Horse Meat With Drug Enters French Market as Italy Pulls ProductFabio Benedetti-Valentini
Three out of the six horse carcasses shipped this year from the U.K. to France with traces of a painkiller probably entered the country's meat-producing market, French Agriculture Minister Stephane Le Foll said.
France received an alert from U.K. authorities this month and withdrew three horse carcasses from the market, Agence France-Presse reported today, citing an unidentified agriculture ministry official. The alert came too late for the other carcasses, AFP reported. The horse carcasses with phenylbutazone, a drug that's banned in food for humans, have no link with the mislabeling of horse meat as beef meat, AFP said.
"These carcasses had extremely weak traces of phenylbutazone," Le Foll said today at the Paris farming fair. "There's no health risk."
Retailers across Europe have withdrawn frozen meat products after they were shown to contain horse DNA. The mislabeling scandal has led policy makers to urge the industry to make the food chain more transparent. The European Union on Feb. 19 recommended a plan to investigate fraudulent food-marketing practices in a bid to restore consumer confidence.
Italian health authorities said today that a frozen lasagna product tested positive for horse DNA, the first such case in the country. The product being sold in a supermarket in the northern city of Brescia wasn't properly identified as horse meat on its label, according to an e-mailed statement from the Italian Health Ministry. The "Lasagna alla Bolognese," made by a company in Bologna, has been removed from store shelves, the ministry said.
Italian Testing
Health officials have seized 6 tons of ground meat labeled as beef and 2,400 packages of the lasagna product, according to the statement. The ministry said authorities are continuing to conduct checks throughout Italy. Earlier today, the ministry said all meat samples tested at a Nestle SA plant near Turin were negative for horse DNA.
Nestle, the world's largest food company, said Feb. 18 that it's withdrawing some beef ravioli and beef tortellini products and halted deliveries after traces of horse DNA were found in food made with meat from a German supplier.
A frozen lasagna product made in France for the catering industry was also withdrawn, the Vevey, Switzerland-based company said in the statement.
In the U.K., about 1 percent of beef products tested were found to contain horse meat, the Food Standards Agency said Feb. 15.

Online gaming is serious business to spies
Not limiting their activities to the earthly realm, U.S. and British spies have infiltrated the fantasy worlds of World of Warcraft and Second Life, conducting surveillance and scooping up data in the online games played by millions of people around the globe, newly disclosed classified documents show.
Fearing that terrorist or criminal networks could use the games to communicate secretly, move money or plot attacks, the documents show, intelligence operatives have entered terrain populated by digital avatars that include elves, gnomes and supermodels.
Irvine-based Blizzard Entertainment, the maker of World of Warcraft, said that neither the National Security Agency nor its British counterpart, the Government Communications Headquarters, had gotten permission to gather intelligence in its game.
"We are unaware of any surveillance taking place," said a representative for Blizzard. "If it was, it would have been done without our knowledge or permission."
The spies have created make- believe characters to snoop and to try to recruit informers, while also collecting data and contents of communications between players, according to the documents, disclosed by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden. Because militants often rely on features common to video games – fake identities, voice and text chats, a way to conduct financial transactions – U.S. and British intelligence agencies worried that they might be operating there, the papers show.
Online games might seem innocuous, a top-secret 2008 NSA document warned, but they had the potential to be a "target-rich communication network" allowing intelligence suspects "a way to hide in plain sight." Virtual games "are an opportunity!" another 2008 NSA document declared.
But for all their enthusiasm – so many CIA, FBI and Pentagon spies were hunting around in Second Life, the document noted, that a "deconfliction" group was needed to avoid collisions – the intelligence agencies may have inflated the threat.
The documents do not cite any counterterrorism successes from the effort, and former U.S. intelligence officials, current and former gaming-company employees and outside experts said in interviews that they knew of little evidence that terrorist groups viewed the games as havens to communicate and plot operations.
Games "are built and operated by companies looking to make money, so the players' identity and activity is tracked," said Peter Singer of the Brookings Institution, an author of "Cybersecurity and Cyberwar: What Everyone Needs to Know." "For terror groups looking to keep their communications secret, there are far more effective and easier ways to do so than putting on a troll avatar."
The surveillance, which also included Microsoft's Xbox Live, could raise privacy concerns. It is not clear exactly how the agencies got access to gamers' data or communications, how many players may have been monitored or whether Americans' communications or activities were captured.
A representative for Microsoft declined to comment. Philip Rosedale, the founder of Second Life and a former CEO of Linden Lab, the game's maker, declined to comment on the spying revelations. Current Linden executives did not respond to requests for comment.
A Government Communications Headquarters representative would neither confirm nor deny any involvement by that agency in gaming surveillance, but said its work is conducted under "a strict legal and policy framework" with rigorous oversight. An NSA representative declined to comment.
Intelligence and law-enforcement officials became interested in games after some became enormously popular, drawing tens of millions of people worldwide, from preteens to retirees.
Spy agencies grew worried that terrorist groups might take to the virtual worlds to establish safe communications channels, said U.S. officials and documents that Snowden provided to The Guardian, which shared them with The New York Times and ProPublica.

