We are committed to pursuing world-class research and providing outstanding teaching. Our classes are taught by academics who share a commitment to the success of each student. Our aim is to help you prepare for leadership in your chosen profession, developing the knowledge, skills and experience to become an exceptional graduate.
The Geography undergraduate programme is one of the larger ones among the UK's Russell Group of universities, graduating 130 students each year. Our degree programme combines study traditions of past and present environments, in both their cultural and physical dimensions. Geography is one of the few subjects in which human and physical aspects of the environment are integrated. At Queen's we have developed a programme that provides students with a common foundation of knowledge, skills and experience, while offering the opportunity to tailor your degree according to your interests and ambitions.
Our teaching is informed by the research of our academic staff, many of whom are international leaders in their area of scholarship. This is illustrated in the profile of our research clusters:
Environmental Change Research Cluster
The principal concern of this cluster is to understand how physical environments have changed, or are changing, over a range of different time scales from 20k years to the near instantaneous. There are strong bio-ecological and geomorphological traditions in our research, which are combined in both Late-Quaternary and Holocene studies as well as in contemporary and future considerations.
Society, Space and Culture Research Cluster
This research cluster focuses on historical and contemporary human geography. In order to advance its agenda, the cluster has developed a series of themes on the relationships between human society, spatiality and culture to which its members in various combinations contribute and which provide a focus their research endeavours. These include: temporal GIS; knowledge, space and the cultures of science; spatial analysis of contemporary society; historical geographies of past economies and landscapes; and geography, empire and colonialism.

Ugh, the two floor problem. I assume that because this is a battle map it must be a top down view? If the maps are being made for print, then one solution would be to have your main battle map with the ground floor of the gate house, and then have smaller 'inserts' of the first floor and the roof which can be put on top of the gatehouse. (see image).
If it's for playing on VTT then the only solution I can see (and I'm not a VTT expert) is to have the first floor and ground floor of the gatehouse as separate rooms, so that if the characters move into either, that is what they see. Don't know what you'd do if some of the characters were on the first floor, some on the ground floor and some in the courtyard though.
On the portcullis thing there's a recent long thread about it somewhere in either General discussion or the buildings subforums.

I love the fact that you include "starter recipes" for people like my daughter, who is now really learning to cook by herself. Young, just-out-of-school kids can really benefit from having these types of recipes. However, this one left out the most important thing -- TASTE/FLAVOR!? Why no mention of onions, garlic, etc.? This recipe, if made as stated, would be totally without taste.
Easy Black-Eyed Peas

This sounds good with the onion and kielbasa.

Family loved this... first black eyed pea recipe that they have ever liked. Thanks! Will be a traditional New Years Day dish.
elbrant Posted: 12/31/12
I have to agree with Kristy1101, but I think the issue is the process of dumping it all together and boiling it. Really? Who would want to eat that? Yuck! If that's how you're going to cook, just buy canned. Now. if the recipe instructed us to: saute the onions and Kielbasa in 2 T butter, season with crumbled bouillon cubes, and cook until the sausage is browned. Then add the the beans and cover with 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer with the lid askew (allowing steam to escape). Check the peas after 1 hour and every 30 minutes afterwards or until the peas are soft. Add additional water, if needed, This process will allow the flavors to blend and mature and the Black Eyed Peas will be amazing. You decide. Yuck peas or awesome peas?

