The best

perfect for all the soccer games of nephews I have to take care of ...
Chair + views +coffee= heaven
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Here's a cool pic of my chair in action camping up in Silver Reef outside of St. George (Blue chair on the left) . This chair + this view + a big cup of coffee= heaven. It;s science.
Comfy campsite chillin' chair
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Woah that was a lot of "C's" in the title. But definitely all true! I just got this chair and brought it car camping and while it is a little bit big to travel with, is definitely my new camping staple! The chair is pretty low to the ground and the arm rests with one cup holder and then the other side with the little cool are PERFECT. Haven't used the little cooler armrest yet to keep things cold but it works to hold snacks just as well. All the specs are in the review below which I got directly from the ALPS mountaineering website. My only issue is that the chair is kind of big and heavy when folded up but its easy to just throw in the back of the car and head outside! Overall I really like it and would recommend.
The name couldn't be more fitting... If you like relaxing on the beach, listening to the waves roll in, the Getaway will be the perfect chair to escape to. If it's a hot summer day, the Mesh fabric will provide maximum air flow and there is an arm cooler attached to keep your beverages cold. To make transporting as easy and convenient as possible, there are two straps on the included carry bag, so you can wear it like a backpack and keep your hands free for other things you may want to carry.

Killer Chair
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
While I love the earth and the ground it's really nice to kick back and relax in this chair! Perfect for car camping or hanging out at a bbq. The low stance puts no pressure on the legs so you can really get comfy. Love this chair!
Great Chair
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
I purchased this chair as a gift and it is perfect. Comfortable and lower sitting style that is great for the campfire, beach, or show. A great chair for any use.
Great Beach Chair
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Sits low, holds a few beers in the cooler pocket and the backpack style straps on the bag make it easy to carry.
Pure laziness
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Camp chairs are the best to have around!
- The are great porch seats.
-This one does sit pretty low to the ground so be careful that you don't just plop down in it.
-The cup holder is a must have!
-The beer cooler! whaaaaa, this is why its great for lazy people who don't want to go to their cooler to grab another beer.
-Also, instead of using it as a cooler my friend used it and said they put their little bit of trash in it.
-Great buy, would be a great affordable gift too.
Great Lounge Chair
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Sits low to the ground and lets you lounge. The cooler pocket is a great feature!
Camp Must
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Great camp chair for car camping and sporting events.
Packs away easily, very comfortable and holds lots of drinks!
Sit back and enjoy a cold one...
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Although a little heavy to lug on a hike or backpacking trip, this Getaway Chair is ideal for summer leisure time and car camping. It is impressively comfortable, easy to assemble and the mesh is breathable for those long days in the sun. The chair does dip pretty low so if you have bad knees or weak legs I would recommend considering other options. And like every other reviewer, I agree that the best feature is the insulated beverage cooler that easily holds up to 4 ice colds brews for after your hike or bike ride. Remember to get a 2nd chair for your lady (or man)!
Picture below was taken on Antelope Island outside of SLC, Utah.
it holds 4 beers in the arm cooler!!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
these are perfect for sitting around the campfire. they are low, mesh so you don't overheat and they hold 4 beers in the built in arm cooler! It just doesn't get better than that!
Killer lounger
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
More comfortable that the standard folding chair. It doesn't dig into your legs at the edge of the chair where the webbing connects the the front legs. The pictures don't quite show it, but this chair sits pretty low with a sloped back. The insulated pocket is pretty cool also.
I picked up this chair about 1.5 yrs ago
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Got it on a daily deal for 30 bucks. Have to say in the realm of comfortable (for my 5' 6" frame) its amazing. The full mesh seat bucket allows an incredible amount of air to reach the body. Its low set, slightly reclined, seating position is perfect.
I've not had any issues with campfire heat causing problems with the materials. Not sure how close the other reviewer was sitting to the heat, but at 3~ feet I've had no issues.
The chair is a little heavy and long when collapsed. Definitely wont fit in a water tight bulkhead of a kayak, doesn't fit my Necky Manitou 146r.
Overall chair is durable, very easy to clean (mesh) and still looks great after a year and half of use. Simply put, I love this chair.
Secrets revealed!
After answering the same question three times I thought it would be easier to post a link as a review.
Amazingly complete specs of this chair can be found here. Includes dimensions, weight, features, etc. Quite nice detail actually!
Good and Bad...
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Sits well. Don't get to close to the campfire, melts quickly. The 2 can cool bag on the armrest makes closing and getting into the bag difficult.
Great camp chair
It sits a little lower to the ground which to me is more comfortable. Nice mesh backing to keep airflow to your back which is important in Southern California. So far it is holding up great. Although my wife and i don't weigh 300 lbs, our kids like to jump on our laps and it has held up to it. Cup holder is great, although I wish it would be big enough to hold a nalgene. Cups and cans fit just fine though. I like the little cooler deal on the other arm, keeps my drinks cool and close.
All in all, nice chair, sturdy and comfortable.
When the chair is set up and you are sitting in it, about how high off the ground are you? (In inches or feet)
Comfy, but design issues
Yep, the chairs are very comfy and lightweight. Even the insulated pocket (which we thought was corny at first) came in handy on a hot Main Salmon river trip.
BUT... there are 2 serious flaws:
#1 - Once we used these chairs in a sandy environment, it was next to impossible to get them to fold back up. We tried cleaning them, lubing them with silicone. Nope. Seriously spent about 1/2 hour one morning trying to figure out the problem. And this was with both chairs that we purchased. In the process of trying to push them closed, the screws at the bottom of the legs that go into the rubber feet just popped right out.
#2 - The carry bag is too small and just makes you spend more time trying to pack these chairs up and once you manage to get it into the bag, it looks like some of the frame is going to pop right through the material.
Waiting for the updated design to come out and maybe we'll consider purchasing them again. We returned the 2 we bought.
Very helpful. Mine would mostly be used on sandy beaches where I canoe camp, which rules this chair out.
Great comfy chair
Took this chair on a camping chair and absolutely loved it. At first I was skeptical because it is low to the ground and I have long legs. But the way the chair leans back made it perfect for me. Most of the time I found that my friends who had normal straight back chairs were trying to steal mine!
Waiting for my chairs to arrive. It sounds like a great chair and sturdy too!
Review Title
A haiku for the chair:
Black chair waits
tired hikers return
soothing chair comfort
feet in creek
ahhhhh :)
(I really really like this chair a lot. It's low to the ground, which is good, because I'm kind of short. It's angles are very comfortable, and it doesn't dig in to the backs of my thighs like other camp chairs sometimes do)
Does anyone know the weight of this chair?...
Does anyone know the weight of this chair? I like the dimensions and structure but weight would be a slight concern for me when kayaking and canoeing on weekend trips on shallow Missouri rivers.
Heavy. Alps says it weighs 7.5 pounds.
What is the height of the chair?
What is the height of the chair?
Hey Mary,
Lexi just answered this question just below. "12 inches in the front of the seat and 10" in the back. "
Here are all the specs:
What is the height of the seat?
What is the height of the seat?
Hey Phip, thank you for your question!
The seat height is 12 inches in the front and 10 inches on the back of this model.
Here are all the specs again:
What is the height of the chair when...
What is the height of the chair when collapsed? Fit in standard large suitcase?
It's 32" tall when fully folded, so it's unlikely to fit in a suitcase.
Bummer! Thank you. :) R
Hard to tell from the pictures - does this...
Hard to tell from the pictures - does this chair have 2 armrests?
It does.
Yes, two armrests, one has a cup holder, the other has a little cooler to keep about 2 cans cold
Are you going to get the Black Mesh version...
Are you going to get the Black Mesh version back in stock at any point in the near future?
No, non are on order at this time. It could be a while.
I hope this makes sense... See the point...
I hope this makes sense...
See the point where the arm rests meets the vertical post in the back. That section that holds the arm rest at a specific angle. My question is, does the arm rest slip down this easily. I don't like it when this happens, I like to set the arm rest where I have it and it stay there. It drives me nuts when they slip down and the arm rest is useless.
thanks for any help.
Understandable and it makes sense. The arm rest is supported, sits on top of a stopper and a pole. The only thing you'll have to do is well... sit there. Go Bulldogs!
This sounds strange, but I need to know...
This sounds strange, but I need to know if you can roll a basketball under this chair? I want to use this for a festival, but they do not allow higher chairs that you can "roll a basketball under".
it would be really hard to do that with the strut set up but without that i think its tall enough to do that.

