Rarely is so-called "difficult music" so rewarding, and rarely is it so simple.
People tend to like Joan of Arc when they play songs, but get all worked up and annoyed when the band stretches out with the experimental stuff. This record is a bunch of the stuff that would have pissed off that latter group of people had the music been bunched in with So Much Staying Alive...
The cache of "weird" songs on Rape Fantasy is better than the tracks collected on Staying Alive.

Do you have a favorite paranormal story and/or urban legend? When did you first hear it? What's the story behind the story?
Her name is Certy Sturluson and she's a dullahan living in Ikebukuro (Tokyo) known as the urban legend "The Black Rider" or "The Headless Rider". She's amazing as she wears a nekomimi helmet.
I learned of her existence about 10 weeks ago and she's currently living with the underground doctor Kishitani Shinra as she is looking for her missing head.

Open today. Maiden bloom, so this may not be a 'real' rebloomer, but it
does have the genes for it. Really pretty bloom, tho I know a lot of
current hybridizers will fault it for being too narrow (falls do not
touch) and not enough 'lift' to the falls.
The stalk is very short - hoping for better when it's older.

God. It's a word we commonly use, in and outside of church. In and outside of religions. But the real question is, does God exist?
There are many reasons for him to exist, and I used to go to mass every week with my brother and dad, just for the sake of going. I used to go along with it, I thought that there must be a good enough reason for all these smart people around me to believe in him, so I must just be missing something.
But alas; my eyes have been opened.
Over the past few weeks, I have been properly questioning my faith- my religion. And I have come to a conclusion. Fuck God. It's a load of bullshit.
I had to really have the nerve to type that, I'm not sure if it will be there when I check over my post, but right now- I'm trembling with fear. Will he do something? Will he punish me?
No. He won't. I tell myself, because he isn't there. Or if he is- he doesn't give a crap about us. Why the fuck do all the innocent humans die, why do we suffer?! Why doesn't he step in and do something about all this shit which is messing up our society. Why?
Oh yeah, he isn't there.

Wow, I dont believe in God but I've never gotten that angry about it, are you ok? Cheer up, (worst advice ever) and look on the bright side of life (another but of terrible advice), at least you have your health
Can I just say I feel your pain? I know I've been there before. I know there are no good answers to those kinds of questions because each person has to answer them for themself. But I would like to mention a few thoughts: one, death may not be a bad thing for those innocents. Maybe life is the harder fate. and two, Why don't YOU step in and do something about all that mess in society? How do we expect Him to change things, to fix wrongs in our society, to stop innocent deaths, if none of us actually gets up and does something and lets him work through us? (Unless you expect him to sweep in with a multitude of angel warriors and fix people against their god-given will) Things will never change untill we give him something to work with. So all I can say is, I am so sorry for what you are feeling, but don't give up. You don't know the whole story. Once you've done everything in your power to fix the world and still nothing happens, then you can tell me that God does nothing. But I still have hope.
I don't know all the answers, heck, I don't even know all of the questions. But we are here, given this life to make of it what we can. Keep looking for answers. And keep writing.
Mhm. You've grown up a step from most people, even if it was a bit violent-sounding. Now you have to look for the answers to questions that can help you and other people.
Agreed. I feel the same way, just not that strongly. Like when someone gets hurt, and then survives, they say, "God was with us that day" but why would God let something bad like that happen in the first place? It doesn't make sense, so I guess you'd call me an Atheist... I don't really know... But yeah, I agree. My family is the same as me, except my mom USED to be a Christian, but not anymore. I got side-tracked on this when I went to read your new novel... :P
Yeah, when I believe something I feel that way really strongly, it's quite annoying sometimes > < That's exactly what I think, every miracle is God's work, but what about when you think about all of the bad things? Who's fault is that? Yey, I hope you enjoyed my novel! Thanks for reading ;) x