NORTON, Mass. Phil Mickelson watched a no-hitter Saturday night at Fenway Park, a magical show of baseball history.
On Monday, he competed in a nearly perfect game at the Deutsche Bank Championship at TPC Boston, a magical show of potential golf history. The FedEx Cup playoffs have some flaws, but a scintillating final-round duel between Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson cures just about anything.
Mickelson shot a five-under-par 66 to finish at 16 under and knock the king of golf off his perch, at least temporarily. He finished two shots ahead of Woods, Brett Wetterich and Arron Oberholser to take the lead in the FedEx Cup points race for the $10 million deferred annuity. Last week's winner, Steve Stricker, fell to second in the FedEx standings, and Woods is third.
It's been a long time since Boston witnessed a tee party like this. With apologies to Zach Johnson, Angel Cabrera, Padraig Harrington and every other winner this year, Labor Day at the Deutsche Bank Championship blew them all away. This was golf's finest hour in 2007.
We've waited years for a Tiger vs. Phil rivalry to really blossom, or at least take center stage. Monday, those dreams came true. As they used to say in the beer commercials, it doesn't get any better than this.
If this FedEx Cup gimmick eventually gains traction, and after this day it seems like it probably will, golf historians will point to this round. It wasn't quite a Duel in the Sun like Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson had at Turnberry in 1977, but it'll do. Then again, if the FedEx Cup dies on the vine, historians may point to this day, too.
At the award ceremony on the 18th green, Mickelson hinted that he may not play the third leg of the FedEx Cup series this week at Cog Hill. He didn't blame fatigue, like Woods did before he skipped The Barclays, but he mentioned requests he'd made that were not fullfilled by PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem. He did not elaborate.
Later, Mickelson said he wanted to be home when his daughters started school next week. He said he hadn't made a decision on whether to play the BMW Championship but that he was going to Chicago to fulfill a corporate outing Tuesday. Mickelson added that he would play the Tour Championship in Atlanta even if he skipped the BMW.
His comments cast a cloud over an otherwise remarkable day in the FedEx Cup playoffs, a day when Mickelson and Woods may have officially established a real rivalry. Woods made a charge with birdies on three of the last five holes, but Mickelson answered, making birdies on two of the last three to hold him off.
One precise moment may have made the difference. Woods had just holed a monster 40-foot birdie putt at the 14th hole to cut Mickelson's lead to two shots. At the 16th, a par-3 guarded by a pond, Woods stuck his 8-iron shot to 10 feet and earned a roar that might have awakened even Paul Revere. Then Mickelson stepped up and carved his 8-iron to six feet, topping Woods. The next roar was probably heard at FedEx headquarters in Memphis.
A shot like that could be a career-turner, but Mickelson's career is already firmly established. It was his 32nd career victory, and his first since winning the Players in May. "To step up on 16 and knock it inside of him felt terrific," Mickelson said. "The next step is to try to go head-to-head in a major. Hopefully we'll have a chance to do that next year."
The secret to a successful tournament is clearly to have Woods and Mickelson playing together, and in contention. Monday, they were paired in the next-to-last group behind Brett Wetterich and Arron Oberholser. The final duo served as an afterthought to the Woods-Mickelson showdown, but give them credit. In the end, Wetterich and Oberholser tied for second with Woods at 14 under par. Oberholser was the last man with a chance to catch Mickelson, but his chip for eagle on No. 18 came up short.

