Dina Lohan had been boozing heavily ... on an empty stomach ... before her nuclear blowout with Lindsay last night ... TMZ has learned.
We broke the story ... Lindsay and Dina were clubbing in NYC before they got into a screaming match in a limo.
But while they were partying, we're told Dina was constantly sipping on wine ... and by the time they were ready to leave, she had been through at least 4 glasses and was so trashed she could barely speak.
One source tells us Dina hadn't had anything to eat that night ... which couldn't have helped the situation.
As we previously reported, Lindsay claimed Dina got physical during the argument ... and cops were eventually called to Dina's home.
The two were seen hugging it out this morning -- but we're told Dina has yet to apologize for her actions.
4 glasses of wine?? I could drink that while teaching a driving class! Who gets wasted off 4 glasses of wine... that's barely a bottle!
Milo Jr. is stuck babysitting that bitch Now..he is the new LNOR...good luck on that one.
the other 15 failed before him and he is no difference.
I guess his Techno Faeg band isnt doing so hot
FU, just saw your girlfriend Ali at the store.
Four glasses of wine? Dayum, Dina is one cheap drunk!
White oprah & the orange sunbaked turtle are the worst parents EVER. They're both so arrogant & self centered that they ALWAYS put themselves first ahead of their kids. They both deserve each other...
Disgusting dirty fingernails.... again
I wonder when was the last time she bathed...
So I'm watching XFactor and the previews for the news comes on. Give you one guess whats in for the news at 10pm?
Dina and Lindsay fight and Micheal Lohan revealing the phone call....Bwahhhahaha!
Dina is going to trip the fvk out, cause now every news station will pick it up that phone call and air it all over every station tomorrow morning
Can't wait for Rosanna Scotto and Dave Price in the AM..
99 bottles of wine on the wall, 99 bottles of wine. Take one down beat the ho down, 98 bottles of wine on......
Poop, now I have to stay up and watch TMZ online late. "101012_tmzlive
Lindsay Lohan and Dina Lohan's night of partying ended with a fight, police, allegations of cocaine use ... and a frantic phone call to Daddy dearest, Michael Lohan. Now, we break down the tape of that call, and play the part you haven't heard yet -- LiLo ripping into her father!"
Lindsay and Dina were probably hugging because Lindsay is leaving NY, as in a goodbye hug. It probably wasn't a "I'm sorry for being a crazy bitch last night" hug.
Why are people trying to make excuses for either of these two? "Oh, she didn't have anything to eat blah blah blah" like that matters! These are two ADULT women, both of whom are responsible for their own actions, nothing excuses what either of them did. They both drink, they both use drugs, they're both complete train wrecks. How could this have gone any other way? It was only a matter of time before these two white trash queens had it out.
I love when she says she has to go to work in the morning!!!!! It is morning moron! These people are beyond white trash.they need to lose everything and maybe then they will get their act together! What 50 plus year old woman goes out and parties with her drunk, druggie kid till 4 am! Also, why would anyone hire Lindsey? The only one who sounds some what normal is the father.
One of the neighbors said that the 40k is the back taxes Dina owes.
She was b!tching about it the other day. YES! The house is in forecloser, has been for a while now. There is also three leins on the house.
Dina is spinning downwards fast. Think she will OD before Lindsay does
4 glasses? Oh my goodness!
4 glasses? Oh my goodness!

The Adult Tricycle
If you're looking for a place to find the latest, most accurate information on the adult tricycle, you've come to the right website. The adult trike is one of the fastest growing segments of the bicycle market, because of its comfort, safety, stability and ease of use. While you might think that adult tricycles are a step backwards from the regular bicycle, you'd definitely be wrong. A tricycle for adults is designed specifically for both performance and comfort, and many people who are reluctant to ride a regular bike because of the discomfort of pressure on their neck, back, shoulders, arms, backside, elbows and wrists have found an adult tricycle to be a better alternative.
This website will provide information about adult tricycles, including reviews, videos and where you can find an adult tricycle for sale.

If you like chocolate a lot, you will enjoy this recipe. My kids would have liked to rate it 5 stars while my husband and I would have rated it 3 stars, "good, solid recipe." We averaged it to 4 stars. I followed the recipe exactly as it is written except for putting pecans on only half of the pan. As with any 9X13 dessert, this is a great dish to share with another family. We gave half of it away so we didn't have to eat all those calories ourselves. Not a healthy dish at all!

The Best Pancakes and Waffles in the Monterey Area
I love Wagon Wheel -- cash only for an old-fashioned American style breakfast until 2 pm. No recollection of waffles and haven't tried the pancakes. . . stick to basics here.
I usually share some humongous breakfast platter of eggs, breakfast meats, toast, with a girlfriend . We avoid weekends and usually go after the 12 noon rush so we can linger while we catch up on each other's doings.

Your go-to delivery for dinner in Oakland/Berkeley?
Earlier this year while moving residences in Oakland, I ordered from Spoonrocket 2 to 3 time a week and recommended them highly. I have since retracted that recommendation as the food quality deteriorated, price increased, delivery time lengthened as the company expanded into San Francisco. At the same time the company shortened weekend availability and laid off many of their staff (kitchen, drivers, customer service). Too bad as the original concept, product, delivery, and customer service were excellent! I miss them.

Roadfood along the 5 btwn SF and LA?
Lunched in the bar area at Harris Ranch while using the Tesla Supercharger.
I had a steak salad (forget which one, but it was okay. I'm from the Salinas Valley and didn't think the greens were exceptional). DH had liver & onions (he thought it was very good) -- everything else seemed overpriced. We got lucky on a non-holiday weekday and were in & out in an hour b/c we told the servers we were on a deadline (but had to keep reminding them).
Now that I've been there, done that, only reason to go again would be to use the Supercharger -- we were the only one there! I would have preferred food that was more interesting and reasonably priced whatever it was.

Where to live in Oakland for food?
Right now, there's a dearth of property for sale in Oakland's "desirable" areas leading to high prices for fixer-ups -- believe me, DH & I just sold one.
Where to live in Oakland for food?
Back in 1969 when I was introduced to the term, the speaker told me her group used "jingletown" all the time until it occurred to someone that it wasn't ethnically correct any longer. Apparently, her friend considered it a derogatory term referring to hispanic/latino origin?