Fantastic! Must not miss! Beautiful location! Pick up and drop off is very convenient as Mt. Vernon is about 45 minutes from D.C. city center probably longer if there's a lot of traffic
Loved this tour very interesting easy to get to meeting place and guide was very informative and fun loved the fact we were dropped back to our hotel after a great day.
My family and I had a wonderful time!
Only wish I'd had more time. So much to see at Mt. Vernon. Don't miss the education building!
Joe and Bobby gave me a great history lesson. I learned a lot from them. I wished we had time to stop in Alexandria and look at the sites.
Our tour guide, Tunda, was wonderful!
Very good
Very enjoyable trip. Tour guide was very helpful and courteous. The ride to Mt Vernon was comfortable. I would recommend this trip to someone that is interested in seeing Mt. Vernon without the hassle of driving yourself. The tour also had tickets ready for us to enter the mansion and we were able to get right in without delay.
This was my favorite tour. It was amazing.
I was alone during this trip on a weekday. The driver, tour guide was very nice, very informative about the sites and I was happy w/ this company. Good job!
Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. Would book another tour with him.
So much history, Fascinating!
The tour was great. Our guide was very funny. It was a great day and tour and I would book it again.
This is a wonderful tour. Appreciated the driver's information about Alexanderia,and the stop at Christ's Church in Alexandria where George Washington worshipped. We had 3 hours at Mt. Vernon,time to tour and take it all in.
Joe I think that's his name told us a lot of very interesting information on the way out and Mount Vernon was just great. Paul showed up on time to give us a ride back.
Recommend this trip highly.
We had a great time. The trip was good and very informative. The bus driver, Big Joe, was great to ride with and kept us on our toes with facts and questions. I would recommend this trip!
There were only two couples on this tour so it was very personable with each other and the tour guide.
Had a great day, well worth the time. The history was very interesting as we're both the educational centre and museum. The tour guide was good fun and had very good knowledge on the history but also on golf.
It was great!
A very nice trip. Mt. Vernon is beautiful. It was a very hot day so we didn't explore as much as we thought we would.
My daughter and I had a fantastic time at Mt. Vernon our driver was very helpful and kind.
Christopher USA
Our tour guide, Joe, was fantastic. He challenged my teen son with trivia questions on American history related to George Washington and produced a family contest while driving to Mt. Vernon. When a school field trip arrived ahead of us, Joe adjusted the tour appropriately. We loved this opportunity Joe afforded us. We would go on another tour with Joe in the Washington, DC area.
It was a wonderful tour, everything worked smoothly and I learned so much from my driver, Paul!
Great tour...I highly recommend. Our tour guide Paul was super. The three stops in Alexandria were very informative and the docent lead tour at the Mt. Vernon mansion was wonderful. I recommend you give yourself at least three hours to tour the mansion and grounds and to have a quick bite.

On the a.m. website, go to the lower right and start the webradio. works fine so
far. visit a different site (e.g. search for this bug on bugzilla), then return
to ish.com: The music still plays, but moz hangs completely. tried with build
which realplayer 8 or 9
sorry for the late response - was on vacation. realplayer 8
cannot reproduce the hang using rh7.2 mozilla 2002080708 build & realplayer 8
unfortunately i still cant confirm this - suse 7.3, build 2002081208. still the
same effect, patly it hangs even earlier. can i do something to support you,
e.g. any debug or something?
if you have any flash plugin (libflashplayer.so) installed, could you try to
rename it let say in libflashplayer.so1 and try to hang mozilla again?
if i rename the flash-plugin it works fine -> no hang anymore
what can I say? flash blocks on audio device, I'm marking this as a dup of bug 58339
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 58339 ***

Despite recent advances in surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, malignant gliomas remain universally fatal, with a median survival of 12-15 months for glioblastoma and 2-5 years for anaplastic astrocytoma. Limitations in neuroimaging complicate the clinical management of patients with gliomas, and impede efficient testing of new therapeutics. Amide proton transfer (APT) imaging is a novel molecular MRI technique that generates image contrast based on the endogenous cellular proteins in tissue. This APT imaging project has been extremely successful during the first grant period (7/09-4/13). We developed several relatively fast three- dimensional APT imaging sequences at 3T and 7T and established several effective image acquisition protocols and image processing approaches for imaging of human brain tumors. In addition, we demonstrated that APT imaging is a highly valuable addition to the MRI armamentarium for the more specific characterization of human brain tumors. Notably, our preclinical study in various glioma models and models of radiation- induced necrosis in rats clearly showed that active glioma (hyperintense) and radiation necrosis (hypointense or isointense) exhibited opposite APT-MRI signals, and could thus readily be distinguished. These preclinical results are exciting, and, if validated with appropriately powered studies in patients, the implications for clinical care and experimental therapeutics will be enormous. The ultimate goal for APT imaging is its standard use in a clinical setting on a variety of MRI systems from different vendors. However, clinical APT-MRI experiments are often limited by scanner hardware constraints (particularly amplifier duty cycle and pulse length) and specific absorption rate (SAR) requirements. Therefore, current APT imaging protocols vary substantially among different institutes, far from being optimized, and the results acquired from different research centers are difficult to compare to one another. The overall goals of this renewal application are to refine this important protein-based molecular MRI technology into a sensitive, user-friendly, and clinically reproducible approach and to demonstrate its potential to help resolve several diagnostic dilemmas in brain cancer therapy. Based on the results obtained in the previous grant period and recent progress in the field, we have designed the following three specific aims: (1) implement and optimize the parallel RF transmission (pTX)-based APT-MRI technique at 3T;(2) evaluate the clinical value of APT-MRI in identifying non-Gd-enhancing high-grade gliomas;and (3) quantify the accuracy of APT-MRI in distinguishing pseudoprogression from true tumor progression in GBM treated with chemoradiation therapy. If this step of the APT investigation is successful, this research will provide the optimized approaches and critical sensitivity and specificity data required to translate this important APT-MRI technology into the clinic.
This renewal project aims to refine the novel protein-based amide proton transfer (APT) imaging technology into a sensitive and highly reproducible approach and to evaluate the ultimate potential of this important MRI technique for the noninvasive molecular diagnosis of malignant brain tumors before and after treatment. The evaluation will address some major diagnostic dilemmas in the management of patients with brain cancer. If successful, the research will significantly improve the accuracy of tissue sampling and response assessment for patients with malignant brain tumors, directly and rapidly impacting patient care.

