Day 1 Bangkok
Today is arrival day so there are no activities planned. You are free to relax, explore the city & adjust to the frantic pace and humid heat of Bangkok. Please arrive at our start point hotel before 6pm for an important group meeting where you will meet you Chief Experience Officer (CEO) and the other group members. Please look for a sign on the hotel's notice board for the time and location of your group meeting. At this meeting your CEO will ask to sight your travel insurance, check that you have a visas for Vietnam and complete some other paper work. Please note that you MUST arrive on tour with your Vietnam visa. Please refer to the visa information section of these trip notes for more information on obtaining your Vietnamese visa. After your meeting, you may choose to head out for an optional dinner to further get to know your CEO and fellow group members. We spend this evening in Bangkok. Our hotel is located in China Town, next to the central train station and MRT (Subway), and is only a short taxi ride from Khao San road and the central shopping area of Siam Square, MBK, Siam Paragon, etc. All rooms are double or twin share with air conditioning and en suite bathroom. The hotel has a small pool and free wifi.
Day 2 Bangkok (1B)
Enjoy a one-hour long tail boat tour of Bangkok's famous klongs, or canals. Our boat trip finishes at the Royal Temple of Wat Po. Our included guide will introduce you to Thai Buddhist culture and show you the famous reclining Buddha. When your guided tour ends there will still be time for some afternoon shopping, a visit to Grand Palace or a stroll through the backpacker area. We will meet back at the hotel within easy walking distance to the train station where we board our overnight train to Chiang Mai. Tonight's accommodation is an overnight sleeper train. Beds are dormitory style, with bunks on two layers along the side of the train carriage. There are curtains along each bunk for privacy. Your luggage will be accessible during the journey. The train has air-conditioning and clean bedding is provided for each bunk. There are both western style and asian style toilets at the end of each carriage. Food and drinks are served on the train but you can always bring your own food from the shops and restaurants in the train station. Please note: Due to disruptions of Thai trains in the north during the monsoon season, trips running July through October may be upgraded to a flight and extra hotel night in Bangkok. Approx travel time: Overnight train from Bangkok to Chiang Mai: 12-13 hours.
Day 3 Chiang Mai
We arrive in the early morning and have free time to explore for the rest of the day. To fill your free time you can chose from a large range of optional activities or stroll the city independently. Surrounded by rolling hills, Chiang Mai is the cultural center of Thailand. Enclosed by a moat and crumbling walls, the old city features great cafes, shops and over 300 temples. Many visitors come here to attend cooking courses, massage classes or yoga lessons. It is also a mecca of handicraft production, with a long history of silverwork, woodcarving, pottery-making and weaving. A trip out to the countryside is available for those interested in riding elephants or cruising down a stream on a bamboo raft. The fun does not end when the sun goes down, as the night bazaaar opens. The bazaar is a series of covered markets, shops and stalls that offer the best selection of handicrafts in Thailand. Late afternoon we set off to visit the temple complex, Doi Suthep. Here we can delve deeper into Thai Buddhist culture and we may be fortunate enough to witness the chanting of the monks. We overnight in Chiang Mai. Our hotel is well located within walking distance to Chiang Mai Night Bazaar and other city destinations. All rooms are double or twin share with air conditioning and en suite bathroom. Free wifi is available. Approx travel time: Private transport Chang Mai to Doi Suthep temple: 45 mins each way.

