Le 31 Octobre, le projet initial �tait de visiter le village de Pamamarca mais aucun bus avant 16h30. Donc � la place nous avons fait un tour en ville o� Kajsa s'est �galement achet� un pull en laine d'Alpaca. Bus retour vers Salta � midi. Arriv�e � Salta, nous ...
Iguazu to Salta
... it's hard to know which way to point the camera. The further into the desert we go the better it gets. Horses and cattle everywhere, the open road sides are their paddocks, so we have to keep an eye open for livestock of all shapes and sizes. We had our best empanadas yet, llama meat and it's yum. With wild llamas and donkeys on our road trip, as well as the villages around here, it's like stepping back in time. Fantastic street stalls ( I need a bigger suitcase :)). ...
Jelly Legs
... the next day we first set off to buy our bus tickets on to La Quiaca, on the Bolivian border. This accomplished, we trekked through the town to visit the main attraction - a pre-Inca settlement, lovingly reconstructed in the 1950s and including a Pukara (fortress), shaped like a small pyramid. The ruins were great - small houses with cactus wood roofs, with fantastic views of the colourful valley. On our way back ...
An A-llama-ing Turn of Events
... of you who know me and my food habits, was that every restaurant suddenly based it�s menu around llama! My theory of cuter animals being tastier would be put to the test.
I identified a restaurant where we could see a pe�a (Argentinian folk-music show) and where I could sample Larry the llama, as Hannah had called every single llama we had passed so far, and went back to see how the patient was doing.

... ruins. I knew Alex and Hannah wouldnt be too keen on waiting for me, so I kinda just ran through and took pics and then headed back down.
At the entrance they had a cactus garden and some poor llamas caged up. Some stupid guy was shaking the wire fence yelling at the llamas. I glared at him from behind my sunglasses.....
We hopped in the car and headed another 20km towards Purmamarca to see the 7 coloured mountains!
Crazy cool it was to see ...

If Kim Kardashian can earn $10,000 for tweeting about a company, perhaps the rest of us schmoes at least deserve to earn a bag of chips for the same. Well, now we can.
The Tweet Shop is a retail outlet from Special K that opened this week in London, the brand's first. Rather than money, the shop thrives on the social currency of its patrons. Created by U.K. agency Slice, the new shop was built to promote Special K Cracker Crisps; another first for the brand, a savory snack. Londoners near Soho can visit the shop from 9a.m.-5p.m. until Friday, September 28, pick out a form tweet from a menu of options, and walk out quenched. (Sample form tweet: "Special K has gone savory. 3 flavors to try—salt and balsamic vinegar, sweet chili, sour cream and chives #tweetshop #spons")
These free chips will be sure to tide Twitterers over this week when they're not smacking a political candidate or trying to win an Audi.

Senate Agriculture Committee Chairwoman Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., has released a draft farm bill that would cut spending by $23 billion. The bill is similar to a measure that cleared the Senate last year on a 64-35 vote.

Created attachment 445644 [details] [diff] [review]
Per Gavin's IRC comment.
This patch also catches another couple of nits while I'm in the area.
I'm curious as to why the additional delay is necessary in the first place; I'll admit to being guilty in essentially copying the template of Mano and Gavin's existing tests when I started adding findbar tests of my own. I've pushed a patch to try with s/onload="executeSoon(startTest);"/onload="startTest();"/ which doesn't seem to have caused any ill effects. Unless there's a compelling reason otherwise, I'll change that next, along with the findbar tests with a setTimeout(_delayedonLoad).
Comment on attachment 445644 [details] [diff] [review]

I guess this didn't have any negative effects because we only trigger the one load, and this window is closed at the end of the test anyways? Is there any point in removing the listener then? Doesn't hurt, I guess, but bug331215_window.xul doesn't remove its listener - probably best to be consistent.

Card Games
Special Decks
Original game from 1919. Published by Parker Brothers 1947 and later edition by Winning Moves. For 3-8 players and takes about 90 minutes to play. From age 7 and up. The game is based on the exciting scenes of the American Corn Exchange. There are nine cards each of Barley, Corn, Coffee, Oranges, Oats, Soy, Sugar, or Wheat. The idea is to obtain, by trading, all nine cards of any one kind. If you do this, you have a CORNER. If you corner Wheat, (by getting all nine Wheat Cards), you get 100 points; Corn, 75 points; Oats, 60 points, etc., as indicated on the cards. The game is 500 points.

This day trip was a highlight of the time we spent in Central Australia. Coming face to face with art work that dates back 22,000 was incredibly humbling. The trip does as it says, and takes you deep into the desert, so be prepared for 3 hours of travel each way, with a significant amount on corrugated dirt road, but the trip is worth every bump! It's part of the experience :).
We were privileged to have an indigenous host explain the story associated with Cave Hill, which added to the whole and Luke our driver/guide handled everything easily and . A very rewarding day.

