recruiting agencies, businesses and organizations to host interns. Compensation of the intern is the responsibility of the agency, business or organization hosting the intern. Internships generally last nine to thirteen weeks and pay at least minimum wage.
Employers will have the responsibility of interviewing and selecting the intern which best fits the requirements of the position. You will be assigned a password which will allow you to query the online student database to select candidates to interview who have the educational and/or experience you require. Students will be required to submit two letters of recommendation and a copy of their transcripts when reporting to an interview.
While employers are free to employ any student for summer employment, only students who can verify that they have a 3.0 GPA and have presented 2 letters of recommendation may participate in the Governor's Internship Program.
Employers should, to the extent practical, verify student eligibility prior to extending an offer to hire.
Please follow these steps to apply as a host for the WV Governor's Internship Program:
Fill out an application .
Once your application has been accepted, create a WV.gov account to gain access to the online student database.
Once you have activated your account, please send your WV.gov account username to Mary Jane Ayoob at email@example.com to have your access completed.

MADISON, WI (LEARFIELD-WSAU)A Polynesian running back from Salt Lake City has given his verbal commitment to play for the Wisconsin football team just over a year from now.
Ula Tolutau is the sixth known commitment in the Badgers' Class of 2014. The 6-1, 230-pound Tolutau also had scholarship offers from Utah, Utah State, B-Y-U, and Hawaii.
He was reportedly recruited by Wisconsin's new defensive line coach, Chad Kauha'aha'a (cow-ha-a-ha-a). He said last winter that he was successful recruiting Polynesian players at Utah, where he coached before joining Gary Andersen's staff in Madison.