Being a sequel to Space Station Omega, there's three design principles that I need to stick by:
It needs to feel like Doom
It must have a strong intrinsic story
It must have user choiceThe first point - it needs to feel like Doom - is something I'm trying to stick to, but the nature of the story in this one means that there's a lot of stuff you just can't find in Doom in here. The first part being that you're invading a marine base. Using marines as enemies has long been seen as something you shouldn't really do in Doom. Especially if you use the stock ZDoom marines. Their code is freaking brutal. It's not fun to play against them. Rather than just sticking with those marines though, I've gone in and altered every single marine's DECORATE entry. In many cases, I am not using the A_M_* functions. A lot of my playtesting (and the testing I'm asking volunteers to do) is going in to creating balanced marine fights. I'm also chosing to not play fair in some cases. Just like in deathmatch, if you meet someone with a SSG you're in for a world of pain. So I put SSG marines in select locations. It's all designed to keep you on your toes and not feel entirely safe when you charge in to a group of marines.
The second point - it must have a strong intrinsic story - is coming along excellently. I've learnt a lot about storytelling over the last ten years. Taking my original outline for The Gateway Experiments, I've skipped a few chapters and am working on the one that I was looking forward to working on the most. A few things have happened in the interim - most significantly for the characters, Russell and Elaine's ship was boarded as they made their escape from Space Station Omega and Elaine was captured. The driving force for Russell's motivation in the latter half of episode 2 and in episodes 3 and 4 was to rescue Elaine. That was a success. Elaine didn't come out unscathed though, as the interrogation/torture she went through has left her with Post Traumatic Stress. Elaine needs Russell as a means of holding on to normality, and despite the fact that she killed her interrogator she still doesn't have the closure she needs on the Gateway Experiments. But, as always, player choice is a large part of how she deals with it.
And that ties in to the last point. In the early stages of Prime Directive, the only real choice you have is how to deal with Elaine. Through necessity (and as a result of atmosphere/tension building), the first section of the base assault is a bit of a linear trek through the base. You're constantly on the back foot, and you have no choice but to push in a safer direction than the way you'd rather go. But then there's a point where that all changes, and you start to get the upper hand. And that's where the SSO choice comes back to the forefront. Once you realistically have a choice, that's when I'm letting the player have one.
The current development choices I'm facing though is how to keep a non-linear Metroid/Dark Souls approach to the larger part of the campaign without spiralling the map design out of control. There's story beats I need to hit, there's choices I need to leave the player, and there's the fact that I don't want to spend all my spare time up till November getting this WAD in order. Hitting that initial flow up to the yellow keycard was easy. The rest of it is not as easy. But it is a great design challenge.

Arab Strap, London, Kings Cross Water Rats (0171-837 7269) Fri
The cancellation of Monsters Of Rock this year has meant Reading Festival is doing its best to cater for devotees of hairy noise on the main stage. But those hoping to escape Metallica, Terrorvision, Bush et al could do worse than head for the Doc Marten stage, which will host the joyous, spiky pop of Sweden's Girlfrendo.
The Gothenburg trio of Jo, Sara and Per threaten to be one of the highlights of the day, if their effervescent teen-noise on record is anything to go by. The pogoing chorus and jagged-edge attitude of "Love Bite" gained them Radio One support from Steve Lamacq and John Peel, the latter offering them a session.
But back in Gothenburg, Girlfrendo have to deal with the fall-out of being championed first in Britain. Luckily, they had a bouncy sense of humour to handle it at recent Swedish festivals Lollipop (David Bowie, Johnny Cash) and International Pop Underground.
"It's harder to play in front of Swedish people," muses Sara. "They like everything professional. They hate us! We only got to play Lollipop because they heard we were playing Reading. They think we are big in England."
The mischievous giggles of Jo and Sara make it obvious they secretly relish a little hometown animosity. But one person cannot give his side of the story. Per, a Pet Shop Boys and New Order fan, is absent for the interview. "He likes to think he is in control of the band," the girls laugh. "He writes the music, and we write the lyrics. We really are professionals; we have been working hard to harmonise our vocals," Jo says with mock seriousness.
Slickness is a long way off yet. At the moment, attitude and a healthy naivety stands alongside the singalong pop. "At our gigs, the first half is horrible. Then things are fine and the second half goes too quickly. We like the adrenalin, and people looking at us."
GIG HIGHLIGHT The chaos that underscored Arab Strap's previous London appearance as support to Mogwai will probably encourage hordes of potential new fans to check out these bleak- humoured Scots. Literate, post-Trainspotting humour from indie hipsters not averse to a little liquid refreshment.

"After last night, I feel it was really special to be the first person to light the cauldron for Youth Olympic Games, it is a huge honour." Darren Choy said.
"At first I didn't want to do it, I'm not good with that sort of stuff, but then I realised that it is a huge honour."
Choy was sworn to secrecy about his role and even attended a secret midnight rehearsal last Saturday night.
"It wasn't that hard keeping it a secret, my parents knew, but I didn't want to tell anyone," Choy said.
And the secrecy appears to have paid off. Not only did Choy light up the Olympic Cauldron, but he also sparked up some excitement in the Youth Olympic Games' sailing community.
"It was so great," USA's Margot Samson said, "Even though he's in Byte and we're in windsurfing it's still sailing itself, that was the final touch."
Her team mate Ian Stokes (USA) said: "It was one of the coolest things I've ever seen in my whole life, that was sweet!"
Choy, who is the current World Champion, is competing in the Byte Cll class sailing event at the National Sailing Centre, East Coast Park.