My husband and I traveled with our 12 years old twin boys, we found the tour very long as it took us away from Ayers Rock. 3 hours each way to Cave Hill and most on unpaved roads. Seeing the outback by AWD was interesting as we watched for wildlife, only to see a pack of Dingos, and a Thorny lizard. Our guides were very good and interesting with the knowledge of the area and the Aboriginal culture. After arriving at Cave Hill we were told the Aboriginal guide was not arriving (we found out talking to others this indeed this is the case that they are often late and don't arrive)The highlight of the tour would of been if we heard directly from an Aboriginal native. Once at Cave Hill we had a steak sandwich lunch over the fire. The flies were very thick and down right unbearable, even applied some locally made fly away. My boys sat in the van while eating their lunch. With taking so much of the day, we were unable to day a sunrise or sunset tour of Ayers Rock. Be advised that even if this is an Aboriginal culture tour an Aboriginal guide may not even arrive. If your time is very limited in Ayers Rock this tour may be for right for your agenda.

I just recently started using Pet Enzymes Plus. I have an 8 year old pit bull mix named Sassy. She is very particular about her food and she took to these tablets right away. She knows what time of the day she usually gets them, and comes and sits looking at me until I get them for her. lol
I am hoping it will help relieve/eliminate pain, etc. in a knee joint which she had surgery on. They are a little pricey, but if they do the job, it will be worth it.

On the stability of employment growth: a postwar view from the U.S. states
In 1952, the average quarterly volatility of U.S. state employment growth stood at 1.5 percent. By 1995, employment growth volatility came in at just under 0.5 percent. While all states shared in the decline, some states declined much more dramatically than others. We analyze aspects of this decline using new data covering industry employment by state during the postwar period. Estimates from a pooled cross-section/time-series model corrected for spatial dependence indicate that fluctuations in state-specific and aggregate variables have both played an important role in explaining volatility trends. However, state-level differences in responses to aggregate shocks account for less of the postwar fluctuations in employment growth volatility than do state-specific forces.

Published: April 5, 2014 - 11:08 PM
WASHINGTON: The latest Associated Press-GfK poll holds bad news for President Barack Obama, but as the November elections draw closer, there are ominous signs for congressional Democrats as well.
Preferences for control of Congress are tight, but Republicans have gained on Democrats since January. Thirty-six percent in last month's poll said they would rather see the Democrats in charge of Congress and 37 percent chose Republicans.
Democrats held a narrow advantage on that question in January, when 39 percent favored the Democrats and 32 percent the Republicans.
Democrats are in the majority in the Senate while Republicans run the House.
In the new poll, registered voters who are most strongly interested in politics favored the Republicans by 14 percentage points, 51 percent to 37 percent. In January, this group was about evenly split, with 42 percent preferring Democrats and 45 percent the Republicans.
Favorable views of the GOP have improved, with 38 percent overall now saying they hold a favorable impression of the Party. Republicans' positive view of their own party has increased from 57 percent in January to 72 percent now.
Even impressions of the tea party movement have shifted more positive in recent months. GOP favorability still lags behind that of the Democrats, however, with 43 percent holding a favorable view of the Democratic Party.
Congressional approval is stagnant and negative, with just 16 percent saying they approve while 82 percent disapprove. Among those who have "a great deal" or "quite a bit" of interest in politics, 90 percent disapprove, including 61 percent who strongly disapprove.
The poll measured impressions of 19 potential 2016 presidential candidates, and found that a majority of those surveyed offered an opinion about just seven of them. The other 12 have quite a lot of introducing themselves to do if they are to make a run for the White House.
Most people said either they hadn't heard of them or skipped the question.
Hillary Rodham Clinton generated the most positive response of the bunch, with 46 percent viewing the former secretary of state and first lady favorably and 39 percent unfavorably.
Among potential GOP contenders, none generated a net positive reaction from the public, with 2012 vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan faring best — 27 percent viewed him favorably, 29 percent unfavorably.

The G220 features a double cutaway body for classic styling, comfort, and easy access to the higher register of the fretboard.
Utilizing Alnico V magnets in passive format, this powerful Humbucker provides a smoother and more natural tone than its active counterpart with exceptional versatility to cover a wide variety of musical genres and styles.
This popular pickup configuration with the 5-way switch provides a wide variety of sounds to cover virtually any musical style. With the middle and neck pickups alone or in combination, the sounds are not only ideal for rhythm playing but for distinctive single-coil lead sounds.
The push-pull tone knob potentiometer allows for the EMG humbucker's dual coils to be split into single-coil, providing a brighter and glassier sound ideal for genres such such as pop, funk and certain styles of jazz.
Unlike the square-cut heel of traditional bolt-on guitars, the heel on the G-Series guitars are beveled round for easier and smoother access to the frets in the high register of the fingerboard.
A clean look as well as no drag on your fingers due to the smooth satin finish means more comfort, increased speed and enhanced playability.