It is quite a challenge managing time when you are a small business owner or manager. The fact is, you wear a lot of hats. You do not have a 9 to 5 day where you do a set amount of work and then go home.
Mastering time management skills is the most important thing you can do for yourself and your company. Setting priorities, and allocating the correct amount of time for each responsibility for you and your staff is difficult, but the payoff is worth the trouble. (more…)

DIY washable glittered glassware
December 13, 2012 · Posted under baby & bridal showers, Christmas, DIY holiday decor, New Year's Eve, party decor, winter wonderland
Break out the glitter! This is one of the coolest tricks I've seen – how to add glitter and then make it washable! Katherine of Inspire, Design, & Create made these super festive "dipped" wine glasses and added two coats of clear sealant to make them hand-washable. So, now you can create glittered glassware that can be washed and re-used, like these fabulous wine glasses.
I love the multi-colored glasses for Christmas, and the silver and black glasses for New Year's, but this is a great idea for just about every holiday or event. Any birthday party, baby shower, bridal shower (or, you know, any ol' Thursday) can use a little glitter, right? ; )
Hop over to Inspire, Design, & Create for more information on this project!

These are great! I love them in all the different colors. It's so festive like that!- 1.2Sunday, March 24th, 2013 at 2:43 am
Do you try this/ were they really washable.

Hi, I was making the wine glasses you posted on here with the glitter on the bottom and I used the lacquer you posted and when I sprayed them it turned them white and they have been drying for about an hour. Will it go back to the color of the sparkle after a day or so? I did everything you said and I'm not sure what I did wrong - 3Tuesday, October 29th, 2013 at 1:07 pm
I loved the look of these glittered glasses so I tried to make my own. I applied the glitter to the topside of the glass and they were just gorgeous. However, when I sprayed them with the polyurethane it made them dull. When you flipped the glass over to see the bottom it was still beautiful because it was protected by the glass. The lesson learned was this: Apply your glitter and your polyurethane to the underside of the glasses that way the top side of the glass and will remain shiny and brilliant while the underside will still be protected ;)

The Burbot is a slender-shaped, smooth-skinned fish with a single, large barbel in the middle of its chin. Dorsal fin is divided, with the first dorsal lobe short containing 8 to 16 soft rays. The second lobe is low, long, and has 61 to 81 rays. The anal fin is nearly as long as the second dorsal and has 52 to 76 fin rays. The pelvic fins with 5 to 8 rays are inserted slightly ahead of the pectoral fins. Scales are present, but are so small that they are nearly invisible--except on large adults. The back and sides of the fish are dark olive or brown with dark mottlings, and the belly is white or pale yellow. Fins are similar in color to adjacent body parts. Although it can reach lengths of over 30 inches and weigh over 12 pounds, most fish in Iowa are considerably smaller.
The burbot is an uncommon but widespread inhabitant of the Great Border rivers. It is also an occasional visitor in other large rivers and sometimes enters the small coldwater tributaries. It prefers areas with aquatic vegetation, rock piles, submerged logs, and various other underwater structures. It is listed on the state's threatened species list (571 IAC 77.2(2) (2015)).
fish, crayfish
Not allowed for threatened or endangered species
Burbot, also know as eelpout, are celebrated annually at a huge ice fishing festival held at Walker, Minnesota on Leech Lake. In Iowa, it is illegal to fish for, take or possess threatened or endangered species, including the Burbot.
The Burbot is an uncommon inhabitant of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers. It has been collected predominantly in northeast Iowa. The Burbot has also been documented in Turkey and Yellow rivers as well as many small coldwater creeks. It is listed on the state's threatened species list (571 IAC 77.2(2) (2015)).
The Burbot is usually found in deep, cold waters of lakes but may also be in the mainstream of large rivers or smaller coldwater tributaries. It is secretive, hiding about piles of rocks, submerged logs, undermined bridge supports and beds of aquatic vegetation during the daylight hours. Before 1950, it was found in the deep, cold waters of Lake Erie, moving into shallower water near tributary outflows in winter, though it has since declined in abundance. Juveniles are often found along rocky shorelines and in the mouths of tributaries. In Minnesota and Wisconsin, the Burbot is common in large northern lakes and rivers.
The Burbot spawns in mid-winter or in early spring before the ice melts. Spawning usually takes place at night with the eggs scattered over a sand or gravel bottom. Incubation lasts 4 to 8 weeks, dependent on water temperature. No care is given to the fry young. The Burbot is a rather reclusive fish, hiding about underwater structure during the daytime and foraging actively at night over the stream bottom. Burbots eat mainly mayfly nymphs and other insects while young. The adults shift to a diet of fish and crayfish.
Burbot caught by anglers are such a rare occurrence that they usually generate curiosity by observers and fishermen alike, mostly because of their unusual physical appearance. There seems to be a wide variance of opinion concerning their edibility. Some northern states have attempted to encourage commercial use of burbot but have met with little success. In one location the Burbot, also known as an eelpout, is the focus of a mid-winter festival and fishing derby.
These fish have minimal importance to anglers. It is viewed as endangered according to the Iowa Wildlife Action Plan, and it is on the endangered species list in Iowa (571 IAC 77.2(2) (2015)).
Recent stream sampling information is available from Iowa DNR's biological monitoring and assessment program.

