From the ancient rock art in Kakadu National Park and the traditional bark paintings of Arnhem Land to today's thriving art scene in Alice Springs, indigenous art is a big part of life all across the Territory. With creative and storytelling traditions dating back 40,000 years and these ancient practices changing from region to region, the depth and diversity of Aboriginal art is a vivid reminder of the NT's rich cultural heritage.
The region is now home to a staggering number of galleries. See works on display, get an opportunity to meet the artists, and gain an insight into the traditions and processes handed down from generation to generation.
Over the last thirty years Aboriginal art has enjoyed an increasing profile across Australia and the globe. From traditional dot paintings that encompass the spiritual elements of the Dreamtime to modern styles that boast a mix of western and indigenous traditions, the Aboriginal art scene is a great way to explore and gain an understanding of the local culture.
Visit galleries in Darwin and Alice Springs to access the biggest displays of indigenous art. Most galleries will allow you to meet the artist and see them at work.
Visual styles, storytelling techniques and materials vary from the central and western desert regions to Arnhem Land and the Tiwi Islands, yet the study of the landscape and their indigenous ancestry is a common theme.
Bark is still widely used around the NT and is a popular medium amongst the artistic community in Arnhem Land, where travellers can visit during festival time to take part in art auctions and cultural activities.
Traditional designs also appear as decorative features on didgeridoos, boomerangs and other tribal instruments, which make great souvenirs from your trip to the territory. Also keep an eye out for hand-woven baskets, woodcarvings and jewellery.

Divine Sarah (Paperback)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Set over the course of one week in 1906, Divine Sarah reimagines the life of the legendary Sarah Bernhardt. Facing protests from the newly formed League of Decency, the controversial actress is forced to move her latest production from Los Angeles to the new development of Venice Beach. Though this battle is only the most recent skirmish in a tumultuous life, the sixty-two-year-old Sarah is exhausted and beginning to lose the will to fight.
Plagued by maladies of the flesh and the spirit, she begins to search her soul, revealing the truths of her life, including the self-doubt and insecurity hidden beneath an extravagant and confrontational lifestyle. Yet Sarah is not alone in her battle. Vince Baker, an ambitious news reporter, faces his own demons even as he tries to uncover the truth about the greatest actress of the Victorian Age.This P.S. edition features an extra 16 pages of insights into the book, including author interviews, recommended reading, and more.
About the Author
Adam Braver is the author of Divine Sarah and Mr. Lincoln's Wars. His work has appeared in Daedalus, Cimarron Review, Post Road, and Pittsburgh Quarterly. He teaches creative writing at Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island.

Luka Modric
"1st of all I didn't say u have to keep telling ian in every conversation he has been childish.
u could just point it out once when he says something childish."
If he says it in a conversation where my principles make me feel I should speak out, I will. If it's against an ABU troll, I have no reason to.
"I still think its a valid point."
It's a valid point, but it had nothing to do with the conversation that was going on at the time, and where you disliked what I was saying. It was like having a conversation about match fixing, and saying, "Unless you are doing something about Shell being involved in wiping out the Ogoni people in Kenya, you should get off your high horse." They're valid, serious causes, but not something to drag into any conversation where you don't like what someone's saying.
"why is it unsubstantiated? everyone with a brain on this board knew what I was on about & knew that we all support & fund child slavery."
It wasn't substantiated because you never explained why it was a valid point in that conversation, or in relation to me, to United, to football, or to racism in or out of football, and because you seemed unable to make any specific points relating to it. I was willing to have a conversation about it, and you refused. Frankly, you didn't seem to care about the slavery as anything other than a device to derail a conversation you weren't enjoying.
"it seems the in thing to speak up against racism but ignore homophobic problems in football."
The "in" thing? Have you seen the attacks that come the way of anyone who does so? You make it sound like it's something people only do to win points. I am also not happy about homophobia in football, and am looking forward to the first out gay footballer (because statistically, it's impossible there hasn't been one, just not one who felt able to be out), although they will get a lot of abuse. I've never once tried to shut down or avoid a discussion on homophobia, so why say I'm ignoring it?
"I hear far more homophobic chants and verbal abuse than racist ones."
Not surprising, there have been more active efforts to punish racism in the game than homophobia. I do agree it's of equal importance.
"my point about child slavery was to show how hypocritical u are being. u help support & fund child slavery which is mainly other non white races who suffer from it, yet u speak up against racist verbal abuse in our game."
Why should the races who are slaves matter? Also, I know that my money may well end up getting into the pockets of companies who use child slavery, and I try to avoid that (remember when I asked you which companies you knew of that used slavery, and for some reason you refused to do so), but how have I once "supported" child slavery? You accuse me of supporting them as if I've been defending the practice. That's dishonest and very insulting.
"I think a lot of people got annoyed with me for pointing out how we all gladly speak up against things we don't do, yet bury our head in the sand on issues we do nothing about."
No, I, at least, was annoyed that you were acting as if we were "sticking our heads in the sand", and came across as if you saw yourself as some brave free-thinker confronting us with our hypocrisy. It's a subject I care about, and oppose, but I had had no reason to talk about it on here, and you had no good reason to bring it up in the way you did.
"at least im honest & say I should be standing up & doing a lot more to stop things like child abuse & slave labour."
If that was what you'd said, I wouldn't have had a problem with it.