Midweight warmth that won't let up.
The Marmot Women's Jena Down Jacket features 700-fill down with Marmot's Down Defender treatment to keep you warm through damp spring and fall outings. Basically, the jacket's down is coated in a Durable Water Repellant (DWR) at the molecular level, acting as an insurance policy against wet weather to ensure your jacket retains its heat-trapping loft, despite the conditions outside (short of a full-on rainstorm or all-day deluge).
How good is Marmot's Down Defender treated down, compared to the untreated competition? Well, Marmot claims that its treated down stays drier 10 times longer, maintains 150% more loft in damp conditions, and dries 30% faster than untreated down. Plus, the Down Defender treatment enhances the down's cluster integrity for longer lasting warmth.
Aside from the jacket's midweight insulation that's great for chilly outings and casual wear, the Jena features a durable polyester mini ripstop shell that's also treated with a DWR for added resistance to passing showers. Its zippered hand pockets provide a place for small snacks and accessories when you're hiking and camping, and the elastic drawcord hem cinches tight for a great fit. In addition, this jacket uses Marmot's Angel-Wing Movement for freedom of motion when you're pitching a tent, hanging a bear bag in the wilderness, or retrieving items from hard to reach places in your pack.

My fave puffy
This jacket is so warm! My warmest of all my puffies! Love the color- the pockets have zippers and there is one interior pocket right by the zipper area. I've worn it in below zero temps and with the right layering it is a great coat!!!
Love Marmot
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Small
Marmot is my go-to brand for jackets and pants. The sizing is great for a straight up-and-down gal with long arms and torso. I'm 5'8, 132lbs, 34-27-36 and I love knowing if I buy Marmot, it will fit all over, not ride-up on my back and fit right to my wrists. Marmot pants are also long enough for someone with quite narrow hips, which can be really tricky with most other brands, as leg length gets shorter based on hip and waist size. Thank you, Marmot, for helping those of us with less typically feminine shapes :)
Great Jacket for Great Price
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: Medium
I received this jacket as a Christmas gift almost 1 year ago and have put it through hell since. It has remained warm the down has maintained its "fluffiness" despite all the backcountry trips, misuse and abuse I have put it through. It packs down relatively small and is a great, lightweight jacket to bring into the backcountry. If you are stuck between sizes, order up.
Overall: I love this jacket and its never let me down.
Perfect for back country trip
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: small
Ordered this last minute as I needed a down jacket due to temps a little on the cooler side than expected for our 5 day back country trip. This jacket was perfect to stuff in my pack when not needed but then perfect and light weight to throw on when needed. It's not bulky under the pack and it's really light weight. I am 5'4'' and 124lbs and ordered a small and it's a perfect fit even with a fleece on underneath. It even held up to the water resistant status as we ran into some rain for a bit in the back country and it dried super fast as well. Highly recommend this jacket!
Small in hips!!!
- Size Bought: Large
Loved this coat, and it fit perfectly except in the hips. Made for a woman with narrow hips.
Small in the hips
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
- Fit: Runs small
This is a really nice jacket, but I had to return it because as another reviewer said, it is too small in the hips - I'm 5/7, 145lbs, and I ordered a medium. Everything was perfect except it got stuck on my hips. I'm curvy, but my hips are not exceptionally wide - the narrowness of the jacket doesn't make sense. But even so, if you know you have hips, this may not be the right jacket for you. Bummed!
The Jena jacket is just what I wanted
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Large
I have two other down jackets that I really like, both with hoods, but I was looking for a down jacket without a hood to suit another purpose. Specifically, I wanted a good quality jacket that had the right fill volume--not less than 700--is water resistant for drizzly weather, lightweight and packs down easily. This jacket fit the bill. Since other reviewers said this model runs small, I ordered a large and was not disappointed, it fit well. I bought the jacket specifically for a trip to Ireland and it turned out to be everything I wanted and needed. The jacket was actually too hot for the 55-degree evening weather, but I just removed it when it was too warm. I was able to get this on sale with free shipping in the color I wanted and it arrived super fast. I received a very quick customer service follow up from Samuel--that really surprised me--I was happy that my satisfaction mattered to Backcountry! However, I will say, although the size large fit well, it would be too small for layering, so I wouldn't use this particular jacket for serious backpacking trips. I will use it for day hikes or overnight trips, and a general runaround jacket in 38 degree or higher temps where layering isn't needed.
Great fit, super warm!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Size Bought: Small
Wore this jacket out in CO during a blizzard. Was super warm. Fits true to size.
Awkward on stocky people
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: Small
Agreed with Anne P. I'm 5 ft 4, 135 lbs, 36B bra, and its just too tight across the chest and rides up when you lift your arms.
But hey, super cute jacket.
Great casual jacket
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: Medium
Got this in the gem blue - Gorgeous bright color. Perfect weight for running around town. Just wore it skiing this past weekend, great jacket for 40 degree weather. Like how I can cinch it at the waist. I'm usually a small/medium. I purchased in the medium and it fits perfect. I love Marmot products!
So disappointed with the fit!
- Size Bought: med and large
I really wanted this jacket. The color, construction are great. The collar is comfortable and looks good even folded down. But the hips are small as others have mentioned. I'm 5'4", 130 lbs. I don't have big hips. The medium fit perfectly for the arms, length, bust, and the jacket zipped up. But if I lifted my arms up, it was a little too tight and would ride up. I bought the large and the hips fit, but the rest of the jacket was then too big. So I have to return both of them. I'm so disappointed! Why not have the hips be just a little bit bigger - especially when there is a draw string?