I have to disagree with the main criticisms from the linked article. The blogger seems to have either missed the purpose of the study or forgotten that experiments tend to be most effective when they test only one variable.
Placebos, when administered, are portrayed as useful and effective. However, hiding the identity of the placebo, representing it as something with medicinal value, is thought to be unethical. The researchers wanted to find out if placebos could still be effective if subjects knew that that was what they were receiving. Had the researchers not made the subjects aware that placebos had been shown to be effective in clinical studies, the subjects would have no expectation for the placebo to work. That would have been a second variable and could have raised an unnecessary question that would cloud the conclusion. If there was no difference between the two groups, would it have been because there were no expectations or because the subjects were aware that the treatment was placebo? As performed, the experiment avoided the results being clouded by such a question. They eliminated the unethical deceit without eliminating the expectation, which is exactly what they set out to do.
I ABSOLUTELY disagree with your conclusions. This is in no way a good study to suggest replacing the "deceit" used for placebos with the methods used in this study. There is no comparison of the effectiveness of the "open placebo" to a blind placebo. Without a test of significance comparing those 2, there is no reason to conclude that this is a sufficient replacement for a typical placebo. If it turns out that the "open placebo" is only half as effective as the typical placebo method, then the standard for drug effectiveness is also affected. It would also need to be tested in multiple instances with differing conditions to safely conclude that it can be applied to other circumstances as well.
Also, the first comment in his link is worth reading. At best, I'd say it's a start for researching the area and maybe enough to warrant a couple of follow up studies. The way things are worded still makes it sound like they have to convince the participants that taking the pills is somehow directly responsible for improvements, which isn't exactly accurate. Even after mentioning that they are inert, it kind of makes it sound like this is some recognized treatment and they even go as far as to mention that it has been shown to make improvements for IBS specifically.
Some other problems to consider:
- Will there be differences in conditions in which participants are aware of an actual drug treatment being available?
- Will participants drop out of a study upon being informed of being in a non-treatment group?
- Will you have more issues with participants keeping up with the schedule?
- Will you have more issues with attrition?
- Are the expectations of the placebo participants still the same? Or does it result in other effects?
And I still really have issues with describing this study as showing that there is a placebo effect without deception. I'd like to have seen a follow up question asking about their understanding of the placebo they were taking. I still get the feeling that they had to distort the understanding of a placebo in order to have the participants form enough of an expectation to get the results found in the study.

text: CN Reports 3Q Net Income of C$705 Million, Up From C$664 Million in 3Q 2012Date Posted: October 24, 2013 Montreal—CN (TSX: CNR) (NYSE: CNI) today reported its financial and operating results for the third quarter and nine-month period ended Sept. 30, 2013. Third-quarter 2013 highlights • Third-quarter 2013 net income was C$705 million, or C$1.67 per diluted share, compared with net income of C$664 million, or C$1.52 per diluted share, for third-quarter 2012. The third-quarter 2013 results included a C$19 million (C$0.05 per diluted share) expense resulting from a one-time deferred income tax adjustment. • Excluding the income tax expense, Q3-2013 adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) increased 13 per cent to C$1.72 from Q3-2012 diluted EPS of C$1.52. (1) • Revenues for the latest quarter increased eight per cent to a quarterly record of C$2,698 million, driven by a four per cent increase in revenue ton-miles, and a three per cent increase in carloadings. • Operating income increased 10 per cent to C$1,084 million. • The operating ratio improved by 0.8 of a point to 59.8 per cent. • Free cash flow totalled C$778 million for the first nine months of 2013, compared with free cash flow of C$1,036 million in the comparable period of 2012. (1) Claude Mongeau, president and chief executive officer, said: "CN's agenda of Operational and Service Excellence delivered outstanding financial results for the quarter. All our key operating metrics improved, service levels remained solid and we reached new levels of safety in our train operations. "With continued focus on supply chain collaboration and solid execution, the CN team is determined to grow its business safely and efficiently at a pace faster than the overall economy and to meet its full-year 2013 financial outlook." (2) Foreign currency impact on results Although CN reports its earnings in Canadian dollars, a large portion of its revenues and expenses is denominated in U.S. dollars. As such, the Company's results are affected by exchange-rate fluctuations. On a constant currency basis that excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, CN's third-quarter 2013 net income would have been lower by C$14 million, or C$0.03 per diluted share. (1) Third-quarter 2013 revenues, traffic volumes and expenses The eight per cent rise in third-quarter revenues was mainly attributable to higher freight volumes due to strong energy markets, market share gains, as well as growth in the North American economy; the positive translation impact of the weaker Canadian dollar on U.S.-dollar-denominated revenues; freight rate increases; and the impact of a higher fuel surcharge as a result of year-over-year increases in applicable fuel prices and higher volumes. Revenues increased for petroleum and chemicals (17 per cent), intermodal (13 per cent), metals and minerals (11 per cent), forest products (eight per cent), and automotive (seven per cent). Revenues declined for grain and fertilizers (three per cent) and coal (one per cent). Carloads increased by three per cent while revenue ton-miles, measuring the relative weight and distance of rail freight transported by CN, increased four per cent over the same quarter in 2012. Rail freight revenue per revenue ton-mile, a measurement of yield defined as revenue earned on the movement of a ton of freight over one mile, increased four per cent over the third quarter of 2012, driven by freight rate increases and the positive translation impact of the weaker Canadian dollar on U.S.-dollar-denominated revenues, partly offset by an increase in the average length of haul. Operating expenses increased seven per cent in the third quarter of 2013, mainly due to the negative translation impact of the weaker Canadian dollar on U.S.- dollar-denominated expenses, higher labor and fringe benefits expense, higher depreciation and amortization, as well as increased purchased services and material expense.

