How do you prepare mushroom pepper fry? I wanted it to be crispy, but the mushroom itself was generating lot of water. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Seasoned Advice is a question and answer site for professional and amateur chefs. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Mushrooms typically release water if they are overcooked and also if salt is added too early in the cooking process.
When cooking mushrooms, cook them on a relatively high heat until they have just developed some colour. at the end of the cooking process add your seasoning.
also- don't crowd them. put them in your hot pan, in a single layer, with space inbetween the mushrooms.
let them sit a while, then stir them up a bit, then let them sit a while, then stir a bit.

Music fans the world around will be affected by his flood struggles, too: After having to leave his downtown building earlier this year to make way for a convention center, Chambers brought the priceless treasures that populated the Hall to the SoundCheck Nashville, a building that was all but submerged in the flood. Instruments played by the likes of Pete Townshend, Jimi Hendrix and Johnny Cash are among those treasures. Click HERE to read more, watch below to see some of the items, and to hear Chambers talk about their importance.

AREVA's 5-megawatt (MW) offshore wind turbine is efficient, reliable and powerful, and specifically designed for large-scale offshore wind parks.
AREVA designs, manufactures, assembles and commissions 5MW high-output turbines for offshore power generation. AREVA's unique design results in a relatively low weight-per-megawatt, which simplifies transport and erection---crucial logistic and cost factors when working on the open sea. Corrosion prevention through a patented air treatment system ensures that the generator is protected from harsh sea conditions.
AREVA's turbine is also a proven, bankable technology, as demonstrated by the recent 11-bank financing secured for the Borkum West II offshore wind farm located in the North Sea. This €400 million project for Trianel, an association of German urban electric utilities, will supply 200 MWs of clean energy generated from 40 of AREVA's 5 MW turbines.
Building from our offshore wind project experience and more than 800-megawatt manufacturing pipeline in Europe, AREVA is prepared to be a major domestic supplier to the emerging North American offshore wind market.
Powerful and specifically designed for offshore use, the M5000 wind turbine was selected to equip the first wind farm deployed for widespread use along the German coast, in the North Sea (Alpha Ventus project). The six M5000 turbines intended for this wind farm were installed in summer 2009. They entered into service in November of the same year.
Today, offshore wind farm operators require strong partners offering large turbines with enhanced reliability, proven track record, high-performance and cost-effective design for higher water depths and greater distance to shore.
Find out how AREVA is helping utilities to make offshore wind projects successful.
AREVA's proven project experience ensures successful installation, even in challenging sea environments with high water depth and remote locations.
AREVA is helping build the offshore wind industry in North America. Let's discuss what we can build with you.

Day 1 Naples
Welcome to Naples, home to the best pizza of the world. As your fellow travellers are arriving throughout the day, there are no planned activities until your group meeting at 6pm this evening, so check-in to the hotel (check-in time is approx 3pm) and enjoy the city. Please make every effort to arrive in time for this important meeting. If you are delayed and will arrive late, please inform the hotel or us directly- contact numbers are provided in these notes. Your Chief Experience Officer (CEO) will then leave you a message at the front desk informing you of where and when to meet up. Why not join your Chief Experience Officer (CEO) after the welcome meeting at an optional group dinner to eat the dish Naples is famous for—pizza! After dinner, your CEO will point out a few local points of interest to help orient you in Naples and get a better feel for the city.
