Read an Excerpt
I'm starting right before the beginning. That way you'll get to know some of the main characters like my parents and my 2 sisters even though they're not really the main main characters. Anyway I don't know if you've ever been on a camping trip in a National Park or anyplace like that so let me describe The Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming where it's the end of summer. Believe me it gets very very dark there darker than in Hutch Falls or wherever you live because there aren't any houses with lights and stuff and you're surrounded by all the stars they're talking about when they talk about there being billions of stars. And craters in the moon. Also the moon gets really low when you're out there almost like it's right over your head.
So picture this it's a night like that but even darker it's so dark we can see everything up there but not much down on the ground except our tents which were in our basement non-stop for about 2 years since the last time we used them and are glowing the color orange now because of the lanterns inside. So we can see them. And the tents are glowing and I swear it looks like we're just floating out in the middle of space right in the middle of all the stars and planets and other stuff out there which in a sort of cosmic way I guess we are.
All the main characters in my family are here including my Dad my Mom and Claire and Beth (my 2 sisters). My Mom and Claire and Beth are inside 1 of the tents they're whispering then laughing then sort of laugh-whispering you can see them moving from outside like shapes. My Dad's with me by the campfire which by the way is burned out and he keeps getting up and walking around he's wearing what he wears camping which is this blue mesh undershirt he thinks is the greatest undershirt ever yellow shorts black socks pulled up high and this is the worst a pair of old black dress shoes he used to wear to work.
"It's alright" he says and he goes over to our car which is a station wagon which is parked a few feet away. The station wagon is yellow and it's about 10 years old my Dad bought it 2 years before from my Uncle Henry who was selling it because no one in the world would want it because it was such an old yellow piece of crap except my Dad. He walks around the car looking at it like he's checking it out like he did when he was thinking about buying it from Uncle Henry because if you ask me he had no idea how to look under the hood or check the engine or anything like that then he comes back to the fire.
"It's OK it's natural. Women" he says.
He comes back over to me.
"Women it's OK you have to understand them very emotional" he says.
A few minutes before all this Claire came out of the tent and whispered something to my Mom my Mom was sitting there singing this song she sings that I hate about a guy who plays the saxophone and he finally finds this great girlfriend but she goes somewhere and then they can't find each other again so I'm like shut up. Then Claire comes out and whispers I just hear the word "blood" and "panties". But I'm not an idiot unless the tent exploded and Claire got some kind of weird piece of tent stuck in her upper upper leg she's having her 1st Period. Which is fine with me I took Sex Ed in 8th grade and I know what's going on even though it was hard to think in Sex Ed you'd be trying to think but everyone was trying to be so mature all the time and not laugh and you'd have to look around to see who was going to laugh and pretty soon you didn't even remember the question then a girl would say "VAGINA" and everybody would be like "Hmm do I laugh now?" and before you know it all Hell breaks loose and it is not a learning environment. But it's pretty easy to deduce that Claires panties have her Period all over them.
Here's what my Mom looks like: She's medium height with brown hair that's short sometimes and long sometimes. She isn't big or small. She doesn't wear glasses. I don't know if she's pretty or not.
Anyway my Mom and my older sister Beth stood up and the 3 of them went into the tent Mom comes out later and says "everythings fine" and so Dad goes off to the bathroom which is about a 1/2 mile away by the ranger station not to go to the bathroom but because it's the only place with lights so he can read. My Dad loves to read I mean loves. You can hear him laughing from all that way over there because he's really into some book by a guy from England that he thinks is the funniest thing in the world and he laughs like crazy whenever he's reading it. He always tells us everything about what he's reading and when he was telling us about it he said it started with a scene of a guy "krepitating" which I had no idea what that was and I guess nobody else did either because we all looked at him which was when he informed us it actually means fart but he didn't say the word fart I think he said passing gas. Which is not usually what my Dad thinks is funny but I guess this guy was so smart he made it funny. My Dad by the way always wants me to read more and I think it's 1 of the great disappointments of his life that his only son me doesn't like to read every second but would rather do stuff including watch TV sometimes.
Anyway this incident is very symbolic of Claire becoming a woman and my summer and my whole family sometimes they just treat me like I'm some kind of moron. Even though I think they usually think I'm pretty smart. And the girls and Mom are always like "Oh you men" so I guess we do sort of gang up on them or something but I don't know what we're ganging up on them about.
Anyway later when I was already in bed Dad came in the tent. He got in his wooly underwear and lay down on top of his sleeping bag and put his hands behind his head and started breathing in very slowly through his nose and out through his mouth which is what he learned from a book called Light On Yoga by B.K.S. Iyengar for when you want to relax. I pretend to be asleep.
School was starting in a few days. Once when I was a kid and my Mom was sick my Dad made my lunch and he made sardines or more like he wrapped them up and I took them to school and ate them. Then I thought about Caroline Zisko. You know those girls who wear all black 100% of the time? That's Caroline black fish-net stockings through which you can see her legs but also you can't at the same time black pants black skirts black shirts. But her face is totally white so it's like all this black and then this white face coming out of it like a dead body. Kind of a good looking dead body though. She's got this blond hair that's really nice even though it looks like she never combs it or washes it her face is sort of pretty even though it's got these little pock marks all over it. Caroline was nice and I talked to her 1 time in 9th Grade it was near the end of the year and I was standing at the top of the stairs by the freshman lockers about to go home I guess it was Friday Caroline was walking by and then she stops and looks at me.
"So what are you doing this weekend?" she asked.
"Um I'm gonna go see a movie" I said pretty much because I knew "nothing" was a bad answer "nothing" was like "I never do anything I never have done anything not once with anybody."
"A movie. Cool" she said nodding her head up and down like she totally believed me.
And then she went down the stairs and right before she turned I saw her black T-shirt pulled very tight over her Breasts which were small but looked huge in that shirt.
I stood there and wondered if I should of said a specific movie like Raiders Of The Lost Ark. I wondered if there was any chance that she was going to invite me somewhere if I gave a different answer when she said "what are you doing this weekend?" or if maybe it wasn't a question but it was more like she wanted for me to ask her to do something like "I'm just hanging out want to go see Star Wars?" Or maybe she meant that her and a bunch of her friends (who all wore tons of eye-shadow everywhere and had gross yellow cigarette stains on their teeth that were supposed to be white) were going to hang out in a basement and light candles and play creepy music and they wanted me to come over and sit on the couch and hang out and even though they were weird and freaky they were kind of hot too.