How old is your child? If you add public schools into the mix, Grand Lake is a good walking neighborhood (lived there for 25+ years) with one of the better Oakland public elementary schools -- be careful of the zone boundaries though (I know someone who moved 2 homes on the "wrong" side of her preferred school. Good rentals in the Adams Point area. Great bus, casual carpool pickup stops, and easy freeway access too.
Firebaugh (I-5): The Apricot Tree - The apricot shake still remains the only great thing here ... but it is FABULOUS
Have stopped at Apricot Tree a couple more times since 2010, usually during summer months, going to Fresno. On those repeat visits, the apricot halves were frozen -- a plus since I drive the shakes to Fresno to share with my apricot-loving friend.

Apr 25, 2014Stephanie Wong in San Francisco Bay Area
When Jalisco Cafe is not open, I go to Mi Pueblo supermarket -- especially if it's towards the end of the day. I asked for "mixta" & not the big hunks of meat to get more of the tasty bits. Of course, there's a bunch of fatty pieces that I render out by toasting the carnitas in the oven while the rest of our meal is being prepped. Still worthwhile

Fish Tacos - SF Dish of the Month March 2014
I've only tried that Mi Rancho Taco Truck once -- convenient as one can call in an order. I don't recall what tacos I ordered, but it wasn't a fish taco, and certainly wasn't very memorable. Just haven't had much motivation to return -- seemed pricey for what I got. Will give Mi Rancho another try sometime, but I'm much more motivated to walk a bit further to Sinaloa's orange truck!

Guerra Quality Meats in San Francisco
Last week we were out by the Cow Palace and took a swing by Guerra's to tour the meat counter (we were happy to note that the L Muni stop is on their corner (15th & Taraval) with parking lot access across the street from Guerra's. It was such a gorgeous clear day, DH & I picked up a Sciliano on ciabatta ($8) and a deviled egg to share down at Ocean Beach (Tasty sandwich just right for lunch; bland deviled egg).
It was definitely a fun. Honor system for waiting for deli service (no numbering system), but very polite, old-time courtesy between all customers of this neighborhood shop ("where everybody know your name") -- tight space so we all got friendly very fast.
I'll stop by again if remotely nearby as I loved the meat displays (lots of veal, but no kidney chops). Fish wasn't that exciting and deli selections were modest compared to Genova (Oakland), but this is a neighborhood store! So

Spoonrocket: Designer meals $6 delivered
Just tried Spoonrocket for the first time after having agreat conversation with Adarius, Customer Service Manager, because my address was not accepted as within their delivery region. He set up a bogus primary address for me with the actual delivery address as the second address line.
We started our conversation at 4:58 pm and got the driver's call from our front door at 5:15 pm. This definitely met the advertised "within 15 minutes" AND included time for the Spoonrocket work around to be set up and my completing the order of 3 entrees for 2 people: 2 stuffed Sonoma chicken breasts with drummettes (described as stuffed with sourdough, brie cheese, dried cherries, pecans and custard in a herb gravy, smashed potatoes, green beans -- I missed the pecans and cherries in the stuffing) and 1 farfalle pasta "in white wine herb sauce, butternut squash, kale, pine nuts, capers, Parmesan cheese". Brownies "white and dark chocolate marbled with toffee bits" at $3 were sold out.
Chicken breast is not my fav, but the herbed stuffing was flavorful. Green beans and pasta were al dente. We added extra grated cheese to our taste to the pasta.

At Costco if I didn't find an item or forgot to pick up an item, I ask at the checkout register and someone will be sent to get it and bring up to me. Easy-peasy friendly customer service at Salinas, Richmond, and San Leandro CA stores. I do admit to shopping on week days as it's much less crowded.

A good friend of mine, Jessica, adopted a child from China about ten years ago. When Jessica's daughter was around four, she exhibited a lot of anxiety whenever Jessica left the house. Jessica would want to pop out for a trip to the grocery store, coffee with her friends, or even a date with her husband, and her daughter would go into a rage, screaming and clinging to her mother, begging her not to leave her. Jessica had two other children, neither of whom exhibited this behavior, and she was perplexed as to why her daughter would feel so insecure. And why she would do it now when she hadn't been that way as an infant or toddler.
She told me about the conversations she had with her daughter, repeatedly telling her that she was going to come back and that she shouldn't worry, but no amount of talking would change the behavior, her daughter still cried and still clung. The situation had become so unbearable with Jessica becoming a virtual slave to her daughter's anxiety, either refusing to leave the house without her daughter, or sneaking out while she was distracted, or waiting until she was asleep. None of the solutions was ideal and Jessica knew that she was just putting off dealing with the problem that she now saw spreading to her other, younger children, who started to exhibit similar behaviors.
Being the intelligent woman that she is, Jessica decided to solve the problem by giving her daughter things that she valued. One day, before a trip to the mailbox to retrieve the mail (a trip that would take less than five minutes) she approached her daughter and told her how upset she knew she became when mommy left, but this time, Jessica was going to give her daughter something she knew that Jessica valued. She gave her daughter her wedding ring. She said, "I love my wedding ring, right?" Her daughter nodded. And she said, "I would not ever want to lose my wedding ring, would I?" And her daughter shook her head. Jessica then asked her daughter is she would watch it while she ran outside to get the mail.
The strategy worked. Her daughter clutched the ring as Jessica went to the mailbox, and gradually Jessica would leave for longer periods until she could be gone for the entire evening. Sometimes she would change up the routine, leaving her driver's license or another valuable thing, and gradually her daughter came to understand that her mother was not abandoning her.
I thought this was a wonderful strategy–and it might work for others whose kids exhibit similar behaviors.

KALAMAZOO (WKZO) -- The Red Arrow Golf Course in downtown Kalamazoo needs your help. The nine hole municipal facility is looking for volunteers to handle just about every aspect of its operation.
Coordinator Diane Worden says that they started using volunteers a few years ago when the course almost had to shut down due to a lack of revenue, but the volunteer model may have turned things around. Most of the jobs involve collecting money from things like concessions and club rentals.
Last year, the course collected 14 thousand dollars that way. Anyone interested in helping can contact Volunteer Kalamazoo, or call 349-362.