Day 2-7 Furore/Amalfi Coast (6B,1L,6D)
Today we head off by private transport to our accommodation, an agriturismo just outside of Furore. En route we will visit the famed site of Pompeii, at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, near Naples. One of Italy's best-known sites, this unique visit is truly an amazing experience. After our guided tour with an expert local guide, there will be some free time to explore on your own before heading to our accommodation. For the duration of our trip we stay at the same agriturismo. Located in a tiny village just outside of Furore, our accommodation was formerly a 16th century monastery - the friendly and hospitable staff are unsurpassed. The monastery is surrounded by colourful gardens, open terraces and endless staircases leading out to lemon tree groves and grape vines. Enjoy your meals in an open-air dining area that overlooks the crystalline waters of the Mediterranean Sea. During the trip, we will enjoy a real treat for our Local Living experience. Before dinner, our local hosts will show us how to make a delicious specialty to traditional regional recipes, using local produce. Indeed, depending of course on the season, you may well be selecting and picking part of your own dinner from the vegetable patch and orchards before cooking it! This activity will be available three nights before dinner and will vary from 20 min to an hour, depending on what time we finish each days' activities and the seasonal availability of ingredients. Estimated Travel Time: 1hr to Pompeii and 1hr Pompeii to Furore
Day 8 Naples (1B)
Enjoy the first of several hikes in this beautiful area of Italy. The bustle of the Amalfi Coast is only a few miles away as the crow flies, but away from the throng we have the chance to savour the quieter surroundings. We will take the "Valle dei Mulini" route for approximately 1.5 hrs up and along a path and some stairs towards the beautiful Valle delle Ferriere National Park. The route goes up alongside the Rio Canneto, then there is a possible rest stop with picnic table by the river. After a picnic lunch, we will turn around and retrace our steps downhill to Amalfi. Please note that there are many steps on most of the walking trails in the region, including all of the pathways we use on this tour. Approximate Hiking time: 3hrs
Included activities and day trips
We set off early to the lovely hilltop town of Ravello. Transfer to Amalfi where the walk begins, then reach the narrow streets of the tiny coastal village of Atrani. Continue along a paved road with traffic and partially up stone steps. The walk is uphill and steep but delightful. Ravello is famous for the beauty of its situation, perched high above the azure Mediterranean with stunning views in all directions, and for its musical associations. The scenery here inspired many poets, artists and musicians, most prominent amongst them Wagner. Enjoy free time to visit the gardens of historic Villa Rufolo, check out the cathedral, or shop for (and sample!) local specialties like limoncello or olive oil. After the walk and some free time, return back to our agriturismo home via private transfer. Estimated Walking Time: 2.5 hours
Optional activities
Today's hike takes us to the mountain slopes of Mount Tre Calli. We begin from Bomerano and hike uphill through woodland and then open slopes with magnificent glimpses down to the sparkling Mediterranean sea. The first half of the walk varies between walking along a paved road, a dirt road and going up and down steps. The second—and most challenging— half is up on the side of the mountain, with steep uphills, big steps, and is mostly on rocks. Getting down the mountain can be very steep and sometimes slippery. As with all of our hikes, today's hike is optional but you are rewarded with stunning views throughout. Estimated Walking Time: 5 hours
Making your stay seamless
Today is a free day for you to enjoy more sites of your choice along the Amalfi Coast. Perhaps a visit to the famous resort islands of Capri or Ischia, with their stunning scenery, entices you. There is a regular boat service from Amalfi to Capri and it is a very pleasant and popular day trip. We also have details of more beautiful walks in the area if you would like to do another day's hiking. Amalfi's famous historic cathedral should not be missed, or simply hit the beach for some R&R. A day spa is located close to our Local Living home if you would like to pamper yourself on your free day.

It's easy to overlook things which are right on your doorstep, so this summer why not see what your home county of Hampshire has to offer for a fun-filled family day out. The county has a vast number of visitor attractions, including a rich variety of museums, galleries and country parks.
If it's the great outdoors that you and your family enjoy most then Hampshire certainly has that in abundance. With 3,000 miles of footpaths, 750 miles of cycle paths and 465 miles of bridleways to explore, the county's idyllic scenery is just waiting to be enjoyed.
The New Forest National Park boasts acres of open countryside, where ponies and cattle roam free. The South Downs National Park stretches from Winchester to beyond Petersfield, featuring dramatic rolling hills and far-reaching views. The North Wessex Downs area, home to chalk river valleys and the famous Watership Down, is also a hidden delight.
Walking or cycling in the fresh air alongside Hampshire's rivers and canals is the perfect way to unwind and to keep fit. The clear chalk rivers of the Test, Meon and Itchen are some of the purest and prettiest in the country, and offer unrivalled fishing.
For nature lovers, there's also Gilbert White's House and Garden in Selborne or the Hawk Conservancy Trust near Andover, with over 150 birds of prey. Nearby Whitchurch is home to the UK's only working silk mill, while the Blackwater Valley Path offers an attractive river-walk through Rushmoor.
Meanwhile, if all things historical are your passion then you can visit the ruins of the medieval Bishop's Waltham Palace which was once used by the Bishops and senior clergy of Winchester as they travelled through their diocese. Buckler's Hard in the New Forest was once a centre for shipbuilding and its Maritime Museum recounts the story of the village and surrounding area. Nearby Beaulieu is home to the museum of a different form of transport – the National Motor Museum. Medieval Winchester houses one of England's oldest almshouses, the Hospital of St Cross, as well as King Arthur's celebrated Round Table which can be found in the County Council's historic Great Hall.
Hampshire also has a selection of historic houses and gardens to enjoy, such as Mottisfont Abbey, with its famous rose garden, and Basingstoke's Basing House and The Vyne, which may have served as a literary inspiration to Tolkien. This year, Hampshire proudly celebrates the 200th anniversary of Jane Austen's literary classic, Pride and Prejudice, and you can visit her family home and museum at Chawton near Alton.