Intangible culture focus of Fourth International Folklore Congress in Kathmandu
The fourth international folklore congress recently concluded in Kathmandu. "Folklore and Folklife Studies: Special Focus on Intangible Cultural Heritage" was the theme of the event which the Nepali Folklore Society (NFS) organized from 17 to 19 August 2012 with support from various institutions including the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation and the UNESCO Office in Kathmandu.
The congress gathered more than hundred practitioners and national and international experts and researchers who presented papers on different thematic areas and addressed many crucial issues, fundamental and new theoretical approaches and good practices related to folklore in South-Asian context with special reference to Nepal.
The congress also encompassed an exhibition of eight different ethnic communities based on field work carried out by the NFS. An international poetry recitation and folk-performance on the occasion of the birth-centenary of the Nepali poet Siddhicharan Shrestha was also part of the congress.
Because folklore forms part of the heritage of humanity, national and international actions for its safeguarding is crucial. The UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, 2003 provides an excellent framework in this regard.
Posta Bahadur Bogati, Minister of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation, in his address at the opening session reaffirmed government's commitment to bring relevant programs into action to safeguard and promote Nepal's very rich and diverse cultural manifestations in the spirit of the convention and in line with the culture policy the government introduced two years back.
He said: "Folklore and folklife, among others, is a cultural reflection of individual, community and a country. Because the folklore embodies people's enthusiasm, grievances and thoughts of life and practices, it carries the originality of a life which is an exemplary for others but also an invaluable assets for a country."
Tulasi Diwasa, President of the NFS raised very important issue on how to utilize the different forms of folklores which is so attached with its natural environment, socio-cultural condition and context in order to enhance the quality of people living in different parts of the country.
Axel Plathe, UNESCO Representative to Nepal said: "Folklore as an intrinsic part of living culture is closely interlinked with other manifestations of culture: traditions, value systems, and lifestyles. It is also a powerful connector as it brings together people celebrating and asserting their cultural identities. This congress is an opportunity to foster respect for the living cultural expression and traditions that are the essence of the people in Nepal and elsewhere".
Addressing the academic session, Tim Curtis from UNESCO Office in Bangkok shared the Asia Pacific experience of and challenges facing the region in implementing the 2003 Convention.
He said: "Often ministries or the departments of culture do have conservation architects, archaeologists dealing with heritage but not enough experts who deal with the intangible heritage such as anthropologist and people who have worked in this area. So the main objective is not limited to building capacity of policy makers and government implementers, but also the community members and NGOs, because one of the requirements of the Convention is to establish an inventory of the intangible culture heritage and also the requirement that practitioners have to have an ultimate say to identify, define and how to safeguard the intangible heritage".
The three point Kathmandu Declaration – to establish folklore faculties in universities, a SAARC level folklore learning centre and an umbrella folklore academy of institutions working in the field of folklore- has been adopted in the congress.

Bringing a blown up WV mountain to JP Morgan Chase
Back in January, the journal Science exploded the myth of clean coal, with a study concluding mountaintop removal (MTR) "permits are being issued despite the preponderance of scientific evidence that impacts are pervasive and irreversible and that mitigation cannot compensate for losses." Guest blogger Anne Polansky has the latest on citizen action against MTR in this repost.
Polansky, a long-time friend and colleague, applies her training in the Earth sciences and public policy to effect positive change in government and the marketplace, with a strong focus on global climate disruption and sustainable energy policy and practices. The awesome poster above is courtesy of thatvisionthing.
You gotta admit, it's creative. Smack in the middle of the floor of an otherwise sparkly clean lobby of a JP Morgan Chase bank branch in Manhattan sits a big pile of dirt, shaped like a mountain. Atop sits a letter to the CEO of the behemoth bank, Jamie Dimon, begging for mercy on behalf of huge mountains just west of here (DC) being blown to smithereens by the likes of Massey Energy to get at the solid black gold laced throughout, the stuff that powers our homes and quite likely, this blog post. As are an increasing number of us, Reverend Billy and his choir are really ticked off about Mountaintop Removal and show it by ceremoniously carrying plates of "overburden" fresh from the country roads of West Virginia, singing the gospels of mountain beauty and inspiration, inviting the rest of us to join in the righteous indignation. You go, Rev, and keep it up. You speak (and sing) for me, too. Earth-alujah!!!!
- Earthfire's diary :: ::
Link here for the Rev's diary of the action; he even facebooked it.
There you'll see links to a couple of must-see videos:
And a photo taken a little while later: the cops arrive, visibly baffled….
Q: Hey Joe, what on Earth is this stuff? A: The Earth (or used to be!)
To be fair, to walk into a bank and see a big pile of dirt (without a dirty bomb inside) put there on purpose probably is a bit baffling. Let's help them out a little bit.
So Officer Joe, and other curious passers by, here's the deal on MTR (mountaintop removal).
- Coal is used to generate more than half of the USA's electricity. One could say that "America is the Saudi Arabia of coal" as the US has about 250 years' worth of coal reserves at our current burn rate. More than 100 new coal-fired plants are on the drawing board, despite the many problems that coal burning creates, climate change being at the top of the list. In other words, there's lots of coal swirling around inside Appalachian Mountains, and lots of coal-fired power plants willing to pay for it to be extracted.
- JP Morgan Chase finances and underwrites coal mining companies like Massey Energy Co. and electric power generation companies that continue to burn cheap coal to make electricity, despite the risks to planet Earth.
- MTR is wildly destructive. We've essentially detonated, decimated, and put some lame bandaids on tracts of land that, taken together, exceeds the square miles of Delaware.
- The cookbook version of MTR goes something like this:
- Remove the forest. (Note, the US EPA estimates that 2,200 square miles of Appalachian forests will be cleared for MTR sites by the year 2012.)
- Scrape away topsoil, the larger the steam shovel, the better.
- Insert bomb. (States engaging in MTR each detonate about 1,000 tons of explosives a day and some blasts have lopped as much as 800 feet off a mountain.)
- Remove coal, sell on open (highly subsidized) market.
- Use bulldozers to put "overburden" (sterile dirt) back to try and make mountain look "good as new."
- Push and shove leftover rock and soil debris into hollows and stream beds, ignore fish screams.
- Repeat.
To add idiocy to injury, we can look inside the mind of CEO of Massey Energy Company, Don Blankenship, who has been whining about reduced profit margins from his quarterly coal revenue of a half a billion dollars. Commenting on the 4th Q of 2009, Massey said:
"We were pleased with our control of costs and our positive cash generation during the fourth quarter in spite of very difficult market and operating conditions."
What are these difficulties he's all upset about? Whether he realizes it or not, he's upset about an increasingly disrupted climate system as the result of CO2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion, like coal burning, for example. In his own sadly ironic words:
"The weak global economy and lower total energy demand from electric utilities and steelmakers weighed on the quarterly sales volumes. In addition, weather, weather-related power outages and disruption of rail and ocean transport significantly impacted Massey's operations. Produced tons sold in the quarter totaled 7.8 million compared to 10.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2008.
The shipping delays caused by the remnants of Hurricane Ida as it pounded the east coast of the United States in November were only exacerbated by the heavy snowfalls and extreme low temperatures of December. The impacts of the adverse weather on mine operations and transportation and regulatory constraints prevented us from reaching our quarterly shipment targets. However, other projections for revenue and costs per ton were within guidance tolerances."
So — when will oil and coal barons get a clue that the very business they are engaged in is itself creating market conditions that will make it increasingly difficult to continue the very business they are engaged in….
This is in the category of DUH.