Top 10 tropical islands
posted in Destinations . posted by Dave Emery on April 20, 2008 . 66 Comments
If killer sunsets, white sands and transparent waters are calling your name, a tropical island escape may well be in order. From Greece to Hawaii, we've scoured the globe to find 10 pieces of paradise that will wash your worries away.
1. Caprera Island, Sardinia, Italy
Caprera Island is the place for beaching, sailing and bird spotting. It's a small island off the coast of Sardinia, Italy. The name is most likely given because of the wild goats inhabiting the island ("Capra" is Italian for goats). Caprera Island has been declared a natural reserve, being the home of the Royal Seagull, the Cormorant and the Peregrine Falcon.
2. Capri, Italy
Another Italian must-see is the small island of Capri in the Bay of Naples. One of the island's biggest drawcards is the Blue Grotto; a cave at the water's edge, opening to the sea that Romans used as a bath. Capri Island hosts several art festivals from April to September that are popular with tourists; you can see anything from painting and sculptures to plays and traditional dances. Capri also puts on a killer sunrise.
3. Santorini, Greece
Nearby in Greece is the romance capital of Santorini. Spectacular sunsets, fantastic beaches and an active volcano are just a few its specialities. The islands are what remained from a volcanic explosion that split one single island into several smaller ones. Be sure to check out the 3,500-year-old Minoan town preserved in volcanic ash.
4. Cocoa Island, Maldives
If romance is on your agenda, Cocoa Island is your best pick. Located in the Maldive's South Male Atoll, this little piece of heaven takes pride in its white, powdery sands and the turquoise water. The Robinson Crusoe-style island is home to some fascinating small huts, with deluxe furnishing and private sun decks.
5. Cousine Island, Seychelles
Named in 2012 as the world's third most expensive island, Cousine Island is a private island in Seychelles. In 1968, the island was purchased by Birdlife International to save the remaining warblers. The impressive number of species and habitats set in an exotic landscape make Cousine Island one of our all-time favourite islands.
6. Kauai, Hawaii
Of course, we couldn't write a top 10 islands list without including Hawaii. Known as the "Garden Isle", Kauai is more laidback and less populated than the other Hawaiian islands. Formed around six million years ago, it's home to a multitude of landscapes that just cry out to be photographed. And there's plenty of activities to keep you busy, including golf, horseback riding and water sports.
7. South Beach, Miami, Florida
Probably one of the best-known beaches on the list, South Beach is a vibrant place that never sleeps. Hundreds of nightclubs, restaurants and hotels attract both American and international tourists every summer. One of the busiest times of year (especially for the Pearl and Nikki Beach night spots) is spring break when students come to relax and party.
8. Ihuru Island, Maldives
Set in the Maldives, Ihuru Island is the place to go for total relaxation. It also happens to be an environmentally-conscious island; using biodegradable materials, solar heating and eco-friendly methods for reactivating corals. If that's not enough to win you over, you'll love its white beaches, shallow lagoon and shady palm trees.
9. Bora Bora, French Polynesia
Bora Bora is possibly the single most famous island in the world. The volcanic island has a stunning lagoon with abundant underwater life waiting to be explored. There's loads of activities to save you from "going troppo": underwater safari, water sports, jeep tours, horseback riding and kiteboarding.
10. The Similan Islands, Thailand
Beneath the transparent waters of Thailand's Similan Islands is a playground for divers. We're talking gorgeous coral growths, tropical fish and impressive boulders. Conditions for diving are great year-round, with 20-30 metres visibility standard. Most dive trips are available from November until Mid-May.

South Beach FL? You have to be kidding.
last time i checked, Miami wasn't an island.
nice list, I'd definitely give them all a try if I had the money
The photos for Cocoa Island (Maldives) and Cousine Island (Sychelles) need to be swapped around.
Nothing beats the Maldives though!
Miami isn't…South Beach is.
Donny, if you had a map you would see that South Beach is.
Lol. Miami. Gold.
Uhm… ok, see it's like this. Miami and everything around it sucks. Really. To include South Beach (which indeed IS technically an island just as Manhattan is an island) on your list just throws this whole list into doubt. I used to live near there and it is a sweaty, steamy nasty, urban hell hole that you could not pay me to live near again.
Want to get robbed? Miami. Want to be surrounded by the most urban, crowded, packed and filthy (diapers, cigarette butts, bottles, cans, etc.) beaches around? Miami. Want to get cut off in traffic, honked at, flipped off, screamed at or threatened while driving to the beach? Miami. Want to be obstinately ignored, unless you speak some Spanish, by hotel staff/wait staff/service staff? Miami.
Bora Bora! Looks like a place you could be content to just spend days at the beach just staring at the sea.
Obviously you haven't been to Croatia
Even though all of these are really marvellous palces, you've missed many many others!!!
I recomend Hvar island in Coatia
Sorry, Croatia
What about Chumbé, la Digue and la Réunion?
Thanks, now my girls gonna wanna go on vacationi!! lol
I've been to Kauai and South Beach so only 8 more to go.
Kauai is truly a tropical paradise. Be sure and visit Hanalei Bay and Bubba's Hamburgers.
South Beach is really bed choice here! Forget Galapagos?? Or just come to Croatia to see and explore more than 1000 islands and clifs! something you cannot imagine… :-))
South Beach is really bad choice here! Forget Galapagos?? Or just come to Croatia to see and explore more than 1000 islands and clifs! something you cannot imagine… :-)) with green-blue sea…
Where is Fernando de Noronha, Brazil?
Where did all the Pacific islands go? Fiji? Samoa? Easter Island? Anyone?
I am surprised that no island from the Philippines is mentioned. To begin with Palawan is amazing.
Santorini is absolutely gorgeous. Black beaches, unmatched sunsets, a volcano. The food is fantastic.
I was there for 10 days and didn't have a chance to enjoy it all.
Nothing tops sitting on your balcony at night and having a cloud move all around you as it makes its way up and over the mountain.
If you have a chance, its worth it.
the largest picture in "5. Capri, Italy" section actually depicts the peninsula of Sorrento as seen by Sorrento city and not Capri Island
Nice islands but those are just the famous ones. You've missed the private resort island of Amanpulo in Palawan, Philippines and Boracay.
Definitely The Best Beach Ever Similan Island, Thailand
I have been there and it totally look the same as the pictures.
Most amazing crystal water…
yeah Similan is beautiful but I think I still prefer Phi Phi island and South Beach Florida…I don't think so
FERNANDO DE NORONHA in BRAZIL is much better than a lot of these islands!!!!
wowww.. definitely great guide… 10x for articles…
i think if i have to choose one, i will go for Santorini in Greece.
Wow. Those pictures are truly remarkable. If only I had the money to travel to Bora Bora!
culebra island off of puerto rico is really nice….
Absolutely amazing. The color contrast of white and blue is incredible. Miyakojima in Japan also looks like this.
A must…
BORA BORA a dream… to come true.
Island's are beautiful but can be boring after a while. Similans are my choice.
Cocoa Island, Maldives is my on of the favorite place.
Cocos Island (Spanish: Isla del Coco) is an uninhabited island located off the shore of Costa Rica. It constitutes the 11th district (one of 13) of Puntarenas Canton of the province of Puntarenas.. It is one of the National Parks of Costa Rica. It is located in the Pacific Ocean, approximately 550 km (340 mi) from the Pacific shore of Costa Rica, at 05°31′08″N 087°04′18″W / 5.51889°N 87.07167°W / 5.51889; -87.07167. With an area of approximately 23.85 km² (9.2 mi²), about 8×3 km (5×1.9 mi) and a perimeter of around 23.3 km this island is more or less rectangular in shape.
There are many other islands to consider: Lipari, Salina (Sicily), Lavezzi (Corsica), Hundreds of Croatian Islands according to your taste: Hvar, Korcula, Mljet, Vis, Dugi otok
Yes, i´m from miami…
South Padre Island rocks.