Travelling into Hampshire's countryside takes you to villages which offer traditional tea rooms and welcoming pubs. The Georgian town of Alresford is the UK's capital for watercress and one of the stops on the Watercress Line, a preserved heritage steam railway which enthrals adults and children alike. Medieval Romsey, sitting on one of the finest trout rivers in Europe, has a choice of shops and restaurants and the historic Abbey to enjoy. Stockbridge is also a popular foodie destination, home to the annual Trout and About food festival.
Hampshire's annual events are firm favourites. The Hampshire Food Festival in July offers tempting Hampshire fare, including locally sourced trout, watercress and cheeses. From the New Forest and Hampshire County Show to the Romsey Show and Alresford's Watercress Festival there is something for everyone.
If you're looking for a great family day out this summer, why not visit one of the following attractions where one child goes free with every paying adult.*
Manor Farm is a delightful mix of woodland, riverside and open space which was the setting for the popular BBC2 Wartime Farm series. Meet the many interesting costumed characters living on the farm and have a close encounter with the friendly farm animals.
With a farm full of friendly animals, the south coast's largest ornamental glasshouses, beautiful gardens and 1,000 acres of country park to explore,there's something for everyone at Staunton Country Park.

Thanks, Khaled & Kirsten!
You can see more of BER on Instagram.
Disapproved of by Bill at 9:33 AM
Get up you lazy bum and fix this rabbit some breakfast! Can't you see his blood sugar has dropped to disapproving levels?
Holy smokes!! That looks just like my Nutmeg!
Below disapproving levels, you mean!
From "The Rules of Disapproval":
The smaller the bun, the bigger the 'tude.
"Where's my breakfast?! Don't these hoomins learn ANYTHING in school? They seem to spend a lot of time there, and come out of it just as stoopid as they went in, but BIGGER as well! *THUMP!* "
I think BER is right. The hoomin school syllabus should ditch history and "media studies" and other such "subjects" - at least until such time as the small hoomins have thoroughly learnt and understood
The Three "R"s :
What a priceless expression. I bet he is just tons of fun to serve.
OMGoodness! BER, your slaves are so dedicated to you! I wish ALL bunnies could have that kind of wonderful life. You are an International Bunn of Disapproval and so freakin' cute, I could snorgle the floof off ya!
Wow, I checked out InstaBER...er, Instagram and those are some awesome pictures of this Super Bunny!
OMGoodness, BER!! I can see you have a lot to keep you busy; just look at that delicious carpet runner! It's just begging to be shredded!
Oh oh ... trubble. Let's see how I can wiggle out of it this time ...
BER would be happy to "tuck us in" for a "dirt nap". She'll even prepare the grave, er, "bed" for us. It's no trouble at all, she'd be glad to do it!
I was really impressed with Bun E. Rabbit.
intersting how we all go googly eyed over a bun who is intent on putting us six feet under?xx Rachel

Archaeological Site of Panamá Viejo and Historic District of Panamá
Archaeological Site of Panamá Viejo and Historic District of Panamá
Founded in 1519 by the conquistador Pedrarías Dávila, Panamá Viejo is the oldest European settlement on the Pacific coast of the Americas. It was laid out on a rectilinear grid and marks the transference from Europe of the idea of a planned town. Abandoned in the mid-17th century, it was replaced by a 'new town' (the 'Historic District'), which has also preserved its original street plan, its architecture and an unusual mixture of Spanish, French and early American styles. The Salón Bolívar was the venue for the unsuccessful attempt made by El Libertador in 1826 to establish a multinational continental congress.

Son plan en damier témoigne de la conception européenne de ville planifiée. Abandonnée au milieu du XVIIe siècle, elle fut remplacée par une ville nouvelle, le « District historique », qui a conservé intact le tracé de ses rues ; l'architecture est un mélange insolite de styles espagnol, français et américain ancien. Le Salón Bolivar a été le théâtre de la tentative infructueuse du Libertador qui voulait créer en 1826 un congrès continental multinational.

Археологические памятники Панамы-Вьехо (Старой Панамы) и историческая часть города Панама
Панама-Вьехо – это старейшее европейское поселение на тихоокеанском побережье Америки, основанное в 1519 г. конкистадором Педрариасом Давила. Город имел планировку в виде прямоугольной сетки, что отразило произошедший в Европе переход к идее планируемого города. Оставленный в середине XVII в., он был заменен «Новым городом» (историческим районом), который также сохранил первоначальный план улиц, архитектуру и необычную смесь разных стилей – испанского, французского и нарождающегося американского. Салон Боливара – место, где в 1826 г. этот освободитель бывших испанских колоний (El Libertador) предпринял безуспешную попытку созвать объединяющий их континентальный конгресс.