I'm trying to implement an old-school technique where a rendered background image AND preset depth information is used to occlude other objects in the scene.
So for instance if you have a picture of a room with some wires hanging from the ceiling in the foreground, these are given a shallow depth value in the depthmap, and when rendered correctly, allows the character to walk "behind" the wires but in front of other objects in the room.
So far I've tried creating a depth texture using:
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT, Image.GetWidth(), Image.GetHeight(), 0, GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, pixels);
Then just binding it to a quad and rendering that over the screen, but it doesnt write the depth values from the texture.
I've also tried:
glDrawPixels(Image.GetWidth(), Image.GetHeight(), GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, pixels);
But this slows down my framerate to about 0.25 fps...
I know that you can do this in a pixelshader by setting the gl_fragDepth to a value from the texture, but I wanted to know if I could achieve this with non-pixelshader enabled hardware?

In 1990, coaching legends Joe Gibbs, Chuck Knoll and Don Shula were still patrolling the sidelines, while other notable members of the profession included Mike Ditka, Jimmy Johnson, Bill Parcells and Dan Reeves, to name a few. There, were, however, some not-so-notable names leading NFL teams back then, just as is the case today. For every Hall of Fame head coach like a Gibbs or Shula there have been plenty of Rod Rusts and Cam Camerons.
Here's Athlon Sports' list of the worst NFL head coaching tenures since 1990:
20. Dave McGinnis, Arizona Cardinals (17-40, 2000-03)
The Good: McGinnis' coaching tenure in the NFL goes back to 1986, when he started as a linebackers coach for the Chicago Bears. He is currently an assistant head coach with the St. Louis Rams.
The Bad: His head coaching career got off to a rocky start, going 1-8 as interim head coach for Arizona in 2000 following the firing of Vince Tobin, who started the season 2-5.
The Ugly: After going 7-9 in 2001, his last two Cardinals teams went a combined 9-21 in 2002-03, finishing 29th or worse in points scored and points allowed in both seasons.
19. Scott Linehan, St. Louis Rams (11-25, 2006-08)
The Good: Started his head coaching career by going 8-8 in 2006. Offensive coordinator for Minnesota and Miami from 2002-05, has been in same capacity for Detroit since 2009.
The Bad: Things went downhill for him and the Rams after that 8-8 campaign in 2006. Opened the '07 season with eight straight losses.
The Ugly: Won just three of his final 20 games, fired after starting 2008 season 0-4. Lost eight in a row to end tenure in St. Louis, as his Rams were out-scored by 178 points (22.3 ppg).
18. Joe Bugel, Phoenix Cardinals (20-44, 1990-93)
The Good: Ended his tenure with the Cardinals on a high note, going 7-9 in 1993.
The Bad: Became offensive coordinator for Oakland Raiders in 1995 before getting another shot at head coach in 1997. Raiders went 4-12 that season, his last in the NFL.
The Ugly: Never finished higher than fourth in the division in any season as a head coach, his career winning percentage is just .300 (24-56).
17. Norv Turner, Oakland Raiders (9-23, 2004-05)
The Good: Has gone 114-122-1 (.483) overall in his 15 seasons as a head coach in the NFL, serving stints with Washington and San Diego in addition to Oakland. Was 56-40 in his six seasons leading the Chargers, which included three AFC West division titles. He has also been a successful offensive coordinator for several teams (Dallas, Miami, San Diego, San Francisco) and landed on his feet after getting fired by San Diego as Cleveland's new offensive coordinator under new Browns head coach Rob Chudzinksi.
The Bad: Teams seemed to consistently underachieve; his career playoff record is 4-4 with just one conference championship game appearance (AFC, 2007).
The Ugly: Won just nine games in two seasons in Oakland. The Raiders' rushing offense and defense ranked near the bottom of the league both seasons.
16. Dennis Erickson, San Francisco 49ers (9-23, 2003-04)
The Good: Overall NFL head coaching record is 40-56 (.417), as he went 31-33 in four seasons with Seattle (1995-98). He also has 179-96-1 career record as college head coach and won national championships at Miami in 1989 and '91.
The Bad: Never fully embraced by 49ers fans, who along with the media questioned his hiring in February 2003 as the replacement for the fired Steve Mariucci. Salary cap problems throughout the roster hampered his ability to build a winner.