Introduction to hot springs spa
Bathing Time:
Asahiyama Zoo
Asahiyama zoo which has become a typical tourist attraction of Hokkaido is in the northernmost part of the country and was opened in 1967 (Showa 42). As a result of many unique renovations in recent years, the number of visitors in Year 2005 (Heisei 17) exceeded 2 million 67 thousand and it was ranked 2nd among all zoos in the country. Further, the number of visitors during July ~ September exceeded the Ueno zoo of Tokyo and it was recorded as the number one zoo in Japan with its growing popularity as a place of recreation in a country where zoos are not so popular for recreation. Previously, the visitors were from Asahikawa city and surrounding areas but these days it is crowded with tourists and school trips, not only from Hokkaido but from entire Japan. There are also many foreign tourists from Taiwan, Hong Kong etc. and it has become a place that children as well as adults can enjoy.
Heiwa street shopping mall
The "permanent pedestrian road (year round pedestrian mall )" first built in Japan is the Heiwa street shopping mall. This main street starting from JR Asahikawa station and continuing to the north received a lot of attention from all over Japan in 1972 (Showa 47) as Japan's first experimental pedestrian-only shopping mall. It attracts many people as the main street of Asahikawa though its name was changed from Division street to Heiwa street and eventually to Heiwa street shopping mall. There are various shops like departmental stores, all sorts of specialty stores, beauty parlors, Ramen noodle shops etc. standing on both sides of the street and many people or tourists visit this place as a shopping zone or gathering place. This entire street was renovated and transformed in 2002. Not only the fountains, bronze sculptures including "Young Woman" by Sato Churyo" have been installed at intervals on the street but also benches for resting have been installed and has become a street that can be enjoyed from a perspective of culture and art.
Asahi bridge
The most beloved bridge among the numerous bridges of many people as a symbol of Asahikawa is the Asahi bridge. There are about 130 small and big rivers including the Ishikari, Ushishubetsu, Chuubetsu running through Asahikawa and over 750 bridges. Therefore Asahikawa is also known as the "District of rivers and bridges". Of all the bridges, Asahibashi (Asahi bridge) is the most popular among people as one of the symbols of Asahikawa. Completed in November 1932 (Heiwa 7), it was built as an important traffic route connecting the south and north of the city, with steel imported from Germany. It is a beautiful arch bridge of 225.4 meter length and 18.3 meter width and trams were running on this bridge till 1956 (Showa 31). This historical bridge is admired as one of the major 3 bridges in Hokkaido for the beautiful curve of the arch bridge and in the afterglow of sunset and river mist in the winter etc. Among these, the Asahi bridge reflected in the afterglow of sunset is really a perfect picture. It was registered as one of the Hokkaidō Heritage sites in 2004.
Asahikawa TAISETSU Arena
This was opened in September 1986 (Showa 61) at cost of 25 billion yen (building) as a promotion place for winter indoor sports, health promotion place for large people, multipurpose arena for holding all sorts of events. The arena built near the national forest in Asahikawa city known as the stage of a novel 'Freezing point' by Miura Ayako has a salient feature of semicircular shelter.
Daisetsuzan National Park
Daisetsuzan National Park is Japan's largest national park. The Daisetsuzan mountain range in the center with Hokkaido's highest peak "Asahidake", is about 2300 square kilometers in area and the span of mountains is really magnificent. The elevation is approximately 2000m, but it has a high mountain environment of around 3000m from Honshu because the latitude is high and even Ochotona hyperborean yesoensis which is said to have survived from the ice age is found here. There are rich hot springs at the base of the mountains and people are visiting hot spring places like Sounkyo, Yukomambetsu, Tenninkyo, Nukabira, Shirokane, Shikaribetsuko, Tomuraushi to experience nature and for sightseeing. It is 1 hr 50 minutes by bus from Super hotel.
Farm Tomita
Lavender garden that spread the Furano lavender all over the country. Gourmet and souvenir etc. can also be enjoyed other than lavender. The lavender blooming period is from early blooming in June end to late blooming in September end. Dozens of flowers like tulip, cosmos, poppy, marigold etc. bloom during May ~ October. The lavender, petunia, impatiens etc. are in full bloom in greenhouse and can be enjoyed even in winter. The in-park-only lavender soft cream (250 yen) or lavender hand cream, lavender scented cute eye pillow shade that gives quite sleep are very popular.
Goro's stone house
The famous long running dramas, 'From The Northern Country' and '89 Kikyo' used this stone house built by Goro Kuroita as the main set in their shows. It is an ecological house formerly built using a large number of stones excavated from Furanodake which is volcanically active. The landscape of red windmills for wind power generation standing alongside can be viewed from the observatory behind the stone house. The house is just as rustic as it looks in the drama series. It is a must visit spot of Furano if you are a drama fan since Goro Kuroita is supposed to be still living in this house.
Biei hills
Biei became famous in 1971, when a landscape photographer returning from a photography trip around Japan accidentally stopped in Biei/Kamifurano hills and was deeply moved by the landscape. Since then he visited Biei continuously for 16 years. Most of the photos taken at that time were not only in photo albums or picture postcards, but also in many posters or films, TV commercials etc. The beauty of Biei thus started spreading in the whole country and 'Maeda Masahiro' became a world famous photographer and opened his photo studio in Biei hills in a closed down primary school and even today makes a great impression on the visitors. Ken and Mary Tree (poplar), Parent and Child Tree (oak), Seven Star tree (oak), Mild Seven Hill (larch), Philosophy tree (modified poplar) etc. are famous. Biei hills spreading over a panoramic scenery is a prominent scenic spot in Hokkaido.