Archeologisch gebied Panamá Viejo en historisch district Panamá
Panamá Viejo – in 1519 gesticht door de conquistador Pedrarias Dávila – is de oudste Europese nederzetting van Zuid-Amerika aan de kust van de Stille Oceaan. Het werd gebouwd volgens een rechthoekig patroon en markeert de overname van de Europese manier van stadsplanning. Halverwege de 17e eeuw werd de stad verlaten en vervangen door een 'nieuwe stad' (het 'historisch district'). Hiervan zijn het oorspronkelijke stratenplan, de architectuur en ongewone mix van Spaanse, Franse en vroege Amerikaanse stijlen intact gebleven. In het district bevindt zich de Salón Bolívar; de plek waar visionair Simón Bolivar in 1826 een niet-succesvolle poging deed een Pan-Amerikaans congres op te richten.

Outstanding Universal Value
Brief synthesis
Panama City, the oldest continuously occupied European settlement in the Pacific coast of the Americas, was founded in 1519, as a consequence of the discovery by the Spanish of the South Sea in 1513. The archaeological remains of the original settlement (known today as the Archaeological Site of Panamá Viejo) include the Pre-Columbian vestiges of the Cuevan aboriginal occupation of the same name, and currently encompass a protected heritage site covering 32 ha. The settlement was a first rank colonial outpost and seat of a Royal Court of Justice during the 16th and 17th centuries when Panama consolidated its position as an intercontinental hub. Its growth in importance, as it profited from the imperial bullion lifeline, is reflected by the imposing stone architecture of its public and religious buildings.
During its 152 years of existence, the town was affected by slave rebellion, fire and an earthquake, but was destroyed in the wake of a devastating pirate attack in 1671. Since it was relocated and never rebuilt, Panamá Viejo preserves its original layout, a slightly irregular, somewhat rudimentary grid with blocks of various sizes. There is archaeological evidence of the original street pattern and the location of domestic, religious and civic structures. The site is an exceptional testimony of colonial town planning; the ruins of its cathedral, convents and public buildings showcase unique technological and stylistic characteristics of its temporal and cultural context. It also offers invaluable information on a variety of aspects of social life, economy, communications and the vulnerability of a strategic site within the geopolitical dynamics at the height of Spanish imperial power.
In 1673 the city was moved some 7.5 km southeast, to a small peninsula at the foot of Ancón hill, closer to the islands that were used as the port and near the mouth of a river that eventually became the entrance of the Panama Canal. The relocated town, known today as Casco Antiguo or the Historic District of Panama, not only had better access to fresh water but could be fortified. The military engineers, moreover, took advantage of the morphological conditions that complemented the wall surrounding the peninsula, all of which prevented direct naval approaches by an enemy. The area within the walls had an orthogonal layout, with a central plaza and streets of different widths; outside the walls the suburb of Santa Ana had an irregular layout. There is a centrally-located main plaza (which was enlarged in the 19th century) and several smaller post-colonial plazas on the fringes. Most of the seaward walls of the colonial fortifications and parts of the landward bastions and moat survive. Several buildings within the District are identified as important for the country's 17th-20th century heritage. Most outstanding are the churches, above all the cathedral with its five aisles and timber roof; San Felipe Neri, San José, San Francisco and especially La Merced with its well-preserved colonial timber roof. The Presidential Palace originally built in the late 17th century and partially reconstructed in the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries, is a revealing example of the transformations that characterize the Historic District as a whole. The House of the Municipality, the Canal Museum building (originally the Grand Hotel), the National Theatre, the Ministry of Government and Justice and the Municipal Palace are outstanding buildings of a more recent period. There are several exceptional examples of domestic architecture from the colonial period, above all the mid-18th century Casa Góngora, and also several hundred houses from the mid-19th to the early 20th centuries that illustrate the transformation of living concepts from the colonial period to modern times. These include not only upper-class houses from the entire period, but also 2- to 5-floor apartment houses and wooden tenement buildings from the early 20th century erected to satisfy the requirements of a more stratified urban society
Particularly relevant is the Salón Bolivar, originally the Chapter Hall of the convent of San Francisco, which is the only surviving part of the 17th-18th century complex. The Salón Bolívar has special historical importance as the site of the visionary, but abortive attempt by Simon Bolivar in 1826 to establish what would have been the world's first multinational and continental congress.