text: Shatner And Khan Together Again. Did Abrams Save The Best For Star Trek 2?Meredith Woerner5/18/09 10:00amFiled to: Star TrekJ.J. AbramsMoviesKhanWilliam Shatner118EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink We know J.J. Abrams tried to for a William Shatner cameo in his new Star Trek, but it never worked out. But Abrams is leaving the door open for future cameos. And Khan's invited too. To be fair, Abrams isn't saying that Shatner will be in the next movie. (And it's early enough that if interviewers asked, "Could Gracie the whale and Squire Trelaine dance together in the next movie?" Abrams' response would probably be, "Maybe.") But still, this is the first indication from Abrams that a long-awaited Shatner cameo could happen in the next movie. And he even has a rationale for it. Advertisement Advertisement Abrams told MTV:"The point of creating this independent timeline is to not have the restrictions we had coming into this one. And one of those restrictions was that Kirk was dead."The second name that came up was whether or not they'd be bringing back the most beloved villain in all Trekkerdom, Khan.As for Khan, many people believe that since Kirk never stranded him on Ceti Alpha V, the character would no longer be the same villain we saw in Star Trek 2. But Abrams argues that it is still possible to feature Khan as the villain in the Trek sequels: "[Kirk and Khan] exist - and while their history may not be exactly as people are familiar with, I would argue that a person's character is what it is. Certain people are destined to cross paths and come together, and Khan is out there … even if he doesn't have the same issues."Well at least it's good to know that they are toying with the idea of bringing him back. I feel like no matter the time rift, Kirk and Khan are destined to be enemies. If not in one way, then in another.Reply118 repliesLeave a reply

Story highlights
- India's Basunti retreat is located in the Kangra Valley, one of the most spiritual regions of India
- Acclaimed Anusara yoga teacher conducts annual 10-day yoga sessions at Basunti
- Wildlife includes a leopard, mongoose, snakes, scorpions, butterflies, birds and fish
Although I know my downward dog from my one-legged king pigeon pose, I'm relatively new to yoga.
Yet even almost breaking my nose while attempting a handstand wasn't enough to take away the enjoyment of attending a 10-day yoga retreat in the Himalayan foothills.
The Basunti retreat in Himachal Pradesh, north India, is set in a wildlife reserve in the Kangra Valley and offers immersion into one of the most spiritual regions of India.
It's home to a leopard, mongoose, snakes, scorpions, butterflies, birds and sole fish, to name a few resident creatures.
David Butterworth, co-owner of the retreat with his wife Izzy, is the resident storyteller.
In one of his many animal-themed Basunti anecdotes, Butterworth explains how he once saw a sole fish jump out of a pond and snatch a spotted dove in flight.
Though yoga retreats are on offer year-round, one of the best times to go to Basunti is October, when Bridget Woods Kramer is visiting. (This year, she'll be at Basunti October 3-12.)
Kramer is one of the world's most acclaimed instructors of Anusara yoga -- a practice that focuses on the heart and individual ability of each student.
Finding inner strength in the Kangra Valley
The Basunti day starts at 7 a.m. with a two-hour yoga session in the thatched shala facing the peaceful waters of the Kangra Valley.
At the entrance stands a striking brass statue of the Hindu god Shiva, a symbol of strength.
Practice begins gradually, with a talk by Kramer about Hindu gods and goddesses that resonate with yogic teachings and the benefits of yoga.
A herd of cows quietly makes its way past, giving us curious glances as we twist and turn and try to maintain our balance.
Kramer says the need to stand tall and strong in yoga translates into everyday life: "It's a reminder to stand tall in the face of fear."
She caters to all levels, encouraging partner work or individual practice.
Students on my retreat range from complete beginners to new or accomplished yoga teachers.
Although I come crashing down on the marble floor while attempting a handstand, by the next attempt, and with a lot of encouragement from Kramer, I feel I could maintain the position for ages.
Well, at least two seconds and with the support of three people.
What I come to realize is that these seemingly acrobatic poses require self belief and confidence; the harder the pose, the more I have to silence my fears and gather resilience from within -- which makes me feel stronger on the whole.
"I could tell you could do it," Kramer says, reassuringly. "I knew you were just feeling scared."
Before the day's second two-hour yoga session in the evening, we climb to the top of Basunti's main building roof, accompanied by religious chanting and traditional drumming from the local temple during evening prayers.
The roof is encircled by plants and trees, all enclosed by Himalayan peaks, which gradually fade as the sun sets and night falls.
Evening practice focuses on breathing techniques -- something that sounds simple enough but that we take for granted in everyday life.
Using exercises to ease and open up areas of the chest and back change the way we feel, our posture and allows energy to flow freely through our bodies.
Homegrown produce and ancient treasures
After a physically challenging but awakening session, a bell signals dinnertime, accompanied by the chanting of crickets, while guests mingle on the verandah.
Basunti provides freshly prepared meals using local produce and has its own well.
Visitors can try Basunti's homegrown lemons, aloe vera plants and traditional Indian neem plant, known for its effective healing properties.
Orange, mango and papaya trees are also on the grounds.
After a few days of lounging at Basunti, it's easy to forget you're in vibrant India.
A boat ride in the nearby Maharana Pratap Sagar lake, a trip to the Dalai Lama's residence of McLeod Ganj, where he often gives talks, or a visit to the rock temples of Masroor, a few hours drive away, are reminders of the diversity outside the retreat's walls.
Basunti will also arrange visits to a local shawl shop, which has beautiful original designs that make the perfect gifts.
The Kangra Valley itself is steeped in history.
"The earliest settlers would have been Harappans from the Indus Valley civilization, evidence of this I have found when the water level recedes and the banks are exposed," says Butterworth.
Treasures he's uncovered include Grey Ware pottery from around 1100-800 BC, as well as coins from the Mauryan dynasty through to the Mughal Empire and East India Company.
Butterworth's family originates from the British Midlands, but he's the seventh generation born in India.
"I'm a good Punjabi boy!" he laughs.
Butterworth built the retreat himself using local laborers and resources.
Sitting on what was originally a corn and winter wheat field, the construction of Basunti began in 2006.
Today, it embraces the surroundings with wide, open spaces in between the buildings which contain beautifully designed, well appointed rooms.
Getting there
The Basunti retreat is about a three and a half hour drive from Amritsar -- a private car collects visitors from the airport.
Guests can also stay in Amritsar and ask to be picked up from their hotel.
Yoga retreats are held throughout the year, hosted by teachers from around the world who specialize in a variety of styles.
Basunti also hosts regular painting, fishing and photography retreats.
The Basunti website has the full 2014 schedule.