Sugar Declines as Brazil Cane Crush Expands Glut; Cocoa RalliesLuzi Ann Javier and Marvin G. Perez
Sugar dropped the most in a week on speculation that expanded processing of cane in Brazil, the world's top producer, will compound a global surplus of the sweetener. Cocoa, orange juice and cotton rose. Coffee slid.
Cane crushing in Brazil's Center South, the top growing region, totaled 315.1 million metric tons since the start of the crop year on April 1 to Aug. 15, up 54 million tons, or 21 percent, from the same period last year, according to Unica, an industry group. By the end of September, the gap over 2012 output may widen to more than 65 million tons as the harvest accelerates, James Cassidy, head of the sugar-trading desk at Newedge Group in New York, said in an e-mailed report.
"There is a lot of sugar, and the supply-side fundamentals seem to overwhelm any demand-side strength over time," Jack Scoville, a vice president at Price Futures Group Inc. in Chicago, said in an e-mailed report.
Raw sugar for delivery in October declined 0.5 percent to settle at 16.38 cents a pound at 2 p.m. on ICE Futures U.S. in New York, the biggest drop since Aug. 27. Prices are down 16 percent this year.
Cocoa futures for delivery in December advanced 3.2 percent to $2,496 a ton on ICE, the largest gain since Aug. 5.
While parts of Ivory Coast and Ghana, the world's top cocoa growers, will get some rainfall in the next five days, precipitation was about half average levels in the past month, according to MDA Weather Services.
Rains "are not enough to make up for soil moisture losses, which will likely bring down cocoa yields," Hector Galvan, a commodities broker at RJO Futures in Chicago, wrote in an e-mail. "The trade is likely looking at the possibility of less supplies."
Orange-juice futures for November delivery added 0.5 percent to $1.332 a pound in New York. Cotton futures for December delivery rose less than 0.1 percent to 82.75 cents a pound. Arabica-coffee futures for December delivery slid 0.3 percent to $1.1685 a pound.

A Day at the Beach
... a swim in at one of the beaches.
It was a beautiful hike through and along the wetlands and rugged shoreline. While no flamingoes were in sight, we saw plenty of herons and cormorants and a number of LBJ's. The old tuna factory was interesting. It had apparently been in use for several hundred years right up until 1944. Enough of the old building, ovens and waterways remain ...
The Right Way and the Sicilian Way
After a few weeks in Sicily I'm starting to figure a few things out. It's becoming clear that there is a Right Way to do things (aka, the "American Way"), and then there is the Sicilian Way. Here are a few examples.
The Right Way to buy Fruits and Vegetables: Walk into the supermarket. If it's November then it's the perfect time to buy some asparagus because you'll be helping the ...
The BaroqueTowns of Southeast Sicily
... golden colored sandstone. The monumental churches and municipal buildings are simply stunning in the late afternoon light. After admiring the main buildings and piazzas we wandered away from the main center and found a little wine bar where we enjoyed a few glasses, some antipasti and conversation with a young British couple spending there last night in Sicily. So sad.
... and stamping his feet. His female companion was obviously trying to calm him down, to no avail. We finally worked up the courage to ask the price of a couple of canvasses of interest. More expensive than we had hoped, for pieces we didn't like as much as those in our room, and I wasn't about to try to negotiate with this madman. Probably should have bought something, because I'm convinced this guy will someday cut off one of his ears, or worse.
Siracusa, Island of Ortigia and Ragusa
... the countryside of hills, volcanic rocks, which farmers over the centuries have built into dry stone walls, orchards of olives, oranges, lemons, 'greenhouses' (poly tunnels) growing a wide variety of vegetables, including aubergine and tomatoes, and the fields of recently planted artichokes. Our views included steep hills with towns or villages perched on the top, which ...