The present-day appearance of the Historic District is marked by a unique blend of 19th- and early 20th century architecture inspired in late colonial, Caribbean, Gulf Coast, French and eclectic (mostly Neo-Renaissance) styles. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, building styles evolved significantly, but spatial principles were fundamentally preserved. The Historic District's layout, a complex grid with streets and blocks of different widths and sizes and fortifications inspired in late Renaissance treaties, is an exceptional and probably unique example of 17th-century colonial town planning in the Americas. These special qualities, which differentiate the Property from other colonial cities in Latin America and the Caribbean, resulted from the construction, first of a railroad (1850-55) and then a canal (1880-1914) that linked the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The construction of the canal, a landmark in the history the Americas and the world, had a tangible effect on the development of the Historic District and its surrounding area.
Criterion (ii): Panamá Viejo is an exceptional testimony of town planning of its period and culture. It exhibits an important interchange of human values since it bore great influence on subsequent developments in colonial Spanish town planning, even in areas vastly different in climate and setting. The Historic District's layout reflects the persistence and interchange of human values, which have been oriented towards interoceanic and intercontinental communications for several centuries at this strategic site on the Central American Isthmus.
Criterion (iv): In both Panamá Viejo and the Historic District, house and church types from the 16th to the 18th centuries represent a significant stage in the development of Spanish colonial society as a whole. Panamá Viejo is an exceptional example of the period's building technology and architecture. In the Historic District, surviving multiple-family houses from the 19th and early 20th centuries are original examples of how society reacted to new requirements, technological developments and influences brought about by post-colonial society and the building of the Panama Canal.
Criterion (vi): The ruins of Panamá Viejo are closely linked to the European discovery of the Pacific Ocean, the history of Spanish expansion in the Isthmus of Central America and in Andean South America, the African diaspora, the history of piracy and proxy war, the bullion lifeline to Europe, the spread of European culture in the region and the commerce network between the Americas and Europe. The Salón Bolívar is associated with Simón Bolívar´s visionary attempt in 1826 to establish a multinational congress in the Americas, preceding the Organization of American States and the United Nations.
The conditions of authenticity of both components of the Property —the Archaeological Site of Panamá Viejo and the Historic District of Panamá— have been maintained. Upon abandonment, the core area of Panamá Viejo was never rebuilt and retained its original street layout. No reconstructions of archaeological remains have been carried out and all conservation and intervention work amongst the ruins has been done in accordance with international standards. Within the boundaries of the protected heritage area there are a few modern structures, but these are clearly identified and differentiated from the archaeological remains.
The urban layout of the Historic District of Panama City may be considered to be entirely authentic, preserving its original form largely unchanged. The organically developed stock of buildings from the 18th to the 20th centuries has changed little over time. Most of the fabric of the buildings and fortifications, as well as the public spaces, is original. There is evidence that dressed stone and other building materials from the ruins of the Archaeological Site of Panamá Viejo were quarried and recycled to help rebuild the relocated settlement and for the construction of buildings and fortifications of the Historic District, thus providing a measure of material continuity between the two components of the Property. In some well documented cases, such as La Merced, entire church facades were reconstructed on the new site.
The property has maintained the street layout, structural volumetry and the urban scale. Many streets retain the brick paving characteristic of the early years of the 20th century. Although a certain level of gentrification has taken place, the traditional use has been largely preserved, with a mixture of residential, commercial, institutional and religious activities coexisting with non-traditional touristic and entertainment uses. Since the modern habilitation of interior spaces in the buildings can potentially compromise the essence of the site by replacing traditional structural systems with modern structural materials, clear guidelines need to be enforced in the implementation of restoration and rehabilitation projects for historic buildings.
Both components of the Property meet the conditions of integrity. As a Pre-Columbian and Historic Archaeological Site with both historic ruins and stratified contexts, Panamá Viejo includes all the elements necessary to convey the Outstanding Universal Value for which this component was included as an extension of the Historic District and Salón Bolívar's original inscription. The size of the protected area is consistent with the distribution of the relevant physical attributes, constituting a coherent and clearly defined whole. In 2012, the Via Cincuentenario was relocated from the core area of the site, generating a new border that will contain growth from the neighbouring communities. With the implementation of zoning regulations (Ministry of Housing Zoning regulation 2006) and a National Law (2007), a land and marine buffer zone that regulates the development of the neighbouring communities and the waterfront has been established to control the erosion of its borders.