A picture is worth 1,000 words. It's really offensive to see mountains without their tops.
Iron ore for iron to make steel and wind turbines is mined the same way
crime scenery in the Bay of Bengal: island disappears under rising seas:
Rahj, #2, I'm not sure what your point is, but iron ore and coal mining are not comparable.
The Mesabi Range in Minnesota, where our iron ore comes from, is a barren and uninhabited area, with little wildlife and minor leaching and pollution issues.
Coal comes from one of the most diverse and biologically rich temperate forests in the world. Local inhabitants are poisoned and driven out. Blasted mountaintops may never recover, and adjacent streams carry toxins for miles downstream, probably for centuries.
Everything about mining and burning coal is an atrocity, and a testament to greed and callousness gone berserk.

Excellent idea to tie corporation's brand names to the effect that they are having on the world.
JP Morgan Chase – Enabling mountain top removal.
Massey Energy – We poison your water.
re: 6. Mark
Yes — "branding" is a technique the Repubicans have learned to use effectively, even to promote illegal invasions (e.g., Iraq) and restrictions of privacy in the name of the "war on terror." Progressives on the other hand have been lousy at messaging, and could stand to learn lessons from the right wing on the art and science of this powerful communications technique.
A couple more potential slogans come to mind….
"This decimated landscape brought to you by Massey Energy… there's no mountain too high to prevent us from bringing you the dirt-cheap energy you deserve!"
"Do all your banking business with JP Morgan Chase, we use every dollar you entrust with us to ensure rapid ecological devastation — so you don't have to bother."
(Thanks for the crosspost, Dr. Romm!)

GE — We Bring Bad Things To Fish
"Corporations do everything people do except breathe, die and go to jail for dumping 1.3 million pounds of PCBs in the Hudson River."
–Stephen Colbert
Every time you name a bad corporate actor, like JP Morgan Chase, name (and shame) the CEO, like Jamie Dimon.
Why? Corporations have no nerves, no shame, no conscience, no morals, no mortality. They do have vast p/r and marketing budgets; millions of loyal customers, employees, and suppliers; and all the goodwill that comes with. CEOs are the opposite. They are much more vulnerable to bad press, and as multimillionaires they get much less sympathy. (That's why they show "regular folks" in those ads, and not the CEO.)
Most important, the CEO deserves the blame! Corporations don't make decisions, CEOs do.
So please, please aim your words where they are deserved, and where they might have the greatest effect. CEOs are the Achilles' heel of misbehaving corporations.
By the way, everything about Dimon goes double for News Corporation and its founder and CEO, Rupert Murdoch.
You remember some of the bad things that Beck, O'Reilly, Hannity, etc have said? Yeah, I do, too. But Rupert Murdoch is the guy who pulled them off the street, and gave them millions of viewers and millions of dollars to spout their filth.
Never let the CEO off the hook.
tvt — thank you.
That Colbert "Word" clip should have been submitted in the Citizens United case as evidence, or as an amicus brief.
Coal companies are supposed to engage in repair and remediation of these destroyed mountains. Some of us have looked into whether that remediation might include installing wind turbines at coal company expense on these sites. It's not as good as leaving the mountains intact in the first place, but it's an idea worth exploring. One analysis showed the wind conditions are not as good on these lower elevation mountains. Another problem is that they are not near the grid, so the intertie costs would be high. Still, if the coal companies had to pay some of these costs as part of a remediation package, it might be economical to site turbines on these sites. I don't think there would be as much of a NIMBY concern in these cases as there often is toward wind farms in the Appalacians.
a. I dont think a wind farm would look that good inside a bank office building either. I mean thats kind of silly
b. Masseys comments on the weather – havent we been trying to beat into everyone's heads that weather is NOT climate?
c. JP Morgan Chase is a lender. Its really NOT their business to judge the social cost benefit of the enterprises they lend money to. Does JPMC lobby against needed legislation on climate change, as the coal and oil companies do? If so, than protest them (of course you can also protest their stands on financial reg reform, but thats a different issue)
d. When people speak of clean coal, they usually mean wrt emissions. That may be a boondoggle, or not, but that coal mining has other costs is really a different issue. Neither unpleasantness in W Va, nor off the coast of Nantucket, is going to matter that much to the whole planet.
JPMC supports:
"A policy dialogue to advocate that the US government adopt a market-based national policy on greenhouse gas emissions, which includes all sources of emissions and is fair. Options include either a cap-and-trade or tax policy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at the lowest possible cost."
These people are taking the RIGHT approach on GHG's. They are lined up with Apple, Google, etc on the GHG debate, not with the oil companies and coal companies.
No, they don't go telling their CLIENTS (and yes, thats what a big corporate borrower is to JPMC) that they wont offer loans cause of mountaintops. Its not JPMC's job to do what the EPA should be doing.
That may not be popular because its fun to attack big banks, if you are a progressive. And they sure screwed up in plenty of ways the last couple of years.
But if you are going to attack like this, for reasons, like this, you will end up with damned small tent.
Take a hint from Obama, who got doctors and hospitals and even Big Pharma on board, and got health care reform passed. Policy change OR "progressive purity" Pick one.
Reply to Mark: Also point could be made (was made in movie The Corporation) that "corporate persons" are clinically diagnosable psychopaths. So, framing:
Jaime Dimon – humanity = JP Morgan Chase = psychopath.
Or to continue with Colbert,
Jaime Dimon – humanity = JP Morgan Chase = psychopath with lots and lots of paper ballots (dollar bills):
"One dollar gives your candidate one vote. Twenty dollars gives your candidate 20 votes. And a 10 million dollar cashier's check from Exxon gives your candidate a much better idea of where he stands on drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge." — Stephen Colbert
I took this idea a little further last night on Daily Kos, where I point out that even if a corporation falls afoul of the law, it can't go to jail, but it can buy its way to good graces again from the government via a nifty mechanism called "corporate monitoring." What a convenient way to funnel money back to the government you want to buy, and what a nice payoff to your friends in the Justice Department like former AGs Ashcroft and Mukasey.
Another alum @ 14 —
thanks for pointing out JPMC's enlightened corporate policy supporting a market-based price for carbon, and for the broader, more important point of not alienating potential allies.
Yet another reason for not attacking the company, but the CEO. When you attack the company, you immediately lose sympathy from many loyal employees and customers. Folks can separate the CEO from the company, and know that powerful people, like CEOs, should know right from wrong.
A before and after pair of pictures might work even better.