Did Steven Moffat Admit to The Eleven Doctors?
What do you really want for the Doctor Who 50th anniversary? Is it fun, excitement, the conclusion of a massive arc… or is it the satisfaction of seeing The Eleven Doctors, reunited as they should be?
We're not sure either. Or we weren't, until we learned this morning that Steven Moffat had tacitly admitted that a character crash of Time Lords was exactly what he had been writing…
Getting the other Doctors involved would be very fitting for the anniversary episode, wouldn't it?
We've heard from Doctor Who Online that Steven Moffat did indeed say those words at the BBC Drama Commissions event this week.
Reported in the Mirror, all surviving Doctors are believed to have agreed to take part in the anniversary special. We know that Colin Baker has denied involvement, but that was several weeks ago now – things might well have changed.
There are also suggestions that older Doctors – and those sadly no longer with us – will be represented using archive footage and CGI. Given that the production is being made in 3D and that mixing old footage with new can be done on a laptop with reasonable results, it's fair to assume that this rumour can become a reality.
What do you think? Is this really an admission, or Steven Moffat subterfuge?
9 Responses to Did Steven Moffat Admit to The Eleven Doctors?
It wouldn't really surprise me as it's what I guessed a while back, plus—-it's really the only way TO do it, so fingers crossed! Further, past Doctors keep saying they haven't heard a thing or been talked to. I think they're lying through their teeth and having a ball doing it. I'll bet there'll be some voice over work done to be thrown into the proceedings when the 11th Doctor speaks with his past selves.
Although the Moff certainly has a history of subterfuge and general teasery I don't think he would be cruel enough to drop a hint like this if it weren't true. I think we've got a great opportunity here to bring the 11 together. If Tron:Legacy can give us a 25 year old Jeff Bridges then I think the beeb can give us appropriately aged previous Doctors. As far as the first three Doctors are concerned we already have David Bradley playing Hartnell in a production this year, so why not take advantage of it? Jon Pertwee's son Sean could pass as his father with minimal makeup and Patrick Troughton could be played by his son David (with appropriate make-up). The voices could be manipulated digitally as well. I would love to see this as it would not only give us the 11 Doctor story we all crave but would give a nice family feel to the proceedings. It all comes down to whether or not tue BBC is willing to fund the extra CGI…
Asking men to take the places of their late fathers sounds pretty crass to me…
Hmmm…not really sure how that would be "crass." David Troughton and Sean Pertwee have both said in the past that they're proud of their respective fathers and their involvement in Who. I think it could be a wonderful way to celebrate the legacy. Anyway no one would be forcing them. They could just say "no, I don't think that's appropriate." I don't find anything disrespectful or below board in the idea at all. I don't expect it would happen, but I doubt that either Troughton or Pertwee would find it in poor taste to be asked.
I don't think family stepping up to portray their father's roles is at all crass. It's done with respect and keeping it in the family. I *would* say that physically, it might be a little odd considering Sean Pertwee is rather on the short side and David Troughton is rather on the tall side. However, David has performed as the 2nd Doctor on some audio adventures and others have taken the parts of the 1st and 3rd Doctors as well. The guy from Dead Ringers, in addition to doing a great Tom Baker, does a great Pertwee as well. I see all these guys doing voice overs to see the scenes through.
While I have my own views towards how the 50th Anniversary should be, I think what I can agree on when discussing it with First/Second Doctor fans is we really don't want the BBC to get actors to play those roles!
It's been expressed several times over the few months, but still we seem to be in a position where a small majority want people to assume their characters, since the original actors are dead and have been for years. It's unforgivable, and fans have made it quite clear they don't want a First Doctor reboot, so why should they be forced into having this?
It would be great. But the article in the Mirror says that the special will be Matt Smiths final story.
You can read the article in the link below. After reading it I decided to tweet Doctor 5-8. I wonder if they will reply lol.
At Gally, Nick Briggs said that the multidoctor story is Big Finish's "Light at the End" and some reporter mixed it up, saying "Light at the End" was to be written by Steven Moffat (it isn't) and it was to be televised (it isn't). He has spoken directly with Steven and made it known it wasn't him. So I don't the reality of anything, just what was said.
And Moffat said there will be more than just one special, and there will be a Christmas special this year in a video shown at Gally's year end media review.

Minnesota Hwy. 36 is set for an overhaul in an effort to improve safety and traffic flow in the area. The project will begin Monday, March 18 and is expected to come to a close by mid-November.
Ultimately, three intersections will be included in the revamp: The Hilton Trail, Highlands Trail and Demontreville Trail.
The entire project takes place between 694 and just east of Demontreville Trail North in Lake Elmo, Pine Springs and Grant. Workers will replace the Hwy. 36/Hilton Trail signalized intersection resulting in a closing of the media crossing at the Highlands Trail intersection. The north frontage road (60th St.) will be extended over the Gateway Trail.
The Demontreville Trail intersection will have reduced turn options.
The Minnesota Department of Transportation website says the project was prompted by concern for the safety of motorists on the highway. High-speed T-bone accidents often occur when a stop sign calls for motorists to cross two lanes of highway traffic.
For more information visit the project's website: MN Hwy. 36/Hilton Trail improvement project