The Ugly: The 49ers went 2-14 in 2004 with both wins coming in overtime. The team ranked 30th in scoring offense (16.2 ppg) and last in scoring defense (28.2 ppg).
15. David Shula, Cincinnati Bengals (19-52, 1992-96)
The Good: Don Shula's son went 7-9 in 1995.
The Bad: He followed that up with a 1-6 start in 1996, leading to his dismissal.
The Ugly: Has the second-lowest career winning percentage (.268) all-time among NFL head coaches (min. 50 career games).
14. Josh McDaniels, Denver Broncos (11-17, 2009-10)
The Good: Got his first head coach job at just 33 years old, won his first six games with Denver.
The Bad: Didn't exactly endear himself to fans when he traded then-quarterback Jay Cutler to Chicago less than three months after being named Broncos' head coach. Also traded up into the first round to select Florida quarterback Tim Tebow with the 25th overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft.
The Ugly: Won just five of his final 22 games, fired after starting 2010 season 3-9.
13. Dick MacPherson, New England Patriots (8-24, 1991-92)
The Good: Coached at UMass and Syracuse for a total of 17 seasons prior to the Patriots, posting a 111-73-5 mark. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2009.
The Bad: Didn't have as much success in the pros, winning just a quarter of his games in his two seasons in New England.
The Ugly: The 1992 Patriots lost nine in a row to open season and their final five to finish things out. Team scored less than 13 points per game, including zero points three different times.
12. Mike Mularkey, Jacksonville Jaguars (2-14, 2012)
The Good: Fared better as Buffalo's head coach from 2004-05, going 14-18.
The Bad: First Bills team went from 9-7 in 2004 to 5-11 in '05, losing eight of its last 10 games.
The Ugly: Didn't get much of a chance or much help of any kind in his one and only season in Jacksonville. Injuries decimated the Jaguars' offense, as the team struggled to score points (15.9 per game) all season and lost its final five games by an average of nearly 14 points per game.
11. Steve Spagnuolo, St. Louis Rams (10-38, 2009-11)
The Good: Spagnuolo was the defensive coordinator for the New York Giants from 2007-08 and is credited as the architect of the defensive strategy employed by the team in its Super Bowl XLII victory over the previously undefeated New England Patriots.
The Bad: Had four different losing streaks of six or more games during his three seasons with the Rams.
The Ugly: In between a 7-9 record in 2010, Spagnuolo's Rams won a total of three games (3-29) combined in the 2009 and '11 seasons. Following his dismissal from the Rams, Spagnuolo served as New Orleans' defensive coordinator in 2012, overseeing a defense that broke the NFL single-season record for most yards allowed.
10. Chris Palmer, Cleveland Browns (5-27, 1999-2000)
The Good: Hired as head coach of expansion Cleveland Browns upon their return to the NFL in 1999. He also has served as offensive coordinator for Jacksonville (1997-98), Houston (2002-04), and Tennessee (2012).
The Bad: Lost first seven games with the Browns, he also had a separate seven-game losing streak during 2000 season.
The Ugly: His Browns' offenses finished last in the NFL in both total and scoring offense in both seasons.
9. Art Shell, Oakland Raiders (2-14, 2006)
The Good: Played tackle for 15 seasons for Raiders (1968-82), earning eight Pro Bowl invites and first-team All-Pro honors twice. Inducted into the Hall of Fame as a player in 1989 also finished head coaching career for the Raiders franchise with winning record (56-52 overall).
The Bad: After six successful seasons as head coach for the Los Angeles Raiders from 1989-94, where he went 54-38, he made the wrong decision in choosing to come out of retirement to coach the Oakland Raiders in 2006.
The Ugly: His 2006 Raiders allowed a respectable 20.8 points per game, but scored nearly half as many (10.5 ppg), a big reason why they won just two games. The offense scored six or fewer points six times and were shutout completely on three different occasions.
8. Romeo Crennel, Kansas City Chiefs (4-15, 2011-12)
The Good: Has won five Super Bowl rings as an assistant coach with the New York Giants (1986, '90 seasons) and New England Patriots (2001, '03, '04), where he had the opportunity to work under Bill Parcells and Bill Belichick.
The Bad: His championship pedigree has never carried over to his head-coaching jobs. His overall record is 28-55 (.337), including 24-40 as Cleveland's head coach from 2005-08.
The Ugly: Only winning season came in 2007 when he led the Browns to 10-6 record, but they still missed the playoffs. Went 2-1 as Chiefs' interim head coach to close out 2011 and get him the full-time gig, but followed that up with 2-14 mark this past season. The Chiefs fired him on Dec. 31.