Especially when its not available on the SE except through the SE winter package.
From the Canadian order guide for 2013:
" 2013 Focus Titanium standard equipment:
All "SE" Series Equipment Plus:
• Audio – Sony® 10 speaker Sound System with Subwoofer
• Beltline Molding – Chrome
• Brakes – Rear Disc
• Climate Control – Dual-Zone EATC

• Wheels – 17" Alloy w/P215/50R17 H-rated tires
• Windows – Power with Global One-Touch Up/Down"
No mention of heated first row seats, which is odd if you're trying to say that on the Ti in canada they are standard.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
First off, before people start jumping down my throat for the title, I hope you'll all take the time to read what I'm really saying here. I know that several of the regulars in this forum know me from my days of playing this game (two years including beta) and I hope they already know that I'm not here to trash the game, just to give a former player's opinion of it.
I never made an official goodbye, just faded into the woodwork with (to quote an old TSO playmate) not a bang, but a whisper. This, I think, is what I would have said had I had the inclination.
TSO was my first MMO ever. I signed up for the beta test and started testing/playing in September '02. At the time I thought it was a heck of a lot of fun. I had burned out on the offline game and was tired of the God mode idea. Having interactions with other sims that were out of my control was exactly what I was looking for.
I have to say that the beta testing period of TSO was some of the most fun I've had in an online game. People were still figuring things out, having a good time and trying to find what the limits were. At the time, the limits were actually quite few, reporting was almost unheard of (for all the good it would have done) and, though the content was limited, the imaginations of the players were not limited, so we created wholly unique things to occupy ourselves.
Once the game was released (and even in the few weeks before hand) things started to change. Promised content was shelved, restrictions were imposed and the imaginations of some of the truly creative players were stifled. I feel like this was the beginning of what a lot of people see as being what ruined TSO in the long run. There is a quote from Will Wright along the lines of him wanting, ideally, 1% of the players to create the fun for the other 99%, but once the limitations started kicking in, that 1% was effectively reigned in. Not that it stopped us all, not that it stopped most of us, but it got some people pushed out or banned, and it was something that jaded many of us.
The lack of introduction of custom content caused a lot of CC-creators from the offline games to leave. The perceptions and outcry of the "masses" (or, more realistically, the outspoken) caused the departure of a lot more people who just wanted to have fun in ways that were not accepted by others.
For me, and quite a few others I know, burnout kicked in. Those who have left (and some who haven't) felt this at various stages, but there comes a point where you can't take any more breaks. Creating fun for other people does become a burden - sometimes you just want to kick back and let others do the work, but there's sometimes an entitlement from the ones who partake in your hospitality, and it becomes difficult to keep going for the sake of others.
I think, in part, that the entitlement of some of the player base has caused the game to stifle. Other factors are (IMO), the lack of regular content updates, the assumption of a certain sect of the player base that they should (or do) have more control over the game than they in fact do, and the lingering God-mode mindset that wants the game to be one specific way, without variation or controversy. Playing Happy Family or Dysfunctional Family is great for some, but not everyone has the same playstyle and it often seemed to me (toward the end of my playtime, anyway) that there was a large enough segment of the community that wanted to dictate the "right way" that it left quite a few plays discontent overall with the supposed rules and the backlash they would experience from some of this.
Keep in mind that all of the above is without touching on the interpersonal drama that tends to wear thin for a lot of players. As much as that, too, affected my decision to leave, it's not something that I really think is a deal maker or breaker for players of the game.
I have fond memories of playing this game, memories that I will hold on to. I also have several lasting friendships that came from my time in TSO and that means the world to me, but it's simply not enough to justify paying for something that I just could not motivate myself to play.