Reply to Mike Roddy (#4)
"The Mesabi Range in Minnesota, where our iron ore comes from, is a barren and uninhabited area, with little wildlife …"
When the Gray Wolf was added to the Endangered Species List in 1974, about 90% of the remaining wolves (in the lower 48) lived in the Iron Range and land up to the Canadian border. Even after years of successful wolf recovery, northeastern Minnesota is still home to about two-thirds of the wolves today.

Furthermore, areas that are "barren" (such as "lakes" created by open pit mines) only became that way after a century of human abuse, rather than any natural cause (such as climate).
The implied point by Rahj Majendra is an accurate one that "green" industrialism is still not sustainable. There is no substitute for simply using way less energy.

The Internet Reacts To The Inauguration
This is supposed to be a respectful and solemn day for the country, so can we please try and take this seriously for just two seconds?!
1. President Obama gave a great speech.

2. And Beyoncé and Michelle Obama were fierce as ever.
3. Ha ha, very funny.
4. Bill Clinton was having a pretty good morning too.
5. And Joe was being good ol' Joe.
6. There was a pretty interesting crowd too, like the man with an impossibly long forehead.
7. Or this really sad guy in the choir.
8. Or this joker taking photos with an iPad. Get out of here with that. What do you think this is?
Via reddit.com
9. Chuck Schumer was pretty excited to be on there.
10. And it was a pretty exciting day for television too.
11. With lots of very respectful and serious inauguration coverage.
12. Also, George Stephanopoulos thought Bill Russell was Morgan Freeman. Whoops!

13. The inauguration was a spectacular day for photobombs.
14. But it could have been a little more festive of a ceremony.

15. Or maybe had a few more celebrities.
16. But there's one thing everyone can agree on.
17. Sasha and Malia…

18. …stole the show.