A 5 hour bus drive takes us to Chiang Khong where our guesthouse affords spectacular views of the Mekong River. Enroute we can visit Wat Rong Khun - the dazzling White Temple. Wander the local food market or sit back and enjoy the slow pace of life as we spend our last evening in Thailand peering across the Mekong into Laos. We spend one night in Chiang Khong, a small border town which is a part of the trade route between Laos and Thailand. Free wifi is available in the lobby at no charge. All rooms are double or twin share with air conditioning and en suite bathroom. Approx travel time: Private transport Chiang Mai to Chiang Kong: 5 hours
Day 5 Mekong River
We cross the river border today to Laos by small local boats to Ban Houay Xai and Lao Immigration. Once we have completed the immigration process we take a songthaew (local bus) to our traditional slow boat. As we travel down the Mekong River you slowly adjust to the relaxed pace of life in Laos. A predominantly mountainous country, we have unsurpassable views of the riverside villages, the tropical jungle and the mountains. Our private boat is reasonably comfortable and spacious. A toilet is available on board. Fruits, tea and coffee, are provided free of charge for you to enjoy and other drinks, such as water and soft drinks are all available for purchase on the boat. It can be quite cold from November to February so make sure you have some warm gear packed. We overnight in Pak Beng village, a stopover for local traders heading to Luang Prabang. As for tourists, the town offers an interesting vibe and good introduction to Laos. Our guesthouse is located some 500 meters from the pier. All rooms are double or twin share with air conditioning and en suite bathrooms. Approx travel time: Songthaew hotel to border: 10 min Songthaew to boat: 10 min Chiang Kong to Pak Beng: 8-10 hours depending on river conditions
Days 6-8 Luang Prabang (3B,1D)
On day 6, we approach Luang Prabang in the late afternoon. Before arriving, we will make a stop outside of town at the Pak Ou caves. This dramatic cave houses thousands of Buddha statues and images and is considered an important spiritual sight by many Lao people. After our visit, we re-board the boat and continue to Luang Prabang, arriving around 5pm. Located at the confluence of the Nam Khan and Mekong Rivers, Luang Prabang is without a doubt the most charming city in Laos and one of the loveliest towns in the whole of South East Asia. The center of the UNESCO world heritage listed town is quite small and is accessible either on foot or by bicycle. You can visit the most impressive of Luang Prabang's 32 temples including Vat Vixoun, Vat Sene, and Vat Xiengthong. Why not pack a picnic to eat on Phousi Hill and watch the sun set over the horizon or rise at dawn to watch the monks walk through the city collecting offerings of food from the locals. Take an afternoon to browse the many textile galleries and relax and enjoy a local coffee in on of the town's cafes. We take a tour of the Ethnology Museum- a great chance to learn more about the dress and customs of the local people. We also make a half-day trip out to the stunning Kuang Si waterfalls. Don't forget your swimsuit. During our stay, we will enjoy a traditional Lao meal experience in a local home partaking in a traditional Buddhist ceremony and enjoying some Laos delicacies. We overnight three nights in Luang Prabang. Our hotel is centrally located within walking distance to Luang Prabang Night Market. All rooms are double or twin share with air conditioning and en suite bathroom. Free wifi is available. Approx travel time: Pak Beng to Luang Prabang: 8-10 hours depending on river conditions

Vang Vieng is a great place to explore the countryside by bicycle or kicking back and relaxing by the river.

Free wifi is available. Approx travel time: Private transport Luang Prabang to Vang Vieng: 7 hours on a winding mountain road

Opt to visit the highlights of Vientiane including Wat Sisaket, one of the city's oldest and most fascinating temples and Phat That Luang, Lao's national symbol and one of her most sacred sites. For those who like to shop, don't miss the Morning Market, which, incidentally, is open all day! Our hotel is centrally located within walking distance of all the town's main sights. All hotel rooms are double or twin share with air conditioning, safe deposit box, and en suite bathrooms. Free wifi is available. Approx travel time: Private transport Vang Vieng to Vientiane: 3-4 hours
Days 12-13 Hanoi (2B)

On day 13 we visit the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, his Presidential Palace and House on Stilts. The Mausoleum houses the embalmed body of Ho Chi Minh, the founding father of unified Vietnam. Please note: the mausoleum and museum are closed for refurbishment from October-November each year. During the afternoon, your time is free to explore this beautiful city. Visit the Tran Quoc Pagoda, the Temple of Literature, the Museum of Ethnology or just take a walk through Hanoi's Old Quarter – a virtual maze of fascinating streets, each one traditionally devoted to a different product or industry. Late afternoon or early evening, we attend a performance of Vietnam's famous water puppets before sampling one of Hanoi's amazing eating venues. Ask your CEO to tell you more about the local Northern delicacies. We spend two nights in Hanoi. Our hotel is located in the Old Quarter. All rooms are double or twin share with air conditioning and en suite bathroom. Free wifi is available at the lobby. Approx travel time: Flight Vientiane to Ha Noi: 1.5 hours. Transfer from airport to hotel: 45 mins There is an opportunity to exchange money or use an ATM at the airport Please note: As this is a combination trip, some of your tour members many depart in Hanoi and you may be joined by some new traveling companions on Day 13.
Days 14-15 Halong Bay/Hanoi (2B,2L,1D)
On day 14, we have private transport to Bai Chay harbour, our entry point to Halong Bay. Thousands of islands rise dramatically from the waters of Halong Bay and, to further their beauty, intricate cave systems naturally exist throughout these limestone karst formations. Our sailing junk will take you to visit some of the islands and caves. You could enjoy an evening drink on the deck beneath the stars. Our accommodation tonight is a truly special experience – sleeping on a boat surrounded by high limestone karsts. All cabins are double or twin share with air conditioning and en suite bathroom. On day 15, after an early lunch on board the boat we head back to Hanoi. You have time to do some last minute shopping. The sleeper trains throughout Vietnam are quite comfortable.

