Moby has long been known nearly as much for his activist stances — sometimes expressed in the liner notes of his hit albums — as those albums themselves. He's an outspoken vegan and animal rights activist, and has even edited a book of essays about the meat industry. Now, as a record-setting drought expands in his state, the California resident has taken an interest in another part of the food system: the way the state's increasingly scarce water supply is allocated to state agribusinesses.
You're partnering with Courage Campaign and Food & Water Watch to push a petition pressing Jerry Brown for a more stringent water budget, particularly through tougher limits on agriculture. Why respond to the drought in that way?
I grew up on the East Coast — in New York and Connecticut — where water was kind of an unlimited resource. Now that I live out in California, I realize water on the West Coast is a really limited, finite resource. It's stating the obvious, but that means it needs to be allocated responsibly. So I was, in kind of a cursory way, looking at where California water is allocated and I read an article saying that 20 percent of California's water goes to residences, and 80 percent goes to agriculture.
On the surface of things, that doesn't seem like it's too egregious. But then you realize that agriculture in California is important, but it only contributes 2 percent of California's gross domestic product. And then you dig even deeper and you realize that most of that water goes to just a few types of agriculture that use water incredibly irresponsibly and that contribute less than 1 percent of California's GDP: alfalfa, beef, almonds, cotton and then some others as well. A pound of beef can take up to 10,000 gallons of water to create, whereas a pound of broccoli takes 90 gallons of water to create. It just didn't make any sense to me that California would subsidize and facilitate irresponsible water use.
You've been outspoken and involved in food issues for a long time, but in the past you've been more focused on meat production. How has the drought influenced the way you think about other components of the food system?
I want to answer this without sounding like a crazy apocalyptic lefty, but basically as a species our approach to resources is to use them as if they'll always be there.
So let's say over the last 200 years we've been on a spending spree with regards to air, water, food, timber, petroleum, etc. We just have gone crazy using all these resources, thinking in the back of our minds that maybe the next generation will be the one to figure things out and deal with the consequences of this resource-spending spree. But now we're coming up against the consequences — and no one wants to admit that there are consequences.
Animal products are just egregiously unsustainable, from a resource perspective. It takes up to 500 pounds of grain to make one pound of beef. And it goes without saying that 500 pounds of grain is food that could be fed directly to people. It just doesn't make sense to funnel food resources through animals. It's a really irresponsible and inefficient way of using food resources.
One of the interesting things we're learning from this drought is how complicated our current system is and all of the unforeseen, difficult-to-trace impacts. There was this whole backlash against almonds, and then a backlash against the backlash, and people who are drought-shaming Californians without recognizing the California water that's inside the food in their refrigerator.
The way water is allocated in California is so complicated and so byzantine. A lot of legislators don't want to deal with it simply because it's complicated. There's a benefit from taking someone like me who can look at things in a more reductionist, simplistic way without being inhibited by the complexity of the situation. Because at it's core, it's really simple. And it's not an academic discussion; we're talking about a finite resource that's going away. And as is oftentimes the case, when people are confronted with a change that may compromise the status quo that they're comfortable with, most people are really resistant to that change.
But change is going to happen whether people are comfortable with it or not. And California, in a very realistic way, could run out of water — unless you take the 50 percent of California's water that's been used for alfalfa, beef, almonds, etc. and reallocate it.
I saw this very first-hand with record companies. In the late Nineties and early 2000s, record companies didn't want to acknowledge the change that was coming. So they all buried their heads in the sand and pretended that iTunes and Napster and downloading were not real, or they were fads and everyone was going to go back to buying CDs. They ignored that change, and the change still happened. And I feel like Governor Brown and the legislature are taking a similar tactic to water that the record companies took to Napster. They want to pretend that things are going to go back to a much easier, simpler status quo. But they're not.
This pattern has been going on for thousands of years. I'm sure all the manual elevator operators in the early Twentieth Century thought automatic elevators were a fad they didn't have to pay attention to. When people who worked in the silent film industry were confronted with talking pictures, they didn't want to acknowledge that the change was coming. But the change happened — and the same thing is happening with much more deleterious, serious consequences regarding water of California.
The legislators all want to stay in office. And a question I want to ask them is, "Who's going to vote for you if on your watch, California runs out of water?" Nothing's going to kill a politician's career faster than being the one who could have done something to preserve California's water and didn't. It's a huge problem, but it's also an opportunity to redress some of these issues: Rebuild the crumbling infrastructure and replace outdated, atavistic legislation about how water is allocated.