The Historic District maintains, within its boundaries and those of the locally-protected adjacent area, a sufficient representation of all the attributes that convey Outstanding Universal Value, particularly the urban layout, the dimension and distribution of ground plots, the remaining colonial fortifications and non-residential buildings of monumental value. A great variety of residential building typologies is also present. In almost all cases, the volumetry, rhythm of facade openings and long, open balconies have withstood the substantial number of architectural interventions that have taken place since the 1997 inscription, most of which have adapted the inner distributions of houses and open places within the plots to current requisites of privacy and safety.
Development and significant conservation challenges are the most critical aspect threatening the integrity of the Historic District. To address threats, the legislative and regulatory framework needs to be enforced and comprehensive interventions implemented to reverse lack of maintenance of historic buildings.
Protection and management requirements
The Property enjoys diverse legislative and regulatory measures to ensure its protection and conservation. The original delimitation and conservation regulations for the areas of heritage protection date back to 1976 (Law 91/1976). This law recognizes and legally defines national culture and heritage. It was complemented by the National Heritage Law of 1982 (Law 14/1982), which created the National Heritage Directorate as part of the National Institute of Culture and became the State entity responsible for the protection and management of Panamá Viejo and the Historic District. An Advisory Commission was also created by this law. The heritage law provides for administrative sanctions for destroying heritage assets; fines were increased five-fold by a 2003 law (Law 58/2003). Moreover, the Penal Code was modified in 2007 to include jail sanctions for the criminal destruction of heritage assets (Law 14/2007).
Each component of the property has been provided with a management framework responding to its particularities within Panama City's urban dynamics and the administrative realities of a centralized State. Whereas Panamá Viejo is an uninhabited public land archaeological park surrounded by unregulated working class settlements, the Historic District is a living city centre with a mixture of residential and institutional functions presenting social and conservation challenges associated to processes of re-occupation and use of private and public property.
The management role of the National Institute of Culture over protected historic sites has been complemented and reinforced by private-sector philanthropy and the technical and administrative resources of other State institutions. In the case of Panamá Viejo, the Patronato Panamá Viejo, a mixed private-public non-profit organization with a legal mandate to administer central government subsidies and raise its own funds, supports site maintenance, architectural conservation and research projects.
In the case of the Historic District of Panamá, a 1997 law (Decree-Law 9/1997) established specific guidelines for architectural interventions and expanded protection to an adjacent area. It also provided for a series of fiscal incentives for restoration projects and reinforced the role of the Advisory Commission to make the process of heritage project approvals more efficient and transparent. More detailed regulations were passed (Executive Decree 51/2004), with guidelines incorporating zoning and infrastructural aspects as well as providing a conservation handbook with specific recommendations for architectural interventions and new construction. The protection and management roles of the National Institute of Culture were complemented by the creation of a new inter-institutional public organization: the Oficina del Casco Antiguo (OCA), which produced a Master Plan and assumed the role of inter-institutional coordination. A buffer zone was established around the peninsula where the Historic District stands. Construction and occupation permits and the corresponding taxes remain the responsibility of elected municipal authorities, yet the approval of architectural plans and documents for projects located within the Historic District remains the exclusive responsibility of the National Heritage Directorate. The formulation, implementation and periodic review of a comprehensive Heritage Management Plan will be required to ensure that conservation and management of both component parts occurs within a coordinated scheme.
Long Description
León Viejo is closely linked to the European discovery of the Pacific Ocean, Spanish expansion, the history of piracy and the bullion lifeline to Europe. The layout of the town illustrates an important interchange of human values and the buildings represent a significant stage in the development of colonial Spanish society.
The archaeological site of Panamá Viejo is the site of the oldest European town on the American mainland, founded in 1519. When the town was moved to a new location in 1673, the site was abandoned and never rebuilt. It retained its original streets and pattern of open spaces; it is now a public park where the impressive ruins of the cathedral, churches, water installations, town hall and private houses are preserved and well presented to the public.
Some of the older remains, dating to up to 1,000 years before the arrival of the Europeans, have been excavated and the finds are presented in the local museum.
The old town was founded in 1519 by Pedrarias d'Ávila. It soon became a commercial and administrative centre as well as an important port and the seat of a Royal Tribunal. Only the climate, being considered unhealthy, prevented the development of the town to the size and importance of Guatemala or Bogotá. The old town was destroyed by fire in 1672 and the new town, 8 km to the south-west replaced it a year later.
The site remained state property and only in 1949 was a new neighbourhood established at its northern fringes, not affecting the state of conservation of any visible or known remains.