The train is air conditioned and has squat and Western style toilets with a wash basin at the end of each compartment. Bags can be stored in your cabin and accessed at anytime. Food and drinks are available for purchase on board. This is not to everyone's taste, so we recommend you bring your own.

Day 16 Hue
We arrive early on day 4 into Hue, once the imperial capital of Vietnam. After checking in to our hotel, we start our day with a visit to the wonderful Tien Mu Pagoda. Built over 400 years ago, and at seven stories high, Tien Mu is still the tallest and perhaps the most elegant pagoda in Vietnam. We then visit a tomb of one of Vietnam's former emperors. These tombs are extremely ornate and embrace the concept of Feng Shui. Afterwards, you may choose to enjoy a vegetarian lunch at a local nunnery and there are various options to head out by bike to explore the local countryside. Please ask your CEO for more information. In the evening, take the chance to try some local Hue specialties such as banh khoai (Hue savoury pancakes), and banh bot loc boc tom thit (thin rice paper filled with meat and shrimp). You might want to wash it all down with a Hue beer. Yum! Our accommodation tonight is centrally located in the main street of Hue. All rooms are double or twin share with air conditioning and en suite bathroom. A swimming pool and wifi are also available.

In the late morning we begin our drive to Hoi An. After crossing over the Hai Van Pass, with fantastic views in all directions, we will stop at Lang Co Beach, arriving in Hoi An in the afternoon for our three night stay. Enjoy a tasty cooking class with oodles of noodles (more than 26 types!). Run by Planeterra Foundation partners STREETS International, the class was developed exclusively for G Adventures. Former street youths that are part of this hospitality training program will help you prepare and cook a number of different types of noodles.

White potato earns NH honor as official vegetable
CONCORD - The humble white potato is about to become the state's official vegetable.
The Senate Thursday approved House Bill 535, which makes the white potato the state vegetable. The House approved the bill on a 276-75 vote earlier this year.
The bill had its genesis at the Derry Village School, where students researched the origins of the white potato in North America and found it was first planted in a field near the school in 1719, in what was known then as Nutfield.
According to the bill's prime sponsor, Rep. John O'Connor, R-Derry, the Rev. James MacGregor of Northern Ireland came to America with a bag of seeds and planted them in Derry.
Virginia had claimed the title of first state to plant potatoes in North America, but recently conceded that New Hampshire holds the distinction.
After the vote, Gov. Maggie Hassan said she would sign the bill.

But for the most part I agree with you.
We've competed very closely in all our games except the Texans and Titans. Texans game is somewhat understandable, and not nearly as bad of a beatdown as most people think it was. Titans game was straight up a fiasco and inexcusable. And was a beatdown! Not scoring an offensive TD in the Bills game is shameful.
If you ever want to see a rainbow, you've got to stand a little rain.
As ridiculous as the premise of this thread is, I eagerly await watching Dan Carpenter get his walking papers.
against us you got the benefot of a ton of alls that even got the game to OT
The Sea call was not a good one.
Either way you are 5-7.
I always try to be honest, there are time we engage in some trask talk but and it may seem like I am picking on Miami but outside of those threads I try to be as honest as possible. when you were 4-3 I said you shouldn't get ahead of yourselves w/ the playoff talk and at 5-7 I don't think the sky is falling.
A loser's season is not complete until this thread comes up. Every losing team gets this "if only" thread at some point.
He has missed 6 all season and 3 came in that game, so what. Oh, and one of those was from 66 yards!
And we haven't got "the benefit of a ton of calls" in any game this year. The Seattle personal foul was the closest thing. It was the correct call, and after all the BS calls that have gone against us this year, I'll talk it all day long.
Haven't watched Henne a full game - but the highlights I've seen look decent...he looks lighter, quicker feet, more enthusiastic/energetic. He also has two up and coming stud WR's IMO.
Damn it, we better not lose to the Jags!