Around 748 BC. Titus Tatius introduced the the sun god to Rome. It fit in with the many god's and cults. Around 50 AD. Circus Maximus was used for SOL worship, an event. In 274 AURELIAN made SOL INVICTUS more institued and founded a college for leaders of SOL worship.
SOL INVICTUS, was on coins, images and highly worshipped. *n 321 CONSTANTINE made a LAW - DAY OF THE SUN - [the offical day of rest]* Sunday was the day to honor SOL INVICTUS and JESUS. JESUS was brought into the fold, with SOL and the other cults and god's.
Constantine before a battle, had a vision in the sun of a cross. Somehow I feel equated JESUS and the sun. Equating son of GOD, son of man, maybe sun and son, but JESUS was in the fold with SOL INVICTUS. *SUNDAY WAS BY ROMAN LAW* the day to worship SOL INVICTUS and JESUS. Who was to tell Rome any different?
It is interesting in the New Testament, that there is an Epistal to Titus. The same first name as Titus Tatus, the man who introduced SOL to Rome. Not to mention the Epistal of ROMANS. Maybe a omen of GOD or a message to note.?????????

Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII is a role-playing video game that is rated "Teen." This is largely due to frequent violence -- using might and magic -- as well as blood and potentially disturbing death sequences. The game also features women with revealing clothing, a camera that often focuses on it, and mild profanity. There is some alcohol consumption, and there are some alcohol references, in the game.

What's it about?
The latest in the Final Fantasy XIII series, which has shipped more than 10 million games worldwide, Square Enix's LIGHTNING RETURNS: FINAL FANTASY XIII is a conclusion to the Japanese-made fantasy role-playing game (RPG) franchise. In this single-player game for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, gamers play as Lightning, a young heroine on a quest to save a doomed world, and can change up Lightning's look, abilities, and actions throughout multiple, expansive environments. While adventuring through Nova Chrysalia, gamers will master the fast-paced battle system that lets players choose whom to attack, how, and when. This final chapter in the Final Fantasy XIII saga also includes some familiar faces -- including Serah, Hope, Noel, Snow, Sazh, Vanille, Fang, and others -- and somewhat ties up loose story lines from previous games.
Is it any good?
It's not as good as the previous Final Fantasy XIII games, but this final chapter does excel in deep customization options (weapons, skills, and outfits), stunning graphics (especially the cut-scene sequences but also the huge set pieces), and an interesting combat mechanic that blends speed with strategy. Problem is, this concluding adventure in the series feels more repetitive than its predecessors -- encounter enemies, defeat, move on, and start the process again -- plus the story is unnecessarily convoluted (many Japanese RPG fans already expect this, but Lightning Returns is even more difficult to understand). It's not a bad game overall, mind you, but only major fans of the series will get something substantial out of it. Note: The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions are the same.
Families can talk about...
Final Fantasy games are usually rated "Teen," but are some of these cut sequences -- involving multiple dead bodies in a pool of blood -- too much for even 13+-year-olds? Read CSM's 56 Ways to get Spooked (Safely).

Bob Langert thought he knew where his life was headed. A few years after college, he took a job at a transportation and packaging company outside of Chicago that did huge business with McDonald's. He envisioned working one day in logistics or operations for McDonald's corporate headquarters. Then in the late 1980s, he was given a six-month assignment to eliminate the chlorofluorocarbons and find a way to recycle the polystyrene in the clamshell packaging that McDonald's was then using. He had no idea what CFCs and polystyrene were, but he jumped right in. "It was my moment of change," recalls Langert, now 53. "I really love working on environmental issues, combining whatever talents I have for getting things done with my larger motivation for making a difference in the world."
Today he has found his way into the executive suite at McDonald's as head of corporate social responsibility (CSR). The Golden Arches may be better known for selling trans fat (now largely eliminated in the United States) and high-fructose corn syrup than for being green, but Langert believes that big companies are the best vehicle for creating broad, far-reaching change. (Think Wal-Mart's green initiatives.)
Under Langert's direction, the company has started buying from sustainable fisheries and recycling 100% of its frying oil in the U.K. into biodiesel. But if corporations don't deal with their most vexing sustainability issues, the aspirations of CSR chiefs add up to little more than PR.
For McDonald's, the challenge is what we'll call the "Big Mac problem." Studies show that beef production generates more greenhouse gases than any other food product, and it's no secret that industrial beef practices are an inefficient and unsustainable use of land and water. Langert says he intends to address these issues. "We have an obligation to use our size and leverage to work with our suppliers to make a difference," he asserts, shortly after eating a double hamburger, fries, and a strawberry shake for lunch.
But even a $23 billion company with 31,000 restaurants doesn't have enough pull in the beef business to effect changes on its own. By the time the chain gets its beef, it's frozen into the size and consistency of an air-hockey puck. The company has no direct contact with farmers, who could reduce nitrous-oxide emissions, or with feedlot operators, who could capture methane from manure lagoons and prevent wastewater runoff.
"McDonald's doesn't have all the influence we may think it does," says John Buchanan, senior director of business practices at Conservation International, which is working with McDonald's on a number of environmental initiatives. "It needs to partner with other big companies."
To that end, Langert is hoping to form a better-beef coalition with agribusinesses such as Cargill, major beef buyer Wal-Mart, and trade and environmental groups. Discussions are still preliminary, Langert says, but "we want to take a leadership role."
If it seems like a long shot, well, Langert knows a thing or two about coalitions. In 2006, after withering criticism in Europe that McNuggets were destroying the Amazon rain forest, Langert approached Cargill, which was trading soybeans from the Amazon. The two companies worked with Greenpeace and soybean producers ADM and Bunge on a ban on using soy from recently deforested areas in feed. The original two-year term has been extended once, and another renewal is expected in July.
Soon after winning the ban, Langert found himself floating down the Amazon in a motorized raft with environmental activists. "It was," he says, "one of the most memorable things I've ever done."
A version of this article appeared in the April 2009 issue of Fast Company magazine.