Are there other ways that you're pushing on this issue?
Of course every individual can do something. Like, I tore up all my grass and I put down drip irrigation, mulch and more drought-tolerant plants. I have low-flow showerheads and low-flow toilets, but if I ran my shower for a week straight I would still use less water than is involved in creating one pound of beef. Until there's agricultural reform, residential reform is relatively pointless.
What are the specific agricultural reforms you'd like to see?
The California water allocation system is so weird and complicated and outdated that I don't even know half the nuances of it. But the first thing would be ending subsidies to water. If farmers, especially the big agribusiness companies, had to actually pay fair market value for their water, they would stop growing alfalfa, beef and almonds. It's just that simple. Because it wouldn't make sense financially. The only reason it makes sense to grow alfalfa in California is because the water is subsidized.
The second step would be to raise the cost of water across the board. And then suddenly you would see people stop planting grass. I think some of the drought-shaming isn't such a bad thing. Golf courses, grass lawns: they're definitely the low-hanging fruit in terms of things that could be addressed and dealt with to make California more water responsible. But compared to agriculture, everything else is literally just a drop in the bucket.
But so far, agriculture has dodged the state's water restrictions.
Jerry Brown has said that farmers have suffered enough. But it's such a misleading generalization: There's clearly a big difference between the family farm that has 100 acres, as opposed to huge agribusinesses that have millions of acres.
And that's the other kick in the teeth about California's water policy: It benefits big agribusiness that, for the most part, ships their products out of state. So alfalfa, for example, is using 15 or 20 percent of California's water and it's all being shipped overseas. So in subsidizing alfalfa, California taxpayers are basically sending their money and water to China in the form of alfalfa.
You once joked about being in a recovery program for former sanctimonious jerks. There are certainly some people who have negative reactions in general to celebrity activism. I know you've seen that in the past, including some of the responses to liner note essays. How has your thinking changed over the years about the best or most productive way to get messages across?
One is, you sort of have to pick your battles. If you do anything in the public sphere someone is going to criticize you for it. And if there are people criticizing me for being opinionated and trying to improve things, that's really not my concern. I can't let my actions or my sense of self be affected by someone who hates their job in Brooklyn who's typing negative comments on Gawker.
But obviously your goal is for people to really hear and take into account what you're saying; the question is finding a way to speak that people will listen to.
I feel like, ideally, an activist is someone who just keeps doing what they're doing, and if your activism is falling on deaf ears it's either the nature of the activism or the people you're talking to. So then you try and change if you can. But there's also danger in people not saying something because they think they might run the risk of offending someone, or watering down their message to such an extent that it becomes ineffective. I want things to change, but I don't necessarily feel the need to accommodate people who are being critical for the sake of being critical.
Speaking of the need to pick your battles, are there some things that you would like to be more outspoken about, but it hasn't felt worth it?
Oh, almost everything. As humans, the way we're living is stupid, unsustainable and doesn't make anyone happy. So just pick anything: the way we eat, the way we build homes, the way we clean our homes, the way we educate our children. Very few of the things we do as humans actually create benefit for anyone. It would almost be forgivable, the way in which humans are destroying the planet and depleting all these resources, if anyone was actually happy. But it's like the more damage we do, the more miserable we become. Everybody's on antidepressants and anti-anxiety meds and going to therapy and cheating on their spouses and getting divorced and getting plastic surgery, but not necessarily changing the way they live.
In terms of an activist perspective, I try to pick either the things I'm most passionate about, like animal welfare, or the things that do seem the most egregious and most easily addressed, like California's water policy.
What about from an artistic perspective?
I make music. My music doesn't necessarily reflect my activism. There are some people that have been really good at it – I think of Joe Strummer, or Chuck D, or Bob Dylan, or Neil Young. But I've never been very good at writing message-oriented music. I've tried, but it's just not my strong suit.
There are the issues — and some of them are very pressing and need to be dealt with — but there's also the basic question of humans understanding themselves and the world around them. I really believe that if we actually had a better understanding of ourselves, we wouldn't be so... I don't know how to say it politely. We wouldn't be as irresponsible in our use of resources or the way we treat each other.
What are you working on these days musically?
I just finished my last record and am hopefully putting that out in October. I love making records. I don't really expect too many people to buy them or listen to them. I just really like making them.
Will this record have any essays in the liner notes?
Possibly. Although, I don't know how many people will be buying CDs with booklets. There are other, more effective way of talking about the things that are important to me.