Great Versatile Jacket
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Medium
This jacket is awesome. The fit is great, jackets usually have too short of sleeves for me, but the sleeve length on this is great. I have a medium, and I'm about 5'9". It's pretty true to size; if you have broad shoulders I would size up but the body may end up a little loose. Although it's not a super technical jacket, it's pretty versatile. It's super warm, and great for packing down into my backcountry skiing backpack. It takes up next to no space packing on the way up the mountain, but is plenty warm when I throw it on for way down. I love this jacket!
Enough room for donuts!
This jacket is sized well enough that a couple extra donuts won't make it too tight!
Looks great, falls short on performance
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Large
I loved the colors, cut and fit of this jacket, but just wasn't what I was looking for in terms of performance. A great choice for a "city" jacket, the fabric has a nice mid-sheen, bright, vibrant colors and seems like it would keep perfectly warm in chilly temps.
For my backpacking and hiking purposes, though, the wrist closures, zipper and fabric just didn't seem like they were up to the durability and weather protection I was looking for.
First Likeable "Poofy" Jacket!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: small
Iowa-bound and hit with a broad spectrum of weather, yet this coat keeps me comfortable across the board. I do use a midlayer when it gets below 10 degrees but otherwise this coat is all I need. I do have to strip it once inside or I overheat, and I've always been the cold girl! Stands up to my abuse (certified klutz), stays warm in misty/sleety gross Iowa winter stuff, and packs down easily to stuff into my locker at work or my gym bag if it's too much after a workout. And it looks GOOD, a big win for a 'poofy jacket' -- Always hated them but LOVE this one.
I am 34" in the chest, 24 in the waist, 35 in the hips; I kept the size small and returned the XS as it was just barely too narrow in the shoulder and chest for me to be comfortable moving/reaching. I am 5'6" with a long torso and short arms for my height, but this coat still hits perfectly on my hips (not too short, yay!) and isn't super long in the arms.
A Backcountry Employee Favorite
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Size Bought: Medium
Quite a few Backcountry employees own this jacket and there is a reason for that. Awesome lite weight jacket from Marmot. Colors are really true to the pictures showing on the site.
This would be great as a lite layering jacket or as a casual wear on a nice day.
My only issue with this jacket is the shoulders run a bit small in comparison to other jackets. You don't get a ton of flexibility, which is important for me. I don't hate the jacket, will keep it on hand. Just not my go to personally.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Large
I have used this in Colorado winters getting the dogs out on a several-times-a-day basis. Very flattering...not boxy (a PLUS), but it has been extremely warm. Length is good too....below the hip bone, butt covering -- not a cold bomber- jacket that only keeps the waist up warm. Fits true to size. I have an "L," maybe a little large, but can layer underneath. Only negative..lack of creativity in colors.
Definitely tight fit
My wife normally wears a medium in everything. Got this jacket as a gift and when she tried it on it was too tight in the bust and hips. Arms were perfect length so she's worried about getting a large. Looks like a great jacket. I love Marmot, just wish if fit better.
Warm and cute!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Size Bought: Large
This coat is pretty warm and fits really well. I can fit a sweatshirt under it but it doesn't look too big without one under it either. The color is great and it's fairly lightweight. Great deal.
Nice jacket
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: L
The fit is not too good.
Short sleeves, big over belly, kinda short lenght too. Got large to be safe, usually I do medium but it didnt fit right. Nice jacket otherwise
What is the fill weight of this jacket; that is, how many ounces of 700-fill power down are in this jacket?
I was looking to purchase this jacket before my next jacket. I have read that the down is water resistant, but I also noticed the previous comment to not typically wear this for skiing. Why is that?
I'd wear this as an insulating layer under a technical shell while skiing, but it's missing quite a few features that would make it a better standalone ski jacket!
Is this jacket very puffy?
Hey Madison. If I had to rate it, I'd say it was medium puffy. It's 700 fill but it's not overstuffed. I use this jacket (and vest) for most of my winter and shoulder season activities. It's warm but not like the huge Guides Down (which is also 700 fill).
I am wondering if this jacket is breathable? I can't ski in the jacket I have because I heat up and actually become sweaty which then cools me off and I freeze
Hey Aline,
Yes, this is very breathable. There are no heavy membraines that trap in the heat. If anything if you are skiing, the wind will blow right through it. Typically, you wouldn't ski in this jacket, but I've seen plenty of people do it on sunny, dry days!
Why do you say you wouldn't ski in it?
What are the hip measurements of the jacket in a small size?
Is this jacket recommended for temperatures under 30?
Hey Ana,
It really sort of depends what you plan on wearing under the jacket and for what activity/how long you plan on being outside. A 700 fill jacket will certainly keep you warm most of the time, and this one is one of Marmot's key items! I personally love mine, I wear it most of the time during the winter, it's the perfect to and from work/store jacket as well as an insulator under a shell on a super cold and wet day. Also, the Gator and Vapor color are special colors only for Backcountry.com.
What is the center back length of a medium?
25 inches

From the book jacket: A hitherto lost journal of the indomitable Amelia Peabody has been
miraculously recovered: a chronicle from one of the "missing
years", 19071908, shedding new light on a remarkable family and an
unexpected terror. Ousted from their most recent archaeological dig and banned forever
from the Valley of the Kings, the Emersons are spending a quiet summer at
home in Kent, England, when a mysterious messenger arrives. Claiming to be
the teenage brother of their dear friend Tarek, prince of the mysterious
Lost Oasis, the charismatic herald brings troubling news of a strange
malady that has struck down Tarek's heir and conveys his brother's urgent
need for help only the Emersons can provide.