Our boat's engine splutters to a stop and we peer over the side in silence. This is Spot X, a dive site with no name or listing in scuba guides to the Azores. Well, so I'm told. Actually, we're some distance off Sao Miguel's black basalt cliffs, our little vessel rocking to the long ocean swell and there's no indication of a dive site at all. There's no island nor rock pinnacle. Not even a hint of seabed despite visibility of more than 30 metres. Spot X seems to be nothing more than coordinates on the GPS.
Most unnerving of all is the water. Instead of the usual turquoise, it's the Quink-shade of deep ocean. "I've never reached the bottom on this dive," Sofiane Belkessa says cheerfully.
Poor Sofiane. This was the third day that the owner of Nerus Dive Centre had been stuck with me. I'm the first visitor on Regaldive's advanced open-water course in the Azores and by chance I've come at the same time as his French dive buddies. So, while they marvelled at the sea life, he had watched me swim in triangles for the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (Padi) underwater navigation module. While they sank post-dive beers at Ponta Delgada marina, he quizzed me on Padi's homework or gamely assessed wonky images for my photography module, the diving equivalent of a scout's house-keeping badge. It was probably dives such as Spot X that made his job worthwhile. And now I was getting the jitters.
Still, we had taken half the morning to get here. No turning back now. Cocooned in 6mm wetsuits, we drop overboard. This is what astronauts must feel like, I think, as we drop weightless into the void, exhaling silver saucers to the surface. Ten metres, 15, 20. Still we fall, the only sound is the alternate hiss and rumble of my breathing. Then it appears: a long curve which arcs into the blue gloom. An edge to something huge. For a crazy moment, I think of spaceships.
We reach the rim of the volcano at 33 metres and drop into the crater where moray eels gape. The sides plummet to depths that I don't allow myself to think about, so I look up, just as three manta rays soar across the splintered sunlight like an outré sci-fi. Welcome to the Azores, where even the fish look extraterrestrial. This Portuguese archipelago is often hailed as the best diving destination in Europe. It hides in plain sight, 1,500km from Lisbon and 3,900km from New York; a mid-ocean roadhouse for Atlantic and Caribbean species alike: sardines, octopus and moray eels, but also loggerhead turtles, parrotfish, barracuda and manta rays. And because the nine islands spike almost vertically from the seabed, the world's largest pelagic species are found inshore: blue sharks, oceanic whitetips, spotted and bottlenose dolphins, and a third of the world's whale species.
Once hunted, the latter are now tracked on popular whale-watching trips from May to October. Factor-in volcanic landscapes, excellent visibility (no river run-off clouds the seas) and warm water of 16C to 22C (OK, warmish) and you have diver's Nirvana.
If few people realise all this, then the reputation of the Azores for pensioners' holidays is to blame. You can see how it appeals to cautious holidaymakers. It has a Goldilocks climate – not too hot, not too cold – and a bucolic exoticism. On Sao Miguel, the largest and most accessible of the islands, the verges of hawthorn-hedged lanes bloom with agapanthus and ginger lilies. Around the pretty Portuguese villages cows graze on calderas. It is a tangential reality, simultaneously familiar and fantastic.
Azores tourism has traditionally been sedate: bathing in geothermal pools; visits to pineapple plantations; even the whale-watching is ultimately passive. Yet the words above Nerus Dive Centre summed up Sao Miguel better: "Discovery. Adventure. Fun." With reputedly Europe's cleanest air, the islands now promote hiking and mountain-biking. It seems emblematic that young Scandinavians now come in droves and that Quiksilver and Red Bull choose Sao Miguel for annual surf and high-dive contests.
"Nature and the sea have always been a central part of life here, a part of our souls," my guide says. "And we want tourism," she continues, then adds quickly, "but not like in the Canaries," as if I will develop the rash idea that the Azores, with only one direct flight a week from the UK, might go mass-market.
Diving fits comfortably into the rebrand. Experience the raw ocean dives of the Azores and everywhere afterwards seems like a tepid tropical aquarium, I'd been told. All very exciting, but also troubling for a beginner. "A lot of people say, 'But you're in the middle of the ocean, it's deep, there are a lot of currents, it must be dangerous,'" says Pedro Jorge Piteira, of Azores Sub. "But there's a dive for all abilities here: technical, very deep, shallow, wreck dives, cave dives, easy dives with thousands of fish." To prove it, he takes me for a refresher in the sunlit shallows off Vila Franca, the island's former capital. It turns into a primer on history – we see old galleon canons and the "kitchen" where whalers once butchered their kill.
Yet diving here is in its infancy. Sure, Pedro wants to develop it, but not "like in the Red Sea". The lack of operators lets Sofiane pick from the sites around Sao Miguel's pocket-sized capital Ponta Delgada, where Nerus Dive Centre is based. A wreck-dive such as the Dori, 15 minutes from the marina, would be hugely popular in the Red Sea. Instead, we're alone. Well, alone except for carousels of fish by the ship's bridge, torpedo-shaped barracuda, hundreds of alien-eyed octopuses, fireworms like Rio carnival dancers and a stingray the size of my hotel's king-size bed which ripples off the deck.
What really wows is the sub-aquatic scenery. In Iceland, the Mid-Atlantic ridge produces landscapes to make your teeth rattle. In the Azores, that tear between the world's largest tectonic plates results in dives such as Baixa das Castanhetas in the Caloura Marine Reserve. Here, lava flows have constructed a city of monstrous arches. Pressed against the sand, we slip under one to enter a domed chamber bathed in slippery light.
I'm so surprised I barely blink at the miniature rubber dairy cow which crawls up a wall. Little thanks to my sketch of it for Padi's fish identification module, I find later it was some sea slug. Unbeknown to me, I was also being assessed by Sofiane to see if I was up to Spot X.
It turns out my taxi driver back to Ponta Delgada airport, a diver himself, also knows Spot X. In 1811, it boiled into existence as an island, he says. The captain of a passing warship, HMS Sabrina, claimed sovereignty for the British Crown, causing a diplomatic row only extinguished when Sabrina Island obligingly returned beneath the waves. He'll take me next time if I have a Padi qualification.
Of course, I say. Advanced.