When Edgar the Elephant, Wallace the Whale and Bradford the Bird made their grand entrance at the last Fragment event we knew that they were too much funky fun to let go. So with the slick guidance of Pancake Zoo caretaker Shawn Chen, we built a little home for them here at TOKYOMADE.
Shawn and his crew of critters have come to settle in Tokyo after being on tour in Melbourne, Australia. Popular with the street style lovers down under, the Pancake Zoo pieces can be found in independent boutiques in Melbourne and now on TOKYOMADE.
Each piece has been lovingly hand created by Shawn in his bedroom. Cast out of polyurethane with a metal finding attached to the back. Preferring to hang out on clothes, bags, and maybe even hats, they need to go to good homes.
No feeding or watering required.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Blizzard still doesn't provide a pvp system that is compelling to players who really play to PvP -- it has been forever polluted by a system geared for PvE: reward system, honor points, objectives to make PvE more compelling (like exp bonuses and extra spirit shards).
What the zone PvP objectives in WoW:TBC have proven over time is that each zone tends to be overwhelmingly "zerged" by one faction or another, and while a few sporting folks try to participate for the minority side, most folks give up and don't fight -- instead, they wait until later or the next opportunity to clash again.
All this results in are long windows of non-action until one side builds up enough of a majority that they can take everything on the map against little opposition; their goal, of course, is to achieve the PvE rewards.
The objective of world PvP should be to PvP, not to do more PvE. Because they are so intricately linked in all of Blizzard's designs, I'm afraid they will never be able to create a system where people participate because they actually want to do battle. What I'm afraid I see happening with Lake Wintergrasp is "dressing up the pig" by creating cute siege machines.
The core problem will resurface in WotLK, I believe: Lake Wintergrasp, about 3 months after release, will be a continuous zergfest always in favor of one side, then go dormant for a few hours, then turn into a zergfest again. Unless and until they actually allow us to do guild versus guild-type battles, or player-buildable and siege-able assets where guild reputation and player-driven content is on the line, that's the best I can see happening for Lake Wintergrasp.

UNDATED (WKZO) -- You could probably sense that gas prices this low were just too good to be true. A few stations in west Michigan were actually flirting with going under the $3 mark for the first time in years.
All it took was a bump in the wholesale price to increase prices by 30-cents yesterday afternoon at gas stations all over west Michigan.
Patrick DeHaan at Gas Buddy.com says its not the start of a trend, and he expects the prices will go back down again before the Holidays.
And the chances Santa will bring us gas for under $3. He says there are 35-states where there is at least one station selling below $3, but he doubts the national average will ever sink that low.
In the meantime, we will have to put up with this vicious cycle that Great Lakes motorists seem doomed to repeat over and over because there are just too few major retailers selling gas in the region, and DeHaan says they can manipulate prices..