Vientiane city tour
After breakfast we explore the charming and laid-back capital of Laos with a city tour. We visit the oldest Buddhist monastery temple in the country - Wat Si Saket – and the former royal temple of Haw Pha Kaeo, built to house the famed Emerald Buddha. Today it serves as the national museum of religious art. Learn about Laos' tragic past and present suffering at the COPE Centre, an organization that works with victims of unexploded bombs and mines. Next visit Pha That Luang, the most important monument in Laos and a symbol of both Buddhist religion and Lao sovereignty.
We also stop to view the imposing Patuxay monument - Vientiane's own Arc de Triomphe. Later in the afternoon enjoy time exploring the hundreds of Hindu and Buddhist sculptures scattered throughout Buddha Park. End the day with a sunset dinner besides the Mekong River.
Overnight: Vientiane | Breakfast, Dinner
Vang Vieng
Vientiane – Vang Vieng. We leave the capital early and journey north through lush countryside to Vang Vieng. Along the way we visit Ban Keun, famous for its salt extraction plant and a village of local Lao rice wine whiskey distillation. A next stop is the busy and colourful market of Thalat, where local hill tribes come to trade and shop and also visit the archaeological site of Vang Xang that dates back to the 11th century. Arriving at Vang Vieng, nestled on the banks of the Nam Song River is our delightfully rustic and rural hotel. The remainder of the day offers free time, perhaps opt to explore the local caves or take a bicycle ride through the surrounding countryside.

Tham Jang Caves
Vang Vieng – Luang Prabang. This morning we explore the famous caves of Tham Jang once used by the local people as a hideout during Chinese invasions. We observe the lifestyles of the local people at Ban Huai Ngai village before making our way further north to the UNESCO World Heritage listed city of Luang Prabang.
Overnight: Luang Prabang | Breakfast
Temples of Luang Prabang
Consider rising early this morning to view the daily ritual of saffron-clad monks and their procession down the streets of Luang Prabang collecting alms from the residents. After we commence our sightseeing tour of this enchanting city, starting with a visit to the oldest temple in Luang Prabang, Wat Visoun, and the banyan tree graced grounds of Wat Aham, we stop at the Ock Pop Tok weaving centre. Later we marvel at the former Royal Palace, now a national museum and home to gilded rooms and Buddha artifacts.
In the afternoon we stop at ethnic minority villages before arriving at the beautiful Khouangsi waterfall. Dip in the turquoise pools or take a walk along the forest trails. Tonight there is the option to learn to cook tasty local cuisine at a local restaurant.
Overnight: Luang Prabang | Breakfast
Cruise the Mekong, Pak Ou Caves
Discover more of Luang Prabang's holy sites with a morning visit to Wat Sene and the magnificent Wat Xieng Thong. Sit back and enjoy the views of tranquil countryside as we cruise upstream on the Mekong River to reach the mysterious Pak Ou caves. Crammed with Buddha images of all shapes and sizes, these two caves stand in the lower part of a limestone cliff overlooking the river. Along the way sample local rice wine at the village of Ban Xanghai and shop for local handicrafts at the village of Ban Phanom, known for its hand weaving.
Overnight: Luang Prabang | Breakfast, Lunch