All in all, though, I find the premise of TSO to be severely lacking. Inherently, it is a boring game with the intent of relying on those with active imaginations to create something outside the box - which is not always (or even mostly) welcomed by the playerbase or the developers, and that is the major flaw.
I think it's unrealistic for any company to expect their customers to create their own amusement while having restrictions that are unclear or contradictory to the overall concept of the game. The early lack of communication and broken promises left a lot of people wary of the long-term outcome of the game (and, I believe, rightly so). There is an underlying boredom within the gameplay; a certain feeling of searching for something that may or may not exist and an almost-despair at what will be found while searching for the undefined fun that should exist, that used to exist, that could exist if only the right people could create it.
No, TSO is not for everyone. Even for the people who are dedicated to and love the game, it will probably not always be for them. At this point, it seems to me, that the vast majority of those playing have been around for a while and the negative opinions of the game (primarily from punished players, those who have no or limited experience with it or people who just like to complain) have effectively prevented quite a few people from trying it out for long enough to actually find fun within it.
It is more successful that some of the EA games that have previously folded. EnB and MCO are often lauded as "better games" and games that should have been salvaged to the detriment of TSO, but those games never pulled the numbers that TSO did and, as far as I can tell, never had as dedicated and hardcore a playerbase. There is no comparison between TSO and games of the bang-bang-shoot-'em-up (BBSEU) genres, it is something entirely different and, at the time of release if not still, a revolutionary idea.
I don't begrudge anyone this game, nor would I push for the closure of TSO. Regardless of my own opinion on how long the game will last at this point, I do see people who enjoy it, but I also see a lot of people who are still holding out for a little something more. Something I fear, they will never get from TSO as it exists today or as it appears to be going.
To those who say the game is boring, you're right, but that's partly your own fault for not trying to find or create the fun. To those who say it's fun, you're right, too, but remember that it's the efforts of others that make it so, and see if you can't do your part to keep it fun for THEM so that your fun can continue.
I don't really know what to say in conclusion, or even why I took this time to write all of this out. I think that TSO fills a gap in the MMO market and it truly saddens me that the BBSEU players can't acknowledge how TSO has served the overall market by bringing in players who would otherwise never have ventured into the online gaming arena.
Both sides have their points and it takes a certain type of person to really enjoy TSO for all it has to offer. Just because you don't like it, doesn't make it a bad game, but just because you *DO* like it, doesn't mean that it's good.
My bottom line is this: TSO, in and of itself, is a mediocre game that appeals to a niche market. It's the players themselves that turn the basic game into something that you're either going to love or hate... or develop an allergy to. I once heard Jerry Garcia say that the Grateful Dead (and I think he mentioned Woody Allen as well) is like buttermilk, you either love it or you hate it, there's very little middle ground. I'd apply the buttermilk factor to TSO as well, but I think you're in good company

All I can really say is, have you tried TSO -- lately?
Seriously, if it's been more than a few months, I think it will really surprise you! Between the crafting, the new crafted objects, the ability to buy and wear all the clothing formerly only available to newly-created sims, the upcoming interactive War Game (currently available in Betaville), free-will, sim families (yes, real ones), and proposed city-to-city avatar moves and advanced, interactive means of skilling... and most of that was all just within the past couple of months!
The game is coming around; the development team has been really responsive lately, and our new Community Service Rep, Maxis Sahara, has been a real godsend to the Stratics community!
This is not to say that I think you're wrong. TSO is indeed not for everyone; and it's entirely possible it might still not be for you. But don't judge the game based on experiences that are more than a year old! Despite claims to the contrary, TSO is a fluid, evolving game - especially lately. Any opinions or experiences you've had deep in the past are likely not valid anymore.