Why has "green consumption" of sustainable products (e.g. Whole Foods, Toyota Prius) not permeated electricity consumption?
While many consumers have embraced sustainable products (eg. Whole Foods, Toyota Prius), that ethos has not yet permeated electricity consumption. Why do you think this is the case? Will it always be like this? Will renewable energy consumption be driven only by government mandates? Why? Or do you think this will change? If the marketplace were fair and rational, there would be no need for subsidies and mandates for the renewables and a proper carbon tax would suffice—as is starting to happen in Europe through cap-and-trade system. What will drive the change to clean energy consumption?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Mar 31 2012: The problem begins with the fact the US has never had an energy policy/plan, as Mr. Picken's points out during his TED talk. America has grown up using oil, natural gas and coal to power its mighty factories, schools, and homes. People were led to believe that coal was going to be the power source for America for years to come due to its abundance in the US. This is no longer the case, as we have learned more about global warming and the effects of greenhouse gases on the weather patterns of our planet. It is going to take a government mandate and subsidies to force power production to move in the direction of cleaner and more sustainable. The idea of a carbon tax is great except it creates a way for companies to still pollute by diverting carbon credits.(For lack of space I cannot elaborate further on the trading of carbon credits)Rather or not this requires cutting all subsidies to dirty power production or not, I'm not here to say, but what I can say with relative confidence is that we no longer have a choice of when we are going to make the change, but how? TED conferences have seen a large amount of ideas on addressing the power issue. It will be the culmination of these ideas that will help us begin to move towards a more sustainable, cleaner future. As part of this move we must take nuclear power seriously, we need to invest in wind and solar, but also tidal, geo-thermal, hydro, ultraviolet energy transfer. The list goes on and on, and we cannot bank on only one or two types of energy production. We will need a vast, smart, integrated grid that is hyper efficient and is capable of meeting the ever growing power demands of society and the solution to those demands is not 2-dimensional but multi-dimensional.
peter lindsay 50+
Apr 8 2012: I have heard about individuals and corporations buying land where the grasses and other vegitation can be used for carbon offsets. Cap and Trade will create a business out of thin-air, increase the cost of land beyond the average person's income, oppress the majority of citizens and help the rich become richer. Therefore isn't it possible that pursuing saving the world is merely a power play?