Trip Highlights
Not Included
Tipping is not a natural part of many Western cultures and many of us feel uncomfortable, or unsure, about when, or how much, to tip. However, in Laos, tipping makes up a significant part of many people's wages so it's important that we get it right. For this reason we've developed a very simple system to take all the hassle out of tipping. With our 'tipping made easy' policy, a nominal pre-determined amount is collected from all group tour participants to cover tips en route. This then saves you the hassle of when and how much to tip bellhops, luggage handlers, local guides and other support staff through the tour. Our 'tipping made easy' doesn't include a tip to your group tour leader. Naturally, though, the amount is up to you as tipping is an entirely personal gesture.
Scoring an average traveller rating of 4.33 out of 5 based on 3 recent reviews
What an amazing experience. Laos has been high on my list for many years and this tour did not disappoint. I just happened to arrive during the end of Buddhist Lent which I feel quite honoured to have been able to observe the local people in the temples as they were all still open to the public. The atmosphere was so festive in Vientiane! Vang Vieng was beautiful, would have loved the opportunity to go hot-air ballooning. An early morning spent on the Nam Song river was so peaceful. Luang Prabang was a wonderful way to end the tour. Exploring on foot, and enjoying all that nature has to offer.
Our guide Xang, for our tiny tour of 2 people, was very personable and not only enjoyed sharing his knowledge of the country and culture, but it was a joy to watch him seeing new things in his own country. His passion for his home was very evident."
Thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Laos. Our guide Lee was very knowledgeable and controlled his 6 senior travelers very well. Laos is a beautiful country and the people are very friendly. The only criticism I would have is the description of this being a 8 day tour, we thought it was really more of a 6 day tour but had a lovely time anyway. Thank you."
I accompanied a group of 25 people to Luang Prabang, Vang Vieng and Vientiane. The itinerary was excellent. However, if we had the luxury of time, we would have added another day in Luang Prabang and another day in Van Vieng. We loved both areas and would have liked to spend more time in each. The drive from Luang Prabang to Vang Vieng is extremely difficult, filled with twists and turns, and washed out road, but we enjoyed the scenery and glimpses of local life and would not have changed it. Accommodations and meals were excellent, as were all tours and activities included. We did add an elephant ride and feeding the monks which I would strongly recommend.
Pom was our guide. He did everything possible to ensure we maximized our time and our experiences while in Laos; fine-tuning our plans from day to day. He shared his love for his country, his people, and his culture with us and we were so fortunate to have him as our guide. He is kind, considerate and animated. His command of the English language is very good although some clients had difficulty at times understanding his commentary. I clarified a few key ideas and we were off and running. I would not hesitate to recommend the tour to other clients. "
Pom was excellent . Very informative. His English was not the best but overall his other qualities made up for that.
A free day in Luang Prabang would have been better than the trip to the waterfall.
Not sure about the road trip to Vientiane. A plane ride would have been better allowing us to spend more time in that city. There are a number of tourist spots in Vientiane that we missed.
The excursions in Luang Prabang including the Elephant ride were excellent."
Morning Charlie,
OTG have outdone themselves yet again with yet another fabulous tour. Pom was an excellent guide and was super helpful and informative throughout the trip, even to the point of offering me options when part of our activities included something I have a great fear of, but his manner put me at ease and helped me embrace my phobia. I left my completed questionnaire with him on my departure date.
I've voted for OtG with the British Awards (putting my London office's postcode in that required field).
Many thanks for all your valuable assistance "
This was my first trip with On The Go Tours, and if all of OTGT's trips are this well-organized and the guides are as knowledgeable and friendly as Vanh, then I hope I can participate on more trips. Vanh is an exceptional guide. I learned quite a lot about Laos and its people during the trip thanks to Vanh's explanations and answering all of our questions. Both Vanh and Mr Keo took very good care of us throughout the entire week. I was very impressed by Mr Keo's driving skills, especially in the difficult mountain passes. I was also very impressed with Vanh's command of the English language...
Thank you very much! "

Like every other city in the U.S. it has been misappropriated by hipsters. At least the Gaslamp has. Yet another reason not to go down there too often. I personally like the Gaslamp, but god damn are there a lot of pretentious people there.
Yeah, but Albert Hall makes me want to be a hipster like him.
I feel like shopping with VictorSF and Albert Hal would be a great time. They both bring two very different perspectives into how they dress, but both have a defined style and an obvious sense of fun.
You are welcome. The coat is a British tweed from the 1940´s. I found it on Old Spitalfield Markets in London a few weeks ago. The plus fours, from the same time, I bought in a vintage-barn 80 km from Stockholm. Second hand Trickers shoes from a vintage store i Stockholm. The new socks (Pantharella?) and the new Borsalino hat you can find everywhere. The horn glasses is vintage too, probably from the 1930-40´s. Now we wait for Victors answer.
You shop the way you want to shop. They just sit on your shoulder (literally, if that sort of thing floats your boat) and whisper into your ear what they think you should buy and where you should buy it.

Anything going on where you are?
I've been trying to unplug from the madness of our modern world, but Michelle says some of you are wondering what I'm up to. I'm honored that you care so just wanted to drop a quick note to let you know everything is copacetic.
How are you all doing?
Not much to report here. Been wearing my baseball cap backward. Kinda cool. Cruising around in flip-flops and shades and sometimes saying out loud in a Groucho Marx voice: "Here's to you, Mitch McConnell!"
Haven't grown that...