7. Marty Mornhinweg, Detroit Lions (5-27, 2001-02)
The Good: Been more successful as offensive coordinator for San Francisco 49ers (1997-2000) and Philadelphia Eagles (2006-12).
The Bad: First career win didn't come until 13th game, a 27-24 victory over Minnesota.
The Ugly: Won his five games by a combined total of 18 points. Biggest win was by five points (three times).
6. Lane Kiffin, Oakland Raiders (5-15, 2007-08)
The Good: Following his success as offensive coordinator at USC, was hired by Al Davis in January 2007. At the time, he was the youngest (31) head coach in Raiders franchise history and in the entire NFL since 1946. Landed back in the collegiate coaching ranks when he was named University of Tennessee's head coach in 2009. Left Tennessee after just one season to return to USC as the Trojans' head coach in 2010.
The Bad: Finished his first and only full season with the Raiders 2-10 after getting off to a 2-2 start. In college, he has established a pattern of running afoul of the NCAA and rubbing his peers the wrong way during his time at both Tennessee and USC.
The Ugly: Fired by Davis "for cause" just four games (Raiders went 1-3) into the 2008 season. His 2012 USC team, which was ranked No. 1 in just about every major preseason poll, stumbled to a 7-6 record, including a disappointing 21-7 loss to Georgia Tech in the Sun Bowl.
5. Rich Kotite, New York Jets (4-28, 1995-96)
The Good: Went 36-28 as Philadelphia Eagles head coach from 1991-94.
The Bad: Lost five games in 1995 by seven or fewer points.
The Ugly: Lost 12 in a row from 1995-96, lost seven games in '96 by 14 or more points.
4. Rod Marinelli, Detroit Lions (10-38, 2006-08)
The Good: After getting fired from Detroit, he joined Chicago as assistant head coach/defensive line in 2009 and became defensive coordinator the following season. The 2012 Bears defense finished first in the NFL in takeaways, third in scoring defense and fifth in total defense. Hired earlier this month as Dallas' defensive line coach under new Cowboys' defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin.
The Bad: His Lions' teams were out-scored by a total of 440 points in his three seasons, for an average of 9.2 per game.
The Ugly: Even though they went a perfect 4-0 in preseason play, the 2008 Lions went winless during the regular season, becoming the first NFL team in history to go 0-16.
3. Cam Cameron, Miami Dolphins (1-15, 2007)
The Good: Cameron enjoyed considerably more success as an offensive coordinator for both the San Diego Chargers (2002-06) and the Baltimore Ravens (2008-12). His Chargers' offenses from 2004-06 ranked in the top 10 in the NFL in total offense and top 5 in scoring offense.
The Bad: His lone coaching win came in the Dolphins' 14th game of the season, a 22-16 overtime win against a Ravens team that would finish with just five wins.
The Ugly: His Dolphins were out-scored by 170 points (437 to 267); the team averaged less than 99 yards rushing per game and allowed more than 153.
2. Rod Rust, New England Patriots (1-15, 1990)
The Good: Spent 14 seasons in the NFL as a defensive coordinator for Kansas City (1978-82, '88), New England (1983-87), Pittsburgh (1989), the New York Giants (1992), and Atlanta (1996)
The Bad: Won just one game in 1990, a 16-14 victory in Indianapolis.
The Ugly: His Patriots were out-scored by 265 points in 1990, an average of 16.6 points per game. Five losses were by 28 or more points.
1. Bobby Petrino, Atlanta Falcons (3-10, 2007)
The Good: Parlayed his success as the head coach at Louisville and his reputation as an offensive-minded coach into the Falcons' job in 2007.
The Bad: With only three seasons worth of NFL coaching experience prior to taking over the Falcons, including just one as an offensive coordinator (2001, Jacksonville), Petrino never seemed to be able to adjust to the pro game. Neither of the NFL offenses he was responsible for ranked higher than 20th in total or scoring offense in either of his two seasons.
The Ugly: Resigned just 13 games into the season, informing the team, his coaching staff and the players of the decision via a four-sentence statement printed on a piece of paper. He left the Falcons to go back to the college ranks, becoming Arkansas' new head coach, leading the Hogs to a 34-17 record in four seasons. He was fired by Arkansas this past April for cause after a motorcycle accident involving a female passenger revealed an adulterous affair and a string of poor decisions made by Petrino in hopes of keeping it secret.