Answer: As air is moving through your heating and cooling system, Honeywell TrueCLEAN deactivates 99% of captured particles like airborne dust, pollen, smoke, mold spores and other bacteria — making it dramatically more effective than single-room portable units, standard one-inch furnace filters, and practically all other whole-house air cleaning systems.

Reliable and eco-friendly
Answer: Yes however, please check with the manufacturer of the dishwasher before proceeding with the same.
Answer: Like other household appliances (hairdryers, mixers and electric fans), the Honeywell Electronic Air Cleaner, and any other high efficiency electronic air cleaner, will produce trace levels of ozone when they are running.
In extensive testing of electronic air cleaners performance both in test chambers and in actual homes, under normal operating conditions, ozone levels measured are in the range of .005 to .020 parts per million (PPM), well below indoor safety levels set by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
For outdoor air, levels above .120 are considered excessively stressing to people with a respiratory illness or who are sensitive to ozone. In general, levels below .080 are considered acceptable for outdoors, but these levels are often exceeded in some urban areas.
The FDA sets a level of .050 with a 24 hour a day exposure as the maximum indoor ozone concentration acceptable
An electronic air cleaner can be expected to add about .005 PPM ozone to the steady state indoor level.
As the electronic air cleaner loads with dirt, the level of ozone produced further decreases
Odor perception for ozone varies quite a bit among people. Some people can smell levels as low as .003 PPM, but most people can smell a level of .020 PPM, which is well below the FDA standard.
The smell of ozone is does not necessarily indicate that the level of ozone is above normal, or even near the recommended limit set by the FDA.
Answer: Push the up or down arrow buttons on the thermostat to check the temperature that the thermostat has been set to.
Answer: Your Electronic Air Cleaner can be converted to a Media Air Cleaner. To do this the Electronic Air Cleaner's power supply must be removed or permanently disabled by a licensed HVAC service person. This is to prevent any possible fire hazard.
Simply unplugging the Electronic Air Cleaner is not good enough because someone could come in behind you and plug it back in.
After the power supply has been disabled, the metal cells in your air cleaner can be replaced with 4 inch thick media filters of the appropriate dimensions. Honeywell recommends either the FC100 or the FC200 Media Air Filter can be used by sliding the Media Filter Cartridge in to the same place the Cells were.
The efficiency of your air cleaner will be reduced after being converted to the level of the Media Filters being used. The Media Filters will need to be replaced on a regular basis. Honeywell's recommendation is to replace Media Filters every 6 months, more frequently if needed. Replacement Media Filters can be purchased from the HVAC service person or Heating and Cooling Contractor that converts your Electronic Air Cleaner to a Media Air Cleaner.
Answer: Honeywell's Electronic Air Cleaners should only be serviced or replaced by a qualified Heating and Cooling Contractor. Honeywell's Electronic Air Cleaners contain high voltage, which can be dangerous. There is risk of an electric shock, which can cause injury and or death, as well as damage to the equipment.
Improper service, installation of incorrect replacement parts, and/or incorrect installation of the correct replacement parts may compromise the operation of the Electronic Air Cleaner, and also the ability of the heating and cooling system to work properly. Servicing of the Electronic Air Cleaner by any person other than a qualified Heating and Cooling Contractor can void the warranty on the product.
Due to liability reasons Honeywell Customer Care can not provide technical support for this device to a customer who is not a qualified Heating and Cooling Contractor.
Answer: The air cleaner can not "dust" a home, but it will remove most dust particles that make it to the air cleaner. The particles that do not make it to the cold air return will settle out on flat surfaces and will need to be removed by hand. The reason these particles settle on a surface is due to their weight. These large particles will begin to appear white because they are no longer being stained by the smaller particles. The smaller staining particles (5 microns or smaller) stay continuously suspended and thus make it to the cold air return.
Answer: No, the post filters for the F300 cannot be cleaned. They have to be replaced.
Answer: The neon light should be on whenever the system's blower fan is on. When the system fan shuts off, the neon light should also shut off. If this is not happening, please follow these troubleshooting steps:
Make sure the electronic cells are clean, dry and properly installed. Make sure that the prefilter is in the cabinet slot farthest from the furnace.
With the access door closed, turn on the Electronic Air Cleaner and the system blower fan. If neon light is on, the Electronic Air Cleaner is working. If the neon light is off, turn the Electronic Air Cleaner off and remove cells only (not the prefilter), then close the access door and turn on the Electronic Air Cleaner (fan should still be on). If the neon light does not come on, contact your contractor for repair.