Mechman replied to Mechman's topic in Rav 4 ClubThanks guys. The information is greatly appreciated. For the moment normal radio is fine. Regards Brian.
Mechman posted a topic in Rav 4 ClubI have just sold my XT5 (it now lives with a very nice TOC family member) and bought a D-CAT SR (61 plate). This is fitted with the B9017 Satnav unit. It is listed as DAB but when the MW/DAB button is pressed I only get the MW. Do I need to buy any add-on to enable the DAB side? The radio is excellent and at the push of a button it will play and control all the music recorded on my iphone5 without the need of any connection but Bluetooth. Thanks in advance, Brian
Mechman started following Tow Bar Advice
Mechman replied to enyajtrebor's topic in Rav 4 ClubI have just fitted a towbar to my SR (2011/61 Plate) I bought a detachable Titan from PF Jones with the vertical socket and it is fully hidden behind the bumper. I used a dedicated wiring loom and it works very well. I have been told by someone who fits them for a living that the bar is actually built by Westfailia. The whole lot was around £227. Very good service with a qualitity looking bar. The electrics cut the rear fogs, do not cut the bleepers and it says that, whilst there is no audible signal for the indicators, if one fails the indicator speed doubles.
Mechman replied to Seth1's topic in Rav 4 ClubI took the standard check strap off my XT5 and fitted the one from an SR (no spare wheel on the door). The door now swings a full 90 degs and the spare wheel is still within the vehicle line. I fitted a set of red LEDs on the edge of the door wired into the door switch. This necessary as the spare wheel covers the offside tail light when fully open. As the XT5 has full satnav I fitted a reversing camera as well.
Mechman replied to Seth1's topic in Rav 4 ClubHi I do not the club rules, but my XT5 is up for sale at the end of January. 9th Feb 07 (56), petrol, automatic, 50000 miles. Fully serviced from new by Mr T. As I pay monthly for service contract it will have a full service and MOT in Jan/Feb. 61 SR auto on its way. Brian
Mechman started following Thinking Of Getting A 2.00 Petrol Rav For The Wife...advise Wanted..
O.K.. Using a B9004 with the Xcarlink and Iphone4S. Setup. With the radio out, I drilled a hole in the top left hand corner of the cubby hole infront of the gear lever. In a previous life this was probably the pull out ash tray. I pulled the iphone lead out out through this and initially stood the phone upright in the cupholder. I then stuck the carlink to the top of the cubby hole and replaced the radio. Operation. Playing with the setup, it appears that if you just connect the phone and then switch on the radio and double click the CD button, the radio plays the phone from where ever it left off and you can just track up or down on the wheel. I have not yet worked out where it jumps to. However, if you turn the phone on and select music before the radio is switched on, the music selection on the phone stays valid and you can choose music at will using the music icons on the phone. As normal, after a few moments the phone screen switches off and goes blank. If you then scroll up or down on the wheel it comes back on showing the album and song title being played. You can also just touch the phone screen and it comes back on line and you can then scroll through your albums and choose a new song. Obviously any responsible driver would not do this whilst driving. Regards Brian
My 2007 XT5 is fitted with the B9004 Sat Nav unit and basically you do not have the facility to play an Ipod unless an upgrade has been fitted. What I had to do was buy the extra kit and then fit it as a plug in behind the unit. You have to remove it from the dash to do this. http://www.ebay.co.u...984.m1439.l2649 Check this out and you will see what was needed. When fitted, if you press the CD button twice it looks for any auxilary input. There are many good strings in the club covering unit removal and replacement and I do not doubt that several offers of help will follow if required. Good Luck Brian

Mechman replied to blue monster's topic in Rav 4 ClubI bought a disc from here. Had it a few months and so far has worked fine. http://www.satnavi.com/toyota.php
Thats OK. I am happy with the system anyway. As apposed to the single disc B9004 it allows you to play the full range with very little hassle. Again, regards and thanks. Brian
Dont understand why you cant adjust or select from the steering wheel cos my one does it perfectly.. Are you absolutely sure you have the correct unit ? There are many just for Toyotas ......................... Edit.. Looking at you Ebay link suggests you have the wrong one.. Cant see the B9004 in the pictures they supply to help with compatibility ?? They list RAV4 2003 onwards and the unit is a direct plug in. Also the iphone is shown in the main picture right next to the unit. As I have 52 CD s on the Iphone I do not expect 6 buttons to cover these. On the wheel, volume control is as normal and I can seek up and down song to song. Mode still cycles through radio as normal. Are you saying that from switching the radio on and selecting CD you can then cycle through 52 discs and choose the one you want and play from the wheel? I have not set the albums as playlists and I wonder if it could be a phone setting rather than the car itself. Thanks for your input. Regards Brian
Mechman started following Replacement Stero Or Ipod Connection
I have just fitted the X Carlink to my RAV with a B9004 unit. It gives good quality sound but the control is not fully available at the steering wheel. I find that the best way is to set the Iphone playing and then plug in to the radio. When you press the CD button twice, the radio connects to the Iphone and plays from there. When you press audio on the radio, 3 of the 6 buttons appear to forward to the next album but 4,5 and 6 do not appear to do anything. When you unplug the phone and replug it later it starts off from where it stops. The steering wheel controls do operate volume and scroll up and down. http://www.ebay.co.u...984.m1439.l2649 Hopefully this is the Ebay link where I bought the kit.
Mmmmm Not sure why you have such a palaver to access the music ? The X car-link unit allows everything to be accessed via the steering wheel controls and displays the track being played on the nav screen.. Its a simple plug it in item and if a clown like me can fit it anyone can.. Was this with a B9004 and can you search through different albums/playlists from the wheel when travelling?
Update. I have fitted the unit, this is Toyota Part PZA73-00261-01. (This the same unit shown being installed in the link referred to by Gus in his posting above. Anchorman has covered it fully). First, the positives. The unit does plug staight into the B9004 and connects to the ipod/iphone. Mine is a 4S. The 9004 charges the player, and music quality and volume match the existing internal CD player. Pressing the CD button cycles between the iplayer and the CD player. The external player reacts the same as usual when an incoming phone call is received. Now the negatives. when the iplayer is connected it comes up with a fixed page "Accessory Connected" and is frozen and cannot be over ridden. To play the music you have to select what you want and set it playing before connecting to the 9004. It will then play the selected album or playlist. If you stop playing using the radio and then restart it appears to pick up where it left off. You have volume and skip up and down on the steering wheel. The only display on the screen when Audio is selected is an option showing for 6 tracks or discs but they have no relevance and no other information is shown. Just turning the 9004 off does not release the iplayer. you have to unplug or switch the ignition off. Just for the record, I drilled a 28 dia hole through the top left hand side of the back wall of the cubby hole in front of the gear lever and passed the wire through it. With the iplayer plugged in it just sits in the cup holder. Thanks to the TOC team. Brian