Katheryne, I understand what you're saying and I'm making a point to not dwell on the idea of you finding anyones "experiences or opinions" to no longer be valid. It's been significantly less than a year since I've played. In fact, I held on to my account for a long time after I left the O-forums in the hopes that something would change to renew my interest.
The problem is, as I stated in my original post, is that the premise of TSO is lacking. No matter how much content they add or how they change the available options within the game, to change the premise would be to destroy the game.
The things you mention, new clothing, a new group object, crafting, these things serve to enhance the gameplay of those who already enjoy the game, but adding to the existing concept is not going to change the underlying design of the game.
You mention Betaville and free will as if it might lure me (or other departed players like me) back into the game, but Betaville won't draw me back anymore than the release of The Sims 2 renewed my interest in playing offline. I burned out on the offline game and I burned out on the online game. Frankly, I keep up on the updates and the community and for all the bells and whistles, I don't see much of a change in the fundamentals of the game.
As I stated clearly in the very beginning of my original post, I'm not here to trash the game. Why would I when I've made some dear friends and, for quite a while, had a good time? But what I think you're missing is the reasonings in my post. There are very valid reasons that people leave, as well as reasons that people just don't *get* the concept. No matter how hard you try, you'll never convince people to like this game if it isn't for them, let alone to love it.
Communication with developers and community reps is all well and good, but how does that really affect the game? I know that for the avid forum posters it makes you think you're being better or more heard than when they don't communicate, but it doesn't change the development of the game for Kyle or Randy or Sahara to poke their head into the forums and fill you in on what's going on. There's a vast amount of people who never touch the forums and still love the game. Personally, I never had a complaint with communication between developers and players, I only ever had an issue with the fundamental concept of game and becoming tired of that concept in and of itself.
holly piuece of sh.... YOU PEOPLE DO KNOW WAHT YOUR TALKNIG ABOUT.really like this post. two points of view, real answers. damn good. but really.... i eman, come on. the game is not the best, but either the worst. check bloodlust, for example.... AWFUL.
the problem with TSo is that there's no point. no real-fight style, no imnovation, at all..........................
plz maxis, you got to update TSo like, like,,, a lot. every one. no stuff, no fun, come on. imnovation, make something like, new, you know what i mean
hope got some answers... bye
Why do you think there needs to be a fight style?
Fyre, I am quite curious - what do you think would need to be done to the basic outline of the game to make it more fun? What should the point of the game be?
I am not sure if The Sims really ever had a direct point, so I think it is kind of hard to expect the online one to have a point other than user created goals.

This is a sample from our $15 conventional basket a couple of weeks ago!
We just placed our produce order for pick-up on Saturday from our Bountiful Baskets produce co-op.
We skipped last week for Penniless Week, but we were so excited to see two additional offerings this week that are right up our alley!
We grabbed our basket of 50% fruit and 50% veggies, but also these two additional items:
- 10 lb. box of Heirloom Organic Tomatoes (I will be canning and or freezing many for future use) for $12.74. This is $1.28 each lb., which is hard to get even regular tomatoes for this price in our area.
- 12 6oz. clam shell packs of Blackberries for $14.25. This is $1.19 each package, which is a great price. They are $2.99 – $3.99 for regular blackberries in our local grocery stores. I plan to freeze these as well!
Our total was a bit more than normal, but stocking up on Blackberries and Organic Heirloom Tomatoes for a great price is awesome!
We will be picking this order up on Saturday!
Have you gotten any of these before?
If you want to see if they are available in your area too, then…
Head to Bountiful Baskets HERE and choose your state and then a pick-up location closest to you from the drop-down menu.
If Bountiful Baskets is not in your state yet, either contact them to see what they need to start one or keep watching for them to open up in your state too! They are rapidly growing and rapidly opening other states. We have been fortunate to have been the first state and so we have been able to do this for quite some time!
*Please note, you only have until tomorrow night (Tuesday, February 4th) at 10pm PST to order your produce for this week for pick-up on Saturday at a local location!
Also, to fully understand what we are talking about, you do need to read this article HERE.