My Replacement
Sent to England to take my place at all the parties, she is called Caroline and I see she has hit the bubbly already!
Somewhere around Day 706 to Day 723
I woke up completely aware of my surroundings, after all how could you forget that you were on a 747 with that familiar hum in your ears? I peeled back my blindfold, its still dark in the cabin, there is not a single bright light anywhere, and no one is reading.
Surely the lights will start to go on in a minute? They must be serving breakfast soon? I have no idea of what time it is, I am not wearing a watch as it is in for a service, so as I lay across the luxury of my 4 seats with 3 pillows and 2 blankets I remembered that my Ipod had a clock and it was in GMT, I was not concerned about what time it was on Australia's East coast, my concern now was how close we were to landing.
Oh no, this was not good news, my Ipod flicked the time up, 11.39pm, you've got to be kidding me? We were not due to land at Heathrow until 6.35am, another 7 hours away!
Oh well, so I got up for a wander, grabbed some water stood
Prospect House, Bath
Relaxing outside our weekend retreat
around at the back of the plane for a bit and then resumed my previous position, there was only one thing for it, try and get back to sleep, but I was hungry! Of course I was it would be breakfast time back in Australia, yet the last time I ate, I thought that I was full and probably wouldn't want to eat anything else. Supper was a nice meal with all of the associated trimmings, coffee, wine etc. but of course it all comes at once and you eat it all!
Eventually after what seemed like an eternity and breakfast, all of the shutters were up and we were being prepared for landing, dawn was breaking, a beautiful orange glow was visible above the blanket of clouds below us. Eventually we descended below the clouds and it was not long before the lights of London stretched out below us, my first sighting of London in a long while.
The plane touches down and thus signals a halt to my time out of England, so after 1 year, 11 months and 7 days later I find myself back on British soil.
Standing at the carousel, was my
Rocking Horse
luggage going to be there? Would I be lucky? There was no reason not to be, providing everything has worked the way it should then it would be here, but with Andy's experience earlier this week, he arrived in Far North Queensland after 3 flights minus his luggage, at least I was only on two different planes and as long as my luggage was transferred at Sydney airport at the same time as me then I would be lucky.
No more than 10 minutes later there it was upside down on the carousel looking slightly worse for wear, not only were there clear visible signs of the red Kimberley dust that had long since worn itself in, I could see a tear and once I had wrestled all 23.3 kg's off the carousel, closer inspection revealed that it was the stitching that had torn, but it could have been worse, but the contents of my case were all intact, I marched through nothing to declare and soon I was out on the other side looking through the crowd for one familiar face.
Thus commenced a whirlwind tour of friends and family, I could not possible get to see
Paddington Bear
everyone in the time that I had available but I also had some business matters to deal with such as doing the house inspection.
I battled the jet leg for the first day, I went shopping and met a friend of mine for lunch, being very covert in Basingstoke just in case someone who I was trying to surprise was shopping there, it would be unlikely but you never know.
I purchased a pay as you go sim card for my British mobile phone and before long gave the number to a few people who needed the number, more importantly it was going to be my main contact with Andy, apart from using Skype.
I fought to stay awake as long as I could but by 9.00 my eyes were heavy, apparently I was talking drivel anyway, so off to bed I go, I lay in bed trying to send a few text messages, but kept nodding off in between, eventually I switched my phone off and slipped into a deep sleep, only to wake up at 4.30 am as bright as a button!
I did my best to sleep a little more but by 6.00am
The Posse
Nikki, Doris, Babs, Caroline (the other one!), me, Keeley Sue and Karen
I gave in and went to make a cup of tea. I took it back to bed and sat reading the newspaper that I had picked up at the airport the morning before.
It was to be an exciting day with a lot of reunions ahead of me, especially after months of covert planning it was all going to come to fruition, I just hope that I did not blow it at the last minute. A few text messages were exchanged and the final plans were in place for later today but I still had the morning ahead of me and first on the list, well after breakfast that is, was to see Mum and Dad who were driving up to Basingstoke to collect me.
A tearful reunion with Mum and Dad followed, we headed off for a leisurely lunch in a lovely country pub that we used to go to a lot (Bear and Ragged Staff, Michelmersh) and a visit to my storage unit, it was like opening Aladdin's Cave! I needed some clothes for the weekend and every box I opened was an excitement as I saw things that I forgot that I had, shoes, dresses,
The Cultural Part
handbags. I picked a few key items out and then headed over to my friend Nikki's house for another reunion.
We waited patiently outside for her to return from work, I wonder what the neighbours must have thought as we danced around her front garden hugging, laughing and in tears.
We waited indoors for Lynda to arrive and when she rang the bell, I opened the door and as she stood there chatting away I wondered how long it would be before she realised she was not standing there talking to Nikki. It took a while and suddenly she was very speechless, for a change (sorry Lynda!).
Anyway, the rest of the weekend is not for your eyes but it was a major success, they were all very suitably surprised when I walked in through the door I was greeted with several open mouths, very closely followed by shrieks of excitement, disbelief and plenty of tears, I think they were all impressed that the secret had been kept so well and for so many months! Thanks to Nikki and Keeley's efforts That is all I am saying about the weekend, it was fabulous and I am so
A few of us go for a wander
Doris, Lynda, Sue and Karen
glad that I made the effort!
My brief interlude back in England was exceptionally busy, not much time to rest, very emotional going from moments of joy in seeing people to moments of complete sadness at having to leave them again. I feel a tad guilty that I have not been able to see everyone, but time was short.
However my visit would not have been complete without seeing one other famous couple and knowing I would be in and around the Tamworth area, I dropped a Skype message to say where I would be and when, a brief exchange of mobile numbers and eventually a text message to confirm their arrival.
Andy and I first met this couple via our blog, they were following our progress round Australia and were soon on their own journey doing the same thing, we eventually met up for the first time at Lake Tineroo in the Atherton Tablelands, we've spent days in the dirt scrubbing around looking for that ultimate find of a piece of Topaz and above all shared lots of laughs and very poetic moments. Ultimately there has always been a goodbye and twice we have said goodbye
Doris, me, Sue and Karen
as we saw this couple when our journey came to a halt in Canberra and their journey was also nearing its end after 12 months.
Yes folks, two hemispheres collide as I meet up with the Wallaby Wanderers, we never knew each other when we lived in the Northern Hemisphere and met on our incredible journey's in the Southern Hemisphere and here we are in the Northern Hemisphere swapping stories again.
As a special treat, they brought me some Marmite, yes folks another jar of marmite, if there is one thing that I love and that is Marmite! Thanks WW's! I promise to eat it and not cherish it forever.
Sadly only a short space of time, we all chatted swapped some more stories and once again time to say goodbye as they drove down the road and disappeared around the corner.
So my journey from Heathrow took me to Basingstoke, Southampton, Bath, Welwyn Garden City, Tamworth, Basingstoke via Middle Wallop and then back to Southampton, I was astonished at the traffic, was it my imagination or was the traffic heavier than it used to be, maybe I just got used to no traffic at all?
Driving up and down the motorway I could see the countryside around me, it was so green, I had missed that and the motorways that had become so familiar and so boring because I used to drive up and down them all the time suddenly became mildly interesting.
It took a while to adapt to the speed on the motorway, the M25 was just crazy, I had forgotten what it was like to be part of that rat race, these things were reminding me why I left in the first place. The time of year was bringing mixed weather, while I was in Bath it was sunny and warm, but the following 2 weeks changed all that, the rain came, the days became dreary and grey and I remembered the feeling that I used to have when I sat in traffic every day crawling to work at a snails pace and longing to be on the other side of the globe.
All in all I guess it reminded me why I left in the first place, but that's not to say I don't like England, because I do, it still has its charm but for now Australia is
my home and I am enjoying the lifestyle, ok work is still work wherever you are in the world, but the environment is different and I craved that difference.
My two weeks vanished in a flash, and it was time to say my goodbyes again. It is actually very hard writing this as even thinking about it brings a tear to my eyes.
I do feel guilty for not seeing everyone and not spending more time with people than I did but next time will have to be a longer visit.
For some reason saying goodbye a second time round was the hardest thing in the world, the day I left was an exceptionally hard day and one that I wished I did not have to go through, without any support from my intrepid sidekick Mr KJ I embarked on all my good byes, the slightest thing would bring a tear to my eye. I don't say that the first time was easy, but we left to embark on and adventure, which we are still having but we had the excitement of starting a new journey, this time leaving, was to continue with my journey.
Beautiful Bath Cottage
friend of mine assures me that the goodbyes are hard for the first four years and then it gets easier, oh well only another 2 years to go then!
It would have been too hard for Mum and Dad to come to the airport to see me off and I did have a number of offers to take me back to Heathrow, thinking about it now, perhaps my friends wanted to make sure I actually left the country – Hmmmm?
So a little before 3.00 on that Autumn afternoon, the posse gathered and we hit the road. Once more we chatted constantly all the way, mainly wondering how they were going to get tickets to see Take That in concert, but anything was good to take my mind off the impending goodbye.
Heathrow was its usual busy self, but we found a parking space, my cases were unloaded and we headed for check in, I soon checked in, I was told it was a busy flight, this time it was on a 777 (no not the Qantas A380 with engine trouble!) so there was not going to be any room for me to have the luxury of
stretching across the seats, never mind at least I had a good trip over.
It was just like you see in the films, the tearful goodbyes just before I headed through security. It all felt a bit surreal really, I went one way and the girls went the other! They were soon out of sight and I had to get one with the rest of my evening, go through to departures a bit of shopping (nothing new there then!) I found the lounge and went in to make a few tearful phone calls, drink some coffee and await boarding.
Finally the plane was fully boarded, I was trying to read my book but I was also very tired, it had been an exhausting couple of weeks and as the plane hurtled down the runway and left the tarmac the tears just rolled down my face. I knew it would be hard but I didn't know it would be this hard. There was some kind of surge of emotion that I could not control, no matter how hard I wanted to fight the tears, they just still rolled.
By the time the cabin crew came round with the
I wonder where the pot of gold is?
drinks trolley I needed a brandy, she gave me two bottles (little ones!) I bet they see this all the time and I know now that I was not the only one on the flight that was overcome with emotion, there were at least 3 of us and we all happened to meet at Singapore airport when we were waiting to re board the flight on to Sydney.
I wanted to go home, but it was hard to leave everyone behind, which brings me back to my last blog and the original point of "When is it appropriate to call another country home?"
I was excited to get back and see Andy and what was happening back in Canberra, after all summer is on its way and we have things to do, little did I know that when I got back I would not have a chance to get over the jet lag and unpack my case before needing to hit the road again.
Until next time
Mrs KJ