Strange game tonight at the Mohegan Sun Arena.
The nuts and bolts of it aren't strange. Kyle Palmieri scored two of his team's four unanswered goals in the first period, a second-period rally by WBS fizzled in the third and Syracuse came away with a 7-5 win. That's simple enough.
The weird part is Bryan Lerg said the first intermission was the most confident locker room of a team down four goals he's ever sat in. Coach John Hynes called the game a step in the right direction, even though his team was down 4-0 after one and 6-1 at the game's midpoint. He said if they play every game like that, they'll win more than they lose.
Were they right?
I guess we'll know more after games Friday at home vs. Hershey and Saturday at Binghamton.
Syracuse went up 1-0 on a play where J-F Jacques and Peter Holland won a puck in the left-wing corner on a forecheck and passed to Palmieri for a goal at the far post. The second Crunch goal was a nifty passing play by Matt Kennedy, John Mitchell and Rick Schofield. The third was a bad-angle wrister from Jacques along the goal line. On the fourth, Palmieri picked a corner on the power play.
The Penguins rallied for three goals in the last six minutes of the second period to make it 6-4.
Bryan Lerg broke an 11-game goal drought. He redirected in a Jason Williams pass from the left point, then Zach Sill stuffed in a greasy goal on the goal line, then Lerg scored on a fancy toe-drag move on the left wing.
If the second period had been five minutes longer, it might have been a different outcome. Intermission came at a terrible time for the Penguins.
The final shots were 54-18. Scott Munroe started and gave up three goals on three shots in less than 11 minutes. Brad Thiessen stopped 11 of 15 the rest of the way.
Those facts seem to indicate a goaltending problem. After all, Thiessen was pulled after giving up two goals on seven shots the previous game in Worcester.
I asked Thiessen that question — was there a goaltending problem tonight? — and here's what he said.
"It's not not a goaltending problem. It's our job to make saves. It doesn't look good. It doesn't feel good."
That's true.
But he also said, "I don't think we necessarily had a bad start. It's just the breakdowns that did happen ended up in pretty prime scoring chances, the first couple."
That's true too.
So I don't know what to make of that. Do you?
Anyway, the lineup changes I wrote about yesterday were as such: Geoff Walker, Brian Gibbons, Paul Thompson and Carl Sneep were healthy scratches. Alex Grant was too, but that's a little different because he's often scratched. Matt Rust, Ryan Schnell, Brandon DeFazio, Robert Bortuzzo and Alexandre Picard were in in their place.
It'll be interesting to see which of those scratched players are back Friday and which remain in the dog house.
Until then, Happy Thanksgiving everybody.
Bye for now,

This article was published by the Guardian (UK) today about how a journalist tracked his girlfriend using her cell phone.
For the past week I've been tracking my girlfriend through her mobile phone. I can see exactly where she is, at any time of day or night, within 150 yards, as long as her phone is on. It has been very interesting to find out about her day. Now I'm going to tell you how I did it...
I unplugged her phone and took it upstairs to register it on a website I had been told about. It looks as if the service is mainly for tracking stock and staff movements: the Guardian, rather sensibly, doesn't want me to tell you any more than that. I ticked the website's terms and conditions without reading them, put in my debit card details, and bought 25 GSM Credits for £5 plus vat.
Almost immediately, my girlfriend's phone vibrated with a new text message. "Ben Goldacre has requested to add you to their Buddy List! To accept, simply reply to this message with 'LOCATE'". I sent the requested reply. The phone vibrated again. A second text arrived: "WARNING: [this service] allows other people to know where you are. For your own safety make sure that you know who is locating you." I deleted both these text messages...
Now, the article neglects to go into much detail about which service the reporter used, and naturally, I was curious, so I did a little digging myself.
There are a few companies in the UK that provide a GSM cell phone tracking service. As far as I can tell, Accutracking and TrackMyKids.Com are the only companies in the US that provides a similar service. However, they both require your victim target mark girlfriend/boyfriend/love-interest to carry a Nextel Motorola phone. If they use another service, you may have to resort to more traditional, or more high-tech stalking methods.
If all else fails, just make them a mix CD of songs that mean something to you about them. That always works.

i have a 04 overland grand cherokee. my battary died and now the torque converter isnt locking up.
i have a 3 year -36k mile warranty. ive already paid my deductible and the shop has replaced all soloinids all sensors and the circuut pack inside the trans. no codes are being thrown no nothing. what could it be? |
Re: jeep tranny problem! plz help!
Since you have the overland, you should have the 4.7 with 5-45RFE tranny, right?
What was the reason in the first place that the solenoid pack and all sensors ( 2 x speed sensor and 1 line pressure sensor?) where changed? That the torque converter is not locking up, this just happened after the battery died? When the battery died, was anything special done to get the jeep working again (jumpstarting for example), or was the battery just changed right away? And are you sure that the torque converter is not locking up? |
Re: jeep tranny problem! plz help!
ok so in the begginning the battary was going bad and it was during the cold winter months. so sometimes it would start, sometimes it wouldnt. i jumped it off a couple times. just to get to work an back. and finally one night it went completly dead, i had a jump but couldnt keep it even running. next day i jumped it off. it would finally idle. so i drove it home. and then thats when the problem happen. it just wont go into overdrive. and my tranny has overdrive and 5th gear confused. so it should be overdrive/ fifth gear, my jeep thinks 5th/4th. so i took it to this shop and they replaced the stuff in the tranny to try and fix it. didnt change anything and they say they dont know how to fix it. so im going to take my jeep to a jeep dealer as soon as my warranty company gets it all straighted out with that shop that it isnt fixed.
Re: jeep tranny problem! plz help!
In your first post you where talking about no torque converter lock-up, but now about problems with overdrive. This are completely different things.
Both 4th and 5th gear are overdrive gears. If the tranny is shifting into wrong gear, it could be the transmission control module, input/output speed sensor (which where already changed as per your words), or even a TPS sensor. Due to the fact that all this happened after your battery problems, i would lean more towards the TCM. |
Re: jeep tranny problem! plz help!
i assume overdrive is when the torque converter locks up while in 5th gear. correct?
Re: jeep tranny problem! plz help!
Overdrive is the name for those gears, where the output speed from the transmission is higher then the input speed.
For the 5-45RFE tranny for examply, 3rd gear is direct gear= 1:1 4th gear = 0.75:1 and 5th = 0.67:1 So when overdrive is not disabled ( O/D light on instrument panel OFF), the tranny can go until 5th gear. In both 4th and 5th the torque converter can lock-up. (clutch in torque converter will be activated, to lock the torque converter input to the output, in this way preventing any slip and heat buildup and any losses due to this) With overdrive disabled ( OD light on instrument panel ON), the transmission goes until 3rd gear and torque converter will lock. |
Re: jeep tranny problem! plz help!
ohh okay. so my problem is when going it only goes to fifth gear. but then never actually goes into overdrive. thank you or explaining that to me
Re: jeep tranny problem! plz help!
Don't know if the fallowing helps…
I had my check engine light illumine. Flash code indicated that the torque converter wasn't locking up or slipping. I reset the check engine light and went on a road trip to L.A. Driving up the Grapevine, I experienced significantly less power than usual. Just as I crested the mountain, my Trans Over Temp light illumined. I pulled off and let things cool down. I made it back home without the Trans Over Temp light illumining again. Back home, Transmission shop dropped the tranny and discovered, yep you guessed it, torque converter was shot. Transmission shop replaced the torque converter, solenoid pack, fluid, and both filters. As a side note, I don't think the previous owner ever changed the ATF and filters, for the ATF was turning orange when I purchased the Jeep at 65K. Upon discovering this, I had the ATF and filters changed. No way of knowing if the lack or service lead to the torque converter's demise or not. |
Re: jeep tranny problem! plz help!
So when your tranny goes to 5th gear, overdrive is working ok. As mentioned before, 4th and 5th gear are overdrive. In both 4th and 5th gear the torque converter should lock-up finally. When you look at the rpm indicator, you can see a drop of 200-300 rpm when the torque converter locks up. It almost looks if you have an other gear.
Re: jeep tranny problem! plz help!
but before my rpms at 80 were 2450ish and now at 70 there 2450ish. so it just needs to lock up in ffth gear also i found out my spedo is 5mph slow from 25mph to 70. tire size is stock. i dont know lol |

