The Year of Fog by Michelle Richmond
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This book is about Abby, a photographer in San Francisco, who is engaged to Jake. She's at the beach with her fiance's daughter, Emma, when in one critical moment, she looks away and Emma goes missing. This book follows Abby's search for Emma.
Though the storyline had promise, I felt the author failed to deliver. For me, this was a very slow read as I didn't really think the author created any sense of urgency. The narration was "distant" and had a dreamlike ("foggy") tone to it that only made the lack of action and passion more apparent. The story is told first-person by Abby, who is (to me) unlikable, whiny and self-absorbed. Emma is missing and she's often more concerned with how it is going to affect her relationship with Jake.
The book is about twice as long as it needs to be. There are tangents and backstories for Abby that are mostly pointless. I kept reading because I wanted to find out what happened by Emma more than because the story was gripping and intense.
Overall, the book was ok
Rating: 2.5
a bantam discovery, listed in My Best Friend's Girl
amazing! what seems like a simple story, not much different than an episode of Law & Order, turns into a fulfilling journey. her choice to tell the story in first person draws the reader right into the mindset of the narrator. i finished this book in the grocery store parking lot because i couldn't even wait to reach the resolution. beautifully written - i will gladly seek other books by this author.
Abby Mason is about to be married to Jake and part of that package involves being stepmother to Emma. Abby has already fallen in love with the little girl. While on a quiet, foggy walk on the beach Abby is momentarily distracted and when she turns around Emma is gone. The book tells the story of what something like that does to an individual, a relationship and the community in general. The most heart wrenching part of this book is the total despair that the author makes us feel for Abby as she suffers through having made one lapse in judgment that held the most severe of consequences.
I must say that I nearly didn't pick this book at the library as the cover screamed 'chick lit' at me however I am so glad that I did. It grabbed me from the very beginning the first chapter sets the tone very well and I must say that I found it hard to put down.
I found the comparison between photography and film development and memory very telling and a useful tool that added to my enjoyment of the novel. Given the nature of the theme it could have felt very exploitative and crass but this was not the case at all.
My only quibbles are slight ones. 1) Where does she find the money to do what she does in her search for Emma? As she is a freelance photographer she has no regular income and I would have thought that she would soon have run out of money to persue all the lines of enquiry. 2) I found the resolution to the mystery a little too convenient, surely the police would have treated the person found to be behind the disapperence as a suspect just as much as Abby and Jake were so why was this not the case.
But that said I found the story to be gripping and I really empathised with Abby and the plight she found herself in. I highly recommend it.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0385340125, Paperback)Life changes in an instant. On a foggy beach. In the seconds when Abby Mason—photographer, fiancée soon-to-be-stepmother—looks into her camera and commits her greatest error. Heartbreaking, uplifting, and beautifully told, here is the riveting tale of a family torn apart, of the search for the truth behind a child's disappearance, and of one woman's unwavering faith in the redemptive power of love—all made startlingly fresh through Michelle Richmond's incandescent sensitivity and extraordinary insight.
Six-year-old Emma vanished into the thick San Francisco fog. Or into the heaving Pacific. Or somewhere just beyond: to a parking lot, a stranger's van, or a road with traffic flashing by. Devastated by guilt, haunted by her fears about becoming a stepmother, Abby refuses to believe that Emma is dead. And so she searches for clues about what happened that morning—and cannot stop the flood of memories reaching from her own childhood to illuminate that irreversible moment on the beach.
Now, as the days drag into weeks, as the police lose interest and fliers fade on telephone poles, Emma's father finds solace in religion and scientific probability—but Abby can only wander the beaches and city streets, attempting to recover the past and the little girl she lost. With her life at a crossroads, she will leave San Francisco for a country thousands of miles away. And there, by the side of another sea, on a journey that has led her to another man and into a strange subculture of wanderers and surfers, Abby will make the most astounding discovery of all—as the truth of Emma's disappearance unravels with stunning force.
A profoundly original novel of family, loss, and hope—of the choices we make and the choices made for us—The Year of Fog beguiles with the mysteries of time and memory even as it lays bare the deep and wondrous workings of the human heart. The result is a mesmerizing tour de force that will touch anyone who knows what it means to love a child.

After the Lord had spoken he went up into heaven. Sitting is a posture of rest, he had finished his work; and a posture of rule, he took possession of his kingdom. He sat at the right hand of God, which denotes his sovereign dignity and universal power. Whatever God does concerning us, gives to us, or accepts from us, it is by his Son. Now he is glorified with the glory he had before the world. The apostles went forth, and preached every where, far and near. Though the doctrine they
preached was spiritual and heavenly, and directly contrary to the spirit and temper of the world; though it met with much opposition, and was wholly destitute of all worldly supports and advantages; yet in a few years the sound went forth unto the ends of the earth. Christ's ministers do not now need to work miracles to prove their message; the Scriptures are proved to be of Divine origin, and this renders those without excuse who reject or neglect them. The effects of the gospel, when
faithfully preached, and truly believed, in changing the tempers and characters of mankind, form a constant proof, a miraculous proof, that the gospel is the power of God unto salvation, of all who believe.