If the neon light comes on, inspect the cells for bent collector plates, broken ionizer wires, dirt on insulators, and damaged ionizer or collector contact tabs. Bent collector plates can be carefully straightened and broken ionizer wires should be replaced. All other repairs should be undertaken by your local heating and cooling contractor.
Answer: The presence of "white dust" is actually an indicator that your Electronic Air Cleaner is working properly. The Electronic Air Cleaner can only filter the particles that are passing through your system's duct work. The staining particulate is generally lighter, and more able to be drawn through the return registers in your home, leaving the heavier, non-staining particulate behind. This heavier, non-staining particulate settles out of the air and is left behind on your furniture: because it is more visible, it may appear as though there is actually more dust in your home than there was prior to installing the air cleaner.
To ensure that more particulate is able to reach the Electronic Air Cleaner to be filtered, you should make sure that the return registers are clean and not blocked by furniture.
Answer: The situation that you describe is probably interference. There are two types of interference that can cause problems with TV or radio stations. They are Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) and Line Interference (Line Noise).
Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) results from radio waves created by electrical equipment. These waves radiate outward in all directions and can be picked up by household electrical wires that act as antennas.
An Electronic Air Cleaner can only create enough RFI to affect a television, intercom, or a small radio when it arcs. The Federal Communications Commission regulates all products that could create RFI. All of Honeywell's Electronic Air Cleaners conform to FCC Part 15 Class B as well as Canadian EMI Standards.
If the problem is constant, and the air cleaner is not constantly arcing, then the problem is Line Interference.
Line Interference (Line Noise) can occur anytime an electrical circuit is made or broken. Fluctuations in an electrical load can also cause Line Interference.
Answer: It is normal to hear occasional snapping from your Electronic Air Cleaner. This occurs when larger particles are caught by the ionizer wires. Continuous snapping is not normal however, and should be investigated as outlined below:
Please note that the metal electronic cells may have some sharp edges; use care when handling the cells. Wear gloves to protect your hands from being cut if needed.
Remove both electronic cells. Make sure that there is no hair, dirt, sand or any debris on the bottom inside the Electronic air cleaner. If there is, remove what you can by hand. If a lot of debris is left in bottom of the Air Cleaner, you may want to use a vacuum attachment to see if you can vacuum up what you can. Do not vacuum the Pre-filter or Post filter this may damage it.
Close the access door, and then turn on the Electronic Air Cleaner and the system fan. If the snapping continues with the cells removed, contact your heating and cooling contractor for service on the unit and turn off the Electronic Air Cleaner's power.
If snapping does not continue, make sure the electronic cells are clean, dry and properly installed. Inspect the electronic cells for bent collector plates, broken wires between the plates, dirt on the insulators, and damaged collector contact tabs located on the top of the cells.
Make sure the pre-filters are in good condition and are in the cabinet slot farthest from the furnace (The order of the Electronic Air Cleaner Filters are from the return duct to the furnace is: Pre-Filter, electronic cell, and then Post filter, if your Electronic Air Cleaner has one). If the snapping persists and you are unable to locate any physical cause, please contact your heating and cooling contractor for service on the unit and turn off power to the Electronic Air Cleaner.
Answer: Honeywell's Clean Coil Guarantee states that Honeywell will guarantee that your evaporative cooling coil will remain free of dust and debris for 10 years following the date of installation of your Electronic Air Cleaner provided that:
The Electronic Air Cleaner has been installed and maintained properly, according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
The electronic air cleaner was installed on a new HVAC system.
If the Electronic Air Cleaner was not installed on a newly installed evaporative coil, the evaporative coil was cleaned at the time of or prior to installation of the Electronic Air Cleaner. (Honeywell will ask for proof of cleaning in form of a copy of service or sales receipt.)
If your coil requires cleaning within 10 years of the installation of Honeywell's Electronic Air Cleaner, Honeywell will pay 50% of the cost to have the coil professionally cleaned by a qualified heating/cooling contractor, up to $100.00 U.S. Dollars.
If it is necessary to file a claim for coverage under the Clean Coil Guarantee, you will need to provide full documentation of the date of installation of the Electronic Air Cleaner, as well as documentation of the date of installation of the system or the cleaning of the evaporative coil.
Answer: Ozone (O3), a 3-atom form of oxygen, is a normal trace element in the earth's atmosphere. Ozone is a different chemical than common oxygen (O2) which supports life on our planet. Like many substances, ozone is beneficial to life and to man, but can also be harmful in excessive concentrations. Ozone is created naturally by the action of the sun on oxygen; it also is created by man as a byproduct of processes such as combustion, power generation and operation of common appliances such as some sun lamps, copy machines or electric hair dryers.