I do not ordinarily write book reviews, but I occasionally run across a book to share. Are there any specific elements that need inclusion? Are there any rules?
Sure, email the author and ask him to write his own review, then post it with an Amazon capsule
Check out this site, it gives you a great overview of what to include.
I am sure the links provided here will help. You also have to consider for whom you are writing the review.
Some people on HubPages only use the book as a springboard for a general discussion. They don't write in-depth about the book's merits. Which one are you? There's certainly more than one approach.
If you feel the book isn't great, it's always nice to compare it to others on the same topic, and tell why the others are better books. If you're using Amazon capsules, you could certainly hand-pick the ones you like from the genre.
I'd definitely say, in writing a book review, consider what kind of readers would like the aspects of the book you didn't like. Reference some the things you thought were negative about the book in a neutral light, and you might introduce some readers to a book they wouldn't have previously considered. People like different things. I don't much like Twilight, but fans of Octavia Butler might. See what I mean?
I have written book reviews for print publications. I have taught Journalism.
I would say that you start with the basics as if you were writing a news story. Then simply add your own opinions backed with examples and reasons. End with a summary including whether or not it is worth reading.
The facts, summary of content,evaluation . . . that's basically it in a nutshell.

First video of the Rock-Ola after removing the mech, going thru the entire unit, lubrication, and then being fully reassembled. It's about 80% right now, but fully functional. Intermix works properly; I'll post a video soon for it.
Items attended to:
o No stylus; sourced one from NeedleDaddy on eBay
o Upper fluorescent light not working; replaced starter
o Pulled mech – original lubricants and greases had either hardened or turned to gum; removed all, cleaned, then lubricated with the proper lubricants per the Rock-Ola service manual
o Interior of unit had a brown sticky film on everything [think: fly paper] which surely was from the jukebox residing in bars for decades; removed what components I could and thoroughly cleaned everything
o Wobble plate's read-out wasn't catching all of the switches the write-in [read-in] armature was activating; while the mech was out of the cabinet, I removed the read-out armature and cleaned its contacts plus its switches; did the same for the write-in armature; all is fine now
Items still needing attention:
o Speaker distribution box is bypassed and all wires to and from it were cut; the main R W B wires go from the amp directly to the two full-range 12″ door speakers; the upper speakers aren't connected currently
o Mat is missing from turntable; fashioned my own with .094″ thick rubber pads with adhesive backing from Dollar Tree temporarily; can't find the real mat anywhere – so far only a used turntable with the original mat in so-so condition. I'll keep searching
o Large "R" Rock-Ola crest on the middle of the door isn't lit; per the service manual's schematics, its power came from the door speaker's wiring harness from the speaker distribution unit – which is bypassed. I'll likely just tap into the light near the coin slot that reads "MAKE ANY SELECTION" since it utilizes the identical bulb, and discreetly run wires to the crest on the door
o OEM Shure M44MR cartridge will be swapped out with a Stanton 500V3 from NeedlesForJukeboxes.com, and new wiring from the cartridge to the amp will be installed also as mine goes out when you move that thin cable near the amp
o Will source a new replica turntable center trim piece from jukeboxparts.co.uk
o Will replace the fine but aging 12″ and 5″x7″ speakers with higher-end equipment
o The three tabs that center the record's hole aren't quite wide enough to prevent wow; even though the rubber pads I put on the naked turntable are extremely thin [about the thickness of 5 or 6 sheets of paper], it's just enough height to make the record's hole eccentric to the spindle which induces some wow when playing; the only time any of the 45s seem to fit the 3-tabbed chrome ring completely is when I remove that item from the turntable and seat the 45 all the way to the bottom of the chrome ring – an area not accessible to the 45 when it's properly installed on the turntable, even without my rubber pads. After a few various attempts, I've currently settled on carefully wrapping each chrome tab with 11 revolutions of teflon tape [plumber's tape], which is slick enough to not interfere with the records when being placed and removed, and still allows for the intermix to work properly. I'm going to attempt another fix soon that I've thought of to see how it works. It's more important to me to have a safe landing surface for the records which also dampens motor noise and vibration from the speakers through the chassis, than it is to contend with a minutely eccentric hole which I can remedy via my own methods. Once complete, no one will even notice unless I disassemble the turntable and point it out to them.

To the normal person, this sounds like the terrifying rant of a stalker. To marketers, it sounds like an omni-channel engagement strategy. As technology enables brands to know more and connect more often with their customers, marketers are debating where the line between being relevant and valuable ends and where creepy and intrusive begins. This has never been truer as marketers grapple with developing a comprehensive mobile engagement strategy.

Rihanna is no stranger to strutting about in her underwear, so she was in good company at last night's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, reports The Huffington Post.
With a host of the world's most beautiful women stalking around in their underwear it was always going to be hard to stand out.
But not only is she one of the biggest pop stars in the world, but Rihanna proved on Wednesday night that she also owns the runway.
The 24-year-old beauty strutted herself at the annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show and held her own against their genetically blessed Angels.
Wearing a stunning black corset gown that was cut to the thigh to show off her suspenders, the artist burst onto the runway to sing her new songs, Diamonds and Fresh Off The Runway, reports The Daily Mail.
She paired her scintillating gown with long lace gloves, boots, an ostentatious pearl choker and matching pearl rummed sunglasses.

Scientists studying Scotland's killer whales have made a remarkable discovery.
They have identified a whale which hit the headlines in the 1970s after swimming up the River Foyle in Northern Ireland.
Back then, he was dubbed "Dopey Dick".
Today, he's known as Comet... and is still believed to be alive and well.

Goal Permission Slip
Are you where you want to be in life or career? If the answer is anything other than "Hell Yeah!", then why aren't you doing something about it? Are you waiting for something? I am here to tell you that the perfect time will not come. Only you can determine if you have permission to pursue your passions. If anything, most people will try to prevent you from working harder to achieve your goals and exposing their insecurities in their own life. The permission slip below is just as ridiculous as waiting for someone to approach you and say, "It's ok to do what you want!". Stop waiting on this moment and start by taking action. If you still NEED permission, print out the slip below!
If no one can give you permission, then that means that it is 100% up to you. So if you are not happy where you are, then it is your responsibility alone to make it happen. It is easy to slip back into the waiting game. To avoid this complacency, print out the permission slip above (click here). Post it in multiple places to serve as a reminder that you can take action towards your goals at anytime and no one can hold you back. Try taping your goal permission slips in a few of the following places:
- Refrigerator
- Bathroom mirror
- In your car
- The inside of your notebook
- In your daily planner
- On your laptop keyboard
- In your closet
Take Action Today
If you haven't done anything to work towards your goal before, then you may be scared to start. Do something small to start that is a conscious reminder of your goal on a daily basis. Sign up for a newsletter or blog email mailing list for the subject you are interested in, then read it every morning! Also, print out the Goal Permission Slip above and post around your house and work.