Kathleen Shaw makes her usual meal of bread and cheese, feeling her way from the kitchen into the lounge where she will force herself to eat a little. She used to enjoy cooking and loved to eat while sitting outside in her garden. But she's now a prisoner in her own home.
Mrs Shaw went blind in June, 18 months after she was first diagnosed with a curable eye disease. Her local hospital had refused to pay for a sight-saving drug until it was approved by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (Nice).
Last week Nice ruled that the drug Lucentis should be prescribed on the NHS to treat "wet" age-related macular degenaration, which affects 26,000 new patients every year.
Like many of her generation, Mrs Shaw, 85, a retired primary school teacher from Kent, supported the NHS from the start, 60 years ago. But her beloved NHS did nothing when she became a victim of bureaucracy. The decision came too late for her. She gradually lost the sight in both eyes, while Nice spent two years deciding whether the drug was value for money.
In the time it took to make the decision, her life changed irrevocably. A healthy, independent woman who drove miles to visit her grandchildren is now groping around at home trying not to bump into the door frame.
When The Independent on Sunday first interviewed Mrs Shaw, last August, she was angry but remained hopeful. Bromley Primary Care Trust had rejected medical advice from an eye specialist and refused to pay for her treatment. It insisted on waiting for Nice's decision while other trusts around the country decided to go ahead and pay for the drug, which ophthalmologists were excitedly endorsing.
Mrs Shaw was certain the decision to pay for the drug would come in time to save her eyes. But despite help from the Macular Disease Society, both her appeals were rejected – and there was still no decision from Nice. Now she can barely see her own hands, and feels dejected.
Last week Mrs Shaw said: "I am so angry at Nice for taking so long and taking away my independence. I was there cheering on the NHS right from the start, but I have nothing to thank it for. I was a teacher for 35 years, paid all my taxes, and this is the first time I've ever really needed the NHS. Yet they have sat back and let me go blind."
Lucentis costs nearly £900 per injection and patients can need up to 15 monthly doses, though most need far fewer. It is expensive, but stops the majority of sufferers from going blind.
Nice has publicly apologised, but said it needed two years to consult and consider all the evidence. Mrs Shaw believes the Government would have stepped in had this been a younger person's disease.
"I truly believe this is political," she said. "The elderly are just not seen as important, so who cares about people like me?"
The Government instructs Nice to fast-track some new drugs, a process it introduced after delay in approving the breast cancer drug Herceptin led to widespread criticism of Nice. But thousands of patients waited years before new treatments for Alzheimer's and brittle bone disease were finally approved.
Tom Bembridge, from the Mascular Disease Society, said: "Because this disease doesn't kill, isn't painful and affects older people, there has been a lack of urgency. The fact people have been left to go blind has caused far less outrage than young women with breast cancer being denied drugs."
Mrs Shaw's weight has dropped from eight stone (50kg) to six and a half (41kg) in the year since the IoS last spoke to her. She can no longer read food labels, cook or even use the microwave. She doesn't want to become a burden, but the determination in her voice has started to waver.
She said: "I miss being a free agent, going out, seeing my family and friends. I miss my garden. This has made me old. I could be an independent woman but now I'm just an old woman."

text: Thanks for attacking me the other night Anonymous for NO REASON. I guess I should have listened to everyone who said you were nuts (believe me it was literally everyone who has ever met you). Maybe I should have stopped being friends with you after the first time you attacked me. When you bit me so hard you took a 1/4" piece of flesh out of my lower back putting me in the hospital for a week with a bacterial blood infection (you got one DIRTY MOUTH)! Or the second time you put me in the hospital when you stabbed me with a pair of foot long fabric scissors (no ever said you weren't SHARP)! I sure as hell won't be seeing you again after tonight when you attacked me for trying to return your library DVDs. Everyone was right you crazy! Enjoy your broken iPhone 5s and dying alone. Your mom can't pay you rent forever.