Before everything else, in the title, anime weaboo = ME.. I will add some of my stories every stage if ever I can relate to it. (I'm kinda ashamed of using the term weaboo. It feels like 2006. I just can't think of a better word.)
Stage 01: "So deep anime introduction stage"
Introduced to any of the following anime: Cowboy Bebop*, Ghost in the Shell*, Neon Genesis Evangelion*, Naruto*, Inu Yasha*, One Piece*. In my case, I was introduced to Death Note.
*Congratulations. You are not a weaboo.
**If you're introduced to the following anime, then you are a big gigantic weaboo.
Stage 02: "Moar anime stage"
More anime shows are introduced to you by a friend or probably while surfing in the internet*. In my case, the first anime was introduced by my friend and the anime after that were introduced to me by the almighty internet.
*Feels bad man. Looks like you're a fat, neck-bearded roneryfag. ;_; (but in my case, i'm just a roneryfag, not fat and neckbearded. True.)
Stage 03: "Joining anime discussions because you're a roneryfag stage"
Join anime forums and stuffs like that. Or even worse.. discussions on streaming sites after streaming and watching your anime in that site.
Stage 04: "Buyfag stage"
Buying anime merchandises and anime figures and shit.. and fapping to them. Or can be even worse.. making a blog about those anime figures and shit! (In my case, I went to that state where I badly wanted to buy one of those anime figures.. especially dat Haruhi one.. but unfortunately, I'm too poor to have one. ;_;)
Stage 05: "J-POP shit stage"
Downloading and listening (and even singing) to anime songs and shitty japanese songs. Just look at this Winamp library for example (NOT MINE! I TELL YA! IT'S NOT MINE!)
Stage 5.1: "lol is dat sum anime skin? stage"
Well now you have a japanese songs-filled Winamp, you need an anime skin of course. So you can browse the internet while listening to some shitty anime songs with an anime skin (probably a Lucky Star skin) winamp. (I remember using a K-ON skin once, I hope I can't find the screenshot of it onlin- http://twitpic.com/e429l FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU-
Stage 06. "The anime blogging stage"
You somehow stumbled in to "THE ANI'BLOGOSPHERE" (I was planning on making an image on Paint that's a representation of the aniblogosphere but I don't know if it's a good idea). I once randomly stumbled upon Kurogane's Blog and that started my career of writing shit on a shitty blog. If I were you, I wouldn't make an anime blog. I'm already telling you this now. Trust me. It's not a good idea.
Stage 07. "Twittaphilia* stage" *(special thanks to IMPZ for that stupid word)
TWITTER. Yes Twitter. Well I'm basing this stages for when I become what I am now. But it's 2010, of course EVERYONE has heard of Twitter probably from there favorite celebrities. If you're reading this now, why not follow me at Twitter? After Twitter, of course there's Facebook. If you didn't went through stage 06, then you're fine. But if you're a blogger and you have a Facebook, then it's bad news.. Especially if you created a fan page for your blog.
Stage 08. "The CHAN stage"
Introduced to chan boards. If you're visiting 4chan, it's bad news. If you're visiting 2chan, it's a much worse news.
Stage 09. "lol i troll u stage"
The "TROLL" Stage. This is probably only applicable to me. But if it is applicable also to you, then CONGRATULATIONS.
Stage 10. "what the shit. MOE EVERYWHERE stage" (I AM CURRENTLY HERE IN THIS STAGE)
The "this is getting boring" stage. You know, after watching some anime every shitty season, it gets a bit tiring since EVERY ANIME IN EVERY SEASON SUCKS. NOTHING BUT MOE. So you have nothing to watch anymore. Especially if you have a precious time and you're always busy.. (like me). You already know what's the next stage right?
Stage 11. "Goodbye anime stage"
STOPPED WATCHING ANIME for several years.. or in my case, 2 or 3 years, I forgot. But I don't know if I can stop watching anime. I have lots of anime to still watch.. especially those CLASSIC ones. But i'm kinda lazy so shit, my life is ruined.
Stage 12. "No more anime blogging stage"
Of course, after not watching anime anymore, you'll probably quit anime blogging. Since I think its impossible to surpass stage 10, I can't quit anime blogging too. I remember once I made this blog, I said to myself that I won't quit no matter what (no matter how shitty my blog is and how low my views get). And I was quite envious of those blogs that lasted for like.. 100 years. (B'AAAAAAWWWWW). And since SOMEONE thinks I'm already a loser even if I don't quit, I still won't quit you motherfcker. (Well I hope I can still blog starting this Monday since it's the start of my college years. And my schedule is shit. No more free time for internet. ;_;)
Stage 13. "The almost-happy-life stage"
You grew a happy man with a happy life. No more ronery life.. having no girlfriend, just watching shitty anime and fapping to your 2D waifu. You already have a wife and a daughter.. WHO YOU NAMED AFTER YOUR FAVORITE ANIME CHARACTER. lol oh wow your life sucks. I thought you already are living a non-weaboo life. WWWWWW
Stage 14. "My life is ruined stage"
Your daughter/son grew up AND BECAME A FREAKIN' OTAKU. Weaboo-er THAN YOU WERE! Oh God. This life is even worse. Then that daughter/son did all the stages 1-14. Then again to your grandchildren and so on………

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I am a bit torn, I come from the days of Vanilla and did indeed complete MC, BWL, AQ, and Naxx 40 and didn't think I was one of the exceptional few. I was also raiding 4 nights a week until 3 am which in hindsight was way too much! These days I raid two nights a week for 3 hours each. The equivalent of going to the movies twice a week. My guild downs the normal mode raids while they are relevant but we struggle on hard modes.
Looking at this number, 1000 guilds... 2 % of raiding guilds... even less than 2% of all players are defeating the current final boss. I cannot think of a console game that would have that low of a completion rate. Or a game company that would be making content for such a small portion of the audience.
Before I digress further, I appreciate beating really hard bosses like this and the fact only 2% of those trying pull it off makes the feat that much more amazing. On the flip side should it really be that small of a number? Well in the end I really don't mind as long as I can experience the same content on a normal mode. Actually thinking of it that way I can appreciate LFR with easy mode to see everything and hard modes for bragging rights.
DragonFireKai said...
What percentage of players do you think beat Halo on Legendary Difficulty?
As a contrary anecdote, I've finished the single player campaign of Halo once, on the lowest setting, and haven't touched the game except at the rare times when I get together with a bunch of friends for multiplayer.
Don't make the mistake that everybody plays the game the same way you do just because everybody you play with does.
DragonFireKai said...
Well, Twill, why doesn't your raid group raid a LOT and get good. Then do Heroic Rag?
Of all my friends who play Halo, only one has actually cleared the campaign on legendary. All the rest of us just beat it on normal or veteran and then youtubed the legendary only cut scenes.