Back in the November of 2008, we embarked on an adventure that would take us out of everything that we were so familiar with, a comfortable life in the UK, friends, family and the English countryside. Some call it brave, others thought that we would be back, but above all, most people helped us embrace the challenge that lay ahead of us. Weary of corporate life, we emigrated to Australia, with the notion of buying a 4 wheel drive and camper trailer and a 12 month trip to explore our adopted country, Not an easy thing to do as we had to start from scratch, simple things like knife, fork, s...

You're making us feel homesick!
Hi Caroline (and Andy), it was great to see photos of the Wallaby Wanderers with you in Tamworth, UK and also photos of Bath. Our house is about 20 miles from there so it made us feel very homesick. We feel sad that we won't see Sarah and Darryl for a while yet but we are having a great time - we're in Noosa at the moment. Best wishes, Jan and Graham

Hi Possums, Sorry for making you homesick, but I could not be that close to the Wallaby Wanderers without seeing them. I hd a terrific time in Bath, beautiful part of England. I loved Noosa and look forward to heading back there one day. Happy travels! KJ x

A Dallas convenience store owner and manager have been charged in a $1.9 million food stamp scheme.
Federal officials say store owner Kamardeen Ogunleye and manager Robert Gordon were each charged with one count of conspiracy to commit food stamp fraud, five counts of food stamp fraud and aiding and abetting, and six counts of wire fraud.
Ogunleye was also charged with two counts of structuring financial transactions.
The indictment, which was unsealed Friday, alleges that they purchased food stamp benefits from recipients in exchange for cash at an about 50 percent exchange rate.
The amount of the redeemed benefits was then deposited into Ogunleye's accounts.
Both were free on bond Saturday.

My dad used to make me cinnamon toast all the time, and I absolutely loved it! He also taught me that the best way to eat cinnamon toast is to fold it in half and dunk it in chocolate milk.

sam and max season 3?
these sam and max games are both hilarious and fun. i really want to play season 3, but i don't want to get it on PS3. will it be released on the 360 in a compilation pack like before, or am i just out of luck?
TTG haven't ruled out a XBLA release. If it will be episodic like W&G or complete like S&M, they don't know!
(EDIT: I'm not getting into SEASON 3. MAX's mind-powers add a level of irritation to puzzle solving!)
ok, thanks. btw your wallace and gromit guides were really useful! thanks for those.

Mountaineering Courses and Guided Climbing
Frost Guiding Alpine Mountaineering Courses and Guided Treks are based near Arolla, Switzerland.
Our clients really appreciate the easy going, friendly atmosphere and flexibility of our Alpine Chalet, where a dedicated host looks after everyone with delicious home cooking and baking.
We offer courses for climbers of all levels with IFMGA Alpine Mountain Guides:
Guided Trekking Peaks - ideal for keen mountain walkers and scramblers who seek the challenge of the high Alps without technical rock and ice terrain.
Introductory Mountaineering Courses and High Summits - these courses offer a solid instructional grounding and varied experience of snow, rock and mixed routes. Suitable for a first Alpine trip.
Intermediate / Advanced Mountaineering - our Technical Alpine Mountaineering courses require greater prior experience of rock and/or snow-ice climbing; they can follow on from our Introductory Alpine Courses or from good experience of personal technical climbing.
We also offer Private Guiding, and tailored courses for large groups and can run our alpine mountaineering courses on other dates for groups of 2 or more - please contact us for availability and prices.
For what's included in our mountaineering course prices and information on accommodation click here.
Graham Frost is a permanent resident in the Arolla valley and leads our regular team of IFMGA Mountain Guides. Our staff are almost exclusively British Mountain Guides and Aspirant Guides who have long experience of working with English-speaking clients.
For travel information see "Frost Guiding - getting to Evolene".
Find our Alpine Summer kit list and hire prices here (you can hire most of the technical mountaineering equipment that you need).
What our clients say:
"Cracking itinerary, we got the maximum out of the week. Judith's food was excellent. The arrangements are spot on. Everyone has a great chance to get together and share what we have got up to. Fab mix of people." Keith 2015
"It was so thrilling to climb the Dent Blanche, and the 6 of us gelled so well, it made for an absolutely amazing few days. I don't think I have ever laughed so much on a climbing trip before!" Katya, 2015