"BRIXTON, a pleasant village, 4½ miles E. of Plymouth, has in its parish 822 souls, and 2865 acres of fertile land, bounded on the south-east by the Yealm estuary, and including the small hamlets of Spriddleston, Hareston, Winston, and Coombe. The manor of Brixton, anciently called Britricheston, was long held by a family of its own name, but was dismembered many years ago. T.W. Parrott, Esq., is lord of the manor of Hareston, which he derived from the Winters. This manor was successively held by the Reynald, Hareston, Silverlock, and Wood families. . . . Mr. Elliott is lord of the manor of Spriddleston, which has been held successively by the Spriddle, Fortescue, Lane, and other families. E.R.P. Bastard and Sir T.T.F.E. Drake own a great part of the parish, the former having Wollaton, and the latter the Sherford estate.

All I want is to be hold,
on this lonely night thats so cold.
But, instead I lay here alone, lost, confused, at home.
I just wanna be loved, I pray one day god will send me that from up above.
I want someone to love me, but here I lay stuck in misery. I shed so many tears,
not finding love is what I deeply fear.
Being alone in the dark, is causing me to fall apart.
Im on a path that I cant escape, stuck in this miserable life, I hate.

The Spice Bible by Jane Lawson reveals the world of spices, including Allspice, Coriander, and Star Anise; with recipes like Cypriot Pork and Coriander Stew, Vietnamese Beef Pho, and Lamb Kibbeh.
by Jane Lawson
also known as Chinese anise
Arguably the spice world's most beautiful member, star anise takes the form of an eightpointed star, with each spoke containing an ellipselike compartment holding a single seed.
Actually the fruit of a tree native to Southern China, star anise is harvested when the fruit is unripe and then dried. Their fragile make-up means that it tends to break during handling—however, although this is aesthetically not as appealing, it doesn't compromise the flavor.
It is a major ingredient in many of China's braised dishes, as well as master stocks, and is one of the essential spices in five-spice (page 394 of the book). It is also integral to Vietnam's classic beef noodle soup, pho.
Star anise has a warm, woody, aniseed flavor, and is, somewhat surprisingly, 13 times sweeter than sugar. So, although pairing beautifully with many Asian meat dishes, it is also finding an identity in contemporary cooking in sweet dishes, such as fruit and custard desserts.

|2 - 6 nights
New owners, Jim and Pat, have just upgraded the decor of this delightful condo. The previous owners had completely renovated our living area and kitchen in the fall of 2010 to modern standards. Our 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo is within the Camino Real Zaashila Resort with full access to all hotel amenities. We have an ocean view and sunset view from our private plunge pool (14 X 18 feet), just off our living room. Patio doors fold completely into the walls so the living room extends onto our patio and pool area - beautiful any time of day!!!
The Camino Real is situated on its own secluded beach in Tangolunda Bay. There are 3 restaurants, 2 bars, an enormous freeform pool, beach palapas, beach bar service, jet ski/kayak/sailing rentals onsite, Spa services beachside, travel concierge onsite, 24 hour room service....Everything you need in one location. Check in like a hotel guest, but with all the amenities of a home.
Our condo has a full kitchen complete with fridge/freezer, range, oven, microwave, wine fridge, and all the appliances and essentials for ease of cooking. The master bedroom is extremely large with full ensuite and private lanai with hammock for siesta time. The second bedroom has a new queen bed complete with flat screen TV/DVD combo and armoire. Our living room is complete with large flat screen TV, blue-ray DVD player, and DVD library.
Come and enjoy our little piece of paradise!
Jim and Pat are retired Canadians living in British Columbia. After searching for 'snowbird' properties in the Huatulco area, they fell in love with this condo and bought it. They have now spent their second winter enjoying their lovely private space within the beautiful Camino Real Zaashila beach resort. Pat and Jim are happy to share their piece of paradise when they cannot be there themselves.
Jim Howard purchased this condo in 2012
This condo stood out from the other properties Jim and Pat reviewed because of its convenient location near the two Huatulco towns of Santa Cruz and La Crucecita while being far enough away from the hustle and bustle to enjoy peace and quiet at home and within the beautiful resort property. Access to the resort's private beach and pools as well as the hotel amenities like daily maid service, room service, restaurants and bars, was a big attraction.
The Camino Real Zaashila resort is a special place with its Mediterranean architecture, lush grounds, and beautiful setting on its own beach on Tangolunda Bay. The condo nests delightfully within this distinctive environment. The condo itself is spacious and attractive with partial sea views. The private plunge pool is a special feature, big enough to frolic in while cooling off. The nested sliding doors create a wide opening between the living room and the patio/pool, merging indoor and outdoor living.
Huatulco continues to be one of our favorite destinations. Our time there this year did not disappoint. The two of us stayed in Jim and Pat's condo for 12 days. The condo is in very nice condition; nicely updated compared to some other units in this unique Camino Real hotel/condo complex. Pat's decorating is also lovely. The colors are bright and fresh; she has used iocal artwork, bedding and linens. We loved sitting outdoors on the comfortable patio by the private large plunge pool at breakfast and in the evening,
The kitchen is well equipped and we enjoyed cooking most of our meals there. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious. JIm and Pat have thoughtfully provided everything that you need including a nice selection of books, movies and games.