Rising Awareness of Potential Cost and Efficiency Savings Will Spur Rising Adoption, According to Findings from Decision Resources Group
BURLINGTON, Mass., June 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Decision Resources Group finds that high cost and low awareness of dental computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems have historically impeded adoption. However, as training programs increasingly educate dentists and technicians on the speed, accuracy and potential long-term cost savings associated with these systems, they will be increasingly adopted over manual restoration manufacturing methods. Consequently, the dental CAD/CAM market will see accelerating market growth, reaching a value surpassing $760 million in 2022.
Other key findings from Decision Resources Group's coverage of the global dental CAD/CAM system market:

I forgot to post pictures of this sooner??
This is my borzoi doll uvu It has a wire armature so it can be posed! The head and paws were made from super sculpey, and the body was stuffed with batting and faux fur was sewn on. MAJOR PROPS TO MY MOM because I can't sew and she volunteered herself to help me with the body.
Wonky anatomy and too-long fur aside, I think this came out pretty good for my first doll!

SPOKANE, Wash – It was an emotional morning at the Spokane International Airport as nearly 90 veterans of World War II, Korea and Vietnam gathered together, along with their families and supporters, bound for Washington D.C. to see the memorials dedicated to the battles they fought and the friends they lost.
"Oh golly, I get kind of choked up when I think about all those memorials because those are the real heroes, those guys who gave us the liberties and the freedom we have today," WWII Navy Veteran Al Messenger told KHQ's Kelsey Watts. "It'll be an honor to go visit them."
Messenger is one of the many veterans traveling on this first Inland Northwest Honor Flight of 2014, which takes our heroes to our nation's capital at no cost to them – their service is payment enough.
The trip is partially made possible thanks to a 14-year-old from Chewelah, Justin Peterson, who began fundraising for Honor Flight at the age of 9 and has since raised $75,000 for the mission. Peterson was on hand for the send-off at the airport Tuesday morning and was met with a crowd of handshakes and applause.
While the Honor Flight pays tribute to veterans from decades ago, this flight is dedicated to three Fairchild airmen who lost their lives in a tanker crash in Kyrgyzstan in 2013: Capt. Mark T. Voss, 27, Capt. Victoria A. Pinckney, 27, and Tech Sgt. Herman Mackey III, 30. Pinckney's mother was among those in attendance Tuesday.
"It's our very small way of honoring them and making sure their service and sacrifice are not forgotten," Inland Northwest Honor Flight Director Tony Lamanna told the crowd.
"My aviators never gave up, this greatest generation never gave up and today we see that tie," Col. Brian Newberry told KHQ's Kelsey Watts.
The Honor Flight returns to Spokane at 8:00 p.m. Wednesday, and the public is encouraged to attend and welcome our heroes home.

Here's how to read IDC's Apple forecast
Yes, the researcher says that the company will lose share in the tablet market. But that market is expected to see explosive growth.
Our markets are a sad place where computerized trading and short term hedging is causing fluctuations that were unheard of 20 years ago. The idea that the exchanges were used to raise capital for industry is almost forgotten.