Compared another way, the laser does not leave scars as well as other means. For example, skin erosion techniques, either manually with mutilated or with dermabrasion can cause serious injury, which then can leave scars or keloids.
Similarly, among the tattooist (tattoo artist), the laser is still regarded as the best option for removing a permanent tattoo. One tattoist also recommended laser as the best technique to remove permanent tattoos.
With laser technology to remove permanent tattoos become an effective option for those who want to remove tattoos, such as the famous actress Angelina Jolie, Megan Fox and Eva Longoria, including the thousands of Americans who chose to remove his tattoo.
Jolie chose to write the coordinates of the birthplace of her six children in the former site of the tattoo the name of her former husband. Meanwhile aktir Megan Fox has been removing Marilyn Monroe tattoo on her arm.
In America alone operation to remove tattoos has increased by 440 percent in the last decade. "Most people remove the tattoo at the age of 30-40 years. What looks attractive at the age of 20 was not considered to be equal in their 30s," said plastic surgeon Michael Kulick.

Arbitration Program
This all started 6 months ago in November 2012. I placed an order for an engagement ring from allurez.com. When the order arrived, I called them the very first moment to let them know that there was no diamond certification included with the order when there is supposed to be one since all diamonds are certified. I spoke with a representative name Ralph. He said he will send it to me. I gave it a week or 2 and no certification was sent. I called and spoke with Grace now and she said she was going to send it to me. Therefore I gave it more time and I had to call again in another week.
When I spoke with Grace again, she told me that they sent it to me every time I called, which I found to be a lie after I confirmed it with another rep that I spoke with named Kelly. From my understanding, each diamond only comes with one cert and Kelly confirmed it. How could Grace have sent it 3 times? at this point, it was already a few months in. all the reps stated that they will call me right back or the next day. Most of my attempted contacts with them were not responded to in a timely manner. They never got back to me until i called them a week or 2 later.
After weeks of no response, I wrote to their customer service email, stating that if I don't get a response again that I would contact BBB. Then Kelly called me. The reason I requested for the Cert and pushed for it so hard is because, I didn't believe the diamond quality was really up to the standards that the certification stated and I wanted a 2nd opinion from a local jeweler. Also, without the cert, their website said returns would be charged $300. They strung me along, for months saying that they sent it, they are trying to obtain it, or simply that they will call me back.
Kelly then tried to obtain another cert from the diamond grading lab but to no avail. she gave me the option to send my ring back and to choose another diamond. during the process of which I was selecting diamonds and calling about the certs, the reps were not too responsive. I had to call and follow up all the time. If I called and spoke to a different rep than Kelly, they would brush me off and say Kelly is handling your order and will look into it. Their products were also very misrepresented. Being that this is an online retailer, we had to order the product first then review it ourselves and exchange to our liking.
The diamond quality and the color grading was way off. I compared with Shane Co and Helzberg Diamonds. I took the diamonds that I received from Allurez and put them directly next to a bunch of different diamonds from those 2 other jewelers and all times, the diamonds from allurez came through at way lower quality and color from multiple tests. After reviewing a bunch of items, I asked Kelly what my store credit amount was. She told me it was $1,803, which I have in writing in two different emails from her.
One was just the inquiry, and the other one was on an informal invoice for the new ring. So I budgeted around that amount and made placed my order for a more expensive diamond and ring, which came out to an additional $1,774. I didn't want to spend any more than an additional $1,500-1,800. So this fit my budget. After placing the order, right before it was sent out, someone from allurez named korine sends me an email saying they messed up and gave me a credit of $520 too much and that now I owe that amount before they can send it out.
At this point I was livid dealing with them for 6 months. I wasn't trying to come up on their mistake so that either side loses. I wrote a long email just asking for my money back and that I did not want to do business with them any more. All I wanted was my full refund for any amounts that I spent with them without them sending me the ring since I did not want to spend an additional $520. Then shortly after that, the manager Ralph gave me a call saying that he understood that they made the mistake this late into the process and that they will take the loss and send it to me even though I kept insisting that I just wanted a refund.
I finally just said ok, just send it. Then another problem arises upon receiving this order. The receipt Kelly gave me stated the ring setting was $1390 for the set. She wrote out the set, and the amount , but the item number she wrote was for just the single ring without the wedding band. That item when not included into the set is only $790. I called Ralph and he refused to honor it. Instead of him waiving the $520 for the set, he said he will have to charge me extra. At this very moment instead of him waiving a $520 that was a mistake on their end, they ended up charging me additional $20 for the order.
Keep in mind that I didn't want this product anymore for the price but he convinced me to receive it. I called and complained and asked to speak with someone higher up, but he said he was the highest it goes. I asked if he was the owner and he said yes, which I don't really believe. At this point, I just want to return the item and have them refund me back. Ralph tells me that its not possible because I custom made it. I didn't do anything to the ring besides choose the stone and the setting. He also tells me that it's passed the 30 day return policy, which is also their fault because they never sent me all the contents of my original order for me to be fully satisfied. They strung me along till it was passed the return time.