The condo offers a challenging hike to the top of the resort which is built on a steep hillside but the view from the top is definitely worth it. Of course, there is always a golf cart with a friendly staff to drive you up and down if you decide you are not up to the climb! And, the staff at the Camino are so friendly, kind and helpful. We loved our stay and can't wait to return. Thank you Jim and Pat.
Great condo, great location and a wonderful staff.
My family and I stayed at Jim's condo for 2 weeks and enjoyed every minute of our vacation.
The condo comes well equipped with everything one would need to cook a variety of meals.
The splash pool on the balcony is amazing. My 2 year old son loved the splash pool and the main pool by the ocean. The Camino Real is well looked after and shade is easy to find at all hours of the day. The staff is amazing. Absolutely no complaints. We will be back again.
Thank you Jim for everything.
Great condo at a great resort. By far the most friendly staff in all of Mexico. Will return again next year.
My husband and I visited Huatulco for the first time and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We are frequent travellers of many destinations. When I sent an email to Jim he responded immediately, there was no wait time. And price point was perfect for a pre-Christmas vacation. We wanted to fully relax and it was easy to do.
There are lots of activities in the area if you want some action. We took a jet ski out for one morning and it was a blast. They gave us snorkel gear and a map and off we went to check out the bays that were only accessible with water crafts. We didn't snorkel, but during the ride we saw turtles, sting rays and even had a dolphin swim around us. What a time we had!
The condo was fully complete with everything you need and then some. We had coffee every morning on the patio and enjoyed the plunge pool every afternoon after the hot sunny days. I can't say enough about the staff at this resort. Housekeeping was there everyday and there was nothing they didn't miss along with the pool boy. He took great pride in the pool and always had a giant smile! We speak hardly any Spanish and we had excellent interaction with all the staff. Between the charades and broken Spanish we always made the conversation fun.
In regards to the restaurants and wait staff, everything was over the top. They were so helpful and you can tell the enjoyed their jobs. Every meal we ate there was excellent. As for walking around the resort it was quite the trek up to the condo everyday, as the hills are pretty steep. However that didn't stop us from enjoying the walk. The staff will accommodate you if you need help or a ride up.
We took a taxi from the condo to visit La Crucecita (sp) and it was so easy. We just walked a short distance to the taxi stand and they had us on our way. The ride to the town was very short and they take you directly to the main tourist area. The drivers are familiar with all the places that you request and there is always a taxi no matter where you are to get you back to the condo. We never once felt uncomfortable anywhere. Jim offers plenty of recommendations to restaurants and grocery stores.
I certainly look forward to returning here. I guarantee I will be in touch with Jim to make that happen as he took great care of us any time we needed him.
Thank you Jim and Pat for letting us enjoy your piece of paradise!!
Exclusive Bay, Large well equipped pool with loungers and umbrellas. beautiful beach with loungers and palapas. Two beach front Restaurants, plus pop-up restaurant on the sand, and bar. Great condo with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen, dining area, living room and two patios. living room has pocket doors that completely open up to the private plunge pool. Daily maid service kept it clean and tidy. Excellent staff.
Very steep road up to the Condo. Golf cart available at no charge, although a small tip is always appreciated. Drop off on the beach made swimming difficult, if not impossible for less than strong swimmers.
Short walk to snack bar, laundry store, restaurants. 40 pesos, incl. tip, taxi ride to Town Centre or great beach in Santa Cruz.
Life isn't perfect but this holiday came very close to it !
My husband retired late last year so I booked this wonderful place for the month of November 2014 to get him in retirement mode. This beautiful place did just that. It is quiet and peaceful. October is the end of the rainy season so all the foliage was lush and full. The grounds are constantly groomed and fabulous. The ocean is just steps from the quiet secluded pool and the ocean breezes help to cool the entire area. The condo is homey yet exotic. Very comfortable. The resort staff can't do enough for you. One month went so fast. We also had a great time in the town area. Lots of fun markets and upscale shopping as well. Fun outside cantinas abound.
Condo is part of a beautiful beachfront hotel property (Camino Real Zaashila) with some services available nearby with easy taxi access to the two towns La Crucecita and Santa Cruz.

Australia: "The next Golden State?"
Is Australia the next golden state? That is a question recently posed by an article published in the Econ0mist.