Webinar Replay: The Courtroom Campaign (Video)
When led with a robust communications campaign, "impact litigation" can be an effective tool to address imbalances of power and influence public opinion.
During a recent Communications Network webinar, Adam Umhoefer and Felix Schein, two prinicipals involved in the fight to overturn California's Proposition 8, discussed the role a fully integrated communications campaign played in changing the public conversation about marriage equality. They also described how the public campaign helped lead to last June's historic Supreme Court ruling granting all couples the right to marry.

A theoretical study was performed on waveguiding characteristics of a special Ti:LiNbO3 structure that an array of strip waveguides is embedded in a planar waveguide. First, a special Ti:LiNbO3 structure was fabricated by diffusion of homogeneously coated Ti film at first and then photolithographically patterned Ti-strips with different widths of 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 μ m, and the transverse magnetic (TM) mode guided in the strip waveguides of the special structure was characterized by near-field measurements. Second, a 2-D refractive index profile is supposed for the special structure. Third, based upon this supposed index profile model and the experimentally determined mode field profile type, the mode sizes of the strip waveguides were calculated using variational method and compared with the experimental results to verify the validity of the index model supposed and the numerical method adopted. Finally, the mode sizes and effective indexes of several lowest order TM modes guided in the strip waveguides were calculated as a function of the initial Ti-strip width for different waveguide parameters that include the surface index increment and depth (width) of both the planar and strip waveguides. The numerical results show that the field profile in the width direction is influenced by many factors such as the initial Ti-strip width, waveguide width and depth, and the surface index increment of the strip waveguide. Instead, the mode field in the depth direction is only influenced by three factors that include the depth of strip waveguide and the surface index increments of both planar and strip waveguides. The single-mode condition depends on all of these parameters.

The Holy See maintains diplomatic relations with 180 states. Among those are countries that do not have diplomatic relations with each other. Iran is one of those cases. Both Canada and the US do not currently have formal diplomatic relations with Iran. The Holy See, however, has maintained diplomatic relations with all three of these nations, even receiving president Hassan Rouhani in audience this week.
President Rouhani's visit to the Vatican was the first time since 1999 that an Iranian president met with a pontiff. The Holy See has had formal diplomatic relations with Iran since 1957, through thick and thin. However, in 2010 then-president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad visited Rome for a UN meeting on the effect soaring food prices. In a break with protocol he did not visit the Vatican during his time in Rome. Reports at the time stated that the Vatican had canceled all meetings with heads of state in order to avoid giving the hard line Iranian president the publicity he was after. The relationship between the two nations survived that moment and the rest of Ahmadinejad's presidency.
The president received at the Vatican this week is different type of leader, facing unique challenges. Rouhani's visit was the first official Iranian visit to Europe in almost 20 years. His goal was quite simple: try to rebuild economic ties with potential EU trade partners. The stop at the Vatican was a protocol visit, but also an overdue visit to an old friend. Crux, the Catholic news site of the Boston Globe, reports that in 2007 when it seemed that tensions over Iran's nuclear program might lead to armed conflict with the U.S., Tehran turned to the Holy See as a potential mediator. While their motivation may be different, both parties want peace and stability in the middle east. Yet for all his goodwill, Rouhani faces challenges at home.
Despite his moderate leanings, some ruling bodies in Iran, including – according to some reports- security and intelligence forces, are still control by hard line groups who disagree with Rouhani. These groups override Rouhani's attempts at reform, cancelling cultural performances at the last second and banning books. At the same time Human Rights Watch reports that executions have increased in recent years and growing numbers of journalists, bloggers and social media activists are being arrested.

Located in Walla Walla's favorite neighborhood, the Juniper Guest House is like no other vacation rental. The house is just blocks from the downtown area, the beautiful Whitman College campus, and the famous John Olmsted designed, Pioneer Park. Step inside and take a look, you will not be disappointed.
The Juniper Guest House was built in 1909, the same year that Pioneer Park was opened to the public. This beautiful mission-style, arts and crafts home is the perfect place to stay, while you explore Walla Walla and the lush valley that surrounds it.
The house features four bedrooms, each showcasing queen sized beds with exquisite bedding, a dining room accommodating six, parlor including game table and desk, living room, full kitchen sporting island seating for four, and finally, three well appointed bathrooms (one with jetted tub), and large finished basement with wet-bar for entertaining and room for banquets.
Outside, you will find a gorgeous and beautifully outfitted front porch, a back deck for entertaining, and fully fenced yard.
Keywords: House
My name is John Sterlin. I was born and raised in Walla Walla Washington!
My husband and I chose to turn our future retirement home in to a vacation rental to help defer the costs of maintaining two residences. We opened a business on Main Street in Walla Walla so purchasing a house to stay in while we worked at our business seemed the right thing to do. We love Walla Walla and most of all, we love the house! The moment we walked in the front door we fell in love with the house just as we know you will!
We absolutely LOVE the front porch of this house. Every morning we have coffee while enjoying the beautiful street and every evening we sit and enjoy a glass or two of wonderful Walla Walla wine! The living room, parlor, and dinning rooms are all just beautiful with their un-touched arts and crafts style wood trim built-in seating. This house is our zen and it will be yours as well.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 5 night visit at this lovely home. The rooms were beautifully furnished and very comfortable. Downtown was close, plenty of good restaurants, and I was amazed at the number of wineries just a few minutes away.
The only downside was that my husband is handicapped. We stayed on the main floor, where most activities took place. However, to get there you had to go up a very narrow stairwell with about 7-8 stairs that were quite steep, with no handrail. We also had a clawfoot tub in the master bath which really needed grab bars to safely get in and out. There were walk-in showers downstairs and upstairs but that meant more stair climbing.
We had 9 family members that met up in Walla Walla, WA (halfwayish point between Portland and Boise). The 4 bedrooms and huge basement space made it comfortable for everyone to get a good night's sleep! There was a lovely, large living room, an eat-in kitchen, a small sunroom and wonderful backyard deck and grassy area for everyone to socialize, or not, as desired. Having the ability to have private spaces for down-time was key to a stress-free weekend. Having the full kitchen saved us lots of money we would have spent on restaurants. All in all one of the best family gatherings we've ever had! I would definitely recommend this place. It's the home I wish I had without the hassles of owning a large home ;)
The house exceeded our expectations. We had three couples, us and our two married children and their spouses. Each couple had a self-contained area (upper, main, lower), each with its own bathroom. The main floor is really great and beautifully furnished. The kitchen was perfect for group meal prep and hanging out and pretty well appointed. The various sitting areas indoors and out are great for conversation, reading, whatever. The front porch, a sanctuary. The ONLY drawback was the pillows, which were very bouncy and uncomfortable and the sheets, which we thought were polyester and also not comfortable. Otherwise, everything about the house and yard was flawless. The alley access and parking are an added bonus. This property is ideal for multiple couples and good sized families. Plenty of space; tasteful touches; and turn of the century charm. We loved it.
We spent 4 nights in this absolutely lovely 4 bedroom home in Walla Walla. The house is a short walk (12-15 min) to town through lovely tree lined streets with gorgeous homes to look at while you walk. Juniper House is full of vintage curios and furniture which adds to its charm. It has a wonderful front verandah just made for sipping Walla Walla wines in the evening or starting your day with a cup of coffee. It is a quiet neighbourhood and lends itself to great sleeps. We would highly recommend this place and will stay there again.
The house is everything as advertised and more. It is in a quiet neighborhood just 15 minutes walk to downtown. The furnishings and decorations are beautiful and comfortable. We would definitely rent this house again.
John and Vince have a great eye for detail. The home provides plenty of dishes and wine glasses. We were a party of 6 women for a wine tasting get away. There was enough beds for us to be comfortable. The sunroom was perfect for coffee in the morning. We lucked out with the weather on our last day. We got to enjoy the back patio table at dinner time. We will return again. Side note: we did end up driving our car into town both days because it's a mile away. But the walk would be beautiful.