Ah, the Kardashians. Week after week, they remind me how wonderful, awful, and insufferably inane family can be – all within the course of an hour. This week, Kim K and the Baby Jenners are having some serious bonding time – applying fake eyelashes, jumping on beds, jogging, tackling assignments for Seventeen magazine together, voguing while wearing fake handlebar mustaches – premium sisterly fun!
Kendall and Kylie are now West Coast Contributors for Seventeen Magazine, a position I would've mercilessly slaughtered the entire Kardashian family for when I was a wee, writerly teen with a closet full of teen fashion mags. But Kendall and Kylie TOTES deserve it, because they are…sort of famous. It doesn't matter that they titter at antiquated vocab words like "swoon", as in "Any teenage girl would swoon for this opportunity." (I myself use "swoon" at least twice a day.)
But at least Kendallylie know how to dress for the part. In fact, I'm kind of shocked, because in last week's episode, they both looked 12 years old – and this week, they are all leggy, made up and boobified to the point where it's slightly alarming. In fact, I'm clutching my pearls right now. It's almost as if some E! network exec saw the first episode and said "I don't think we're actualizing Kendall and Kylie's underage sex potential enough this season. Luckily, we have just enough room in the budget for two tiny boob jobs…"
Kendall and Kylie's first assignment for Seventeen is hitting the streets to recruit models for a fashion shoot. But little Kylie has reservations about her first professional gig. "I'm just such a shy person, I don't know if I can just walk up to random people." Kylie says aloud to the MILLIONS of viewers at home. Sure enough though, Kendall does all the legwork, and Kylie slowly (and rather conspicuously) shirks away from each new model prospect. But as you can probably guess, Kylie's strangely selective crippling shyness is not the main point of contention in this episode.
Just like last week, it's all mama drama, all the time. Kim and Kourtney are lunching – chatting about Dash, drinking Arnold Palmers, and looking their casual best. Kris Jenner is of course, a topic of conversation. Her stupid book is bringing up some long buried resentments on Kourtney's part. One million years ago, Kris cheated on Papa Kardashian, and that's why they divorced, and now that Kourtney's a mom of her own, she just can't fathom how a young married mother could do that to her children. NOBODY, except for flipping Kim, even touches on the point that Kourtney isn't married to Scott – so does that mean she'd never leave him because they have children together, or does she feel that she's free to leave whenevs because they're not married? No one is asking the hard-hitting questions here, Kardashians! Kim also says that Kourtney and Kris are very different, because Kourtney would stay in a relationship for 10 years, even if she was miserable. I can't think of who she might be referring to…
Anyhoo, Kourtney has not let this stuff go for over 20 years, and now pregnancy hormones (and the Kris Jenner memoir) have brought it all bubbling back up to the surface. In a particularly telling Skype sesh, Kim and Khloe discuss Kourtney's lingering bitterness – and in one confusing moment that is quickly glossed over, Khloe asks if that means she also judges Kim, because she got divorced…wait up, Khloe. The topic of conversation is wives who cheat…are we suggesting that Kim is also an adulteress because she's canoodling off-screen with Kanye West, even though she and what's his face are still in separation/divorce limbo? Again, everyone seems to be skimping on the real meat in this reality show sandwich!
Later on, Kourtney invites the whole fam over for lunch. She has a ridiculously hot, beefy personal chef, who Kris Jenner, of course, thinks is flirting with her. Kourtney then lays in to Kris for being "completely inappropriate"…however 1. She's way off base, and is being a ridiculous prude, and 2. Earlier in this ep, Kourtney not-really-jokingly asked if her mom boned a contestant from "The Voice" in the bathroom at a Babyface concert, (BTW readers, if you're under 21, there's a tiny chance that's how you were conceived).
But here's a serious question that deserves a serious answer: why is Kourtney, an unwed mama-of-2-to-be, allowed to employ such hot, premium affair material as her personal chef, while rebuking her married mother for ever finding a man attractive? Ridiculously exploitive Kris Jenner of last week's episode, you are almost forgiven. Kourtney is in flaming evil bitch mode, and she might not let you out of this week's two part Kardashian Memorial Day extravaganza alive.
After Kris and Kourtney's lunchtime showdown, Kourtney and Scott have a non-conversation about the day's events. Scott says they never talk about personal things – because Kourtney likes to keep it all "in her head". Truth-telling time: either Kourtney and Scott's relationship chemistry remains carefully hidden off-screen, or…yeah. Honestly, Scott has more natural chemistry with everyone else on the show, including Bruce.
Kourtney's chat with Scott doesn't really resolve anything, and only serves to reaffirm the lingering issues in their own relationship, but after yet another sister-on-sister Skype sesh, Kourtney decides to seek some counseling from her shrink-on-call. We don't know how this conversation goes however, because these are Kourtney's private, innermost thoughts – just kidding! It's all on-screen, of course. There are more tears and more BS about how Kourtney would "never do that to her children" RE: Kris Jenner's affair. But later – a breakthough! Kourtney's anger towards Kris also has something to do with her trust issues with Scott. Hokay! This isn't really a plot arc you can wrap up in a neat little bow. Kourtney clearly has issues with both her mom and her baby daddy, and unlike Khloe, she's way less likely to hug it out (but she eventually does anyways, for the sake of good tv). Maybe she'll continue to let us press our ear to the door of her therapist's office – but honestly, watching a grown woman work things out with her shrink on national TV makes me feel all kinds of dirty. Plus, I can't help but judge people who seem so brutally un-self-aware.
In other news: Kim Kardashian is afraid of spiders, and she isn't any less afraid of spiders when people throw them on her. Also, surprise! The Kardashian-Jenners don't believe in spaying and neutering their pets, and one of the Baby Jenners is clearly under the impression that Bob Barker is no longer with us. There's about 15 minutes of filler involving a stolen Ferrari prank which is not really worth anyone's time. Also, Kim Kardashian thinks Indian food is disgusting. You heard me right.
Oh, and with a little sisterly lovin' and encouragement, and a brief trial by fire, Kylie overcomes her inability to talk to pretty strangers. The day is saved! Or at least, three pages of content in a recent issue of Seventeen magazine. Now stay tuned, because the long holiday weekend dished up two helpings of those krazy Kardashians! Check out your second heaping helping of Kardashian drama on the next page.

It's Weinergate! This story has it all: sex, scandal, intrigue, and social media. But there's a twist: Sure, Rep. Anthony Weiner went mad with power and sent pictures of his junk to random women via his Twitter account. But what's really intriguing about this story is that it's a political sex scandal without real actual sex taking place. That's how life is here in the future – stupid! Still, Weiner isn't the first to screw up via social media. Let's recap some other infamous lowlights:
Model/TV personality Jenn Sterger was contacted by Brett Favre via a phony MySpace account—under the improbable pseudonym "Screaming Lord Byron." The legendary quarterback left Sterger messages like: "I saw you in tunnel at last game. Got your name from office person. I'm new to the team." Next came weird desperate voicemail messages. This was followed by the Infamous Brett Favre sexting penis pictures - creepy touchdown in double-overtime! Oh, and we're not linking to a photo. You can find that yourself.
2. Gilbert Gottfried's Tsunami Twitter Jokes
Comedian Gilbert Gottfried was given the boot from his role as the voice of the Aflac duck when, after the 2011 Japanese tsunami, he tweeted such jokes as, "I just split up with my girlfriend, but like the Japanese say, 'They'll be another one floating by any minute now.'" Still, at least he totally showed remorse for it.
3. The Rugby Star and the Dog
In Australia, Canberra Raiders ruby star Joel Monaghan was forced to quit after photos emerged on Twitter of the star center in sexually compromising positions with a dog. Monaghan left the team in tears—the dog could not be reached for comment.
4. Schoolgirls and Aussie Footy Stars
More from Oz: the Australian Football League went into damage control after naked photos of famous players from the St. Kilda Football Club were published online via Twitter and Facebook. The players apparently scorned a 17-year old schoolgirl, who wrote on the page: "Feel free to forward it on to everyone!!! Let's see if we can get them humiliated on the news by tonight—I will not stop until I am satisfied; it's basically just about getting revenge.'' Moral of the story: never mess with Ozzie chicks.
5. Sarah Palin's Crosshairs
Palin's "Take Back the 20" campaign called on Americans to vote Democrats out of office in conservative districts. The announcement on her Facebook page was accompanied by an image of targeted districts, with gun sight crosshairs over them. Unfortunately, one of those targeted - Arizona Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords - ended up being shot down by some nutcase, inspiring a few desperate-for-a-story journalists to link the two events. Despite these people being in the minority, of course, Palin still managed to make her response an attention-seeking victim-cry without ever apologizing for the poor-taste stunt in the first place.
6. Congressman Christopher Lee's Shirtless Photos
This is pure vanilla compared to the current Weinergate scandal: Congressman Christopher Lee resigned after sending a shirtless photo of himself to a woman he met on Craigslist. Though he was bare-chested and flexing his muscles, there was not a single junk shot. Which, really, seems like he's not even trying. Come on, dude! You're a politician! If you're not found dead, bent over a table wearing women's stockings with a bag over your head, you're not doing your job!