Australia today is a lot "like California 30 years ago," proclaimed the Economist. "Yet," they argue, "Australia could become a sort of California—and perhaps a still more successful version of the Golden State."But they argue to change a seemingly winning formula by instituting new regulations that would cause the country to suffer the exact challenges facing California.
While the Economist is correct that Australia's economic potential is vast and the business climate is thriving, the Economist's prescription for an even brighter future for Aussies would ironically condemn Australia to the same tarnish that California, the once-Golden State, now faces today.
As the Economist correctly notes, Australia is thriving because of good economic policies and tremendous natural resources.
It already has a successful economy, which unlike California's has avoided recession since 1991, and a political system that generally serves it well. It is benefiting from a resources bonanza that brings it quantities of money for doing no more than scraping up minerals and shipping them to Asia. It is the most pleasant rich country to live in, reports a survey this week by the OECD. And, since Asia's appetite for iron ore, coal, natural gas and mutton shows no signs of abating, the bonanza seems set to continue for a while, even if it is downgraded to some lesser form of boom (see article). However, as our special report in this issue makes clear, the country's economic success owes much less to recent windfalls than to policies applied over the 20 years before 2003. Textbook economics and sound management have truly worked wonders.
Unfortunately the Economist article advocates for such things as specific tax increases and a comprehensive global warming policy from lawmakers in Australia. In particular the article chastises the political leadership in the country for what they called "mishandling" a tax on mining and resisting the implementation carbon tax. Ironically, California has passed environmental laws, similar to what the Economist seemingly advocates for in Australia, and they have hurt growth in California. In particular, California's AB 32, landmark global warming bill, has caused tremendous challenges for business in the state.
If policymakers in Australia took the advice of the Economist, it would immediately stall the country's growth especially considering, as the Economist noted, the thriving exports of minerals from Australia to parts of Asia.
But the Economist is not all wrong, especially on two points. First, government is not answer for a bristling society. Great societies with thriving economic climates, "the ones in which young and enterprising people want to live, cannot be conjured up overnight by a single agent, least of all by government," according to the Economist.
Also, Australian lawmakers should be more welcoming of the benefits of immigration. "Instead of pointing to the great benefits of immigration—population growth is responsible for about two-fifths of the increase in real GDP in the past 40 years—the two parties pander shamelessly to xenophobic fears about asylum-seekers washing up in boats."
Of course Australia has its own challenges on issues of personal liberty and sound public policy. While noticeably business friendly, politically, the country demonstrates, on occasion, a streak commonly found in social democracies which believe government is the answer. An example of that is government health care in the country. Also, as my colleague Steve Greenhut of the Pacific Research Institute notes, the country has a ways to go on property rights.
Nonetheless, Australia's economy is bristling and that is due to business friendly policies. While there is room for improvement, onerous regulations and new taxes should be resisted if Australia intends to avoid the pitfalls of California.

Like watching rugby with your mates? Then throw a rugby party!Enjoy having a few friends round to watch the big match together? Ever think it might be fun to make a bit more of a party of it? You've come to the right place!
The whole aim of this site is to give you some ideas and resources to help you throw a rugby party with your friends. Yes, you could just turn the TV on and hope somebody remembers to bring a few lagers with them. Somewhere at the back of the cupboard there's a packet of cheese and onion crisps you haven't eaten yet, right? OR, you could go to town a bit, and for very little money turn the whole thing into a party that everyone will remember.
It doesn't take a lot of effort to decorate the room in the colours of the team you're cheering for. There are countless sources of flags, bunting, scarves, shirts and other ways to decorate your room (or yourself!) available, and we'll try to link you up with some of them. Or take it a step further, and find some wine or beer from the nations involved. One thing we've got loads of on this site is recipes from around the world, so whether you're a budding chef or a bit of a novice in the kitchen, there should be something here that will give your rugby party some culinary pizazz!
Of course, there's nothing to stop you using the ideas on this site for a party that's not strictly rugby-related. But if you are having a few mates round to watch the game, why not make the most of the occasion?!
And if you have any ideas to add to this site, please Get In Touch.
Throwing a Rugby Party? Plan ahead!OK, there are some pretty good reasons for throwing a rugby-themed party this year, but it's not going to just magically happen on it's own. A little advance planning will help create a party to remember.
Here are some of the things to think about:

As we clambered out, another car, a vast chrome monster, swung round in front of the Vauxhall and stopped, pulsating with reggae, its braking announced not discreetly on its bumper but in coloured neon lights all round the rear window.
An extremely big man got out and walked towards us, drinking from a beer bottle. 'Hey Chambers,' said Patrick, 'I pick up a flat.' We all stood studying his rear wheel, and it didn't look quite right.