van someone please ansa these question plz...
DUI / DWI Attorney
No. You cannot record another person without their consent.
Employment / Labor Attorney
It depends. If you are in a courtroom, typically recording will be prohibited. If you are having a conversation where there is an expectation of privacy, most likely you cannot legally make the recording. If you are in a public place talking with someone, and there is no expectation of privacy, it may not be considered illegal. It all depends on the specific circumstances.

Jayln Isaham had heard stories like these before: American Indian children removed from their families, forced to live and work in boarding schools that tried to strip away their heritage. Jayln's great-grandmother was one of them.
"When she was forced into one of those schools, she said her Ojibwe name, and they duct-taped bags of marbles to her knees and made her clean the floor on her hands and knees," she said.
So the 14-year-old Isaham wasn't surprised to see hardships like these depicted in the "Then Now Wow" exhibit, which opened in November at the Minnesota History Center.
She was surprised to be asked to be part of the display, which contrasts the lives of Indian children in boarding schools from 1879 to 1950 with the lives of middle-school students on the Red Lake reservation today.
A total of 14 students, including Isaham, were selected by the school librarian and teacher at Red Lake Middle School, Gloria Collyard. Last year, curators from the museum interviewed the students, and photographers and videographers followed them around like paparazzi, documenting them on the way to school, going from class to class, talking with friends in an attempt to capture their everyday lives.
The museum then put together a simple but powerful display contrasting the two time periods. A single row of old-fashioned desks, faded black-and-white photos, letters and keepsakes depict life at a boarding school. A brightly colored contemporary lunch table represents the "now" section of the display. The lunch table is topped with 14 red cafeteria trays, each with a profile of one of the students.
"That side is so sad and dark," said Isaham, talking about the portion of the display on the Indian boarding schools. "Then you look at ours and it's like BAM!, colorful and happy."
Ellen Miller, the exhibit developer for the Historical Society, said the aim of the display is to help visitors relate to the students from Red Lake.
"The key in introducing people from all backgrounds is to show that experiences are universal," Miller said. "They are special, but they are also just regular kids."
Seeing themselves
In January, the students made the four-hour trip from Beltrami County to the Twin Cities to see their display at the museum for the first time. They were startled — and pleased — to see themselves and how different their lives looked from those of their ancestors.
"I hope people can see how much has changed," said 16-year-old Athena Cloud, "but [the display] also teaches them to be more open-minded."
During their visit, the students didn't shy away from talking about the challenges the Indian community still faces.
"In the movies, they make us seem like we are bad people," said Jerol Beaulieu, 14.
"They think we are all bad people," said Dayton Lussier, 14.
But, they maintained, those negative stereotypes have helped spur them to succeed.
"They motivate me to prove them wrong," Cloud said.
Ashlyn Reynolds wants to be a doctor and join the Marines. In his profile for the display, Lussier wrote that he wanted to be the president of the United States.
And while life as an Indian has changed dramatically since the boarding-school days, there is one thing, the students say, that they hold as dear to their hearts as their ancestors did: their culture.
When Isaham told her grandmother that she would be participating in the display, her grandmother said to do something she hadn't been allowed to do:
"She told me to be loud and outspoken," Isaham said.