Poll Vault: GTA V is your most anticipated game of 2012
By Yahoo! Games | Plugged In – Mon, Jan 23, 2012 3:19 PM EST
After a surprisingly sluggish 2011 for the video game industry, all eyes are focused on a promising 2012.
GTA V (Rockstar Games)We posed that very question -- "What game are you looking forward to the most in 2012?" -- in our last Yahoo! Games reader poll, and the result was a runaway (driveaway?) winner in Grand Theft Auto V.
Rockstar's upcoming counter-culture gangster paradise took in a whopping 4879 votes, good for 30% of the 16,383 total votes cast. A distant second was Halo 4 with 3274 (20%), followed by Diablo III with 2616 (16%) and Mass Effect 3 with 2431 (15%).
Not exactly a shocking outcome, but with tons of anticipated games lining up for a crack at your wallet this year, it's a safe bet that there are still quite a few surprises in store for us in 2012. Still, it looks like most of you can't wait to return to Los Santos to see whatever the Rockstar team has in store for us this time.
Agree or disagree? What's your most anticipated game? Let us know in the comments, or hit us up on Facebook and ring in!

For some odd reason, kids just know more than adults. I think it may have to do with the fact that their imaginations are incredibly active and they say what comes to mind in a completely uninhibited way. The creative team at Audio Tour Hack took this to heart and decided that there was no better way to explore the 4th floor of the Museum of Modern Art than with the voices of little children telling the art-going public what they think of Pollock, Lichtenstein, and Warhol. Visit the website to hear some well-edited critiques from what can only be future artists-in-the-making.

Ugh. I hate to admit it but this really dissapoints me because my friend just recruited me to play with him on the EU server about 2 months ago. I'm just entering into my first paid month here, and We both Just hit 60. If we would of waited a few more months it would of been alot faster to hit 60, I could of buffed his hunter or rogue Alt to 60, and we would of gotten to ride around on Zebras also?! Feh. :\ How lame. I hope they offer up a retro-active way to apply this.

Time for another convenient list!
- Posting this is me completely showing my writing cards. I know for sure that I've completely ripped off the phrase "speaks in paragraphs" more than once, and don't worry I'm sure "verbal waterfalls" will be coming soon. I love love LOVE both of those almost as much as I love any interview that takes the time to describe the way the boys talk.
- "more or less" is adorable and something I've sorely under used in writing in the past. I'll remedy that posthaste.
- "salade avec une sauce vinaigrette" just makes me think "omelette du fromage" and I laugh and laugh.
- Also, can we say that it's totally a dick move but also kind of hilarious and adorable when Guy just flat out refuses to speak, much less speak in English.
- Speaking of dick moves: "He could stand to lose a little weight." Ouch, man.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio -- Today, the day before the 16th annual Summer Festival of the Arts kicks off on the campus of Youngstown State University, a small contingent of vendors began pitching their tents and setting up their wares.
With items that range from dresses to glassware and frog-themed vases to gourmet coffee, the show will feature 80 artists from several states, says the event coordinator, Lori Factor.
The Summer Festival of the Arts begins at 10 a.m. Saturday and runs to 7 p.m. It resumes at 11 a.m. Sunday and ends at 5 p.m.
"Each one really does have its own flavor and it all depends on what you like," Factor said. "There's everything from photography to wood to paintings and jewelry. My advice is to come with an open mind and see what you like."
When the festival began 16 years ago, doubt was palpable that it would succeed, says YSU professor George McCloud, who was involved in putting on the first festival.
"The community is responsible for this," he said. "When we first started, people told us, 'No one's going to come to this. No one wants to see this stuff.' The success really showed how much people love the arts in this community."
Mike Avey, owner of Joe Maxx Coffee in the downtown, says that while he's been to earlier festivals, this is the first year he's had a booth. Seeing the quality of work from vendors prompted him to join in.
"They've always had great artisans and a lot of great food," Avey said. "The grounds of the commons here on campus are just beautiful and it all makes it a great place to spend a Saturday or Sunday for a lot of people."
Vendors from out of state also began arriving this morning. Among them are Sheri Anderton-Yardell, owner of Moonrise Porcelain and Stonework in Franklin, Pa. Her artwork, mostly vases and dishes, incorporates whales and amphibians.
"I would say that everything I produce is unique. I try to get a rich, textural surface by using vintage crochets and then layering it with glazes over a period of days," she said.
While she won't be returning next year, she adds, because she's decided to work out of her shop back home, participating in the Summer Festival of the Arts has been a good experience.
"This is my 36th year doing shows, so after this I want to focus on my galleries," she said. "Already all of the organizations for the show have been very pleasant and cooperative. Even the setup has been very easy."