It soon became clear that Chambers was going to take over the job of driving us, which was unsettling. One of us made feeble noises about drinking and driving, another expressed gallant reluctance to leave a man alone changing a wheel, and I felt scared. This was, after all, Jamaica, said to be a dangerous place, and a very lonely part of it too. Hadn't Chambers turned up suspiciously conveniently? Was that tyre really flat? Could this turn into highway robbery or worse? But, whatever we thought, we were British, so, rather than cause embarrassment, we did as we were told.
This was, after all, Jamaica, where first impressions are often wrong. Inside the monstrous 1972 Chevy sat Mrs Chambers, cuddling four- year-old Dominique and three- year-old Sabrina. It was a family outing and they were off to the carnival in Falmouth. And why the carnival today? That question earned real scorn: why, because it was Ash Wednesday, when everybody with any sense begins his Lenten observances as he means to go on, dancing all night on the beach.
Yet even now, our relief at the domestic nature of the outing was short-lived. Chambers drove as if pursued by ravening wolves. It was too frightening to think about, so I concentrated on the unblinking, unbothered, unparalleled beauty of little Sabrina and just hoped to survive.
WHEN you fly into Montego Bay, the first thing you notice are the signs. One alarming one tells you to stop, lest you import some hideous plague called Newcastle Disease: this might happen if you carry steaks, chicken, ham, sausages or chops. Another announces that there are fewer then 100 sea-cows in Jamaica and urges travellers to help save them. I resolved to do my bit for the sea-cow, but, lacking specific instructions, the opportunity never seemed to arise.
We did avoid damaging a manta ray. This huge black-and-white fish rippled facetiously through the clear turquoise water, right up to the shore on our first night. It must have been six feet across (honestly) and its ruffled sides contrasted with the awesome grand canyon of its mouth. But they said there was nothing to be afraid of, that those things in its jaws were not teeth, merely 'grinding slabs', so that was OK.
There are signs everywhere. In the bar at Discovery Bay is a notice about drinking-up time, threatening a fine of pounds 100 if the 1960 licensing laws are infringed. Happily, the threat was empty, but the notice, like others we saw, pointing to the Mansion House or the Guildhall, or announcing that 'The PTA of St Hilda's High School invites you to a Valentine's Day Parish barbecue and dance', can make you believe for a mad minute or two that you are in England on a summer's day 20 years ago.
Driving on the left along narrow lanes with road signs straight from an old Frankie Howerd film, the grassy banks entangled vith vetch, a small herd of cows lumbering through a gate in front of you, it could be Cornwall. A Jamaican we met confirmed this feeling, saying that in the West Country he felt really at home.
But just past the cows is a field of sugar cane, and further up the road a coconut grove. Higher still, the famous Blue Mountain coffee is growing, each little bush shaded by a huge plantain. And it's only some of the signs that could in England. I've never seen an English school that boasted 'Enter to learn - leave literate'. Then again, not many English houses ask you to Bawray of Bad Dog. And few British hairdressers offer - as does Dian's House of Beauty - creaming, dry curling and beauty from head to toe, all provided in a little corrugated-iron roadside shack.
High in the mountains, an even smaller and flimsier hut, miles from anywhere, advertises electrical repairs, but there is no sign of electricity, nor even of running water. Instead, the hillside is decorated with a large triangle of concrete that funnels into a small shed. Here the tropical rain collects and descends into a 'parish tank': tiny children walk miles to fill buckets from these tanks and carry them home, often on their heads. As we pass, each child smiles and waves. Few tourists go up there.
Near the cockpit country, in the District of Look Behind, not far from Me No Sen You No Come and a few miles past Wait a Bit, a stone at the roadside recalls an Act of God: 'At this point the Reverend Spratt fell from his horse on July 18th 1883 which resulted in his death a few hours later. Be ye watchful also.'
We took the warning to heart and reluctantly gave up our quest. We had been looking for the Maroons, a band of people descended from slaves who had broken away from Spanish - and later English - rule to form an autonomous community somewhere near Accompong. Though we asked many people where and how they lived, answers were always vague and nobody even knew anyone who had found them. So still the only person I know who has been into their stronghold is my father who, as a young surveyor in the Thirties, walked calmly through their gates and made such friends with their leader that he was offered, as a gift, a 14-year-old virgin.
Confused as to the etiquette of the situation and anxious not to cause offence, he asked for time to consider and was told: 'Come back soon, she won't keep.'
Mention of the Maroons still causes a frisson of fear. The same sensation is provoked by Annie Palmer, the white witch of Rose Hill. Though long since dead, she walks her old plantation house every night. Nobody visits after six. She is said to have strangled three husbands and been murdered by her slave Tacu, who might have been her fourth. Dead but refusing to lie down, she belongs with the other supernatural women of the coast.