Turning Back the Clock
"Some of the fat always gets absorbed by the body, so we always over do it," Antell says. "A disadvantage [of fat] is that it is a fairly thick material, so it is hard to use for fine lines. It's better for larger areas," Antell says.
While not technically a filler, Botox injections are still Antell's first choice for the treatment of wrinkles.
Botox or botulinum toxin is a purified form of the same botulism toxin that can cause serious food poisoning. Small doses of the toxin are injected into wrinkles, paralyzing them.
"We use it between brows or on the forehead, and we can also use it to soften crow's feet on the sides of the eyes," says Antell, who's also a spokesperson for the American Society of Plastic Surgeons based in Arlington Heights, Ill.
Perricone agrees. "We have been using Botox for awhile and we do not see any adverse effects, so we are staring to get a high comfort level with it."
Another new filler on the block is injections of a gel called hyalaronic acid. Not yet available in the U.S., this gel "floats" skin cells rather then filling in the craters caused by wrinkles.
Perricone says, "There is always a new procedure that supposedly works better and has less side effects but we have to wait and see. We are looking forward to better techniques and fillers in the future."
That said, man-made materials like polymers or plastics and others "are nice because they are inert or harmless," he says.
Another filler called fascia lata was originally used to raise deep scars. It is a small piece of human fascia (the material just under the fatty tissue) that is inserted under the skin to plump it up. It is used to improve scars, augment lips, and smooth out wrinkles.
There also are hybrid fillers, which are mixtures of plastic and bovine collagen blended together to form partially permanent filler. Not yet FDA approved for use, these fillers work because while collagen dissolves after injection, the plastic skin spheres remain behind to plump up the skin.

Muni Yields Plunge to 44-Year Low as 2012 Supply Trails Demand
U.S. municipal-bond yields dropped to the lowest in more than four decades as issuers were slow to sell enough debt this month to meet demand after the asset class beat Treasuries and U.S. stocks last year.
The interest rate on 20-year general-obligation bonds with an average Moody's Investors Service rating of Aa2, the third-highest, fell 0.21 percentage point to 3.62 percent in the week ended Jan. 12, according to a Bond Buyer index. That's the lowest since April 1967, when Lyndon B. Johnson was president.
"We're in the middle right now of just a powerful rally," said Joe Deane, who manages $16 billion as head of municipal-bond investments at Pacific Investment Management Co. in New York. "You have to let the new-issue market begin to put supply back into the marketplace because, at the moment, the market is on the tight side."
Municipal interest rates are also falling as tax revenue rebounds following the 18-month recession that ended in 2009, and as governments close $500 billion of budget deficits. State and local-government tax revenue rose 4.1 percent in the third quarter, the eighth straight gain, the Census Bureau said.
In the two weeks ending Jan. 6, states and municipalities issued $1.27 billion of bonds, the lowest two-week total since January 2008, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
The amount of local-government debt scheduled for sale in the next 30 days dropped to about $4.2 billion, down 37 percent from a one-month high on Jan. 10, Bloomberg data show.
At the same time, investors are funneling money into the $3.7 trillion market at a faster clip. U.S. municipal-bond funds added about $1.1 billion in the week to Jan. 11, the most since March 2010, Lipper US Fund Flows data show.
The yield on top-rated 30-year municipal bonds fell the past five days, to 3.39 percent at 4 p.m. New York time yesterday, according to Bloomberg Valuation Index data.
The municipal market returned 11.2 percent in 2011, compared with 9.8 percent for Treasuries, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch index data. The Standard & Poor's 500 index was little changed for the year.

The issue of Human Rights has been central to thinking about Africa throughout the modern era, ranging from debates about the legality and ethics of the slave trade to the questions about the rights and status of African immigrants in US and Europe that shape the contemporary political and media landscape. It is no surprise, therefore, that such questions are also given significant space in African literature, African cinema, African popular music, and other related and non-related cultural media. But what do we mean when we speak of Human Rights? Are we asserting a natural and universal equality among all people, regardless of race, class, gender, or geography, or are we perpetuating an Enlightenment-era, universalist doctrine that dictates the terms of relations between Africa and the West? Moreover, how does the question of Human Rights manifest in literature, cinema, music, the internet, etc. and how do the formal conventions and implied audience of each of these shape and influence the exploration of Human Rights both within that particular medium or genre and in broader debates?
We invite an exploration of these and similar topics, including, but not limited to:
Proposals for papers or full panels should be sent to email@example.com by February 15, 2012.
Proposals for papers should be 1 page and should include name, email address, full mailing address, telephone, country and institutional affiliation.
Proposals for panels should include a one page summary of the scope and focus of the panel in addition to 1 page summaries for each paper.
Panel proposals should also include the name, email address, full mailing address, telephone, country and institutional affiliation of each participant, and should designate a panel Chair.
ALA membership dues should be paid in full by December 30, 2011, in order to guarantee full consideration for inclusion in the conference.
*Following ALA tradition, papers and panels on all other aspects of African literature, arts, and film are also considered.