Saturday morning notes: Cervelli staying positive • 03.05.11
Francisco Cervelli was pretty stunned yesterday. He said he woke up in the morning convinced his left foot was bruised and not broken — it was sore but not especially painful, there had been no significant swelling — but the news from the Yankees medical staff was a sobering reminder that spring training is not good for him.
Three of the past four years Cervelli's been injured in spring training, always on or around his birthday, which is tomorrow. When he wasn't hurt in spring of 2009, he was terribly sick leading up to the World Baseball Classic.
"I think I'm going to change my birthday," he said.
Cervelli turns 25 tomorrow, and a lot of family flew into Tampa to celebrate. This was supposed to be a good weekend. Instead, Cervelli came hobbling into the Yankees clubhouse on crutches.
"A little sad yesterday," Cervelli said. "But I talked to my mom. It's good when I have my family here. Today's different. I'm positive. A lot of people in the world, they don't have legs, they don't have arms. I'm healthy. I just have something in my foot, and it's going to be OK."
Is he confident his job will be waiting for him when the crutches are gone and the boot comes off?
"I hope, but if it's not, I'll fight again," Cervelli said. "This is me. You have to fight every year for something. I'm not going to cry because somebody is going to take my job. No. I'm going to charge back."
Here's Cervelli
• Andrew Brackman faced hitters this morning. He threw roughly 30 pitches in the bullpen, then threw 25 to Austin Krum and Brandon Laird. "It was good," Brackman said. "No problems." He hopes to pitch in a game within a few days.
• Warner Madrigal also threw live BP this morning. Freddy Garcia, Ivan Nova, Dellin Betances and Adam Warren threw sides.
• A lot of former Yankees roaming around in the Nationals clubhouse. Chad Gaudin is starting for Washington. He'll be pitching to Ivan Rodriguez, with Jerry Hairston Jr. playing center field. Alberto Gonzalez is on the Nationals bench. Former Yankees Chien-Ming Wang and Tyler Clippard are in camp with Washington but didn't make the trip.
• Scheduled to play off the bench: C Austin Romine, 1B Brandon Laird, 2B Kevin Russo, SS Doug Bernier, 3B Brad Suttle, LF Justin Maxwell, CF Melky Mesa, RF Colin Curtis, DH Greg Golson
• Available out of the bullpen: Joba Chamberlain, Dave Robertson, Romulo Sanchez, Ryan Pope, Robert Fish, Steve Garrison, Daniel Turpen, David Phelps and D.J. Mitchell
• Tomorrow's travelers today: The Yankees have a road game against the Astros in Kissimmee tomorrow. Phil Hughes starts for the Yankees, Brett Myers for Houston.
Pitchers who are making the trip: Brian Anderson, Steve Garrison, Phil Hughes, D.J. Mitchell, Hector Noesi, David Phelps, Andy Sisco, Adam Warren and Eric Wordekemper
Position players who are not making the trip: Francisco Cervelli, Jorge Posada, Austin Romine, Ronnie Belliard, Ramiro Pena, Jorge Vazquez, Brett Gardner, Curtis Granderson and Nick Swisher
The best of what's left • 12.21.10
The remaining free agent market is rich in two areas: Designated hitters and relief pitchers. The Yankees have no need for a DH, but I could see them dipping into that relief market one more time before spring training. Here's my 25-man roster using only remaining free agents. It's a stretch to say the least.
Johnny Damon, CF
Edgar Renteria, SS
Adrian Beltre 3B
Jim Thome, DH
Vladimir Guerrero, RF
Manny Ramirez, LF
Adam LaRoche, 1B

I've decided to punt on outfield defense. This is probably the worst defensive outfield ever assembled, so I'll just hope that everything is hit to third base.
Scott Podsednik, OF
Derrek Lee, 1B
Jerry Hairston Jr., UT
Josh Bard, C
Is it bad that a left fielder is my defensive replacement in center?
Andy Pettitte
Carl Pavano
Kevin Millwood
Chris Young
Brandon Webb
Obviously I don't want anything hit in the air, so I'll roll the dice with Webb's sinker in the No. 5 spot. Let's face it, a lot of things are going to have to right for this team anyway. As for who gets the nod for the No. 1 spot in the rotation, I think I know my audience.
Rafael Soriano
Grant Balfour
Brian Fuentes
Kevin Gregg
Jon Rauch
Arthur Rhodes
Brad Penny
I figure I'll need someone who can throw more than one inning at a time, so I'll take shot on Penny in the bullpen. Added bonus: It might keep him healthy.
Other teams are actually doing stuff • 12.13.10
Believe it or not, as we approach the end of Day 4 of the Cliff Lee Watch, other teams are actually making small moves here and there. Don't they know nothing else is supposed to be happening right now?
• Hideki Matsui is on the verge of a one-year deal with the Athletics. That lineup needs some sort of pop, and Matsui looks like their everyday designated hitter.
• Dustin Moseley has finalized his $900,000 deal with the Padres. Great signing for him, and probably a good one for San Diego. Despite what the linked AP story says, Moseley did not spend, "the previous four seasons in the Los Angeles Angels." That's wrong on many levels.
• Apparently my friend Marc Carig didn't get the memo about Yankees reporters asking nothing but Cliff Lee questions until Lee signs. Marc reports that the Yankees have checked on Jerry Hairston Jr.
• Buried in this story from Ken Rosenthal is a note that the Dodgers might consider Bill Hall for their everyday left field job. I've never really bought Hall as a legitimate option for the Yankees, and an everyday opportunity in Los Angeles would make Hall even less likely for the Yankees.
• Baseball America has updated its minor league transactions, including a few familiar names: David Winfree signed with the Diamondbacks, Brian Bruney signed with the White Sox, Omir Santos signed with the Tigers, and Wilkin de la Rosa signed with the Dodgers.
• Speaking of the Bruney signing, who was the winner of last winter's Bruney trade? I'd say the Dodgers, because they lost Jamie Hoffmann a team that was never going to keep him. The Yankees finished somewhere in the middle, if only because they didn't have to pay Bruney. Washington lost. Definitely.