Panama was the first European settlement on the Pacific coast of the Americas, in 1519, and the Historic District preserves intact a street pattern, together with a substantial number of early domestic buildings, which are exceptional testimony to the nature of this early settlement. The Salón Bolivar is of outstanding historical importance, as the venue for Simón Bolivar's visionary attempt in 1826 to create a Pan-American congress, more than a century before such institutions became a reality.Source: UNESCO/CLT/WHC
Historical Description
The first settlement to bear the name of Panamá (now Panamá Viejo) was founded in 1519 by the Spanish conquistador Pedrarias Dávila. It was the point of departure for the first explorations along the Pacific coast, which had been discovered in 1513 by Vasco Nunez de Balboa. There were originally some four hundred settlers in Panamá, living in some seventy huts. Many of these moved down to Peru when the conquest of that region was completed in 1532: there were only thirteen male Spanish settlers left in Panamá, with some five hundred Indians, by the following year.
However, Panamá eventually consolidated its key position on the transoceanic route between Spain and the Americas as the terminal on the Pacific coast (that on the Atlantic coast was first Nombre de Dios and then Portobello). Its importance is indicated by the fact that it became a Real Audiencia (Royal Court of Justice), the third to be created in the Americas (after Santo Domingo and Mexico City). The town, with its imposing monuments, was ravaged by the 1621 earthquake and then by fire in 1644, but it was not deserted by its inhabitants until 1671, when it was burnt by the privateer Henry Morgan, who had taken Portobello three years earlier.
The new settlement was built on a small peninsula nearby and provided with the fortifications that its predecessor had lacked. Dressed stone from Panamá Viejo was re-used: in some cases, such as La Merced, entire church facades were reconstructed on the new site. However, the 18th century saw a decline in the city's fortunes.. It lost its strategic significance when bullion from upper Perú began to be transported to Spain via the River Plate: the Real Audiencia was closed, and the Portobello fairs were cancelled. It was also badly damaged by fire in 1737, 1756, and 1781. By the time Panamá secured its independence from Spain in 1821 the population was only some five thousand. In 1826 El Libertador, Simon Bolivar, invited all the newly independent American nations to an Amphictyonic Congress in Panamá, and delegates from Peru, Colombia, Central America, and Mexico took part, along with representatives of the USA, Great Britain, and the Netherlands. It took place in the former chapter hall of the Franciscan monastery, which had been abandoned by the community in 1821 (it was to house the first Constitutional Assembly in 1904).
It enjoyed a short boom during the California Gold Rush, since many people preferred to travel to the isthmus and cross to Panamá so as to continue by ship to California rather than crossing the North American continent by railroad. By 1870 the population of the town had reached 10,000, and this had risen to 25,000 by the end of the 19th century. A watershed was reached in 1903, when Panamá gained its independence from Colombia and the USA took over the great canal project. The town expanded enormously, with the inevitable result that, since the more desirable properties were located in the outlying districts, the historic centre fell into a decline; by 1950 most of the houses were in multiple occupation. Nevertheless, the Historic District remained the seat of the Panamanian Government: the Presidency and several ministries are still there.Source: Advisory Body Evaluation

Elk County Conservation District officials approved revisions to their personnel policy during Monday night's regular meeting.
The new Conservation District employee handbook contains 21 additional pages of policies, an improvement to its past six-page handbook.
"One of the things Steve [Putt] was in charge to do when he came onboard here was to come up with a new personnel policy," said chairman Russ Braun. "Steve [Putt] and Diane [Myers] have been working very hard these past couple months getting it ready. Steve gave it to his sister to review, who is a human resource specialist, and she had some more suggestions so we went ahead and did it again.
"This is the final product. We got together to look it over and we are very confident that we have a good product here."
Many of the revisions focus on the introductory period for a new employee.
"Basically, the way it was, the introductory period was a six-month period, but the new employee would basically get all of the benefits on the first day of hire," said district manager Steve Putt. "What we are proposing now is a 60-day introductory period and the only benefits they would get is what would be required by law, for instance, worker's compensation and things like that."
Putt also discussed the changes made to compensation time policies.

Recycled Water Pack Shopping Tote
Roll over image to zoom in
Just in case you need a reminder to be conscious of product packaging while shopping, this innovative tote fits the bill beautifully by sending a subtle message about the global impact of plastic packaging and solid waste management. Stitched together from sturdy, recycled plastic water sachets, it's an opportunity to educate and inform about the dangers of widespread waste.
Finding value in seemingly valueless materials, the makers of these innovative bags pride themselves on low-energy recycling solutions for the countless drink packets discarded everywhere around Ghana. Due to its ubiquitous presence and indiscriminate disposal in the streets of Ghana, the plastic sachet is recognized regionally as a potent symbol of the solid waste problems faced by the nation. The millions of discarded plastic sachets that are collected by the Trashy Bags group are triple-washed, disinfected, then dried before being turned into durable and eye-catching bags.