Ex-Boyfriend Arrested In Garbage Bag Murder
A Brooklyn teen whose body was found stuffed in a black garbage bag over the weekend, has been identified.
According to investigators, 17-year-old Jamia Hazel was stabbed to death and wrapped in black garbage bags, before being dumped in an alley of a Mount Eden home on Walton Avenue. Her remains were discovered Saturday.
Authorities have since arrested her ex-boyfriend, Darrell Spencer, 23, and charged him with murder after receiving a tip.
21-year-old Erena Williams, who was later identified as the one who tipped off investigators, was also arrested and charged with hindering prosecution. Police said she helped dispose of the body.
According to reports, the victim had a history of running away from home.Copyright © 2014, The Morning Call

Jinga All the Way
One thing that never ceases to impress me about having this website is how easily it shrinks the world. Readers find me (and in many cases, e-mail me) from all corners of the globe, and I've had the pleasure of learning about people, places, and businesses that I would have gone through life completely oblivious to in another era. The world has become not only flat, but more easily familiar than at any point in history.
Considering this, I probably shouldn't have been as bewildered as I was to receive an envelope with "Royal Air" postmarks on it this week. Nevertheless, I wasn't exactly expecting anything, so curiosity got the best of me.
After opening the envelope, curiosity turned to delight: it was a Christmas card from Jinga, a Brazilian company whose shoes I reviewed last month as part of my barefoot series.
In that post, I described how part of Jinga's mission is to support one of Rio de Janeiro's many favelas, projects that provide educational and social support to a portion of the city's staggering population of impoverished children. The company's Christmas cards are works of art made by children from the favela.
My card was made and signed by an 11-year-old girl named Fabiana. It was nice coincidence, as I happen to have an 11-year-old of my own.
The cards have folds and a flap that can be shaped into an ornament, so that's exactly what I did. And now, alongside all the wonderful family memories on our tree, a young Brazilian girl has provided a welcome dose of holiday cheer:
Obrigado, Fabiana. Feliz Natal. And God's peace and blessings to all of us.
Update: shortly after writing this post, I went to Jinga's Facebook page and found a link to the following video showing the favela kids making the ornaments. My girl Fabiana is shown at the :59 and 1:22 marks. Enjoy!

This is very strange. It started today.
My mom phoned me on my cell phone because she said our home phone was ringing off the hook. I thought my toddler had turned off the "answer" on our phone system. He didn't.
We have a cordless system with 3 handsets because we don't have jacks in every room.
Each cordless phone has a dial tone and I am able to make outgoing calls. However, when I called our home number from my cell phone, all I heard was a phone ringing, but nothing was happening on the cordless.
I then repeated the test with a corded phone. Same thing.
Then I went outside to our Verizon phone box and tested with the corded phone. Same thing.
Finally, I walked over to our neighbor and tested the corded phone there, with my cell phone, to make sure it rings and actually receives incoming calls. Hallejuah, my corded phone was working at my next door neighbor's house.
So what does this mean? Is there a line problem inside our house or outside?
Anyone else experience anything similar?
Hi rermarcar
Perhaps a tech could help you sort this out. You can reach Verizon through one of the options on this page:
Are you able to successfully make calls on the outgoing portion of the line, and is the line clear of noise? It sounds like it may be trouble with the line card as something similar happened to me years ago. I was able to get it replaced very early in the morning since a neighbor of mine is a field tech for Verizon.
Yes, we had a similar problem that would occur following a rain storm. Apparently water caused a short in the line outside our house and we were able to call out but no one could call us (they would either get static or a busy signal). Also, our DSL worked fine.
In a bizarre twist, the static generated by the short apparently called 911 and the police showed up banging on our door last Friday night. I had to explain to a skeptical looking cop that our phone was not working due to water in the line and that Verizon was schedule to fix it the following Thursday ... and that I had no control over it randomly calling 911. The police must have contacted Verizon because a field tech was at our house bright and early on Monday and fixed the problem.

The Application of Main Component Analysis Method on Indicators of Romanian National Authority for Consumers Protection Activities
AbstractThe National Authority for Consumers Protection, Romania (NACP Romania) is the institution which records various trends from one development region to another as well as from one county to another. The indicators of NACP Romania activities are firmly correlated with other important macroeconomic indicators, even at the level of Romanian counties, hypothesis verified by the authors in a previous research. (Stefanescu & Gabor, 2008) The paper tests the hypothesis that in the last decade there have been numerous structural changes regarding the economic indicators at county level and we will analyze the evolution of these structural changes in two different periods, respectively year 2000 and 2006, and especially the clustering of Romanian counties, taking into account the macroeconomic indicators and those recorded by NACP Romania, using a descriptive method of data analysis, the principal component analysis (PCA). By applying the PCA method, we can obtain useful information for NACP that, according to its specific tasks, cooperates with local government authorities regarding the development of consumer education strategy and the organization of control activities. In this regard, depending on the level of economic development of each county, the consumption characteristics of the population, the earnings level, as well as the GDP per capita, the NACP can develop differentiated strategies, adapted to the features of each county.

Utaune Nami sketch uvu
1. A song that makes me happy
~1/6 - Utaune Nami (Original by Miku Hatsune)~
~Someday, I'll break the chain of gravity
And take you to the satellite
Looking for you in the town
I wondered about the night street
Your voice on the phone made me nervous for some reason
When I found you, your eyes were red
Don't pretend nothing has happened
I just can't leave you sinking in a dark swamp
Someday, I'll release the chain of gravity
And the satellite will fly around space
Your weight will be 1/6 there
If I could lighten your sorrow,
I'd want nothing else
Someday, I'll take you there out of the gravity
I can't afford a space travel now
But I'll take you higher, physically
I've thought about it, and decided the red tower on the port.
I tried pretending the I've been running, to hide my rapid heartbeat
Today, I'll claim right to pull your hands
Just like an orbit elevator,
Our satellite is rising above clouds
Here 300m higher, you might be lighter than you were.
It's nothing but a cheap trick,
But you knows what I mean, I hope so
I want to take you somewhere above the earth,
Out of the gravity
My feelings are sometimes transparent;
Probably,you've known them
But still, I want to save you for the sake of my egoism
The Sun gives it's light,
To let the Moon glow;
Can you let me help you like them ?
Someday, I'll break the chain of gravity
And take you to the satellite
Every sorrow and sadness will be 1/6 there
Space ships are still far beyound us,
But till I reach them
Can you hold my left hand ?
Someday, I'll take you there out of the gravity
Out of the gravity~