By Philips Adefioye
The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, has been advised to monitor the Super Eagles players on and off the pitch in order to know their needs and encourage them. Former chairman of the Nigeria Football Association now federation, retired Brigadier-General Dominic Oneya gave this advice in an interview with Saturday Vanguard sports in Lagos.
"The Africa Cup of Nations is already here and the Eagles will face teams like the Pharaohs of Egypt, the Squirrels of Benin Republic and the Black Mambas of Mozambique.
"If the Nigeria Football Federation can monitor these players on and off the pitch to know their problems and needs and try to help them solve them, they will be encouraged to give their best.â€
Oneya said the players need to be together on time for the preparations ahead of the big tasks that will determine Nigeria's performance at the World Cup later in June in South Africa.
He stressed that the Nigerian coaching crew are aware of the huge tasks ahead of them, pointing out that he felt some heat during the draws in Cape Town, South Africa when the Eagles were grouped with Argentina, Greece and South Korea.
"To start with generally, any team that qualified for the World Cup have the right to prepare well. What we need is solid preparation and the coaches should know the onerous task ahead of them. I felt the heat of what is going to happen in South Africa,†he said.
Continuing General Oneya said, "African teams did not have good draws, I must say, but we can term it as a fair draw. It is a big challenge however. What we need as Africans is for our players to have discipline and they should not do anything out of the rule or law of the camp, because most of these players, go to clubs and do all sort of things.
If they have discipline and play to instructions, and their Federations help them, and use the fund that FIFA has given to them very well, you will see their best during the World Cupâ€.
Oneya emphasised that one of the way out for the Super Eagles was to make sure they not lose their first match against two-time world champions, Argentina and find a way out to the second round.

Tony Robbins is out to right some wrongs in the financial services industry and you'd be wise to pay attention.
I wrote my thoughts on what his arrival means to our industry and it was just published by Investment News.
One of the recommendations I made in the article was to actually read what he has written and listen to what he has to say.
I've read his books—including all 616 pages of his new one—plus listened to many of his talks and interviews over the years.
Like him or loathe him, he shares some really good ideas and strategies.
Here's what I recommend you do.
1. Read his newest book, MONEY Master the Game: 7 Keys to Financial Freedom. You can get the book here.
2. Read my full article at Investment News and add your comments to it.
3. Absorb some of his work. Read and listen to what he says, apply discernment to it, and see what you can learn. Here are few places to start.
a. Interview by Tim Ferriss
b. Interview by Joe Polish and Dean Jackson
c. Interview by James Altucher
d. Glowing profile in Fortune

PARIS: Eight people have been injured in a shooting outside a mosque in southern France, officials have confirmed.
Worshippers leaving the Arrahma mosque in Avignon were approached by two hooded suspects at about 22:30 local time (21:30 GMT) on Sunday.
The suspects, carrying a handgun and a shotgun, arrived in a Renault Clio before opening fire on the crowd, La Provence newspaper reports.
Police said they were not treating the incident as a terrorist attack.
Four people were wounded outside the mosque and a family of four - including a seven-year-old girl - also suffered injuries from shrapnel while in their apartment, located some 50 metres away, La Provence said, citing a source.
Two of the eight wounded were hospitalised, according to the source, who also said that worshippers leaving the mosque had not been the intended target.
An eyewitness interviewed at the scene said that dozens of people near the mosque started to run when they saw the two suspects exit the vehicle and approach them with firearms.
"It was a black Renault car," the witness said, adding: "There were four individuals, only two of them, who were seated in the back, stepped out and started shooting at everyone."

Pop-up Weta pub dispenses Garage Project winner
A pop-up pub created by Weta Workshop helped set the tone for this weekend's Beervana brewing festival, as Aro Valley's Garage Project launched its winning brew from the World Beer Cup.
Weta transformed the Wellington boutique brewery's packaging hall into the Brewing Corps Officers' Mess Hall last night.
It created a pop-up pub stocked with a full complement of Dr Grordbort-themed beers on tap, including a Venusian Pale Ale (VPA) to rival the more prosaic IPAs found on Earth.
Dr Grordbort's is a steampunk- style fantasy universe created by Weta Workshop concept designer Greg Broadmore. The brewery formed a close bond with Weta after making a bespoke brew for its Christmas party a few years ago.
In April, the brewery's Cockswain's Courage Double Barrelled Edition picked up a silver medal in the World Beer Cup's wood and barrel-aged strong beer class - one of the most contested classes in this year's contest.
Garage Project owner Jos Ruffell said the event was the "Olympics of brewing", and the award was the only one awarded to an independent Kiwi brewery.
Last night's launch was the final time the brew was available to be sampled on tap.
A limited edition of 49 750ml bottles was selling for $80, while 30 coveted bottles featuring a Weta- designed sculpted bottle cap were retailing for well over $100 each.
Ruffell said the leadup to Beervana was always an exciting time, especially for the many Australians who had made a trip across the ditch for the occasion.
"Aussies love New Zealand beer, it's got a great reputation over there. We can't send enough beer over."
Beervana runs this weekend at Westpac Stadium featuring Wellington breweries Tuatara, Funk Estate, Panhead, Parrotdog, Yeastie Boys and Black Dog.