happy boxing day, therese! | |
Mon. 12/26/11 12:30am
there was a bit during the thermonuclear freakout in the middle of "little honda" where james actually appeared to be playing an AMPLIFIER, pounding on it to rattle the reverb and shaking the whole cabinet around. even as a yo la tengo noisefest goes, that was on a whole other level. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 12:30am
Little Honda was BANANAS, Dave. YLT gave us all a gift. Happy Boxing Day to YOU, Kurt! | |

For the sake of science, I am listening via three methods. You speak first on the radio, then on iTunes, then on the app. Am shutting off two of these before I go mad and/or incur copyright infringement claims from "Seven Second Delay." | |
Mon. 12/26/11 1:10am
And I've been waiting for planes at Grand Central! | |
Mon. 12/26/11 1:18am
Jack, I appreciate your commitment to science!!! Which method remains? | |
Mon. 12/26/11 1:22am
Thank you, Therese! Since i am remaining on the computer, i have chosen iTunes in an effort to conserve electricity. Also, I am wearing a lab coat. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 1:24am
I would expect nothing less! | |
Mon. 12/26/11 1:25am
what's all this then? | |
Mon. 12/26/11 1:28am
Hello to you, Mr. M! | |
Mon. 12/26/11 1:34am
Saw Scratch during he Dubfest. He's on the sober tip, sill CRAY. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:09am
These last three songs have been awesome | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:11am
That Lindsey Buckingham song is far better than I expected it would be. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:24am
Post-Mac, it seems like every decade or so Buckingham delivers a top-quality tune. This time, maybe he knew he'd get a LITTLE more attention because of that recurring SNL bit. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:27am
This is everybit as good as Holiday Road. And Bill Hader's Buckingham is one of my favorite things about those SNL sketches. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:29am
Yup, I love it every time Hader's Buckingham realizes he can't stay mad at the host. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:29am
Bill Hader is the best thing about SNL period | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:29am
...but he's Back In Mac, like Ac/DC. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:29am
Hopefully the zealous graphic designer who worked on Buckingham's album cover will be shown as much mercy as Lindsay does to Kenan Thompson | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:32am
Ha! Is that your holiday wish, Roger? Peace on Earth, good will to graphic designers who don't know when to leave well enough alone? | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:33am
Is that too much to ask on Boxing Day? | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:34am
Musikoffstein is correct. Let's refer to the era as Mac Classic then, with no apologies to the late Mr. Jobs. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:35am
Remember how Vito Corleone couldn't refuse any requests made on Connie's wedding day? Boxing Day is like that for graphic designers. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:39am
Unless they used comic sans. That is unforgivable 365 days a year | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:39am
Chop Scott:
Therese! Super Holiday wishes to you, I'm always listening...Cheers!!! | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:43am
Yes, the Comic Sans Clause is duly noted. Hi Chop Scott! Glad you're out there. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:47am
Cosmic Santa Clause? Huh? What? | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:47am
Yes, starring Tim Allen. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:48am
Tim Allen, wearing his buzz lightyear costume as well | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:56am
SR is one of those bands people tell me I am supposed to like that I don't really know. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 2:59am
I've never been able to make up my mind about them. I only have one of their albums. I don't dislike them, but the album I have I seldom listen to. | |
Mon. 12/26/11 3:00am
Merry (late) Christmas T-Zero :) | |
Mon. 12/26/11 3:02am
Heh. To you and all as well, Julie. I've been listening, but was preoccupied with tweaking a database to comment. | |

Hack Sabbath
OK, you're hip, but face it: Hasidic Jews are hipper. They moved to Williamsburg before you did, they were into Kabbalah before Madonnawas, andas artist Elliott Malkin's eRuv: A Street History in Semacode (dziga.com/eruv/index.php) makes elegantly clearthey were master map hackers at least a century before Google Maps opened its code and made 2005 the most happening year in cartography since, oh, 1492.
eRuv's hero is Rabbi Yehoshua Siegel, who in 1907 used a pretty cool map hack to free Lower East Side Hasidim from strict rules against carrying objects outdoors on Sabbath. Siegel declared the entire East Side a single private residence, in effect, bounded by an eruvor symbolic "wall"made up of waterfront on three sides and, on the fourth, "a door frame like none other": the Third Avenue elevated train. The el closed in 1955, but Malkin has brought the old eruv back to ghostly life, plastering the former train route with camera-readable barcode links to his site. Point and shoot your Web-ready phone cam at an eRuv sticker in Chinatown, say, and thephone will fetch you local maps and images from the days when the el defined an urban reality both physical and ritual.
"Psychogeography," the Situationists called it: a counterofficial mapping of the urban landscape, attuned to its effects on hearts, minds, and habits. In Situationism's 1960s heyday, aimless strolling was both the means and product of research, actual maps in those days being too static. But the recent explosion of Google Maps hacksfrom narrow obsessions like the Where's Wilco tour map to communal atlases like Tagzaniasuggests a proper psychocartography may now be at hand. Failing that, it proves at least that the Internet is finally catching up with the Talmud in its cartographic sophistication, moving on from maps that give directions to maps that, at last, also take them.

All were prepared specifically for this book. Seven of the 24 lectures are new to this edition.

When we look at the first seven years of a child's life, we see that the young child learns through doing. The child wants to move, explore, create. A natural impulse to imitate the world about them propels children to action. Imitation through play of what is meaningful and true in life is the most important activity for a young child. The Waldorf teacher strives to create an environment worthy of the child's imitation, and to value and nurture the child's innate capacity for wonder, reverence, and awe. The simple toys, the beautiful books, the soft color of the room, the nourishing, healthful food, the poems, stories, and songs are seeds planted now which will spring forth in later life.
Waldorf early childhood education provides a protective and nurturing environment where imagination and creativity flourish. Children participate in supervised outdoor play and explorations, singing, games, storytelling, puppetry, painting, coloring, beeswax modeling, sewing, cleaning, baking, gardening, and seasonal crafts. By learning through play, and through participating in activities which are part of life, they develop listening skills, fine motor skills, social skills, concentration, and other skills necessary for academic success. But more importantly, they develop a love of learning, an appreciation of beauty, and a strong connection to the world in which we live.