One, an old fortune-teller called Time Time, can cure any ailment; another, whose name sounded like Modest Cat, is the one to use if you are in trouble and end up in court. She will find a way of getting you off, but only for the first offence: after that you're on your own.
I asked several people about the levels of crime on the island. The most interesting answers came from an English zoologist and a Jamaican economist. The zoologist had lived in Kingston for 40 years. In the Seventies, he recalled, the Government had flirted with Cuban communism and Jamaica had gone through a bad period of instability, violence and emigration. Since then, almost imperceptibly, more peaceful times had returned. The economist said that the proximity of the Miami drug culture was part of the trouble.
Both agreed that, outside Kingston, there was nothing to fear. Tourism is vital to the economy, and we even heard the radio reminding people to be nice to tourists. They really don't need reminding. Jamaicans are very religious, proud of having more churches per head than anywhere else in the world, and, as a Seventh-Day Adventist explained, if you expect the end of the world any minute, you are always on your best behaviour.
So it seemed on the north coast, where the welcome is warm and the beaches are unspoilt, uncrowded and beautiful. There are clusters of modern hotels, but Marbella it isn't. You can take a raft and float down the Rio Grande, or a small boat out to a coral reef and see practically nobody else all day. You can eat wonderful ackee-
and-saltfish, curried goat, rice-and- peas, sweet potatoes, and every imaginable fruit for very little money (or drink rum punch for slightly more).
There are rather more people about at Ocho Rios, where the challenge is to climb the long succession of waterfalls at Dunn's River. It is terrifying trying to keep a foothold in the torrents of icy water, and only the sight of an elderly American further up convinced us that it was possible at all, but I know nothing to beat the sense of incredulous achievement you get when you emerge.
Back in the bar on the last night, our friend Donovan Washington Sinclair was teaching us the language. There's a good word for expressing how fine everything is. It is 'irie', pronounced almost like iris. If things are even better than irie, you could say they were 'coppercertic' - come to think of it, all the words we learnt were ways of expressing how good life can be. That is probably because in Jamaica, as they say, 'All the fruit's ripe, man, you only have to shake the tree'.
Getting there: Major tour operators, flushed with their success at selling Florida, are now turning their sights to promoting the Caribbean as a mass- market destination. Operators such as Thomson and Airtours are now running year round charter flights to a part of the world that has always been considered to be too hot in the summer (they should have known that it can never be too hot for the British) and too expensive in the winter (declining business from North America has persuaded Caribbean hoteliers to set cheaper rates). Thomson, for example, has charters to the Dominican Republic, Barbados, St Lucia and Jamaica with seat-only deals from around pounds 400. Airtours (0706 260000) has charters to Antigua, Barbados and Jamaica; it has seat-only deals from Gatwick or Manchester to Montego Bay - on 11 July, for example, a 14-night seat- only deal costs pounds 299. Unijet (0444 458611) has charter flights to Montego Bay and has been offering late availability deals from as little as pounds 200 return. Faced with this competition the scheduled airlines BA (0345 222111) and BWIA (071-839 9333) are taking a more aggressive attitude to pricing: if bookings are slow they will cut prices to around pounds 300 return - ask if they have any 'seat sales' running.
Flights: The best way of seeing the Caribbean islands cheaply is to buy an airpass. The two main passes are offered by the Trinidad and Tobago-based airline BWIA (071-839 9333) and the main inter- island airline LIAT (represented in the UK by British Airways (0345 222111). The BWIA pass costs USdollars 356 (roughly pounds 237) for an unlimited pass valid for 30 days. To get the pass you don't need to travel to the Caribbean with BWIA but you must book and pay for your airpass trip before you leave the UK.
The LIAT pass must also be bought in the UK - and it must be purchased in conjunction with a BA ticket. LIAT has three main deals: a three-island ticket, to be used in 21 days, which costs USdollars 199 ( pounds 132), a five-island ticket for USdollars 300 ( pounds 200) and an unlimited 30-day pass which costs USdollars 367 ( pounds 244). The LIAT pass covers even the smallest islands, from the Grenadines up to San Juan, Puerto Rico. Covering every Caribbean island in the lifetime of a 30-day airpass must come close to the perfect holiday.
Money: While the islands have their own currency - Barbados has its own dollar, for example, and the Windward Islands have the East Caribbean dollar - nearly all traders are keen to conduct transactions in US dollars; and since most people have relatives in the UK, British pounds don't receive the incredulous response they normally get in other parts of the world. So change the bare minimum into the local currency.
Accommodation: It is easy to find places that cost around pounds 150 per night - but it is also not difficult to find reasonable accommodation in guest houses and bed and breakfast places for around pounds 15 per night. The Caribbean Islands Handbook (Trade and Travel, pounds 12.95) is a reliable guide to accommodation, listing a good range of places at budget prices.