A focus group gathered in Atana village to discuss feedback and inputs on the radio drama script that IWTC helped put together.
Grantee name: The International Women's Tribune Centre (IWTC)
Mission: The International Women's Tribune Centre (IWTC) supports "the participation of women from the Global South in re-defining and realizing development processes that are just, equitable, peaceful and inclusive of all peoples."
IWTC uses information, education and communication as its primary tools to leverage change and works with partner organizations to move global policies from the international to the national and local levels. It also ensures that critical issues identified at the local and national levels are voiced and made visible in the global arena. IWTC brings to this work its recognized ability to translate policy into popular and user-friendly materials and its work with national, regional and international information and media networks to ensure rapid transmission of information to the broadest possible audience. Skill-building and advocacy tools, coalitions and campaigns, information resources and strategic interventions are key ingredients of IWTC's work to link local action to global policy issues and advocacy.
IWTC is currently engaged in on-the-ground activities with partner organizations in selected conflict and post-conflict countries in Africa and Asia including Liberia, Sierra Leone, Uganda, the Philippines and Timor Leste. It also collaborates with local media and national and community-based organizations in Angola, Burundi, Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, South Africa in raising awareness of and promoting national accountability to Resolution 1325 and the more recently adopted Security Resolution 1820 on sexual violence in conflict-affected areas.
Location: New York, NY, USA
Website: www.iwtc.org
Initial recordings of IWTC's radio drama at Radio Apac in Northern Uganda.
Channel Grant: Channel made a grant to the International Women's Tribune Centre for the purposes of supporting the training of women's organizations in Northern Uganda to create and complete a radio drama series about Security Council Resolutions 1325 and 1820 and how they can be used to address sexual violence and help build peace in the region. Channel support helped IWTC to complete the production of the 12-part radio series in English and Luo and to provide additional skill building support to participating women's organizations to help build their capacity in using the media for advocacy and for promoting accountability and action.

If you don't trust your equipment, you've got little chance of winning a race. No one would know that better than Ricky Johnson and here he appears to be testing the sidewall strength on a set of BFGoodrich trophy truck tires.
Brandon Arthur is the driver of the #56 Trophy Truck and the #6 Pro-Lite truck, and apparently he also happens to be a capable dune jumper. Check out this huge huck from a recent trip to Glamis.
It's one thing to smash the gas pedal, hold it wide open and hope for the best. But there's an art to making the transition as clean and smooth as possible as this Toyota pre-runner does. Watch and learn folks.
For the most part, Trophy Trucks are synonymous with high speeds and deep whoops. You usually don't picture them on tight, technical motocross-style tracks. However, the minds behind the Dirt Tour and 212 Land put on one heck of an event where they blended Trophy Trucks and a motocross track. By the looks of things, the truck drivers were right at home.

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Albertsons Los Angeles. The opinions and text are all mine.
Today I extremely excited to be teaming up with my local Albertsons grocery store to bring you a healthy, nutritious, and easy recipe using one of my favorite dinner secret weapons - canned goods. Not only do canned goods save you money (they are normally 15-20% less expensive than fresh), they are are a great way to save time and get a healthy and nutritious meal on the table without lots of prep work, chopping, or time at the stove. Plus you probably already have what you need on hand at home, meaning you can throw this dinner together without a last minute trip to the grocery store.
On busy nights, one of my favorite ways to use canned goods is in a simple veggie burger packed with two types of beans, corn, and some fresh chopped vegetable. Using canned black beans, refried beans, and corn paired with fresh red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, oats, lime juice, and some spices (things I almost always have at home), these Black Bean Lime Burgers make the perfect quick lunch or dinner. They only take 20 minutes to make from start to finish and are packed with fiber and good for you ingredients. Plus you can make up a big batch since they make great leftovers and freeze well.
Ready to try more delicious recipes using products in your Cantry, head over to Cans Get You Cooking and check out all the yummy recipes you can make at home using canned goods.

Could you please provide with a hub that answers these questions: What is a climbing website? How do you build one? how much time do you estimate it would take to build one? what tools or resources would you need to do all this?
sort by best latest
From what I found, a climbing website is a website about rock climbing, rope climbing, building indoor climbing walls. It is not a type of website such as a static or dynamic website.
You can help the HubPages community highlight top quality content by ranking this answer up or down.