- 100% recycled plastic drink containers
- Double strap handle
- Spacious single compartment
- 18.5" T x 15.5" W x 5" D (47 x 39.4 x 12.2 cm)
- Handmade in and fairly traded from Ghana

May 29, 2013 - Huge, durable and best of all made from trash. And even better the purchase goes to help those in need!!!
April 25, 2013 - These are fantastic and I'm back to order more. They are big and sturdy. Normally two of these is enough to carry all of my groceries. An added bonus is that I get a compliment nearly every time I carry these. People love them. So do I.
Artisan: Trashy Bags
"Every bag that we sell is an opportunity to educate the public about their environment and their responsibility to keep it clean for the good of humanity and of the planet's ecosystems as a whole."
Due to a rising population and an infrastructure that is inadequate to handle the waste that's produced, the nation of Ghana is struggling with issues concerning solid waste management, and as a result, streets, drains, and landfills are overflowing with trash. As is the case with most places in the world, much of this trash could be recycled, but isn't due to a general lack of education, recycling resources, and individual responsibility. One man, armed with a devoted team of over 60 workers, has set out to change this. Stuart A. Gold, a British citizen living in Ghana, is the director of Trashy Bags, an innovative company devoted to creating beautiful products out of what most people would consider garbage.
The company encourages the people of Ghana to collect the millions of discarded plastic sachets and other reusable packaging and bring them to Trashy Bag's facilities, where they are paid a fee per batch of materials. This allows people who would otherwise be out of a job to earn money, acts as a form of supplemental income for others, and encourages the people of Ghana to clean up the streets. Once the plastic is received it is washed three times, disinfected, dried, sorted, and eventually sewn into bags by the 60-plus full-time employees of Trashy Bags. Each finished bag is then packaged with an educational leaflet informing the public of the dangers of littering, and encouraging them to reduce, reuse, and recycle. The effects of cleaning the streets of Ghana are vital and far reaching -- in a country where malaria is still prevalent in poorer households, cleaning up clogged and dirty drains (breeding grounds for mosquitoes) -- is literally a life-saving practice.

- Independent
- The Enterprise
- The Recorder
Southern Maryland Newspapers will implement a paywall for its website beginning June 17, requiring readers to subscribe to one of its three community newspapers in order to view all of that publication's articles online.
Visitors to www.SoMdNews.com will be able to view three articles per month before being prompted to subscribe in order to see more online content. Articles that appear under the "Breaking News" header will not be covered by the paywall, and will remain accessible for free.
"In order to provide good, quality community journalism, you have to be able to pay for it. I think that the successful business model for the future for newspapers is a paid-content model," Publisher Karen Acton said. "You can't get all of your revenue from advertising from businesses. You have to be able to get it from the readers who are enjoying the content. So, we believe it's a modest amount of money to ask readers to contribute."
Current subscribers to the Maryland Independent, The Enterprise and The Calvert Recorder will be able to view their paper's online content after registering at the website, but they will not have free access to articles from the other two papers without an accompanying subscription.
"Our subscribers will be able to view it along with the print subscription that they already have, but others that are coming to our website, we need them to share in that cost so that we can continue to provide good, quality journalism for our communities," Acton said.
The company believes the increased revenue from the paywall "will actually allow us to provide additional content that right now we can't do, that we don't have enough resources to do," she said.
A longtime proponent of charging for online content, Acton said that the company has "been working on this for quite a while."
With an increasing number of newspapers moving to institute online paywalls, "right now seems to be the right time for our company to launch," she added.
Online visitors will be able to view any paid advertisements, classified and legal notices without a subscription, said Steve Headley, director of classified advertising. However, the paywall will apply to obituaries, he said.
Acton said that the paywall will allow the company to tailor coverage to its readers, and also provide advertisers with information on the readership's demographics and interests.
"Fortunately, community newspapers like we are have a very strong business model, and they provide something for our communities that they can't get anywhere else, so I feel fortunate to be in that business, and I think it's a very vital business," she said. "I think that our readers and our communities depend on us to give them the news that they aren't able to get anywhere else."
Those without a newspaper subscription may sign up for one at a 10 percent discount if they do so at www.SoMdNews.com. Those who sign up online for a $39.95 annual subscription to the Maryland Independent or The Enterprise will receive a $15 gas card, and those who pay for a $25.95 annual subscription to The Calvert Recorder will get a $10 gas card.
New subscribers will have the option to opt out of receiving a delivered paper each Wednesday and Friday.