Hurricanes: The most likely month for a hurricane is September and the rest of the autumn can be wet and fly-ridden.

Wildermuth, Ottilie
|Rooschuz, Ottilie
|born on
|22 February 1817 at 13:30 (= 1:30 PM )
|Rottenburg/Neckar, Germany, 48n29, 8e56
|LMT m8e56 (is local mean time)
|Data source
|Astrology data
|03°37' 13°41 Asc. 20°02'
German writer, particularly notable for her children's books.
Wildermuth showed a strong thirst for knowledge early in life and wrote her own stories and poems. In summer 1833 she was allowed to spend six months studying in Stuttgart. In 1843, aged 26, she married the 36-year-old philologist Wilhelm David Wildermuth. After time as a private tutor in France and England, Wilhelm Wildermuth then moved to be a professor of modern languages in the Lyzeum in Tübingen. Ottilie formed the women of Tübingen into a salon, which she belonged to herself for 34 years until her death. From the very beginning the young couple were friends with Ludwig Uhland, the poet Karl Mayer's family, Klüpfl-Schwab and later several university professors. Her varied education also allowed Ottilie to participate in her husband's work - like him, she taught English. They had five children.
In 1847 she sent her first story Die alte Jungfer to the Morgenblatt. Once this had been accepted for publication, she wrote more stories, short stories, novels, biographies, family books, children's history books and idyllic accounts of Protestant Swabian life, in whose circles she moved. Her stories met a public taste and she was printed in the widely-read family periodicals which made her known to other contemporary writers. In 1870 she founded the children's magazine Jugendgarten, later continued by her daughters. In 1871 Ottilie Wildermuth received the great gold medal for Art and Science in Württemberg. In her fiftieth year her health was strongly attacked by a nervous disorder and on 12 July 1877, aged 60, she died of a stroke,in Tübingen.

Karate South Africa
|Legal status
|World Karate Federation
|Leon Beech
The Karate South Africa (KSA) is the governing body of sport karate in South Africa.[1] The KSA was formed in June 2005 after the previous body (KASA) was disbanded by the then Minister of Sport. The new body came into being under the supervision of the South African Sports Council. It has membership to the World Karate Federation (WKF) which is the only body recognised by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and was readmitted to the international arena in 1992. In May 2008, after three years of ups and down, the interim structure was formalised at a General Elections held under the supervision of SASCOC and the current Executive was voted in. The President of the KSA is Leon Beech of and Elias Jacobs of serves as the Secretary General.
History of KSA[edit]
Karate is a martial arts which was introduced in South Africa during 1950 by persons who developed an interest in this eastern culture through reading books and with information received from sailors who visited South African ports. During the early 1960s a few South Africans visited Japan and formally studied the art of karate. This international exposure was reciprocated with the visit by top Japanese karate instructors.[2][3]
These pioneers initiated the development and expansion of karate to what today has become the sixth biggest sport in the country with a membership which exceeds 200 000 with more than 1400 organised clubs throughout South Africa.
On 19 May 1992, the Karate Association of South Africa was formed, unifying karate as a sport among the various national karate bodies which existed. Today, through the initiatives of KASA, all the various styles of karate and provinces are totally unified under one body which controls karate in South Africa.[4]
Karate South Africa was formed in June 2005 after the previous body (KASA) was disbanded by the then Minister of Sport. The new body came into being under the supervision of the South African Sports Council.[5]

The price was also reasonable. Everything arrived within days of placing the order, albeit in two different shipments. I probably should have looked into the spring & hardware kit also, but found one locally. No more squeaks or grinding.

The 55 first aid workers trained in April are now active in their villages providing vital assistance in emergencies and providing on-going health education focusing particularly on helping mothers to improve the nutrition of their young children. For the first time mothers have guidance on how to feed their babies and infants and simple messages can have a marked impact on reducing malnutrition.
Another intervention which KIDS FOR KIDS undertakes to improve the health of children is the provision of mosquito nets as malaria is a major killer of children. We are pleased to report that 436 mosquito nets have been distributed in the last few months to the poorest families which we are supporting in the six villages which have been adopted by KIDS FOR KIDS during 2011/12. Thus 30 households in Elfaki Ali, 52 in Umlayuna, 40 in Seweilinga, 21 in Hilat Khabir, 22 in Amar Jaded and 39 in Mugabil have received mosquito nets with each household receiving 2 mosquito nets. The families have also received training in re-treating the nets to ensure their continued effectiveness. Based on past experience we are hopeful that we shall see a significant reduction in the incidence of malaria amongst the children of these families.