Volume VIIIFrom the Ashes a Fire Shall be WokenBy Dolores J. Nurss
Chapter 4, Part 249Brown TwilightJanuary 6, 1453
The morning light looked brassy, harsh. Then, as Arien rose above the smoke, the day actually darkened somewhat into a brown twilight that lasted all day long, the sun appearing as naught but a dim red moon in the dirty sky, casting eerie, blue-green shadows, and all of the colors, of face and clothing, stone and wood, seemed subtly wrong. Meanwhile everyones lungs longed and longed for fresh air, yet had nowhere to turn for it, and would not, doubtless, for days. Frodo sat just outside the dwarvish hut and wondered if the Pall of Mordor, during the Siege of Minas Tirith, had looked and felt like this. He felt a sudden stir of sympathy for Denethor; such strange and gloomy weather did not incline the heart to hope.
Most of the ents had not yet left to seek their wives, but stomped about the ruin, finding and extinguishing caches of hot coals here and there, or helping dead trees, still smoldering upright, to fall somewhere safe, that they might put out the last of their fires. Frodo could hear the sizzle when the Shepherds of the Trees scooped up great armfuls of the patchy snow to dump on embers. He could hear the crackle of little fires still persisting, scattered throughout the countryside, a sound that seemed to try and imitate a rustling of life.
Hope! What could Denethor have held onto, after losing one son and believing that the other could not survive? What could the future matter, with no blood of his to occupy it? Thats selfish thinking, Frodo told himself. Papa never thought hed live through the destruction of the Ring, never have a chance for children, nothingbut he wanted some future for everybody else. Selfish thinking, maybe, but at least now he understood a little better. And maybe Papa could only dismiss the future of his line because he had not yet held a child of his own in his arms, not yet gazed into those enormous eyes and recognized a part of himself. To have and to losethat changed everything.
After awhile riders out of Rohan arrived, armed with shovels and buckets and all else that they could muster to fight the last of the forest-fire, having seen the smoke and fearing its spread to their grasslands beyond. Side by side with terrifying ents they labored, for in time of war or time of peace, Rohan did not raise cowards. Frodo heard them at work, near and far, at points all around him, all of the shoveling and stamping, the shouts and the crashing wrecks of trees, yet he himself did nothing, sitting just outside the door of the dwarves stone hut.
One must resist selfishness, Frodo told himself, or burn with Denethor in hopelessness. Wife, he called into the doorway. How fare you?
Silence answered him at first, then Matties faint voice. I held him within, you know.
Yes. I know.
Our hearts beat together. For months and months, and I didnt even know. Yet I felt something. I made all of those journeys looking for you, yet I never felt alone. I always felt like I had a part of you inside me, crying out for you, helping me to someday find you. I didnt understand. I didnt bother to try, because it didnt seem to matter, to question how it worked, it just did. I just knew that you left something with me, something blended of you and me. I thought it was our marriage.
At least we still have that.
After awhile, he heard a splashing sound. He peered in, and saw Mattie washing the body for the funeral, tears dripping off her chin yet her face stony-grim. Frodo saw that without realizing it, she took care to hold the lifeless head above the water in the basin.
Eventually a leech assigned to the eored came by, asking many questions. He stooped into the dwarf-hut, first to examine Mattie, then the little corpse, then finally he called Frodo in to examine him as well, listening to the hobbits chest, probing his belly, performing all of the necessary indignities required of his profession. Frodo didnt care. Rest, the man said. Drink plenty of liquids, especially a tea from the tips of the spruce... and then he faltered, looking out the window. Just rest, he said. After he left Frodo went back out and sat by the door some more.
Men dug a grave so tiny that it might have served for a pet. Frodo watched them at it, not moving from his seat. He watched dwarves nearby chisel a stone to mark the spot. When they finished he finally got up and went over to read it. Here lies Harding Gardner, son of Frodo and Matthilda. Born 1453. Died 1453. He nodded, and the dwarves wrestled the stone between them over to the hole in the ground.
Mattie should have lain abed, yet when Frodo turned around he saw that she stood nearby, staring at the grave without a word, her arms crossed, teetering just a little in her weariness whenever shed shift her weight. She might have been her old self, masculinely garbed in clothes that the dwarves had spared for her, their bagginess making her look even thinner than she had become. Her face looked just as waxen as it had a year before. Longer curls fluttered from the hood on the winter windthat much had changed. Other than that...Frodo noted that grief can make a persons pupils contract in pain, and much crying can puff up the eyes as much as poppy-gum.
Where is my harp? she husked. Ill need to sing a dirge.
Gone, he answered. Broken.
She nodded, not surprised.
The men brought back the parts, though. Frodo dug into a pocket of his borrowed clothes. Here. The pegs, from Stumblehoof. You can give them to Lanethil when you ask him to make you a new harp.
Then she turned her head and gave him the queerest look, before gazing back into the grave. He put the pegs back in his pocket.
Legolas came up beside them. You will have other children, he told them in a helpful voice. Mortals are prolific; we envy that in you, sometimes. Frodo just turned and stared at him. I am sorryhave I offended again?
You have no idea, Frodo rasped, what you are talking about. He turned away. How could you? Do elves ever even lose children?
Only to violence, or extremity in the wild, Legolas conceded, And that so rarely as to figure in our legends.