Southwestern Community College held its monthly board meeting June 11, and on the agenda was a boardmember's resignation, new computer servers, hazard mitigation and an affirmative action plan.
Board members
After Cindy Cox of Bedford resigned from SWCC board of directors effective June 1, a board committee, consisting of boardmembers Ken Rech, Dennis Davis and Tony Cass, was appointed. The committee appointed former boardmember Jan DeMott of Bedford to fill Cox's position.
Cox resigned after deciding to move to South Dakota.
DeMott represented District 7 and served on the board from 1987 to 2010, when she resigned.
Susan Lane resigned from SWCC board of directors effective June 11. A board committee consisting of Rech, Davis and Jerry Smith was appointed to find a replacement within 30 days of her resignation.
Teresa Krejci, chief financial officer, brought to the board installation of new computer servers.
"We have about seven or eight servers in this building. It's very small and crowded," said Krejci. "We've always been concerned about it."
Krejci said the servers project has been needing work, and the idea of virtualization of servers came up. Virtualization of servers means you have the ability to operate several servers on one machine, rather than having more machines. A second location of servers in the nursing building will be set up also for disaster recovery.
"We've had trouble with temperature control in that area, and right now our servers are getting older," said Krejci.
The new servers and installation will cost approximately $150,000. SWCC will also save money on air-conditioning because temperature control will be easier with fewer machines in the room, and with machines that are newer and don't work as hard as an older machine.
Hazard mitigation
Boardmembers adopted the hazard mitigation plan of 2013-17.
"We had meetings to go over situations that we wanted to do mitigation work, like with FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) money for different projects," said Tom Lesan, vice president of economic development.
Lesan said SWCC was asked specifically to participate because the college currently has policies in place that allow SWCC to be a backup area in case of emergency for Green Valley State Park and Greater Regional Medical Center. By participating more actively, the college is able to apply for FEMA grants, which gives 85 percent of a total amount, and the college pays 15 percent, for different projects to improve student and faculty safety during natural disasters.
FEMA grants are used for things like storm shelters and safe rooms, such as the ones being built at Creston Elementary, Middle and High schools, which are being built on FEMA grants.
Affirmative action plan
Every two years, SWCC adopts an affirmative action plan, which has a goal the college must meet in order to promote diversity among students and staff.
"It has our current practices, current policies in there," said Krejci. "It has some information about our student population and our workforce."
Krejci said the population currently has a large number of females, but a low number of minorities.
In other SWCC board news:
• Habitat for Humanity and SWCC are teaming up to build another house, located at 600 W. Montgomery St.
• SWCC's facilities levy will be on the ballot in September, again. This is a continuation of the current tax that goes to repairs and renovations of the campuses in Creston, Osceola and Red Oak.

Ted Ligety continued his record of being on the podium in each World Cup Giant Slalom this season with third place in Garmisch. The HEAD World Cup Rebel had to fight hard to keep the record going as the differing snow conditions caused problems on the first run especially. Alexis Pinturault won the race ahead of Marcel Hirscher with Ligety in third place.
Ligety admitted after the race that the snow conditions had made things difficult for him on the first run. Having made a few small mistakes on the hill that he won the World Championship Giant Slalom on in 2011, Ligety was in the unusual position of fifth place after the first run. When the snow conditions are like this, Ligety admits that he does not have the confidence to go full speed. "If they could have set the course last night and then slid the course, this would have made things much better," Ligety explained, "I made a ton of little mistakes the whole way down."
"It was tough snow condition wise," Ligety explained, "it was crumbly, it was hard to have a good feeling on your skis and you were trying to run all your ski on to the flats as clean as possible. You have to take some risks and I went on to my hip. Luckily I was able to keep the skis in the fall line and I did not get into too much soft snow but that is how it goes in ski racing."
Ligety has a busy programme in the run in to the end of the season. With the Olympics fast approaching, Ligety is making use of training time by flying to Sochi for three days before racing at Kvitfjell.
With one eye on the Giant Slalom World Cup points, Ligety, while pleased with the third place, would have preferred first run leader Felix Neureuther to have won as it would have meant he only lost 10 points rather than the 20 Hirscher closed in by. "GS is going amazing this year. Third place is not what I want to be getting right now as my GS is going so well but I will take it, it is not so bad," Ligety reflected.