I have a beautiful Abetta flex tree saddle on Arab Bars that I need to sell. I have never ridden in this saddle, it's only been fitted on a horse.
This saddle has never been ridden in, it's to wide for my narrower Arab, and to narrow for my incredibly wide haflinger!!
This saddle has 16" seat
The Arabian Trail incorporates traditional westwern styling on an Arabian Ralide Flex Arabian tree. 6 3/4" gullet.

WILKES-BARRE — Taking shelter in the Kirby Park Pavilion on Wednesday afternoon, Al Sheets said he's no fan of the summer heat. "I should have lived in Alaska," said Sheets, 67. "You can always put more clothes on (if it gets cold), but you can be naked and still sweating." With the humidity high and temperatures soaring up through the 80s, many local residents are seeking ways to beat the heat. As of Wednesday afternoon, the National Weather Service in Binghamton, New York, was predicting temperatures of 87 to 93 degrees over the next week in Wilkes-Barre. The Weather Channel's forecast as of Wednesday morning differed slightly, showing highs ranging from 90 to 97 degrees. According to the Weather Channel's own data, highs in Wilkes-Barre have averaged 85 degrees month to date — five degrees higher than the city's monthly average high for July. And despite the high temperatures and sparsity of rain, WNEP-TV Chief Meteorologist Tom Clark said Luzerne County is not officially in a drought. "You could argue that we are, but according to the United States Drought Monitor, the area is classified as being 'abnormally dry.' The next level up is moderate, and they call that 'a moderate drought.' Some places in the Northern Tier have that classification," Clark said. "We're down a few inches in rainfall this summer," Clark said, "and we're not getting any better. You can't rule out we won't be in a moderate drought by the end of the week." Sitting beneath a tree in Kirby Park, 87-year-old Teresa Piampiano said she's lived in the Northeast since 1975, when she emigrated from Italy, and that this summer feels hotter than last. But according to National Weather Service meteorologist Mitch Gilt, the spike in temperatures forecast for the next week "isn't unusual for July or early August." Gilt said that for the NWS to issue an advisory, the temperatures must rise to over 100, or at least feel that way on the heat index. The last time the temperature reached 100 degrees in the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area, according to Clark, was July 15, 1995. The hottest temperature ever in the area was 103 degrees on July 9, 1936. "It's rare to get up to 100 degrees around here. Maybe once every 10 or 15 years, it will hit 100," he said. Three straight days of temperatures at 90 or above officially constitute a heatwave, Clark said. And whether it's one day or a week's worth of such high temperatures, it's important to stay safe in the hot weather. According to the National Weather Service's Hazard Heat Report, 45 people died across the country as a result of extreme heat in 2015, which is a notable spike from the 2014 total of 20. In 2015, the most dangerous place to be was in a permanent home – likely with little or no air conditioning – according to the report. Pennsylvania was ranked as the third most deadly state, with four heat-related deaths in 2015. Gilt advised checking up on the elderly when temperatures are high, especially those with respiratory issues. He also stressed that it is unacceptable to leave children or pets in hot cars with the windows up. Sheets sported a shirtless, shoeless look when describing his methods for staying cool in the summer heat. Taking cold showers and staying in air conditioning, he said, is the key. Times Leader reporter Steve Mocarsky contributed to this report. Editor's Note: This story has been edited to correct the temperature ranges.