Keele University
Education (International Education)
Entry requirements
Applicants should have a good degree, usually a 2.2, from a recognised University or ability to demonstrate relevant professional experience to an equivalent standard; and in either case, have English as a 1st language, or evidence of written and spoken fluency.
Course modules
Year 1: learners, learning and assessment; international educational practice; creative practice. Year 2: the personalized curriculum; global educational issues; research methods; dissertation.
Assessment methods
The academic programme is assessed through written work in the form of essays, case studies and critical reflective reviews; the use of these forms of assessment enables judgements to be made about participants knowledge and understanding of module content and their capacity to critically examine theory in the light of practice and vice versa. The research proposal and dissertation, which comprise the Masters phase of the programme, enable the assessment of participants' ability to select, apply and evaluate appropriate research methodologies for their chosen individual study. The assessment of the teaching placement modules is structured around an adapted version of the teaching standards for England. To satisfy these standards participants must provide evidence of their ability to plan, deliver and assess lessons that are focused on student learning. They also need to compile a portfolio of evidence that supports their case for achieving the standards and complete a critically reflective commentary that draws on the evidence in the portfolio. Formative assessment in the programme takes a variety of forms, it includes the completion of preparatory tasks for the taught sessions that are used as the basis for discussion, on-line tasks that are used to consolidate or extend the work that has been undertaken in the taught sessions and short presentations that are developed either as individual tasks or from small group discussions.

We know that the G8 Heads of Government have endorsed their Environment Ministers' decisions for immediate action to combat the vast international trade in parts from endangered mammals. Now, our Court of Appeal denies the Crown Prosecution Service leave even to appeal to the House of Lords to stop horns worth all this money from one of the world's most endangered mammals being returned to a convicted criminal. It makes nonsense of the law.
The horns reportedly smuggled here were seized by the police in 1986 on an RSPCA tip-off. Apparently, the 103 horns were collected by Mr Bull before 1985 import controls were instigated and this amazing decision now surely undermines the work done by Customs & Excise and the police to stop the trade.
The RSPCA rightly says that repercussions could be international and conservationists overseas may take the UK to the cleaners on this issue. Ignorance and/or preoccupation with legal technicalities has given a tremendous boost to those who are intent on seeing the extermination of the few remaining tigers and rhinos for money. All this is while African law enforcement men are murdered trying to protect endangered species in countries such as Zambia, which has now lost virtually all its rhino.
I appeal to Britain's conservationists to call for a public enquiry or to seek justice in other courts. Why deny a hearing by law lords rich in experience as well as many who are notable for their common sense and their realisation that conservation responsibilities have to be taken seriously?

Black Pro Stars?
Have a set of pro stars i got for $20 from a friend. There are 2 that are in good shape and the chrome is peeling on the other 2. I was wondering if anyone had a picture of these wheels painted black, and what would i have to do to prep the wheels for paint?

What is the state of elections and campaign finance, six years after the Supreme Court's landmark ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission? In that case, the Court held that corporate funding of independent political communications in campaigns for public office cannot be limited under the First Amendment.
Link: Take Our Podcast Survey
Since then, the Court also struck down aggregate limits on individual political contributions in a single election cycle. There have also been proposals to overturn Citizen United with a constitutional amendment. And to this point in the 2016 presidential campaign, super PACs and other outside groups have raised nearly $400 million and spent nearly half that amount.
Joining We the People to explore the constitutional landscape after Citizens United and to assess the decision's impact on the 2016 election are two leading experts on the front lines of the debate.
David Keating is President of the Center for Competitive Politics.
Paul S. Ryan is Deputy Executive Director of the Campaign Legal Center.