2. Marcel Hirscher (AUT)

Discover Charles Peale Polk's painting of George Washington.
Girl Scouts (both individuals and troops) have the opportunity to earn a signature Virginia Historical Society patch by completing three activities.
Activity One: Story of Virginia History Box Stations
The Girl Scouts will circulate through the Story of Virginia, stopping at six stations throughout the exhibition. Each station will feature one of the society's Hands-On History Boxes, with replica artifacts that the scouts will use to learn more about girls' and women's lives during each period of Virginia's history. The Girl Scouts will collect stickers in their "History Box Passport" as they pass by each station. All six stickers must be collected to complete the activity.
Activity Two: Primary Source Program
During this activity, Girl Scouts will review and analyze letters, diaries, and photographs relating both to the women introduced in activity one and to the history of Girl Scouts in Virginia. Among the materials included in this activity are Girl Scouting scrapbooks from the early 1900s, and photographs of Richmond City Girl Scout troops from the 1920s.
Activity Three: Patch Day Game Show
The culmination of the Patch Day will be a game show in which the girls will form teams and will be challenged to recall the people, places, and events introduced in the first two activities. Girls on the winning team will be rewarded with VHS History Bags, containing bookmarks, pencils, and replica arrowheads.
Please register for this event by contacting Caroline Legros, school program coordinator, at 804.342.9652 or at email@example.com.
If you have a group of 30 or more girls, please ask us about additional available dates.