Never Lyrics
Artist: Boyz II Men
Album: Evolution
In this world today
Love is scarce and far away
And your heart gets so afraid
To trust someone
All the times he let you down
There was no love to be found
Well it's not the end
There'll be time to mend
And you'll love again
Never, never let a broken heart
Take a chance for love away
Don't ever let it make you fall apart
Never, never ever let the pain
Take your need for love away
Never, no never
And I know it seems hard
Open up, let down your guards
But you owe it to your heart
To try again
Oh, comes the time
When we must change
What the past has thrown away
Don't take the blame
Don't be ashamed
Throw your fears away
I know, don't be afraid
For you will never find
Another one you love again
I know that you'll be sorry girl
Be strong before it's too late
Because forever is too long
For you to live in pain
Just don't give up
Please open up to love

I have trying to make my wordpress page CSS 2.1 valid with NextGEN gallery.
No one of the effects (thickbox, lightbox ...) has a valid CSS 2.1 markup.
Tried to use smoothbox, that is told, it is valid CSS 2.1, but if I choose in the "effects tab" the custom option and I use as suggested at smoothbox home page
class="smoothbox" it does not work.
I would like to use smoothbox. Any idea to do it?
The only way I have found to make this plugin CSS 2.1 valid is editing the shuuter-reloaded.css file and dropping
opacity: xx and
filter: alpha(opacity=xx) options, cause they are not CSS 2.1 supported.
Help on a thickbox/lightbox/shutter valid CSS idea will be aprecited.
Thanks in advance.

Publisher's Description
While most new leadership books proudly promote themselves as the antidote to previous thinking, Leading from the Lions' Den takes pride in drawing its wisdom from ideas that have been available for a very long time in the unchanging Word of God. Here, author Tom R. Harper expounds upon one surprising principle from each of the Bible's sixty-six books. Each concept goes toward explaining human nature, which, when understood, is the foundation of business success.
Among the lessons that will work for leaders regardless of culture, time, or place are: "Lead, Inspire and Motivate with Plain Facts" (Deuteronomy), "Defrag Your Organization by Discovering its Weak Forces" (1 Chronicles), "Fight Superior Force with Superior Character" (Nahum), "Purify Your PR by Avoiding the Spotlight" (Mark), "Help the Competition" (Romans), "Soak Your Shield Before Battle" (Ephesians), and "Obliterate Fear with a Single Weapon" (1 John).
Author Bio
Tom R. Harper is president of the online church leadership community Church Central as well as NetWorld Alliance, a leading business-to-business media communications company. He lives with his wife and children in Louisville, Kentucky.