There cannot be another Harding, not among my sons. It would burden a child too much, you see, to have a dead brother for a namesake. No, by Shire custom we must wait. The firstborn grandson must take that name, if ever I have one.
Gimli brought out the tiny body, wrapped up in his own woolen scarf. Frodo stepped forward, a jerky reflex. Suddenly Mattie turned wide, crazed eyes to Frodo and cried, Dont you dare add anything of Harding to your horrid necklace! Not hair, not bone, not toothlet me bury all of him, what little there is of him, intact.
What? Wife, I...I wouldnt! He stood there as she burst into tears and flung herself on him, pounding his chest weakly with her fists, then hugging him, hugging him like shed squeeze the breath from him. He felt twin wet spots, from breasts that had no one to suckle them.
I need you, she whispered into his chest, clinging to him tight. Oh Frodo, how much I need you!
Thats all right, he murmured to her, I need you, too. He wrapped her in his embrace, and even when she drew back again he kept one arm about her (much smaller) waist.
Gimli handed the body to Frodo, and Frodo gently lowered it down by the ends of the scarf. It bothered him that Harding had landed in a way that bent his head to one side. He started to climb down, but Gimli held him back. Easy, lad, the dwarf said. Harding cannot feel a crick in his neck. Leave it be.
He looked to his wife. Mattie nodded to him, then turned again to the grave. She sang, in a tear-hoarse voice, without any instrument to accompany her:
Here lies hope, and here lies future,
Here lies might-have-been.
Here lies a wound no leech can suture,
Here lies end before begin.
Here lies all the reason for,
And all the reason not,
And all the seasons once in store
For all that I once sought.
Here lies music left unsung,
A bud that never bloomed,
A harp unplayed too soon unstrung,
This life too soon entombed.
And now my years seem long indeed,
And time drags empty on;
At least from weariness youre freed,
My too-soon-absent son.
At least you need not ever feel
The grind of lonely hours,
Of going on without appeal
To cold, unyielding powers.
So sail on, son, to distant shores
Where none shall ever mourn,
While I hang back to lock the doors
To futures never born.
Gimli muttered, Methinks I mislike this song.
But Mattie caught the words and replied, You are not the one who had to sing it. Then she bent, and took a handful of dirt, and released it onto the scarf below. And Frodo stepped forward, and took up his own handful of dirt, and dropped it, watching the earth fall down, down down...
...and then he woke up on the ground, hoping with all the desperation in him that he had dreamed it all, he would rather even open his eyes to the darkness in the mines of Squatting Rock. Yet he knew better. Brown sky stretched above him, and he could still smell smoke upon the air. When he turned his head he could see the new-turned earth.
Both of them fainted at the same time, a dwarf explained to the eored medic who knelt between Frodo and Mattie.
It does not surprise me, said the leech, for grave illness beset them ere they arrived. I marvel that they stood at all. We must take them to Edoras. He gazed at each of them in turn. The mother, at least, must receive better care than I can give her here, and both look far too drawn. He rose to his feet. Gather their things together. We must ride swiftly.
Frodo let himself be carried, as he had for days, like an infant himself, or maybe not even that, maybe something limp and empty and without life, a doll with the stuffing knocked out of it, for he felt no particular desire to will his limbs to any action, anyway. A blanket wrapped him, nestled in a riders arms, and somewhere another rider bore his wife. Right now he appreciated what he had resented on other occasions: that men so often mistook a full-grown hobbit for a child, without even realizing what they did. Sometimes he did not want adulthood anymore. Yet responsibility would not let him be. He stirred uneasily when the horse began to move. The flower-press...
We have everything with us that you carried in your pack, little master. Rest, now. And so a fatigue greater than responsibility, of illness and grief and a sleepless night combined, overtook Frodo.
Hours passed, of ash-blown wind and dim brown light, and silence, so much silence, even the hooves of the horses muffled in the thick gray drifts. After awhile the hoofbeats changed to something more familiar, as their steeds sped across living lands, sending up an aroma of bruised winter earth and frosted grass. Yet the smoke remained with them, leagues and leagues beyond the ruined forests. Frodo later heard that it reached as far as the Southfarthing, and Longbottom saw a scattered snow of ash.
Sometimes his horse would draw alongside Matties, and theyd glance beyond the arms that held them, their eyes sometimes meeting. Once he heard a brief, fey laugh, and realized that it came from her. His hair stood on end. But it did not really sound, after all, like her giggles in her poppy-days, for it ended in a choke of tears.
They switched horses often on the way, for their beasts labored in the smoke. Meals came and went; Frodo watched his body eat, from some fleshly instinct, yet he tasted nothing except ash. On these breaks he would sit beside his wife. Sometimes their hands would meet, sometimes their knees, sometimes they would not touch at all, yet could feel each others presence nearby. That much, at least, felt real, certainly realer than the food or the journey or any other thing.
At last they reached Edoras by nightfall. No bustle of city life overtook them this time, for folks had stayed indoors all day long, to avoid the murky air as much as possible. Not much light spilled into the streets, just faint lines of gold illuminated the edges of closed shutters. Pale drifts of ash scuttled down the cobbles on the wind. No moon nor star could penetrate the gloom.
And all the while, throughout the journey, Frodo thought, The thread...just one slim thread...the thread...