While we live abroad for work reasons, we invite you to enjoy and stay in our traditional-style apartment! It is located in a quiet pedestrian area in the center of Alicante, overlooking a cozy, sunny square hosting an aquarium with local fish species.
Conveniently enough, everything is close to our apartment! A 5-12min walk will take you anywhere from the beach, "La Explanada" boardwalk, leisure harbor area, and old town to the traditional food market, clothes shopping area, and night-out pub areas of "El Barrio" and "El Puerto". The airport bus stop is also 5min away, as well as the tram, bus and boat stations for day trips to nearby cost towns and Tabarca Island.
The apartment has 60 square meters and two small, sunny traditional-style balconies. It has a complete kitchen with American bar, dinning+living room, one bedroom with complete bathroom, one office with a big, comfortable bed-sofa and a toilet, and all facilities such as air conditioning, WiFi, cable TV, dishwasher, microwave and washing machine.
Enjoy your time in Alicante!
- I would be glad to provide tips on local day trips, restaurants, and similar interests, so that you can maximize your holidays.
- Water and amusement parks are available in Benidorm (30km north), which is reachable by car, bus and tram.
- The apartment is perfect for singles, couples, couples with 1-2 children, and 4 young adults. I would not recommend it for 4 senior adults for more than a week, since sleeping in a bedsofa, even if it is comfortable, is never like sleeping in a dedicated bed.

Wonderful tour,taking in quite a lot in one day. Enjoyed everything, especially seeing the sea at Cadiz, and those beautiful, amazing horses.
Great tour guide (Jose) useful and informative narrative and lovely manner to all the group giving us all personal attention. Just the right amount of group time and touring time. Lovely day all round
The description on the Viator web site is a little misleading. Firstly, it describes the pickup and drop off point as our hotel but it should have said near our hotel. Also, there is mention of a cruise which we took to mean a boat cruise but that did not materialise. Having said that, the pickup point was only about five minutes away from our hotel so no hassle.
It was a very long day with an excellent commentary whilst on the coach. The visit to a sherry winery at Jerez was very good with an excellent guide. We then went on to watch an Andalusian Horse Show which was really good. All that before lunch. On to Cádiz where we had some free time to have some lunch at one of the many cafes and looking around the shops.
A coach tour of Cádiz with a couple of stops for photos and a drive back to Seville.
Although the cost does not seem cheap, it does work out at very good value for money.
This tour was fabulous, our guide was very knowledgable and entertaining, made sure all of us were happy. Would gladly recommend doing this tour
We enjoyed our trip and our guide was excellent
This tour was amazing!
Tony F United States of ...
Excellent! The guide was very nice and helpful. Even when I was the only tourist instead of cancelling they sent me on a taxi. Really great.
This Was an spectacular day excursion. The guide Javier made the excursion nice and he entertained us with explanations about Sevilla, Jerez de la Frontera and Cadiz.
exellent day trip. the Tio Pepe experience was great and the horse show is one of a kind. the next place Cadiz is beautifull and several restaurants for a great lunch.
overall i would highly recommend this day trip and close to seville you will arrive relaxed and ready for night tapas.
Before we started, we were a bit concerned about the length of the trip. In fact, it was not a problem. The timing at each stop is just right and we really enjoyed the day. The guides were very knowledgeable and horses really do dance!
Great trip...we had Javier as our guide and Ramon as our driver. They were both excellent. Javier gave us tidbits during the ride to Jerez de la Frontera and then once in Cadiz, we had some free time to either grab some lunch or tour the sites on our own. We were prepared with our own notes, we picked up a map and then took in some of the sites...and left enough time to enjoy a well-earned beer before boarding the van. The visit to the Gonzalez-Byass Bodega was very good...alot of info and the guide was very nice and besides giving us the facts, provided us with local tidbits. She was very good. The horse ballet at the Fundacion Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Ecuestre was very nice...shame one cannot take photos or videos. All in all a very nice trip and it made us realize we need to make a separate full-day trip to see Cadiz...it's beautiful, one of the oldest cities in Spain, and there's LOTS to see.
Thank you Javier for an amazing day! Sherry tasting, Andalusian horses, and a lovely tour of the port city of Cadiz. This was a great way to see the beauty of Andalusia!
Well this was the best experience of my stay . Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. The whole day ran smoothly, the horses were beautiful just ap shame we could not take phtograghs, even after the show. Enjoyed the whole day immensely , thank you
The guide was very knowledgable and very personable. Perfect itinerary led by a perfect guide and driver. Especially liked that it was a small bus with only a few fellow travelers.
Marvellous trip. The tour guide was enthusiastic and cheerful.
This was a wonderful full-day trip and we enjoyed every minute of it!! The sherry tasting and tour was great, and being horse people, we were thrilled to watch the equestrian show in Jerez. Everyone on our bus agreed to forgo the boat ride to Cadiz, thankfully, and so we went by bus and had lots of time there for a lunch and sightseeing. We were lucky enough to have the most remarkable young woman for a guide - Melissa, whose bubbly personality and wonderful commentary lasted the whole trip and each and every one of us on the bus hugged her when it was over! She is truly a remarkable person and she made this trip one of the best we had on our trip to Spain.
Nikki Australia
very good! recommended
The oldest city in Europe! 3,000 years old! The horse show was amazing; the wine tasting was fun and interesting. We even saw a barrel that was owned by Robert Wagner.
Great trip, though I think it may be better in reverse with more time in Cadiz.
Our entire day was great! The sherry tour was very interesting and enjoyable. The horse show was beautiful and quite memorable. We stopped for lunch in Santa Maria, and afterwards took a ferry to Cadiz, which was very interesting as well as surprising. Our guide "Tiger" did a great job!
Great! Tio Pepe stop was the best!
Todo las paradas cumplieron con nuestras expectativas y más! La visita a Jeréz y a la Bodega de Domeq fue fantástica y la guia turística en Cadiz fue la mejor!!!
Frank H USA
The tour of the winery was wonderful, even the kids enjoyed it. The equestrian show was magnificent and the boat ride to Cadiz very enjoyable. Cadiz is beautiful. The whole experience was fantastic and well worth the price.
We enjoyed the tour very much. The guide, Antonio, was very knowledgeable and personable and answered questions without hesitation. His English was excellent given that the tour was both in Spanish and English. We enjoyed the tour of Tio Pepe sherry factory we only wish that they would have given us a bit more time to taste the different sherries something like 15 minutes which is no enough. The equestrian exhibition was superb we had never seen Andalucian horses perform before and the riders were masterful. It was like a ballet with horses.
We also enjoyed our time in Cadiz. Since it was a tour, there wasn't much time to explore that city other than allowing us two hours to have lunch in the central square and driving through the city. It made us want to come back to Cadiz for a few days at some point.
All in all, an excellent tour.
We really enjoyed this trip! The luxury minibus arrived punctually and was extremely comfortable. We were impressed with the driver since he drove at a nice, 'gentle' speed. The tour of the Gonzalez Byass Tio Pepe Winery was fascinating thanks to an excellent guide who was a most capable translator in English and French. The 'dancing' horses show is a delight to behold.
One of the slightly negative points was the fact that our tour guide struggled to speak French when our French companion had been told she would have a French translation of the sights we saw. Naturally, she was disappointed about that. We also thought the time spent in Cadiz could have been longer as, by the time we had eaten lunch, there was no time to walk around and see very much.
Overall, though, we would thoroughly recommend this trip!