Your life on this earth boils down to nothing but choices. Your experience is governed by only one of two choices. Do you choose love, or do you choose fear? Look back on your life and remember past situations you were in. Did the bad situations stem from fear? Did the good situations stem from love?
Begin to live in love, see that what is going on today is nothing more than a transition from a way of dominance and conquering, to a way of love and universal order. The old doctrines and dogmas of man made religion have surfaced in order for the people of the planet seeking truth to see that religions are the primary reason why there is so much fear guilt and poverty in the world today.
Religions have created through illusion, a designed thought form. That of greater and lesser beings on this planet. Those chosen and those not chosen. We are all chosen, religions have created an elite secret order of priests and kings over the centuries to dominate and enslave the ones they see as lesser.
The end of world dominance will truly unfold when religions are cast off and people begin to see each other as equal. The awareness of love, light, and equality stemming from the universal source transcends any dogma, and holds true.
Religions are all flawed in the core doctrines, the doctrines exclude dimensional realities, frequencies and thought manifestations encompassed within the light held by all beings, there is no universal oneness in religion. Religions have brought on scarcity as a primary thought form, not abundance. Material abundance are key selling points for religion, not universal abundance.
The reversal from a positive field to a negative field through belief systems was the prime objective, in turn destroying human equality. By establishing scarcity and a feeling of inequality in the minds of humans people are kept imprisoned and unaware of their true nature of reality and their own creative potential. Right now the whole structure of our world is being challenged and changed. An influx of light energy is hitting the planet causing a mass reconnecting or remembering of your true infinite self.

Exciting changes in Adelaide Posted on - Monday, February 25, 2013
The team at Adelaide Paringa are excited about the changes to Adelaide in 2013. More than $1.2 billion is being spent on Adelaide's Riverbank including a footbridge across the Torrens Lake. Cricket fans heading to the Ashes Test in December will be able to cross the new $40 million Footbridge to Adelaide Oval. Other works on the Riverbank include pedestrian linkages, offices and bistro facilities to be integrated in the Festival Centre complex.
Rundle Mall is also going to be redeveloped to create more space. Already the changes have commenced with more seating, greenery and bicycle racks.
Bank Street connecting Hindley Street and North Terrace is also going to experience some significant changes. This will include making the street bicycle friendly, adding more landscaping and increase seating. The transformation to Leigh Street last year was a huge success and we hope Bank Street becomes just as vibrant.
Adelaide Paringa is less than 5 minutes walk from all these exciting transformations so be sure to check them out on your next visit to Adelaide.

Helen Donath (Soprano)
Born: July 10, 1940 - Corpus Christi, Texas, USA
The American soprano, Helen Donath (née Erwin), stemmed from a family originally Armenian-Syrian. When she was 14, she started studying at the Corpus Christi College and continued her studies with Paola Nivikova, in New York (the famous singing teacher whose pupils include outstanding singers as Nicolai Gedda). Helen Donath debuted very early (1958) as a concert and Lieder singer in New York. In 1961 she came to Europe and became a member of the Opernstudio in Cologne until 1963, during which time she sang roles as Liu in Turandot, Julia in Blacher's Romeo und Julia, and Micaela in Carmen. In 1961 she became a member of Staatstheater Hannover (the Hanover Opera House), to which she belonged until 1968, and had great success as Pamina in Die Zauberflöte and as Jeanne in Die Vorlobung in San Domingo. There she married the Kapellmeister and choir coach Klaus Donath. Appearances followed in Spain, Austria, Holland, Switzerland and England. In 1966 she signed a contract with the Bayerische Staatsoper, Munich, for guest performances, and a great career developed, not only on the opera stage, but also in the concert hall. Helen Donath's international career in effect began in 1967, when she sang Pamina in Die Zauberflöte at the Salzburg Festival with great success, returning next year in the same role. She was often to be heard in the Salzburg Festival from 1967 to 1976, both in W.A. Mozart operas and in Lieder evenings and in oratorios and concerts. In 1967 she sang the soprano part in the Coronation Mass by W.A. Mozart, which was performed in the Vatican under the direction of Herbert von Karajan; appeared at the Edinburgh Festival also under the his baton in the J.S. Bach's Magnificat (BWV 243) and also performed Felix Mendelssohn's Lobgesang Symphony at the Royal Festival Hall. She was a regular member of the Vienna Staatsoper from 1970-1990. She sang in Don Giovanni, Freischütz, Rosenkavalier, and Meistersinger. Finally in 1991 she sang at the Metropolitan Opera. Helen Donath has appeared at La Scala, the Royal Opera House Covent Garden, the Vienna Staatsoper, Bayerische Staatsoper, Deutsche Oper Berlin, Berlin Staatsoper, the Dresden Opera, Hamburg Staatsoper, the Metropolitan Opera, and in Paris, Tokyo, and throughout the USA. Her recent (2004) American engagements have included performances as Despina in Così fan tutte, Donna Anna in Don Giovanni, Eva in Die Meistersinger, the Governess in The Turn of the Screw, and Susanna in Le nozze di Figaro in Seattle, Los Angeles, Miami, Atlanta, and Washington, D.C. Recently, in Detroit, she performed another of her signature roles, the Marschallin in Der Rosenkavalier, with her husband, conductor-pianist Klaus Donath, on the podium, and their son, Alexander Donath, as stage director. Helen Donath is known as an excellent interpreter of Lied in which she was accompanied by her husband, the pianist and conductor, Klaus Donath, on the piano. She was internationally renowned as an oratorio singer, and sang many of the soprano parts in Helmuth Rilling's early recordings of J.S. Bach's Cantatas. Helen Donath can be heard in her lyric soprano voice, which also included a series of parts in the coloratura repertoire, on many record labels. On Decca (Orpheus of Gluck, the page Oscar in Verdi's Ballo in Maschera, Sophie in Rosenkavalier, Freischütz, Lustige Weiber von Windsor by Nicolai), HMW (W.A. Mozart's Don Giovanni, Meistersinger), Telefunken (Incoronozione di Poppea), Phillips (W.A. Mozart's La finta Giardiniera, Purcell's Dido and Aeneas, Haydn's La vera constanza, Benjamin Britten's The Return of the Screw, J.S. Bach's Weihnachts-Oratorium (BWV 248), DGG (Pfitzner's Palestrina, W.A. Mozart's Lucio Silla, Lustiger Weiber von Windsor, Messiah), Electrola (Fidelio, Gluck's Der betrogener Kadi, Schubert's Die Zwillingsbrüder, Strauss' Arabella, Kienzl's Der Evangelmann, Schubert's Der vierjähriger Posten, Lehár's Friederike, George Frideric Handel's Judas Maccabeus), Teldec (F. Mendelssohn's Elias), Eurodisc (W.A.