TravelPod Member ReviewsHyatt Place Ft. Lauderdale 17th Street Convention Center Fort Lauderdale
Very happy with in house laundry at $1.50 wash and $1.50 drier. Has a pool and small gym. Good breakfast and helpful staff. Only real complaint is a soft double bed.
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
Overnight before a cruise. The mob to take the "free shuttle" to the port isn't worth it. There is no order, no attempts to organize, and yahoos will push you out of the way to break line. Take a taxi.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hyatt Place Ft. Lauderdale 17th Street Convention Center Fort Lauderdale
Made things right
We have stayed in this property several times and always had a clean, reasonably priced room with a free breakfast. We just returned from two nights stay Jan 4 & 5. The first room we got was in terrible shape and the shower didn't work. The shower was fixed but we asked for a new room and got it. Plus a $60 credit back for the previous night's fiasco. The breakfast was fine and we have always enjoyed it. Would suggest you check out the room and make sure it meets your standards before you put in your luggage.
Just what we needed...
This hotel is what we needed for our recent (11/06/04)pre-cruise stay in Fort Lauderdale. It was very convenient to restaurants and convenience stores. It also has airport & pier transportation which we did not use since our car rental offered shuttle service to the pier. Our room was recently remodeled & very clean. When we first walked into the room it did smell damp, but considering they are in Ft Lauderdale it didn't bother me too bad. The continental breakfast was more than filling with lots of options. The outdoor pool & fitness were adequate. I would not hesitate to stay here again.
A Good Choice
Look folks, if you are looking for a good hotel for a short stay (perhaps before or after a cruise from Ft. Lauderdale), Amerisuites is just fine. Their shuttle was timely, the breakfast was full of good choices and well prepared, the rooms were clean, and the management did their job. Additionally, the hotel is located near many restaurants. What more could you want? For a short stay it is quite sufficient - I have no complaints at all. If you are staying longer than two nights and are expecting a little more luxury, well spend a lot more and find yourself a a resort with more amenities. If you are just passing through Ft. Lauderdale and want a clean, comfortable place to stay, this is definitely a good choice, especially because it includes the free shuttle (airport and cruise port), and a good breakfast. Tip: Entertainment Card rates can get you a suite here for as low as $54 a night!
Not the greatest... go elsewhere
Stayed here one night pre-cruise. Took FOREVER for the shuttle driver to pick us up at FLL. Not enough front desk staff - one one person, there must have been 20 people waiting to check-in. Reserved two rooms, one for the kids and one for us, got there, found rooms on two different floors and they would not change them! No bellhop, getting bags to rooms on two diffrent floors was a pain. Worst thing, next AM shuttle to Port Everglades - the wait time was 3+ hours, people cutting in the shuttle line, no help from hotel staff. Finally called a cab, when it arrived, we had to fight off others just to get to it - good thing the cab company had out last name, otherwise we'd have been forced to let someone else take it. HIGHLY unorganized for a cruise Saturday - staff is of no help whatsover. Do yourself a favor - stay at the Embassy Suites or Pier 66.
Ants in the Room.
We stayed at this hotel after a cruise from Port Everglades. When we got to the room, we noticed it was a bit run down, but didn't complain because it was only one night. But, when we got to the bed and turned on the light, we noticed that an ARMY of tiny ants was making its way across the wall and behind the bed. We called to complain and asked to move to another room. The front desk staff told us that the hotel was full and we couldn't move. So, we asked, what do we do about all these bugs in the room. Are they tiny ants? the front desk clerk asked? (Clearly they had heard this complaint before.) They offered to send someone up to spray insecticide all over the room. We refused that, not wanting to sleep in a chemical fog all night. So, they sent two men up to wipe the walls down with some kind of orange oil. We ended up pulling the beds out from the wall and sleeping with the lights on all night as that seemed to discourage some of the ant traffic. We did not ask for a refund, just chalking this up to a less than great travel experience that we will not repeat.
Not what expected
My husband and I stayed at the Amerisuites Hotel in Fort Lauderdale FL prior to departing on a cruise. I choose the hotel not only because of the price and airport transfers, but also because it was an Amerisuites Hotel.
The hotel itself was nice, however, the location was not desireable. It was off the main street within walking distance to restaurants, however, walking through the neighborhood where it was located was a bit scary.
The bed was horrible! The springs were literally popping through the one side of the bed so much that my husband had to change me sides in the middle of the night just so I could get some rest. The next day his back hurt so much.
I would not stay at this hotel again just because of the beds!
An Excellent Choice
I have just returned from a 4 day golfing trip to Florida and used Amersuites as our base.First class in every sense as the hotel was clean, tidy and modern, rooms spacious with two double beds and a fold down bed as well.Also included were microwave and fridge.The staff were helpful and friendly and the complimentary breakfast was great and started the day off a treat.Recommended as a good place to stay.
Great stay!
My husband and I stayed for 2 nights back in Aug '03. Walking distance of plenty of eateries and convenience stores. Only a quick drive to the beachfront. I would definitely stay again!!!
Wonderful, relaxed stay....
I got a great rate for this hotel (budget rates) and was worried that things were going to be bad, but I was pleasantly surprised with a HUGE suite that was nicely furnished and clean. Although no room service, many local resturants delivered and were quick. Free airport shuttle, free parking, public bus a block away for the beach (3 minute bus ride). Granted there is no view of the beach, but I spent the daytime AT the beach! Also, great continental breakfast. Love their waffel iron!

Flying on the shoulders of giants
The most common question Roisin and I get asked before we start off on one of our jaunts is: <i>'Going anywhere nice?'</i> A very strange question.

7 Day Eastern Caribbean Cruise on Regal Princess
... after finishing all that physical therapy following her surgery. Barbara stayed in the water for a while longer. She met several people from Maryland that were on a destination wedding cruise. The woman's daughter is getting married on Wednesday on St. Thomas at Magen's Bay beach, how very cool. A little while later Barbara got out and came to the lounge to dry off and read her Nook. There was a couple sitting next to Barbara that we overheard speaking French. It turns out they are ...
Home from home
... san fran to vegas then burning man and back for cleaning. Pretty crazy since the average mileage per year on a car used for gettin to work and that back home is 10,000!!!! Once we get to Miami and get to where Escape Campervans is we end up driving round the block about 5 times which has half of the road dug up with diversions everywhere and one way streets all around. We had to phone escape for directions and it turns out its just a small hut at the back of a ...
A quiet Wednesday in Miami
... superficial. I think I'm getting old.
Went into Macy's and stocked up on Estee Lauder, then walked several more blocks to an Internet cafe to print a stern letter to the credit card people who deactivated me, but that is a long story. We walked miles and miles, so needed a special lunch, and treated ourselves at the ...