The teacher gave her fifth grade class an assignment: get their parents to tell them a story with a moral at the end of it. The next day the kids came back and one by one began to tell their stories.
Kathy said, "My father's a farmer and we have a lot of egg-laying hens. One time we were taking our eggs to market in a basket on the front seat of the pickup when we hit a bump in the road and all the eggs went flying and broke and made a mess"
"And what's the moral of the story?" asked the teacher.
"Don't put all your eggs in one basket!"
"Very good," said the teacher. "Now, Lucy?"
"Our family are farmers too. But we raise chickens for the meat market. We had a dozen eggs one time, but when they hatched we only got ten live chicks. And the moral to this story is, don't count your chickens until they're hatched."
"That was a fine story Lucy. Johnny do you have a story to share?"
"Yes, ma'am, my daddy told me this story about my uncle Bob. Uncle Bob was a Navy SEAL in Vietnam and his helicopter got hit. He had to crash land in enemy territory and all he had was a bottle of whiskey, a machine gun and a machete. He drank the whiskey on the way down so it wouldn't break and then he landed right in the middle of 100 enemy troops. He killed seventy of them with the machine gun until he ran out of bullets, then he killed twenty more with the machete till the blade broke and then he killed the last ten with his bare hands and the empty whiskey bottle."
"Good heavens," said the horrified teacher, " What kind of moral did your daddy tell you from that horrible story?"
"Don't f*ck with Uncle Bob when he's been drinking."

It was an awesome tour. I just wish it was a tiny bit longer. The time spent in Murano and Burano went so fast could have easily spent more time in both especially Burano.
Don't be fooled by thinking that you guarantee your place on the boat by booking online. You have to queue with everyone else to collect your tickets and then queue with everyone else who have paid at the ticket office as you get to the gangway down to the boat. Just pay at the ticket office, it is less hassle!
My friends and I loved this tour. It offered a great experience of the three islands in a good amount of time and was very informative. Only downside was the speakers on the boat were a little hard to hear and we had wished for a boat that was more open. But overall a great cheap purchases for a weekend visit. :)
Murano and Burano were great to visit. Torcello was a whole different feel but it was nice to see the not-so-touristy parts of Venice. The glass blowing was my favorite part!
Great price and great trip. Tour guides were very friendly. There was one guy at the ticket booth at the departure point who was not accommodating at all and very unfriendly. Besides that I enjoyed myself alot. The glass blowing demonstration is a must see.