Where I live, winter temperatures are often in the single digits. Whether your area is colder or warmer, keeping warm is a basic need that we all share.
I've posted some tips—from both Almanac editors and readers—about how to stay warm. These aren't "big" projects like buying a new heating system—just inexpensive, resourceful ways to help you warm up now!
1. Dress in layers.
Bundle up. Wear long underwear, sweaters, and even hats indoors. Remember the days of "sleeping caps"? They make sense when so much heat escapes from the head.
To avoid getting overheated inside, wear layers. I recommend a "wicking" polyester (or silk) undershirt next to your skin versus cotton. I gave a polyester t-shirt to my father and he keeps talking about the amazing difference as if I had invented sliced bread!
One reader adds, "I can't imagine surviving cold weather, inside or out, without a stretchy fleece neck warmer. I have several and I put one on when watching television or reading to avoid turning up the thermostat. Just think about summertime when you are feeling too hot - if you can, you try to cool down by opening your collar. We are using the reverse of that principle here."
2. Keep Your Feet Warm
I highly recommend "house slippers" indoors. I know that it sounds a bit old-fashioned, but having the rubber sole really makes a difference.
One reader adds, "I'm from Florida. But when it's cold, like when we got down to 23 last week, socks are my best friends. A soft, cozy pair worn to bed keeps my feet toasty warm, and as long as my feet are warm, I'm comfortable with the thermostat turned down."
"Keep changing your socks! Everybody forgets that your feet sweat, and THAT can make you cold even though you are layered up."
For the outdoors, it really helps to insert foam liners in your boots or hiking shoes to give your toes an extra layer of insulation.
3. Heat Up Your Bed
Don't turn up the heat for the entire house. Use an electric blanket. An even cheaper and safer option may be a hot water bottle with a wool or fleece cover. Here's what other readers say:
"Fill your bottle with hot water from the faucet before going to bed and slip it into the foot of the bed between the sheets. By the time you're ready for bed it's all nice and toasty at your feet. Believe it or not the water bottle stays warm all night long."
"Use rice! Put the rice in a fleece cover--then warm in the microwave. It will stay warm half the night and keep your toes comfortable."
"I have a water bottle, but better and quicker is to use a large heating pad with an automatic shut-off. Mine shuts off after 30 minutes. I lay the heating pad in the bed and turn it on about 15 minutes before retiring. I turn it off and then on again if I still need a little more heat but it is usually adequate just turning it on once."
4. Harness the Sun
During the day, open the blinds and curtains on the south-facing windows—and let the Sun warm you. At night, close the blinds and curtains to better insulate your home.
One reader adds, "We use roller blinds every night for all windows. Save a lot of energy in a cheap and easy way."
5. Keep the Kitchen Cozy
Many readers keep the kitchen humming!
"I put a cast iron pot of water with liquid potpourri on the top of our cast iron stove. This increases the humidity in the room and puts a lovely smell in the air."
"Drink lots of yummy hot chocolate!!!!"
"Bake something in the oven, either dinner or a dessert (doesn't have to be fattening but even better if it is)."
"A hot cup of tea is great....if you are sick, a hot toddy works wonders. Also, I always have a crock pot of soup going during the cold months."
6. Block Drafts
Beyond weather-stripping, which is difficult with old houses, consider these reader tips:
"I hang blankets to close off the open stair well going to the second floor, since heat raises it keeps the warm air down stairs when we spend most of our time. I noticed it saves a lot of heating dollars."
"Don't forget to put something at the bottom of outside doors--you can just feel the cold air pour in. You can buy a fancy roll or just use a blanket or towel."
"I made long round pillows to place against my doors and window sills. I found some scrap pieces of upholstery fabric that are nice and heavy and help keep the drafts out."
"Just like layers of clothing, I put layers at the windows. Between the window and the thermal-backed drapes are the closed venetian blinds and a flannel-backed table cloth. And we hung a blanket over the entire exterior door cause air doesn't just come in at the bottom."
7. Stay Active
Get your body moving. At the Almanac, we joke that "one log can heat a house." Just run up the stairs with the log, throw it out the top window, and repeat three times. You'll be warm!
Our readers add:
"Keep active, this is a good time to clean out closets, garages, etc. Anything to keep active."
"If I get a chill just sitting I get up and stir around, the movement not only warms me up but also stirs the heat in the house. Children are great when playing, they stir the air around."
"Don't just sit around. Stay active to keep ur blood from 'thickinin.' Exercise is good for ya."
8. Humidify Your Home
Not only does a humidifier keep your house warmer but also it eliminates drying indoor air. As our readers say:
"I discovered that when I run my vaporizer (humidifier) in the bedroom, I can turn the heat down a couple extra degrees overnight. In the morning, I raise the heat by about 2 degrees at a time instead of making the furnace work hard to raise it it all at once."
"I keep coffee cans lined with large baggies with water in them, around the vents to add humidity to the house, and this works great. I lined the coffee cans so they would not rust."
"I put a waterbath canner full of water on the stove (lasts all night)."
If you don't have a humidifier, here's another idea: When you take a bath in winter, leave the water in the tub after you get out. If you let it sit until it reaches room temperature, it will add a little warmth to the house and help humidify it!
9. More Ideas
Here's a new one! "I live five miles from the Canadian border in the St Lawrence region--icebox country! To stay warm INEXPENSIVELY, recycle old panty hose that has runs or snags. That layer next to the bottom and legs and toes, with slacks over keeps me toasty. For guys like Joe Namath too!!"
All, I hope that these tips help—please add any more suggestions on how to get and stay warm. Just "submit" your comment below.

Alright, so you may be wondering what that little minus is by your name when you view a thread. Well, click it and VOILA! That post is now shrunk.
For something extra cool, go to your control panel, then go to Edit Options. You will see something called, "Contract posts you already read?"
If you choose yes, the boards will attempt to remember what posts you have already seen. If a post is contracted, then click the plus by the user name is VOILA the post is back.
I know for a fact that this works in Internet Explorer, however, I am not sure if this works well in AOL. And I know for a fact that Netcrap... I mean, Netscape, doesn't work with this neat feature.
I'm not sure if everyone likes this, but I thought it was pretty cool. LOL

Internet sensation (and DJ, model, designer and singer-songwriter) Jeffree Star is captured in at his most glamorous in this museum-quality giclée print by legendary L.A. artist and photographer Austin Young. With a body of work that challenges conceptions of gender, beauty, and their nexus, the "pin-up," Young's photos are not only provocative, they push the boundaries of acceptance. One of an edition of 100, this fine art print is numbered and signed by the artist.
Unframed. Austin Young is one of three members of the Los Angeles-based public art collective, Fallen Fruit.