As classes end and real studying begins, it is easy to get stuck in your head. Especially when you've been doing readings all day. Seemingly innocuous boards turn into something much more significant as the layers of meaning come to life and confound through what you learned in Psych 101. After all: Life is the same. We give meaning to life based on our point of view.
The Dark Night holds many mysteries, not least among them the delibility of chalk.

–Jean-Paul Sartre
"The greatest hazard of all, losing one's self, can occur very quietly in the world, as if it were nothing at all. No other loss can occur so quietly; any other loss – an arm, a leg, five dollars, a wife, etc. – is sure to be noticed."

"Bodies are not the same as Coca-Cola cans." -Arthur Caplan
"Accepting the absurdity of everything around us is one step, a necessary experience: it should not become a dead end. It arouses a revolt that can become fruitful."
- Albert Camus
"To declare that existence is absurd is to deny that it can ever be given a meaning; to say that it is ambiguous is to assert that its meaning is never fixed, that it must be constantly won. Absurdity challenges every ethics; it is because man's condition is ambiguous that he seeks, through failure and outrageousness, to save his existence."
- Simone de Beauvoir
"Where is it I've read that someone condemned to death says or think, an hour before his death, that if he had to live on some high rock, on such a narrow ledge that he'd only room to stand, and the ocean, everlasting darkness, everlasting solitude, everlasting tempest around him, if he had to remain standing on a square yard of space all his life, a thousand years, eternity, it were better to live so than to die at once! Only to live, to live and live! Life, whatever it may be!"
-Fyodor Dostoyevsky
"Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced."
-Søren Kierkegaard

Driving by the Silver Sands Bridle Club at 625 Tomoka Farms Road near New Smyrna Beach and Port Orange, you'll see a lot of activity this week as 4H club members prepare for their annual Fall Festival.
This year's event is from 6 to 10 p.m. Friday, Oct. 25, and Saturday, Oct. 26. Many area 4H clubs participate in the popular event, which has grown into a major Halloween happening with fun activities for the whole family.
The 4Hers range in age from 5 to18. Some raise livestock. Some ride horses. Some garden or bake or sew. But they all have one thing in common; they are learning how to live a wholesome life. Standing for head, heart, health and hand, 4H has been around for more than 75 years.
"It educates youth to learn how to live life," said Nora Galbreath, who is the sparkplug behind the fall festival and a "retired" 4H leader. "It teaches etiquette, raising animals, government, becoming better students, sewing, baking, gardening, horticulture, public speaking. It covers a broad perspective. They learn everything."
Right now, they are learning how to work together as a team to prepare for this major event, which raises money to support area 4H clubs and many other groups who help with the event, as well as the Silver Sands college scholarship fund.
The fall festival started in 1995 when Ms. Galbreath decided to put on a community event hosted by her 4H club, the Coronado 4H (now called the Silver Sands 4H Club). It started at the Volusia Feed Store on Samsula Drive in New Smyrna Beach, but the event soon grew too large for the store. Ms. Galbreath asked Silver Sands Bridle Club to donate its facility, and the event has been there ever since. The Silver Sands 4H club is still one of the instrumental clubs in the fall festival, with 4H leader Becky Maloney and her three 4H daughters all active in the event. The event is sponsored by the Silver Sands Bridle Club, with many 4H clubs helping to put on the fall festival event.
"It is Silver Sands' way of giving back to the community," Ms. Galbreath said, and all of the 4H leaders agree.
There is a "haunted hay ride" throughout the wooded area behind the club. The event also includes a haunted house, pony rides, a petting zoo, face painting, little train rides, numerous game booths, food booths, music provided by a DJ and a costume contest. The event has become so popular that the New Smyrna Beach Police Explorers (a youth group) help direct traffic, and a Volusia County deputy has to be hired to keep traffic flowing. But the entire event is run by volunteers, 4Hers and families and friends.
"People can come out and have a great time without it costing an arm and a leg," Ms. Galbreath said.
Admission to the event is free, but there is a charge for the hayride, food, drinks and games.
"It's just a great family event, a place to bring the children," said Danny Graves, president of Silver Sands Bridle Club. "And it's a big 4H fundraiser."
So put on a costume, bring the kids and prepare to have a great time at the Fall Festival this weekend.