text: NEW YORK ( MainStreet) -- If it still isn't fall, why have craft beer drinkers been seeing pumpkin beer on shelves since August? Without fail, this is one of the most common messages that fills a beer writer's inbox around this time of year: Why is fall seasonal beer already out when I'm not done with summer seasonal beer yet? There are two answers to that question, and folks who still want a witbier or summer ale aren't going to like them. The first is that craft beer brewers operate extremely close to the margins and don't like to have beer laying around when nobody wants it. Jim Koch, founder of Boston Beer ( SAM) and the Samuel Adams brand, last year drew a similar parallel to Samuel Adams' Old Fezziwig holiday brew. People love Old Fezziwig just before the holidays, but want nothing to do with it once the clock strikes midnight on New Year's Eve. "The basic reason -- and it's not that we can't get enough of the ginger or cinnamon or anything -- is that freshness is a big deal for us and this is a beer that has a season," he said. "Beer at its foundation is a performance art that exists in the moment of its creation and that's it, and Fezziwig is very much in that situation of being perfect for a certain time." Samuel Adams now brews its own Pumpkin Ale and toyed with a pumpkin stout before releasing its 8.5% alcohol by volume Fat Jack imperial pumpkin ale last year. Demand for pumpkin ale has grown so much within the past decade that Anheuser-Busch InBev ( BUD) introduced Michelob Jack's Pumpkin Spice Ale in 2005 and MolsonCoors ( TAP) countered with with Harvest Moon ale in 2006 before rebranding it as Harvest Pumpkin Ale this year. All brewers are being taxed by that demand, as Maine-based Shipyard Brewing cranked up production of its Pumpkinhead ale from 2,100 barrels in 2002 to 30,000 last year while extending Pumpkinhead season from August-through-October to August-through-Thanksgiving to deal with peak demand around the fall holidays. The jump in number of brewers making pumpkin ale is the other reason the style is so visible in late summer. There were only about 1,600 breweries in America back in 2009, but there are more than 2,000 now and roughly 1,300 in the planning stages, according to the Beer Association craft beer industry group. That's a lot more craft beer flowing into the marketplace, and it's increased the chances a pumpkin beer of some sort will be coming to a bar or store cooler near you. Prev 0 of 4 Next

Newbie here, please be gentle.
I'm using this theme:
And the client wants it to look like that. However, the slideshow is anchored to the top -- under the horizontal menu. It also overlays the quote -- which is in the default position.
Any suggestions to get the thumbnails to lay lower right (as in the theme demo) and to get the whole thing off the quote field?
Many thanks!

Children's LiteratureThis book gives a good overview of the basic information students need when preparing social studies reports about Washington state. The clean layout incorporates extra tidbits of information in callouts, with sidebars, photographs and illustrations adding to the visual interest. Terms are explained clearly in the text itself, with a supplemental glossary included in the back. Other text access features include maps, a timeline, a clear table of contents, and a thorough index. Photographs are used throughout but the choice of photos and the accompanying captions do little to add value to the book (for instance, a photo of a cross country skier in downtown Seattle doesn't point out how rare it would be for there to be snow in that city; a photo taken on Mount Rainier doesn't show the grandeur of this 14,410 foot peak, nor does the caption mention its height or that it's a volcano). A nice two-page spread succinctly lists the state's almanac information (chief crops, population, and so on) as well as the flag, motto, flower, and other icons of the state. This book does a good job of covering all parts Washington state, something particularly admirable when so many other books concentrate mostly on the western part of the state. Librarians from both sides of the state served as consultants on this solid book. Part of the "From Sea to Shining Sea" Series. 2003, Children's Press/Scholastic Inc, Ages 8 to 12.

Thoughts are with Bucknell, St. Joseph's Prep (Pa.), and the family of Joe Walsh, a 19-year-old freshman with the Bison lacrosse team who died last week.
The university president informed students at Bucknell over the weekend, saying the school has offered assistance to his teammates and friends at the school. The team and university are respecting the wishes of the family for privacy and declined to comment.
The community and friends have rallied in support on Twitter with the hashtag #KeepOnSmiling since he passed away near his home in Philadelphia last week.
The incoming freshman was a three-year letterwinner at St. Joseph's Prep, earning All-Catholic first-team honors his senior year with 56 points. He was slated to swing between attack and midfield at Bucknell.

Modex 2012: Creform products enhance lean initiatives
February 06, 2012 - MMH Editorial
A new automatic guided vehicle (AGV) drive unit, AGV cart tugger and heavy-duty pipe system for constructing structures such as workstations, flowracks, carts and AGVs are on display at Creform's exhibit (Booth 4705).
"These products help manufacturers strengthen their lean and continuous improvement programs," said Keith Soderlund, Creform's VP of Sales.
The BST NSI AGV tugger's sophisticated control system can mobilize an entire fleet of carts for up to 50 courses (128 commands each) and is programmable by onboard touchscreen or PC, noted Soderlund. "It can also be part of a managed AGV system with traffic control. These units are ideal for delivering carts of sequenced or kitted parts to assembly lines with very little human interface," he said.
Also on display, the company's modular building system employs 42 mm pipe for enhanced strength, requiring less material and fewer joints for bracing to meet strength requirements. The system is compatible with accessories, including an Ergo-Lift system and roller conveyors.
Modex 2012 is scheduled to be held February 6-9, 2012 in Atlanta's Georgia World Congress Center. The tradeshow will showcase the latest manufacturing, distribution and supply chain solutions in the material handling and logistics industry. Modern's complete Modex 2012 coverage.

I was to find out that John had ideas far grander than simply remote editing and posting of articles and photographs. I love a challenge, and to be able to watch a master like John at work and assist in anyway possible is privilege.

Released: Feb 01st, 2006
Running Time: 105
Company: Cherry Boxxx Pictures
Cast: Nubia, Candice (I), Mya Mason, Juicy, Jasmine (I), Others
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Gonzo
Bashful when the camera starts, these freakz lose inhibitions quickly and display veteran fuck skills beyond their "teenage" characters.
Shy Jasmine stays on the bed, but Mya Mason is all over the room and furniture (even standing up). Dark-skinned Juicy takes a glistening frontal load, while Nubia turns the other cheek to get ass plastered. Only Candice seems indifferent to her suitor in these typical boy/girl pairings.
PS: Make sure to watch the opening penis enlargement infomercial.
Retailing: Series continues with typical boy/girl action, but not much "teen" focus.