UCLA football: Jake Locker cleared to play
After several days of deliberation, Washington quarterback Jake Locker (rib) was finally cleared to play Tuesday. Coach Rick Neuhesiel said he wasn't ever buying Locker sitting out.
"It's the biggest joke of all time," Neuheisel said. "The man's playing. It's just the way it is."
The Bruins have prepared accordingly for a spirited effort from Locker, who will be making his final start of his college career in front of the home crowd.
"We're talking about an extremely experienced and well-oiled machine," safety Tony Dye said. "He's worth all the hype. He's an amazing leader. He carries his team. You can see it in film."
UCLA also has seen, on film and in person, how Locker can keep plays alive with his legs. The Bruins have struggled against dual-threat quarterbacks this season (i.e. Oregon's Darron Thomas, Arizona's Matt Scott, Stanford's Andrew Luck).
"He can do it all," safety Rahim Moore said. "He probably can hit if you put him on defense. He's that type of athlete."

[PHOTO] SDB: Little Showoff | Mon, 3 May 1999 22:27:36" />
Here's the infamous Little Showoff! I think everyone probably grows this
thing. It's absolutely gorgeous.
LITTLE SHOWOFF (Earl Hall 1989) - SDB, pale icy blue, lavendar/blue beards.
Reblooms. Cook-Douglas 1998.
(That's PRECIOUS LITTLE PINK off in the background.)
This particular flower bloomed with one abnormality. It had 3 anthers, but
one of them lacked a style arm. 3 anthers, but 2 style arms. Weird. The
other flower off to the right bloomed just perfectly.
Ain't it gawjus?!

I would like to say that Sum Total is not like Sum and Substance. It is
larger and has a rich deep green center with a variable chartreuse edge. It
also looks great even into the fall when it is the best looking plant in my
yard during the autumn season. I also love Montana Macrophylla which has
great form and texture.

No it's not what they call me,
It's what I call myself.
Too scared,
To stop smiling.
That each and everyone,
Will turn away from me,
If I show them how I really am,
The bit I hate to love.
I put on each day,
The tough guy thing,
that I don't care what the rest of the world thinks,
Thats not who I am
Each time I decline,
Going out, for some small reason,
While I just don't want,
To have to deal with everyone else.
Always looking over my shoulder,
For that time when you stop laughing with me,
And start laughing at me.
One day it's going to get out, My facade is not who I am,
Society, who bases so much on being strong of body and mind,
I pray that when I come clean,
I'll still be able to laugh.

Brilliant experience. Would highly recommend this trip. Expert advise on hand and very well looked after
October 2016
Incredible! Fantastic fun-filled day! Staff were amazing, informative and friendly. We saw green sea turtles, reef sharks, clams and an amazing array of fish. Snorkel or cruise the reef in a glass-bottom boat, or just laze on the beach. Great day all round. Good for any fitness level and for kids. Do as much or as little as you like.
October 2016
Superb boat trip and view of the reef and fish at The Low Isles. Quicksilver catamaran was very comfortable and whole trip well organised. We were I initially aprehensile about snorkeling but did not use the glass bottom boat and snorkeled all the time. Good lunch provided too. Thoroughly recommend this trip.

Cut foot Too many people, Not even a seat left to sit on while going and coming from Isle Not Happy. Supposed to go to outer barrier but now have an infected foot.
September 2016
Really recommend this day trip. The staff were excellent as they took care of a few people suffering from sea sickness. They do offer sea sick pills to those who are unsure how they will be. My wife found it hard going on the way out but was fine going back. Even so it is a wonderful experience with plenty to see and do. The island is lovely and we enjoyed seeing all the sea life including reef sharks coming close to the boat.
August 2016
Very well organised. The staff were really helpful and made sure we got the most out of our trip. Perfect for beginners like us. We got to swim with turtles, sharks and lots of different fish. Amazing experience!
June 2016
This was an amazing day brilliant team, everything so well organised. The marine biologist was so informative loved going snorkelling with him and doing the beach walk. Buffett lunch was also great and time on the glass bottom boat.
May 2016
March 2016
This was an excellent trip and the crew were great.
We decided to do the glass bottom boat trip first,
then return to the catarmaran for lunch before
venturing onto Low Isles in the afternoon.
Would definitely recommend hiring one of the
all-over lycra suits for 8AUS as this stopped us getting
sunburnt, and allowed us to still swim in the water around
the isle, even as we did not paticipate in the snorkelling.