Paula Deen and the lure of the easy fix
Paula Deen came out last week. The cookbook author and television personality, known for her enthusiasm for high-fat and fried foods, has been a closet diabetic for three years - and for the moment, she's the chef we love to hate, having seduced us with unhealthful recipes on the one hand while she checked her blood sugar with the other.
But she's also a distraction, and the media storm surrounding the news of her illness is exactly the sort of publicity bonanza the pharmaceutical company Novo Nordisk must have dreamed of when it hired Deen to be the spokesperson for its new marketing campaign. It's Deen's job, along with her sons, to help us see "Diabetes in a new light," according to the company's website. As if one soft-focus slogan weren't enough, there's a kicker: "Live a life that's delicious."
It sounds like so much fun; almost makes you want to sign up for Type 2 diabetes. Surely Deen fans with the disease will start asking their doctors if the $500-a-month Novo Nordisk drug she takes might be right for them, not because they need a new medication but because it will catapult them to one degree of separation from Deen - which is, after all, what celebrity endorsements are all about.
There's a heated debate in the blogosphere over what Deen knew, when she knew it and the amount of sugar, fat and calories she dished out in the meantime. But really, the worst she might be guilty of is being a savvy entrepreneur. Deen got handed a bushel of lemons and made - suddenly sugar free! - lemonade.
More than 25 million Americans, about 8.3% of the population, have diabetes, and at the current diagnosis rate, one in three of us will have it by 2050. All but a small percentage of these cases are Type 2 diabetes, and obesity is the No. 1 risk factor.
Obesity numbers may have flattened out for the first time in 30 years, according to new figures, but not among poor and minority populations who have more trouble accessing care and managing their illness. You won't find them in the same waiting room with Deen.
The long view? Decidedly not "new" or "delicious." The National Institutes of Health lists the life-threatening complications: heart disease, stroke, hypertension, blindness, kidney disease, nervous system disease, amputations, dental problems, pregnancy complications. The catchall "other complications" category includes coma, greater risk of death from pneumonia, trouble with physical activity for those over 60 and, no surprise, depression.
I imagine that right now most of you like Deen a whole lot more than you like me, and I apologize for putting a dent in her I-eat-what-I-like-but-in- moderation campaign. My father had diabetes, and I watched its progress for 21 years. I can say with some authority that while a diabetic's life is manageable, it hardly qualifies as delicious in any dependable way.
Yes, people manage diabetes, and some really disciplined people wean themselves off medication with a regimen of diet and exercise, but that's a long, long way from what most of us consider "moderation," which usually involves saying no to a second slice of cake. Besides, a diabetic never gets a day off.
The life of a diabetic is somewhat less than swell - but Novo Nordisk is selling swell, alongside drug companies that promise to medicate away depression, gas, incontinence, clogged arteries and fibromyalgia. According to the Congressional Budget Office, pharmaceutical companies spent $4.7 billion on direct-to-consumer advertising in 2008; the United States has the dubious distinction of being one of only two countries in the world to allow such advertising, New Zealand being the other.
Support and encouragement is one thing, but what we're being sold is magical thinking. In the battle between health care reality and fantasy, Deen is small potatoes (steamed, skins on, no butter), but what she represents matters: another attempt to market immortality to a culture that's particularly in love with misbehaving, followed by an easy fix.
Karen Stabiner is writing a book about restaurant staff meals with chef Michael Romano.

Book DescriptionThis book brings together a team of experts in the field of forensic psychology to demonstrate the scope of the discipline and the techniques employed in key areas of research, policy and practice.

Hops to the Stove
Remember those days when money spent at the bar sounded more reasonable than money spent at a restaurant? Ever consciously chose and then boasted about beer for supper? Step it up and bring your evening meal full-circle, pint to plate. Central Market Dallas' new course, BREWTOPIA, with instructor Kent Rathbun, takes your hops where no hops have gone before. You will learn how to prepare an entire meal using beer as an ingredient. The menu includes spicy lamb meatballs with beer braised vidalia onions, pan-roasted striped bass and Bourbon cream corn, and cinnamon-chocolate molten cake with cherry-beer ice cream. We are talking serious beer food -- not 2 a.m. Taco Cabana or pouring a little "hops seasoning" on the barbecue grill. You will also learn how to pair beer with your meal, because, not surprisingly, Budweiser does not go with everything. If you are hungry already, grab a barley pop and sign up now. Class costs $65 and goes from 6:30 to 9 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 22. For more information, visit cookingschoolsofamerica.com.
Wed., Sept. 22, 6:30 p.m., 2010