This B.C. Lions team that starts the 2012 season may be even better than the Lions team that last year finished the regular season at 11-7 and won the Grey Cup.
I say this in reference to their personnel carried over from last year combined with their newly acquired personnel. Put those two groups together and you have a pretty impressive starting 24.
The majority of the time when a team wins a championship, players move on. One or two retire, and those who have earned free agency use it to their advantage to create a new opportunity for themselves.
It's also rare to repeat as champions because the desire for that winning feeling has been satisfied. Sometimes it's tough to regenerate that same maintained intensity for an 18-game schedule and playoff run.
With this year's Lions, it's a little different, in a good way.
Yes, they lost LB Solomon Elimimian and DE Aaron Hunt. But to great surprise, they kept DL Khalif Mitchell and OT Jovan Olafioye. Losing just two starters to free agency from a Grey Cup Championship team is pretty good.
And yes, some players retired – DL Brent Johnson, DB Davis Sanchez, and RB Jamal Robertson – but as a compliment to those players, the timing was perfect. All three wouldn't have been starters this season; all three went out on top. I can only wish.
Then in the off-season, the Lions improved their roster. Both Lin-J Shell and Byron Parker are risk-taking defensive backs that will enhance the confidence of the entire defence.
So, can the Lions repeat? Will they have enough energy and enthusiasm to pay the price to do it again? Well, first of all, it will be a different team with Mike Benevides as head coach. When the head coach changes, the team changes – trust me on that one, I know from experience.
This will be a new Lions team. Everyone knows the history of Wally Buono, and I thought it was a very classy move on his part to step aside. I am sure Buono would have liked to have the chance to coach in the 100th Grey Cup, especially considering the team he has, but he is giving that opportunity to someone else. It was a pretty unselfish move by Coach Buono in a sport that has strong egos at all positions.
So Benevides takes over as the 24th head coach in the club's history, and guess what? He's Canadian. Born in Toronto, he's currently the only Canadian head coach in the league. So look at the possible Cinderella story for Benevides: born in Toronto, played high school and college football in Toronto, and now may come back to Toronto as a Canadian head coach for the 100th Grey Cup. Movies are made of these types of stories.
The No. 1 thing I like and respect about Coach Benevides is that he's earned his opportunity. From Central Tech High School – as a nose tackle believe it or not – to York University. Then as a guest coach, to an unpaid assistant.
Next a special teams coordinator, linebackers coach, and for the last three years a defensive coordinator. And he also ran the Canadian talent evaluation for the Lions. Mike Benevides has earned it!
The opportunity to be a head coach in the CFL has nothing to do with luck or association. It is based on paying the price.
What will determine whether Benevides experiences success or failure? The same as any head coach: keeping his team healthy and having his players continue to improve. His first challenge is easy to identify: win more games in July and August so there's not as much pressure in September and October.
Through my observation, I would say it is true that maintaining success is tougher than creating it for the first time, and that will be the Lions' ultimate challenge. But it is a new team, with a new head coach who could be a Canadian head coach leading his team in his hometown in the 100th Grey Cup. Sure would make for a good movie or better yet, a true documentary.
